 The Securities of each series shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto or in such other form as shall be established by delivery to
the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have
such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Officers executing
such Securities as evidenced by their execution of the Securities. 
  
 The permanent Securities shall be printed, lithographed, engraved or cord processed or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner, provided that such method is permitted by the rules of any
securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, all as determined by the Officers executing such Securities as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

 If Securities of a series are issuable as a Global Security, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, then, notwithstanding clause

Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.08 hereof. 
  
 Global Securities may be issued in either registered or bearer form and in either temporary or permanent form. Permanent
Global Securities will be issued in definitive form.

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.02 and 2.14 hereof, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, payment of principal of and any interest on any Global Security shall be made to the person or persons specified therein. 
  
 None of the Company, the Guarantor, if any, the Trustee of such series of Securities, any Paying Agent or Registrar will
have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests.

Securities of the series; and 
  
 (23) any other
terms of the Securities of the series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, except as permitted by Section 9.01(i) hereof). 
  
 All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and the rate or rates of
interest, if any, and Stated Maturity, the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) or in any indenture supplemental

the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series or for the establishment of additional terms with respect to the Securities of such series.

 Section 2.04. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 
  
 Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile
signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time a Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid. 
  
 A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive
evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
  
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture (and subject to delivery of an Officers’ Certificate or a supplemental indenture as set forth in Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to the
initial issuance of Securities of any series), the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the
Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the forms or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more Officers’ Certificates as permitted by
Sections 2.01 and 2.03(a) hereof, 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 shall be fully protected in relying
upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating: 
  
 (a) that the form or
forms and terms of such Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
  
 (b) that such Securities when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or its authenticating agent and issued by the Company in the manner and subject
to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.03(a) hereof and of the
preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof and the Opinion of Counsel
required by the preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.

  
 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 duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and
such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following
form: 
  
 This is one of the Securities of the series designated
therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 The Trustee
shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Security under this Section if the Trustee determines that such action may not lawfully be taken by the Company or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or board of
trustee, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees or Responsible Officers shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing Holders. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly
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 2.13 hereof together with a written statement (which need not
comply with Section 14.04 or 14.05 hereof 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 2.05. Registrar and Paying Agent. 
  
 The Company shall maintain, with respect to each series of Securities, an office or agency where such Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or
agency where Securities may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. 
  
 The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar”
includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and
address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

  
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the
Registrar and Paying Agent. 
  
 Section 2.06. Paying Agent to Hold Money in
Trust. 
  
 The Company shall require each Paying Agent other
than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders of Securities of any series or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on such
series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time
may require a Paying 

  

 15 







 
Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have
no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization
proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities. 
  
 Section 2.07. Holder Lists. 
  
 The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders of each series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA
Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and
as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of such series of Securities and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). 
  
 Section 2.08. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
  
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Securities of a series at
an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof for such purpose, 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, of a like aggregate principal amount. The Company shall not charge a service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the registration of transfer or exchange of the Securities from the Holder requesting such registration of transfer or exchange (other than any
exchange of a temporary Security for a permanent Security not involving any change in ownership or any exchange pursuant to Section 2.12, 3.06, 9.05 or 10.3 hereof, not involving any transfer). 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provisions (other than the provisions set forth in
the sixth and seventh paragraphs) of this Section 2.08, a Security in global form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such
Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
  
 At the option of the Holder of Securities of any series, Securities of such
series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, 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. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, if
the Securities of any series shall have been issued in the form of one or more Global Securities, such series of 

  

 16 







 
Securities in global form will be exchanged for Securities of such series in permanent form if (i) the Depositary for the Securities of such series
notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series and a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 120 days after the Company receives
such notice, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Securities of such series shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such
series shall have occurred and be continuing. In any such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of permanent Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver
Securities of such series in permanent form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form.

  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified
in the preceding paragraph or as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, any Global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interests in a Global Security are entitled to exchange such
interests for permanent Securities of such series and of like principal amount and tenor but of another authorized form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, then without unnecessary delay but in any event
not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee permanent Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security, executed by the Company.
On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such Global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or
from time to time in part, for permanent Securities without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of permanent Securities of the same series
of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such Global Security to be exchanged which shall be in the form of Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the last paragraph of this Section 2.08 hereof, no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant
Redemption Date. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a Global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of
business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest (as defined
herein), interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or
proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such Global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
  
 Upon the exchange of a Security in global form for Securities in permanent
form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures and, upon the Company’s written request, a
certificate of their destruction shall be delivered to the 

  

 17 







 
Company. Securities issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this Section 2.08 hereof shall be registered in such names and in such
authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities as
instructed in writing by the Depositary. 
  
 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 be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing. 
  
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue,
register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of 15 Business Days before any selection of Securities of such series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the
mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any series so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

  
 Section 2.09. Replacement Securities. 
  
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and
the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate a replacement Security if the Trustee’s
requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating
agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company or the Trustee may charge for its expenses in replacing a Security. 
  
 Every replacement Security is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
  
 Section 2.10.
Outstanding Securities. 
  
 The Securities of any series
outstanding at any time are all the Securities of such series authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.11 hereof, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the
Security. Subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such determination (including, without limitation, determinations pursuant to Articles 6 and 9 hereof). In addition, in
determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have 

  

 18 







 
given or concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, (i) the principal amount of a Discount
Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof and
(ii) the principal amount of a Security denominated in a foreign currency or currencies shall be the dollar equivalent, as determined on the date of original issuance of such Security, of the principal amount (or, in the case of a Discount
Security, the dollar equivalent on the date of original issuance of such Security of the amount determined as provided in (i) above) of such Security. 
  
 If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the
replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser. 
  
 If the
principal amount of any Security is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
  
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient
to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 
  
 Section 2.11. Treasury Securities. 
  
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of any series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent,
Securities of such series owned by the Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Securities of that series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  
 Section 2.12. Temporary Securities. 
  
 Until certificates representing Securities of any series are ready for
delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of certificated Securities but may have variations that the Company
considers appropriate for temporary Securities and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same series in exchange for
temporary Securities. 
  
 Holders of temporary Securities of any
series shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture as permanent Securities of the same series. 
  
 Section 2.13. Cancellation. 
  
 The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for 

  

 19 







 
registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange,
payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Upon the Company’s written request, certification of the destruction of all canceled Securities shall
be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  
 Section 2.14. Payment of Interest. 
  
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof 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. 
  
 If the Company defaults in a payment of
interest on the Securities of any series which is payable (“Defaulted Interest”), it shall pay the Defaulted Interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the Defaulted Interest, to the Persons who are
Holders of the series on a subsequent Special Record Date, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities of that series and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest
proposed to be paid on each Securities of a series and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such Special Record Date and payment date, provided that no such Special Record Date shall be less than 10 days
prior to the related payment date for such Defaulted Interest. At least 15 days before the Special Record Date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause
to be mailed to Holders of the series a notice that states the Special Record Date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
  
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14 and Section 2.08 hereof, 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 2.15. 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 (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof and subject to Sections 2.08 and
2.14 hereof) 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.

  
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the
Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account 

  

 20 







 
of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests. 
  
 Section 2.16. Computation of Interest. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof
for Securities of any series, (i) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a fixed rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and (ii) interest on any Securities which bear interest at
a variable rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period divided by 360. 
  
 Section 2.17. CUSIP Numbers. 
  
 The Company, in issuing the Securities, may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP”
numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities of a series or as contained in any notice
of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities of such series, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will provide
prompt notice to the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers with written notice to follow. 
  
 ARTICLE 3. 
  
 REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT 
  
 Section 3.01. Right to Redeem; Notices

before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article 3. If the Company elects
to redeem Securities of any series, it shall furnish to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee) but not more than 75 days before a redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth
(i) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed, (iv) any other information necessary to identify the

 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to any series of Securities, if less than all of the Securities of a series are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the
Trustee will select the Securities to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of the Securities of that Series in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or, if
the Securities are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected,
unless otherwise provided herein, not 

  

 21 







 
less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption.

  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of
the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, Securities and portions
of Securities selected will be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called
for redemption. 
  
 Section 3.03. Notice of Redemption to Holders.

  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to any series of Securities, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose
Securities are to be redeemed at its registered address. 
  
 The
notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state: 
  
 (a) the Redemption Date; 
  
 (b) the Redemption Price;

  
 (c) 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 amount) of the particular Security to be redeemed; 
  
 (d) that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Security; 
  
 (e) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
  
 (f)
that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price; 
  
 (g) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest, if any, on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and
after the Redemption Date; 
  
 (h) the paragraph of the Securities
and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities called for redemption are being redeemed; 
  
 (i) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case; and 
  
 (j) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or
printed on the Securities. 
  

 22 







 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name
and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate requesting that
the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a redemption notice may be mailed more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with
a defeasance of the Securities or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Securities called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be
conditional. 
  
 Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  
 Prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on the Redemption Date, the Company shall
deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Securities of a series to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company
any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all Securities to be redeemed. 
  
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on
and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or the portions of Securities called for redemption. If a Security is redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date,
then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for
redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such
unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Securities and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
  
 Section 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. 
  
 Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Company a new Security
equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

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. 
  
 The Company also may from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of a series may
be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office

agency.

 Section 6.02. Acceleration. 
  
 If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause
(e) or (f) of Section 6.01 hereof with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of that series may declare all the Securities
of that series to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Securities of that series shall become due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of

interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived; provided (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 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 all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07, and (b) the rescission does not conflict with any judgment or decree

or this Indenture. 
  

 28 







 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities of a series or
does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Security of such series in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
  
 Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
  
 Subject to Section 6.02, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the
Securities of such series waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities of that
series (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including
any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration). 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 6.05. Control by Majority. 
  
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or
exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of such Securities
or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
  
 Section 6.06.
Limitation on Suits.

 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding
Securities of such series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (c) the Holder of a Security of such series or Holders of Securities of such series offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

  
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60
days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and 
  

 29 







 (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Securities of such series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
  
 A Holder of any Security may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 
  
 Section 6.07. Rights of Holders of Securities to Receive Payment and Convert. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Holder of any
Security shall have the right to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit
for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. 
  
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Securities of any series and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  
 Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the

 ARTICLE 8. 
  
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to Securities of a particular series, the Company may elect, at its
option, at any time, to have either 

  

 36 







 
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities of any series designated pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof as being
defeasible (the “Defeased Securities”) in accordance with any additional requirements provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. Any such election shall be
evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof for such Securities. 
  
 Section 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option (if any) to have this Section 8.02
applied to any Securities of any series, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Defeased
Securities on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness
represented by the outstanding Defeased Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below,
and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Defeased Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following
provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Defeased Securities to receive solely from the trust fund under Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in
such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Defeased Securities when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Defeased Securities under Article 2 and
Section 4.01 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article 8. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the
Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
  
 Section 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option (if any) to have this Section 8.03 applied to any Securities of any
series the Company and, if applicable, each Guarantor shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under Sections 4.03, 4.05 and 4.06 hereof and Articles 5 and 12 hereof
and such other provisions as may be provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof with respect to Securities of a particular series and with respect to the outstanding Defeased Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Defeased Securities shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of
Holders of such Defeased Securities (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Defeased Securities
shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Defeased Securities, the Company and, if applicable, each Guarantor may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such 

  

 37 







 
covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant
to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such
Defeased Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.04 hereof and Sections 6.01(c), (d) and (g) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. 
  
 Section 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to a series of outstanding Securities: 
  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof
with respect to any series of Securities, in order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
  
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash, non-callable Government Securities, or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Securities of such series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case
may be; 
  
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.02
hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date this Indenture was
first executed, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such series will not
recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred; 
  
 (c) in the case of an election
under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as
a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; and

 38 







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

  
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and
non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in
respect of the outstanding Defeased Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Defeased Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Defeased Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Defeased Securities. 
  

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

Section 8.06. Repayment to Company. 
  
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Securities of a 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 its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such series of Securities shall thereafter 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 The New York Times and
The Wall Street Journal (national edition), 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 notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such
money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. Section 8.07. Reinstatement. 
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court
or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the 

  

 39 







 
Defeased Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any
Defeased Securities following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Defeased Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Securities as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents
described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Company and, if applicable, the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly affects the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
  
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under
this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  

 41 







 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company
shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the
validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof and except as otherwise provided below in this Section 9.02, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of
any series then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities of such series. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an
amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Securities of such series held by a non-consenting Holder): 
  
 (a) change the Stated Maturity of, the principal of, or any installment of principal or interest on, any such Security, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon redemption thereof or reduce the amount of principal of or premium, if any, on any such Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of
maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, or change the place of payment where, or change the coin or currency in which, any principal of, or any installment of interest on, any such Security is payable, or impair the right to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); 
  
 (b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such amendment
or supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) with respect to the Securities of such series
provided for in this Indenture; 
  
 (c) modify any of the
provisions of this Section 9.02 or Section 6.04 or 6.07 hereof, except to increase the percentage of outstanding Securities of such series required for such actions to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be
modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security of a series affected thereby; 
  
 (d) release any applicable Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Security Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of
this Indenture; or 
  
 (e) change such other matters as may be
specified pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof. 
  
 Section 9.03. Compliance
with Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Every amendment or supplement to
this Indenture or the Securities of any series shall be set forth in a amended or supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
  
 Section 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
  
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Security
and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s 

  

 42 







 
Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder of a Security or subsequent Holder of a Security may revoke
the consent as to its Securities if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and
thereafter binds every Holder. 
  
 Section 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of
Securities. 
  
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation
about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Security of a series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Securities of a series may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate new Securities of
such series that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Security shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 Section 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
  
 The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized
pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors approves
it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.04 hereof,
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
  
 Section 9.07. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 
  
 Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article 9, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance
therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby, except to the extent otherwise
set forth thereon. 
  
 ARTICLE 10. 
  
 SINKING FUNDS 
  
 Section 10.01. Applicability of Article. 
  
 The provisions of this Article 10 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof 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 

  

 43 







 
Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 10.02 hereof. Each sinking fund
payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 10.02. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 
  
 The Company (a) may deliver outstanding Securities of a series with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity (other than any previously
called for redemption) and (b) may apply as a credit Securities of a series with the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity 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 mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series with
the same issue date, interest rate and Stated Maturity; 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 10.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
  
 Not less than 60 days (or such shorter period as shall be acceptable to the Trustee) 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
payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof 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 3.02 hereof 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 3.03 hereof. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.04
and 3.06 hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 11. 
  
 SUBORDINATION 
  
 Section 11.01. Agreement to Subordinate. 
  
 The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Security agrees that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, the
Indebtedness evidenced by the Security is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 11, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt with respect to such Security (whether outstanding on the date
hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Debt. 
  

 44 







 Section 11.02. Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. 
  
 Upon any distribution to creditors of the Company in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in a bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, in an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities: 
  
 (a) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full of
all Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt (including interest after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt, whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding) before Holders of the
Securities of a series shall be entitled to receive any payment with respect to such Securities (except that Holders may receive and retain (A) Permitted Junior Securities and (B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance
trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof); and 
  
 (b)
until all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt (as provided in clause (a) above) are paid in full, any distribution to which Holders of Securities of such series would be entitled but for this Article 11 shall be made to holders of Senior
Debt (except that Holders of Securities or the Trustee, as the case may be, may receive and retain (A) Permitted Junior Securities, (B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01
hereof, and (C) all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereunder), as their interests may appear. 
  
 Section 11.03. Default on Designated Senior Debt. 
  
 (a) The Company may not make any payment or distribution in respect of the Securities of such series (other than (A) Permitted Junior Securities and
(B) payments and other distributions made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof) if: 
  
 (i) a default in the payment of any principal or other Obligations with respect to Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing beyond
any applicable grace period in the agreement, indenture or other document governing such Designated Senior Debt (a “payment default”); or 
  
 (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of the
Designated Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from a Person who may give it pursuant to Section 11.12 hereof. If the Trustee receives any such Payment
Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section 11.03 unless and until (A) at least 360 days shall have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and
(B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Securities that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment
Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been waived for a period of not less than 90 days. 
  

 45 







 (b) The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Securities of such
series upon the earlier of: 
  
 (i) the date upon
which the default is cured or waived or such Designated Senior Debt is discharged or paid in full, or 
  
 (ii) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) Section 11.04(a) hereof 179 days pass after notice is received if the
maturity of such Designated Senior Debt has not been accelerated. 
  
 Section
11.04. Acceleration of Securities. 
  
 If payment of the
Securities of such series is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration. 
  
 Section 11.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. 
  
 In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of any Obligations with respect to the Securities of a series at a time when such payment
is prohibited by Section 11.04 hereof, such payment shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, the holders of Senior Debt with respect to
Securities of such series as their interests may appear or their Representative under this Indenture or other agreement (if any) pursuant to which such Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application to
the payment of all Obligations with respect to such Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the
holders of such Senior Debt, except for amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. 
  
 With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set
forth in this Article 11, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of holders or the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this
Article 11, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or negligence of the Trustee. 
  
 Section 11.06. Notice by Company. 
  
 The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any facts known to the Company that would cause a payment of any Obligations with respect to the Securities to violate this Article 11, but failure
to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Securities to Senior Debt as provided in this Article 11. 
  

 46 







 Section 11.07. Subrogation. 
  
 After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Securities of a series are paid in full, Holders of Securities of such
series shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with the Securities of such series) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt with respect to Securities of such series to receive distributions applicable to such
Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of Securities of such series have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article 11 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have
been made to Holders of Securities is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on the Securities. 
  
 Section 11.08. Relative Rights. 
  
 This Article 11 defines the relative rights of Holders of Securities and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall: 
  
 (i) impair, as between the Company and Holders of
Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities in accordance with their terms; 
  
 (ii) affect the relative rights of Holders of Securities and creditors of the Company other than their
rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or 
  
 (iii) prevent the Trustee or any Holder of Securities from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments otherwise
payable to Holders of Securities. 
  
 If the Company fails because
of this Article 11 to pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on a Security on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of Default. 
  
 Section 11.09. Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. 
  
 No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities shall be impaired by any act or failure
to act by the Company or by the failure of the Company to comply with this Indenture. 
  
 Section 11.10. Distribution or Notice to Representative. 
  
 Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative. 
  
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this
Article 11, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or other
Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount


  

 47 







 
thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 11. 
  
 Section 11.11. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 11 or any other provision of
this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the
Securities, unless the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office at least three Business Days prior to the date of such payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations with respect to the Securities to
violate this Article 11. Only the Company or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this Article 11 shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with
the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. 
  
 Section 11.12. Authorization to Effect Subordination. 
  
 Each Holder of Securities, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination as provided in this Article 11, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any
proceeding referred to in Section 6.09 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Securities.

  
 Section 11.13. Trustee’s Fees Not Subordinated. 
  
 Nothing in this Article 11 will apply to amounts due to the Trustee pursuant
to Section 7.07. 
  
 ARTICLE 12. 
  
 SECURITY GUARANTEES 
  
 Section 12.01. Applicability of this Article. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof,
the provisions of this Article 12 will be applicable to any series of Securities which is to be guaranteed by one or more Guarantors. 
  
 Section 12.02. Guarantee. 
  
 Subject to this Article 12, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of Securities of a particular
series as to which it is a 

  

 48 







 
Guarantor 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 of such series or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series will be promptly paid in full when due, whether
at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series, 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 of such series or any of such
other obligations, that 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 Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
  
 Subject to this Article 12, the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally,
agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities of a series or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any
Holder of the Securities of such series 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. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, 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 Security Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities of such series and this Indenture.

  
 If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or
otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Security
Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
  
 Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.
Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, 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 6 hereof for the
purposes of this Security 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 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Security Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek
contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Security Guarantee. 
  

 49 







 Section 12.03. Subordination of Security Guarantee. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) hereof, the Obligations of each Guarantor under any
series of Securities which are to be guaranteed pursuant to this Article 12 shall be junior and subordinated to the Senior Debt of such Guarantor with respect to such series of Securities on the same basis as the Securities are junior and
subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company with respect to such series of Securities. For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, the Trustee and the Holders shall have the right to receive and/or retain payments by any of the Guarantors only at
such times as they may receive and/or retain payments in respect of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture, including Article 11 hereof. 
  
 Section 12.04. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 
  
 Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Securities of a series, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the
Security Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent
applicable to any Security Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving
effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in
respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 12, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Security Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  
 Section 12.05. Release of Guarantors. 
  
 The Security Guarantee of a Guarantor with respect to any series of
Securities will be released under the circumstances specified for such series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.03(a) hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 13. 
  
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 Section 13.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. 
  
 Except as otherwise contemplated by 2.03(a) hereof, this Indenture will cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified by the Company, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, will execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series when: 
  
 (a) either: 
  
 (i) all Securities of such series that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities of such series that have been replaced or paid and Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited
in 

  

 50 







 
trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
  
 (ii) all Securities of such series that have not been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of
any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the such Securities not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

 
 (b) the Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor has paid or caused to be
paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
  
 (c) the
Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor has delivered an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied or waived. 
  
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money
shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section 13.01, the provisions of Sections 13.02 and 8.06 hereof shall survive. 
  
 Section 13.02. Application of Trust Money. 
  

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof shall be held in
trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of a series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any
money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 13.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, the Company’s obligations and, if applicable, any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01
hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Securities of such series because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 [If applicable, insert – The Securities of this series will be represented by one or more Global Securities registered in the name of
                    , (the “Depositary”), or a nominee of the Depositary. So long as the Depositary, or its nominee, is the
registered holder and owner of this Global Security, the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the Securities for all purposes under the Indenture. The Global Security may be transferred, in
whole and not in part, only to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary. The Depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the respective principal amounts of the Securities represented by such Global
Security to the accounts of institutions that have accounts with the Depositary or its nominee (“participants”). Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of those ownership interests will be

unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Global. Security or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) the Company in its discretion at any
time determines not to have all of the Securities of this series represented by the Global Security and notifies the Trustee thereof, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities. Any Security that
is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence is exchangeable only for Securities of this series.]

tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture (which addition, change or elimination may apply to one or more series of Securities), provided that, any such addition, change or elimination set forth in clause (i) above
(A) shall neither (x) apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (y) modify the rights of the Holder of any such Security with
respect to such provision or (B) shall become effective only when there is no such outstanding Security.

Securities; (e) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary; and (f) except as permitted by the Indenture, any applicable Security Guarantee
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 or any Guarantor or any Person acting on its behalf shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under such
Guarantor’s Security Guarantee. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Company, all outstanding Securities will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not
enforce this Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to

power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Securities notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is
in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its
consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Securities. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with
this Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
  
 10. 10. Trustee Dealings with Company. 
  
 The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the
Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
  
 11. 11. No Recourse Against Others. 
  
 A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or
the Guarantors under the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release
are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities. 
  
 12. 12. [If applicable, insert – Guarantees.
