Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any
such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Debt Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this
Section. 
 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the

in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Debt Security. 
 (f) For purposes of determining the principal
amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of any series the Holders of which are required, requested or permitted to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any other Act under this Indenture, (i) each
Original Issue Discount Security shall be deemed to have the principal amount determined by the Trustee that could be declared to be due and payable pursuant to the terms of such Original Issue Discount Security as of the date there is delivered to
the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company, such Act by Holders of the required aggregate principal amount 

  
 A-8 








 
of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series and (ii) each Debt Security denominated in a Foreign Currency or composite currency shall be deemed to have the principal amount determined
by the Exchange Rate Agent by converting the principal amount of such Debt Security in the currency in which such Debt Security is denominated into Dollars at the Exchange Rate as of the date such Act is delivered to the Trustee and, where it is
hereby expressly required, to the Company, by Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series. 

(g) The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Debt Securities of any series
entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Debt Securities of such series, provided that the
Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant
to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Debt Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date (as defined below) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of such series on such record
date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall
automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of the
relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration
Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Debt Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. 

The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Debt Securities of any series entitled
to join in the giving or making of (i) any notice of an Event of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2), or
(iv) any direction referred to in Section 512, in each case with respect to Debt Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Debt Securities of such series on such record
date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or
prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record
date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant
to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Debt Securities of
the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. 

  
 A-9 








 With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such
record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new
Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Debt Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not
designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto,
subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. 
 Section 105. Notices, etc., to Trustee and
Company. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of Holders or other document provided or
permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall
be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided), if made, given, furnished or filed in writing (which may be via original or facsimile, with original to follow promptly thereafter) to or with the Trustee
at its Corporate Trust Office, or 
 (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its Secretary at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or
at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 
 Section 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given to Holders of Debt Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Debt Security affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than
the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 
 In case, by reason of the suspension
of or irregularities in regular mail service or for any other reason, it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders of Debt Securities when said notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this
Indenture or of the Debt Securities, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Debt Securities is to be given by
mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Debt Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Debt Securities. 

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

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

 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Debt Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 112. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

This Indenture and the Debt Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Each of the
Company and the Trustee hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture, the Debt Securities or the transaction
contemplated hereby. 
 Section 113. Legal Holidays. 

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Stated Maturity of any Debt Security shall not be a Business
Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made
on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or at the Stated Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for
the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations of the Company, and that

and delivering the first Debt Securities of any series (and upon request of the Trustee thereafter), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee (i) the certificates called for under Sections 201 and 301 hereof and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel described in the next sentence. 
 In authenticating such Debt Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this
Indenture in relation to any such Debt Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, prior to the initial authentication of such Debt Securities, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 

(i) a Board Resolution relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken pursuant to such resolution certified by
the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company; 
 (ii) an executed supplemental indenture, if any, relating thereto; 

(iii) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the form and terms of the Debt Securities of such series pursuant to Sections 201 and
301 and stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of such Debt Securities have been complied with; and 

(iv) an Opinion of Counsel stating 

(A) that the form of such Debt Securities has been established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or by a supplemental indenture as
permitted by Section 201 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (B) that the terms of such Debt Securities have been
established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or by a supplemental indenture as permitted by Section 301 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 

(C) that such Debt Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy,


  
 A-17 








 
reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and the application of general principles of equity and except further as enforcement thereof may
be limited by (i) requirements that a claim with respect to any Debt Securities denominated other than in Dollars (or a Foreign Currency or currency unit judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into Dollars at a rate of exchange
prevailing on a date determined pursuant to applicable law or (ii) governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments in Foreign Currencies or currency units or payments outside the United States. 

(c) If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 301 that the Debt Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in
the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities in
permanent or temporary form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series to be represented by one or more Global Securities,
(ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee of such Depositary and (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s
instructions. 
 (d) The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Debt Securities under this Section 303
if the issuance of such Debt Securities will adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Debt Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 

(e) If all the Debt Securities of any series are not to be issued at onetime, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the
time of issuance of each Debt Security, but such Opinion of Counsel, with appropriate modifications, may instead be delivered at or prior to the time of the first issuance of Debt Securities of such series. 

(f) Each Debt Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

(g) No Debt Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on
such Debt Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee, and such certificate upon any Debt Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Debt Security has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Debt Security or portion thereof shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall
deliver such Debt Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such
Debt Security or portion thereof has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Debt Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture. 
 (h) Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 301 for a Global Security in registered form must, at
the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation. 

  
 A-18 








 Section 304. Temporary Debt Securities. 

(a) Pending the preparation of definitive Debt Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon receipt of documents required by
Sections 301 and 303, together with a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Debt Securities which are printed, typewritten or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor and terms of the
definitive Debt 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 Debt Securities may determine, as evidenced by their
signatures on such Debt Securities. 
 (b) Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301: 

(i) Except in the case of temporary Debt Securities in global form, if temporary Debt Securities of any series are issued, the Company will
cause definitive Debt Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Debt Securities of such series, the related temporary Debt Securities shall be exchangeable for such definitive Debt
Securities upon surrender of the temporary Debt Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in the Place of Payment for such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Debt
Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Debt Securities of the same series of like tenor and terms and of authorized denominations.

 (ii) If Debt Securities of any series are issued in temporary global form, any such temporary Global Security shall, unless otherwise
provided pursuant to Section 301, be delivered to the Depositary for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Debt Securities (or to such other accounts as they may direct). 

(iii) Without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such
temporary Global Security (the “Global Exchange Date”), the Company shall deliver definitive Debt Securities to the Trustee or the agent appointed by the Company pursuant to Section 301 to effect the exchange of the temporary
Global Security for definitive Debt Securities (the “Global Exchange Agent”), in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary Global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the Global Exchange
Date, such temporary Global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Global Exchange Agent, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Debt Securities without charge and the Trustee or the Global Exchange
Agent, if authorized by the Trustee pursuant to Section 614, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such temporary Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Debt Securities of the same series of
authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms as the portion of such temporary Global Security to be exchanged. Upon any exchange of a part of such temporary Global Security for definitive Debt Securities, the portion of the principal amount
and any interest thereon so exchanged shall be endorsed by the Global Exchange Agent on a schedule to such temporary Global Security, whereupon the principal amount and interest payable with respect to such temporary Global Security shall be reduced
for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed. The definitive Debt Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary Global Security shall be in registered form or global registered form, or any combination thereof, as
specified as contemplated by Section 301, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof. 

  
 A-19 








 (iv) The interest of a beneficial owner of Debt Securities of a series in a temporary Global
Security shall be exchanged for definitive Debt Securities of the same series and of like tenor and terms following the Global Exchange Date upon request by the account holder. Unless otherwise specified in such temporary Global Security, any such
exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary Global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Debt Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such
Person does not take delivery of such definitive Debt Securities in person at the offices of Global Exchange Agent. 
 (v) Until exchanged
in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Debt Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Debt Securities of the same series and of like tenor and terms authenticated and
delivered hereunder. 
 Section 305. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 

The Company shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be maintained by the Company in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 305 and Section 1002, with respect to the Debt Securities of each series, a register (herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Debt Securities and of transfers of Debt Securities. Pursuant to Section 301, the Company shall appoint, with respect to Debt Securities of each series, a “Security
Registrar” for the purpose of registering such Debt Securities and transfers and exchanges of such Debt Securities as herein provided. 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Debt Security of any series at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Debt Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination or denominations, of like
tenor and terms and aggregate principal amount. 
 At the option of the Holder, Debt Securities of any series may be exchanged for other
Debt Securities of the same series of any authorized form and denomination, of like tenor and terms and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Debt Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. 

Whenever any Debt Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Debt Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 If at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities of a
series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under
Section 303(h), the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Debt Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the
Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company’s election pursuant to Section 301(9) shall no longer be effective with respect to the Debt Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and
the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Debt Securities of such series, will 

  
 A-20 








 
authenticate and deliver, Debt Securities of such series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such
series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities. Neither the Trustee nor any agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary. 

The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Debt Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more
Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Debt Securities of
such series, will authenticate and deliver, Debt Securities of such series in definitive form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such series in exchange for such
Global Security or Securities. 
 If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 301 with respect to a series of Debt Securities, the
Depositary for such series of Debt Securities may surrender a Global Security for such series of Debt Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Debt Securities of such series of like tenor and terms and in definitive form on such terms as are
acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without charge to any Holder, 

(a) to each Person specified by such Depositary a new Debt Security or Securities of the same series, of like tenor and terms and of any
authorized denominations as requested by such person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Security; and 

(b) to such Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and terms and in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the
principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities delivered to Holders thereof. 

In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding paragraphs, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Debt
Securities in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. 
 Upon the exchange of a Global Security for Debt Securities in
definitive form, such Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Debt Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary
for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Debt Securities to the persons in whose names such Debt Securities are so
registered. 
 All Debt Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities shall be the valid obligations of
the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Debt Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

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

  
 A-21 








 No charge to any Holder shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Debt
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 transfer, registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities, other than exchanges
expressly provided in this Indenture to be made at the Company’s own expense or without expense or without charge to the Holders. 

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Debt Securities of any particular series to be
redeemed for a period of fifteen days preceding the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption of Debt Securities of such series selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or
(ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Debt Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of such Debt Security being redeemed in part. 

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

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

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its
discretion may, instead of issuing a new Debt Security, pay such Debt Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Debt 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 and printing
expenses) connected therewith. 
 Every new Debt Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost
or stolen Debt Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and any such new Debt Security shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Debt Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 

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 Debt Securities. 

  
 A-22 








 Section 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Interest on any Debt 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 Debt Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. At the option of the Company, payment of interest on any Debt Security may be
made by check in the currency designated for such payment pursuant to the terms of such Debt Security mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account in
such currency designated by such Person in writing not later than fifteen days prior to the date of such payment. 
 Any interest on any
Debt 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 registered 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 Debt 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 Debt Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money and/or Government Obligations the payments
of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment) will provide money in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without investment) be 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 and/or Government Obligations 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. Unless the Trustee is
acting as the Security Registrar, promptly after such Special Record Date, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with a list, or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee with respect thereto, of the names and addresses of, and principal
amounts of Debt Securities of such series held by, the Holders appearing on the Security Register at the close of business on such Special Record Date. In the name and at the expense of the Company, the Trustee 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 Debt Securities of such series at such Holder’s 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 mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Debt
Securities of such series (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 Debt Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any 

  
 A-23 








 
securities exchange on which the Debt 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, each Debt Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Debt Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by
such other Debt Security. 
 Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Debt Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or of the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Debt Security is registered as the owner of such Debt Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such
Debt Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Debt 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 Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

Section 309. Cancellation. 

Unless otherwise provided with respect to a series of Debt Securities, all Debt Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment,
transfer, exchange or credit against any sinking fund payment pursuant to this Indenture shall, if surrendered to the Company or any agent of the Company, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time
deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Debt Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Debt Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
Trustee. No Debt Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Debt Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Debt Securities held by the Trustee shall be
disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures. 
 Section 310. Computation of Interest. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Debt Securities of any series, interest on the Debt Securities of each
series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 311. Judgments. 

The Company agrees that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law and except as may otherwise be specified as contemplated in
Section 301, (a) the obligation, if any, of the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debt Securities of any 

  
 A-24 








 
series in a Foreign Currency, composite currency or Dollars (the “Designated Currency”) as may be specified pursuant to Section 301 is of the essence, and judgments in
respect of such Debt Securities shall be given in the Designated Currency; (b) the obligation of the Company to make payments in the Designated Currency of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Debt Securities shall,
notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the Designated Currency that the Holder receiving such payment may, in accordance with normal banking
procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any premium and cost of exchange) in the country of issue of the Designated Currency in the case of Foreign Currency or Dollars or in the international banking community in
the case of a composite currency on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such Holder receives such payment; (c) if the amount in the Designated Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount
originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and (d) any obligation of the Company not discharged by such payment shall be due as a separate and independent obligation and,
until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. 
 Section 312. CUSIP Numbers. 

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

Satisfaction and Discharge 

Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or
exchange of Debt Securities herein expressly provided for and rights to receive payments of principal and interest thereon and any right to receive additional amounts, as provided in Section 1005) and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture when 
 (1) either 

(A) all Debt Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Debt Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen
and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Debt Securities for whose payment money and/or Government Obligations have 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 cancelled or for cancellation; or 

  
 A-25 








 (B) all such Debt Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation 

(i) have become due and payable, or 

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

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by
the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of (B)(i), (B)(ii) or (B)(iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose
money and/or Government Obligations the payments of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment) will provide money in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without
investment) be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Debt Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any mandatory sinking fund, repayment or analogous payments thereon, on the scheduled
due dates therefor to the date of such deposit (in the case of Debt Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, if any, and all Repayment Dates (in the case of Debt Securities repayable at the
option of the Holders thereof); provided, however, that in the event a petition for relief under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law is filed with respect to the Company within 91 days after
the deposit, the obligations of the Company under the Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of such series shall not be deemed terminated or discharged, and in such event the Trustee shall be required to return the deposited money and
Government Obligations then held by the Trustee to the Company; 
 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable
hereunder by the Company; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each
stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607 and, if
money or Government Obligations shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall
survive. 
 Section 402. Application of Trust Money and Government Obligations. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 401, 403 or 1501 shall be held in trust and such money and the principal and interest received on such Government Obligations shall be applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Debt Securities and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and
interest for whose payment such money or Government Obligations have been deposited with the Trustee. 

  
 A-26 








 (b) The Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any
Government Obligations or money held by it as provided in Section 403 or 1501 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are
then in excess of the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited for the purpose for which such Government Obligations or money were deposited or received. 

(c) The Trustee shall deliver to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any Government Obligations held by it as provided in
Section 403 or 1501, provided that the Company in substitution therefor simultaneously delivers to the Trustee, money or other Government Obligations which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, would then be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s payment obligations in respect of the Debt Securities in the manner contemplated by Section 403 or 1501. 

Section 403. Satisfaction, Discharge and Defeasance of Debt Securities of any Series. 

If this Section 403 is specified, as contemplated by Section 301, to be applicable to Debt Securities of any series, then,
notwithstanding Section 401, (i) the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness on all the Outstanding Debt Securities of any such series; (ii) the provisions of this Indenture as it relates to such

any) and any installment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on such Debt Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal (and premium, if any) or installment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest or
(y) any mandatory sinking fund, repayment or analogous payments applicable to the Debt Securities of that series on that day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Debt Securities,
(B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Debt Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002, 1003 and 1005, and (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, including those under
Section 607 hereof); and (iii) the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall, upon Company Order, execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of such indebtedness, when 

(1) either 
 (A) with respect to
all Outstanding Debt Securities of such series, with reference to this Section 403, the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee irrevocably, as trust funds in trust, money and/or Government Obligations the payments of
principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment) will provide money in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without investment) be sufficient to pay and discharge
(i) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Outstanding Debt Securities of that series on the Stated Maturity of such principal or interest or, if such series may be redeemed by the Company prior to the Stated Maturity
thereof and the Company shall have given irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to effect such redemption, at the date fixed for such redemption pursuant to Article Eleven, and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments
applicable to Debt Securities of such series on the date on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Debt Securities; or

 (3) such deposit will not result in a breach of,
or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; 

(4) no Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 501(1), (2), (3), (6) or (7) with respect to the Debt Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit and no Event of Default under Section 501(6) or
Section 501(7) or event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default under Section 501(6) or Section 501(7) shall have occurred and be continuing on the 91st day after
such date; provided, however, that should that condition fail to be satisfied on or before such 91st day, the Trustee shall promptly, upon satisfactory receipt of evidence of such failure, return such deposit to the Company; 

(5) if the Debt Securities of that series are then listed on any domestic or foreign securities exchange, the Company shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit, defeasance and discharge will not cause such Debt Securities to be delisted; and 

(6) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness of all Outstanding Debt Securities have been complied with. 

Any deposits with the Trustee referred to in Section 403(1)(A) above shall be irrevocable and shall be made under the terms of an
escrow or trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee. If any Outstanding Debt Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption provisions or in accordance
with any mandatory sinking fund requirement, the applicable escrow or trust agreement shall provide therefor and the Company shall make such arrangements as are satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the
name, and at the expense, of the Company. 
 Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 403 with respect to all
the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series, the terms and conditions of such series, including the terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, shall no longer be binding upon, or applicable to, the Company; provided
that the Company shall not be discharged from any payment obligations in respect of Debt Securities of such series which are deemed not to be Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such obligations continue to be valid
obligations of the Company under applicable law. 
 Notwithstanding the cessation, termination and discharge of all obligations, covenants
and agreements (except as provided above in this Section 403) of the Company under this Indenture with respect to any series of Debt Securities, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607, and the obligations of
the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003, shall survive with respect to such series of Debt Securities.

 ARTICLE FIVE 

Remedies 

Section 501. Events of Default. 

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Debt Securities of any series, means any one of the following events
(whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law, pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or

Debt Security of such series at its Maturity; or 
 (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a

 (4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture
(other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of Debt Securities of a series
other than such series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 

(5) an event of default under any Debt by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (including a default with respect to Debt Securities of any
series other than that series), whether such Debt now exists or shall hereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in such Debt in an outstanding principal amount in excess of $50,000,000 becoming or being declared due and payable prior
to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, without such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled, or such Debt having been discharged, within a period of 30 days after there shall have been given, by registered or
certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such event of default and requiring the
Company to cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled or cause such Debt to be discharged and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 

(6) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company or any Significant Subsidiary a

 A-29 








 
or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary under any
applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of the Company’s or any
Significant Subsidiary’s property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the Company’s or any Significant Subsidiary’s affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order
unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 
 (7) the commencement by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of a
voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a
decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any
bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the
appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of the Company’s or any Significant
Subsidiary’s property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors generally, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary authorizing any such action; or 
 (8) any other Event of Default, if any, provided with respect to
Debt Securities of such series specified as contemplated by Section 301. 
 Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission
and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Debt 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 Outstanding Debt Securities of such series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Debt Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) of and all accrued but unpaid interest on all the Debt Securities of such series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. Upon payment of such amount, all obligations of the Company in respect of
the payment of principal of the Debt Securities of such series shall terminate. 

  
 A-30 








 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Debt 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 Debt Securities of such
series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
 (1) the Company
has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
 (A) all overdue installments of interest on all Debt Securities of such
series, 
 (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Debt Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by
such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Debt Securities, 
 (C) to the extent
that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Debt Securities, and 

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel; and 
 (2) all Events of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the
principal of Debt 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 Debt 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 (or premium, if any, on) any
Debt Security at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Debt Securities, the amount then due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal (and premium, if
any) and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in such Debt Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel. 
 If 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, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and 

  
 A-31 








 
may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Debt 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 Debt Securities, wherever situated. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Debt 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 Debt 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. 

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceedings, or any voluntary or involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter constituted, relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities of a particular series or the property of the
Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of such Debt 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 proceedings or otherwise, 

(1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Debt
Securities of such series and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 
 (2) to collect and receive any moneys or
other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to
the Trustee any amount due 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 any
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Debt Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Debt Securities. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Debt Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Debt Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be 

  
 A-32 








 
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 Debt Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

Section 506. Application of Money Collected. 

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee
and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Debt Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if
fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; 

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debt Securities, in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest,
respectively. The Holders of each series of Debt Securities denominated in Euro, any other composite currency or a Foreign Currency shall be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the amount determined by the Exchange Rate Agent by converting the
principal amount Outstanding of such series of Debt Securities and matured but unpaid interest on such series of Debt Securities in the currency in which such series of Debt Securities is denominated into Dollars at the Exchange Rate as of the date
of declaration of acceleration of the Maturity of the Debt Securities; and 
 THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company. 

Section 507. Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Debt Securities of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
 (1) such Holder has previously given
written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of such series; 
 (2) the Holders of not
less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such 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 indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has
failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during
such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or
by availing of, any 

  
 A-33 








 
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or
not such actions or forebearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders), or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and
for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
 Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal,
Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Debt Security shall have the right
which is absolute and unconditional to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Debt Security on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt
Security (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may be) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of
such Holder. 
 Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

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

Section 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity
or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Debt Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 512. Control by Holders of Debt
Securities. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt 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 Debt Securities of such series, provided, that 

  
 A-34 








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

(2) subject to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in
good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceedings so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders of Debt Securities of such series not joining in any 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 Debt Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of
all the Debt Securities of any such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default 

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debt 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 Debt 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 Debt Security by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have
agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having a 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 Company or the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders,
holding in the aggregate more than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any
Debt Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date, as the case may be). 

Section 515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law whenever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the 

  
 A-35 








 
covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

ARTICLE SIX 
 The
Trustee

 (b) In case an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under

 (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that 
 (1) this
Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section; 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, determined as provided in Sections 101, 104 and 512, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of such series; and 

  
 A-36 








 (4) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Securities of such series notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Debt Securities of
such series no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would
become, an Event of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series.

incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its
discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or

regardless of the form of action; 
 (j) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a

Securities and this Indenture; 
 (k) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without

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

 (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 compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and
counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
 (3) to indemnify
each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of
the Trustee), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, or any Holder or any other
Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Section, except to the extent that such loss, damage, claim, liability or expense is
due to its own negligence or bad faith. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnification
pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture. The Company shall be entitled to participate in, and to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense of such claim, with counsel satisfactory to the Trustee (and the Trustee shall cooperate in
the defense thereof), and after notice from the Company to the Trustee of the Company’s election so to assume the defense thereof, the Company shall not be liable to the Trustee under this Indenture for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by the Trustee in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable 

  
 A-39 








 
costs of investigation; provided, however, that the Trustee may only employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company if in the judgment of the Trustee (i) a conflict of interest exists
by reason of common representation or (ii) there are legal defenses available to the Trustee that are different from or are in addition to those available to the Company or if all parties commonly represented do not agree as to the action (or
inaction) of counsel. The Company shall not be obligated under any settlement agreement relating to any claim under this Indenture to which it has not agreed in writing. 

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section the Trustee shall have a claim prior to the Debt
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 (and premium, if any) or interest on particular Debt Securities. 

The provisions of this Section 607 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Indenture. 

Section 608. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 

If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate
such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest
with respect to Debt Securities of any series by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to any particular series of Debt Securities. 

Section 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as
such and organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, 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; provided, however, that if Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Trust Indenture Act at any time permit a
corporation organized and doing business under the laws of any other jurisdiction to serve as trustee of an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, this Section 609 shall be automatically amended to permit a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of any such other jurisdiction to serve as Trustee hereunder. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

Section 610. 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 611. 

  
 A-40 








 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Debt 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, at the
expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Debt Securities of any series by the Company or by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 
 (d) If at any
time: 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series after written request
therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of such series for at least six months, or 

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 with respect to any series of Debt Securities 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 with respect to any
series of Debt Securities or a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall have been entered in respect of the Trustee in an involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or
any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; or a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall have been entered for the appointment of a receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator or other similar official of the Trustee or of its property or affairs, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation, winding up or
liquidation, or 
 (4) the Trustee shall commence a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or
any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Trustee or
its property or affairs, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or shall take corporate action in furtherance of any such action, 

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to such series at any time or (ii) subject to
Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of any series for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee for the Debt Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee. In addition, the Company may remove the Trustee if the Company shall determine by a Board Resolution that the services provided by the Trustee hereunder
may be obtained at a substantially lower cost 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 removal, the Trustee that is to be
removed may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series. 

  
 A-41 








 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting with respect to any
series of Debt Securities, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Debt Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Debt 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 Debt Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy,
a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt 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 Debt Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If
no successor Trustee with respect to the Debt 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 Debt
Security of such series for at least six months may, subject to Section 514, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Debt Securities of such series. 
 (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the
Debt Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Debt Securities of such
series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In the case of an appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Debt Securities, every such successor Trustee so
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 due under Section 607 hereof, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all
property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 
 (b) In the case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Debt Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee upon payment of its charges and each successor Trustee with respect to the Debt 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, 

  
 A-42 








 
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debt 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 Debt 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 Debt Securities of
that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate
the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee
of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debt
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on the 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 Debt Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 

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

(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 612. 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 of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the executing or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Debt Securities shall have been authenticated, but not
delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion, consolidation or sale to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Debt Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such
successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Debt Securities. In case any Debt Securities shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Debt Securities, in either its
own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee. 

Section 613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

If and when the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Debt Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). 

  
 A-43 








 Section 614. Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee shall upon Company Request appoint one or more Authenticating Agents (including, without limitation, the Company or any Affiliate
thereof) with respect to one or more series of Debt Securities which shall be authorized on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Debt Securities of such series in connection with the issue, delivery, registration of transfer, exchange,
partial redemption or repayment of such Debt Securities. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication of Debt Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the Company and must be a
corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any State or the District of Columbia, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. 
 Any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business of an
authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent. 

An authenticating agent may at any time resign with respect to one or more series of Debt Securities by giving written notice of resignation
to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any authenticating agent with respect to one or more series of Debt Securities by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the
Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor
authenticating agent. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating
agent herein. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Company
agrees to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time compensation for its services under this Section. 
 The provisions of
Sections 104, 111, 306, 309, 603, 604 and 605 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent. 

  
 A-44 








 Pursuant to each appointment made under this Section, the Debt Securities of each series covered
by such appointment may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 

This is one of the Debt Securities, of the series designated herein, described in the within-mentioned Indenture. 

 

							
		  		    	[            ]
				
		  		    	By	  	 
		  		    		  	As Authenticating Agent for the Trustee
				
	Dated:	  	 	    	By

determine whether such filing has occurred). 
 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational

 (16) to make any
other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture, provided that such actions pursuant to this clause (18) shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders, as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company. 
 Section 902. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. 

With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series affected by
such supplemental indenture, acting together as a class, 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

 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 Debt Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Debt 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 Debt Securities of any other series.

 ARTICLE TEN 

Covenants 

Section 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Debt Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on the Debt Securities in accordance with the terms of the Debt Securities and this Indenture. 

Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Debt Securities an office or agency where Debt Securities may be
presented or surrendered for payment, where Debt Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Debt Securities and this Indenture may be served. The
Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices or demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of such Place of
Payment) where the Debt Securities of one or more series (subject to the preceding paragraph) 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 each Place of Payment for any series of Debt Securities for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
 Section 1003.
Money for Debt Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect
to any series of Debt Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debt Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or
failure so to act. 
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents with respect to any series of Debt Securities, it will, on
or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debt Securities of such series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming
due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.


  
 A-51 








 The Company will cause each Paying Agent with respect to any series of Debt 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) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Debt 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 Debt Securities of such series) in the making of
any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Debt 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 terminating its obligations under this Indenture with respect to Debt Securities of any series
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. 

Any principal and interest received on the Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee or any money deposited with the Trustee or any
Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Debt Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest
has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Debt 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 (including the principal and interest received on Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee), and all liability of the
Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 
 Section 1004. Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if, in the judgment of the Company, the preservation thereof is no longer
desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section shall not prohibit or
restrict the Company from converting into a different form of legal entity. 
 Section 1005. Payment of Additional Amounts. 

If the Debt Securities of a series expressly provide for the payment of additional amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Debt
Security of any series additional amounts upon the 

  
 A-52 








 
terms and subject to the conditions provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or
in respect of, any Debt Security of any series or the net proceeds received from the sale or exchange of any Debt Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts provided for in the terms
of such Debt Securities and this Section to the extent that, in such context, additional amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section and express mention of the payment of additional
amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding additional amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made. 

If the Debt Securities of a series provide for the payment of additional amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date
with respect to that series of Debt Securities (or if the Debt Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal (and premium, if any) is made), and at least 10 days prior to each
date of payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, the Company will furnish the Trustee and the Company’s
principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the
Debt Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Debt Securities of that series who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Debt Securities of that
series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Debt Securities and the Company will pay to the Trustee
or such Paying Agent the additional amounts, if any, required by the terms of such Debt Securities and the first paragraph of this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against,
any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this
Section. 
 Section 1006. Officer’s Certificate as to Compliance. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee not more than 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the
fiscal year ending [            ]) a brief certificate from the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of the Company as to his or her knowledge of the
Company’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture), and, if he or she has knowledge of any
default, specifying each such default of which the signer has knowledge and the nature thereof. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 

Redemption of Debt Securities 

Section 1101. Applicability of Article. 

Debt 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 Debt Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. 

  
 A-53 








 Section 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 

The election of the Company to redeem any Debt Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election
of the Company of less than all of the Debt Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee in writing
of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount and the tenor and terms of the Debt Securities of any series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Debt Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided
in the terms of such Debt Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

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

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Debt Securities of any series, if less than all the Debt Securities of
any series with like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the particular Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series with like
tenor and terms not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities
of such series or any integral multiple thereof which is also an authorized denomination) of the principal amount of Debt Securities (if issued in more than one authorized denomination) of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum
authorized denomination for Debt Securities of such series. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Debt
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Debt 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 Debt Securities shall
relate, in the case of any Debt Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Debt Security which has been or is to be redeemed. 

Section 1104. Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption
Date, to each Holder of Debt Securities to be redeemed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, redemption notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if such notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Debt Securities or a
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Notice of any redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. The Trustee shall give notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the
Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the
Trustee give such notice at the Company’s expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items. 

  
 A-54 








 All notices of redemption shall state: 

(1) the Redemption Date, 
 (2) the
Redemption Price, 
 (3) if less than all Outstanding Debt Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case
of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Debt Securities to be redeemed, 
 (4) that on the Redemption Date the
Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Debt Security to be redeemed, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

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

(6) the Place or Places of Payment where such Debt Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 

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

(8) the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code number, if any, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP, ISIN or
Common Code number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Debt Securities, and 
 (9) the section of this Indenture and the
paragraph of the Debt Securities, as applicable, pursuant to which the Debt Securities are to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption of Debt
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. 

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 and/or Government Obligations the payments of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment) will provide money on or prior
to the Redemption Date in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without investment) be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Debt Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 1106.
Debt Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, unless the notice of redemption
is subject to one or more conditions precedent which have not been satisfied, the Debt Securities to be 

  
 A-55 








 
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 Debt Securities shall cease to bear interest and, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Debt Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Debt
Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Debt Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date
shall be payable to the Holders of such Debt Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 

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

Section 1107. Debt Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Any Debt Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company, the Security
Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Debt Security without service charge, a new Debt Security or Debt Securities of the same series and of like tenor and terms,
of any authorized denominations as requested by such Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Debt Security so surrendered. 

Section 1108. Open Market Purchases. 

In addition to the foregoing, the Company may at any time and from time to time purchase Debt Securities of a series in the open market or
otherwise, subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws. 
 ARTICLE TWELVE 

Sinking Funds 

Section 1201. Applicability of Article. 

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Debt Securities of a series except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Debt Securities of such series. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided
for by the terms of Debt 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 Debt Securities of any series is herein
referred to an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of any series, the 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 Debt Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of such series. 

  
 A-56 








 Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Debt Securities. 

The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Debt Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may
apply as a credit Debt Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms
of such Debt Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Debt Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities as provided for by the terms of
such series; provided that such Debt Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Debt Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Debt Securities for redemption
through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Debt Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 1202, the principal
amount of Debt Securities to be redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Debt Securities for redemption, except upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the
Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the Company from time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so
being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Debt Securities purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company. 

Section 1203. Redemption of Debt Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Debt Securities (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory
to the Trustee), the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ 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, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by crediting Debt Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202 and the basis for any such credit and, prior to or concurrently with the delivery of such
Officers’ Certificate, will also deliver to the Trustee any Debt Securities to be so credited and not theretofore delivered to the Trustee. Not less than 30 days (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) before each
such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Debt 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 Debt Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1105, 1106 and 1107. 

ARTICLE THIRTEEN 

Repayment at the Option of Holders 

Section 1301. Applicability of Article.

 Section 1302. Repayment of Debt Securities. 

Each Debt Security which is subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holder thereof on a Repayment Date shall be repaid
at the applicable Repayment Price together with interest accrued to such Repayment Date as specified pursuant to Section 301. 

Section 1303. Exercise of Option; Notice.

be irrevocable, shall specify the principal amount of such Debt Security to be repaid, which shall be equal to the minimum authorized denomination for such Debt Security or an integral multiple thereof, and shall identify the Debt Security to be
repaid and, in the case of a partial repayment of the Debt Security, shall specify the denomination or denominations of the Debt Security or Debt Securities of the same series to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal of the Debt
Security surrendered which is not to be repaid. 
 The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without service
charge to the Holder of any Debt Security so surrendered a new Debt Security or Debt Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified in the foregoing notice, in an aggregate principal amount equal to any portion of the
principal of the Debt Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise
requires, all provisions relating to the repayment of Debt Securities shall relate, in the case of any Debt Security repaid or to be repaid only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Debt Security which has been or is to be repaid. 

Section 1304. Election of Repayment by Remarketing Entities. 

The Company may elect, with respect to Debt Securities of any series which are repayable at the option of the Holders thereof before their
Stated Maturity, at any time prior to any Repayment Date to designate one or more Remarketing Entities to purchase, at a price equal to the Repayment Price, Debt Securities of such series from the Holders thereof who give notice and surrender their
Debt Securities in accordance with Section 1303. 
 Section 1305. Securities Payable on the Repayment Date. 

Notice of exercise of the option of repayment having been given and the Debt Securities so to be repaid having been surrendered as aforesaid,
such Debt Securities shall, unless purchased in accordance with Section 1304, on the Repayment Date become due and payable at the price therein specified and from and after the Repayment Date such Debt Securities shall cease to bear interest
and shall be paid on the Repayment Date, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such price in which case the Company shall continue to be obligated for the principal amount of such Debt Securities and shall be obligated to pay interest
on such principal amount at the rate borne by such Debt Securities from time to time until payment in full of such principal amount.
