 and thereafter at a Redemption Price
equal to     % of the principal amount, together in the case of any such redemption (whether through operation of the sinking fund or otherwise) with accrued interest to the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided
in the Indenture.] 
  
 [Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
may not, prior to    , redeem any Securities of this series as contemplated by [Clause (2) of] the preceding paragraph as a part of, or in anticipation of, any refunding operation by the application, directly or indirectly, of
moneys borrowed having an 
  

 22 








 interest cost to the Company (calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice) of less than
    % per annum.] 
  
 [The sinking fund
for this series provides for the redemption on          in each year beginning with the year          and ending with the year of [not less than] $
                    (“mandatory sinking fund”) and not more than
$                     ] aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series. [Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the
Company otherwise than through [mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [mandatory] sinking fund payments otherwise required to be made.] 
  
 [In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for
the unredeemed portion will be issued to the Holder upon the cancellation hereof, and in event of transfer or exchange a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor and for a like aggregate principal amount will be issued to the
Holder, in case of exchange, or the designated transferee or transferees, in case of transfer.] 
  
 Subject to the relevant provisions set forth in the Indenture, the Securities are subject to redemption, in whole but not in part, at the option of the
Guarantor in the event the Guarantor becomes obligated, in respect of any amounts to be paid under the Guarantee and as a result of changes in applicable tax law, to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge
imposed on any Holder, and the payments of such additional amounts cannot be avoided by any reasonable means. 
  
 [If the Security is not an Original Issue Discount Security,      If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this
series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.] 
  
 [If the Security is an Original Issue Discount Security,      If an Event of Default with respect
to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, an amount of principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Such amount shall be equal to
     insert formula for determining the amount. Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any overdue principal and overdue interest (in each case to the extent that
the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of this series shall terminate.] 
  

 23 








 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the
time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver
by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
  
 As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or
trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have
received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of this series a direction inconsistent with such request, and the Trustee shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates
expressed herein. 
  
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no
provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in
the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
  
 As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place
where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly 
  

 24 








 executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing and thereupon one or more new Securities of
this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
  
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any
integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a
different authorized denomination as requested by the Holder surrenders the same. 
  
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

  
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or the interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture
supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the
enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released. 
  
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman
of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any
of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
  
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior
to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
  
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the
Company and having the Guarantees endorsed thereon to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and
deliver such Securities; provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, (a) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in
an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount established for such series, pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such other procedures acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company
Order, (b) the maturity date or dates, original issue date or dates, currency or currencies or composite currencies, interest rate or rates and any other terms of the Securities of such series shall be determined by Company Order or pursuant to such
procedures and (c) if provided for in such procedures, 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 instructions shall be
promptly confirmed in writing. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, 
  

 29 








 (a) that the form of such Securities has been established in conformity with the
provisions of this Indenture; 
  
 (b) that the
terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
  
 (c) that such Securities, with the Guarantees endorsed thereon, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company
in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series offered in a
Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such Opinion of Counsel in connection only with the first authentication of Securities of such series and that the opinions described in clauses (b) and (c) above may state, respectively;

  
 (d) that, when the terms of such Securities
shall have been established pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order, all as contemplated by a Board Resolution or action taken pursuant thereto, such terms will have been
duly authorized by the Company and will have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
  
 (e) that such Securities, when (i) executed by the Company and having Guarantees endorsed thereon, (ii) completed, authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture, (iii) issued and delivered by the Company and (iv) paid for, all in accordance with any agreement of the Company relating to the offering, issuance and sale of such Securities, will have
been duly issued under this Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, entitled to the benefits provided by the Indenture, and enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to
enforcement, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. 
  
 With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the
Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability 
  

 30 








 thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel, Company Order and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 and
this Section, as applicable, delivered at or prior to the first authentication of Securities of such series unless and until such opinion or other documents have been superseded or revoked. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the third paragraph of
this Section 303, if any Securities of a series are to be offered in a Periodic Offering, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Opinion of Counsel, Company Order and other documents otherwise required pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 and this
Section at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the time of authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
  
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the
issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

  
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

  
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any
Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing if any Security shall have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309 together with a written statement (which need not comply with
Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 304. Temporary Securities. 
  
 (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
  

 31 








 If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that
series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary
Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series the Company shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
  
 (b) If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 301 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more
Global Notes, then the Company shall execute and the Trustees shall, in accordance with Section 303 and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Notes in temporary or permanent form that (i) shall
represent and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by one or more Global Notes, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the U.S. Depositary for such
Global Note or Notes or the nominee of such depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such depositary or pursuant to such depositary’s written instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

  
 “Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part
for Securities in definitive form, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary
or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.” 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section or Section 305, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, a Global Note representing all or a portion of the
Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the U.S. Depositary for such series to a nominee of such depositary or by a nominee of such depositary to such depositary or another nominee of such depositary or by such depositary
or any such nominee to a successor U.S. Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor depositary. 
  

 32 








 If at any time the U.S. Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as U.S. Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the U.S. Depositary for Securities of a series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or
other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor U.S. Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. 
  
 If a successor U.S. Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or
becomes aware of such condition, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver, registered Securities of such
series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note or Notes representing such series in exchange for such Global Note or Notes. 
  
 The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series issued in the form of one
or more Global Notes shall no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In such event, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series,
will authenticate and deliver, registered Securities of such series in definitive form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note or Notes representing such series in exchange for such Global Notes or
Notes. 
  
 If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 301
with respect to Securities of a series, the U.S. Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Global Note for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for registered Securities of such series in definitive form on such
terms as are acceptable to the Company and such depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without charge, 
  

(i) to each Person specified by the U.S. Depositary a new registered Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Note; and 
  
 (ii) to the U.S. Depositary a new Global Note in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the
principal amount of the surrendered Global Note and the aggregate principal amount of registered Securities delivered to Holders thereof. 
  

 33 








 Upon the exchange of a Global Note for Securities in definitive form, such Global Note shall be cancelled
by the Trustee. Debt Securities issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denomination as the U.S. Depositary for such Global Note, pursuant to instructions from its
direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. 
  
 Section 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and
Exchange. 
  
 The Company shall cause to be kept at the principal
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering
Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
  
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and of like tenor. 
  
 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series (except Global Notes) may be exchanged for other Securities of the
same series of like aggregate principal amount and of a like Stated Maturity and with the like terms and conditions, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
  
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt
and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed
or be accompanied by 
  

 34 








 a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the
Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
  
 No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with the execution and
delivery of the Securities or any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer. 
  
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that series selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or
(ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
  
 Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
  
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
  
 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the
Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the
same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
  
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
  
 Upon the
issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Trustee) connected therewith. 
  

 35 








 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen
Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
  
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
  
 Section 307.
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
  
 Unless
otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose
name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 
  
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company at its election in each case, as
provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
  
 (1) The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to
the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Company of such Special Record 
  

 36 








 Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special
Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective
Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 
  
 (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this
Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
  
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
  
 Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. 
  
 Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the
purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any
agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 Section 309. Cancellation. 
  
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if
surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder
which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for 
  

 37 








 cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all
Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All
cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order. 
  
 Section 310. Computation of Interest. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 Section 311. Judgments. 
  
 If for the purpose of
obtaining a judgment in any court with respect to any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any Security, it shall become necessary to convert into any other currency any amount in the currency due hereunder or under such Security, then such
conversion shall be made at the market Exchange Rate as in effect on the date the Company shall make payment to any person in satisfaction of such judgment. If pursuant to any such judgment, conversion shall be made on a date other than the date
payment is made and there shall occur a change between such Market Exchange Rate and the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the date of payment, the Company agrees to pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary to ensure that the
amount paid is equal to the amount in such other currency which, when converted at the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the date of payment or distribution, is the amount due hereunder or under such Security. Any amount due from the Company
under this Section 311 shall be due as a separate debt and is not to be affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sums due hereunder or in respect of any Security. In no event, however, shall the Company be required to pay
more in the currency or currency unit due hereunder or under such Security at the Market Exchange Rate as in effect when payment is made than the amount of currency stated to be due hereunder or under such Security so that in any event the
Company’s obligations hereunder or under such Security will be effectively maintained as obligations in such currency, and the Company shall be entitled to withhold (or be reimbursed for, as the case may be) any excess of the amount actually
realized upon any such conversion over the amount due and payable on the date of payment or distribution.

Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, which default (A) shall be caused by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Guarantor failing to make a principal or interest payment at final Stated Maturity or (B) shall have resulted in such
Specified Indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become 
  

 43 








 due and payable, without such default having been cured or acceleration having been rescinded or
annulled, as the case may be, within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice requiring the Company to cause such default to be cured or acceleration to be rescinded or annulled, as the case may be, and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”
hereunder, provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of Sections 601 and 602, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such default unless either (A) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in its principal Corporate
Trust Office shall have actual knowledge of such default or (B) the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof at its principal Corporate Trust Office from the Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such Specified Indebtedness or

the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding
against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State laws, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or 
  

 44

official of the Guarantor, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Guarantor, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in furtherance of any such action; or 
  
 (8) the Guarantee with respect to that series shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable
or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantor or the Guarantor shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under the Guarantee; or 
  
 (9) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series. 
  
 Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and
Annulment. 
  
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities
of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of
the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. 
  
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Securities of any series had been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
  
 (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
  
 (A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series,

  

 45 








 (B) the principal of (and premium, if, any on) any Securities of that series which have
become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, 
  
 (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Securities and 
  
 (D) all sums paid or advanced
by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
  
 and 
  
 (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that
series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
  
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, with respect to
Securities of a series all or part of which is represented by one or more Global Notes, the Trustee shall establish a record date for determining Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such declaration of acceleration,
or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be. The Holders on such record date,
or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that unless such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the day which is 90 days after such record
date, such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy
of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new declaration of acceleration, or rescission or annulment thereof, as the case may be, that is identical to a declaration of acceleration, or rescission or annulment thereof,
which has been cancelled pursuant to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 502.

 Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

  
 The Company covenants that if 
  
 (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any
Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
  
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof, or 
  
 (3) default is made in the deposit of any sinking fund
payment when and as due by the terms of a Security, 
  
 the Company will, upon
demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be
legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the
costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or
decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 
  
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
  

 47 








 Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee
(irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company or the Guarantor for the
payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
  
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 
  
 (ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
  

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder
to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. 
  
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  
 Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession
of Securities. 
  
 All rights of action and claims under this
Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment 
  

 48 








 shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
  
 Section 506. Application of Money Collected 
  
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in
case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 

 
 First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee
under Section 607; and 
  
 Second: To the payment
of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to
the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively. 
  
 Section 507. Limitation on Suits. 
  
 No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for
the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
  
 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that
series; 
  
 (2) the Holders of not less than 25%
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
  
 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee
reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
  
 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding;
and 
  
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such
written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day 
  

 49 








 period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series;

  
 it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall
have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other
of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 
  
 Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any
Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security
(or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no
such proceeding had been instituted. 
  
 Section
510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
  
 Except as otherwise
provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  

 50 








 Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
  
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the
Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
  
 Section 512. Control by Holders. 
  
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that 
  
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of
law or with this Indenture, 
  
 (2) the Trustee
may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
  
 (3) subject to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in
good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
  
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any such direction with respect to Securities of a series all or part of which is represented
by one or more Global Securities, the Trustee shall establish a record date for determining Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such direction, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the
Trustee receives such direction. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that unless such majority in principal amount shall have been obtained prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such direction shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no
further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new direction identical to a direction which has been cancelled pursuant to the preceding sentence, in
which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 512. 
  

 51 








 Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
  
 The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default 
  
 (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any)
or interest on any Security of such series, or 
  
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
  
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the
purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any past default hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to waive any default hereunder,
whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless such majority in principal amount shall have been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
  
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose
of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 514. Undertaking for Costs. 
  
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees 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 such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders,
holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security
on or after 
  

 52 








 the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date). 
  
 Section 515. Waiver of Stay or
Extension Laws. 
  
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) that it will not any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the
covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any
power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
  
 ARTICLE SIX 
  
 The Trustee 
  
 Section 601. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 
  
 (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, 
  
 (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
  
 (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting, as to the truth of
the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
  
 (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

 
 (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own wilful misconduct, except that 
  

 53 








 (1) this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this
Section; 
  
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable
for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
  
 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, given pursuant to Section 512, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and 
  

(4) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability
in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it. 
  
 (d) Whether or not therein
expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 
  
 Section 602. Notice of Defaults. 
  
 Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to
the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series or in the
payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or
Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character
specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term 
  

 54 








 “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default
with respect to Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 603. Certain Rights of Trustee. 
  
 Subject to
the provisions of Section 601: 
  
 (a) the
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other
evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
  
 (b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order or as
otherwise expressly provided herein and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
  
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written
advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 
  
 (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses
and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
  
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, 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 
  

 55 








 premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; and 
  
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, attorney, custodian or nominee
appointed with due care by it hereunder. 
  
 (h)
In the event that the Trustee is also acting as a Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, and/or Registrar hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article Six shall also be afforded to such Paying Agent,
Authenticating Agent, and/or Registrar. 
  
 Section 604. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 
  
 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
  
 Section 605. May Hold Securities. 
  
 The Trustee, any
Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with
the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
  
 Section 606. Money Held in Trust. 
  
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no
liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. 
  
 Section 607. Compensation and Reimbursement. 
  
 The Company agrees 
  
 (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder 
  

 56 








 (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a
trustee of an express trust); 
  
 (2) except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
  
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents for, and to hold them
harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder and in connection with the other
transaction documents, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder and thereunder. 
  
 As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this
Section the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, on particular
Securities. The Company’s obligations under this Section 6.07 shall survive the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or the discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 608. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 
  
 (a) If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting
interest, as defined in this Section, with respect to the Securities of any series, it shall, within 90 days after ascertaining that it has such conflicting interest, either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign with respect to the
Securities of that series in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 
  
 (b) In the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Subsection (a) of this Section with respect to the
Securities of any series, the Trustee shall, within 10 days after the expiration of such 90-day period, transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of that series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such
failure. 
  
 (c) For the purposes of this
Section, the Trustee shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to the Securities of any series if 
  

 57 








 (1) the Trustee is trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Outstanding Securities of any series
other than that series or is trustee under another indenture under which any other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in any other securities, of the Company or the Guarantor are outstanding, unless such other indenture is a
collateral trust indenture under which the only collateral consists of Securities issued under this Indenture, provided that there shall be excluded from the operation of this paragraph this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any
series other than that series or any other indenture or indentures under which other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Company or the Guarantor are outstanding, if 
  
 (i) this Indenture and such other indenture or indentures are
wholly unsecured and such other indenture or indentures are hereafter qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, unless the Commission shall have found and declared by order pursuant to Section 305(b) or Section 307(c) of the Trust Indenture Act that
differences exist between the provisions of this Indenture with respect to Securities of that series and one or more other series or the provisions of such other indenture or indentures which are so likely to involve a material conflict of interest
as to make it necessary in the public interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from acting as such under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series and such other series or under such other indenture or
indentures, or 
  
 (ii) the Company shall have
sustained the burden of proving, on application to the Commission and after opportunity for hearing thereon, that trusteeship under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series and such other series or such other indenture or
indentures is not so likely to involve a material conflict of interest as to make it necessary in the public interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from acting as such under this Indenture with respect to the
Securities of that series and such other series or under such other indenture or indentures; 
  
 (2) the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is an obligor upon the Securities or an underwriter for the Company or the Guarantor; 
  

 58 








 (3) the Trustee directly or indirectly controls or is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under
direct or indirect common control with the Company or the Guarantor or an underwriter for the Company or the Guarantor;

Guarantor, or of an underwriter (other than the Trustee itself) for the Company or the Guarantor who is currently engaged in the business of underwriting, except that (i) one individual may be a director or an executive officer, or both, of the
Trustee and a director or an executive officer, or both, of the Company but may not be at the same time an executive officer of both the Trustee and the Company or the Guarantor; (ii) if and so long as the number of directors of the Trustee in
office is more than nine, one additional individual may be a director or an executive officer, or both, of the Trustee and a director of the Company or the Guarantor; and (iii) the Trustee may be designated by the Company or the Guarantor or by any
underwriter for the Company or the Guarantor to act in the capacity of transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying agent, fiscal agent, escrow agent or depositary; or in any other similar capacity, or, subject to the provisions of paragraph (1) of
this Subsection, to act as trustee, whether under an indenture or otherwise; 
  
 (5) 10% or more of the voting securities of the Trustee is beneficially owned either by the Company or the Guarantor or by any director or executive officer thereof, or 20% or more of such voting securities is
beneficially owned, collectively, by any two or more of such persons; or 10% or more of the voting securities of the Trustee is beneficially owned either by an underwriter for the Company or the Guarantor or by any director or executive officer
thereof, or is beneficially owned, collectively, by any two or more such persons;

 (8) the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as
collateral security for an obligation which is in default (as hereinafter in this Subsection defined), 10% or more of any class of security of any person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns 50% or more of the voting securities of the Company
or the Guarantor; or 
  
 (9) the Trustee owns, on
May 15 in any calendar year, in the capacity of executor, administrator, testamentary or inter vivos trustee, guardian, committee or conservator, or in any other similar capacity, an aggregate of 25% or more of the voting securities, or of any class
of security, of any person, the beneficial ownership of a specified percentage of which would have constituted a conflicting interest under paragraph (6), (7) or (8) of this Subsection. As to any such securities of which the Trustee acquired
ownership through becoming executor, administrator or testamentary trustee of an estate which included them, the provisions of the preceding sentence shall not apply, for a period of two years from the date of such acquisition, to the extent that
such securities included in such estate do not exceed 25% of such voting securities or 25% of any such class of security. Promptly after May 15 in each calendar year, the Trustee shall make a check of its holdings of such securities in any of the
above- mentioned capacities as of such May 15. If the Company or the Guarantor fails to make payment in full of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities when and as the same becomes due and payable, and such failure
continues for 30 days thereafter, the Trustee shall make a prompt check of its holdings of such securities in any of the above-mentioned capacities as of the date of the expiration of such 30-day period, and after such date, notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph, all such securities so held by the Trustee, with sole or joint control over such securities vested in it, shall, but only so long as such failure shall continue, be considered as though beneficially owned by
the Trustee for the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7) and (8) of this Subsection. 
  

 60 








 The specification of percentages in paragraphs (5) to (9), inclusive, of this Subsection shall not be
construed as indicating that the ownership of such percentages of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of paragraph (3) or (7) of this Subsection. 
  
 For the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7), (8) and (9) of this Subsection only,
(i) the terms “security” and “securities” shall include only such securities as are generally known as corporate securities, but shall not include any note or other evidence of indebtedness issued to evidence an obligation to
repay moneys lent to a person by one or more banks, trust companies or banking firms, or any certificate of interest or participation in any such note or evidence of indebtedness; (ii) an obligation shall be deemed to be “in default” when
a default in payment of principal shall have continued for 30 days or more and shall not have been cured; and (iii) the Trustee shall not be deemed to be the owner or holder of (A) any security which it holds as collateral security, as trustee or
otherwise, for an obligation which is not in default as defined in clause (ii) above, or (B) any security which it holds as collateral security under this Indenture, irrespective of any default hereunder, or (C) any security which it holds as agent

time as of which the determination is made, has purchased from the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, with a view to, or has offered or sold for the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in connection with, the distribution of any
security of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, outstanding at such time, or has participated or has had a direct or indirect participation in any such undertaking, or has participated or has had a participation in the direct or
indirect underwriting of any such undertaking, but such term shall not include a person whose interest was limited to a commission from an underwriter or dealer not in excess of the usual and customary distributors’ or sellers’ commission.

  
 (2) The term “director” means any

 (4) The term “voting security” means any security presently entitling the owner or holder thereof
to vote in the direction or management of the affairs of a person, or any security issued under or pursuant to any trust, agreement or arrangement whereby a trustee or trustees or agent or agents for the owner or holder of such security are
presently entitled to vote in the direction or management of the affairs of a person.

 (1) A specified percentage of the voting securities of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantor or any other person referred to in this
Section (each of whom is referred to as a “person” in this paragraph) means such amount of the outstanding voting securities of such person as entitles the holder or holders thereof to cast such specified percentage of the aggregate votes
which the holders of all the outstanding voting securities of such person are entitled to cast in the direction or management of the affairs of such person. 
  
 (2) A specified percentage of a class of securities of a person means such percentage of the aggregate amount of securities of the class
outstanding.

relating to another class of securities of the issuer, if the obligation evidenced by such other class of securities is not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;

 (5) A security shall be deemed to be of the same class as
another security if both securities confer upon the holder or holders thereof substantially the same rights and privileges; provided, however, that, in the case of secured evidences of indebtedness, all of which are issued under a
single indenture, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such series different classes and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences
of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute them securities of different classes, whether or not they are issued under a single indenture. 
  
 Section 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $100,000,000 subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for

  

 63 








 the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 
  
 Section 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
  
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with
the applicable requirements of Section 611. 
  
 (b) The Trustee
may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee
within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to Securities of such series. 
  
 (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of
any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 
  
 (d) If at any time: 
  
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608(a) after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a
bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
  
 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or 
  
 (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 
  
 then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may
remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) 
  

 64 








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

  
 Section 611. Acceptance of Appointment by
Successor. 
  
 (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a
successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument 
  

 65 








 accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and
such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee
shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 
  
 (b) In case
of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee respect to the securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee
all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all
Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring
Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more
than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust hereunder separate and apart from any trust or
trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such
successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such
successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect
to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 
  
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming
to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 
  

 66 








 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
  
 Section 612. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
  
 Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation
shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the
Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Securities. 
  
 Section 613.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 
  
 (a)
Subject to Subsection (b) of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company within four months prior to a default, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section, or
subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the Holders of the Securities and the holders of other indenture
securities, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section: 
  
 (1) an amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest, effected after the beginning of such four months’ period and valid as
against the Company and its other creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in paragraph (2) of this Subsection, or from the exercise of any right of set- off which the Trustee could
have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against the Company upon the date of such default; and 
  
 (2) all property received by the Trustee in respect of any claims as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or
composition thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such four months’ period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if 
  

 67 








 disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its other creditors in such
property or such proceeds. 
  
 Nothing herein contained, however, shall affect the
right of the Trustee: 
  
 (A) to retain for its
own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any Person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and (ii) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third Person, and (iii) distributions made in
cash, securities or other property in respect of claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law; 
  
 (B) to realize, for its own account, upon any property held
by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to the beginning of such four months’ period; 
  
 (C) to realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security
for any such claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such four months’ period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving
that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section, would occur within four months; orf 
  
 (D) to receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph
(B) or (C), against the release of any property held as security for such claim as provided in paragraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property. 
  
 For the purposes of paragraphs (B), (C) and (D), property substituted after the beginning of such four months’ period
for property held as security at the time of such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such paragraphs is
created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding any pre-existing claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as such pre-existing claim. 
  
 If the Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in
such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned among the Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the 
  

 68 








 Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities realize, as a result of payments from such special
account and payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, the same percentage of their respective claims,
figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the respective claims of the Trustee and the Holders and the
holders of other indenture securities dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, but after crediting thereon
receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim, the
term “dividends” shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, whether such distribution is made
in cash, securities or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such bankruptcy, receivership or proceedings for reorganization is pending shall have
jurisdiction (i) to apportion among the Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special account and proceeds thereof, or (ii) in
lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee and the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities
with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value of any securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific
allocation of such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the provisions of this paragraph as a mathematical formula. 
  
 Any Trustee which has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such four months’ period shall be subject to the
provisions of this Subsection as though such resignation or removal had not occurred. If any Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such four months’ period, it shall be subject to the provisions of this Subsection if
and only if the following conditions exist: 
  
 (i) the receipt of property or reduction of claim, which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued as Trustee, occurred after the beginning of such four months’ period; and 
  

 69 








 (ii) such receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within four months after such resignation or
removal. 
  
 (b) There shall be excluded from the operation of
Subsection (a) of this Section a creditor relationship arising from: 
  
 (1) the ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of one year or more at the time of acquisition by the Trustee; 
  
 (2) advances authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent
jurisdiction or by this Indenture, for the purpose of preserving any property which shall at any time be subject to the lien of this Indenture or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon, if notice of such advances and
of the circumstances surrounding the making thereof is given to the Holders at the time and in the manner provided in this Indenture; 
  
 (3) disbursements made in the ordinary course of business in the capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying
agent, fiscal agent or depositary, or other similar capacity; 
  
 (4) an indebtedness created as a result of services rendered or premises rented; or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities sold in a cash transaction, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section; 
  
 (5) the ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation organized
under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, which is directly or indirectly a creditor of the Company; and 
  
 (6) the acquisition, ownership, acceptance or negotiation of any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances or obligations which fall within the
classification of self-liquidating paper, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section. 
  
 (c) For the purposes of this Section only: 
  
 (1) the term “default” means any failure to make payment in full of the principal of or interest on any of the Securities or upon the other indenture securities when and as such principal or interest becomes
due and payable; 
  
 (2) the term “other indenture
securities” means securities upon which the Company is an obligor outstanding under any other indenture (i) under which the Trustee is also trustee, (ii) which contains provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section, and
(iii) under 
  

 70 








 which a default exists at the time of the apportionment of the funds and property held in such special account;

  
 (3) the term “cash transaction” means any
transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; 
  
 (4) the term “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of
exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by
documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is
received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company arising from the making, drawing, negotiation or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation; 
  
 (5) the term “Company” means any obligor upon the Securities; and

  
 (6) the term “Federal Bankruptcy Act” means the
Bankruptcy Act or Title 11 of the United States Code. 
  
 Section 614. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
  
 At
any time when any of the Securities remains Outstanding the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities
of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed
to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company
and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having 
  

 71 








 a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or
State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and
surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
  
 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent,
provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
  
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or
upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company
and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No
successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
  
 The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee
shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 607. 
  
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:

Certain Payments Held by the Trustee.

in such investments as may be specified by the Company or the Guarantor (as applicable) and reasonably agreed to by the Trustee from time to time; provided that no amounts deposited in respect of any payment on a Security shall be invested in
an investment that matures after the due date of such payment and that the Trustee shall have no liability to the Company or the Guarantor for any loss on such investments; provided, further, that in investing trust funds pursuant to
the terms of this Section and liquidating any investments held in trust hereunder, the Trustee may, to the extent permitted by law, purchase securities (including for the purposes of this paragraph securities as to which the Trustee or a Trustee
Affiliate is the issuer or guarantor) from, and sell securities to, itself or any Trustee Affiliate and purchase securities underwritten by, or in which a market is made by, the Trustee or a Trustee Affiliate. For the purposes hereof, a
“Trustee Affiliate” shall mean an entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Trustee. Any income or gain realized as a result of any such

Event of Default. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Company or the Guarantor for the selection of investments or for any loss resulting from any investment made in accordance with this Section, and shall bear no expense in connection with
any investment pursuant to this Section. The Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investments prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the Company or the Guarantor to provide
timely written investment directions. Any such investment may be sold (without regard to maturity date) by the Trustee whenever necessary to make any distribution required by this Indenture.

reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of such series as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such information is furnished, and 
  
 (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the
Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; 
  
 provided, however, that so long as the Trustee is the Security Registrar for a particular series, no such list shall be required to be furnished with
respect to such series. 
  
 Section 702. Preservation of Information;
Communications to Holders. 
  
 (a) The Trustee shall preserve, in
as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 701 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity
as Security Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 701 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 
  
 (b) If three or more Holders (herein referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof
that each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under
this Indenture or under the Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the 
  

 74 








 Trustee shall, within five business days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either 
  
 (i) afford such applicants access to the information
preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), or 
  
 (ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), and as to the approximate
cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application. 
  
 If the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail
to each Holder whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a) a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness
after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the
Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interest of the Holders or would be in violation of applicable law. Such
written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if,
after the entry of an order sustaining or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail
copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.

  
 (c) Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the
same, agrees with the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee that neither the Company, the Guarantor nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and
addresses of the Holders in accordance with Section 702(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under
Section 702(b).

or collected by it as Trustee, except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances so remaining unpaid aggregate not more than 1/2 of 1% of the principal amount of the Securities Outstanding on the
date of such report; 
  
 (3) the amount, interest
rate and maturity date of all other indebtedness owing by the Company (or by any other obligor on the Securities) to the Trustee in its individual capacity, on the date of such report, with a brief description of any property held as collateral

taken by the Trustee in the performance of its duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion materially affects the Securities, except action in respect of a default, notice of which has been or is to be withheld by
the Trustee in accordance with Section 602. 
  
 (b) The Trustee
shall transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, a brief report with respect to the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the 
  

 76 








 circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee (as such) since the date of the last report transmitted
pursuant to Subsection (a) of this Section (or if such report has yet been so transmitted, since the date of execution of this instrument) for the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Securities, on
property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee and which it has not previously reported pursuant to this Subsection, except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances remaining unpaid at any
time aggregate 10% or less of the principal amount of the Securities Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted within 90 days after such time. 
  
 (c) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any
Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Company. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange. 
  
 Section 704. Reports by Guarantor. 
  
 Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, so long as any Securities are outstanding, the Guarantor shall furnish to the
Trustee (i) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Guarantor were required to file such forms, including a “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report thereon by the Guarantor’s certified independent accountants and (ii) all reports that would be required
to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Guarantor were required to file such reports. In addition, whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the Guarantor shall file a copy of all such information with the

times comply with TIA (S) 314(a).

 Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
  

The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or
surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the 
  

 82 








 Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Trustee is hereby initially
appointed Paying Agent, and the principal Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee is initially designated as the office or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee
of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations,
surrenders notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
  
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or
agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or
rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee
of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
  
 Section 1003. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
  
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before
each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or
interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act. 
  
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of
Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due,
such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act.

  
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of
Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree 
  

 83 








 with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
  
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 
  
 (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and 
  
 (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee,
forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
  
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums
held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such
Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 
  
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or received by the Trustee in respect of obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 403 or 1010, or then held by the Company, in trust for the
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on
Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee
or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make
any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City and State
of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

 Subject to Article Eight, each of the Company and the Guarantor will do or
cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Guarantor

 Each of the Company and the
Guarantor will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any of its Subsidiaries to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will
cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection
therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company or the Guarantor from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such
properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

Claims.

discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Guarantor, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or upon the income,
profits or property of the Guarantor, the Company or any or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or the
Guarantor or any or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Guarantor, the Company and such Subsidiary shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax,
assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

Restricted Subsidiary on any property of or any shares of equity interests or evidences of Indebtedness issued by the Company, the Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary and owned by the Guarantor, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, without
making, or causing such Restricted Subsidiary to make, effective provision to secure all of the Securities issued hereunder and then outstanding by such Lien, equally and ratably with any and all other such Indebtedness thereby secured, so long as
such other Indebtedness is so secured. The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to Permitted Liens. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 1007, the Guarantor, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may create or suffer to
exist Liens securing Indebtedness in addition to those permitted by subsection (a) of this Section 1007, and renew, extend or replace such Liens provided that, at the time such Indebtedness is incurred and after giving effect thereto,
Exempted Debt does not exceed 10% of Consolidated Stockholders Equity. 
  
 Section 1008. Limitation Upon Sale and Leaseback Transactions. 
  
 (a) Neither the Guarantor nor the Company will, and the Guarantor and the Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any
arrangements with any Person providing for the leasing by the Guarantor, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of any property or asset now owned or hereafter acquired which has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Guarantor, the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary to such Person with the intention of taking back a lease of such property (a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”), unless the net proceeds of such sale or transfer have been determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company or the Guarantor (as applicable) to be at least equal to the fair value of such property or asset at the time of such sale and transfer and either (i) the Guarantor, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary applies or causes to be
applied an amount equal to the net proceeds of such sale or transfer, within 180 days of receipt thereof, to the retirement or prepayment (other than any mandatory retirement or prepayment) of Senior Funded Debt of the Guarantor, the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary or to the purchase of property or assets to be used in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) the Guarantor, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would, on the effective date of such sale or transfer, be entitled,
pursuant to Section 1007 hereof, to issue, assume or guarantee Indebtedness secured by a Lien upon such property or asset at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt in respect of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably
securing the Securities having the benefit of Section 1007. The foregoing restriction shall not apply to any Sale and Leaseback Transaction (i) between the Company and the Guarantor, between the Guarantor or the 
  

 86 








 Company and a Restricted Subsidiary, or between Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that the lessor shall be the
Guarantor, the Company or a Wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) which has a lease of less than three years in length.

Restricted Subsidiary, (B) such Person merges into or consolidates with a Restricted Subsidiary, or (C) a Restricted Subsidiary merges into or consolidates with such Person (in a transaction in which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) in
the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (C), which Funded Debt was not incurred in anticipation of such transaction and was outstanding prior to such transaction; (iv) Funded Debt incurred to provide funds for all or part of the cost of
acquisition, construction, development or improvement of property (including shares of equity interests), provided that the commitment of the creditor to extend the credit evidenced by such Funded Debt shall have been obtained not later than

 Section 1010. Defeasance of Certain Obligations. 
  
 If this Section is specified, as contemplated by Section 301, to be
applicable to Securities of any series, the Guarantor and the Company may omit to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 1007 to 1009, inclusive, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that the
following conditions shall have been satisfied: 
  
 (1) With reference to this Section 1010, the Company has deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited (except as provided in Section 403) with the Trustee as trust funds in trust, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated
solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (i) in the case of Securities of such series denominated in U.S. dollars, cash in U.S. dollars (or such other money or currencies as shall then be legal tender in the United States) and/or
U.S. Government obligations, or (ii) in the case of Securities of such series denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than a basket currency), money and/or Foreign Government Securities in the same Foreign Currency, which through the payment of
interest and principal in respect thereof, in accordance with their terms, will provide (and without reinvestment and assuming no tax liability will be imposed on such Trustee), not later than one day before the due date of any payment of money, an
amount in cash, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal (and
premium, if any) (including mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments) of and any interest on all the Securities of such series on the dates such installments of interest or principal are due; 
  
 (2) Such deposit shall not, in the Opinion of Counsel, cause
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series to have a conflicting interest as defined in Section 608 and for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to the Securities of such series; 
  
 (3) Such deposit will not result in a breach or violation
of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound; 
  
 (4) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of
such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; 
  
 (5) The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (x) Holders of the Securities of such series will
not recognize income gain or 
  

 88 








 loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance of certain obligations
and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred and (y) upon the 91st day after the date of such deposit, the trust
funds would not be subject to being characterized as a preference for Bankruptcy Law purposes; and 
  
 (6) The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the defeasance contemplated by this Section have been complied with. 
  
 Section 1011. Statement by Officers as to Default. 
  
 Each of the Guarantor and the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the
Guarantor and the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Guarantor and the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the
terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture and if the Guarantor and the Company shall be in default specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 
  
 Section 1012. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
  
 The Guarantor and the Company may omit in any particular instance to comply
with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 1005 to 1009, inclusive, with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or
condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Guarantor and the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term provision or condition shall remain in full
force and effect. 
  
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated
to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive compliance with any covenant or condition hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such
Persons, shall be entitled to waive any such compliance, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that unless the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such
series shall have waived such compliance prior 
  

 89 








 to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given shall automatically and without
further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
  
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 
  
 Redemption of Securities 
  
 Section 1101. Applicability of Article.

 Section 1102. Election to Redeem: Notice to Trustee. 
  
 The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at
the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of
such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or
elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
  
 Section 1103. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 
  
 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior
to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of
portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for
Securities of that series. 
  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify
the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
  
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of

  

 90 








 Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
  
 Section 1104. Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security
Register. 
  
 All notices of redemption shall state: 

 
 (1) the Redemption Date, 
  
 (2) the Redemption Price, 
  
 (3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any
series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 
  
 (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if
applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 
  
 (5) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and 
  
 (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is
the case. 
  
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at
the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
  
 Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  
 Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent,
segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be
redeemed on that date. 
  
 Section 1106.
Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
  
 Notice of redemption
having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in 
  

 91 








 the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of
any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date: provided, however, that installments of
interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to
their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
  
 If any Security
called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
  
 Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. 
  
 Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a
Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized
denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. 
  
 ARTICLE TWELVE 
  
 Sinking Funds 
  
 Section 1201. Applicability of Article. 
  
 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series. 
  
 The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of
Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section
1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of 
  

 92 








 Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with
Securities. 
  
 The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding
Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the
application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant
to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that such securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption
Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
  
 Section 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
  
 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series
of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202 and the basis for such credit and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund
payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company
in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. 
  
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 
  
 Guarantee 
  
 Section 1301. Guarantee. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Securities or the obligations of the Company hereunder or 
  

 93 








 thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including additional amounts, if any) on the
Securities will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations
of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or
any of such other obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so
guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantor will be obligated to pay the same immediately. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any
judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor other than the defense that payment has been made or that the other
relevant obligations have been paid or performed. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, claim of fraud, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities and this Indenture. If any Holder
or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or Guarantor, or any Custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or Guarantor, any amount paid by either to the
Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. The Guarantor agrees that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x)
the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Five for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Five, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of
this Guarantee. The foregoing Guarantee shall rank pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Guarantor. 
  

 94 








 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of each Holder of any Securities against the Company in
respect of any amounts paid to the Holders by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive, any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of
subrogation until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including additional amounts, if any) on all the Securities shall have been paid in full and nothing remains owed to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. 
  
 Section 1302. Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

  
 To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 1301 hereof,
the Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Guarantee substantially in the form of Exhibit A shall be endorsed (manually or by facsimile) by an officer of the Guarantor on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and that
this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman, Vice Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer or one of its Vice Presidents and attested to by the Treasurer, an Assistant Treasurer, the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set
forth in Section 1301 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee. 
  
 If an officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security on
which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee shall be valid, binding and enforceable nevertheless. 
  
 The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this
Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor. 
  
 Section
1303. Guarantor May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 
  
 The
Guarantor shall not consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and the Guarantor shall not permit any Person to consolidate with or merge
into the Guarantor or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to the Guarantor, unless: 
  
 (1) in case the Guarantor shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any Person, the corporation formed by such consolidation or 
  

 95 








 into which the Guarantor is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which
leases, the properties and assets of the Guarantor substantially as an entirety shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia or the British Virgin Islands
and shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the obligations under the Guarantee and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of
the Guarantor to be performed or observed; 
  
 (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and treating any indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Guarantor as a result of such transaction as having been incurred by the Guarantor at the time of such transaction, no
Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and be continuing; 
  
 (3) if, as a result of any such consolidation or merger or such conveyance, transfer or lease, properties or assets of the Guarantor would
become subject to a mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest or other encumbrance which would not be permitted by this Indenture, the Guarantor or such successor corporation or Person, as the case may be, shall take such steps as shall be necessary
effectively to secure the Securities equally and ratably with (or prior to) all indebtedness secured thereby; and 
  
 (4) the Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such
consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture complies with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to such transaction have been complied with. 
  
 Section 1304. [Intentionally omitted] 
  
 Section 1305. Optional Tax Redemption. 
  
 The
Securities of any series may be redeemed at the option of the Guarantor, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided herein, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof (except
for Securities issued at a price representing a discount from the principal amount payable at maturity which may be redeemed at the redemption price set forth in such Securities) plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption if, as a result
of any change in or amendment to the 
 laws or any regulations or ruling promulgated thereunder of any jurisdiction 
  

 96 








 (or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Guarantor is resident for tax
purposes, or any change in the official application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting
taxation to which such jurisdiction (or such political subdivision or taxing authority) is a party (a “Change in Tax Law”), which becomes effective on or after the original issue date of such Securities, the Guarantor is or would be
required on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to pay additional amounts with respect to the Securities as described under Section 1306, and the payment of such additional amounts cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures
available to the Guarantor. 
  
 The Securities of any series may
also be redeemed at the option of the Guarantor, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided herein at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof (except for Securities
issued at a price representing a discount from the principal amount payable at maturity which may be redeemed at the redemption price set forth in such Securities) plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption if the Person formed by a
consolidation or amalgamation of the Guarantor or into which the Guarantor is merged or to which the Guarantor conveys, transfers or leases its properties and assets substantially as an entirety is required, as a consequence of such consolidation,
amalgamation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and as a consequence of a Change in Tax Law occurring after the date of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, to pay additional amounts (as described in Section
1306) in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed on any Holder. 
  
 The Guarantor will also pay, or make available for payment, to Holders on the redemption date any additional amounts (as described in Section 1306) resulting from the payment of such redemption price. 
  
 Section 1306. Payment of Additional Amounts. 
  
 If any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes, assessments
or other governmental charges of any jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Guarantor is resident for tax purposes shall at any time be required by such jurisdiction (or any such political
subdivision or taxing authority) in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Guarantor under the Guarantee, the Guarantor will pay to each Holder of Outstanding Securities as additional interest, such additional amounts as may be necessary in order
that the net amounts paid to such Holder who, with respect to any such tax, assessment or other governmental charge, is not resident in, or a citizen of, such jurisdiction, after such deduction or withholding, shall be not less than the amount

  

 97 








 to which such Holder is entitled; provided, however, the Guarantor shall not be required to make any
payment of additional amounts for or on account of: 
  
 (i) Any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for (a) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of
such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the taxing jurisdiction or any political subdivision or territory or possession thereof or area subject to its jurisdiction, including,
without limitation, such Holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having had a permanent
establishment therein or (b) the presentation of an Outstanding Security (where presentation is required) for payment on a date more than 30 days after (x) the date on which such payment became due and payable or (y) the date on which payment
thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; 
  
 (ii) Any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
  
 (iii) Any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding from payment of (or in respect of)
principal of, premium, if any, or any interest on, Outstanding Securities; 
  
 (iv) Any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Outstanding Security with a request of the Guarantor
addressed to the Holder (a) to provide information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (b) to make and deliver any declaration or other similar claim (other than a
claim for refund of a tax, assessment or other governmental charge withheld by the Guarantor) or satisfy any information or reporting requirements, which, in the case of (a) or (b), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or
administrative practice of the taxing jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge, provided that, in the case of (b), the Holder is legally entitled to deliver such
declaration or similar claim; or 
  
 (v) Any
combination of items (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above; 
  

 98 








 nor shall additional amounts be paid with respect to any payment of the principal of, or any premium or interest on, any
Outstanding Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or limited liability company or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of any jurisdiction in which the
Guarantor is resident for tax purposes (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership,
limited liability company or beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such additional amounts had it been the Holder of such Outstanding Security. 
  

Section 1307. “Trustee” to Include Paying Agent. 
  
 In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting
hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article Thirteen shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully and for all intents and
purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article Thirteen in place of the Trustee.

successor Person, either directly or through the Company or the Guarantor, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this

 of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in
this Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of such Securities.
