and that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be equal to the amount of the principal thereof that could be declared to be due and payable pursuant to the terms of such Original Issue Discount Security at the time the taking of
such action by the Holders of such requisite principal amount is evidenced to the Trustee as provided in Section 1.4(a), and, provided, further, that Securities owned beneficially by the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities or any Affiliate (other than officers or directors of the Company) of the Company or such other obligor, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying
upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities that the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as
Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the
Company or such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as to such right, the advice of counsel shall be full protection in respect of any decision made by the Trustee in accordance with such advice. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall
furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and identifying all securities known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above-described persons; and, subject to the terms of this Indenture,
the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to

 8 








 
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or
Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know,

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes
referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner that the Trustee
deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine; and the Trustee may in any instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Section.

same, shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (d) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of any Securities any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company 

  
 9 








 
may, at its option, by Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders of Securities entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but
only the Holders of Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or 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 six months after the record date. 

(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind every
future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security
Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 

Section 1.5 Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (a) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for
every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or 

(b) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its Treasurer at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished
in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 
 Section 1.6 Notice to Holders of Securities; Waiver. 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the form of Securities of any particular series pursuant to the provisions of this
Indenture, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of Securities of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Security affected
by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 

In any case where notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so
mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. In 

  
 10 








 
the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with
the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
 Where this Indenture provides for
notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders of Securities shall be
filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

Section 1.7 Language of Notices, Etc. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the
English language, except that, if the Company so elects, any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication. 

Section 1.8 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any
of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provisions shall control. 
 Section 1.9 Effect of Headings and Table of
Contents. 
 The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction hereof. 
 Section 1.10 Successors and Assigns. 

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

Section 1.11 Separability Clause. 

In case any provision in this Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 1.12 Benefits of Indenture. 

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

 Section 1.13 Governing Law. 

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

Section 1.14 Legal Holidays. 

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

Section 1.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. 

EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 1.16 Force Majeure. 

In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of
or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and
interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to
resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such reproduction of the seal or any such signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. 
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; and 
 (c) as to such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request; 

  
 16 








 provided, however, that if all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it
shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of each Security, but such Opinion of Counsel, with appropriate modifications, may instead be delivered at or prior to the time of the first issuance of Securities of
such series. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture
will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such
action may not lawfully be taken. 
 If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.1 that Securities of a series may be issued
in whole or in part in global form, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Securities in global form that
(i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an authorized aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series and tenor to be represented by one or more Securities in global form,
(ii) shall be registered, in the name of the Depositary for such Security or Securities in global form or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instruction and
(iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Notes in certificated form, this Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the
Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. Unless this certificate is presented by
an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company to the issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of CEDE & CO. or such other name as requested by
an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company and any payment is made to CEDE & CO., any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful since the registered owner hereof,
CEDE & CO., has an interest herein.” Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 3.1 for a Security in global form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation. 
 Each Security shall be dated the
date of its authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.2 or 6.14 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such
certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 Section 3.4 Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee, and upon Company Order the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 3.3, temporary Securities of such series that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of
the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form without coupons and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities
may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global form, representing all of the Outstanding Securities of such series and tenor. 

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary
Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable
upon request for definitive Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to
Section 10.2, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal
amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations of the same series containing identical terms and provisions. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 with respect to a temporary Security in global form, until so
exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 

Section 3.5 Registration, Transfer and Exchange. 

With respect to the Securities of each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept, at an office or agency of the Company maintained
pursuant to Section 10.2, a register (herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Securities of
each series and of transfers of the Securities of each series. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers and exchanges of Securities as herein provided; provided,
that the Company may, from time to time, designate (or change any designation of) any other Person or Persons to act as Security Registrar or co-Security Registrars with respect to the Securities of one or more series, with notice to the Trustee and
as provided in Section 1.6 to the Holders. At all reasonable times the Security Register shall be open for inspection by the Company. In the event that the Trustee shall not be the Security Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the
Security Register at all reasonable times. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at any office or
agency of the Company maintained for that series pursuant to Section 10.2, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one
or more new Securities of the same series of an authorized denomination, of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions. 

  
 18 








 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or
in part for the individual Securities represented thereby, in definitive form, a Security in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a
nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series containing identical terms
and provisions, in any authorized denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency of the Company maintained for that series pursuant to Section 10.2.
Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for
the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 3.3, the Company, by Company Order, shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities
of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company’s election pursuant to
Section 3.1(c) shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such
series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount and of like terms and tenor equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in
exchange for such Security or Securities in global form. 
 The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that individual
Securities of any series issued in global form shall no longer be represented by such Security or Securities in global form. In such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery
of individual definitive Securities of such series and of the same terms and tenor, will authenticate and deliver individual Securities of such series in definitive form in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form. 

If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to a series of Securities, the Depositary for such series of Securities
may surrender a Security in global form for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for individual Securities of such series in definitive form and of like terms and tenor on such terms as are acceptable to the Company, the Trustee
and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of individual definitive Securities of such series, shall authenticate and deliver, without service
charge: 
 (a) to the Depositary or to each Person specified by such Depositary a new individual Security or Securities of the same series
and of the same tenor, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Security in global form; and 

  
 19 








 (b) to such Depositary a new Security in global form in a denomination equal to the difference,
if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Security in global form and the aggregate principal amount of the individual Securities delivered to Holders thereof. 

In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three paragraphs, the Company will execute and the Trustee pursuant to a Company Order
will authenticate and deliver individual Securities in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. 
 Upon the exchange of a
Security in global form for Securities in definitive form, at the direction of the Company, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Securities issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section shall be
registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee
shall deliver such Securities to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered or to the Depositary. 
 Whenever any
Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the Company or the
Security Registrar for such series of Security presented) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and such 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 Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4, 9.6 or 11.7 not
involving any transfer. 
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any 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 11.3 

  
 20 








 
and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the
case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed. 
 Section 3.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and
Stolen Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee, at the
direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of
like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 

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

Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 

Section 3.7 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Interest on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, if so provided in
such Security, be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 

Any interest on any Security of any series that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for
such Security (herein called 

  
 21 








 
“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid
by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below: 
 (a) The Company may elect to make payment
of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities affected (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be
fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with
the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when
deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more
than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record
Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such Securities at his
address as it appears in the Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a
newspaper, customarily published in the English language on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special
Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 

(b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable
by the Trustee. 
 Interest on Securities of any series that bear interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of the person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer or other electronic means. 
 Subject to the
foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.5, 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. 

  
 22 








 Section 3.8 Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 3.5 and 3.7) interest on and Additional Amounts with
respect to, such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

None of the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, the Security Registrar or any co-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 and each of them may act or refrain from acting without liability on any information relating to such records provided by the Depositary. 

Section 3.9 Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund
payment, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, shall be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at
any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee
at the direction of the Company. 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 Trustee
shall be cancelled by it in its customary manner unless by a Company Order the Company directs their return to it. 
 Section 3.10
Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series, interest on the
Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 3.11 CUSIP
Numbers. 
 The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee
shall us “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as
contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 ARTICLE 4 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 4.1 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

Upon the direction of the Company by a Company Order, this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of
registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for, rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee set forth in the last paragraph of this Section and any right to receive Additional Amounts, as provided in
Section 10.4), and the Trustee, pursuant to a Company Order and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instructions acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when: 

(a) either: 
 (i)
all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.6, and (B) Securities for whose payment money has
theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation: 

(1) have become due and payable, or 

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

(3) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 
 and the Company, in
the case of (1), (2) or (3) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge, or U.S. Government Obligations, maturing as to
principal and paying interest in such amounts and at such times as will insure the availability of cash sufficient to pay and discharge, the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities that have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

 (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 

  
 24 








 (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so by Company Order with respect to Securities of all series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. In the event there are two or more Trustees
hereunder, then the effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such instruments from all Trustees hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Holders under Section 10.1 (or
the obligations of any guarantor or other obligor with respect to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, as set forth in any supplemental indenture) and to the Trustee under Section 6.7 and, if money shall have been deposited
with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.2 and the last paragraph of Section 10.3 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

Section 4.2 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall
be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities, and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest and Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law. 
 ARTICLE 5 

REMEDIES 

Section 5.1 Events of Default. 

“Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever
the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body): 
 (a) default in the payment of any interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of any of the Securities of such series
as and when such interest or Additional Amounts becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or 
 (b)
default in the payment of all or any part of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of such series as and when the same becomes due and payable at Maturity, or default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as
due and payable by the terms of any of the Securities of such series; or 

  
 25 








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

(d) a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or
proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any
substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 

(e) the Company shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself
or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of it or any substantial
part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the foregoing; or 

(f) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series. 

Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.1(d) or (e)) occurs and is continuing, then, and in each and every case, unless the principal of all of the Securities of such series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), may declare the entire principal of all Securities of such series, or such lesser amount as
may be provided for in the Securities of such series, and the interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become due and payable immediately. 

  
 26 








 If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d) or (e) occurs and is continuing,
then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all the Securities shall have already become due and payable, the entire principal of all the Outstanding Securities, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of
any series, and interest accrued thereon shall automatically become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 

At any time after a declaration of acceleration (other than resulting from an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d) or (e)) with
respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may waive all defaults with respect to such series and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

(a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 

(i) all overdue installments of interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of all Securities of that series,

 (ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series that have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, 
 (iii)
to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest and Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and 

(iv) 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 
 (b) all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series, other than the
non-payment of the principal of the Securities of that series that has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

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

Section 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if: 

(a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security when such
interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
 (b) default is
made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at its Maturity, 

  
 27 








 the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities the
whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest
shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for 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 the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may
institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the
moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect
and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary 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 5.4 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be
due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the
Securities of that series, of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

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

  
 28 








 and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities, to pay to the Trustee any amount
due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7. 

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a
Security any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security in any such proceeding.

 Section 5.5 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery or judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered. 
 Section 5.6 Application of Money Collected. 

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee
and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender
thereof if fully paid: 
 First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.7; and 

Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any
Additional Amounts payable in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and
premium, if any), interest and Additional Amounts, respectively; and 
 Third: The balance, if any, to the Company or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may direct.

 Section 5.7 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, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) such Holder has previously
given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 
 (b) the Holders of
not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(c) 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; 
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee
during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 
 it being understood and intended
that no one or more 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 such Holders or Holders of any other series, or
to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 5.8 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 of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.5 and 3.7) interest on and any Additional Amounts in respect of such Security on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in
the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 5.9 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such
proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall, subject


  
 30 








 
to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall
continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as provided in Section 5.7 and except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder,
or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 5.11
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of
Securities may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities. 

Section 5.12 Control by Holders of Securities. 

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

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

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; and 

(c) such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Securities of such series. 

Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

Prior to a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity of the Securities of any series as provided in Section 5.2 (other than resulting
from an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d) or (e)), the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past
default or Event of Default with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default: 
 (a) in the payment of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security of such series, or 
 (b) in respect of a
covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 

  
 31 








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

Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court
may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit,
other than the Trustee, of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, including the Trustee,
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 or by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Security for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on or any
Additional Amounts in respect of any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) or interest on any overdue principal of any Security.

 ARTICLE 6 
 THE
TRUSTEE 
 Section 6.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

(a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default known to the Trustee, 

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties, and only such duties, as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and
no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad
faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 

  
 32 








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

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

(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and 
 (iv) no
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 
 Section 6.2 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 by mail
to all Holders of Securities of such series, notice of such default hereunder known to a Responsible Officer of 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 (and premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, 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 

  
 33 








 
such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and responsible officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the
withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series; provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.1(c) with respect to Securities of such series,
no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of
Default, with respect to Securities of such series. A default shall not be considered known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless it is a default in the payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest when due under
Section 5.1(a) or (b) or a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof, in accordance with this Indenture, from the Company or from the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of the series to which the default relates. 
 Section 6.3 Certain Rights of Trustee. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1: 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

(b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than
delivery of any Security to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 3.3, 3.5 or 3.6, which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced
by a Board Resolution; 
 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved
or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and rely upon an Officers’ Certificate, an
Opinion of Counsel, or both; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection 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; 

(e) 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 satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may 

  
 34 








 
see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent
or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 

(g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 

(h) the permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not
be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct; 
 (i) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given
to the Trustee, including, but not limited to, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, whether as agent or otherwise, and to each agent, custodian and other person
employed to act hereunder; 
 (j) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith
and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 
 (k) in
no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective or whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; 
 (l) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or Event
of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event that is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice
references the Securities and this Indenture; and 
 (m) the Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the
names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 

Section 6.4 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements
of the Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee or any
Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 

  
 35 








 Section 6.5 May Hold Securities. 

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any
other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.8 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 6.6 Money Held in Trust. 

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

Section 6.7 Compensation and Reimbursement. 

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

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall be
determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct; and 
 (c) to fully indemnify the Trustee and its directors,
officers, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their 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 themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder. 

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of
any series upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities. 

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

  
 36 








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

Section 6.8 Disqualifications; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the
meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. 

Section 6.9 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder, which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States
of America, any State or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority.
If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 
 Section 6.10 Resignation and Removal;
Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this
Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may
resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the
Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to 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 a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 
 (d) If at any time: 

(i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.8 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a
Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (ii) the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible under Section 6.9 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder of a Security, or 

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

  
 37 








 then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all
Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of any series 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 with respect to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, remove the
Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such Securities. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable
of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of any series shall have been appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee
appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder
of a Security 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
with respect to the Securities of such series. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such Securities. 

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the
Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 6.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, 

  
 38 








 
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and that
(1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or
those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or
change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, 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 that no Trustee shall be
responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights
and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and each such successor Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee,
such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that
or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company
shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 

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

  
 39 








 Section 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, by sale or otherwise, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if
such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against
Company. 
 If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). 

Section 6.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities that shall be authorized to act on
behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue or exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company 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 Authenticating Agent 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 Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent 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 

  
 40 








 
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, by sale or
otherwise, 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 and to the Company. The Trustee may
at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent that shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of such appointment by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. 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 Company agrees to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section. 
 The provisions of Sections 3.8, 6.4 and 6.5 shall be applicable to each Authenticating
Agent. 
 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 Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

HOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY 

Section 7.1 Company To Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders. 

The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee: 

(a) semi-annually, not later than May 1 and November 1 each year, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the
names and addresses of the Holders of Securities of each series as of the April 15 and October 15 preceding such May 1 or November 1, and 

(b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of
similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however, that, so long as the Trustee is the Security Registrar, no such list shall be required to be furnished. 

Section 7.2 Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. 

(a) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of Securities
(i) contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee for each series as provided in Section 7.1, and (ii) received by the Trustee for each series in the capacity of Security Registrar if the Trustee is then acting in such
capacity. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 7.1 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 
 (b)
If three or more Holders of Securities of any series (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee proof satisfactory to the Trustee that each such applicant has owned a Security of
such series for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders of Securities of such series or with the Holders of all Securities with
respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication, which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five business days after the
receipt of such application, at its election, either 
 (i) afford such applicants access to the information preserved at the
time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a), or 
 (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of
Holders of Securities whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a), and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other
communication, if any, specified in such application. 

  
 42 








 If the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee
shall, upon written request of such applicants, mail to each Holder of Securities whose name and address appears in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a), a copy of the form of proxy or other
communication, which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days
after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the
best interests of the Holders of Securities or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written
statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the
objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders of Securities with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender;
otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 
 (c) Every Holder of
Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Security Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such
information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in accordance with Section 7.2(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing
any material pursuant to a request made under Section 7.2(b). 
 Section 7.3 Reports by Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant
to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. If required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall, within sixty days after each May 15 following the date of the initial
issuance of Securities under this Indenture deliver to Holders a brief report, dated as of such May 15, which complies with the provisions of such Section 313(a). 

(b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange, if any,
upon which the Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Company. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing when the Securities are listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 

  
 43 








 Section 7.4 Reports by the Company. 

The Company shall: 
 (a) file
with the Trustee, within 30 days after the Company is required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the
Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or, if the Company is not
required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of said Sections, then it shall file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the
supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports that may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be
prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations; 
 (b) file with the Trustee and Commission, in accordance with rules and
regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such
rules and regulations; and 
 (c) transmit to Holders within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries of any
information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission. 

Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such
shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to
rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 ARTICLE 8 

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, LEASE OR CONVEYANCE 

Section 8.1 Consolidations and Mergers of Company and Sales, Leases and Conveyances Permitted Subject to Certain Conditions. 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any of the Securities, the Company may consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or
substantially all of its assets to, or merge with or into any other corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a State thereof; provided, that in any such case, either the Company shall be the
continuing corporation, or the successor corporation shall be a corporation and such successor corporation shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), any interest on, and any Additional Amounts
payable pursuant to Section 10.4 with respect to, all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed or observed by the
Company by supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such successor corporation. 

  
 44 








 Section 8.2 Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation. 

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance and upon any such assumption by the successor corporation, such successor
corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part, and the predecessor corporation shall be relieved of any further obligation under this Indenture and
the Securities. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the
Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor corporation, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver
any Securities that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities that such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee
for that purpose. All the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such
Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance,
such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 

Section 8.3 Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel. 

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.3, may receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as
conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, and any such assumption and any such supplemental indenture, if any, complies with the provisions of this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided
relating to such transactions have been complied with. 
 ARTICLE 9 

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

Section 9.1 Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. 

Without the consent of any Holders of Securities, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from
time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

upon the Company; or 
 (c) to change or eliminate any restrictions on the payment of principal (or premium, if any) on Securities or to

(d) to change or eliminate any provision of this Indenture; provided, that any such change or elimination (i) shall become effective only
when there is no Security Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture that is entitled to the benefit of such provision or (ii) shall not apply to any Security Outstanding; or 

(e) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1; or 

(f) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more

 (g) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision
herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture that shall not adversely affect the interest of the Holders of Securities of any series in any material respect; or 

(h) to add to, delete from or revise the conditions, limitations and restrictions on the authorized amount, terms or purposes of issue,
authentication and delivery of Securities, as herein set forth; or

the Trust Indenture Act; provided, that such action shall not adversely affect the interest of the Holders of the Securities of any series in any material respect; or 

(k) to provide for the guarantee, or to secure, of all or any series of Securities. 

Section 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. 

With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such
supplemental indenture, by Act of said 

  
 46 








 
Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose
of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such
supplemental Indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby: 
 (a) change the Stated
Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable upon the redemption
thereof, or change the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.4 (except as contemplated by Section 8.1 and permitted by Section 9.1(a)), or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue
Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.2, or change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Security or any premium or the
interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or 

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

(c) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 5.13 or Section 10.8, except to increase any such percentage or to
provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, or 

(d) adversely affect the right to repayment, if any, of Securities of any series at the option of the Holders thereof. 

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture that has expressly been included solely
for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or that modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture
of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders of Securities under this Section to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

Section 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 

In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby
of the trust created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be given, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in

relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Section 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

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

Section 9.5 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. 

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

 Section 9.6 Effect on Senior Indebtedness.

impair the subordination of the Securities of any series to Senior Indebtedness with respect to such series without the prior written consent of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 

Section 9.7 Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. 

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

ARTICLE 10 
 COVENANTS

 Section 10.1 Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest. 

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

Section 10.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Company 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, 

  
 48 








 
where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and
this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency
or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to
receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any
manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
 Unless otherwise set forth in a Board Resolution or indenture
supplemental hereto with respect to a series of Securities, the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series of Securities the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Offices as the Company’s office or agency for each of such purposes in such city. 
 Section 10.3 Money for Securities Payments
To Be Held in Trust. 
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will,
on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on, any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and
premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

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

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

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that 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; 

  
 49 








 (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the
Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and 

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

Except as otherwise provided in the form of Securities of any particular series pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and
premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general
creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment or to be mailed to Holders of
Securities, 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 the Company. In the absence of a written request from the Company to return unclaimed funds to the Company, the Trustee shall from time to time deliver all unclaimed funds to or as directed by applicable escheat authorities, as determined
by the Trustee in its sole discretion, in accordance with the customary practices and procedures of the Trustee. Any unclaimed funds held by the Trustee pursuant to this section shall be held uninvested and without any liability for interest. 

Section 10.4 Additional Amounts. 

If the Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of any series
Additional Amounts as provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or the net proceeds received on
the sale or exchange of any Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in the terms of such Security and this Section to the extent that, in such context, Additional
Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section and 

  
 50 








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

Section 10.5 Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Certain Defaults. 

(a) The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a written statement, which need not comply
with Section 1.2, signed by the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer or the principal accounting officer of the Company, stating that: 

(i) a review of the activities of the Company and its subsidiaries during such year and of performance under this Indenture has
been made under his supervision, and 
 (ii) to the best of his knowledge, based on such review, (a) the Company has
fulfilled all of its obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him and the nature and status thereof, and (b) no event
has occurred and is continuing that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default, or, if such event has occurred and is continuing, specifying each such event known to him and the nature and status thereof. 

(b) The Company will deliver to the Trustee within five days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event that after notice or
lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default pursuant to clause (d) of Section 5.1.

 ARTICLE 11 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 11.1 Applicability of Article. 

Securities of any series that are redeemable at the option of the Company before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with
the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) this Article. Securities of any series that are redeemable at the option of the Holder before their Stated Maturity
shall be redeemable in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) Sections 11.5 and 11.6 of this Article. 

Section 11.2 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee 

The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of
the Company of the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, the
principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and the relevant terms of the Securities to be redeemed. The election of a Holder to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a writing by a Holder sent to the Trustee and the Company
at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Holder in such notice (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee). Such notice shall notify the Trustee and the Company of such Redemption Date, the principal
amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and any relevant terms of the Securities of such series to be redeemed. 

Section 11.3 Selection by Trustee of Securities To Be Redeemed. 

If less than all the Securities of any series having the same terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem appropriate and that may provide for the
selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series or any integral multiple thereof that is also an authorized denomination) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a
denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company
and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) 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

 52 








 Section 11.4 Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.6, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption
Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed (which shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner herein provided to
the Holder of any Securities designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or portion thereof. Any notice
that is mailed to the Holder of any Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 

(a) the Redemption Date, 
 (b)
the Redemption Price (or the method of calculating the Redemption Price) and accrued interest, if any, 
 (c) if less than all Outstanding
Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 

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

(e) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed, and, if applicable,
that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 
 (f) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and 
 (g) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. 

A notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 1.6 need not identify particular Securities to be redeemed. 

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s
request and provision of such request at least 15 days prior to the notice being sent by the Trustee, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

 Section 11.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. 

On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own
Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on and any Additional
Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof that are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.6
Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
 Notice of redemption having been given by the Holder to the Company and Trustee pursuant to
Section 11.2 or to the Holder by the Company or the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.4, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such
date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall
be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (and any Additional Amounts) to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption
Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7. 

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 prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 11.7 Securities
Redeemed in Part. 
 Any Security that is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any office or agency of the Company
maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 10.2 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, containing
identical terms and provisions, 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. 

ARTICLE 12 
 SINKING
FUNDS 
 Section 12.1 Applicability of Article. 

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of such series or as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such series issued pursuant to this Indenture. 

  
 54 








 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 series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series,
the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2. 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 12.2 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of a series to be made pursuant
to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series, (1) deliver Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any of such Securities previously called for redemption) theretofore purchased or receive credit for
Securities (not previously so credited) theretofore purchased by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to Section 3.9, and (2) apply as a credit Securities of such series that have been redeemed either at the
election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities; provided, that such Securities have not been
previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund
payment shall be reduced accordingly. If, as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities of any series in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 12.2, the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed in order to
exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such series for redemption, except upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the
next succeeding sinking fund payment; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the Company from time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being held by the Trustee or
such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company. 

Section 12.3 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion
thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.2, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also
deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so credited and not theretofore delivered. If such Officers’ Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company


  
 55 








 
shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such
sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice having been duly
given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7. 
 ARTICLE 13

 SUBORDINATION 

Section 13.1 Agreement to Subordinate. 

The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder and under any indenture supplemental hereto or pursuant to a
Board Resolution and Officer’s Certificate (“Additional Provisions”) by such Holder’s acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article 13; and each
Holder of a Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. 

The payment by the Company of the principal of, any premium and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to all Securities of each
series issued hereunder and under any Additional Provisions shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of
this Indenture or thereafter incurred. 
 No provision of this Article 13 shall prevent the occurrence of any default or Event of Default
hereunder. 
 Section 13.2 Default on Senior Indebtedness. 

In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the payment of principal, premium, interest or any other amount due
on any Senior Indebtedness, or in the event that the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness has been accelerated because of a default, then, in either case, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal (including redemption and
sinking fund payments) of, any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities. 
 In the event that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment shall be received by the Trustee when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraph of this Section 13.2, such payment shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or
delivered to, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may
appear, but only to the extent that the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or their representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Trustee in writing within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on such Senior
Indebtedness and only the amounts specified in such notice to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

 Section 13.3 Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. 

Upon any payment by the Company or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to
creditors upon any dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due upon all Senior Indebtedness shall first be
paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money in accordance with its terms, before any payment is made by the Company on account of the principal of, premium or interest on, or Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities; and upon
any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization, or in any such bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
property or securities, to which the Holders or the Trustee would be entitled to receive from the Company, except for the provisions of this Article 13, shall be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee,
agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the
respective amounts of such Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated by the Company) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior
Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money’s worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of the Securities or to the Trustee. 
 In
the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, prohibited by the foregoing shall be received by the Trustee before all such
Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear,
as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all such Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 
 For purposes of this Article 13, the
words “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or
readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article 13 with respect to the Securities of the relevant series to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness that may at the time be outstanding, provided that
(i) such Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of such holders,
altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance, transfer or lease of its property as
an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another Person upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article 13 of this 

  
 57 








 
Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 13.3 if such other Person shall, as a part of such consolidation,
merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article 13 of this Indenture. Nothing in Section 13.2 or in this Section 13.3 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.7
of this Indenture. 
 Section 13.4 Subrogation. 

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of
the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with
respect to, the Securities shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders or the Trustee would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Article 13, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article 13 to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between
the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article
13 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness on the other hand. 

Nothing contained in this Article 13 or elsewhere in this Indenture, any Additional Provisions or in the Securities of any series is intended
to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities
the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the
Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by
applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article 13 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company, as the case may be, received upon the exercise of
any such remedy. 
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 13, the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of Article 6 of this Indenture, and the Holders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings
are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities of any series, for the purposes of
ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed
thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 13. 

  
 58 








 Section 13.5 Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. 

Each Holder of Securities by such Holder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take
such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article 13 and appoints the Trustee such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

Section 13.6 Notice by the Company. 

The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the
making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities of any series pursuant to the provisions of this Article 13. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 13 or any other provision of this Indenture or any
Additional Provisions, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities of any series pursuant to the provisions
of this Article 13, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt of any such
written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article 6 of this Indenture, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in
this Section 13.6 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on, or any
Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purposes for which they were
received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. 

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article 6 of this Indenture, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a
written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such holder), to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such
holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to
this Article 13, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in
such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 13, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of
such Person to receive such payment. 
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 13, the
Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding-up or similar case or
proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the
Holders of the Securities of any series, for the purpose of ascertaining the 

  
 59 








 
Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or
amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 13. 
 Section 13.7 Rights of the
Trustee; Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
 The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this
Article 13 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture or any Additional Provisions shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as
such holder. 
 With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its
covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article 13, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture or any Additional Provisions against the
Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Article 6 of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall
pay over or deliver to Holders of the Securities, the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 13 or otherwise. 

Nothing in this Article 13 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.7. 

Section 13.8 Subordination May Not Be Impaired. 

No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way
be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture,
regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with. 
 Without in any way limiting the
generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of Securities, without incurring responsibility to such Holders and
without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article 13 or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner,
place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such
Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of
such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.
