        (u)          the price or prices at which the Notes of the Series shall be issued;

         

          

        (v)          any provisions for remarketing;

         

        

        
          13

          
            


        

        (w)          the terms applicable to any Notes issued at a discount from their stated principal amount;

         

          

        (x)          if applicable, that the Notes of the Series in whole or in part may be defeasible pursuant to Sections 8.02 or 8.03
            or both;

         

          

        (y)          the CUSIP, ISIN or other identification number, if any; and

         

          

        (z)          any other terms of the Notes of the Series (which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture,
            except as permitted by Section 9.01(11)).

         

          

        All Notes of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board
          Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate referred to above, and the authorized principal amount of any Series may not be increased to provide for issuances of additional Notes of such Series, unless otherwise provided in such
          Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate.

         

        

        The Notes of each Series shall be in substantially such form as shall be established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto, or Officers’ Certificate pursuant to
          authority granted under a Board Resolution, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of
          identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or Depositary therefor or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing such Notes, as
          evidenced by their execution thereof.

         

        

        If any of the terms of the Series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an
          Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the Series.

         

        Section 2.03         Execution
            and Authentication.

         

          

        Two Officers shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual, facsimile or electronic signature.

         

        

        If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated or at the date of the Note, the Note shall nevertheless be valid so long as such
          individual was an Officer at the time of execution of the Note.

         

        

        A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual, facsimile or electronic signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee. The signature of the Trustee on
          a Note shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

         

        

        
          14

          
            


        

        The Trustee or any such authenticating agent shall at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Notes for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution, supplemental
          indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee or any such authenticating agent of a Company Order. Such Company Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company
          or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed electronically or in writing. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication unless otherwise provided by a Board Resolution, a supplemental
          indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate.

         

        

        The aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any Series outstanding at any time shall not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series set forth in the Board Resolution,
          supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02, except as provided in Section 2.08.

         

        

        Prior to the issuance of the Notes of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.02) shall be fully protected in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental
          indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate establishing the form of the Notes of that Series or of Notes within that Series and the terms of the Notes of that Series or of Notes within that Series, (b) an Officers’ Certificate complying with
          Section 12.04, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 12.04.

         

        

        Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.02 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Notes of a Series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the
          Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.02 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to the preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication of each Note of such Series if such documents
          are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Note of such Series to be issued.

         

        

        The Trustee may (at the expense of the Company) appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an
          instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this
          Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent.

         

        

        No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form
          provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual, facsimile or electronic signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly
          authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

         

        

        This is one of the Notes referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

         

        

        	

              	
                The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,

              
	

              	
                as Trustee

              
	
                Date:

              	

              	

              	

              
	

              	
                By:

              	
                Authorized Signatory

              


         

        Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

         

        

        
          15

          
            


        

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Note to the
          Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.12 hereof together with a written statement stating that such Note has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been
          authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

         

        Section 2.04        Registrar
            and Paying Agent.

         

          

        The Company shall maintain, with respect to each Series of Notes, an office or agency where Notes of such Series may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes of such Series may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. The
          Registrar shall keep a register (the “Note Register”) of each Series of Registered Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional
          paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the
          Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar of Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Restricted
          Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

         

        

        The Company hereby appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes of each Series unless another
          Depositary is appointed prior to the time the Notes of that Series are first issued.

         

        

        The Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar and Paying Agent for each Series unless another Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time the
          Notes of that Series are first issued. The Company or any of its domestically organized Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

         

        

        The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee under this Indenture including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be
          enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each Agent acting hereunder.

         

        

        The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall
          implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent.

         

        

        The Company may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent for any Series of Notes upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal
          shall become effective until (1) acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or
          (2) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (1) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice;
          provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.

        Section 2.05        Paying
            Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

         

          

        Prior to each due date of the principal (premium, if any) and interest on any Series of Notes, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary is acting as
          Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest when so becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the
          Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Notes, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
          Series of Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it relating to the Notes of such Series to
          the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall have no further liability
          for such funds. If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Notes all funds held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any Event of Default
          under Sections 6.01(f) and (g) hereof relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

         

        Section 2.06        Holder
            Lists.

         

        

        The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of each Series of Notes and shall
          otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may
          request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes of each Series and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a).

         

        Section 2.07        Registration; Registration of
            Transfer and Exchange.

         

          

        The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee the Note Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide
          for the registration of Notes of a Series and of transfers of Notes of such Series. The Note Register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonably prompt period of time.

         

        

        Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note of a Series to the Registrar or any co-registrar for such Series, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this
          Section 2.07, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Series, of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate
          principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. The Company shall not charge a service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company or the Registrar may require payment of a sum
          sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the transfer or exchange of the Notes from the Holder requesting such transfer or exchange (other than any exchange of a temporary Note
          for a permanent Note not involving any change in ownership or any exchange pursuant to Sections 2.12, 3.06 or 9.05 hereof, not involving any transfer).

         

        

        
          17

          
            


        

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

         

        

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

         

        

        Every Note of a Series presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
          the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing.

         

        

        The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes of any Series during a period beginning 15 Business Days before any selection of Notes of that
          Series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Notes of any Series or portions thereof so selected for redemption, in
          whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Notes of that Series being redeemed in part.

         

        Section 2.08        Replacement
            Notes.

         

          

        If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue
          and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. If required by the Trustee or the Company,
          the Holder of such Note shall provide indemnity that is sufficient, in the judgment of the Trustee or the Company, to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer in connection
          with such replacement. If required by the Company, such Holder shall reimburse the Company for its reasonable expenses in connection with such replacement.

          

        

        In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay, or authorize
          the payment of (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), such Note.

         

        

        
          18

          
            


        

        Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.08, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
          thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee) connected therewith.

         

        

        Every replacement Note of any Series issued in accordance with this Section 2.08 shall be the valid obligation of the Company, evidencing the same debt as the destroyed, lost or stolen Note, and
          shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes of that Series duly issued hereunder.

         

        

        The provisions of this Section 2.08 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 Note.

         

        
          
            Section 2.09        Outstanding
                Notes.

             

            

          

        

        The Notes outstanding at any time shall be all the Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee under this Indenture, except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
          those subject to reductions in beneficial interests effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.09 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.10 hereof, a Note shall not cease
          to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, it shall cease to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced
          Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

         

        

        If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it shall cease to be outstanding and interest on it shall cease to accrue.

         

        

        If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or a maturity date of Notes of a Series, funds sufficient to pay Notes
          payable on that date, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders of Notes such Series on that date pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes of such Series (or portions
          thereof) shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest.

         

        

        Section 2.10         Treasury
            Notes.

         

        

        In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes of a Series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes of such Series owned by the Company, or by any
          Affiliate of the Company, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes of such Series that
          a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

         

        Section 2.11         Temporary
            Notes.

         

        

        Until certificates representing Notes of a Series are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof, the Trustee shall
          authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes in certificated form but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to
          the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes or definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes of the same Series, as applicable. After preparation of definitive Notes, the
          temporary Note will be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes.

         

        

        
          19

          
            


        

        Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture as definitive Notes of the same Series.

         

        Section 2.12        Cancellation.

         

        

        The Company at any time may deliver Notes of any Series to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration
          of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall dispose of cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention
          requirement of the Exchange Act or other applicable laws) unless by written order, signed by an Officer of the Company, the Company directs them to be returned to it.

         

        

        Certification of the disposal of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Company from time to time upon request. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or
          that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

         

        Section 2.13        Payment
            of Interest; Defaulted Interest.

         

        

        Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any Series of Notes, interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
          interest payment date shall be paid to the person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

         

        

        If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes of any Series which is payable (“Defaulted Interest”), it shall pay the Defaulted Interest
          in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the Defaulted Interest, to the Persons who are Holders of such Series on a subsequent Special Record Date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes of such Series. The
          Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note of such Series and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such Special Record Date and
          payment date, provided that no such Special Record Date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such Defaulted Interest. At least 15 days before the Special Record Date, the
          Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of the Notes of such Series a notice that states the Special Record Date, the related
          payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. Unless otherwise provided in the designation of Notes of a Series, the defaulted interest rate shall be the rate of interest borne by such Series at the time of such default.

        Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.13 and Section 2.07 hereof, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any
          other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

            Global Notes.

         

        

        (a)          Terms of Notes. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate shall
            establish whether the Notes of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Registered Global Notes and the Depositary or Depositaries for such Registered Global Note or Notes.

         

          

        (b)          Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.07 and in
            addition thereto, any Registered Global Note shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.07 for Notes registered in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Note or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Company
            that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Registered Global Note or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to appoint a
            successor Depositary within 90 days of such event or (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Registered Global Note shall be so exchangeable. Any Registered Global Note that is
            exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Registered Global Note with
            like tenor and terms.

         

          

        Except as provided in this Section 2.14(b), a Registered Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Registered Global Note to a nominee of such
          Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.

         

        

        (c)          Legend. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.02 for the Notes evidenced thereby, each
            Registered Global Note authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

         

          

        This Note is a Registered Global Note within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of a Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. This Note is
          exchangeable for Notes registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the
          Depositary, 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 a successor Depositary.”

         

        

        (d)          Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to
            give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.

        (e)         Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, except as otherwise specified as
            contemplated by Section 2.02 for the Notes of any Series, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Registered Global Note shall be made to the Holder thereof.

         

          

        (f)          Consents, Declaration and Directions. The Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a Person as the
            Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Notes of such Series represented by a Registered Global Note as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depositary with respect to such Registered Global Note, for purposes of obtaining
            any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture.

         

        Section 2.15        CUSIP
            or ISIN Numbers.

         

        

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

         

        

        Section 2.16        Record
            Date.

         

        The record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of Notes of any one or more Series entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent or permitted under this
          Indenture shall be determined as provided for in TIA §316(c).

         

        Section 2.17        Persons
            Deemed Owners.

         

        

        Prior to due presentment of a Note of any Series 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 Note is
          registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Sections 2.06 and 2.12 hereof) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither
          the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         

        

        None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the 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 Note in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

            of Interest.

         

        

        Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.02 for Notes of any Series, interest on the Notes of each Series will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day
          months.

        Section 3.01         Notices
            to Trustee.

         

        

        The Company may, with respect to any Series of Notes, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Notes or may covenant to redeem and pay the Series of Notes or any part thereof prior to
          the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for in such Notes. Such redemption may be conditional upon the occurrence of events occurring after the delivery of a notice of redemption. If a Series of Notes is redeemable
          and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Notes pursuant to the terms of such Notes, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of
          Series of Notes to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice at least 30 calendar days before the redemption date (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Trustee).

         

        

        Section 3.02         Selection
            of Notes to Be Redeemed.

         

        

        Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, if less than all of the Notes of a Series are to be redeemed, the
          Trustee shall select the Notes of the Series to be redeemed not more than 60 days before the redemption date therefor in any manner that the Trustee in its sole discretion deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from
          Notes of the Series outstanding not previously called for redemption. Notes of the Series and portions of them it selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 or, with respect to Notes of any Series issuable in other
          denominations pursuant to Section 2.02(i), the minimum principal denomination for each Series and integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes of
          that Series called for redemption.

         

        Section 3.03         Notice of
            Redemption.

         

          

        Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate, at least 15 days but not more than 60 days prior to a
          Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address appearing in the Note Register and if any Bearer Notes
          are outstanding, publish on one occasion a notice in an Authorized Newspaper, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance pursuant to Article 8
          hereof or a satisfaction and discharge pursuant to Article 11 hereof.

         

        

        The notice shall identify the Notes of the Series to be redeemed and shall state:

         

        

         (a)          the Redemption Date;

         

          

        (b)          the appropriate method for calculation of the redemption price, but need not include the Redemption Price itself;
            the actual Redemption Price shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Redemption Date.

         

        

        
          23

          
            


        

        (c)          if less than all outstanding Notes of the Series are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Notes to
            be redeemed and the portion of the principal amount of any Note to be redeemed in part and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, if applicable, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall
            be issued upon cancellation of the original Note;

         

          

        (d)          the name and address of the Paying Agent;

         

          

        (e)          that Notes of the Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption
            Price;

         

          

        (f)          that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes of the Series called for
            redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;

         

          

        (g)          any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the Notes of a Series being
            redeemed;

         

          

        (h)          if the redemption is to be conditional upon the satisfaction of certain events, a description of such events; and

         

          

        (i)          the CUSIP, ISIN or other identification number, if any.

         

          

        At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter period allowed by the Trustee), prior to the Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice
          (in the name and at the expense of the Company) and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03.

         

        Section 3.04         Effect of
            Notice of Redemption.

        

        

        Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes of a Series called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the
          Redemption Price, unless the conditions specified in such notice have not been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion). Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price therefor plus accrued
          interest to but excluding the Redemption Date.

         

        

        Section 3.05         Deposit of
            Redemption Price.

         

          

        On or prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the Business Day prior to any Redemption Date for the Notes of a Series, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the
          Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.05) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be
          redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days after the Redemption Date, return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in
          excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed. If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the Redemption Date,
          interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for purchase or redemption in accordance with Section 2.07 hereof, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Regular Record
          Date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Note called
          for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid,
          and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

        Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to
          Section 4.02 (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 such Holder’s attorney duly
          authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Note at the expense of the Company, a new Note or Notes of the same Series, of any authorized
          denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

            Affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes of a Series may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes of a Series
            and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall 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.

         

          

        (b)          The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes of a Series
            may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the

            the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

         

          

        (2)          the Surviving Entity expressly assumes, pursuant to a supplemental indenture all Obligations of
            the Company under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee;

        (h)          any other Event of Default provided with respect to Notes of that Series, which is specified in a Board Resolution,

        Section 6.02        Acceleration.

         

          

        If any Event of Default (other than those of the type described in Section 6.01(f) or (g)) occurs and is continuing, then, and in each and every such case, except for any series of Notes the
          principal of which shall have already become due and payable, the Trustee may, and the Trustee upon the request of Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of each such affected Series shall, or the Holders of at

          Notes of such Series, to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a notice of acceleration (the “Acceleration
            Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable.

         

        

        In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, of all of the outstanding Notes of each such
          affected Series shall become due and payable immediately without any further action or notice on the part of the Trustee or the Holders. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes of any Series except as provided in this Indenture.

        Section 6.03        Other
            Remedies.

         

        

        If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to Notes of any Series, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest
          on the Notes of such Series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes of such Series or this Indenture.

         

        

        The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes of any affected Series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or
          any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies shall be cumulative to the extent permitted by
          law.

         

        
          
            Section 6.04        Waiver of

            affected thereby, voting as a single class, by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes of such affected Series (i) waive any existing Default or Event of Default, and its consequences, except a continuing Default
            or Event of Default (A) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes of such Series and (B) in respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
            the Holder of each Note of such Series affected by such modification or amendment and (ii) rescind any acceleration and its consequences with respect to the Notes of such Series.

         

          

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

         

        Section 6.05        Control
            by Majority.

         

          

        Subject to Sections 7.01, 7.02(f) (including the Trustee’s receipt of the security or indemnification described therein) and 7.07 hereof, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be
          continuing, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any Series then outstanding 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 Notes of such Series.

        Section 6.06        Limitation
            on Suits.

         

          

        No Holder of any Note of any Series shall have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy hereunder,
          unless:

         

        

        (a)          such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default or the Trustee
            receives the notice from the Company with respect to the Notes of that Series;

         

          

        (b)          Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of that Series then outstanding have made
            written request and offered indemnity to the Trustee reasonably satisfactory to it to institute such proceeding as Trustee; and

         

          

        (c)          the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of
            that Series then outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days.

         

          

        The preceding limitations shall not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for enforcement of payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, a Note of any Series on or after the
          respective due dates for such payments set forth in such Note.

         

        Section 6.07        Rights
            of Holders to Receive Payment.

         

          

        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture (including Section 6.06), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes held by such
          Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

         

        

        Section 6.08        Collection
            Suit by Trustee.

         

          

        If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the
          Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest) and 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.

        Section 6.09         Trustee
            May File Proofs of Claim.

         

          

        The Trustee shall be authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the
          reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of Notes of any Series allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes of any
          Series), its assets or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
          authorized by each Holder of Notes of any Series 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 each such affected Series, 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 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such
          compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the
          same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, moneys, securities and any other properties that the Holders of Notes of any Series may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or
          under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
          adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

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

         

        

        First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities
          incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

         

        

        Second: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes of any Series for principal, premium, if any, and interest ratably, without preference or
          priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes of such Series for principal, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

         

        

        Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

         

        

        The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.

         

        Section 6.11         Undertaking
            for Costs.

         

          

        In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may
          require the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in
          such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 shall not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof,
          or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any Series.

        TRUSTEE

         

        Section 7.01        Duties
            of Trustee.

         

        

        (a)          If 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 its exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs.

         

          

        (b)          Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

         

          

        (1)         the duties of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture
            and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

         

          

        (2)         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. However, in the case of certificates or opinions specifically
            required by any provision herein to be furnished to it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions 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).

         

          

        (c)          The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or
            its own willful misconduct, except that:

         

          

        (1)          this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section;

         

          

        (2)          the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
            Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

         

          

        (3)          the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take with
            respect to Notes of any Series in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.

         

          

        (d)          Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the
            Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01.

         

          

        (e)          No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability.
            The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any
            loss, liability or expense.

        (f)          The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee
            may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

         

        Section 7.02        Rights of Trustee.

         

          

        Subject to TIA §315:

         

        

        (a)          The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
            presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if
            the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or 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.

         

          

        (b)          Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel
            or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 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 from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

         

          

        (c)          The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be
            authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

         

          

        (d)          Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company
            shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company.

         

          

        (e)          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 which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the Company
            or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and such notice references the specific Default or Event of Default, the Notes and this Indenture.

         

          

        (f)          The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its power and duties
            hereunder.

         

          

        (g)          The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Company’s covenants herein.

         

        

        
          34

          
            


        

        (h)          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.

         

          

        (i)          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 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 which might be
            incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

         

          

        (j)          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 of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

         

          

        (k)         the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation,
            its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

         

          

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

         

          

        (m)        None of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to
            incur any liability, financial or otherwise, 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 indemnity
            satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

         

        

        Section 7.03         Individual
            Rights of Trustee.

         

          

        The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would
          have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with
          like rights and duties. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof.

         

        

        

        
          35

          
            


        

        Section 7.04         Trustee’s Disclaimer.

         

          

        The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the
          proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the
          Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

         

        

        Section 7.05         Notice
            of Defaults.

         

          

        If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes of any Series and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of
          the Notes of such Series and, if any Bearer Notes are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default
          in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the
          interests of the Holders of Notes of that Series.

         

        Section 7.06        Reports
            by Trustee to Holders.

         

          

        Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date hereof, and for so long as any Notes of any Series remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of Notes
          of each Series and, if any Bearer Notes are outstanding, to the holder(s) of Bearer Notes who have provided written request therefor and their mailing address to the Trustee, a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA
          §313(a) (but if no event described in TIA §313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA §313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all
          reports as required by TIA §313(c).

         

        

        A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of any Series shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes of that Series are
          listed in accordance with TIA §313(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes of any Series are listed on any stock exchange and any delisting thereof.

         

        

        Section 7.07        Compensation
            and Indemnity.

         

          

        The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any
          law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services.
          Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee, its directors, officers, employees or agents or any predecessor Trustee against any
          and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities or expenses, including incidental and out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (for purposes of this Article, “losses”) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this
          Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent
          such losses have been determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice and for which it may seek
          indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 7.07. The Company shall defend the claim, and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate
          counsel if the Trustee has been reasonably advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Company and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it
          is advisable for the Trustee to engage separate counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
          withheld. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence.

         

        
          36

          
            


        

        The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of the Trustee and payment in full of the Notes.

         

        

        To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes of any Series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that
          held in trust to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes of that Series. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

         

        

        When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the
          fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

        
          

          

          

        Section 7.08        Replacement of Trustee.

         

          

        A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

         

        

        The Trustee may resign with respect to the Notes of one or more Series in writing at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so
          notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to that Series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may
          remove the Trustee with respect to Notes of one or more Series if:

         

        

        (a)          the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

         

        
          37

          
            


        

        (b)          the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under
            any Bankruptcy Law;

         

          

        (c)          a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

         

          

        (d)          the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

         

          

        If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee with respect to one or more Series for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the
          retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

         

        

        Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable Series may appoint a successor Trustee to
          replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

         

        If a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of any one or more Series does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company,
          or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of the applicable Series may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         

        

        If the Trustee with respect to the Notes of any one or more Series, after written request by any Holder of such Series who has been a Holder of such Series for at least six months, fails to
          comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

         

        

        A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company and enter into a supplemental indenture with the retiring Trustee and the
          Company in which it assumes the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and
          duties of the Trustee with respect to each Series of Notes for which it is acting as Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of each such Series and, if any Bearer Notes are
          outstanding, publish such notice on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper. Subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof, the retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided, however, that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder shall have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the
          Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

         

        

        In the case of an appointment hereunder of a separate or successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of any one or more Series, the Company, any retiring Trustee and each successor or separate
          Trustee with respect to the Notes of such Series shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture hereto (1) which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
          of any retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes of such Series have been assumed by a successor Trustee and in the case where any retiring Trustee is retiring only with respect to some of the Notes of such Series that the rights, powers, trusts
          and duties of any retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes as to which any such retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in such retiring Trustee and (2) that 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 Trustee co-trustees of the same
          trust and that each such separate, retiring or successor Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any such other Trustee.

         

        

        
          38

          
            


        

        Section 7.09        Successor
            Trustee by Merger, etc.

         

          

        If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the successor
          corporation or banking association without any further act shall, if such successor corporation or banking association is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee.

         

        

        In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee with respect to the Notes of any one or more Series shall succeed to the trusts created by
          this Indenture any of the Notes of the applicable Series shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to such Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes of the
          applicable Series so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes of such Series shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the
          name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes of such Series or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

         

        

        

        Section 7.10        Eligibility; Disqualification.

         

        

        There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such
          laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million (or a wholly-owned subsidiary of a bank or trust
          company, or of a bank holding company, the principal subsidiary of which is a bank or trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million) as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

         

        

        This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA §310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA §310(b).

         

        Section 7.11         Preferential
            Collection of Claims Against Company.

         

        

        The Trustee is subject to TIA §311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA §311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent
          indicated therein.

        ARTICLE 8.

         

        

        LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

         

        

        Section 8.01        Option to Effect Legal
            Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

         

          

        The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Sections 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes of any Series upon compliance with the conditions set forth
          in this Article 8. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate.

         

        

        Section 8.02         Legal
            Defeasance and Discharge of Notes of any Series.

         

        

        Unless this Section 8.02 is otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.02(x) to be inapplicable to Notes of any Series, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02,
          the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from its Obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes of any Series on the date the conditions set forth below are
          satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the
          outstanding Notes of the applicable Series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other
          Obligations under the Notes of such Series and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive
          until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes of such Series to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of
          the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes of such Series when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s Obligations with respect to Notes of such series under Article 2 and Sections 4.01 and 4.02, (c) the rights, powers, trusts,
          duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s Obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article 8. If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.02 with respect to Notes of any one
          or more Series, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes of such Series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may
          exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03.

         

        Section 8.03        Covenant Defeasance.

         

        

        Unless this Section 8.03 is otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.22(y) to be inapplicable to Notes of any Series, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to
          this Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its Obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04 and 5.01 hereof as well as any additional
          covenants contained in a supplemental indenture hereto for a particular Series of Notes or a Board Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(w), with respect to the outstanding Notes of any Series on and after the
          date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”) and the Notes of such Series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the
          purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being
          understood that such Notes of such Series shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of such Series, the Company may omit to comply with and
          shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such
          covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes
          of such Series shall be unaffected thereby.

        Section 8.04        Conditions
            to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

         

          

        The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 to the outstanding Notes of any one or more Series.

         

        

        The Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance may be exercised only if:

         

        

        (a)        the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee, in trust (the “defeasance trust”), for the benefit of the Holders of such Series of Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Securities, in
            amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants (a copy of which shall be provided to the Trustee), to pay the principal (including mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments, if
            any), premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes of such Series on the Stated Maturity or on the next Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company shall specify whether the Notes of such Series are being defeased to maturity
            or to such particular Redemption Date;

         

          

        (b)          in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (i)
            the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) subsequent to the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
            based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to
            federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

         

          

        (c)          in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably
            acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income
            tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

         

        

        
          41

          
            


        

        (d)         no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes of such Series on the date
            of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing);

         

          

        (e)          such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
            under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound;

         

          

        (f)          the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the
            Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of such Series of Notes over other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding such other creditors; and

         

          

        (g)          the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
            stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

         

        Section 8.05         Deposited Cash and Government
            Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

         

        Subject to Section 8.06, all cash and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of
          this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes of any Series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
          provisions of such Notes of such Series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due
          thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

         

         

        The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section
          8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

         

         

        Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any cash or non-callable Government
          Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the
          certification delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

        Section 8.06         Repayment
            to Company.

         

          

        The Trustee shall promptly, and in any event, no later than five (5) Business Days, pay to the Company after request therefor, any excess money held with respect to the Notes of any Series at
          such time in excess of amounts required to pay any of the Company’s Obligations then owing with respect to the Notes of such Series.

          

        

        Any cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest
          on any Note of any Series and remaining unclaimed for one year after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from
          such trust; and the Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash and securities, 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 notice that such cash and securities remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification
          or publication, any unclaimed balance of such cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

         

        

        

        Section 8.07         Reinstatement.

         

          

        If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Sections 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment
          of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had
          occurred pursuant to Sections 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such cash and securities in accordance with Sections 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company
          makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note of such Series following the reinstatement of its Obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive such payment from the cash and
          securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

         

        

        Section 8.08         Effect
            of Subordination Provisions.

         

          

        Unless otherwise expressly established pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to the Subordinated Securities of any Series, the provisions of Article 10 hereof, insofar as they pertain to the
          Subordinated Notes of such series, and the Subordination Provisions established pursuant to Section 2.02(h) with respect to such Series, are hereby expressly made subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge and defeasance and
          covenant defeasance set for this Article 8 and, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the effectiveness of such satisfaction and discharge and defeasance and covenant defeasance pursuant to this Article 8 with respect to the Notes
          of such Series, such Notes shall thereupon cease to be so subordinated and shall no longer be subject to the provisions of Article 10 or the Subordination Provisions established pursuant to Section 2.02(h) with respect to such series and, without
          limitation to the foregoing, all moneys, U.S. Government Obligations and other securities or property deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) in trust in connection with such satisfaction and discharge, defeasance or covenant
          defeasance, as the case may be, and all proceeds therefrom may be applied to pay the principal of, premium, if any, on, and mandatory sinking fund payments, if any with respect to the Notes of such Series as and when the same shall become due and
          payable notwithstanding the provisions of Article 10 or such Subordination Provisions.

        AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

         

        Section 9.01         Without Consent of Holders of
            Notes.

         

          

        Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes of one or more Series without the consent of any Holder to:

         

        

        (1)          to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect, error or inconsistency;

         

          

        (2)          to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

         

          

        (3)          to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of a
            merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or any other transaction that complies with this Indenture;

         

          

        (4)          to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes
            or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder;

         

          

        (5)          to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this
            Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

         

          

        (6)          to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or Subsidiary Guarantee with
            respect to the Notes of any one or more Series;

         

          

        (7)          to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of Notes of any
            Series as permitted by this Indenture;

         

          

        (8)          to add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or
            provisions as the Company shall consider to be for the protection of the Holders of Notes, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an
            Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth; provided, that in respect of any such additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision such supplemental
            indenture may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such an Event of Default or may limit
            the remedies available to the Trustee upon such an Event of Default or may limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such Series to waive such an Event of Default;

         

        

        
          44

          
            


        

        (9)          to evidence and provide the acceptance of the appointment of a successor trustee under this

        (10)       to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in favor of the trustee for the
            benefit of the Holders of Notes of one or more Series as additional security for the payment and performance of the Company’s Obligations under this Indenture in property or assets;

         

        (11)        to add to, change, or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one or
            more Series of Notes, provided that any such addition, change, or elimination (i) will neither (A) apply to any Note of any Series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor
            (B) modify the rights of the Holder of any such Note with respect to such provision or (ii) will become effective only when there is no such Note outstanding;

         

        (12)        to comply with the rules of any applicable Depositary;

         

        (13)        to release any Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to the terms of this Indenture

        (14)        to comply with Section 5.01.

         

        Section 9.02         With
            Consent of Holders of Notes.

         

          

        Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes of any Series with the consent of the Holders of at least a
          majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each Series affected thereby then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes of any such
          Series), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes of any Series may be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in
          aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each such Series then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes of any such Series).Without the
          consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes of any Series held by a non-consenting Holder):

         

        

        (1)          reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or
            waiver;

         

          

        (2)          reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note;

         

        

        
          45

          
            


        

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

         

          

        (4)          waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium on
            the Notes of any Series (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes of such Series by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such Series and a waiver of the Payment Default that
            resulted from such acceleration);

         

          

        (5)          make any Note of any Series payable in money other than that stated in the Notes of such Series;

         

          

        (6)          in the case of Subordinated Notes of any Series, modify any of the Subordination Provisions or
            the definition of “Senior Debt” relating to such Series in a manner adverse to the holders of such Subordinated Notes;

         

          

        (7)          make any change in the provisions (including applicable definitions) of the Indenture relating
            to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes of any Series to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes of such Series;

         

          

        (8)          waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note of any Series; or

         

          

        (9)          make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

         

          

        The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any supplemental indenture. If a record date is fixed, the
          Holders of any Series of Notes on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 120 days after such record date, any such consent previously
          given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

         

        

        It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes of any Series under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it
          shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby and, if any Bearer Notes affected
          thereby are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail or publish such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
          any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

         

        

        
          46

          
            


        

        After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holder of each Note affected thereby to such Holder’s address appearing in the
          Note Register and, if any Bearer Notes affected thereby are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any
          defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

         

        Section 9.03        Compliance
            with Trust Indenture Act.

         

          

        Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes of one or more Series shall be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

         

        Section 9.04        Revocation
            and Effect of Consents.

            

          

        Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion thereof
          that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note or portion thereof if the Trustee receives
          written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter shall bind every Holder.

         

        Section 9.05        Notation
            on or Exchange of Notes.

         

          

        The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note of any Series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes of that Series may
          issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes of that Series that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver.

         

        

        Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

         

        Section 9.06        Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

         

          

        The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or
          immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until its Board of Directors (or committee serving a similar function) approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall
          be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by
          this Indenture and that such amended or supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions and that such amended or supplemental
          indenture complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03).

        The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Subordinated Notes of any Series by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the
          payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on, and mandatory sinking fund payments, if any, in respect of each and all of the Subordinated Notes of such series shall be expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the
          manner provided in the Subordination Provisions established with respect to the Subordinated Notes of such Series pursuant to Section 2.02(h) hereof, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt with respect to such Series.

        This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect, as to all Notes of any Series issued hereunder, when:

         

        

        (a)          either:

         

          

        (1)          all Notes of any Series that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed notes
            that have been replaced or paid and notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

         

          

        (2)          all Notes of any Series that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become
            due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable or redeemable within one year, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in
            trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration

        The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, pdf, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic
          methods, provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to give such instructions or directions and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency
          certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in
          its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s
          reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to
          submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

          under the Notes, this Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such Obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of
          the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver and release may not be effective to waive or release liabilities under the federal securities laws.
