        such record date, if so fixed, may vary from that specified in Section 316(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or

      The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by e-mail, pdf, facsimile transmission or other similar electronic methods; provided,





          however, that the Trustee shall have received an Officer’s Certificate (which need not comply with Section 102) listing the names and titles of the persons designated to give such instructions or directions and containing specimen
        signatures of such designated persons, which certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a
        similar electronic method) and the Trustee acts upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly
        from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions that the Trustee believes, in the absence of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, to be genuine and to have been sent by one of the persons named on the then most recent
        certificate referred to above notwithstanding that such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit the
        instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse of electronic communications by third parties.

        postage prepaid, or sent by overnight courier, to each Holder of a Security entitled to receive such notice, at his, her or its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
        prescribed for the giving of such notice.

       

      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 the equivalent of such
        notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

       

      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Security of any series other than a provision that expressly states that this paragraph is not applicable to the Securities of such series, when this
        Indenture or any Security provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption) to a Holder of Securities in global form (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such
        Security (or its designee) pursuant to the customary procedures of such Depositary.

       

      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 or overnight courier, then such notification
        as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. In any case when notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail or overnight courier, neither the failure to mail such
        notice or send such notice by overnight courier, nor any defect in any notice so mailed or sent by overnight courier, to any particular Holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities,
        and any notice that is given in the manner herein provided shall be deemed to have been duly given for purposes of this Indenture.

        contemplated by Section 303 for the authentication and delivery of such Securities.

      The definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner, provided, that such method is permitted by the rules of any
        securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, all as determined by the officers executing such Securities, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

       

      Section 202. Form of Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication.

      Section 203. Securities in Global Form.

       

      If Securities of a series are issuable in temporary or definitive global form, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, then, notwithstanding Clause (10) of Section 301 and the provisions of Section 302, any such
        Security shall represent such of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed on a schedule attached
        thereto and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased to reflect exchanges, redemptions and cancellations by endorsements to such schedule. Any endorsement of a Security in
        global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner, and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons, as shall be specified
        therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 303 or Section 304. Subject to the provisions of Section 303 and, if applicable, Section 304, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any Security in global form in
        the manner, and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons, specified therein or in the applicable Company Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 303 or 304 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company
        with respect to endorsement, or delivery or redelivery, of a Security in global form shall be in writing.

       

      The provisions of the last sentence of Section 303 shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form, if such Security was never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers to the
        Trustee the Security in global form, together with written instructions with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby and the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 303.

      (2) any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of the series which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (except for Securities

        repurchase by the Company at the option of the Holders thereof, except for Securities of such series authenticated and delivered upon any such repurchase or redemption of any such Security in part, and except for any Securities which, pursuant to
        Section 303, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder), it being understood and agreed that, unless otherwise expressly provided pursuant to this Section 301 with respect to the Securities of the series, the series may be
        re-opened from time to time for the issuance of additional Securities of the series subject to such terms and conditions of any such re-opening as may be established pursuant to this Section 301;

       

      (3) whether any Securities of the series may be represented initially by a Security in temporary or definitive global form and, if so, the initial Depositary with respect to
        any such temporary or definitive global Security, and, if other than as provided in Section 304 or Section 305, as applicable, whether, and the circumstances under which, beneficial owners of interests in any such temporary or definitive global
        Security may exchange such interests for Securities of such series of like tenor of any authorized form and denomination;

       

      (4) the Person to whom any interest on any Security of the series shall be payable, if other than the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor
        Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, and any additional or different terms with respect to the payment of interest on temporary or definitive global Securities;

       

      (5) the date or dates on which the principal of the Securities of the series is payable or the method of determination thereof;

        series may be surrendered for registration of transfer, Securities of the series may be surrendered for exchange and notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of the series and this Indenture may be served;

       

      (8) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions upon which, Securities of the series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at

        thereof, the conditions, if any, giving rise to such obligation, and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions upon which, Securities of the series shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in
        part, pursuant to such obligation, and any provisions for the remarketing of such Securities;

       

      (10) the denominations in which any Securities of the series shall be issuable, if other than denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

       

      (11) the currency or currencies, including composite currencies or currency units, in which Securities of the series may be denominated or in which payment of the principal of
        and any interest on the Securities of the series shall be payable, if other than the currency of the United States of America, and if so, whether the Securities of the series may be satisfied and discharged other than as provided in Article Four;

       

      
        12

        
          


      

      (12) if the amounts of payments of principal of and any interest on the Securities of the series are to be determined with reference to an index, formula or other method, or
        based on a coin or currency other than that in which the Securities are stated to be payable, the manner in which such amounts shall be determined and the calculation agent, if any, with respect thereto;

      (16) if the Securities of the series may be issued or delivered (whether upon original issuance or upon exchange of a temporary Security of such series or otherwise), or any
        installment of principal or interest is payable, only upon receipt of certain certificates or other documents or satisfaction of other conditions in addition to those specified in this Indenture, the forms and terms of such certificates, documents
        or conditions;

       

      (17) any addition to, or modification or deletion of, any Event of Default, covenant of the Company or other term or provision specified in this Indenture with respect to
        Securities of the series, including the modification of the satisfaction and discharge provisions set forth in Article IV of this Indenture and the addition of any provisions relating to covenant defeasance and/or legal defeasance; and

       

      (18) any other terms of the series, whether or not consistent with the other provisions of this Indenture, which other terms may, subject, in the case of an existing
        outstanding series of Securities, to Article IX, amend, supplement or replace any of the terms of this Indenture insofar as it concerns the Securities of the series.

       

      All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical, except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section 301 or in any
        indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series.

       

      If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of any appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
        Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture setting forth or establishing the terms of the series. With respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering,
        such Board Resolution or the Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture setting forth or establishing the terms of such series may provide general terms for Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of particular
        Securities of such series shall be specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company, or one or more of the Company’s agents designated in an Officer’s Certificate, in accordance with the Company Order as
        contemplated by the proviso of the third paragraph of Section 303.

       

      Section 302. Denominations.

       

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, any Securities of a series shall be issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
        thereof.

       

      Section 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

       

      The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President, one of its Vice Presidents, its Treasurer or one of its Assistant Treasurers. The signature of any of these
        officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Securities may, but need not, bear the Company’s corporate seal or a facsimile thereof.

       

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

       

      
        13

        
          


      

      At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company
        Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee, in accordance with such Company Order, shall authenticate and deliver such Securities; provided, however, that, with respect to
        Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, (a) such Company Order may be delivered by the Company to the Trustee prior to the delivery to the Trustee of such Securities for authentication and delivery, (b) the Trustee shall authenticate
        and deliver Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount established for 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 rate or rates of interest, if any, the Stated Maturity or Maturities, the original issue date or dates, the redemption or repurchase provisions, if any, and
        any other terms of Securities of such series shall be determined by 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 electronic
        instructions from the Company, or the Company’s duly authorized agent or agents designated in an Officer’s Certificate.

       

      In authenticating Securities, the form or terms of which have been established in or pursuant to one or more Officer’s Certificates as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, and accepting the additional responsibilities
        under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall receive upon request, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the form and terms of such Securities have been
        duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the
        Trustee shall receive such Opinion of Counsel only once, at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series, and that the Opinion of Counsel above may state:

       

      (y) that the forms of such Securities have been, and the terms of such Securities (when established in accordance with such procedures as may be specified from time to time in a Company Order, all as contemplated by
        and in accordance with a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to Section 301, as the case may be) will have been, duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

       

      (z) that such Securities when (1) executed by the Company, (2) completed, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and (3) issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any
        conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions.

       

      With respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality,
        validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 and this Section, as applicable, at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of
        such series, unless and until it has received written notification that such opinion or other 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.

       

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding three paragraphs, if all Securities of a series are subject to a Periodic Offering, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officer’s Certificate
        otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such Officer’s Certificate is delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such
        series to be issued.

       

      Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an
        authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.

       

      
        14

        
          


      

      No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for
        herein, executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
        hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided
        in Section 309, together with a written statement stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder
        and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

       

      Section 304. Temporary Securities.

       

      Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed,
        typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions,
        substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. Such temporary Securities may be in global form.

       

      Except in the case of Securities represented by a temporary global Security, if temporary Securities for some or all of the Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities representing
        such Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of such definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such definitive Securities of like tenor upon surrender of such temporary Securities
        at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 in a Place of Payment for such series for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or
        more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized
        denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

       

      Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of
        like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder.

       

      Section 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

       

      (1) The Company shall cause to be kept, at one of its offices or agencies maintained pursuant to Section 1002, a register for the Securities accessible to the Trustee (the
        register maintained in such office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”), in which, subject to such reasonable regulations
        as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein
        provided.

       

      (2) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose in a Place of
        Payment, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee or a duly appointed co-authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series and of any
        authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor.

       

      (3) Notwithstanding any other provisions (other than the provisions set forth in paragraphs (7) and (8)) of this Section, a Security in global form representing all or a
        portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred, except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary, or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary, or by
        such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

       

      
        15

        
          


      

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

       

      (5) (Intentionally Omitted)

       

      (6) Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee or a duly appointed authenticating agent shall authenticate and
        deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

       

      (7) If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such
        series, or if such Depositary shall cease to be eligible to act as such in respect of the Securities of such series, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the
        Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities
        of such series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of, and having the same tenor and terms as, the Security or
        Securities in global form representing such series, in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form in accordance with the instructions, if any, of the Depositary.

       

      (8) The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that some or all of the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more global Securities
        shall, in whole or in part, no longer be represented by such global Security or Securities. In such event, or if an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series shall have occurred and shall be continuing, the Company will
        execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver such Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations, and
        in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of, and having the same tenor and terms as, the Security or Securities in global form representing such series, in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form (or portion
        thereof) in accordance with the instructions, if any, of the Depositary.

       

      (9) Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified in the preceding two paragraphs or as contemplated by Section 301, any definitive global Security shall be
        exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interests in a definitive global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Securities of such series and of like principal amount and tenor but of
        another authorized form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, then, without unnecessary delay, but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the
        Trustee definitive Securities, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such definitive global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such definitive
        global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge, and the Trustee
        shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such definitive global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such
        definitive global Security to be exchanged; provided, however, that notwithstanding the last paragraph of this Section 305, no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business
        15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date. If a Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a definitive global Security after the close of business at the office or
        agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and the opening of business at such office or agency
        on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, 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 definitive global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this
        Indenture.

       

      
        16

        
          


      

      (10) Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in definitive form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. All cancelled Securities
        held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practice and a certificate of such disposition delivered to the Company upon the Company’s written request, unless the Company directs that such cancelled
        Securities be returned to it. Securities issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section 305 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form,
        pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

       

      (11) 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.

       

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

       

      (13) No service charge shall be made for any 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 with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer, other than exchanges upon the Company’s
        repurchase or redemption of any Securities in part at the option of the Holders thereof not involving any transfer, and other than exchanges of global Securities (or portions thereof) for Securities in definitive form in accordance with Section
        305.

       

      The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that
        series to be redeemed and ending (except as otherwise provided in the proviso of the third sentence of paragraph (9) of this Section 305) at the close of business on the day of the mailing or other delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or
        (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

       

      Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

       

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

       

      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 agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute, and upon its request the Trustee shall
        authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

       

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

       

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

       

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

       

      
        17

        
          


      

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

       

      Section 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

       

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
        shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

       

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

       

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

       

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

       

      Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 305, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, any other Security shall carry the
        rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and interest to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

       

      Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners.

       

      Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of
        such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 and subject to Section 305 and Section 307) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever,
        whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

       

      None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership
        interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

       Section 309. Cancellation.
        
           

          All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to
            the Trustee. All Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. 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 (including Securities received by the Company in exchange or payment for other securities of the Company), 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 any
            Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted in the form of Securities for any particular series or as permitted pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee may be
            disposed of and certification of their disposition delivered to the Company upon the Company’s written request, unless by a Company Order the Company shall direct that such Securities be returned to it. Any cancelled Securities not disposed of
            shall be returned to the Company.

           

          Section 310. Computation of Interest.

           

          Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, (i) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a fixed rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
            twelve 30-day months and (ii) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a variable rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period divided by 360.

           

          Section 311. CUSIP Numbers.

           

          The Company in issuing Securities of any series may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice of
            redemption, repurchase or exchange, as a convenience to Holders, with respect to such series; 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 of such series or as contained in any notice of a redemption, repurchase or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities of such series, and any
            such redemption, repurchase or exchange shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers.

          Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, this Indenture, upon a Company Request, shall cease to be of further effect as to all Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of any
            series, as the case may be (except as to (i) remaining rights of registration of transfer, substitution and exchange of Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be, (ii) rights hereunder of Holders to receive payment of
            principal of and interest on all Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be, at the Stated Maturity thereof or, if any such Securities have been or, pursuant to Clause (1)(B)(ii) of this Section 401,
            are to be called for redemption, at the applicable Redemption Date thereof and any other rights of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be, as beneficiaries hereof with respect
            to the amounts deposited with the Trustee under this Section 401 and (iii) the rights and the obligations of the Company or the Trustee under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003 and the immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the obligations
            of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607, all of which shall survive), and the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on all the Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of such series, as
            the case may be, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture, when:

          (A) all Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be, theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) (Intentionally
            Omitted), (ii) Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be, which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306, (iii)  Securities of such series called for redemption and
            maturing after the relevant Redemption Date, whose surrender has been waived as provided in Section 1106, and (iv) Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be, for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or
            segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

           

          (B) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
            the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, or the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be, money or direct non-callable obligations of, or
            non-callable obligations timely payments of which are guaranteed by, the United States of America, for the payment of which guarantee or obligation the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged (“U.S.






              Government Obligations”), maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as are sufficient, without consideration of any investment of such principal or interest, to pay and discharge at Stated Maturity or, in
            the case of any such Securities which have been or, pursuant to Clause (ii) below, are to be called for redemption, on the relevant Redemption Date, as the case may be, all principal of and interest on all Outstanding Securities or all
            Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be. Such irrevocable trust agreement shall instruct the Trustee (i) to apply such money or the proceeds of said U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of said principal of and interest
            on the Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be; and (ii) if the Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be, are to be repaid at a Redemption Date and the Company has not given notice of redemption pursuant
            to Section 1104 (including when such Securities are not yet redeemable at the date of deposit) to give notice of redemption on such Redemption Date pursuant to Section 1104;

           

          (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Securities or Securities of such series, as the case may be;
            and

           

          (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the

            case may be, have been complied with.

           

          Notwithstanding any such satisfaction and discharge, the Company shall not be discharged from any payment obligations in respect of the Securities or the Securities of such series, as the case may be, which are
            deemed not to be Outstanding under Clause (iii) of the definition of “Outstanding” if such obligations continue to be valid obligations of the Company under applicable law.

            in the currency of the United States of America) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to the trust agreement referred to in Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of the series
            with respect to which such deposit is made, this Indenture and such trust agreement, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries) as the Trustee may determine, of
            the principal and interest amounts due at the Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be, with respect to the Securities of such series to the Persons entitled thereto.

          If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of
            the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the

            principal (or portion thereof) and accrued interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable.

           

          
            21

            
              


          

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

            rates is prescribed therefor in such Securities, at the rate of interest borne by such Securities; and

           

          (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amount due the
            Trustee under Section 607;

           

          and

           

          (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal of and interest on Securities of such series which have become
            due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

           

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

           

          Section 503. 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 Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days,
            or

           

          (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof,

           

          the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to
            the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest from the date such interest was due, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities or, if no such rate or rates is
            prescribed therefor in such Securities, at the rate of interest 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 and any other amount due the Trustee under Section 607.

           

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

           

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

          Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

            the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise
            and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

           

          (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to
            have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amount due the Trustee under Section 607) and of the Holders of
            Securities allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

           

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

            shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any
            other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

           

          Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security 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 a Security in any such proceeding.

            relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
            disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

          First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607;

           

          Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and

            remedy hereunder, unless:

           

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

           

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

           

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

           

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

           

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

           

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

           

          Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest.

           

          Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 307)
            interest on such Security on the Stated Maturities or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date or, in the case of redemption or repurchase by the Company at the option of the Holder, on the
            date fixed for such redemption or repurchase, as the case may be) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

           

          Section 509. 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, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be restored severally and respectively to their
            former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

            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.

           

          
            24

            
              


          

          Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

           

          No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event
            of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders 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 512. Control by Holders of Securities.

           

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

           

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

           

          (2) the Trustee shall not have determined that the action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and

           

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

           

          Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

           

          The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Holder), may on behalf of the Holders of all the
            Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default:

           

          (1) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of such series, or

           

          (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such
            series affected.

           

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

           

          Section 514. Undertaking for Costs.

           

          All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his, her or its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
            enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such
            suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made
            by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
            Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Security for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such
            Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date or, in the case of redemption or repurchase by the Company at the option of the Holder, on the date fixed for such redemption or repurchase, as the case may be).

           

          Section 515. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

           

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

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

           

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

            correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the
            Securities and perform its obligations hereunder, and the statements made by the Trustee in any Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to any qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee
            shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

           

          Section 605. May Hold Securities.

           

          The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 612,
            may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

           

          Section 606. Money Held in Trust.

           

          Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder
            except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

           

          Section 607. Compensation and Reimbursement.

           

          The Company agrees:

           

          (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law
            in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

           

          (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
            Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as has been caused by its
            negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith; and

           

          (3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on
            its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its
            powers or duties hereunder.

           

          As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such,
            except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of or interest on particular Securities.

           

          
            28

            
              


          

          When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default, the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are
            intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

           

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

           

          Section 608. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

           

          There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder, which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized
            under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at
            least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
            surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
            hereinafter specified in this Article. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(5) and 310(b).

           

          Section 609. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

           

          (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 610.

           

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

           

          (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee
            and to the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after such Act of the Holders, the removed Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of
            competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

           

          (d) If at any time:

           

          (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the last sentence of Section 608 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
            least six months (or such shorter period as the Securities have been outstanding), or

           

          (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 608 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

           

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

           

          then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by written notice to the Trustee, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities or (ii) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months
            (or such shorter period as the Securities have been outstanding) may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the
            appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

           

          
            29

            
              


          

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

           

          (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
            series in the manner provided in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

           

          Section 610. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

           

          (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring
            Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
            rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
            Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any,
            provided for in Section 607.

           

          (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the
            Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto, wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer
            and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if
            the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
            Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for
            or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees as co-trustees of the same trust and that each such
            Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and, upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or
            removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
            retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and
            deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, subject, nevertheless, to its
            lien, if any, provided for in Section 607.

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

           

          (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

           

          Section 611. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

           

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

           

          Section 612. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

           

          The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to
            Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

          (c) Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be deemed to have agreed with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be
            held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to, and as required by, the Trust Indenture Act.

           

          Section 703. Reports by Trustee.

           

          (a) So long as any Securities are Outstanding, the Trustee shall, within 60 days after May 15 of each year, commencing in 2020, the Trustee shall transmit to all Holders of Securities a brief report dated as of

          (b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders of Securities, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed, with the Commission and with

            any such addition, change or elimination shall neither (A) apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (B) modify the rights of the Holder
            of any such Security with respect to such provision; or

           

          (8) to add to or change or eliminate any provision of this Indenture as shall be necessary to comply with any amendments to the Trust Indenture Act or to otherwise maintain
            qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or to comply with the rules of any applicable Depositary; or

           

          (9) to conform the text of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities to any provision of the section entitled “Description of Notes” (or equivalent title) in the
            offering memorandum or prospectus relating to the initial offering of such series of Securities;

           

          (10) to secure the Securities; or

           

          (11) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect.

           

          Section 902. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

           

          With the consent of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are
            affected by such addition, change, elimination or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected by such supplemental indenture voting as a single class
            (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by
            a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an 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 modifying in
            any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of the applicable series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of
            each Outstanding Security affected thereby:

           

          (1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal or interest on, any such Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of
            interest thereon or any premium payable thereon, or reduce the amount of principal of any such Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502, or
            change the Place of Payment where, or coin or currency in which, any principal of, or any installment of interest on, any such Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the
            Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date or, in the case of Securities which are subject to repurchase or redemption by the Company at the option of the Holders, on or after the date fixed for such
            repurchase or redemption);

           

          (2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the
            consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) with respect to the Securities of such series provided for in this Indenture; or

           

          (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1010, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this
            Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby.

          A supplemental indenture which 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 series of Securities, or
            which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

           

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

           

          Section 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

           

          In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall receive upon
            request to the Company, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and all conditions
            precedent herein relating to the execution of such supplemental indenture have been complied with. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties,
            liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

           

          Section 904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

           

          Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes;
            and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

           

          Section 905. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

           

          Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

           

          Section 906. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

           

          Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall, if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the
            Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture
            may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series.

           

          ARTICLE TEN

           

          Covenants

           

          Section 1001. Payment of Principal and Interest.

           

          The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of
            the Securities and this Indenture. An installment of principal or interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or a Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on that
            date funds (in the currency or currencies of payment with respect to such Securities) designated for and sufficient to pay such installment. At the Company’s option, payment of principal or interest may be made by check or by transfer to an
            account maintained by the payee (provided the Trustee has received written payment instructions at least fifteen days prior to any payment date).

           

          Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

           

          The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for such series an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered
            for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the
            Holders of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency in respect of any series of Securities, or shall fail to furnish the
            Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders of Securities of that series may be made, and notices and demands may be made or served, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

           

          
            35

            
              


          

          The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to
            time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in accordance with the
            requirements set forth above for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

           

          Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall be a Paying Agent and Transfer Agent for the Securities of such series (until replaced or removed
            by the Company in accordance with this Indenture), and the office or agency of the Company maintained in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in respect of the Securities of such series for the purposes contemplated by this Section
            1002 shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

           

          Section 1003. Money for Security Payments to Be Held in Trust.

           

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

           

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

           

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

           

          (1) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as such Paying Agent and hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of or interest on
            Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

           

          (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the making of any payment of principal or interest on the
            Securities of such series; and

           

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

           

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

           

          

          
            36

            
              


          

          Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or then held by the Company in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years
            after such principal or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured
            general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense and direction of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper in each
            Place of Payment, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to
            the Company.

          Section 1007. Limitation on Liens.

           

          The Company will not, and will not permit any Consolidated Subsidiary to, incur, create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable with respect to any Secured Debt, unless (i) the Company secures or causes such
            Consolidated Subsidiary to secure the Securities equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Secured Debt or (ii) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all Secured Debt that would otherwise be subject to the restrictions set
            forth in this Section would not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section there shall be excluded from Secured Debt all Indebtedness secured
            by:

           

          (a) Liens existing on the date of this Indenture;

           

          (b) Liens existing on property of, or on any shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness of, any Business Entity at the time such Business Entity becomes a Consolidated Subsidiary or at the time such Business Entity is
            merged into or consolidated with the Company or any Consolidated Subsidiary or at the time of sale, lease or other disposition of the properties of such Business Entity (or a division of such Business Entity) to the Company or a Consolidated
            Subsidiary as an entirety or substantially as an entirety;

           

          (c) Liens in favor of the Company or a Consolidated Subsidiary;

           

          (d) Liens in favor of governmental bodies to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute;

            time of, or within two years after the latest of the acquisition, the completion of such construction, installation, expansion, renovation, improvement or development or the commencement of full operation of such property or within two years
            after the acquisition of such shares or Indebtedness for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost thereof;

           

          (f) Liens on any specific oil or gas property to secure Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Consolidated Subsidiary to provide funds for all or any portion of the cost of exploration, production, gathering,

          (i) any extension, renewal or refunding of any Liens referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (h), inclusive; provided, however, that (i) such extension, renewal or
            refunding Lien shall be limited to all or part of the same property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness that secured the Lien extended, renewed or refunded (plus improvements on or replacements of such property) and (ii) such Secured Debt
            at such time is not increased; and

            may have knowledge.

          The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Section 1004, 1007 or 1008 with respect to the Securities of any series, if before or after the time for such
            compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or
            condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect

          ARTICLE ELEVEN

           

          Redemption of Securities

           

          Section 1101. Applicability of Article.

           

          Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any
            series) in accordance with this Article.

           

          Section 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

           

          In the event that the Company elects to redeem Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 10 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the
            Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and of any other information necessary to identify the Securities of such series to be redeemed.

           

          Section 1103. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.

           

          Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, if less than all the Securities of any series with the same issue date, interest rate, Stated Maturity and other
            terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such
            method as the Trustee shall deem appropriate, which method may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any authorized denomination for the Securities of
            that series in excess thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series.

           

          
            38

            
              


          

          The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

           

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

           

          Section 1104. Notice of Redemption.

           

          Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 to the Holders of Securities to be
            redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date.

           

          All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including, if applicable, the CUSIP number thereof) and shall state:

           

          (1) the Redemption Date;

           

          (2) the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof);

           

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

           

          (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, together with (if applicable)
            accrued and unpaid interest thereon and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date;

           

          (5) the place or places where such Securities maturing after the Redemption Date are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; and

           

          (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

           

          A notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 106 need not identify particular Securities to be redeemed.

           

          Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company; provided that, the Company sets forth the notice information in an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee no less than 15 days prior to the Redemption Date (or such shorter time to which the Trustee agrees).

           

          Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price.

           

          On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003)
            an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and, if accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed is, pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or such Securities, payable to the Persons
            entitled to receive the Redemption Price thereof, and such accrued and unpaid interest (if any) on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

           

          Section 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

           

          Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date
            (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall
            be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of
            interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular
            Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Sections 305 and 307.

          If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the
            Security or, if no such rate is so prescribed, at the rate of interest borne by the Security.

           

          Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part.

           

          Any Security which 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 his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such
            Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of
            the principal of the Security so surrendered.

           

          Section 1108. Performance by Another Person.

           

          Payment of the Redemption Price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person; provided, however, the Company shall remain obligated to pay the Redemption Price and perform any such obligations with respect to such redemption in the event such other person fails to do so.

          Sinking Funds

           

          Section 1201. Applicability of Article.

           

          The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series.

           

          The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount
            provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction
            as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

           

          Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

           

          The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity and other terms (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a
            credit Securities of a series with the same issue date, interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms which have been redeemed, either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of
            permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series with the same issue date,
            interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such
            Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

          Section 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

           

          Not less than 60 days (or such shorter period as shall be acceptable to the Trustee) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s
            Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is
            to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date, the
            Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner
            provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

           

          ARTICLE THIRTEEN

           

          Meetings of Holders of Securities

           

          Section 1301. Purposes for Which Meetings May Be Called.

           

          A meeting of Holders of Securities of any series may be called at any time and from time to time pursuant to this Article to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
            or other action provided by this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series.

           

          Section 1302. Call, Notice and Place of Meetings.

           

          (a) The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders of Securities of any series for any purpose specified in Section 1301, to be held at such time and at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
            New York, or, with the approval of the Company, at any other place. Notice of every meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, setting forth the time and the 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 106, not less than 20 nor more than 180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

           

          (b) In case at any time the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have requested the Trustee to call a meeting of the Holders of Securities of
            such series for any purpose specified in Section 1301, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have made the first publication of the notice of such meeting
            within 20 days after receipt of such request or shall not thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the Company or the Holders of Securities of such series in the amount above specified, as the case may be, may
            determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or in such other place as shall be determined and approved by the Company, for such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof
            as provided in Subsection (a) of this Section.

           

          Section 1303. Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings.

           

          To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, a Person shall be (1) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series or (2) a Person appointed by an instrument in
            writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such Holder or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series
            shall be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel.

           

          Section 1304. Quorum; Action.

           

          The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series shall constitute a quorum for a meeting of Holders of Securities of such series; provided, however, that if any action is to be taken at such meeting with respect to a consent or waiver which this Indenture expressly provides may be given by the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a
            majority, in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series, the Persons entitled to vote such lesser percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum
            within 30 minutes of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case, the meeting may be adjourned for a period determined by the
            chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the
            adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in Section 1302(a), except that such notice need be given only once not less than five days prior to the date on which the
            meeting is scheduled to be reconvened. Notice of the reconvening of an adjourned meeting shall state expressly the percentage, as provided above, of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series which shall constitute a
            quorum.

           

          
            41

            
              


          

          Except as limited by the proviso to Section 902, any resolution presented to a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present, as aforesaid, may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the
            Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; provided, however, that, except as limited by the proviso to Section 902, any resolution with respect to any
            request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in principal amount
            of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present, as aforesaid, by the affirmative vote of the Holders of such specified percentage in principal
            amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series.

           

          Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly held in accordance with this Section shall be binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series, whether or
            not present or represented at the meeting.

           

          Section 1305. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings.

           

          (a) 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 Securities of a series in regard to proof of the
            holding of Securities of such series 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 deem appropriate. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in
            Section 104 or other proof.

           

          (b) 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 Holders of Securities as provided in Section 1302(b),
            in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the series 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 Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting.

           

          (c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect to 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 Holder of a Security of such series or proxy.

           

          (d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called pursuant to Section 1302 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount
            of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

          Section 1306. Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings.

           

          The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of
            their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent 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, at least in duplicate, of the
            proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any series 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, signed 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 given as provided in Section 1302 and, if applicable, Section 1304. Each copy shall
            be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to the Company and another 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.
