	 	2.1 	Form, Dating and Denominations; Legends 

  

	 	2.1.1	The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A. The terms and provisions contained in the form of the

 12 









	 	2.1.2	   

  

	 	(i) 	Except as otherwise provided in clause 2.1.3 below or clause 2.9.2(iv), each Initial Note or Additional Note will bear the Restricted Legend. 

  

	 	(ii) 	Each Global Note, whether or not an Initial Note or Additional Note, will bear the DTC Legend. 

  

	 	(iii) 	Initial Notes and Additional Notes offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S will be issued as provided herein. 

  

	 	(iv) 	Initial Notes and Additional Notes offered and sold in reliance on any exception under the Securities Act other than Regulation S and Rule 144A will be issued, and upon the request
of the Company to the Trustee, Initial Notes offered and sold in reliance on Rule 144A may be issued, in the form of Certificated Notes. 

  

	 	2.1.3 	If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale
pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) and that the Restricted Legend is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected
in compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may instruct the Trustee in writing to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note of like tenor and amount, registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or
its transferee), that does not bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction. 

  

	 	2.1.4 	By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Restricted Legend (or any beneficial interest in such a Note), each Holder thereof and each owner of a beneficial interest therein
acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note (and any such beneficial interest) set forth in this Indenture and in the Restricted Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note (and any such beneficial interest) only in accordance with
the Indenture and such legend. 

  

	 	2.2 	Execution and Authentication; Additional Notes 

  

	 	2.2.1 	An Officer shall execute the Notes for the Company by facsimile or manual signature in the name and on behalf of the Company. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no
longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note will still be valid. 

  

	 	2.2.2 	A Note will not be valid until the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent (manually or by facsimile) signs the certificate of authentication on the Note, with the signature
constituting conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under the Indenture. 

  

 13 









	 	2.2.3 	At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of the Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent for authentication. The Trustee or the Authenticating Agent will authenticate and deliver: 

  

	 	(i)	Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed US$300 million; and 

  

	 	(ii)	additional Notes from time to time for original issue in aggregate principal amounts specified by the Company, which Additional Notes will be treated as a single class with the
Initial Notes issued under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; 

     after the following condition has been met: 
 Receipt by the Trustee
of an Officers’ Certificate specifying: 
  

	 	(a) 	the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated; 

  

	 	(b) 	whether the Notes are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes; 

  

	 	(c) 	in the case of Additional Notes, that the issuance of such Notes does not contravene any provision of Section 4; 

  

	 	(d) 	whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more Global Notes or Certificated Notes; and 

  

	 	(e) 	other information the Company may determine to include or the Trustee may reasonably request. 

  

	 	2.3	Registrar, Paying Agent and Authenticating Agent; Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust 

  

	 	2.3.1 	The Company may appoint one or more Registrars and one or more Paying Agents, and the Trustee may appoint, with a copy of any such appointment to the Company, an
Authenticating Agent, in which case each reference in the Indenture to the Trustee in respect of the obligations of the Trustee to be performed by that Agent will be deemed to be references to that Agent. The Company may act as Registrar or (except
for purposes of Section 8) Paying Agent. In each case the Company and the Trustee will enter into an appropriate agreement with that Agent implementing the provisions of the Indenture relating to the obligations of the Trustee to be performed
by the Agent and the related rights. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and as a Paying Agent. The Registrar shall provide to the Company a current copy of such register from time to time upon written request of the Company. The
Company hereby appoints upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth (i) The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd., acting through its London branch, as Principal Paying Agent, located and domiciled in Japan, where Notes may be
presented for payment and (ii) J.P. Morgan Bank Luxembourg S.A., as Luxembourg Paying Agent at any time that the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, located in Luxembourg where Notes may be presented for payment. If, and for so
long as, the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and its rules so require, the Company will publish a notice of any change of Paying Agent in a newspaper having a general circulation in Luxembourg. 

  

 14 









	 	2.3.2 	The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee
all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and will promptly notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all
money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require the Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the
Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent will have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee. 

  

	 	2.3.3 	Each payment in full of principal, redemption amount, Additional Amounts and/or interest payable under the Notes and this Indenture in respect of any Note made by or on
behalf of the Company to or to the order of the Principal Paying Agent in the manner specified herein or in the Notes on the date due shall be valid and effective to satisfy and discharge the obligation of the Company to make payment of principal,
redemption amount, Additional Amounts and/or interest payable hereunder and under the Notes on such date; provided, however, that the liability of the Principal Paying Agent hereunder shall not exceed any amounts paid to it by the Company, or held
by it on behalf of the Holders hereunder; and provided further that, in the event that there is a default by the Principal Paying Agent in any payment of principal, redemption amount, Additional Amounts and/or interest in respect of any Note in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Company shall pay on demand such further amounts as will result in receipt by the Holders of such amounts as would have been received by it had no such default occurred. 

  

	 	2.3.4 	The Paying Agent shall comply with any applicable backup withholding tax and information reporting requirements under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder with respect to payments made under the Notes. 

  

	 	2.4 	Replacement Notes 

 If a mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Trustee or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company will issue and the Trustee will authenticate, upon provision of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee that such Note was lost,
destroyed or wrongfully taken, a replacement Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity must be furnished that is sufficient in the judgment of both the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company and the Trustee from any loss they may suffer if a Note is replaced.
The Company may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Company and the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case the mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion
may pay the Note instead of issuing a replacement Note. 
  

 15 









	 	2.5	Outstanding Notes 

  

	 	2.5.1 	Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for: 

  

	 	(i) 	Notes cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to it for cancellation; 

  

	 	(ii) 	any Note which has been replaced pursuant to Section 2.4 unless and until the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a
bona fide purchaser; and 

  

	 	(iii) 	on or after the maturity date or any redemption date or date for purchase of the Notes pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, those Notes payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that
date for which the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds money sufficient to pay all amounts then due thereunder. 

  

	 	2.5.2 	A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or one of its Affiliates holds the Note, PROVIDED that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite
principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company will be disregarded and deemed
not to be outstanding (it being understood that in determining whether the Trustee is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only Notes in respect of which the Trustee
has received written notice from the Company that such Notes are so owned will be so disregarded). Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the
pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. 

  

	 	2.6 	Temporary Notes 

 Until definitive Notes are ready
for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be
appropriate by the Officer executing the temporary Notes, as evidenced by the execution of the temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared as necessary. After the preparation of definitive
Notes, the temporary Notes will be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.2, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender
for cancellation of any temporary Notes the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes will
be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as definitive Notes. 
  

 16 









	 	2.7	Cancellation 

 The Company at any time may, but
shall not be obliged to, deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes
previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold. Any Registrar or Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee will cancel all Notes surrendered for
transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of them in accordance with its normal procedures or the written instructions of the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid in full or delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation. 
  

	 	2.8	CUSIP and ISIN Numbers 

 The Company in issuing the
Notes may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and the Trustee will use CUSIP numbers or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase as a convenience to Holders, the notice to state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN
numbers. 
  

	 	2.9	Registration, Transfer and Exchange 

  

	 	2.9.1	The Notes will be issued in registered form only, without coupons, and the Company shall cause the Trustee to maintain a register (the “Register”) of the
Notes, for registering the record ownership of the Notes by the Holders and transfers and exchanges of the Notes. 

  

	 	2.9.2	   

  

	 	(i)	Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend.


  

	 	(ii)	Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary. Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers
thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (1) as set forth in clause 2.9.2(iv) and (2) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon request
of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this Section and
Section 2.10. 

  

 17 









	 	(iii)	Agent Members will have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the
Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person
(including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between
the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security. 

  

	 	(iv)	If (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company
within 90 days of the notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a request from the Depositary, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more
Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depositary, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed
cancelled. If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend. If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange
therefor will bear the Restricted Legend. 

  

	 	2.9.3	Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the holder thereof or its nominee. 

  

	 	2.9.4	A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Note or Notes of any
authorized denomination by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by Section 2.10.
The Trustee will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register maintained by the Trustee for the purpose; PROVIDED that: 

  

	 	(i)	no transfer or exchange will be effective until it is registered in such register; and 

  


	 	(ii)	 the Trustee will not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed
or purchased pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so 



  

 18 









	 	 
selected for redemption or purchase in whole or in part, except, in the case of a partial redemption or purchase, that portion of any Note not being redeemed
or purchased, or (iii) if a redemption or a purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase is to occur after a Regular Record Date but on or before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, to register the transfer of or exchange any Note on or after
the Regular Record Date and before the date of redemption or purchase. Prior to the registration of any transfer, the Company, the Trustee and their agents will treat the Person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner and Holder thereof
for all purposes (whether or not the Note is overdue), and will not be affected by notice to the contrary. 


 From time to
time the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate Additional Notes as necessary in order to permit the registration of a transfer or exchange in accordance with this Section. 
 No service charge will be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than a transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchange pursuant to clause 2.9.2(iv)). 
  

	 	2.9.5	   

  

	 	(i)	Global Note to Global Note 

 If a beneficial
interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal
amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in
another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to
all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest. 
  

	 	(ii)	Global Note to Certificated Note 

 If a beneficial
interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (y) deliver
one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of
such transferee or owner, as applicable. 
  

 19 









	 	(iii)	Certificated Note to Global Note 

 If a
Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Certificated Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount
of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the cancelled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized
denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the cancelled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 
  

	 	(iv)	Certificated Note to Certificated Note 

 If a
Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel the Certificated Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations
having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the cancelled Certificated Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of
such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the cancelled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Notes in authorized
denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the cancelled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 
  

	 	2.10 	Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange 

  

	 	2.10.1	The transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.10 and Section 2.9 and, in the case of a
Global Note (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with the preceding sentence.


  

	 	2.10.2	Subject to paragraph (c), the transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) of the type set forth in column A below for a Note (or a beneficial interest
therein) of the type set forth opposite column B below may only be made in compliance with the certification requirements (if any) described in the clause of this paragraph set forth opposite column C below.

	 	(ii)	The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee a duly completed and executed Regulation S Certificate; PROVIDED that if the
requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required. 

  

	 	(iii)	The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (x) a duly completed and executed Rule 144A Certificate or (y) a duly
completed and executed Regulation S Certificate, and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer or exchange is being made in compliance
with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States; PROVIDED that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no
certification is required. In the event that (i) a duly completed and executed Regulation S Certificate is delivered to the Trustee or (ii) a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend is surrendered for transfer or
exchange, upon transfer or exchange the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend. 

  

	 	(iv)	The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee a duly completed and executed Rule 144A Certificate. 

  

	 	2.10.3 	No certification is required in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) after such Note is eligible for resale pursuant to
Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or a successor provision); PROVIDED that the Company has provided the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and the Company may require from any Person requesting a transfer or exchange in
reliance upon this clause an Opinion of Counsel and any other reasonable certifications and evidence in order to support such certificate. 

  

 21 









	 	    	Any Certificated Note delivered in reliance upon this paragraph will not bear the Restricted Legend. 

  

	 	2.10.4	The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the transfer or exchange of a Note (or a beneficial interest
therein), and the Company will have the right to inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice within a reasonable period of time to the Trustee. 

  

	3	Additional Amounts; Redemption; Offer to Purchase 

  

	 	3.1	Additional Amounts 

  

	 	3.1.1	All payments by the Company in respect of the Notes will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments, or
other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Brazil, or any authority therein or thereof in the case of payments under the Notes unless the Company is required by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties,
assessments, or governmental charges. In such event, the Company will make such deduction or withholding, make payment of the amount so withheld to the appropriate governmental authority and pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure
that the net amounts receivable by Holders of Notes after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest which would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or
deduction (“Additional Amounts”). 

  

	 	    	No such Additional Amounts shall be payable: 

  

	 	(i)	to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges in respect of such note by reason of the existence of any
present or former connection between such Holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership, or a corporation) and Brazil, including, without limitation,
such Holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent
establishment therein, other than the mere holding of the Note or enforcement of rights and the receipt of payments with respect to the Note; 

  

	 	(ii)	in respect of Notes surrendered (if surrender is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that payments under such Note would have been subject to
withholdings and the Holder of such Note would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts, on surrender of such Note for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days; 

  

 22 









	 	(iii) 	where such Additional Amount is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to
conform to, any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings; 

  

	 	(iv)	to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges by reason of such Holder’s failure to comply with
any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with Brazil, or a successor jurisdiction or applicable political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having power
to tax, of such Holder, if (1) compliance is required by such jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having power to tax, as a precondition to, exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, the tax, assessment
or other governmental charge and (2) the Company has given the Holders at least 30 days’ notice that Holders will be required to provide such certification, identification or other requirement; 

  

	 	(v)	in respect of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, excise or personal property or similar tax, assessment or governmental charge; 


 

	 	(vi)	in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments of principal of or interest on the Note or by
direct payment by the Company in respect of claims made against the Company; or 

  

	 	(vii) 	in respect of any combination of the above. 

  

	 	3.1.2	No Additional Amounts shall be paid with respect to any payment on a Note to a Holder who is a fiduciary, a partnership, a limited liability company or other than the sole
beneficial owner of that payment to the extent that payment would be required by the laws of Brazil or any political subdivision thereof to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a
member of that partnership, an interestholder in a limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder. The Notes are
subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or regulation or administrative or judicial interpretation. Except as specifically provided above, the Company shall not be required to make a payment with respect to any tax, assessment or
governmental charge imposed by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. 

  

 23 









	 	3.1.3	In the event that Additional Amounts actually paid with respect to the Notes are based on rates of deduction or withholding of withholding taxes in excess of the appropriate rate
applicable to the Holder of such Notes, and, as a result thereof such Holder is entitled to make claim for a refund or credit of such excess from the authority imposing such withholding tax, then such Holder shall, by accepting such Notes, be deemed
to have assigned and transferred all right, title, and interest to any such claim for a refund or credit of such excess to the Company. 

  

	 	3.1.4	Any reference in this Indenture or the Notes to principal, interest or any other amount payable in respect of the Notes by the Company will be deemed also to refer to any Additional
Amount, unless the context requires otherwise, that may be payable with respect to that amount under the obligations referred to in this Section. The foregoing obligation will survive termination or discharge of the Indenture.


  

	 	3.2	No Optional Redemption 

 Except as set forth in
Section 3.3, the Notes are not redeemable by the Company prior to their Stated Maturity. 
  

	 	3.3	Redemption for Taxation Reasons 

 If as a result of
any change in or amendment to the laws (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of Brazil or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any amendment to or change in an official interpretation,
administration or application of such laws, treaties, rules, or regulations (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective or, in the case of a change in official position, is announced on or
after the issue date of the Notes or on or after the date a successor assumes the obligations under the Notes, the Company has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in excess of the Additional Amounts the Company would be obligated to
pay if payments were subject to withholding or deduction at a rate of 15 per cent. or at a rate of 25 per cent. in case the Holder of the Notes is resident in a tax haven jurisdiction (i.e., countries which do not impose any income tax or
which impose it at a maximum rate lower than 20 per cent. or where the laws impose restrictions on the disclosure of ownership composition or securities ownership) as a result of the taxes, duties, assessments and other governmental charges
described above (the “Minimum Withholding Level”), the Company may, at its option, redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100 per cent. of their principal amount, together with interest
accrued to the date fixed for redemption, upon publication of irrevocable notice to Holders not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. No notice of such redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to
the earliest date on which the Company would, but for such redemption, be obligated to pay the Additional Amounts above the Minimum Withholding Level. The Company shall not have the right to so redeem the Notes in the event it becomes obliged to pay
Additional Amounts which are less than the Additional Amounts payable at the Minimum Withholding Level. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not have the right to so redeem 

  

 24 








 
the Notes unless: (i) it has taken reasonable measures to avoid the obligation to pay Additional Amounts; and (ii) it has complied with all
necessary regulations of the Central Bank to legally effect such redemption. For the avoidance of doubt, reasonable procedures shall not include the Company changing or moving jurisdictions. The Trustee agrees to provide the Company with any
necessary document that may be required by the Central Bank in order to obtain any Central Bank approval that is necessary in order to redeem the Notes. 
  

	 	3.4	Method and Effect of Redemption 

 In the event that
the Company elects to so redeem the Notes, it will deliver to the Trustee: (i) a certificate, signed in the name of the Company by any two of its executive officers or by its attorney-in-fact in accordance with its bylaws, stating that the
Company is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to their terms and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the condition or conditions precedent to the right of the Company to so redeem have occurred or been satisfied; and (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in excess of the Additional Amounts payable at the Minimum Withholding Level as a result of the change or amendment, that the Company cannot
avoid payment of such excess Additional Amounts by taking reasonable measures available to it and that all governmental requirements necessary for the Company to effect the redemption have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, reasonable
procedures shall not include the Company changing or moving jurisdictions.

	 	(iv)	an expiration date (the “expiration date”) not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date of the offer, and a settlement date for purchase (the

	 	(ix)	interest on any Note not tendered, or tendered but not purchased by the Company pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, will continue to accrue; 

  

	 	(x)	on the purchase date the purchase price will become due and payable on each Note accepted for purchase, and interest on Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and after the
purchase date; 

  

	 	(xi)	Holders are entitled to withdraw Notes tendered by giving notice, which must be received by the Company or the Trustee not later than the close of business on the expiration date,
setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the tendered Notes, the certificate number of the tendered Notes and a statement that the Holder is withdrawing all or a portion of the tender; 

  

 26 









	 	(xii)	(x) if Notes in an aggregate principal amount less than or equal to the purchase amount are duly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, the Company will
purchase all such Notes, and (y) if the Offer to Purchase is for less than all of the outstanding Notes and Notes in an aggregate principal amount in excess of the purchase amount are tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the offer, the
Company will purchase Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the purchase amount on a pro rata basis, with adjustments so that only Notes with minimum denominations of US$100,000 and in multiples of US$1,000 principal amount will be
purchased;

	 	3.5.3	Prior to the purchase date, the Company will accept tendered Notes for purchase as required by the Offer to Purchase and deliver to the Trustee all Notes so accepted, together with
an Officers’ Certificate specifying which Notes have been accepted for purchase. On the purchase date the purchase price will become due and payable on each Note accepted for purchase, and interest on Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and
after the purchase date. The Trustee will promptly return to Holders any Notes not accepted for purchase and send to Holders new Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes accepted for purchase in part.


  

	 	3.5.4	The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws in making any Offer to Purchase, and the above procedures will be deemed modified as
necessary to permit such compliance. 

  

	 	3.5.5	The Company will timely repay Debt or obtain consents all as necessary under, or terminate, any agreements or instruments that would otherwise prohibit an Offer to Purchase required
to be made pursuant to the Indenture. 

  

	 	3.5.6	The Company will obtain all necessary consents and approvals from the Central Bank of Brazil for the remittance of funds outside of Brazil.

notify the Trustee in writing of its compliance with this paragraph. 

  

	 	4.1.2	An installment of principal or interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or any Affiliate of the Company) holds on
that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. If the Company or any Affiliate of the Company acts as a Paying Agent, an installment of principal or interest will be considered paid on the due date only if paid to the Holders.


  

	 	4.1.3	The Company agrees to pay interest on overdue principal, and to the extent lawful, overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum specified in the Notes (1 per cent. per
annum in excess of the rate per annum borne by the Notes). 

  

	 	4.1.4	Payments in respect of the Notes represented by the Global Notes are to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary, as the
Holders of the Global Notes. With respect to Certificated Notes all payments shall be payable at the office of the Principal Paying Agent. 

  

	 	4.2	Maintenance of Office or Agency 

 The Company will
maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect
of the Notes and the Indenture may be served. The Company hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as such office of the Company. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change
in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or
served to the Trustee. At any time that the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the Company will maintain an office or agent in Luxembourg to serve as Transfer Agent. The Company initially designates J.P. Morgan Bank Luxembourg S.A.
as the Transfer Agent. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be
surrendered or presented for any of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such
other office or agency.

time, any of the Company’s Subsidiaries constitutes a Significant Subsidiary, then the Company shall promptly cause such Significant Subsidiary to guarantee, on an unsecured basis, all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes and the
Indenture by executing a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B.

violation by such Significant Subsidiary of any then-existing agreement to which it is party. 
 The guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary
will terminate upon: 
 (i) a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) by the Company of all or any portion of
the Capital Stock of such Significant Subsidiary, or the sale or disposition of assets of such Significant Subsidiary, in each case that results in such Subsidiary no longer constituting a Significant Subsidiary; or 
 (ii) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as described in Section 8.

	 	4.16.1 	The Company will not, and will not permit its Subsidiaries to, sell, lease or otherwise transfer any Property or assets to, or purchase, lease or otherwise acquire any Property or
assets from, or otherwise engage in any other transactions involving an aggregate amount in excess of US$1.0 million (or the equivalent thereof at the time of determination) with, any Affiliates that are not its Subsidiaries (each, a
“Related Party Transaction”), except transactions at prices and on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company, or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from
unrelated third parties. 

  

	 	4.16.2 	 In any Related Party Transaction or series of Related Party Transactions with an aggregate value in excess of US$1.0 million (or the equivalent thereof at the time
of determination), the Company must first deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that such transaction or series of related transactions are on fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company, or its
Subsidiaries than could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction and is otherwise compliant with the terms of this Indenture. In any Related Party Transaction or series of Related Party Transactions with an aggregate value in excess
of US$5.0 million (or the equivalent thereof at the time of determination), the Company must first 



  

 36 









	 	 
deliver to the Trustee a certificate from the Company’s Board of Directors (or equivalent body) to the effect that such transaction or series of related
transactions are on fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company, or its Subsidiaries than could be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction and is otherwise compliant with the terms of this Indenture. Prior to entering
into any Related Party Transaction or series of Related Party Transactions with an aggregate value in excess of US$15.0 million (or the equivalent thereof at the time of determination), the Company must in addition obtain and deliver to the Trustee
a favorable written opinion from an independent nationally recognized Brazilian or internationally recognized investment banking, auditing or consulting firm as to the fairness of the transaction to the Company, and its Subsidiaries, and to any of
its Affiliates from a financial point of view. 


  

	 	4.17	Line of Business 

 The Company will not, and will
not permit any of its respective Subsidiaries, to engage in any business other than a Permitted Business, except to an extent that so doing would not be material to the Company, and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The Company will not cease or
threaten to cease to carry on all or any substantial part of its business. 
  

	 	4.18	Financial Reports 

  

	 	4.18.1	 The Company shall furnish to the Trustee (and will also provide the Trustee with sufficient copies of the following reports referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) below
for distribution, at the Company’s expense, to all holders of Notes) and to the Luxembourg Paying Agent: 

  

	 	(i)	as soon as available and in any event by no later than 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, annual audited consolidated financial statements in English of the
Company, prepared in accordance with GAAP and accompanied by an opinion of internationally recognized independent public accountants selected by the Company, which opinion shall be based upon an examination made in accordance with GAAP;

submission by) the Company with the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange on which the Notes may be listed (in each case, to the extent that any such report or notice is generally available to its security holders or the public in
Brazil). 

  

 37 








 In addition, the Company will make the information and reports available to securities analysts and
prospective investors upon request. For so long as any of the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange require, copies of such information will also be available during normal business hours at the office of
the Luxembourg Paying Agent. 
  

	 	4.18.2 	Delivery of these reports and information to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of them will not constitute constructive notice of any
information contained therein or determinable for information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).


  

	 	4.19	Reports to Trustee 

  

	 	4.19.1 	The Company will deliver, simultaneously with the delivery of each set of financial statements and financial information referred to in clauses 4.18.1 (i) and (ii), an
Officer’s Certificate stating that the officer has conducted or supervised a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their performance under the Indenture and that to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company has
fulfilled its obligations hereunder or, if there has been an Event of Default or Default, specifying the Event of Default or Default and a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.


  

	 	4.19.2 	The Company will deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 10 Business days after an Officer of the Company becomes aware or should reasonably become aware
of the occurrence of an Event of Default or Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of the Event of Default or Default, and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto. 

  

	 	4.19.3 	The Company will provide prior written notice to the Trustee when any Notes are listed on any Brazilian, U.S. or foreign securities exchange (in addition to the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange) and of any delisting. 

  

	 	4.20	Ranking 

 The Company will ensure that its
obligations under the Indenture and the Notes will at all times constitute direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Company, ranking at all times at least pari passu in priority of payment, in right of security
and in all other respects among themselves and with all other Debt of such Person, except to the extent any such other Debt ranks above such obligations by reason of Liens permitted under Section 4.10.

	 	4.21	Paying Agent and Transfer Agent 

  

	 	4.21.1 	The Company agrees, for the benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Notes, that, until all of the Notes are no longer outstanding or until moneys for the payment of all of

	 	4.21.3 	The Principal Paying Agent, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent each accepts their respective obligations set forth herein and in the Notes upon the terms and conditions hereof and
thereof, including the following, to all of which the Company agrees and to all of which the rights of the holders from time to time of the Notes shall be subject: 

  

	 	(i)	The Paying Agents and Transfer Agent each shall each be entitled to the compensation to be agreed upon with the Company for all services rendered by it, and the Company agrees
promptly to pay such compensation and to reimburse each of the Paying Agents and Transfer Agent for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by it in connection with the services rendered by it
hereunder. The Company also agrees to indemnify each of the Paying Agents and Transfer Agent for, and to hold each of them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurring out of or in connection with their acting as Paying Agents or
Transfer Agent of the Company hereunder, except to the extent such loss, liability or expense results from such Paying Agents’ or Transfer Agent’s own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The obligations of the Company under
this subsection (i) shall survive the payment of the Notes and the resignation or removal of the Paying Agents and Transfer Agent as the case may be; 

  


	 	(ii)	In acting under this Indenture and in connection with the Notes, the Paying Agents and Transfer Agent are each acting solely as agent of the Company and do not assume any obligation
towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the Holders except that all funds held by a Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of and interest on (and Additional Amounts, if any, with respect to) the Notes, shall be held in
trust by it and applied as set forth herein and in the Notes, but need not be segregated from other funds held by it, except as required by law;

	 	(v)	Each Paying Agent and Transfer Agent may, in its individual capacity or any capacity, become the owner of, or acquire any interest in, any Notes or other obligations of the Company
with the same rights that it would have if it were not the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Company and may act on, or as depositary, trustee or agent for, any committee
or body of holders of Notes or other obligations of the Company as freely as if it were not the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent; 

  

	 	(vi)	Neither the Paying Agents nor the Transfer Agent shall be under any liability for interest on any moneys received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of this Indenture or the
Notes; 

  

	 	(vii)	The recitals contained herein and in the Notes shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Paying Agents and Transfer Agent assume no responsibility for the correctness
of the same. Neither the Paying Agent nor the Transfer Agent makes any representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or the Notes. Neither the Paying Agents nor the Transfer Agent shall be accountable for the use or application
by the Company of any of the Notes or the proceeds thereof; 

  

	 	(viii)	The Paying Agents and Transfer Agent shall be obligated to perform such duties and only such duties as are herein and in the Notes specifically set forth, and no implied duties or
obligations shall be read into this Indenture or the Notes against the Paying Agents or Transfer Agent. Neither the Paying Agents nor the Transfer Agent shall be under any obligation to take any action hereunder which may tend to involve it in any
expense or liability, the payment of which within a reasonable time is not, in its reasonable opinion, assured to it; 

  

	 	(ix)	Unless otherwise specifically provided herein or in the Notes, any order, certificate, notice, request, direction or other communication from the Company made or given under any
provision of this Indenture shall be sufficient if signed by an authorized officer or any duly authorized attorney-in-fact; 

  

 40 









	 	(x)	The Company undertakes to indemnify each of the Paying Agents and their affiliates against all losses, liabilities, including any and all tax liabilities, which, for the avoidance
of doubt, shall include both Brazilian and Japanese taxes and associated penalties, costs, claims, actions, damages, expenses or demands which any of them may incur or which may be made against any of them as a result of or in connection with the
appointment of or the exercise of the powers and duties by any Paying Agent or its affiliates under this Indenture, except as may result from its own default, gross negligence or bad faith or that of its directors, officers or employees or any of
them, or breach by it of the terms of this Indenture; and 

  

	 	(xi)	The Company acknowledges that the Principal Paying Agent makes no representations as to the interpretation or characterization of the transactions herein undertaken for tax or any
other purpose, in any jurisdiction. The Company represents that it has fully satisfied itself as to any tax impact of this Indenture before agreeing to the terms herein, and is responsible for any and all federal, state, local, income, franchise,

	 	4.21.4 	 Any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of its resignation mailed to the Company specifying the date on which its
resignation shall become effective; provided that such date shall be at least 60 days after the date on which such notice is given unless the Company agrees to accept less notice. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly
appoint a successor Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, qualified as aforesaid, by written instrument in duplicate signed on behalf of the Company, one copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and one copy to the
successor Paying Agent or Transfer Agent. Such resignation shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) the effective date of such resignation or (ii) the acceptance of appointment by the successor Paying Agent or Transfer Agent as
provided in clause 4.21.5. The Company may, at any time and for any reason, and shall, upon any event set forth in the next succeeding sentence, remove a Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and appoint a successor Paying Agent or Transfer Agent,
qualified as aforesaid, by written instrument in duplicate signed on behalf of the Company, one copy 



  

 41

as if originally named as Paying Agent or Transfer Agent hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its compensation and out-of-pocket expenses then unpaid, shall pay over to such successor agent all moneys or other property at the time held
by it hereunder, if any. 

  

	 	4.21.6 	Any corporation or bank into which the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent may be merged or converted, or with which the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent may be consolidated, or any
corporation or bank resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent shall be a party, or any corporation or bank succeeding to the agency business of the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent shall be the
successor to the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent hereunder (provided that such corporation or bank shall be qualified as aforesaid) without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

	5	Consolidation or Merger 

 The Company will not:

  

	 	(i)	consolidate with or merge into or 

 convey, transfer, or

cent. in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company (and to the Trustee if the notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of and
accrued interest on the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal and interest will become immediately due and payable. If a bankruptcy default occurs with respect to the Company, the principal of
and accrued interest on the Notes then outstanding will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. In this case, the Company will comply with any and all then applicable
regulations of the Central Bank of Brazil for remittance of funds outside of Brazil. 

  

	 	6.2.2	 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a

is continuing, the Trustee may pursue, in its own name or as trustee of an express trust, any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any
provision of the Notes or the Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. 
  

	 	6.4	Waiver of Past Defaults 

 Except as otherwise
provided in Section 6.2, 6.7 or 9.2, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Trustee, waive an existing Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, the Default will cease to exist, and
any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured, but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

 46 









	 	6.5	Control by Majority 

 The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may 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. However, the Trustee may refuse
to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders not joining in the giving of such
direction, and the Trustee may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders. 
  

	 	6.6	Limitation on Suits 

 A Holder may not institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or the Notes, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Indenture or the Notes, unless:

	 	6.6.2	 Holders of at least 25 per cent. in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes have made written request to the Trustee to institute such proceedings in respect of
the Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; 

  

	 	6.6.3	 Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request;


  

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

  

	 	6.6.5	 during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with
such written request. 

  

	 	6.7	Rights of Holders to Receive Payment 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the right of a Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of or interest on its Note on or after the Stated Maturities thereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or
after such respective dates, may not be impaired or affected without the consent of that Holder. 
  

	 	6.8	Collection Suit by Trustee 

 If an Event of Default
in payment of principal or interest specified in clause 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining
unpaid, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate specified in the Notes, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. 
  

 47 









	 	6.9	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim 

 The Trustee may
file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due to the Trustee hereunder) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Company or its creditors or property, and is entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money, securities or
other property payable or deliverable upon conversion or exchange of the Notes or upon any such claims. Any custodian, receiver, síndico, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. Nothing in the Indenture will be deemed to empower the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  

	 	6.10	Priorities 

 If the Trustee collects any money
pursuant to this Section 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
  

	 	6.10.1 	First: to the Trustee for all amounts due to it hereunder; 

  

	 	6.10.2 	Second: to Holders for amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Notes, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts
due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest; and 

  

	 	6.10.3 	Third: to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 

 The Trustee, upon written notice to the Company, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
  

	 	6.11	Restoration of Rights and Remedies 

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

 48 









	 	6.12	Undertaking for Costs 

 In any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under the Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit (other than the Trustee) to file an undertaking to pay
the costs of the suit, and the court may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by
the party litigant. This Section 6.12 does not apply to a suit by a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Note on the respective due dates pursuant to clause 4.1.1, or a suit by Holders of more than 10 per cent. in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes except for any proceeding brought before a Brazilian court, which case the Holder may be required to post a bond to cover legal fees and court expenses. 
  

	 	6.13	Rights and Remedies Cumulative 

 No right or remedy
conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under this Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy.

  

	 	6.14	Delay or Omission Not Waiver 

 No delay or omission
of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will 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 Section 6 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. 
  

	 	6.15	Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury 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 or any usury law or other law that
would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance
of the Indenture. The Company hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

	7	The Trustee 

  

	 	7.1	General 

  

	 	7.1.1	The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee are as set forth herein. Whether or not expressly so provided, every provision of the Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7. 

  

	 	7.1.2	Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee needs perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the Indenture and no others, and no implied
covenants or obligations will be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise those rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, and use the same degree of
care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

  

	 	7.1.3	No provision of the Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. 

  

	 	7.2	Certain Rights of Trustee 

  

	 	7.2.1	In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may rely, and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need
not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but, in the case of any document which is specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof, the Trustee shall examine the document to determine whether
it conforms to the requirements of the Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Trustee, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts
or matters as it sees fit. 

  

	 	7.2.2	Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel conforming to Section 10.3 and the Trustee will not be
liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion. 

  

	 	7.2.3	The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 

  

	 	7.2.4	The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders
have offered to the Trustee security, reasonably satisfactory to it, or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

  

 50 









	 	7.2.5	The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it takes or
omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders in accordance with Section 6.5 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 the Indenture. 

  

	 	7.2.6	The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

  

	 	7.2.7	No provision of the Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in
the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

  

	 	7.3	Individual Rights of Trustee 

 The Trustee, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However,
the Trustee is subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(b) and 311. For purposes of Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b)(4) and (6): 
  

	 	7.3.1	“cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in
currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; and 

  

	 	7.3.2	“self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred for the purpose of financing the
purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds
arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship arising from the making, drawing,
negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation. 

  

 51 









	 	7.4	Trustee’s Disclaimer 

 The Trustee
(i) makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of the Indenture or the Notes; (ii) is not accountable for the Company’s use or application of the proceeds from the Notes; and (iii) is not responsible for any statement
in the Notes other than its certificate of authentication. 
  

	 	7.5	Notice of Default 

 The Trustee is not to be charged
with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or knowledge of any cure of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes unless either (i) an attorney or agent of the Trustee with direct responsibility for this Indenture, had
actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (ii) written notice of such Default or Event of Default has been given to the Trustee by the Company or any Holder. If any Default occurs and is continuing and is known to the Trustee, the
Trustee will send notice of the Default to each Holder within 90 days after it occurs, unless the Default has been cured; PROVIDED that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may
withhold the notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. 
  

	 	7.6	Compensation and Indemnity 

  

	 	7.6.1	The Company will pay the Trustee compensation as agreed upon in writing between the Company of the Trustee for the Trustee’s services. The compensation of the Trustee is not
limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, including the
compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

  

	 	7.6.2	The Company will indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any loss or liability or expense incurred by it without gross negligence, or bad faith or willful
misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Indenture and its duties under the Indenture and the Notes, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability and
of complying with any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under the Indenture and the Notes. 

  

	 	7.6.3	To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its
capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, and interest on particular Notes. 

  

	 	7.6.4	If the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default as specified herein, the expenses (including charges and expenses of its counsel) and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect. 

  

 52 









	 	7.6.5	The Company undertakes to indemnify each of the Paying Agents and their affiliates against all losses, liabilities, including any and all tax liabilities, which, for the avoidance
of doubt, shall include both Brazilian and Japanese taxes and associated penalties, costs, claims, actions, damages, expenses or demands which any of them may incur or which may be made against any of them as a result of or in connection with the
appointment of or the exercise of the powers and duties by any Paying Agent or its affiliates under this Indenture except as may result from its own default, gross negligence or bad faith or that of its directors, officers or employees or any of
them, or breach by it of the terms of this Indenture. 

  

	 	7.6.6	The Company acknowledges that the Principal Paying Agent makes no representations as to the interpretation or characterization of the transactions herein undertaken for tax or any
other purpose, in any jurisdiction. 

 The Company agrees to pay any and all stamp and other documentary taxes or duties which
may be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, performance and enforcement of this Indenture by the Paying Agent. 
  

	 	7.7	Replacement of Trustee 

  

	 	7.7.1	  

  

	 	(i)	The Trustee may resign at any time by written notice to the Company. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by written notice to the Trustee. 

  

	 	(iii)	If the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.9, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Trustee. 

  

	 	(iv)	The Company may remove the Trustee if: (i) the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.9; (ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (iii) a
receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (iv) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

 A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7. 
  

	 	7.7.2	 If the Trustee has been removed by the Holders, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may appoint a successor Trustee with the consent of the
Company. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the successor Trustee does not 



  

 53 









	 	 
deliver its written acceptance within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 


  

	 	7.7.3	Upon delivery by the successor Trustee of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company, (i) the retiring Trustee will transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.6, (ii) the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and (iii) the successor Trustee will have all the
rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under the Indenture. Upon request of any successor Trustee, the Company will execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee all such rights, powers and
trusts. The Company will give notice of any resignation and any removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders, and include in the notice the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office. 

  

	 	7.7.4	Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.6 will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.


  

	 	7.8	Successor Trustee by Merger 

 If the Trustee
consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or national banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or national banking
association without any further act will be the successor Trustee with the same effect as if the successor Trustee had been named as the Trustee in the Indenture. 
  

	 	7.9	Eligibility 

 The Indenture must always have a
Trustee that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least US$25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and its Corporate Trust Office in The
City of New York, New York. 
  

	 	7.10	Money Held in Trust 

 The Trustee will not be liable
for interest on any money received by it except as it may agree with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee, the Principal Paying Agent or any Paying Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and
except for money held in trust under Section 8. 
  

 54

	 	8.1.1	Subject to clause 8.1.2, the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture will terminate if:

Section 4.1 or (C) Notes for whose payment money or U.S. Government Obligations have been held in trust and then repaid to the Company pursuant to Section 8.5) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company has

	 	(ii)	  

  

	 	(a)	the Company irrevocably deposits in trust with the Trustee, as trust funds solely for the benefit of the Holders, money or U.S. Government Obligations in Dollars or a combination
thereof sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certificate delivered to the Trustee, without consideration of any reinvestment, to pay principal of and interest on the
Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and to pay all other sums payable by it hereunder; 

  

	 	(b)	no Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit; 

  

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

  

	 	(d)	the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the

 55 









	 	8.2	Legal Defeasance 

 After the 123rd day following the
deposit referred to in clause 8.2.1 (i) below, the Company will be deemed to have paid and will be discharged from its obligations in respect of the Notes and the Indenture, other than its obligations in Section 2 and Sections 3.1, 4.1,

 123-day period following the deposit.

of the Indenture, to the same effect as the ruling described in (x); 

  

	 	(b)	an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the creation of the defeasance trust does not violate the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (ii) the Holders have a

 56 









	 	(c)	an Opinion of Counsel from Brazil and any other jurisdiction in which the Company is conducting business in a manner which causes the Holders of the Notes to be liable for taxes on
payments under the Notes for which they would not have been so liable but for such conduct of business in such other jurisdiction, to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss in the relevant jurisdiction as a result of
such deposit and the defeasance and will be subject to taxes in the relevant jurisdiction (including withholding taxes) (as applicable) on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would otherwise have been the case if such
deposit and defeasance had not occurred. 

  

	 	(v)	If the Notes are listed on a U.S. national securities exchange, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the deposit and defeasance will not
cause the Notes to be delisted. 

  

	 	(vi)	The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to

payment of principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with the Notes and the Indenture. Such money and U.S. Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  

 57 









	 	8.5	Repayment to Company 

 Subject to Section 7.6,
8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, the Trustee and the Paying Agents will promptly pay to the Company upon request any excess money held by the Trustee and the Paying Agents at any time and thereupon be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The
Trustee or such Paying Agent will pay to the Company upon request any money held for payment with respect to the Notes that remains unclaimed for two years; PROVIDED that before making such payment the Trustee or such Paying Agent may at the expense
of the Company publish once in a newspaper of general circulation in New York City, or send to each Holder entitled to such money, notice that the money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified in the notice (at least 30 days after the date
of the publication or notice) any remaining unclaimed balance of money will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to such money must look solely to the Company for payment, unless applicable law designates another
Person, and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agents with respect to such money will cease. 
  

	 	8.6	Reinstatement 

 If and for so long as the Trustee is
unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations held in trust pursuant to Section 8.1, 8.2 or 8.3 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes will be reinstated as though no such deposit in trust had been made. If the Company makes any payment of principal of or interest on any Notes
because of the reinstatement of its obligations, they will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held in trust. 
  

	9	Amendments, Supplements and Waivers 

  

	 	9.1	Amendments Without Consent of Holders 

  

	 	9.1.1	The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes without notice to or the consent of any Noteholder:

Bank through the Central Bank electronic system (SISBACEN).

	 	9.2.1	Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.2 through 6.7 or clause 9.2.2, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture and the Notes with the written consent of the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive future compliance by the Company with any provision of the
Indenture or the Notes. 

  

	 	9.2.2	Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not: 

  

	 	(i)	reduce the rate of any Note or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

  

	 	(ii)	reduce the principal amount of or change the Stated Maturity of any installment of the principal of any Note; 

  

	 	(iii)	reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or change the time at which any Note may be redeemed; 

  

	 	(iv)	change the currency for payment of principal of, or interest on, any Note; 

  

	 	(v)	impair the right of any Holder of Notes to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Notes; 

  

	 	(vi)	waive certain payment defaults with respect to the Notes; 

  

	 	(vii)	reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to any amendment or waiver; 

  

	 	(viii)	make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions of this Indenture which require each Noteholders’ consent; 

  

	 	(ix)	modify or change any provision of the Indenture affecting the ranking of the Notes in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; 

  

 59 









	 	(x)	after the time an Offer to Purchase is required to have been made, reduce the purchase amount or purchase price, or extend the latest expiration date or purchase date thereunder.


 PROVIDED that the provisions of Sections 4.13 and 4.14 may, except as provided above, be amended or waived with the consent
of Holders holding not less than 66 2/3 per cent. in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. 
  

	 	9.2.3	It is not necessary for Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but is sufficient if their consent approves the substance
thereof. 

  

	 	9.2.4	An amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section will become effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Company will send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or their written waiver. The
Company will send supplemental indentures to Holders upon request. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.


  

	 	9.3	Effect of Consent 

  

	 	9.3.1	After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment,
supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of
the consenting Holder. Any changes to the terms and conditions of the Notes will need to be informed to and approved by the Central Bank through the Central Bank electronic system (SISBACEN). 

  

	 	9.3.2	If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate
notation of the changed terms on the Note and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The Trustee may also place an appropriate notation on any Note thereafter authenticated. However, the effectiveness
of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Notes in this fashion. 

  

	 	9.4	Trustee’s Rights and Obligations 

 The Trustee
is entitled to receive, and will be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Section 9 is authorized or permitted by the Indenture. If
the Trustee has received such an Opinion of Counsel, it shall sign the amendment, supplement or waiver so long as the same does not adversely affect the rights of the Trustee. The Trustee may, but is not obligated to, execute any amendment,
supplement or waiver that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture. 
  

 60 









	 	9.5	Payments for Consents 

 Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or
provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend such term or provision within the time period set forth in the
solicitation documents relating to the consent, waiver or amendment. 
  

	10	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	10.1	Noteholder Communications; Noteholder Actions 

  

	 	10.1.1	The rights of Holders to communicate with other Holders with respect to the Indenture or the Notes are as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and the Company and the Trustee shall
comply with the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 312(a) and 312(b). Neither the Company nor the Trustee will be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to the Trust
Indenture Act. 

  

	 	10.1.2	  

  

	 	(i)	Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent to amendment, supplement or waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a Holder (an
“act”) may be evidenced by an instrument signed by the Holder delivered to the Trustee. The fact and date of the execution of the instrument, or the authority of the person executing it, may be proved in any manner that the Trustee
deems sufficient. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders, which will be binding on all the Holders. 

  

	 	10.1.3	Any act by the Holder of any Note binds that Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the acting Holder, even if no notation thereof
appears on the Note. Subject to paragraph (c), a Holder may revoke an act as to its Notes, but only if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver or other consequence of the act becomes effective.


  

	 	10.1.4	 The Company may, but is not obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to act with respect to any amendment or waiver or in
any other regard, except that during the continuance of an Event of Default, only the Trustee may set a record date as to notices of 



  

 61 









	 	 
default, any declaration or acceleration or any other remedies or other consequences of the Event of Default. If a record date is fixed, those Persons that
were Holders at such record date and only those Persons will be entitled to act, or to revoke any previous act, whether or not those Persons continue to be Holders after the record date. No act will be valid or effective for more than 90 days after
the record date. 


  

	 	10.2	Notices 

  

	 	10.2.1	Any notice or communication to the Company will be deemed given if in writing (i) when delivered in person or (ii) an internationally recognized overnight courier service,

 The Company or the Trustee by notice to the other may designate additional or different addresses for
subsequent notices or communications. 
  

	 	10.2.2	Except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to published notices, any notice or communication to a Holder will be deemed given when mailed to the Holder at its address as it
appears on the Register by first class mail or, as to any Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, as agreed by the Company, the Trustee and DTC; PROVIDED, that, at any time when the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
and its rules so require, the Company will publish any such notice of communication sent to the Holders in a newspaper having a general circulation in Luxembourg. Copies of any notice or communication to a Holder, if given by the Company, will be
mailed to the Trustee at the same time. Defect in mailing a notice or communication to any particular Holder will not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. 

  

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

  

	 	10.3	Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent 

 Upon any request or application by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company will furnish to the Trustee: 
  

	 	10.3.1	an Officers’ Certificate stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in the Indenture relating to the proposed action have been
complied with; and 

  

	 	10.3.2	an Opinion of Counsel stating that all such conditions precedent have been complied with. 

  

	 	10.4	Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion 

 Each
certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture must include: 
  

	 	10.4.1	a statement that each person signing the certificate or opinion has read the covenant or condition and the related definitions; 

  

	 	10.4.2	a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statement or opinion contained in the certificate or opinion is based;


  

	 	10.4.3	a statement that, in the opinion of each such person, that person has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable the person to express an informed opinion as
to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and 

  

 63 









	 	10.4.4	a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of each such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with, PROVIDED that an Opinion of Counsel may rely on an
Officers’ Certificate or certificates of public officials with respect to matters of fact. 

  

	 	10.5	Payment Date other than a Business Day 

 If any
payment with respect to a payment of any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note (including any payment to be made on any date fixed for redemption or purchase of any Note) is due on a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment
need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest will accrue for the intervening period. 
  

	 	10.6	Governing Law 

 The Indenture and the Notes shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
  

	 	10.7	Submission to Jurisdiction; Agent for Service; Waiver of Immunities 

  

	 	10.7.1	The Company agrees that any suit, action or proceeding against it brought by any Noteholder or the Trustee arising out of or based upon this Indenture or the Notes may be instituted
in any state or Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, New York, and waive any objection which each of them may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding, and irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action or proceeding. 

  

	 	10.7.2	 By the execution and delivery of this Indenture or any amendment or supplement hereto, the Company (i) acknowledges that it hereby designates and appoints
National Corporate Research, Ltd., 225 West 34th Street, Suite 910, New York, New
York 10122, as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any suit, action or proceeding with respect to, arising out of, or relating to, the Notes or this Indenture, that may be instituted in any Federal or state court in the State of
New York, The City of New York, the Borough of Manhattan, or brought under Federal or state securities laws or brought by the Trustee (whether in its individual capacity or in its capacity as Trustee hereunder), and acknowledges that National
Corporate Research, Ltd. has accepted such designation, (ii) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) agrees that service of process upon National Corporate Research,
Ltd. shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company, in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Company further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and
instruments as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of National Corporate Research, Ltd. in full force and effect so 



  

 64 









	 	 
long as this Indenture shall be in full force and effect; provided that the Company may and shall (to the extent National Corporate Research, Ltd. ceases to
be able to be served on the basis contemplated herein), by written notice to the Trustee, designate such additional or alternative agents for service of process under this Section 10.7 that (i) maintains an office located in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York in the State of New York, (ii) are either (x) counsel for the Company or (y) a corporate service company which acts as agent for service of process for other Persons in the ordinary course of its

City of New York, State of New York. Upon the request of any Noteholder, the Trustee shall deliver such information to such Noteholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall, at all times, be at least one agent for service of process for the
Company appointed and acting in accordance with this Section 10.7. 


  

	 	10.7.3	To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the Company hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of their obligations under this Indenture and the Notes, to the extent
permitted by law. 

  

	 	10.8	Judgment Currency 

  

	 	10.8.1	Dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums due and payable by the Company under this Indenture and the Notes. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any
court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the Company will agree, to the fullest extent that it may legally and effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Trustee determines a Person could purchase Dollars with such other currency in New York, New York, on the business day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 

  

	 	10.8.2	The obligation of the Company in respect of any sum due to any Noteholder or the Trustee in Dollars shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, notwithstanding any judgment in
a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt of any sum adjudged to be so due in the judgment currency such Noteholder or Trustee may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase
Dollars in the amount originally due to such Person with the judgment currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Person, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify such Person against the resulting loss; and if the amount of Dollars so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to such Person, such Person will, by accepting a Note, be deemed to have agreed to repay such excess.


  

 65 









	 	10.9 	No Adverse Interpretation of other Agreements 

 This
Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture or loan or debt agreement of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, and no such indenture or loan or debt agreement may be used to interpret this Indenture.

 All agreements of the Company in this
Indenture and the Notes will bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in the Indenture will bind its successor.

number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
  

	 	10.12 	Separability

Indenture or in the Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
  

	 	10.13 	Table of Contents and Headings 

 The Table of
Contents, Cross-Reference Table and headings of Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of the Indenture and in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions of

 10.50 per cent. Senior Note Due 2016 
  

	1	Principal and Interest 

 The Company promises to pay
the principal of this Note on August 4, 2016. 
 The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each
Interest Payment Date, as set forth on the face of this Note, at the rate of 10.50 per cent. per annum. 
 Interest will be payable
semi-annually (to the holders of record of the Notes at the close of business on the July 20 and January 20 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date, commencing February 4, 2007. 
 Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on this Note (or, if there is no existing default in the
payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date and the next Interest Payment Date, from such Interest Payment Date) or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date. Interest will be computed in the basis of
a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The Company will pay interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful,
interest at a rate per annum that is 1 per cent. per annum in excess of the rate per annum borne by this Note. Interest not paid when due and any interest on principal, premium or interest not paid when due will be paid to the Persons that are
Holders on a special record date, which will be the 15th day preceding the date fixed by the Company for the payment of such interest, whether or not such day is a Business Day. At least 15 days before a special record date, the Company will send to
each Holder and to the Trustee a notice that sets forth the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. 
  

	2	Indentures 

 This is one of the Notes issued under
an Indenture dated as of August 4, 2006 (as amended from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Trustee, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd., acting through its London branch, as
Principal Paying Agent and J.P. Morgan Bank Luxembourg S.A., as Luxembourg Paying Agent and Transfer Agent. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in
the Indenture, as may be amended from time to time. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency
between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture will control. 
 The Notes are general unsecured
obligations of the Company. The Indenture limits the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes to US$300,000,000, but Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to the Indenture, and the originally issued Notes and all such Additional Notes vote
together for all purposes as a single class. 
  

 71

 This Note may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in the Indenture. There is no sinking fund or mandatory redemption applicable to this Note. 
 The Note is subject to redemption for tax reasons as described in Section 3.3. 
 Additional Amounts will be paid in respect of any payments of interest or principal so that the amount a holder receives after Brazilian withholding tax,
will equal the amount that the holder would have received if no withholding tax had been applicable, to the extent described in Section 3.1. 
 If the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, the Company may in certain
circumstances be discharged from the Indenture and the Notes or may be discharged from certain of its obligations under certain provisions of the Indenture.

Trustee may require a Holder to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, there are certain periods during which the Trustee will
not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note or certain portions of a Note. 
  

	5	Defaults and Remedies 

 If an Event of Default, as
defined in the Indenture, occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25 per cent. in principal amount of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. If a bankruptcy default with respect to the Company occurs
and is continuing, the Notes automatically become due and payable. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the
Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of remedies. 
  

	6	Amendment and Waiver 

 Subject to certain
exceptions, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended, or default may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee
may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency if such amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material respect.

 Whereas, the Company and the Trustee entered

cause any newly acquired or created Significant Subsidiaries to provide a guarantee pursuant to clause 2 of this Supplemental Indenture in certain circumstances. 
 Agreement: 
 Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained and intending to be legally bound,
the parties to this Supplemental Indenture hereby agree as follows: 
  

	1	Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein are used as defined in the Indenture. 

  

	2	The Undersigned, by its execution of this Supplemental Indenture, agrees to be a guarantor under the Indenture and to be bound by the terms of this Supplemental Indenture pursuant
to the following provisions (the “Guarantor”): 

  

	 	2.1	The Guarantee 

 Subject to the provisions of this Section,
the Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally with all current and subsequent Guarantors, if any, on an unsecured basis, the full and punctual payment (whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, purchase
pursuant to an Offer to Purchase or acceleration, or otherwise) of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Company
under the Indenture. Upon failure by the Company to pay punctually any such amount, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Indenture. 
  

	 	2.2	Guarantee Unconditional 

 The obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: 
  

	 	2.2.1	any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Company under this Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise;


  

 79 









	 	2.2.2	any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Indenture or any Note; 

  

	 	2.2.3	any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Company, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Company or its
assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Company contained in this Indenture or any Note; 

  

	 	2.2.4	the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Company, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with the
Indenture or any unrelated transactions; PROVIDED that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 

  

	 	2.2.5	any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company for any reason of this Indenture or any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to
prohibit the payment by the Company of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Indenture; or 

  

	 	2.2.6	any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Company, the Trustee or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of
this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 

  

	 	2.3	Discharge; Reinstatement 

 The Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under this Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, the
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 
  

	 	2.4	Waiver by the Guarantor 

 The Guarantor irrevocably waives
acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Company or any other Person. 
  

	 	2.5	Subrogation and Contribution 

 Upon making any payment with
respect to any obligation of the Company under this clause 2, the Guarantor making such payment will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Company with respect to such obligation; PROVIDED that the Guarantor may not enforce either any
right of subrogation, or any right to receive payment in the nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, if any, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Company hereunder or under the Notes remains
unpaid. 
  

 80 









	 	2.6	Stay of Acceleration 

 If acceleration of the time for
payment of any amount payable by the Company under this Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Indenture are
nonetheless payable by the Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders. 
  

	 	2.7	Limitation on Amount of Guarantee 

 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this clause 2, the Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee of the Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under
applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the laws of Brazil, the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the
obligations of the Guarantor under its guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the laws of Brazil, the United States
Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. 
 The Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantor further hereby irrevocably agree
that the obligations of the Guarantor under its guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that would not result in a breach or violation by the Guarantor of any agreement to which the Guarantor is a party and entered into prior to the date that
the Guarantor constituted a Significant Subsidiary. 
  

	 	2.8	Execution and Delivery of Guarantee 

 The execution by the
Guarantor of this supplemental indenture evidences the guarantee of the Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Note. The delivery of any Note by the
Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the guarantee set forth in this clause 2 on behalf of the Guarantor. 
  

	 	2.9	Release of Guarantee 

 The guarantee of a Guarantor will
terminate upon: 
  

	 	2.9.1	a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in
each case other than to the Company or a Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by this Indenture; 

  

	 	2.9.2	if the guarantee was required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, the cessation of the circumstances requiring the guarantee; or 

  

	 	2.9.3	defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Section 8 of the Indenture. 

  


 81 








 Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to
the foregoing effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company in writing in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under its guarantee. 
  

	3	This Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

  

	4	This Supplemental Indenture may be signed in various counterparts which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 

  

	5	This Supplemental Indenture is an amendment supplemental to the Indenture, and the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture will henceforth be read together.
