 11 








 (22) if such Securities will not be registered under the Securities Act, the
section of, or rule or regulations under, the Securities Act in reliance upon which the Securities will be offered and sold, any legends related thereto to be placed on the face of the certificates evidencing such Securities and any restrictions,
provisions, certification or evidentiary requirements, or procedures governing transfers or exchanges of any such Securities or interests therein; and 

(23) any other terms of such Securities, including any terms that may be required or advisable under the Securities Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture).

Certificate referred to above or as set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto. If so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate or set forth in a supplemental indenture referred to above, the terms of such
Securities to be issued from time to time may be determined by or pursuant to such Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture, as the case may be. All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except

of a series are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with existing Securities of a series, such additional Securities will have a separate CUSIP number and ISIN. 

SECTION 2.04. Global Securities. 
 If
any Securities of a series, in whole or in part, are issuable as one or more Global Securities, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), then, notwithstanding clause (10) of
Section 2.03(b) and the provisions of Section 2.05(a), any such Global Security shall represent such of the Securities Outstanding as shall be specified therein or endorsed or notated by the
Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) thereon or on a schedule thereto, and any such Global Security may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Securities Outstanding from time to time specified therein or
endorsed or notated by the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) thereon or on a schedule thereto and that the aggregate amount of Securities Outstanding represented thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to
reflect any exchanges, transfers, redemptions, repayments or other increases or decreases in the amount of Securities Outstanding represented thereby, which increase or decrease may be endorsed or notated on such Global Security or on a schedule
thereto. Any endorsement or notation on a Global Security or on a schedule to a Global Security to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Securities Outstanding represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the
Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified in such Global Security or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to

 Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.06 and, if applicable, Section 2.08, the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) shall deliver and redeliver any Global Security in the manner and upon instructions
given by the Person or Persons specified in such Global Security or in the applicable Company Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 2.06 or Section 2.08 has been, or simultaneously is,
delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to an endorsement or notation on a schedule to or delivery or redelivery of a Global Security shall be in writing but need not be represented by a Company Order and need not be accompanied by
an Opinion of Counsel. 

  
 12 








 The provisions of the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) shall apply to
any Securities issuable as one or more Global Securities if such Global Security or Securities were never issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) the Global
Security or Securities together with written instructions (which need not be represented by a Company Order and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby,
together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 2.02(a). 
 SECTION 2.05. Denominations;
Record Date; Payment of Interest. 
 (a) The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such form and in such denominations as shall
be specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b). In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Securities of a series, such Securities shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral
multiple thereof. 
 (b) The term “record date” as used with respect to an interest payment date (if any) for any Security shall
mean such day or days as shall be specified in such Security as contemplated by Section 2.03(b); or, if no such day or days are so specified, such term shall mean (1) for any Global Security, the close of business on
the business day preceding such interest payment date or (2) for any Definitive Security, the fifteenth calendar day preceding such interest payment date, whether or not such record date is a business day. 

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) with respect to the Securities of a series, the Person
in whose name any Security is registered at the close of business on the record date for such interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on such interest payment date notwithstanding the cancellation of such
Security upon any registration of transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to such record date and prior to such interest payment date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the
interest due on such interest payment date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered on a subsequent record date established by notice given to the extent and in the manner set forth in
Section 15.04 by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of such Securities in default not less than 15 calendar days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than five calendar days
preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest, or in any other lawful manner acceptable to the Trustee. 
 (c) Unless otherwise
specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b), the principal of and any premium, interest or other amounts payable on the Securities of a series shall be payable at the Corporate Trust Office or any other office or agency
maintained pursuant to Section 4.02 in a Place of Payment for such Securities; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, payment with respect to such Securities may be made by wire transfer or by
check mailed to the holders of the Securities entitled thereto at their last addresses as they appear on the Security Register, and provided, further, that if such Securities are represented by one or more Global Securities, payment
may be made pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary as in effect at such time. 

  
 13 








 SECTION 2.06. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating of Securities. 

The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by one of its Authorized Officers and may, but need not be, attested by the Secretary
or any Assistant Secretary of the Company. Such signatures may be the manual or facsimile (including stamped) signatures of the current or any future such officers. Any Security may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the
actual date of the execution of such Security, shall be an Authorized Officer or other proper officer of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such officer. Securities bearing the manual or
facsimile signature of an individual who was, at the actual date of the execution of such Securities, an Authorized Officer or other proper officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such
office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such office at the date of such Securities. 
 The
Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order, authenticate Securities executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for original issue and deliver such Securities to or upon order of the
Company, all as set forth in or pursuant to such Company Order. In authenticating the Securities of a series and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall have received and
(subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02) shall be fully protected in relying on: 
 (i) The Board Resolution,
Officer’s Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto establishing the terms and the form of such Securities pursuant to Section 2.03; 

(ii) An Officer’s Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 15.05; and 

(iii) One or more Opinions of Counsel, either addressed to the Trustee or permitting reliance by the Trustee, substantially to
the following effect: 
 (A) the form of the Securities has been established in conformity with the provisions of this
Indenture; 
 (B) either (i) the terms of the Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this
Indenture or (ii) in the case of Securities subject to a Periodic Offering, when the terms of such Securities have been established pursuant to the procedures as may be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate or a Company Order, such terms
will have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (C) such Securities, when executed and
delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture, and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to the conditions
specified in the Opinion of Counsel, will be valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms. 
 Such
Opinion or Opinions of Counsel may be subject to or qualified by the operation or effect of certain laws and equitable principles and the conditions, limitations and exceptions as set forth in such Opinion or Opinions of Counsel. 

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this Section 2.06 if
the Trustee, being advised by its counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors, board of trustees or executive committee shall determine that such action would expose the
Trustee to personal liability to existing holders of Securities issued pursuant to this Indenture. 

  
 14 








 With respect to the Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the documents required
to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.06 must be delivered only once at or prior to the first request of the Company for authentication and delivery of the Securities of such series. Such documents
delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.06 may include appropriate modifications to the information otherwise required to be set forth in such document to account for the nature of such Periodic Offering, if
applicable. Further, with respect to any Company Order relating to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, (a) such Company Order may be delivered to the Trustee prior to the delivery to the Trustee of such Securities for
authentication and delivery, (b) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount, if any, established for such
Securities or such series, pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order, (c) the terms of such Securities shall be established as contemplated by
Section 2.03 pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures, and (d) if provided for in such procedures, such Company Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic
instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the documents delivered pursuant to this
Section 2.06 in connection with the first request of the Company to the Trustee to authenticate Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering unless and until such documents have been superseded or revoked. In
connection with the authentication and delivery of Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that the Company’s instructions to authenticate and deliver such Securities do not violate any
rules, regulations or orders of any governmental agency or commission having jurisdiction over the Company. 
 Unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.03(b), each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication or, in the case of a Security evidenced by a master Global Security, the date of original issue of such Security as endorsed on
such master Global Security or as indicated on the schedule thereto (except as otherwise provided by Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto). 

SECTION 2.07. Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Securities. 

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or such other office or agency to be designated in
accordance with Section 4.02, a register (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and transfers
of Securities as provided in this Indenture. The Trustee hereby is appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as provided in this Indenture; provided that the Company may,
pursuant to Section 2.03(b), designate and appoint a different entity, including an affiliate of the Company, to act as “Security Registrar” for purposes of the Securities of a series. The Security Register shall
be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. If the Trustee does not act as Security Registrar with respect to the Securities of a series, the Company shall ensure that at all
reasonable times the Security Register for such Securities shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of the Securities of a series at such office or agency maintained pursuant to
Section 4.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities representing such
Securities so presented of any authorized denominations for an equal aggregate principal amount and having like form, tenor and payment and other terms, and the Security Registrar shall register the same on the Security Register. 

  
 15 








 (b) At the option of the holder, Definitive Securities may be exchanged for other Definitive
Securities having like tenor and payment and other terms of any authorized denominations and of an equal aggregate principal amount. Definitive Securities to be exchanged shall be surrendered at any such office or agency maintained pursuant to
Section 4.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor the Definitive Security or Securities that the holder making the
exchange shall be entitled to receive, and the Security Registrar shall register the same on the Security Register. 
 (c) All Securities
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration
of transfer or exchange. 
 Each Security presented for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption or payment, as the case may be,
shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee)
duly executed, by the holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for the
registration of transfer or exchange 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 therewith, other than exchanges pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture not involving any transfer. 
 Neither the Company nor the Security Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any such Securities to be redeemed for a period of 15 calendar days before the delivery of the notice of redemption for such Securities, or (2) to exchange or register the transfer of (i) any Security selected,
called or being called for redemption, except, in the case of any such Securities to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be so redeemed or (ii) any Security as to which the holder has exercised any right to require the Company to
repay such Security, except in the case of any such Securities to be repaid in part, the portion thereof not to be so repaid. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided for in the Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), Definitive Securities shall be issued to all holders of interests in a Global Security in
exchange for such interests only if (1) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act or otherwise authorized under applicable
law or regulation, and, in either case, a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 calendar days after receiving such notice or becoming aware of the foregoing; (b) after the date of original issuance of such Securities of
a series, the Depositary and/or relevant clearing system has ceased to operate as such and no alternative depositary and/or clearing system approved by the applicable holders is available; or (c) the Company, in its sole discretion, elects to
issue Definitive Securities. If the holders of beneficial interests in a Global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Definitive Securities in the circumstances described in this Section 2.07(d) or as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), 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
or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) Definitive Securities executed by the Company in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the holder’s interests in such Global Security. On or after the earliest date on
which such interests may be so exchanged, in accordance with instructions given by the Company to the Trustee or the Depositary, as the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing), such Global Security shall be surrendered from time to time
by the Depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, or to the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee), to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for
Definitive Securities without charge to the holder, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in accordance with such instructions, in exchange for 

  
 16 








 
each portion of such Global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur for a
period of 15 calendar days before the delivery of any notice of redemption or the repayment date for such Securities, if any. Promptly following any such exchange in part, such Global Security should be returned by the Trustee or the Security
Registrar (if other than the Trustee) to the Depositary referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Definitive 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 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 defaulted interest as provided in Section 2.05, interest or defaulted interest, as the case may be, 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. 
 (e) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to
monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary
participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of,
this Indenture or such Security (to the extent provided for as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) and set forth in such Security in accordance with Section 2.07(f)), and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 (f) If, as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b), any Securities having restrictions on transfer or exchange are issued hereunder, such Securities and any interests therein may be transferred or exchanged only in accordance with the legend(s) placed on the
face of the certificates evidencing such Securities and/or such restrictions, procedures, certification or evidentiary requirements or other provisions of such Securities established as contemplated by Section 2.03(b),
unless eliminated by the Company, and to the extent required by the Securities Act. 
 SECTION 2.08. Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall, upon Company Order, authenticate and make
available for delivery, temporary Securities (typewritten, printed, or otherwise produced). Such temporary Securities, in any authorized denominations, shall be substantially in the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued,
in registered form and otherwise in the form and having the terms approved from time to time by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, with such omissions, insertions, substitutions and other variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities,
all as may be determined by the Company, but not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture or any provision of applicable law. 
 If
temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities in lieu
of which such temporary Securities were initially issued upon surrender of such temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 4.02 in a Place of Payment for such Securities for
the purpose of exchanges, without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a like
aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor, payment and other terms and aggregate principal amount. 

  
 17 








 Each temporary Security shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon
the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities. 
 SECTION 2.09. Mutilated, Destroyed,
Lost or Stolen Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor, form, and payment and other terms and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously used or in use for any other Security issued hereunder.

 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any Paying Agent 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, subject to the following paragraph, execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor, form, and payment and
other terms and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously used or in use for any other Security issued hereunder. 
 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 2.09, the Company may require 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. 

Each new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.09 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall
constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and any such new Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other such Securities duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this
Section 2.09 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 2.10. Cancellation. 
 All
Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, exchange or registration of transfer or for credit against any sinking fund payment, as the case may be, shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and
shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to
the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for 

  
 18 








 
any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 2.10 except as expressly provided by this Indenture. Any cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed
of in accordance with its customary procedures for the disposition of cancelled securities, and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of such disposal to the Company upon written request therefor. 

SECTION 2.11. Book-Entry Only System. 

If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 2.03(b) with respect to Securities represented by a Global Security,
any Securities may be issued initially in book-entry only form and, if issued in such form, shall be represented by one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, designated with respect thereto. So long as
such system of registration is in effect, (a) such Securities so issued in book-entry only form will not be issuable in the form of or exchangeable for Definitive Securities except as provided in Section 2.07(d)
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, as may be otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(b)), (b) the records of the Depositary will be determinative for all purposes and (c) neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any Paying Agent, Security Registrar or transfer agent for such Securities will have any responsibility or liability for (i) any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of owners of beneficial interests in such
Securities, (ii) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests, (iii) receipt of notices, voting and requesting or directing the Trustee to take, or not to take, or consenting to, certain actions
hereunder, or (iv) the records and procedures of the Depositary. 
 SECTION 2.12. Security Identification Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Securities may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and other similar numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the
Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and other similar 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 changes in the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and other similar numbers. 
 ARTICLE
THREE 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES; REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS 

SECTION 3.01. Redemption of Securities; Applicability of Section. 

Redemption of the Securities of a series as permitted or required by the terms thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such
Securities as specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b) hereof and the applicable provisions of this Article Three; provided, however, that if any provision of any such Securities shall conflict with any
provision of this Article Three, the provision of such Securities shall govern. In case the Company shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Securities of a series pursuant to this
Section 3.01, it shall fix a date for redemption in accordance with this Indenture and the terms of such Securities and notify the Trustee of the same at least two business days before the date on which notice of such
redemption is to be given, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 For purposes of this Article Three, the phrase
“Securities of a series” and any similar terms shall mean Securities having identical terms, except as to issue date, principal amount and, if applicable, the date from which interest begins to accrue, transfer restrictions or registration
rights. 

  
 19 








 SECTION 3.02. Notice of Redemption; Selection of Securities. 

Notice of redemption of Securities of a series 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, to the holders of such Securities in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 15.04. The Company or the Trustee, as the case may
be, shall give such notice of redemption at least 10 business days and not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption (or within such period as is otherwise specified for such Securities as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b)) to the holders of such Securities to be redeemed, as a whole or in part. Notice given in such manner shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice.
In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the holder of any such Security of a series designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
Security of a series. If the Company requests the Trustee to give any notice of redemption, it shall make such request at least two business days prior to the designated date for delivering such notice, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the
Trustee. 
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), each such notice of redemption shall
identify the Securities to be redeemed (including applicable CUSIP numbers, ISINs or other similar numbers, if applicable) and also shall specify (a) the date fixed for redemption, (b) the redemption price (or, if not then ascertainable,
the manner of calculation thereof) at which such Securities are to be redeemed, (c) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the principal amounts (and, in the case of Definitive Securities, the certificate
numbers) of such Securities to be redeemed, (d) the Place of Payment where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price and that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, and
(e) that interest (if any) accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in such notice, and that, upon the satisfaction of any conditions to such redemption set forth in the notice of redemption and unless the Company
defaults in making such redemption payment, on and after the date fixed for redemption, interest (if any) thereon or on the portions of such Securities of the series to be redeemed will cease to accrue. In addition, if such redemption is subject to
the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice of redemption shall describe each such condition and, if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or
all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice of redemption may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date stated in such notice, or by
the redemption date as so delayed. With respect to a redemption of Securities of a series that is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the Company shall notify the Trustee promptly of the satisfaction of such conditions
precedent. 
 In case any Securities of a series are to be redeemed in part, on and after the date fixed for redemption, upon surrender of
such Securities, such Securities will be cancelled and a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued and delivered without charge to the holder, or, if applicable, the decrease
in the amount of Securities Outstanding represented by a Global Security will be endorsed or notated thereon or on a schedule thereto by the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) in accordance with
Section 2.04. 
 On or before 10:00 a.m. (local time at the Place of Payment), or such other time as may be
specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section 3.02, or such other date and time as may be agreed by
the Trustee, any relevant Paying Agent and the Company, the Company will deposit in trust with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the redemption date all or any portion of the Securities of a
series so called for redemption at the appropriate redemption price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption. 

  
 20 








 If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company will give the Trustee
adequate written notice at least two business days in advance of the date on which notice of such redemption is to be given (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) as to the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such
series to be redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected
(a) with respect to Securities of a series issued in book-entry only form and evidenced by one or more Global Securities, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, or (b) with respect to Securities of a series
evidenced by Definitive Securities, in such manner as may be agreed by the Company and the Trustee not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date of redemption. The portion of the principal amount of Securities of a series so selected for partial
redemption and the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of such Securities shall be equal to the minimum authorized denomination for such Securities or any integral multiple thereof. 

SECTION 3.03. Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. 

If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, the Securities of a series or portions of Securities of a series with respect to
which such notice has been given shall, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions to the redemption as specified in the notice of redemption, become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption
price, together with any interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, and on and after such date fixed for redemption (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at the redemption price, together with any interest
accrued to such date fixed for redemption) interest, if any, on such Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease to accrue and, except as provided in Sections 6.06 and 12.02, such Securities shall cease
from and after the date fixed for redemption to be entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except the right to receive the redemption price thereof and
unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption. 
 On presentation and surrender of such Securities subject to redemption at the
Place of Payment and in the manner specified in such notice, such Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable redemption price, together with any interest accrued thereon to the date fixed
for redemption; provided that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), any payment of interest becoming due on or prior to the date fixed for redemption shall be payable to the holders of such
Securities registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record date, subject to the terms and provisions of Section 2.05. At the option of the Company, payment may be made by wire transfer or by check mailed
to the holders of the Securities entitled thereto at their last addresses as they appear on the Security Register, provided that, with respect to any Securities of a series represented by one or more Global Securities, payment may be made
pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary as in effect on such date fixed for redemption. 
 Any Security that is to be
redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (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 such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and upon such presentation, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the holder thereof, at the expense of the
Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so presented, or the Security so presented that continues to
represent the unredeemed portion of principal may be returned, if feasible, by the Trustee or the Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) to the Depositary as may be referred to in any instructions from the Company regarding the return of
such Security. 

  
 21 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each occasion on which Securities of a series represented by a
Global Security are redeemed in part pursuant to this Article Three, the resulting decrease in the amount of such Securities Outstanding represented thereby will be endorsed or notated thereon or on a schedule thereto by the Trustee or the
Security Registrar (if other than the Trustee) in accordance with Section 2.04. 
 SECTION 3.04. Repayment at the Option
of Holders. 
 The provisions of this Section 3.04 shall be applicable to Securities of a series that are
subject to repayment at the option of the holders thereof before their maturity, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) for the Securities of such series. The terms of the Securities of such series
may require a holder to request a minimum amount or number of Securities to be repaid on any date fixed for repayment. 
 Notice and
confirmation of a required repayment by the Company of Securities of a series to be repaid as a whole or in part at the option of the holders shall be given by each holder in the manner and at the time specified in the terms of such Securities
pursuant to Section 2.03(b). The notice of repayment from each such holder shall specify the principal amount or number of each Security of such series held by such holder to be repaid and that arrangements will be made for
the presentation and surrender of such Securities and that on and after said date, interest, if any, thereon or on the portions thereof to be repaid will cease to accrue. 

On or before the repayment date specified in the terms of the Securities as provided for in this Section 3.04, the
Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.03) an amount of money
sufficient to repay on the repayment date all the Securities of such series submitted for repayment at the appropriate repayment price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the date fixed for repayment. 

If notice of election for repayment has been given by each holder as provided in this Section, the Securities of the series or portions of
Securities of the series specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place set forth in the terms of such Securities at the applicable repayment price, together with interest accrued, if any, to the date fixed for
repayment, and on and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at the repayment price, together with interest accrued to such date, if any) interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so subject to
repayment shall cease to accrue, and, except as provided in Sections 6.06 and 12.02, such Securities shall, from and after the date fixed for repayment, cease to be entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the
holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except the right to receive the repayment price thereof and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for repayment. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place of
Payment specified in the terms of such Securities, those Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and purchased by the Company at the applicable repayment price, together with interest accrued thereon, if any, to the date fixed for
repayment; provided that any payment of interest becoming due on or prior to the date fixed for repayment shall be to the holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant record date subject to the terms and provisions of
Section 2.05 hereof.

 ARTICLE FOUR 

PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

SECTION 4.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and any interest and other amounts
payable (including any Additional Amounts, if provided for as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) for Securities of a series) on the Securities of a series at the place, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the
terms of such Securities and this Indenture. 
 SECTION 4.02. Offices for Notices and Payments, etc. 

As long as any of the Securities of a series remain Outstanding, the Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for such Securities an
office or agency where such Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where such Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of such Securities
and this Indenture may be served. 
 The Company will give to the Trustee notice of the location of each such office or agency and of any
change in the location thereof. In case the Company shall fail to maintain any such office or agency as required, or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof, presentations and surrenders of any
Securities may be made and notices and demands may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the same as its agent to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

The Company also from time to time may designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of a 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 its obligation to maintain an office or
agency in accordance with the requirements set forth above for any Securities for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the holders of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of
any such other office or agency. 
 With respect to any Global Security, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Security
as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the Place of Payment where such Global Security may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange,
or where successor Securities may be delivered in exchange therefor, provided, however, that any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary for such Global
Security shall be deemed to have been effected at the Place of Payment for such Global Security in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

SECTION 4.03. Provisions as to Paying Agent. 

(a) Whenever the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee with respect to the Securities of a series, it will cause such
Paying Agent 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 4.03: 

  
 23 








 (1) that it will hold sums held by it as such Paying Agent for the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor on such Securities) 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 and will notify the Trustee of the receipt of sums to be so held; 

(2) that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor on such Securities) to make any
payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities when the same shall be due and payable; and 

(3) that at any time when any such failure has occurred and is continuing, it will, upon the written request of the Trustee,
forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 (b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of
the persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay such principal (and premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided. The Company
will notify the Trustee promptly of any failure to take such action. 
 (c) Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents with
respect to any Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and
premium, if any, on) or any interest or other amounts so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium, interest or other amounts payable, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee)
the Company will notify the Trustee promptly of its action or failure so to act. 
 (d) Anything in this
Section 4.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to one or more or all Securities hereunder, or for any
other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust for such Securities by it or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 4.03, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts
herein contained, 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. 

(e) Anything in this Section 4.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in
this Section 4.03 is subject to the provisions of Sections 12.03 and 15.14.

Compliance. 
 The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, commencing on
April 30, 2019, a written statement signed by the Treasurer of the Company or an Authorized Officer of the Company or any Senior Vice President, Managing Director or other appropriate officer serving under the Treasurer of the Company and by
the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company stating, as to each signer thereof, that:

obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him or her and the nature and status thereof. 

SECTION 4.05. Waiver of Covenants. 

The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in this Indenture if, before or after the
time for such compliance, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Securities affected thereby, considered together as one class for this purpose, shall either waive such compliance in such instance or generally
waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the
duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 SECTION 4.06. Limitation on Sale or
Issuance of Capital Stock of Principal Subsidiary Bank. 
 Subject to the provisions of Article Eleven, the Company will not sell,
assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or permit the issuance of, or permit a subsidiary to sell, assign, transfer or dispose of, any shares of Capital Stock of, or any securities convertible into or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for
or purchase shares of, Capital Stock of, any Principal Subsidiary Bank or any subsidiary which owns shares of Capital Stock of, or any securities convertible into or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of Capital Stock
of, any Principal Subsidiary Bank, except:

required by law, to any person for the purpose of the qualification of such person to serve as a director; or 
 (b) any sale, assignment,
transfer or other disposition or issuance for not less than fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, such determination being evidenced by a Board Resolution, which determination shall be conclusive), if, after giving effect to
such disposition and to conversion of any shares or securities convertible into Capital Stock of a Principal Subsidiary Bank, the Company would own directly or indirectly not less than 80% of each class of the Capital Stock of such Principal
Subsidiary Bank (or any successor thereto); or 
 (c) any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition or issuance made in compliance with
an order of a court or regulatory authority of competent jurisdiction; or 
 (d) any sale by a Principal Subsidiary Bank (or any successor

owns, directly or indirectly, at least as great a percentage of each class of Capital Stock of such Principal Subsidiary Bank as it owned prior to such sale of additional shares; or 

(e) any sale by a Principal Subsidiary Bank (or any successor thereto) of additional securities convertible into shares of its Capital Stock to

 25 








 (f) any sale by a Principal Subsidiary Bank (or any successor thereto) of additional options,
warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Capital Stock to its stockholders at any price, so long as (1) prior to such sale the Company owns, directly or indirectly, options, warrants or rights, as the case may be, of the
same class and (2) immediately after such sale, the Company owns, directly or indirectly, at least as great a percentage of each class of such options, warrants or rights, as the case may be, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Capital Stock

reports, information and documents to the Trustee and transmission thereof to the holders is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the reports, information or

REMEDIES 
 SECTION 6.01. Events of
Default; Acceleration of Maturity. 
 Except as may otherwise be provided with respect to the Securities of a series as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b), “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of a series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it be
voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 

(a) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) such Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable
either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; 
 (b) default in
the payment of any installment of interest upon such Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; 

(c) a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case under
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or for any substantial part of its property,
or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; 

(d) the Company shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or
shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or similar official of the
Company or for any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or 
 (e) any other
Event of Default provided with respect to such Securities as contemplated by Section 2.03(b). 
 Unless otherwise
provided with respect to the Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), if an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) above shall have occurred and be continuing, and in each and every such
case, unless the principal amount of all such affected Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25 percent in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series affected
thereby then Outstanding hereunder, treated as a single class, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by securityholders) may declare the principal amount of all such affected Securities (or, with respect to


  
 28 








 
Original Issue Discount Securities, such lesser amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become
and shall be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in such Securities to the contrary notwithstanding, or, if an Event of Default described in clause (c) or (d) above shall have occurred and be continuing, and in
each and every such case, unless the principal of all Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25 percent in aggregate principal amount of all Securities then Outstanding
hereunder, treated as a single class, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by securityholders), may declare the principal of all Securities (or, with respect to Original Issue Discount Securities, such lesser amount as
may be specified in the terms of such Securities) to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Securities to the
contrary notwithstanding. 
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) with respect to the
Securities of a series, there shall be no rights of acceleration other than as described in the immediately preceding paragraph. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b) with respect to the Securities of a series, neither the Trustee nor any holders of such Securities shall have the right to accelerate the payment of such Securities, nor shall the payment of such Securities
be otherwise accelerated, as a result of a Covenant Breach. Further, for avoidance of doubt, if an Event of Default as described in Section 6.01(e) is specified for the Securities of a series, there will be no right to
accelerate payment of such Securities on the terms described in the immediately preceding paragraph unless such acceleration rights are granted specifically for such Securities as contemplated by Section 2.03(b). 

SECTION 6.02. Rescission and Annulment. 

The provisions in Section 6.01 are subject to the condition that if, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b) with respect to the Securities of a series, at any time after the principal of the affected Securities shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the
money due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest or other amounts payable on all such affected
Securities and the principal of (and premium, if any, on) (or, with respect to Original Issue Discount Securities, such lesser amount as may be specified in the terms of such affected Original Issue Discount Securities) all such affected Securities,
which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest (if any), at
the same rate as the rate of interest specified in such Securities (or, with respect to Original Issue Discount Securities, at the rate specified in the terms of such Securities for interest on overdue principal thereof upon maturity, redemption or
acceleration of such Securities, as the case may be), to the date of such payment or deposit, and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith, and any and all Events of Default or Covenant Breaches under the Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of such Securities
which shall have become due by acceleration, shall have been remedied; then and in every such case, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all such affected Securities then Outstanding, treated as a single class, by written
notice to the Company and the Trustee, may waive all Events of Default or Covenant Breaches with respect to all such affected Securities and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences with respect to all such affected Securities;
provided that no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or Covenant Breach or shall impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 29 








 In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such
proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission and annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the
securityholders, as the case may be, shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the securityholders, as the case may be, shall continue as though
no such proceedings had been taken. 
 SECTION 6.03. 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 any Securities when such interest becomes due and payable
and such default continues for a period of 30 calendar days, or 
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of or
premium, if any, on any Securities at the maturity thereof, including any maturity occurring by reason of a call for redemption or otherwise, 
 the Company
will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of such Securities, the whole amount that shall have become due and payable on such Securities for principal or premium, if any, and interest and other amounts
payable, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by such Securities; and, in addition thereto, such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

If an Event of Default or Covenant Breach occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its
rights and the rights of the securityholders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 SECTION 6.04. Trustee May File Proofs of
Claim. 
 In the case of the pendency of a 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 such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, premium, if
any, and any interest or other amounts payable owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the holders of Securities allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

  
 30 








 (ii) to collect and receive any money or other property payable or deliverable on
any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each holder of Securities to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the holders of Securities, to pay to the Trustee
any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06. To the extent that such payment of
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements, advances and other amounts out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all
distributions, dividends, moneys, securities and other property which the holders of the Securities may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan or reorganization or arrangements or otherwise. 

Nothing contained in this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
holder of Securities any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any holder of Securities in any such
proceeding. 
 SECTION 6.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

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

SECTION 6.06. Application of Money Collected. 

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Six shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by
the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, premium, if any, or any interest or other amounts payable, 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 under
Section 7.06; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for
principal of and premium, if any, on and any interest or other amounts payable on the Securities, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
amounts due and payable on such Securities, for principal and premium, if any, and any interest or other amounts payable, respectively; and 

THIRD: To the Company or its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 

  
 31 








 SECTION 6.07. Limitation on Suits. 

No holder of the Securities of a 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 or Covenant Breach with respect to such Securities; 

(2) the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of such Securities then Outstanding shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default or Covenant Breach in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(3) such holder or holders have offered to the Trustee 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 proceedings; and 
 (5) no direction
inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Securities then Outstanding; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more holders of Securities shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such holders of Securities or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except
in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such holders of Securities. 
 SECTION 6.08. Unconditional Right of
Securityholders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the holder of any
Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and premium, if any, on and (subject to Sections 2.05, 3.02 and 3.04) any interest or other amounts payable on such
Security on the respective stated maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on the redemption or repayment date, as the case may be) 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 6.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

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

  
 32 








 SECTION 6.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as provided in Section 2.09, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the
holders of Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

SECTION 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default or
Covenant Breach shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or Covenant Breach or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article Six or by law to the Trustee or to the
holders of Securities may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the holders of Securities. 

SECTION 6.12. Control by Securityholders.  

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding affected Securities 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 such affected Securities, provided that 

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any statute or 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) subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee need not take any action which it in good
faith determines might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the holders not consenting. 
 SECTION 6.13. Waiver of Past
Defaults. 
 Except as may otherwise be provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(b) for the Securities of a
series, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities affected thereby may, on behalf of the holders of all such affected Securities, waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except
a default 
 (1) in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on or any interest or other amounts payable on such
Securities; or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that pursuant to Article Ten cannot be modified or
amended without the consent of the holders of each Outstanding Security affected thereby. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease
to exist with respect to such Securities, and any Event of Default or Covenant Breach 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. 

  
 33 








 SECTION 6.14. Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Security, by such holder’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed,
that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, the provisions of this Section 6.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted
by any holder, or group of holders, holding in the aggregate more than ten percent in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities affected thereby, or to any suit instituted by any holder of any Securities for the enforcement of the payment of
the principal of or premium, if any, on or any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities on or after the respective stated maturities expressed in such Securities (or, in the case of redemption repayment, on or after the redemption or
repayment date, as the case may be, except, in the case of a partial redemption or repayment, with respect to the portion not so redeemed or repaid). 

SECTION 6.15. 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 laws 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 benefits 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.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 
 SECTION 7.01.
Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Covenant Breach with
respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing of all Events of Default or Covenant Breaches which may have occurred with respect to such Securities, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties with respect to such Securities
as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the
truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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). 
 (b) In case an Event of Default or a Covenant Breach
with respect to the Securities of a series has occurred and has not been cured, the Trustee shall exercise with respect to such Securities 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. 

  
 34 








 (c) No provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for
its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default or a Covenant Breach with respect to any Securities and after the curing of all Events of Default or Covenant Breaches which may have occurred with respect to such Securities, the duties and obligations of the
Trustee with respect to such Securities shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;

with the direction of the holders of Securities pursuant to Section 6.12 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. 
 (d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed as requiring the Trustee to expend
or risk its own funds or otherwise to 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 it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds
or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided,
every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01. 

SECTION 7.02. Certain Rights of the Trustee. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01:

Opinion of Counsel; 
 (d) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at
the request, order or direction of any of the holders of any Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred therein or thereby; 
 (e) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation
into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or documents, 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, in its discretion, 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, and the Company shall reimburse the Trustee for reasonable expenses of such inquiry or investigation; provided that the Trustee shall incur no liability or additional liability of
any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

(h) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default or Covenant Breach unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
actual knowledge thereof, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (b) with respect to any Securities of a series for which the Trustee also is acting as Paying Agent, or has received, either
from the Company (as described in Section 4.07) or any holder or holders of the affected Securities, written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or Covenant Breach at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee, and such notice references the affected Securities and this Indenture; 
 (i) 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; 

(j) the Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers of the
Company authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture; and 
 (k) the Trustee shall not be liable for any
action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 

  
 36 








 SECTION 7.03. No Responsibility for Recitals, etc. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, other than in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the
statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication thereon). The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Securities issued hereunder or the proceeds thereof. 

SECTION 7.04. Ownership of Securities. 

The Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company or of the Trustee, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 7.08 and 7.12, 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 agent of the Company or of the Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.05. Money to be Held in Trust. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 15.14 hereof, all money received by the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall, until
used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be under any
liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except such as it may agree in writing with the Company to pay thereon. 
 SECTION 7.06.
Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. 
 The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing (which to the extent permitted by law shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to
the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and, except as otherwise expressly provided, the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee forthwith upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may arise from the Trustee’s negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. If any property other than cash shall at any time be subject to the lien of this Indenture, the Trustee, if and to the extent authorized by a receivership or
bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction or by the supplemental instrument subjecting such property to such lien, shall be entitled to make and to be reimbursed for, advances for the purpose of preserving such property or of discharging tax liens
or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense, including taxes (other than
taxes based upon or measured or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the trusts
hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligations of the Company under this
Section 7.06 shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such,
except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities. 

  
 37 








 To secure the Company’s obligations under this Section 7.06, the
Trustee shall have a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of or premium, if any, and any interest or other amounts
payable on particular Securities. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default or a Covenant Breach,
the expenses and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 

SECTION 7.07. Officer’s Certificate as Evidence. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the
Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the
absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part
of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 

SECTION 7.08. Eligibility of Trustee; Disqualification; Conflicting Interest. 

(a) The Trustee for all Securities hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States or of any State or the District of Columbia having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by United
States Federal, State or District of Columbia authority. Such corporation shall have its principal place of business in the United States and shall otherwise be eligible as provided in the Trust Indenture Act. If such corporation publishes reports
of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section 7.08(a), the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act and this Indenture, the Trustee shall resign promptly in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 7.09. 

The provisions of this Section 7.08(a) are in furtherance of and subject to Section 310(a) of the Trust
Indenture Act. 
 (b) The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a
conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this
Indenture. To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series or a trustee under the
Indenture for Senior Debt Securities dated as of January 1, 1995, as supplemented, or under any other indenture, a paying agent under any paying agency agreement, a fiscal agent under any fiscal agency agreement or a warrant agent under any
warrant agreement, of the Company or any of its affiliates. For the purposes of determining whether a conflicting interest exists within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice
or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default or Covenant Breach. 

  
 38 








 SECTION 7.09. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign with respect to the Securities of one or more or all
series by giving at least 30 calendar days’ written notice of resignation to the Company. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee meeting the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act with
respect to the applicable Securities by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy
to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee meeting the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 calendar days after the mailing of such notice of resignation, the resigning
Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 

(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur: 

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any
Securities after written request therefor by the Company or by any securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of such Securities for at least six months, or 

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act and
Section 7.08 with respect to any Securities and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such securityholder, or 

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any Securities, 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, the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to the applicable Securities and appoint a successor trustee with respect to such
Securities by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor
trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.14, any securityholder of such Securities who has been a bona fide holder of such Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to such Securities. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper
and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. 
 (c) The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of all series (voting as one class) at the time Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee with respect to all such Securities then Outstanding by giving at least 30 calendar days’ written notice to the Company and the Trustee
and appoint a successor trustee with respect to all such Securities then Outstanding. 
 (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and
any appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.09 shall become effective upon the appointment of a successor trustee and the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 7.10. 

  
 39 








 SECTION 7.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. 

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and
to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee with respect to the applicable Securities shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder with respect to such Securities, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless,
on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the predecessor trustee shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument
transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the predecessor trustee. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing in order more fully and certainly to vest in and
confirm to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee, including the initial Trustee, ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such trustee to secure any amounts then due
it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06. 
 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with
respect to certain (but not all) Securities hereunder, the Company, the predecessor Trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the applicable Securities shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto which shall contain such
provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested
in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood that nothing
herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any
trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such trustee. 
 No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified and eligible under the provisions of this Article Seven and the Trust Indenture Act. 

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, the Company shall provide
notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to all holders of the applicable Securities in the manner described in Section 15.04. If the Company fails to provide such notice in the prescribed manner within ten days
after the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be provided in the manner described in Section 15.04 at the expense of the Company. 

SECTION 7.11. Successor by Merger, etc. 

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 qualified and eligible under the provisions of this Article Seven, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
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. 

  
 40 








 SECTION 7.12. Limitations on Rights of Trustee as Creditor. 

If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject
to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). 
 SECTION 7.13.
Notice of Default from the Trustee. 
 If a default occurs hereunder with respect to the Securities of a series, the Trustee, subject
to Section 7.02(h), shall give the holders of such Securities notice of such default as and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the
character specified in Section 1.01 under the definition of “Covenant Breach” with respect to such Securities, no such notice to the holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For
the purpose of this Section 7.13, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or the lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default or a Covenant Breach with respect to the Securities of
a series. 
 SECTION 7.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee may appoint, with the approval of the Company, an authenticating agent or agents (which may be an affiliate or affiliates of the
Company) with respect to any Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate such Securities issued upon original issue or upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption or repayment thereof or
pursuant to Section 2.09, 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, and execution of a
certificate of authentication, on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent appointed in accordance with this Section 7.14. Unless otherwise agreed by the Trustee and the Company, each authenticating agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation having at all times a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and that is subject to supervision or examination by a United States Federal or State or District of Columbia
authority, or the equivalent foreign authority in the case of an authenticating agent that is not organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof or of the District of Columbia. If such authenticating
agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to any applicable law or to the requirements of such supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.14, the combined capital and
surplus of such authenticating agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 7.14, such authenticating agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 7.14. 

Any corporation into which an authenticating agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such authenticating agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of such authenticating agent, shall continue to be an
authenticating agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 7.14, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent.


  
 41 








 An authenticating agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee
and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving written notice thereof to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination,
or in case at any time such authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.14, the Trustee may appoint a successor authenticating agent which shall be acceptable to the
Company and shall promptly give notice of such appointment to all holders of Securities in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 15.04. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the
provisions of this Section 7.14. 
 The Company agrees to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 7.14 as may be agreed by the Company and such authenticating agent. 

If an appointment of an authentication agent with respect to any Securities is made pursuant to this Section 7.14,
the certificate of authentication to be borne by such Securities shall be substantially in the following form: 
 This is
one of the Securities of the series designated herein and referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. 
  

							
	Dated:                                     
           	 		 	The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee
				
		 		 	By:	 	                                      
                                         
                     ,
		 		 		 	as Authenticating Agent
				
		 		 	By:	 	  

		 		 		 	Authorized Signatory

 If all of the Securities of a series may not be originally issued at one time, and 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 such Securities authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing, shall
appoint in accordance with this Section 7.14 an authenticating agent (which shall be acceptable to the Company and which, if so requested by the Company, shall be such affiliate of the Company) having an office in a Place
of Payment designated by the Company with respect to such Securities, provided that the terms and conditions of such appointment are acceptable to the Trustee. 

  
 42 








 ARTICLE EIGHT 

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS 

SECTION 8.01. Action by Securityholders. 

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or
all series may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any authorization, notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such
specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced by (a) any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by securityholders in person or by agent or proxy duly appointed in writing, or (b) the record of the
holders of Securities voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of securityholders of such Securities duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article Nine, or
(c) a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of securityholders. 
 In determining whether
the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all series have taken any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or
the taking of any other action), (i) the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that may be counted in making such determination and that shall be deemed to be Outstanding for such purposes shall be equal to the amount of the
principal thereof that would be due and payable as of such date of determination upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof to such date pursuant to Section 6.01, and (ii) the principal amount of a
Security denominated in one or more foreign currencies, composite currencies or currency units shall be the U.S. Dollar equivalent, determined as of such date in the manner provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(b),
of the principal amount of such Security (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, of the amount determined as provided in clause (i) of this paragraph). 

SECTION 8.02. Proof of Execution by Securityholders. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, 7.02 and 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a
securityholder or its agent or proxy, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by
the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 2.03(b) for any Securities other than Registered Securities, the principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register. The
record of any securityholders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06. 
 SECTION 8.03. Who
Are Deemed Absolute Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee
and any agent of the Company or of the Trustee may deem the person in whose name such Registered Security shall be registered upon the Security Register to be, and may treat him or her as, the absolute owner of such Registered Security (whether or
not such Registered Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) and, subject to the provisions of
Sections 2.05 and 2.07, any interest or other amounts payable on such Registered Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall be affected by any notice
to the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being, or upon his or her order, shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such
Registered Security. 
 The determination of the holder of any Security other than a Registered Security shall be made in accordance with
the terms of such Security as provided for in accordance with Section 2.03(b). 

  
 43 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall prevent
the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or of the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and holders of beneficial
interests in any Global Security, as the case may be, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary as holder of such Global Security. 

SECTION 8.04. Company-Owned Securities Disregarded. 

In determining whether the holders of the required aggregate principal amount of Securities have provided any request, demand, authorization,
notice, direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on such Securities, or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common
control with the Company or any other obligor on such Securities, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in
relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only such Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Such Securities so owned which have been
pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Securities and that the
pledgee is not a person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the
advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. 
 SECTION 8.05. Future Securityholders Bound. 

Any action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners of such
Security and of any Security issued upon registration of transfer of or in exchange or substitution therefor in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, irrespective of whether or
not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security. Any action taken by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding
upon the Company, the Trustee and the holders of all such Securities. 
 SECTION 8.06. Record Date. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of holders of the Securities of a
series entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent or to otherwise take any action under this Indenture authorized or permitted by Section 6.12 or Section 6.13 or otherwise under
this Indenture. Such record date shall be the later of the date 20 calendar days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or vote or other action or the date of the most recent list (if any) of holders of such Securities delivered to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 5.01 prior to such solicitation. If such a record date is fixed, those persons who were holders of such Securities at the close of business on such record date shall be entitled to vote or
consent or take such other action, or to revoke any such action, whether or not such persons continue to be holders after such record date, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date. 

  
 44

The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of holders of the Securities of any or all series to take any action specified in
Section 9.01, to be held at such time and at such place as the Trustee shall determine. Notice of every meeting of the holders of the Securities of any or all series, setting forth the time and place of such meeting and in
general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given in the manner provided in Section 15.04 not less than 20 nor more than 180 calendar days prior to the date fixed for the meeting. 

SECTION 9.03. Call of Meetings by Company or Securityholders. 

In case at any time the Company, pursuant to a Board Resolution, or the holders of at least ten percent in aggregate principal amount of the

written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have provided notice of such meeting in the manner provided in Section 15.04 within 30 calendar
days after receipt of such request, then the Company or the holders of such Securities in the amount above specified may determine the time and the place for such meeting and may call such meeting by giving notice thereof as provided in

 45 








 SECTION 9.05. Regulations. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any
meeting of holders of the Securities of a series, in regard to proof of the holding of such Securities and of the appointment of proxies, and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies,
certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall think fit. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities shall be proved in
the manner specified in Article Eight and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Article Eight or by having the signature of the person executing the proxy witnessed or guaranteed by any trust company,
bank or banker authorized by Article Eight to certify to the holding of Securities. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified
in Article Eight or other proof. 
 The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman
of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by securityholders as provided in Section 9.03, in which case the Company or the securityholders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in
like manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities represented at the meeting and entitled to vote. 

Subject to the provisions of Sections 8.01 and 8.04, at any meeting each securityholder or proxy shall be entitled to one vote
for each authorized minimum denomination of the relevant Securities as specified in accordance with Section 2.03(b) (or the U.S. Dollar equivalent thereof in connection with Securities issued in a foreign currency,
composite currency or currency unit) of the Outstanding principal amount of such Securities held or represented by him or her; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security
challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote except as a securityholder or proxy. Any meeting of securityholders duly called pursuant to the
provisions of Section 9.02 or 9.03 may be adjourned from time to time, and the meeting may be reconvened without further notice. 

SECTION 9.06. Voting. 
 The vote upon
any resolution submitted to any meeting of securityholders shall be by written ballot on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the securityholders or proxies and on which shall be inscribed the identifying number or numbers or to which shall
be attached a list of identifying numbers of the Securities held or represented by them. The chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make
and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of securityholders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting
and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and
showing that said notice was mailed as provided in Section 9.02. The record shall be signed and verified by the chairman and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Company and the other
to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting.

 Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

 SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURES 
 SECTION 10.01. Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. 

Without the consent of any holders of Securities, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from
time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes: 
 (a) to
evidence the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other Person or the sale, conveyance or transfer of substantially all the assets of the Company to any other Person, in each case pursuant to Article Eleven hereof, and the
assumption by any such successor of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company herein and in the Securities; 
 (b) to add to
the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions, to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event
of Default or a Covenant Breach permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth, with such period of grace, if any, and subject to such conditions as such supplemental indenture may
provide, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities of any or all series (and if for the benefit of the holders of less than all Securities of a series, stating that such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions, provisions or Event of
Default or Covenant Breach are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such Securities), or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company with regard to the Securities of any or all series (and if any such surrender is
to be made with regard to less than all Securities of a series, stating that such surrender is expressly being made solely with regard to such Securities); 

(c) to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance,
exchange and/or registration of Securities in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons, or to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities in uncertificated form, provided that any
such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of any Securities then Outstanding in any material respect; 
 (d) to
modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, or under any similar United States Federal statute hereafter enacted, and
to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, excluding however, the provisions referred to in Section 316(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act or any corresponding provision in any similar
United States Federal statute hereafter enacted; 
 (e) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of
the Securities of any or all series (and if such addition, change or elimination is to apply with respect to less than all Securities of a series, stating that it is expressly being made to apply solely with respect to such Securities), provided
that any such addition, change or elimination (i) shall not apply to any Securities issued prior to, and Outstanding as of the date of, the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision or
(ii) shall become effective only when there are no Securities Outstanding hereunder; 

  
 47 








 (f) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any
supplemental indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided such
other provisions shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the holders of the Outstanding Securities affected thereby; 

(g) to evidence and provide for the acceptance and appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more
series and to add or change any provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to Section 7.10; and 

(h) to establish the form or terms of the Securities of a series as permitted by Section 2.03. 

The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further
appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which adversely affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise. No supplemental indenture shall be effective as against the Trustee unless and until the Trustee has duly executed and delivered the same. 

SECTION 10.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. 

With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 8.01) of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of all Outstanding Securities affected by such supplemental indenture, considered together as one class for this purpose, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and
at any time enter into indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the holders of such affected Securities under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the holders of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, extend
the stated maturity of any Securities, or reduce the principal amount thereof or premium, if any, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest due thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption or repayment thereof, except in
accordance with the terms of such Securities established as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), or reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental
indenture. 
 A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been
included solely for the benefit of one or more particular Securities or series of Securities, or that modifies the rights of the holder of such Securities or series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the
rights under this Indenture of the holder of any other Securities or any other series, as applicable. 
 Upon the request of the Company,
accompanied by a copy of a Board Resolution certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of
securityholders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise,
in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 

  
 48 








 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the securityholders under this
Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. 

Promptly after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.02, the
Company shall provide notice thereof setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 15.04, to all holders of Outstanding Securities so
affected. Any failure of the Company so to provide such notice, or any defect therein, shall not in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 

SECTION 10.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act; Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to the provisions of this Article Ten shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act, as then in
effect. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article Ten and subject to the provisions in any supplemental indenture relating to the prospective application of such instrument, this Indenture
shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of Securities theretofore
or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture
shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 
 The Trustee, subject to the
provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02, shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such supplemental indenture complies with the provisions of this
Article Ten. 
 SECTION 10.04. Notation on Securities. 

Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this
Article Ten may bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. New Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any
modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered, without charge to the securityholders, in exchange for such Securities then Outstanding. 

ARTICLE ELEVEN 
 CONSOLIDATION,
MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE OR TRANSFER 
 SECTION 11.01. Company May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

The Company covenants that it will not merge into or consolidate with any other Person or sell, convey or transfer all or substantially all of
its assets to any Person, other than a sale, conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to one or more Subsidiaries, unless (1) either the Company shall be the continuing corporation, or the successor Person (if other than
the Company) shall be organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof or the District of Columbia and such successor Person shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and
premium, if any, on) and any interest or other amounts payable on all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and 

  
 49 








 
conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Company by supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such successor Person, and (2) the
Company or such successor Person, as the case may be, shall not, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or such sale, conveyance or transfer, be in default in the performance of any such covenant or condition. 

SECTION 11.02. Successor Substituted.  

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer and upon any such assumption by the successor Person as described in
Section 11.01, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if it had been named herein originally as the
Company. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of Bank of America Corporation, Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and
delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall make available for
delivery any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such successor Person thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the
Trustee for that purpose. All of the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all
of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution thereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or
transfer, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 

SECTION 11.03. Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate to Be Given Trustee. 

The Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger,
sale, conveyance or transfer, and any such assumption, complies with the provisions of this Article Eleven and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. 

ARTICLE TWELVE

Company in accordance with Section 15.14) sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all such Securities not therefore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including the principal of (and premium, if any, on)
and any interest or other amounts payable or to become due on such Securities to such date of maturity or date fixed for redemption, as the case may be, 

and, if in either case the Company shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to such Securities, then
this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to such Securities, and the Trustee, on demand of and at the cost and expense of the Company and subject to Section 15.05, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture with respect to such Securities. The Company agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly incurred by the Trustee in connection with this
Indenture or such Securities. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any series or of all series, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.06
shall survive. 
 The Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel which together shall state

 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 

IMMUNITY OF INCORPORATORS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS 

SECTION 13.01. Indenture and Securities Solely Corporate Obligations. 

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture, or in any Security, or because of any indebtedness
evidenced thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, or against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any 

  
 51 








 
successor, either directly or through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance of the Securities by the holders thereof and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 

ARTICLE FOURTEEN 
 DEFEASANCE AND
COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 SECTION 14.01. Applicability of Article. 

If, as specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b), provision is made that either or both of (a) defeasance of the
Securities of a series under Section 14.02 and (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of a series under Section 14.03 shall apply to the Securities of a series, then the provisions of such
Section 14.02 and/or Section 14.03, together with Sections 14.04 and 14.05, shall be applicable to the Outstanding Securities of a series upon compliance with the conditions set forth
below in this Article Fourteen. For purposes of this Article Fourteen, the phrase “Securities of a series” and any similar terms shall mean Securities having identical terms, except as to issue date, principal amount and, if
applicable, the date from which interest begins to accrue, transfer restrictions and registration rights. 
 SECTION 14.02. Defeasance and
Discharge. 
 Subject to Section 14.05, the Company may cause itself to be discharged from its obligations with
respect to the Outstanding Securities of a series on and after the date the applicable conditions precedent set forth below are satisfied but subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions subsequent set forth below (hereinafter,
“defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise
terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of holders of such Outstanding Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 14.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments of
the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and any interest or other amounts payable on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 2.07, 2.08,
2.09, 4.02 and 4.03 and such obligations as shall be ancillary thereto, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, immunities and other provisions in respect of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article Fourteen.
Subject to compliance with this Article Fourteen, defeasance with respect to Securities of a series by the Company is permitted under this Section 14.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its rights under
Section 14.03 with respect to such Securities. Following a defeasance, payment of such Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. 

SECTION 14.03. Covenant Defeasance. 

The Company shall be released from its obligations applicable to the Outstanding Securities of a series under
Section 4.04, Section 4.06 and Section 11.01 and, if so specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b), any other restrictive covenant added for the
benefit of such Securities pursuant to Section 2.03(b) (and the occurrence of any event specified in the definition of “Covenant Breach” in Section 1.01 (with respect to
Section 4.04, Section 4.06 and Section 11.01 and any such other covenants, as applicable) or Section 6.01(e) shall not be deemed to be or result
in an Event of Default or Covenant Breach), on and after the date the applicable conditions precedent set forth below are satisfied but subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions subsequent set forth below (hereinafter, “covenant
defeasance”). For this 

  
 52 








 
purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or
limitation set forth in any such Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but
the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
 SECTION 14.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance. 
 The following shall be the conditions precedent or, as specifically noted below, subsequent to application of either
Section 14.02 or Section 14.03 to the Outstanding Securities of a series: 

(1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the
purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the holders of such Securities (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled
payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the opening of business on the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, without
reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and
discharge (i) the principal of and any premium, interest and other amounts payable on the Outstanding Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous
payments applicable to the Outstanding Securities of such series on the due dates thereof. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date or dates in accordance
with Article Three which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing; 
 (2) No Default shall have happened and be
continuing (A) on the date of such deposit or (B) insofar as subsections 6.01(a) and (b) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit or, if longer, ending on the day
following the expiration of the longest preference period applicable in respect of such deposit (it being understood that the condition in this clause (B) is a condition subsequent and shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such
period); 
 (3) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not (A) cause the Trustee for the Securities of such series
to have a conflicting interest as described in Section 7.08 or for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Company or (B) result in the trust arising from such deposit to constitute,
unless it is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; 
 (4) Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; 

(5) In the case of a defeasance under Section 14.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable United
States federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of
such defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 53 








 (6) In the case of covenant defeasance under
Section 14.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as
a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; 

(7) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional terms, conditions or limitations
which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 2.03(b); and 
 (8)
The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent and subsequent provided for in this Indenture relating to either the defeasance under
Section 14.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 14.03, as the case may be, have been complied with. 

SECTION 14.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

All money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 14.04 in respect of the Outstanding Securities of a series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly
or through any Paying Agent (but not including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and
interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 14.04 or the principal and interest received in respect
thereof. 
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 14.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance, provided that the Trustee shall not be required to liquidate any U.S. Government
Obligations in order to comply with the provisions of this paragraph. 
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if and to the
extent the deposited money or U.S. Government Obligations (or the proceeds thereof) either (i) cannot be applied by the Trustee in accordance with this Section because of a court order or (ii) are for any reason insufficient in amount,
then the Company’s obligations to pay principal of and any premium, interest and other amounts payable on such Securities shall be reinstated to the extent necessary to cover the deficiency on any due date for payment. In any such case, the
Company’s interest in the deposited money and U.S. Government Obligations (and proceeds thereof) shall be reinstated to the extent the Company’s payment obligations are reinstated.

 In 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 to holders of Securities by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such holders
for every purpose hereunder. 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 of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice
with respect to other holders of Securities. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a holder of a Global Security, such
notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Security (or its designee), pursuant to the procedures of such Depositary then in place, not earlier than the earliest date (if any) and not later than the latest date (if any)
prescribed for the giving of such notice. 
 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 of Securities 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. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language. 
 SECTION 15.05. Evidence of Compliance with
Conditions Precedent. 
 Upon any application or demand by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any of the provisions of
this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any
provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished. 

Each Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee with respect to compliance
with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include (1) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (3) a statement that, in the opinion of such person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to
enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and (4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

 SECTION 15.06. Legal Holidays. 

Unless otherwise specified for the Securities of a series as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), in any case where the
date of maturity of interest on or principal of the Securities or the date fixed for redemption or repayment for any Securities shall be a day that is not a business day, then payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any), or any other
amounts payable, need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption or repayment, and no interest shall accrue for the
period after such date. 
 SECTION 15.07. Trust Indenture Act to Control. 

If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision included in this Indenture
which is required to be included in this Indenture by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control. 

SECTION 15.08. Execution in Counterparts. 

This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument. 
 SECTION 15.09. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.  

This Indenture and each Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 The Company and the Trustee hereby irrevocably consent
and submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York or any federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in respect of any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities. 
 SECTION 15.10. Separability Clause. 

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities 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. 
 The Trustee, by its execution of this
Indenture, hereby accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided, upon the terms and conditions hereinabove set forth. 
 SECTION 15.11.
Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE, AND EACH HOLDER OF A SECURITY BY ITS ACCEPTANCE THEREOF, HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 SECTION 15.12. Force Majeure. 

In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture
arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, the occurrence of strikes, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of
God and statewide or countrywide interruptions or losses of utilities or communications services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume
performance as soon as practicable under those circumstances. 
 SECTION 15.13. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). 

The Trustee shall be entitled to deduct FATCA Withholding Tax (as hereinafter defined), and shall have no obligation to gross-up any payment hereunder or to pay any additional amount as a result of such FATCA Withholding Tax. Each of the Company and the Trustee agrees to cooperate and to provide the other with such reasonably
requested information as each may have in its possession to enable the determination of whether any payments pursuant to this Indenture are subject to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the
application of Section 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or any successor provision), any regulation, pronouncement or agreement thereunder, official interpretation thereof or any law implementing an
intergovernmental approach thereto, whether currently in effect or as published and amended from time to time (“FATCA Withholding Tax”). 

SECTION 15.14. Return of Unclaimed Moneys. 

Any moneys deposited with or paid to the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest
or other amounts payable on any Security hereunder, including, without limitation, any such moneys deposited pursuant to Article Twelve or Article Fourteen, and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon
which such principal (and premium, if any, on) or interest or other amounts payable shall have become due and payable, shall be repaid to the Company by the Trustee or such Paying Agent on demand, and the holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for any payment which such holder may be entitled to collect and all liability of the Trustee or any Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease.
