agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization,
agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date.

Agent at its Indenture Agent Corporate Trust Office, 388 Greenwich Street, 14th Floor, New York, New York, 10013, Attention: Barrick Gold Corporation; or 
 (3) an Issuer or the Guarantor by the Trustee, the Indenture Agent or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, or sent by overnight courier to such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, addressed to it at Brookfield Place, TD Canada Trust Tower, Suite 3700, 161 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2S1,

earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder
actually receives such notice. 
 In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason
of any other cause, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Holders of Registered Securities when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this

Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be directed by the applicable Issuer shall be deemed to be sufficient giving of such notice for every purpose hereunder.

English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

shall be filed with the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

for the purposes of obtaining judgment in, or enforcing the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes necessary to convert into a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due or contingently due under the Securities of any
series or this Indenture in any other currency (the “Required Currency”), then the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or the order of enforcement is
made, as the case may be (unless a court shall otherwise determine). 
 (ii) If there is a change in the rate of
exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or an order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (or such other date as a court shall determine), and the date of receipt of the amount due, the
applicable Issuer or, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay such additional (or, as the case may be, such lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency when
converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount in the Required Currency originally due.

respect thereof, shall remain unpaid or outstanding, such Issuer or, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall indemnify and hold the Holders, the Trustee and the Indenture Agent harmless against any deficiency
arising or resulting from any variation in rates of exchange between (1) the date as of which the equivalent of the amount in the Required Currency (other than under this Subsection (b)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and
(2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For the purpose of this Subsection (b) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of an Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be
the date fixed by the liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, may be ascertained for such
winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto. 
 (c) The obligations contained in Subsections
(a)(ii) and (b) of this Section shall constitute separate and independent obligations of the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, from its other obligations under the Securities, the Guarantees and this Indenture, shall
give rise to separate and independent causes of action against such Issuer and the Guarantor, shall apply irrespective of any waiver or extension granted by any Holder, Trustee or Indenture Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force
and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of any proof of claim in the winding-up of such Issuer or the Guarantor for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other than under Subsection (b) above) or under any
such judgment or order. Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute 
  

  
 22 









 
a loss suffered by the Holders, the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, as the case may be, and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor or
the applicable liquidator. In the case of Subsection (b) above, the amount of such deficiency shall not be deemed to be reduced by any variation in rates of exchange occurring between the said final date and the date of any liquidating
distribution. 
 (d) The term “rate(s) of exchange” shall mean (i) in the case that either the Required Currency
or the Judgment Currency is the Canadian dollar, the Bank of Canada noon rate for purchases on the relevant date of the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency, as reported by Telerate on screen 3194 (or such other means of reporting the Bank
of Canada noon rate as may be agreed upon by each of the parties to this Indenture) or (ii) in all other cases, the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required
Currency with the Judgment Currency on the relevant date and in each case includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable.

 Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, for purposes of the construction of the terms of this Indenture or of the Securities, in the event that any amount is stated herein in the Currency of one
nation (the “First Currency”), as of any date such amount shall also be deemed to represent the amount in the Currency of any other relevant nation (the “Other Currency”) which is required to purchase such amount in the First
Currency (i) at the Bank of Canada noon rate as reported by Reuters Telerate successor page 3194 as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (or such other means of reporting the Bank of Canada noon rate as may be agreed upon by each of the parties to this
Indenture) on the date of determination or (ii) if the Bank of Canada noon rate is not available, in accordance with normal banking procedures in The City of New York on the date of determination. 

SECTION 116. No Recourse Against Others. 
 A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of an Issuer or the Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of such Issuer or the Guarantor under the Securities, the Guarantees
or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. Such waiver and release shall be part of the
consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
 SECTION 117. Multiple Originals. 

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent
the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture.

SECTION 203. Securities Issuable in Global Form. 
 If Securities of or within a series are issuable in global form, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, then, notwithstanding clause (10) of Section 301, any such Security shall
represent such of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate
amount of Outstanding Securities of such series represented thereby may from time to time be increased or decreased to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount,
of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Indenture Agent in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Issuer Order to be delivered to the Indenture Agent
pursuant to Section 303. Subject to the provisions of Section 303, the Indenture Agent shall deliver and redeliver any Security in permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein

 The provisions of
the last sentence of Section 303 shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never issued and sold by the applicable Issuer and such Issuer delivers to the Indenture Agent, as applicable, the
Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby,
together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 303. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 307, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on any Security in permanent global form shall be made to the Person or Persons specified therein.

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 309 and except as provided in the preceding paragraph, the applicable Issuer,
the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Indenture Agent and any agent of the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall treat as the Holder of such principal amount of Outstanding Securities represented by a permanent global
Security the Holder of such permanent global Security. 
 SECTION 204. Guarantee by Guarantor; Form of Guarantee.

 The Guarantor by its execution of this Indenture hereby agrees with each Holder of a Guaranteed Security of each series
authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Agent and with the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder, to be unconditionally and irrevocably bound by the terms and provisions of the Guarantee set forth below and authorizes the Indenture Agent to
confirm such Guarantees to the Holder of each such Guaranteed Security by its delivery of each 

  
 26 









 
such Guaranteed Security, with such Guarantees endorsed thereon, authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Agent. 
 Guarantees to be endorsed on the Guaranteed Securities shall, subject to Section 201, be in substantially the form set forth below or in any other form established by or pursuant to authority granted
by one or more Board Resolutions and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 301: 
 GUARANTEE 
 OF 

BARRICK GOLD CORPORATION 
 For value received, Barrick Gold Corporation, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, having its principal executive offices at Brookfield Place, TD Canada Trust Tower,
Suite 3700, 161 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2S1 (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed and to the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such
Security, the due and punctual payment of any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such Security, and the due and punctual payment of the sinking fund or analogous payments referred to therein, if any, when and as the same shall
become due and payable, whether on the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein. In case of the failure of Barrick North America
Finance LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Subsidiary Issuer”, which term includes any successor Person under such Indenture), punctually to make any such payment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest, or any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such Security or any such sinking fund or analogous payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and
as the same shall become due and payable, whether on the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Subsidiary Issuer. 

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be
absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of such Security or such Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of such Security or such Indenture, or any waiver,
modification or indulgence granted to the Subsidiary Issuer with respect thereto, by the Holder of such Security or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor;
provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of such Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, or
increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof, or increase the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity
thereof pursuant to Article Five of such Indenture. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Subsidiary Issuer, any right to require a proceeding
first 

  
 27 









 
against the Subsidiary Issuer, protest or notice with respect to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or with respect to any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to
such Security or any sinking fund or analogous payment required under such Security and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that its obligations under this Guarantee will not be discharged except by payment in full of the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest and any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such Security. 
 The Guarantor shall be
subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Security and the Trustee against the Subsidiary Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that
the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Securities of the same series issued under such Indenture
and any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such Securities shall have been paid in full. 
 No reference
herein to such Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of such Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantees of the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on, and any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to, and any sinking fund or analogous payments with respect to, the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed. 

This Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication of such Security shall have been
manually executed by or on behalf of the Indenture Agent under such Indenture. 
 All terms used in this Guarantee which are
defined in such Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture. 
 This Guarantee shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

 SECTION 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating 

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the applicable Issuer by, in the case of the Company, its Chairman, its Chief Executive
Officer, its President or a Vice President together with any one of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer, and, in the case of the Subsidiary Issuer, any two Directors of the Subsidiary Issuer. The signature
of any of these officers on the Securities may be the manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities. 

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the applicable Issuer may deliver Exchange
Securities to be issued in exchange for any series of Restricted Global Securities and Regulation S Global Securities, executed by such Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, endorsed by the Guarantor to the Indenture Agent for
authentication, together with an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Indenture Agent in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the applicable Issuer may deliver Securities of any
series, executed by such Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, endorsed by the Guarantor to the Indenture Agent for authentication, together with an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Indenture
Agent in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time and if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series shall so
permit, such Issuer Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the Trustee or the Indenture Agent for the issuance of such Securities and determining terms of particular Securities of such series such as interest rate, stated maturity, date of
issuance and date from which interest shall accrue. 
 In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee and the Indenture Agent shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d)) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion or
Opinions of Counsel of the applicable Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor stating: 

(a) that the form or forms of such Securities and the Guarantees, if any, have been established in conformity with the
provisions of this Indenture; 
 (b) that the terms of such Securities and the Guarantees, if any, have been
established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (c) that such Securities and, in the case of
Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantees, when completed by appropriate insertions and executed and delivered by the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) to the Indenture


  
 33 









 
Agent for authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Agent in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the applicable Issuer and the
Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed
Securities), respectively, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights,
to general equitable principles and to such other qualifications as such counsel shall conclude do not materially affect the rights of Holders of such Securities; 

(d) that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the applicable Issuer of such Securities
and of the supplemental indentures, if any, and by the Guarantor of such Guarantees (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) and of the supplemental indentures, if any, have been complied with and that authentication and delivery of such Securities
and the execution and delivery of the supplemental indenture, if any, by the Trustee and the Indenture Agent will not violate the terms of the Indenture; 
 (e) that each of the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) has the corporate power to issue such Securities and any Guarantees (in the case of Guaranteed Securities),
respectively, and has duly taken all necessary corporate action with respect to such issuance; and 
 (f) that
the issuance of such Securities and any Guarantees (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) will not contravene the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), or result in any
violation of any of the terms or provisions of any law or regulation. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and
of the preceding two paragraphs, if not all the Securities of any series are to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 or the Issuer Order and
Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs prior to or at the time of issuance of each Security, but such documents shall be delivered prior to or at the time of issuance of the first Security of such series.

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

Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security or Guarantee endorsed thereon shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly executed by the Indenture Agent by manual signature of an authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly 

  
 34 









 
authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled, together with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, if any, to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security
shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the applicable Issuer, and such Issuer shall deliver such Security to the Indenture Agent for cancellation as provided in Section 310 together with a written
statement (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by such Issuer, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed
never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

SECTION 304. Reserved 
 SECTION 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange 
 Each
Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Indenture Agent Corporate Trust Office a register for each series of Securities issued by such Issuer (the registers maintained in the Indenture Agent Corporate Trust Office and in any other office or agency of
such Issuer in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, such Issuer shall provide for the registration of
Registered Securities and of transfers of Registered Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. Upon three Business Days’ prior written
request, the Security Register shall be open during normal business hours to inspection by the Trustee and the Indenture Agent. The Indenture Agent is hereby initially appointed as security registrar (the “Security Registrar”) for the
purpose of registering Registered Securities and transfers of Registered Securities as herein provided. The applicable Issuer shall have the right to remove and replace from time to time the Security Registrar for any series of Securities;
provided, however, that no such removal or replacement shall be effective until a successor Security Registrar with respect to such series of Registered Securities shall have been appointed by the applicable Issuer and shall have
accepted such appointment by the applicable Issuer. There shall be only one Security Register for each series of Securities. 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for
that series, the applicable Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee, one or more replacement Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and
of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed thereon a Guarantee executed by the Guarantor. 

At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other replacement Registered Securities of the same
series, of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness, upon surrender of the Registered Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Registered Securities
are so surrendered for exchange, the applicable Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities, and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed thereon a Guarantee executed by the
Guarantor, which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

  
 35 









 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph and the two following paragraphs. If any beneficial owner of an interest in a permanent global Security is entitled to exchange such interest
for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301 and provided that any applicable notice provided in the permanent global Security
shall have been given, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interest may be so exchanged, the applicable Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Agent definitive Securities in aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of such beneficial owner’s interest in such permanent global Security, executed by such Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having a Guarantee executed by the Guarantor endorsed
thereon. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary for such permanent global Security to the Indenture Agent, as such Issuer’s agent for such
purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge, and the Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global Security, an equal aggregate
principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and evidencing the same indebtedness as the portion of such permanent global Security to be exchanged which shall be in the form of Registered
Securities. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of
business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, then (in the
case of clause (i)) interest or (in the case of clause (ii)) Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered
Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person who was the Holder of such permanent global Security at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date or
Special Record Date, as the case may be. 
 If at any time the Depositary for Securities of a series notifies the applicable
Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for global Securities for such series shall no longer be a clearing agency registered as such under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the applicable Issuer shall appoint a successor depositary with respect to the Securities for such series. If a successor to the Depositary for Securities is not appointed by the applicable Issuer within
90 days after the applicable Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the applicable Issuer’s election pursuant to Section 301 shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities for
such series and the applicable Issuer will execute, and the Indenture Agent, upon receipt of an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver replacement Securities of such
series in definitive registered form, in authorized denominations and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, with duly executed Guarantees duly endorsed thereon, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global
Security or Securities representing such series and evidencing the same indebtedness in exchange for such global Security or Securities. The provisions of the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph shall be applicable to any exchange
pursuant to this paragraph. 

  
 36 









 The applicable Issuer may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the
Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more global Securities shall no longer be represented by such global Security or Securities. In such event, the applicable Issuer will execute, and the Indenture Agent, upon receipt of an Issuer
Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver replacement Securities of such series in definitive registered form, in authorized denominations and, in the case of Guaranteed
Securities, with duly executed Guarantees duly endorsed thereon, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global Security or Securities representing such series and evidencing the same indebtedness in exchange for
such global Security or Securities. The provisions of the last sentence of the second preceding paragraph shall be applicable to any exchange pursuant to this paragraph. 
 Upon the exchange of a global Security for Securities in definitive registered form, such global Security shall be cancelled by the Indenture Agent. Securities issued in exchange for a global Security
pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Indenture
Agent in writing. The Indenture Agent shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. 
 All Securities and Guarantees issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor, respectively, evidencing the
same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities and the Guarantees surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the applicable Issuer or the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to such Issuer and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the applicable Issuer or Security
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 906, 1107 or
1305 not involving any transfer. 
 Neither the applicable Issuer nor the Security Registrar shall be required (i) to
issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of Securities of that series under Section 1103 or 1203 and
ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so
repaid. 

  
 37 









 SECTION 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities 

If any mutilated but fully identifiable Security is surrendered to the Indenture Agent, the applicable Issuer shall execute and the
Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a replacement Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and evidencing the same indebtedness and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed
thereon a Guarantee executed by the Guarantor and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be
delivered to the applicable Issuer and the Indenture Agent (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction (including but not limited to mutilation causing the Security to not be fully identifiable), loss or theft of any Security and
(ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to such Issuer or the Indenture Agent that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, such Issuer shall execute and upon Issuer Order the Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a replacement Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount
and evidencing the same indebtedness and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed thereon a Guarantee executed by the Guarantor and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become
or is about to become due and payable, the applicable Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a replacement Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any replacement Security under this Section, the applicable Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every
replacement Security of any series and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantee endorsed thereon issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute a contractual obligation
of the applicable Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor, respectively, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits
of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The
provisions of this Section, as amended or supplemented pursuant to Section 301 of this Indenture with respect to particular securities or generally, are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 SECTION 307. Payment of
Principal and Interest; Interest Rights Preserved; Optional Interest Reset 
 (a) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated
by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest, if any, on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually 

  
 38 









 
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on
the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the applicable Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002; provided, however, that each installment of interest, if any, on any Registered
Security may at the applicable Issuer’s option be paid by (i) mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 309, to the address of such Person as it appears
on the Security Register or (ii) wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the Person entitled to such payment as specified in the Security Register. Principal paid in relation to any Security at Maturity shall be
paid to the Holder of such Security only upon presentation and surrender of such Security to any office or agency referred to in this Section 307(a). 
 Any interest on any Registered Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on
the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and, if applicable, interest on such defaulted interest (to the extent lawful) at the rate specified in the Securities of such series (such defaulted
interest and, if applicable, interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the applicable Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below: 

(1) The applicable Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the
Registered Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. Such Issuer
shall notify the Indenture Agent and the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Registered Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time such Issuer shall deposit with
the Indenture Agent an amount of money in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in
Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Indenture Agent for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Indenture Agent shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Indenture Agent of the notice of the proposed payment. The Indenture
Agent shall promptly notify such Issuer of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of such Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given in the
manner provided in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid
to the Persons in whose name the Registered Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business 

  
 39 









 
on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 
 (2) The applicable Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Registered Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by such Issuer to the Indenture Agent of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed
practicable by the Indenture Agent. 
 (b) The provisions of this Section 307(b) may be made applicable to any series of
Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 301). The interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if
applicable) on any Security of such series may be reset by the applicable Issuer on the date or dates specified on the face of such Security (each an “Optional Reset Date”). The applicable Issuer may exercise such option with respect to
such Security by providing a notice (the “Reset Notice”) containing the information specified below to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to an Optional Reset Date for such Security. Not later
than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Indenture Agent shall transmit such notice, in the manner provided for in Section 106, to the Holder of any such Security. The Reset Notice shall indicate whether the applicable Issuer has
elected to reset the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable), and if so (i) such new interest rate (or such new spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) and (ii) the
provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date or if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of such Security (each such period a “Subsequent Interest
Period”), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the applicable Issuer may, at its option,
revoke the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice and establish an interest rate (or a spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate,
if applicable) that is higher than the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice, for the Subsequent Interest Period by providing to the Indenture Agent and directing the Indenture Agent to
transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, notice of such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect
to which the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) is reset on an Optional Reset Date, and with respect to which the Holders of such Securities have not tendered such Securities for
repayment (or have validly revoked any such tender) pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph, will bear such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable). 

The Holder of any such Security will have the option to elect repayment by the applicable Issuer of the principal of such Security on
each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to obtain 

  
 40 









 
repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders except that the period for delivery or notification
to the Indenture Agent shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to the Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to
the Indenture Agent, revoke such tender or repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before such Optional Reset Date. 
 (c) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 305, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other
Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

SECTION 308. Optional Extension of Stated Maturity. 
 The provisions of this Section 308 may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to
such Section 301). The Stated Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the applicable Issuer for the period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each an “Extension Period”) up to but not
beyond the date (the “Final Maturity”) set forth on the face of such Security. Such Issuer may exercise such option with respect to any Security by providing a notice (the “Extension Notice”) to the Trustee and the Indenture
Agent at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the “Original Stated Maturity”). If such Issuer exercises such option, the Indenture Agent shall
transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, the Extension Notice to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity. The Extension Notice shall indicate (i) the election of such Issuer
to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate, if any, applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Indenture
Agent’s transmittal of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as
prior to the transmittal of such Extension Notice. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the
Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the applicable Issuer may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by providing to the Indenture Agent and
directing the Indenture Agent to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the Stated Maturity
is extended will bear such higher interest rate. 
 If the applicable Issuer extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder
will have the option to elect repayment of such Security by such Issuer on the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated
Maturity once such Issuer has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Indenture Agent shall
be at least 

  
 41 









 
25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by
written notice to the Indenture Agent revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity. 
 SECTION 309. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a
Registered Security for registration of transfer, the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), the Trustee, the Indenture Agent, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent and any agent of any of the foregoing may treat
the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 305 and 307) interest, if any, on such
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever (other than the payment of Additional Amounts, if any), whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of such Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Indenture Agent, the Security Registrar, the
Paying Agent or any agent of any of the foregoing shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 None of the applicable Issuer,
the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), the Trustee, the Indenture Agent, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), the Trustee, the Indenture
Agent, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent or any agent of any of the foregoing from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any depositary, as a Holder, with respect to such global Security or
impair, as between such depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such global Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such global Security.

 SECTION 310. Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any current or future sinking fund payment shall, if
surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Agent, be delivered to the Indenture Agent. All Securities so delivered to the Indenture Agent shall be promptly cancelled by it. The applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed
Securities) may at any time deliver to the Indenture Agent for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which such Issuer or the Guarantor may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the
Indenture Agent (or to any other Person for delivery to the Indenture Agent) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which such Issuer has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by
the Indenture Agent. If the applicable Issuer shall so acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are
surrendered to the Indenture Agent for cancellation. 

  
 42 









 
No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities
held by the Indenture Agent shall be disposed of by the Indenture Agent in accordance with its customary procedures and certification of their disposal shall be delivered to the applicable Issuer upon such Issuer’s written request unless by
Issuer Order such Issuer shall direct that cancelled Securities be returned to it. 
 SECTION 311. Computation of
Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any Securities, interest, if
any, on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which interest calculated under a
Security for any period in any calendar year (the “calculation period”) is equivalent, is the rate payable under a Security in respect of the calculation period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the actual number of days
in such calendar year and the denominator of which is the actual number of days in the calculation period. 
 SECTION 312.
Currency and Manner of Payments in Respect of Securities. 
 (a) With respect to Registered Securities of any series not
permitting the election provided for in paragraph (b) below or the Holders of which have not made the election provided for in paragraph (b) below, except as provided in paragraph (d) below, payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest, if any, on any Registered Security of such series will be made in the Currency in which such Registered Security, as the case may be, is denominated or stated to be payable. The provisions of this Section 312 may be
modified or superseded with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 301. 
 (b) It may be provided pursuant to
Section 301 with respect to Registered Securities of any series that Holders shall have the option, subject to paragraphs (d) and (e) below, to receive payments of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on such
Registered Securities in any of the Currencies which may be designated for such election by delivering to the Trustee a written election with signature guarantees and in the applicable form established pursuant to Section 301, not later than
the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the applicable payment date. If a Holder so elects to receive such payments in any such Currency, such election will remain in effect for such Holder or any transferee of such Holder
until changed by such Holder or such transferee by written notice to the Indenture Agent (but any such change must be made not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the next payment date to be effective for the
payment to be made on such payment date and no such change of election may be made with respect to payments to be made on any Registered Security of such series with respect to which an Event of Default has occurred or with respect to which the
applicable Issuer has deposited funds pursuant to Article Four or Fourteen or with respect to which a notice of redemption has been given by the applicable Issuer or a notice of option to elect repayment has been sent by such Holder or such
transferee). Any Holder of any such Registered Security who shall not have delivered any such election to the Indenture Agent not later than the close of business on the applicable Election Date will be paid the amount due on the applicable payment
date in the relevant Currency as provided in Section 312(a). The Indenture 

  
 43 









 
Agent shall notify the Exchange Rate Agent as soon as practicable after the Election Date of the aggregate principal amount of Registered Securities for which Holders have made such written
election. 
 (c) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, if the election referred to in paragraph
(b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 301, then, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, not later than the fourth Business Day after the Election Date for each payment date for Registered Securities of any
series, the Exchange Rate Agent will deliver to the applicable Issuer a written notice specifying, in the Currency in which Registered Securities of such series are payable, the respective aggregate amounts of principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, if any, on the Registered Securities to be paid on such payment date, specifying the amounts in such Currency so payable in respect of the Registered Securities as to which the Holders of Registered Securities of such series shall have
elected to be paid in another Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above. If the election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 301 and if at least one Holder has made such election, then,
unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, on the second Business Day preceding such payment date the applicable Issuer will deliver to the Indenture Agent for such series of Registered Securities an Exchange Rate Officer’s
Certificate in respect of the Dollar or Foreign Currency payments to be made on such payment date. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, the Dollar or Foreign Currency amount receivable by Holders of Registered Securities who have
elected payment in a Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above shall be determined by the applicable Issuer on the basis of the applicable Market Exchange Rate in effect on the third Business Day (the “Valuation Date”) immediately
preceding each payment date, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(d) If a Conversion Event occurs with respect to a Foreign Currency in which any of the Securities are denominated or payable other than
pursuant to an election provided for pursuant to paragraph (b) above, then with respect to each date for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the applicable Securities denominated or payable in such Foreign
Currency occurring after the last date on which such Foreign Currency was used (the “Conversion Date”), the Dollar shall be the Currency of payment for use on each such payment date. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301,
the Dollar amount to be paid by the applicable Issuer to the Indenture Agent and by the Indenture Agent or any other Paying Agent to the Holders of such Securities with respect to such payment date shall be, in the case of a Foreign Currency other
than a currency unit, the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency or, in the case of a currency unit, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, in each case as determined by the Exchange Rate Agent in the manner provided in paragraph (f) or
(g) below. 
 (e) Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, if the Holder of a Registered Security
denominated in any Currency shall have elected to be paid in another Currency as provided in paragraph (b) above, and a Conversion Event occurs with respect to such elected Currency, such Holder shall receive payment in the Currency in which
payment would have been made in the absence of such election; and if a Conversion Event occurs with respect to the Currency in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election, such Holder shall receive payment in Dollars as
provided in paragraph (d) above. 

  
 44 









 (f) The “Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency” shall be determined by the
Exchange Rate Agent and shall be obtained for each subsequent payment date by converting the specified Foreign Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate on the Conversion Date. 

(g) The “Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit” shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent and subject to the provisions
of paragraph (h) below shall be the sum of each amount obtained by converting the Specified Amount of each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate for such Component Currency on the Valuation Date with respect to each
payment. 
 (h) For purposes of this Section 312 the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

A “Component Currency” shall mean any Currency which, on the Conversion Date, was a component currency of the
relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro. 
 A “Specified Amount” of a Component
Currency shall mean the number of units of such Component Currency or fractions thereof which were represented in the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro, on the Conversion Date. If after the Conversion Date the official
unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If after the Conversion Date two or more Component Currencies are
consolidated into a single currency, the respective Specified Amounts of such Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single Currency equal to the sum of the respective Specified Amounts of such consolidated Component Currencies
expressed in such single Currency, and such amount shall thereafter be a Specified Amount and such single Currency shall thereafter be a Component Currency. If after the Conversion Date any Component Currency shall be divided into two or more
currencies, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be replaced by amounts of such two or more currencies, having an aggregate Dollar Equivalent value at the Market Exchange Rate on the date of such replacement equal to the Dollar
Equivalent value of the Specified Amount of such former Component Currency at the Market Exchange Rate immediately before such division and such amounts shall thereafter be Specified Amounts and such currencies shall thereafter be Component
Currencies. If, after the Conversion Date of the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the Euro, a Conversion Event (other than any event referred to above in this definition of “Specified Amount”) occurs with respect to
any Component Currency of such currency unit and is continuing on the applicable Valuation Date, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall, for purposes of calculating the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, be converted into Dollars
at the Market Exchange Rate in effect on the Conversion Date of such Component Currency. 
 “Election
Date” shall mean the date for any series of Registered Securities as specified pursuant to clause (15) of Section 301 by which the written election referred to in paragraph (b) above may be made. 

  
 45 









 All decisions and determinations of the Exchange Rate Agent regarding the Dollar Equivalent
of the Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, the Market Exchange Rate and changes in the Specified Amounts as specified above shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all
purposes and irrevocably binding upon the applicable Issuer, the Trustee, the Indenture Agent and all Holders of such Securities denominated or payable in the relevant Currency. The Exchange Rate Agent shall promptly give written notice to the
applicable Issuer, the Trustee and the Indenture Agent of any such decision or determination. 
 In the event that the
applicable Issuer determines in good faith that a Conversion Event has occurred with respect to a Foreign Currency, such Issuer will immediately give written notice thereof to the Indenture Agent and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and the Indenture
Agent will promptly thereafter transmit such notice in the manner provided for in Section 106 to the affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date. In the event the applicable Issuer so determines that a Conversion Event has occurred with
respect to the Euro or any other currency unit in which Securities are denominated or payable, such Issuer will immediately transmit such written notice thereof to the Indenture Agent and to the Exchange Rate Agent (and the Indenture Agent will
promptly thereafter transmit such notice in the manner provided for in Section 106 to the affected Holders) specifying the Conversion Date and the Specified Amount of each Component Currency on the Conversion Date. In the event the applicable

If an Event of Default described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 501 with respect to Securities of any series at the
time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of that

majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such one or more series (as a single class), by written notice to the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences if:

series, as the case may be) which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, 

(C) to the extent lawful, interest on overdue interest, if any, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Securities, and 
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
 (2) all Events of Default
with respect to Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be), other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of or interest on Securities of that series (or of all series, as the case may be) which have become due solely by
such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee. 
 Each Issuer covenants that if: 

(1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security issued by such Issuer when such
interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
 (2) default is made
in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security issued by such Issuer at the Maturity thereof, 
 then such Issuer
will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, and interest on any overdue
principal (and premium, if any) and to the extent lawful on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

If such Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may
institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final 

  
 55 









 
decree and may enforce the same against such Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to
be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of such Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 

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

SECTION 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of such Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of
whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on such Issuer or the Guarantor for the payment of overdue
principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any), or such portion of the principal amount of any series of Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities as
may be specified in the terms of such series, and interest, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities or, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantees and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Securities or the Guarantees or the rights of any Holder 

  
 56 









 
thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, as well as each of their respective agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the
Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 SECTION 506. Application of Money
Collected. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities, or both, as the case may be, and the notation thereon of the

on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and 
 Third: The balance, if
any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. 
 SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this
Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series; 

(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series affected by such
Event of Default (determined as provided in Section 502 and, if more than one series of Securities, as one class), shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as
Trustee hereunder; 

  
 57 









 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority or more in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series affected by such Event of Default (determined as provided in Section 502 and, if more than one series of Securities, as one class); 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Outstanding Securities of such affected series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any
right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders of Outstanding Securities of such affected series. For purposes of clarity, it is hereby understood and agreed that an Event of
Default described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 501 with respect to the Securities of any series shall, for purposes of this Section 507, be deemed to affect only such series of Securities. 

SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein (including, if applicable, Article Fourteen) and in such Security (and, in the case of any Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantees endorsed thereon) of the principal of (and premium, if any) and
(subject to Section 307) interest, if any, on, such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date or, in the case of repayment at the option of the Holder as
contemplated by Article Thirteen hereof, on the Repayment Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

SECTION 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined
adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

  
 58 









 SECTION 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last
paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not, to the extent
permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 SECTION 511.
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any
right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the
Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 512. Control by Holders. 
 The Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series affected by an Event of Default (determined as provided in Section 502 and, if more than one series of Securities, as one class) shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such affected series (and in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the
Guarantees in respect thereof), provided in each case 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with
any rule of law or with this Indenture, 
 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
 (3) the Trustee need not take any action which
might expose the Trustee to personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such affected series not joining therein. 
 For purposes of clarity, it is hereby understood and agreed that an Event of Default described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 501 with respect to the Securities of any series shall,
for purposes of this Section 512, be deemed to affect only such series of Securities. 
 SECTION 513. Waiver of Past
Defaults. 
 Subject to Section 502, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of all series with respect to which a Default shall have occurred and 

  
 59 









 
be continuing (as one class if more than one series) may on behalf of the Holders of all the Outstanding Securities of such affected series waive any such past Default, and its consequences,
except a Default 
 (1) in respect of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any,
on any Security, or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision which under Article Nine cannot be modified or
amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such affected series. 
 Upon any such waiver, any
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon. For purposes of clarity, it is hereby understood and agreed that an Event of Default described in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 501 with respect to the Securities of any series shall, for purposes of
this Section 513, be deemed to affect only such series of Securities. 
 SECTION 514. Waiver of Stay or Extension
Laws. 
 Each Issuer and the Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
each Issuer and the Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 SECTION 515.
Undertaking for Costs. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by its acceptance thereof
shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the
filing by any party litigant in such suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit having
due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders,
holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security (or under any
Guarantee) on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date or, in the case of repayment at the option of Holders as contemplated by Article Thirteen hereof, on
or after the applicable Repayment Date).

 ARTICLE SIX 
 THE TRUSTEE AND THE INDENTURE AGENT 
 SECTION 601. Notice of
Defaults. 
 Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series,
the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except
in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be
protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the
interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided further that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. 
 SECTION 602. Certain Rights of Trustee and Indenture Agent.

 Subject to the provisions of TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d): 

(1) the Trustee and the Indenture Agent may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any

presented by the proper party or parties;

sufficiently evidenced by an Issuer Request or Issuer Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
 (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action
hereunder, the Trustee or the Indenture Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 

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

(5) subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee in case an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, unless such
Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity 

  
 61 









 
satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 

(6) neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, in its
discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor, personally or by agent or attorney; 

(7) in no event shall the Trustee or the Indenture Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), irrespective of whether the Trustee or the Indenture Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action; 
 (8) the Trustee and the Indenture Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform
any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians or attorneys and neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, custodian or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder; 
 (9) neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent shall be liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

(10) (a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual
knowledge, and after the curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee shall not be liable except for
the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee and (b) the duties and obligations of the Indenture

the Indenture Agent shall be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, as applicable, shall have received written notice or
obtained actual knowledge thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice or actual knowledge, the Trustee and the Indenture Agent may conclusively assume that there is no Default or Event of Default; 

  
 62 









 (12) the right of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent to perform any
discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty; and 
 (13) when acting in the
capacity of the Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or the Paying Agent hereunder, the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Indenture Agent hereunder shall also be afforded to it in such capacities as if they were set
forth herein as such. 
 In light of Federal law requiring all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information
that identifies each person who opens an account, when any account is opened, the Indenture Agent will ask for information that will allow the Indenture Agent to identify relevant parties in order to comply with such laws. The parties hereto hereby
acknowledge such information disclosure requirements and agree to comply with all such information disclosure requests from time to time from the Indenture Agent. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

SECTION 603. Trustee and Indenture Agent Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except for the Indenture Agent’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken
as the statements of the Issuers and the Guarantor, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent (including the Indenture Agent) assumes any responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent makes any
representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities except that the Trustee and the Indenture Agent each represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities (in
the case of the Indenture Agent) and perform its obligations hereunder and, in the case of the Trustee, that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Issuers are true and accurate, subject to the
qualifications set forth therein. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent (including the Indenture Agent) shall be accountable for the use or application by the Issuers of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 

SECTION 604. May Hold Securities. 
 The Trustee, the Indenture Agent, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the applicable Issuer or of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, in its individual
or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with such Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Indenture Agent, Authenticating Agent,
Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 

  
 63 









 SECTION 605. Money Held in Trust. 

Money held by the Trustee or the Indenture Agent in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law. Neither the Trustee nor the Indenture Agent shall be under any liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the applicable Issuer. 

SECTION 606. Compensation and Reimbursement. 
 Each of the Issuers and the Guarantor agrees, jointly and severally: 
 (1) to pay to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent from time to time such reasonable compensation as the applicable Issuer and the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall from time to time agree in writing,
for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee and the Indenture Agent upon its request for
all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or the Indenture Agent in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and
counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee and the Indenture Agent for, and to hold each harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder. 
 The obligations of the Issuers under this Section to compensate the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, to pay
or reimburse the Trustee and the Indenture Agent for expenses, disbursements and advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and the Indenture Agent shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture. As security for the performance of such obligations of the Issuers, the Trustee and the Indenture Agent shall each have a claim prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee or
the Indenture Agent as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on particular Securities. 
 When the Trustee or the Indenture Agent incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6), (7) or (8), the expenses (including reasonable
charges and expense of its counsel) of and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 

  
 64 









 SECTION 607. Corporate Trustee and Indenture Agent Required; Eligibility; Conflicting
Interests. 
 The Trustee shall comply with the terms of Section 310(b) of the TIA. There shall be at all times a
Trustee and an Indenture Agent hereunder which shall in the case of the Trustee, be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall in the case both of the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, have a combined capital and surplus
(together with that of its parent, if applicable) of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of Federal, State, territorial or District of Columbia
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.
If at any time the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

SECTION 608. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

(a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee or Indenture Agent and no appointment of a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent pursuant to
this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or Indenture Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 609. 

(b) The Trustee or Indenture Agent may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice
thereof to the Issuers. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent required by Section 609 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee or Indenture Agent within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Trustee or Indenture Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of such series. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the applicable Issuer. 
 (d)
If at any time: 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) after
written request therefor by either Issuer or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the Trustee or Indenture Agent shall cease to be eligible under Section 607 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by either Issuer or by any Holder who has been a bona fide
Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (3) the Trustee or Indenture Agent shall become incapable of
acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or Indenture Agent or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or 

  
 65 









 
control of the Trustee or Indenture Agent or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 
 then, in any such case, (i) either Issuer, by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee or Indenture Agent, as applicable with respect to all Securities or the Securities of such series, or
(ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e), any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee or Indenture Agent, as applicable with respect to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees, or Indenture Agent or Indenture Agents. 

(e) If the Trustee or Indenture Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office
of Trustee or Indenture Agent for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the applicable Issuer, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees, or Indenture Agent or Indenture Agents, with
respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only
one Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of any particular series). If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to
the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the applicable Issuer and the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent, the successor
Trustee or Indenture Agent so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee or
Indenture Agent appointed by such Issuer. If no successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the applicable Issuer or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter
provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (f) The applicable Issuer shall give notice of each
resignation and each removal of the Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of any series to the Holders of Securities of
such series in the manner provided for in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office or Indenture Agent
Corporate Trust Office, as applicable. 
 SECTION 609. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to all Securities, every such successor
Trustee or Indenture Agent so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuers, to the Guarantor and to the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent shall become effective and such successor 

  
 66 









 
Trustee or Indenture Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent; but, on the
request of any Issuer, the Guarantor or the successor Trustee or Indenture Agent, such retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee or Indenture
Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent all property and money held by such retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent
hereunder. 
 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities
of one or more (but not all) series, the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent and each successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of one or more
series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee or Indenture Agent shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and
confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee or Indenture Agent all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such
successor Trustee or Indenture Agent relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee or
Indenture Agent, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee or Indenture Agent, it being
understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts
hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each
such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent relates; but, on request of the applicable Issuer, the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) or any successor Trustee or Indenture Agent, such retiring Trustee
or Indenture Agent shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent all property and money held by such retiring Trustee or Indenture Agent hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which
the appointment of such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent relates. Whenever there is a successor Trustee or Indenture Agent with respect to one or more (but less than all) series of securities issued pursuant to this Indenture, the terms
“Indenture” and “Securities” shall have the meanings specified in the provisos to the respective definitions of those terms in Section 101 which contemplate such situation. 

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

  
 67 









 (d) No successor Trustee or Indenture Agent shall accept its appointment unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor Trustee or Indenture Agent shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 SECTION 610.
Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 Any business entity into which the Trustee or the
Indenture Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Indenture Agent shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all
or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, shall be the successor of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, as applicable, hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible
under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Indenture Agent then in office, any
successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Indenture Agent may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Indenture Agent had itself authenticated such
Securities. In case any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Indenture Agent, any successor Indenture Agent may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor Trustee or the Indenture Agent. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Indenture Agent; provided, however, that the
right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Indenture Agent or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Indenture Agent shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

 SECTION 611. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Indenture Agent shall be an Authentication Agent and the Indenture Agent
may appoint one or more additional Authenticating Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Indenture Agent to authenticate Securities of such series and the Indenture Agent shall give
written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, in the manner provided for in Section 106. Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Indenture Agent hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Agent,
and a copy of such instrument shall be promptly furnished to the applicable Issuer. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Indenture Agent or the certificate of authentication of the
Indenture Agent, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Indenture Agent by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Indenture Agent by an Authenticating
Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the applicable Issuer and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such


  
 68 









 
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 

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

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee, the Indenture Agent and to the applicable
Issuer. The Indenture Agent may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the applicable Issuer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Indenture Agent may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the applicable
Issuer and shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, in the manner provided for in Section 106. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon
acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed
unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Indenture Agent agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from
time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Indenture Agent shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 606. 

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

Neither any Issuer nor the Guarantor shall amalgamate or consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any other Person, unless: 
 (1) in a transaction in which
the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, does not survive or continue in existence or in which the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, transfers or leases its properties and assets substantially as an entirety
to any other Person, the Person formed by such amalgamation or consolidation or into which the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer or otherwise, or which leases,

Canada, (ii) the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia or (iii) if such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or other transaction would not impair (as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Company) the rights of the Holders of the applicable series of Securities (including, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, their rights under the Guarantees), in any other country, provided that if such successor entity is organized under the
laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, the successor entity shall, pursuant to the supplemental indenture referred to in clause (B) below, expressly become obligated
(x) to pay Additional Amounts, adding the name of such successor jurisdiction (if other than Canada) in each place that Canada appears in Section 1005 and Section 1404(4) of this Indenture and adding references to the provinces,
territories, states or other applicable political subdivisions of such successor jurisdiction (if other than Canada) in addition to references to the

province, territory, state or other political subdivision thereof and, if necessary, revising Sections 1404(5) and 1404(6) to extend the 91-day period referred to therein so that it is at least one day longer than any such “preference” or
similar period of the successor jurisdiction; and (B) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, the
obligations of the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor or both, as the case may be, in respect of the applicable series of Securities and, in the case of the Guarantor, the Guarantees and the performance and observance of every covenant of the
Indenture to be performed or observed by the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be; 
 (2)

and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such
transaction have been complied with. 
 In the event that the Company shall enter into any amalgamation, consolidation, merger,
conveyance, transfer or lease of the nature contemplated by the first paragraph of this Section 801, then the supplemental indenture contemplated by clause (1)(B) of such paragraph shall be entered into by the Company both in its capacity
as an Issuer and the Guarantor. 
 SECTION 802. Successor Person Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or amalgamation by an Issuer or the Guarantor with or merger by an Issuer or the Guarantor into any other Person
or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of an Issuer or the Guarantor substantially as an entirety to any other Person in accordance with Section 801, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or amalgamation
or into which the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the
case may be, under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, herein, and in the event of any such transaction, the


  
 73 









 
applicable Issuer (which term shall for this purpose mean the applicable Person named as an “Issuer” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor Person which shall
theretofore become such in the manner described in this Section 802) or the Guarantor (which term shall for this purpose mean the Person named as the “Guarantor” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor Person which
shall theretofore become such in the manner described in this Section 802), as the case may be, except in the case of a lease, shall be discharged of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities, and the Guarantees, as
the case may be, and may be dissolved and liquidated. 
 In the event that a successor Person shall succeed to, and be
substituted for, an Issuer (other than the Company) as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, then such Person shall be deemed to have succeeded to, and to have been substituted for, the Subsidiary Issuer, all on the same terms and subject
to the same conditions set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, mutatis mutandis.

 If, upon any consolidation or amalgamation of an Issuer or the Guarantor with or merger
of an Issuer or the Guarantor into any other Person, or upon any conveyance, lease or transfer of the properties and assets of an Issuer or the Guarantor substantially as an entirety to any other Person, any Principal Assets would thereupon become
subject to any Lien, then unless such Lien could be created pursuant to Section 1009 without equally and ratably securing the Securities, the Company shall, prior to or simultaneously with such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, conveyance,
lease or transfer, secure the Securities (together with, at the Company’s option, any other obligations that are not subordinate in right of payment to the Securities) equally and ratably with (or prior to) any and all obligations which upon
such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer are to become secured by such Lien, or will cause the Securities to be so secured, in each case for so long as such obligations are so secured.

 ARTICLE TEN 
 COVENANTS 
 SECTION 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and
Interest. 
 Each Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities issued by such
Issuer that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. 

SECTION 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The applicable Issuer will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities
of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, where Securities of that series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, as applicable and where notices and demands to or upon
such Issuer in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. If such Securities are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor will maintain an office or agency in The City of New York where notices and demands to or upon the
Guarantor in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. 
 The applicable Issuer and the
Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time such Issuer or the Guarantor shall
fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee and the Indenture Agent with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Indenture Agent Corporate
Trust Office, and each of the Issuers and the Guarantor hereby appoints the same as its agents to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 Either Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may
from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve such Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in accordance with the requirements set
forth above for Securities of any series for such purposes. Such Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or
agency. Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to a series of Securities, the Issuers hereby designate as a Place of Payment for each series of Securities the office or agency of
the Indenture Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoints the Indenture Agent at its Indenture Agent Corporate Trust Office as Paying Agent in such cities and as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. 
 Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 301, if
and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Currency other than Dollars or 

  
 78 









 
(ii) may be payable in a Currency other than Dollars, or so long as it is required under any other provision of the Indenture, then the applicable Issuer will maintain with respect to each such
series of Securities, or as so required, at least one Exchange Rate Agent. 
 SECTION 1003. Money for Securities Payments to
Be Held in Trust. 
 If either Issuer or the Guarantor shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any
series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the
Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as may otherwise be specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) sufficient
to pay the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on Securities of such series so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its
action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the applicable Issuer shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of
Securities, it will, prior to or on each due date of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum (in the Currency described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to
pay the principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) such Issuer will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 The applicable Issuer will cause the bank through which
payment of funds to the Paying Agent will be made to deliver to the Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m. (New York Time) two Business Days prior to the due date of such payment an irrevocable confirmation (by tested telex or authenticated Swift MT 100
Message) of its intention to make such payment. 
 The applicable Issuer will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee or
the Indenture Agent) for any series of Securities to execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, subject to the provisions of this Section,
that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest, if any, on Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

(2) give the Trustee and the Indenture Agent notice of any default by such Issuer (or any other obligor upon the
Securities of such series) in the making of any payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Securities of such series; and 
 (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, forthwith pay to the Trustee or the Indenture Agent all sums so held in trust by
such Paying Agent. 

  
 79 









 The applicable Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee or the Indenture Agent all sums held in trust by such Issuer or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee or
the Indenture Agent upon the same trusts as those upon which sums were held by such Issuer or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee or the Indenture Agent, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further
liability with respect to such sums. 
 Except as provided in the Securities of any series, any money deposited with the
Trustee, the Indenture Agent or any other Paying Agent, or then held by the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), in trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any
Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to such Issuer or the Guarantor, or (if then held by such Issuer or the Guarantor) shall be discharged
from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to such Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), as the case may be, for payment thereof, and all liability of the
Trustee, the Indenture Agent or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee,
the Indenture Agent or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the written direction and at the expense of such Issuer cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper, or cause to be mailed to such Holder
or both, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to
such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 1004. Statement as to Compliance. 

Each of the Issuers and the Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, within 120 days after
the end of each fiscal year (which as of the date hereof ends on the 31st day of December), a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of such Issuer’s or the
Guarantor’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture and as to any default in such performance. For purposes of this Section 1004, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or
requirement of notice under this Indenture. 
 SECTION 1005. Additional Amounts. 

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series, all payments made by or on behalf
of the Company under or with respect to the Securities issued by the Company or any Guarantees will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or
other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or any province or territory thereof or by any authority or agency therein or thereof
having power to tax (hereinafter “Canadian Taxes”), unless the Company is required to withhold or deduct Canadian Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof by the relevant government authority or agency.


  
 80 









 
If the Company is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Canadian Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Securities issued by the Company or the
Guarantees will pay to each Holder of such Securities (or to each Holder of the Securities on which such Guarantees are endorsed, as the case may be) such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount
received by each such Holder after such withholding or deduction (and after deducting any Canadian Taxes on such Additional Amounts) will not be less than the amount such Holder would have received if such Canadian Taxes had not been withheld or
deducted, except as described in this Section 1005. However, no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to a payment made to a Holder (such Holder, an “Excluded Holder”) in respect of the beneficial owner thereof: 

(1) with which the Company does not deal at arm’s length (for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at
the time of the making of such payment; 
 (2) which is subject to such Canadian Taxes by reason of the Holder
being a resident, domiciliary or national of, engaged in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or other physical presence in or otherwise having some connection with Canada or any province or territory thereof otherwise than by the mere
holding of Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder; 
 (3) which is subject to such Canadian Taxes by
reason of the Holder’s failure to comply with any certification, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements if compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or an applicable treaty as a precondition to
exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, such Canadian Taxes (provided that the Company shall give written notice to the Trustee, the Indenture Agent and the Holders of the Securities then outstanding of any change
in such requirements); or 
 (4) which is a fiduciary or partnership or Person other than the sole beneficial
owner of such payment to the extent that the Canadian Taxes would not have been imposed on such payment had such holder been the sole beneficial owner of such Securities. 

The Company will also: 
 (i) make such withholding or deduction; and 
 (ii) remit the full
amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 The Company will furnish to the
Holders of the affected series of Securities, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Canadian Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or other documents evidencing such payment by such person, or if no tax
receipt is issued by the relevant taxing authority, other documents informing the Holders of the Securities that such payment has been made. 
 The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, the Indenture Agent and each Holder of the affected series of Securities (other than an Excluded Holder) from and


  
 81 









 
against and, upon written request, reimburse each such Holder for the amount (excluding any Additional Amounts that have previously been paid by the Company with respect thereto) of: 

(1) any Canadian Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to
the affected series of Securities or the related Guarantees, if applicable; 
 (2) any liability (including
penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; and 
 (3) any Canadian Taxes
imposed with respect to any reimbursement under clause (1) or (2) in this paragraph, but excluding any such Canadian Taxes on such Holder’s net income. 
 At least five (5) days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, if the Company will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to
such payment, the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent an Officers’ Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and specifying the amounts so
payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee or Indenture Agent to pay such Additional Amounts (upon receipt by the Trustee or Indenture Agent from the applicable Issuer or Guarantor, as the case may be, of such
Additional Amounts) to Holders on the date on which such payment is due and payable. 
 In any event, no Additional Amounts or
indemnity amounts will be payable on account of any Canadian Taxes under the provisions set forth above in this Section 1005 in respect of any Security in excess of the Additional Amounts and the indemnity amounts which would be required if, at
all relevant times, the Holder of such Security were a resident of the United States and a qualifying person and/or a financial institution for purposes of the Canada-U.S. Income Tax Convention (1980), as amended, including any protocols thereto.

 Wherever in this Indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (or
premium, if any), interest, if any, or any other amount payable under or with respect to a Security or Guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional
Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. 
 The provisions of this Section 1005 shall survive any
termination, defeasance, covenant defeasance or discharge of this Indenture or of any Securities and the repayment, redemption or other retirement of the Securities. 
 SECTION 1006. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 
 Each of the Issuers and
the Guarantor will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may
be, or upon the income, profits or property of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, and (2) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a


  
 82 









 
Lien upon any property of such Issuer or the Guarantor; provided, however, that such Issuer or the Guarantor shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or
discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. 
 SECTION 1007. Maintenance of Properties. 
 Each of the Issuers and the
Guarantor will cause all its properties to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times except to the extent
that the failure to do so would not materially impair the operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent or restrict the sale, abandonment or other
disposition of any of such properties if such action is, in the judgment of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, desirable in the conduct of the business of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, and not disadvantageous in
any material respect to the Holders. 
 SECTION 1008. Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article Eight, each of the Issuers and the Guarantor will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in
full force and effect its existence (corporate or other) and the rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be; provided, however, that such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may
be, shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Issuer or the
Guarantor and its Subsidiaries as a whole, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 1009. Limitation on Liens. 

The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur or assume any Lien (except for Permitted Liens) on
any Principal Assets securing payment of Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries unless the Securities (together with, at the Company’s option, any other obligations that are not subordinate in right of payment to the Securities)
are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) any and all obligations secured or to be secured by any such Lien and for so long as such obligations are so secured. 
 For greater certainty, the following shall not constitute Liens securing payment of Indebtedness: 
 (a) all rights reserved to or vested in any Governmental Authority by the terms of any lease, license, franchise, grant or permit held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or by any statutory
provision, to terminate any such lease, license, franchise, grant or permit, or to require annual or other periodic payments as a condition of the continuance thereof or to distrain against or to obtain a charge on any property or assets of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the event of failure to make any such annual or other periodic payment; 

  
 83 









 (b) any Lien upon any Principal Asset in favor of any party to a joint
development or operating agreement or any similar Person paying all or part of the expenses of developing or conducting operations for the recovery, storage, treatment, transportation or sale of the mineral resources of the Principal Asset (or
property or assets with which it is united) that secures the payment to such Person of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s proportionate part of such development or operating expenses; 

(c) any acquisition by the Company or by any Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Asset subject to any reservation or
exception under the terms of which any vendor, lessor or assignor creates, reserves or excepts or has created, reserved or excepted an interest in precious metals or any other mineral or timber in place or the proceeds thereof; and 

(d) any conveyance or assignment whereby the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary conveys or assigns to any Person or
Persons an interest in precious metals or any other mineral or timber in place or the proceeds thereof. 
 SECTION 1010.
Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
 The applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) may, with
respect to any series of Securities, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition which affects such series set forth in Section 803 or Sections 1006 to 1009, inclusive, or, as specified pursuant to
Section 301(19) for Securities of such series, in any covenants added to Article Ten pursuant to Section 301(19) in connection with Securities of such series, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of all Outstanding Securities of such series, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition
except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of such Issuer and the Guarantor and the duties of the Trustee to Holders of Securities of such series in respect of any such term, provision or
condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 SECTION 1101. Applicability of Article. 
 Securities of any series which
are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

 SECTION 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee and Indenture Agent. 

The election of an Issuer to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at
the election of the applicable Issuer, such Issuer shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by such Issuer (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee and Indenture Agent of such
Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and shall 

  
 84 









 
deliver to the Trustee and Indenture Agent such documentation and records as shall enable the Indenture Agent to select the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1103. In the case of
any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the applicable Issuer shall furnish the Trustee and Indenture Agent with an
Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
 SECTION 1103. Selection by Indenture Agent of
Securities to Be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to
be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption (i) in the case of Global Securities, by DTC, and (ii) in the case of
Notes in definitive form, by the Indenture Agent pro rata, by lot or in such manner as the Indenture Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of Securities of
such series; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security not redeemed to less than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series established
pursuant to Section 301. 
 The Indenture Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case
of Guaranteed Securities) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall
relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed. 
 SECTION 1104. Notice of Redemption. 
 Except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided for in Section 106 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (1) the Redemption Date, 
 (2) the Redemption Price and the amount
of accrued interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1106, if any, 
 (3) if less than
all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 

(4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on
and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of 

  
 85 









 
such Security, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, 

(5) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as
provided in Section 1106 will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(6) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, if any, maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, and 
 (7) that the redemption is
for a sinking fund, if such is the case. 
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the applicable
Issuer shall be given by such Issuer or, at such Issuer’s request, by the Indenture Agent in the name of, and at the expense of such Issuer (and such notice shall be prepared by such Issuer). 

SECTION 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
 Prior to any Redemption Date, the applicable Issuer shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Indenture Agent or another Paying Agent (or, if such Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate
and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except, if applicable, as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series
and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest, if any, on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 

The applicable Issuer will cause the bank through which payment of funds to the Indenture Agent or the other Paying Agent will be made to
deliver to the Indenture Agent or the other Paying Agent, as the case may be, by 10:00 a.m. (New York Time) two Business Days prior to the due date of such payment an irrevocable confirmation (by tested telex or authenticated Swift MT 100
Message) of its intention to make such payment. 
 SECTION 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except, if applicable, as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if
applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the applicable Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and
accrued interest, if any) such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest, except to the extent provided below, and shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice
maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the applicable Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on
Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior 

  
 86 









 
to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates
according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid
upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such
Security. 
 SECTION 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of Article Twelve) shall be surrendered
at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the applicable Issuer or Indenture Agent so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to such Issuer, the Trustee or Indenture Agent duly executed by, the Holder
thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and such Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee or Indenture Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities
of the same series, each, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed thereon a Guarantee executed by the Guarantor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. 
 SECTION 1108. Tax Redemption. 

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301, the applicable Issuer shall have the right to redeem, at any time, the
Securities of any series issued by such Issuer, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption, upon the giving of a notice and on the
terms and subject to satisfaction of the other conditions described below, if (1) (a) as a result of any change (including any announced prospective change) in or amendment to the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder)
of Canada (or the jurisdiction of organization of the successor to the applicable Issuer (if outside the United States) and, if the Securities of such series are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor (if outside the United States) pursuant to
Section 802) or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding by
a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the date specified pursuant to Section 301(24) with respect to the Securities of such series and which in a written opinion to the
applicable Issuer of legal counsel of recognized standing has resulted or will result (assuming, in the case of any announced prospective change, that such announced change will become effective as of the date specified in such announcement and in
the form announced) in the applicable Issuer or, if the Securities of such series are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor becoming obligated to pay, on the next succeeding date on which interest is due, Additional Amounts with respect to any
Security of such series or any related Guarantee pursuant to Section 1005 or (b) on or after the date specified pursuant to Section 301(24) with respect to the Securities of such series, any action has been taken by any taxing
authority of, or any decision has been rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction in, Canada (or the jurisdiction of organization of the successor to the applicable Issuer 

  
 87 









 
(if outside the United States) or, if the Securities of such series are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor (if outside the United States) pursuant to Section 802) or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or decision was rendered with respect to the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor, or any change,
amendment, application or interpretation shall be officially proposed, which, in any such case, in the written opinion to the applicable Issuer will result (assuming, in the case of any announced prospective change, that such announced change will
become effective as of the date specified in such announcement and in the form announced) in the applicable Issuer or, if the Securities of such series are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor becoming obligated to pay, on the next succeeding date
on which interest is due, Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of such series or any related Guarantee and (2) in any such case, the applicable Issuer or, if the Securities of such series are Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor (or
its successor pursuant to Section 802), in its business judgment, determines that such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to it (or its successor pursuant to Section 802); provided,
however, that (i) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect; and (ii) with respect to any jurisdiction of organization of any such successor other than Canada or
any province or territory of Canada, or the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, the consolidation, amalgamation, merger or other transaction that resulted in such successor becoming the successor to the applicable Issuer or
the Guarantor was not undertaken for the primary purpose of redeeming the Securities of such series. Any redemption pursuant to this Section 1108 shall be effected in accordance with the other provisions of this Article Eleven, including,
without limitation, the first paragraph of Section 1104. 
 In the event that the applicable Issuer elects to redeem the
Securities of any series issued by it pursuant to this Section 1108, it shall deliver to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, prior to the giving of the notice of redemption to Holders, an Officers’ Certificate stating that it is entitled
to redeem the Securities of such series pursuant to this Section upon which the Trustee and Indenture Agent shall be entitled to fully rely with no liability therefor. 
 SECTION 1109. Special Mandatory Redemption 
 If specified pursuant to
Section 301 for a particular series of Securities, the applicable Issuer shall be required to redeem the entire amount of the Securities of such series issued by such Issuer, at a Redemption Price specified as contemplated by Section 301,
upon the occurrence of any event specified (or the failure of any specified event to occur). 
 A special mandatory redemption
pursuant to this Section 1109 shall be effected pursuant to the other provisions of this Article Eleven, except that, with respect to Section 1104, notice will be mailed to each Holder subject to redemption no later than 10 Business
Days after the condition for the special mandatory redemption has been met (or such other time as is specified pursuant to Section 301), and the other time periods contained in such Section shall not apply. 

  
 88 









 ARTICLE TWELVE 
 SINKING FUNDS 
 SECTION 1201. Applicability of Article. 

Retirements of Securities of any series pursuant to any sinking fund shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and
(except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of
such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund
payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 

SECTION 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

Subject to Section 1203, in lieu of making all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of a
series in cash, the applicable Issuer may at its option (1) deliver to the Indenture Agent Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any previously called for redemption) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by such Issuer and/or
(2) receive credit for the principal amount of Securities of such series which have been previously redeemed either at the election of such Issuer pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking
fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of the same series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such
Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided, however, that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Indenture Agent at the
Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

SECTION 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the applicable Issuer will deliver to the Indenture Agent an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of
the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except, if
applicable, as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by
delivering or crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202 (which Securities will, if not previously delivered, accompany such certificate) and whether such Issuer intends to exercise its right to make a permitted optional
sinking fund payment with respect to such series. Such certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery such Issuer shall be obligated to 

  
 89 









 
make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the failure of such Issuer to deliver such certificate,
the sinking fund payment due on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date for that series shall be paid entirely in cash and shall be sufficient to redeem the principal amount of such Securities subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment
without the option to deliver or credit Securities as provided in Section 1202 and without the right to make any optional sinking fund payment, if any, with respect to such series. 

Not more than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Indenture Agent shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon
such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of, and at the expense of, the applicable Issuer in the manner provided in Section 1104 (and such
notice shall be prepared by the applicable Issuer). Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. 

Prior to any sinking fund payment date, the applicable Issuer shall pay to the Indenture Agent or another Paying Agent (or, if such
Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) in cash a sum equal to any interest that will accrue to the date fixed for redemption of Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such
sinking fund payment date pursuant to this Section 1203. 
 The applicable Issuer will cause the bank through which payment
of funds to the Indenture Agent or the other Paying Agent will be made to deliver to the Indenture Agent or the other Paying Agent, as the case may be, by 10:00 a.m. (New York Time) two Business Days prior to the due date of such payment an
irrevocable confirmation (by tested telex or authenticated Swift MT 100 Message) of its intention to make such payment. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a sinking fund for any series of Securities, if at any time the amount of cash to be paid
into such sinking fund on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date, together with any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payment or payments for such series, does not exceed in the aggregate $100,000, the Indenture Agent, unless
requested by the applicable Issuer, shall not give the next succeeding notice of the redemption of Securities of such series through the operation of the sinking fund. Any such unused balance of moneys deposited in such sinking fund shall be added
to the sinking fund payment for such series to be made in cash on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date or, at the written request of such Issuer, shall be applied at any time or from time to time to the purchase of Securities of such series
by such Issuer, by public or private purchase, in the open market or otherwise, at a purchase price for such Securities (excluding accrued interest and brokerage commissions, for which the Indenture Agent or any other Paying Agent will be reimbursed
by such Issuer) not in excess of the principal amount thereof.

 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 

REPAYMENT AT OPTION OF HOLDERS 
 SECTION 1301. Applicability of Article. 
 Repayment of Securities of any
series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance
with this Article. 
 SECTION 1302. Repayment of Securities. 

Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in
the terms of such Securities, be repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with interest, if any, thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant to the terms of such Securities. Each of the Issuers covenants
that, with respect to Securities issued by such Issuer, on or before the Repayment Date it will deposit with the Indenture Agent or with another Paying Agent (or, if such Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as
provided in Section 1003) an amount of money in the Currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except, if applicable, as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 for the Securities of such series and except, if
applicable, as provided in Sections 312(b), 312(d) and 312(e)) sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest, if any, on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid on such date. 
 SECTION 1303. Exercise of Option. 
 Securities of any series subject to
repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an “Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of such Securities. To be repaid at the option of the Holder, any Security so providing for such repayment, with the
“Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of such Security duly completed by the Holder (or by the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), must be received by the applicable Issuer at the Place of Payment therefor
specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place or places or which such Issuer shall from time to time notify the Holders of such Securities) not earlier than 45 days nor later than 30 days prior to the Repayment Date. If
less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of such Security to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for Securities of such series, and
the denomination or denominations of the Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The principal amount of any Security
providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of
which such Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless
waived by the applicable Issuer. 

  
 91 









 SECTION 1304. When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable.

 If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as
provided in this Article and as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable and shall be paid by the applicable Issuer on the
Repayment Date therein specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless such Issuer shall default in the payment of such Securities on such Repayment Date together with, if applicable, accrued interest, if any, thereon to the Repayment Date)
such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment in accordance with such provisions, the principal amount of such Security so to be repaid shall be paid by the
applicable Issuer, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment Date; provided, however, that installments of interest, if any, whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable to the Holders of
such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 

If the principal amount of any Security surrendered for repayment shall not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, such principal amount
(together with interest, if any, thereon accrued to such Repayment Date) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such
Security. 
 SECTION 1305. Securities Repaid in Part. 

Upon surrender of any Registered Security which is to be repaid in part only, the applicable Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Agent
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of such Issuer, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series each, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, having endorsed thereon
the Guarantee executed by the Guarantor, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

 ARTICLE FOURTEEN 
 DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 SECTION 1401. Option to Effect
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of
any series, the provisions of this Article Fourteen shall apply to each series of Securities, and the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) may, at its option, effect defeasance of the Securities of a series under
Section 1402, or covenant defeasance of a series under Section 1403 in accordance with the terms of such Securities and in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series, the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed 

  
 92 









 
Securities) may effect defeasance or covenant defeasance only with respect to all of the Securities of such series. 
 SECTION 1402. Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the exercise by the
applicable Issuer or the Guarantor of the above option applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of a series, such Issuer and, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor shall each be deemed to have been discharged from
its obligations with respect to such Outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the applicable Issuer and the
Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding Securities and Guarantees, respectively, which shall thereafter be deemed to be
“Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1405 and the other provisions of this Indenture referred to in (A), (B), (C) and (D) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Securities and
Guarantees, respectively, and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and Guarantees are concerned (and the Trustee and Indenture Agent, at the expense of the applicable Issuer, shall execute proper instruments prepared by such Issuer
acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1404 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the applicable Issuer’s, the
Trustee’s, the Indenture Agent’s and, if applicable, the Guarantor’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 113, 114, 305, 306, 1002, 1003, 1005 and 1108 (and any other applicable provisions of
Article Eleven), (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and Indenture Agent hereunder and (D) this Article Fourteen. Subject to compliance with this Article Fourteen, the applicable Issuer or
the Guarantor may exercise its option under this Section 1402 notwithstanding the prior exercise of the option under Section 1403 with respect to such Securities and any related Guarantees. 

SECTION 1403. Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the exercise by the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) of the above option applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of a series, such
Issuer and the Guarantor shall be released from their obligations under Article Eight and Sections 1006 through 1009, and, if specified pursuant to Section 301, their obligations under any other covenant, in each case with respect to such
Outstanding Securities and any related Guarantees, respectively, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and such Securities and any related Guarantees shall
thereafter be deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed
“Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities and any related Guarantees, the applicable Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantor may omit
to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of reference in
any such covenant to any other provision herein or 

  
 93 









 
in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 501(4) or Section 501(9) or otherwise, as the case may be, but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities and any related Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. 
 SECTION 1404. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The
following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1402 or Section 1403 to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series: 
 (1) The applicable Issuer or, in the case of Guaranteed Securities, the Guarantor has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Indenture Agent (or a trustee satisfying the requirements of
Section 607 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Fourteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A) an amount (in such Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity), or (B) Government Obligations applicable to such Securities (determined on the basis of
the Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the
due date of any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, or any other sums due under such Securities, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Indenture Agent, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Indenture Agent (or qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge,
(i) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, and any other sums due under such Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity (or Redemption Date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any) or installment of
interest, if any, or any other sums and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such Outstanding Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture and of such Securities; provided that the Indenture Agent shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such Government Obligations to said payments with respect to such Securities. Before such a
deposit, the applicable Issuer may give to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent, in accordance with Section 1102 hereof, a notice of its election to redeem all or any portion of such Outstanding Securities at a future date in accordance with the
terms of the Securities of such series and Article Eleven hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable. Such irrevocable redemption notice, if given, shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. 

(2) In the case of an election under Section 1402, the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed
Securities) shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Indenture Agent an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that (x) such Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of execution 

  
 94 









 
of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such
Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred. 
 (3) In the case of an election under
Section 1403, the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) shall have delivered to the Trustee and Indenture Agent an Opinion of Counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders of such Outstanding
Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred. 
 (4) The applicable Issuer or the Guarantor
(in the case of Guaranteed Securities) has delivered to the Trustee and Indenture Agent an Opinion of Counsel in Canada or a ruling from Canada Customs and Revenue Agency to the effect that the Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not
recognize income, gain or loss for Canadian federal or provincial income tax or other tax purposes as a result of such defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to Canadian federal and provincial income tax and other tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case had such defeasance or covenant defeasance not occurred (and for the purposes of such opinion, such Canadian counsel shall assume that Holders of such Outstanding
Securities include Holders who are not resident in Canada). 
 (5) The Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed
Securities) is not an “insolvent person” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) and the applicable Issuer is not an “insolvent person” under the relevant legislation in the jurisdiction of the applicable
Issuer, in each case, on the date of such deposit or at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

 (6) No Event of Default or event that, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, shall
constitute an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as paragraphs (6), (7) and (8) of Section 501 are concerned, at any time during the period
ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 

(7) The applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) has delivered to the Trustee and the
Indenture Agent an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit shall not cause the Trustee or the trust so created to be subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

  
 95 









 (8) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or
violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) is a party or by which it is bound. 

(9) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in
compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations in connection therewith pursuant to Section 301. 
 (10) The applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) shall have delivered to the Trustee and Indenture Agent an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance under Section 1402 or the covenant defeasance under Section 1403 (as the case may be) have been complied with. 

SECTION 1405. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be
provided pursuant to Section 301) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Indenture Agent (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 1405, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1404 in
respect of such Outstanding Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may
determine (other than, with respect only to defeasance pursuant to Section 1402, any Issuer or the Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates), to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to Section 301, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 1404(1) has been made, (a) the Holder of a Security in respect of
which such deposit was made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 312(b) or the terms of such Security to receive payment in a Currency other than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 1404(1) has been made in respect
of such Security, or (b) a Conversion Event occurs as contemplated in Section 312(d) or 312(e) or by the terms of any Security in respect of which the deposit pursuant to Section 1404(1) has been made, the indebtedness represented by
such Security shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Security as they become due out of the proceeds yielded by converting
(from time to time as specified below in the case of any such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such Security into the Currency in which such Security becomes payable as a result of such election or Conversion Event
based on the applicable Market Exchange Rate for such Currency in effect on the third Business Day prior to each payment date, except, with respect to a Conversion Event, for such Currency in effect (as nearly as feasible) at the time of the
Conversion Event. 

  
 96 









 The applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), as the case
may be, shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1404 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than
any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of such Outstanding Securities. 
 Anything in
this Article Fourteen to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the applicable Issuer or the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities), as the case may be, from time to time upon request of such Issuer or the
Guarantor any money or Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 1404 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Article. 

SECTION 1406. Reinstatement. 
 If the Indenture Agent or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 1405 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining,
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the applicable Issuer and the Guarantor (in the case of Guaranteed Securities) under this Indenture and such Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no
deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 1402 or 1403, as the case may be, until such time as the Indenture Agent or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 1405; provided, however, that
if such Issuer makes any payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any such Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, such Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to
receive such payment from the money held by the Indenture Agent or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE FIFTEEN 

GUARANTEE OF GUARANTEED SECURITIES 
 SECTION 1501. Guarantee. 
 The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees to each Holder of a Guaranteed Security of each series authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Agent and to the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on such Guaranteed Security, the due and punctual payment of any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such Guaranteed Security, and the due and punctual payment of the sinking fund or analogous payments referred to
therein, if any, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether on the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of this Indenture. In case of the failure of the
Subsidiary Issuer punctually to make any such payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, or any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to any Guaranteed Security, or any such sinking fund or analogous payment, the Guarantor
hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and 

  
 97 









 
payable, whether on the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Subsidiary Issuer. 

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be
absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any Guaranteed Security or this Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of any Guaranteed Security or this
Indenture, or any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Subsidiary Issuer with respect thereto or hereto, by the Holder of any Security or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of any Guaranteed
Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof, or increase the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable
upon a declaration of acceleration or the maturity thereof pursuant to Article Five of this Indenture. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the
Subsidiary Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Subsidiary Issuer, protest or notice with respect to any Guaranteed Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or with respect to any Additional Amounts that may be payable
with respect to such Guaranteed Security or any sinking fund or analogous payment required under any Guaranteed Security and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that its obligations under this Article Fifteen and the Guarantees will not be
discharged except by payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on and any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to the Guaranteed Securities. 

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of any Guaranteed Security and the Trustee against the Subsidiary Issuer in
respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fifteen and its Guarantee of such Security; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any
payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Guaranteed Securities of the same series issued under this Indenture and any Additional Amounts with respect to such
Guaranteed Securities shall have been paid in full. 
 SECTION 1502. Execution and Delivery of Guarantees. 

The Guarantees to be endorsed on the Guaranteed Securities of each series shall include the terms of the guarantees set forth in
Section 1501 and any other terms that may be set forth in the form established pursuant to Section 204 with respect to such series. The Guarantor hereby agrees to execute the Guarantees, in a form established pursuant to Section 204,
to be endorsed on each Guaranteed Security authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Agent. 
 The Guarantees shall be
executed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or a Vice President, together with any one of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary, the Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer of the Guarantor. The signature
of any of these officers on the Guarantees may be manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Guarantees. 

  
 98 









 Guarantees bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time
the proper officers of the Guarantor shall bind the Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of the Securities on which such Guarantees are endorsed or
did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
 The delivery of any Guaranteed Security by the Indenture Agent,
after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 1501 shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Guaranteed Security. 
 SECTION 1503. Notice to Indenture
Agent. 
 The Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Indenture Agent of any fact known to the Guarantor which
prohibits the making of any payment to or by the Indenture Agent or in respect of the Guarantee pursuant to the provisions of this Article Fifteen. 
 SECTION 1504. This Article Not to Prevent Events of Default. 
 The failure
to make a payment on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Guaranteed Securities by reason of any provision of this Article will not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default.

 (the “Issuer”) —% Notes
 due — (the “Securities”)


 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

This letter relates to $________ principal amount of Securities which are evidenced by the Restricted Global Security (CUSIP No.
[            ]) and held with the Depositary in the name of Cede & Co. and held for the benefit of _________ (the beneficial owner) (the “Transferor”). The Transferor has
requested a transfer of such beneficial interest in the Securities to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of an equal principal amount of Securities evidenced by the Regulation S Global Security (CUSIP No.
[            ]). 
 In connection with such request and in respect
of such Securities, we hereby certify that such transfer has been effected in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global Securities and pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 903, Rule 904 or Rule 144 under
the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and accordingly we hereby further certify that: 
 (A) If the transfer has been effected pursuant to Rule 903 or Rule 904: 
  

	 	(1)	the offer of the Securities was not made to a person in the United States; 


 

	 	(2)	either (a) at the time the buy order was originated, the transferee was outside the United States or we and any person acting on our behalf reasonably believed
that the transferee was outside the United States or (b) the transaction was executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated off-shore securities market and neither we nor any 


 

  
 B-1-1










	 	 
person acting on our behalf knows that the transaction has been pre-arranged with a buyer in the United States; 



 

	 	(3)	no directed selling efforts have been made in the United States in contravention of the requirements of Rule 903(b) or Rule 904(b) of Regulation S, as
applicable; and 

  

	 	(4)	the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 


(B) If the transfer has been effected pursuant to Rule 144: 

 

	 	(1)	a period of at least one year has elapsed since [            ,
            ]; 

  

	 	(2)	the Transferor during the 90 days preceding the date of such transfer was not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of
the Issuer, and it is not acting on behalf of such affiliate; and 

  

	 	(3)	such Person to whom such transfer is being made is not an “affiliate” of the Issuer. 


Upon giving effect to this request to exchange a beneficial interest in such Restricted Global Security for a beneficial interest in a
Regulation S Global Security, the resulting beneficial interest shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer, if any, applicable to a Regulation S Global Security pursuant to the Indenture and the Securities. 

You and the Issuer are entitled to rely upon this letter and are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any
interested party in any administrative or legal proceedings or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby. Terms used in this certificate have the meanings set forth in Regulation S.
