kept at the Corporate Trust Office and hereby appoints the Trustee as its registrar and transfer agent (Bond Registrar) to keep such books and to make such registrations and transfers under such reasonable regulations as the
Trustee may prescribe.

(b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Bond at the Corporate Trust Office, the Issuer shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate .and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations in the aggregate principal amount which the registered owner is

(c) The
Trustee shall require payment by the Holder or its transferee of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration, registration of transfer or exchange. Such charges and

be secured by this Indenture and shall be entitled to all of the security and benefit hereof to the same extent as the Bonds surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(d) No transfer of a Bond shall be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the Act), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer is to be made, the Trustee or the Issuer may require (i) an Opinion of Counsel

pursuant to an exemption, describing the



9



---

applicable exemption and the basis therefor, and that such transfer is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Issuer, and
(ii) that the transferee shall execute an investment letter in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuer certifying to the Issuer the facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee
or the Issuer. The Holder of a Bond by the acceptance of such Bond pursuant to a transfer does thereby agree to indemnify the Trustee and the Issuer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance
with such federal and state laws.

Section 2.05. Execution, Authentication and Delivery.

(a) The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by an Authorized Officer under its corporate seal, which may be in facsimile form and
may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon, and attested by a separate Authorized Officer. The signature of any Authorized Officer on the Bonds may be manual or facsimile. Bonds bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were
at the time of execution of the Bonds Authorized Officers of the Issuer, and identified as an Authorized Officer hereunder, shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be authorized at the date of the
authentication and delivery of such Bonds or did not hold such offices at the date of such Bonds. The Bonds shall be dated as of the date of authentication.

(b) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Bonds executed by the Issuer
to the Trustee for authentication; and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Bonds as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

(c) No Bond shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Bond
a certificate of authentication, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, with such appropriate information included in such form, executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of a natural person authorized by the Trustee to execute such
certificate, and such certificate upon any Bond shall be conclusive, and the only evidence, that such Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Bonds.

(a) If (i) any mutilated Bond is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Bond, and (ii) there is delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee such security and indemnity as may be reasonably required by each of them to hold each of them harmless (including a lost instrument bond), then,
in the absence of written notice to the Issuer or the Trustee that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and, upon its request, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Bond, a new Bond of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided, however, that if any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Bond shall have become or
shall be about to become due and payable, then, instead of issuing a new Bond, the Issuer may pay such Bond without surrender thereof, except that any mutilated Bond shall be surrendered. If, after the delivery of such new Bond or payment of a



10



---

destroyed, lost or stolen Bond pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Bond in lieu of which such new Bond was issued presents for payment such
original Bond, the Issuer, and the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such new Bond (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such new Bond from such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled

(d) The average bid price for the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days prior to the

Section 8.02. General Requirements.

(a) In the event of a partial Redemption, such Redemption shall be made pro rata among the Holders of the Bonds by redeeming from each

(c) All amounts held by the Trustee or Issuer due to non-presentment of Bonds on any Redemption Date must be paid over to and retained by the
Trustee for a period of at least one (1) year after the final maturity date or applicable Redemption Date. If after one (1) year any Bond has not been presented for payment, the Holder of such Bond shall thereafter, as an unsecured general
creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof.

Section 8.03. Payment of Redemption Price.

Payment of the Redemption Price shall be made by the Trustee to or upon the order of the Holder of the Bonds called for Redemption upon
surrender of the Bond to the Trustee. The Trustee shall enter a notation on the Bond Register of the amount of any partial Redemption of a Bond. The Redemption Price shall be payable to the Bondholders by check (or if the necessary information is

date on which the Holders right to convert the Bond will terminate, and the manner and place where the Bond may be surrendered for Conversion (as defined in Article IX hereof).

(c) Failure to give notice of Redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Bond selected for Redemption shall not impair or affect
the validity of the Redemption of any other Bond.

Section 8.05. Bonds Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of Redemption having been given, the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed shall, on the applicable Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price and (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price, in which event the Bond shall remain in full force and effect until the Redemption Price is paid in full) no interest shall accrue on such
Redemption Price for any period after such Redemption Date.

Section 8.06. Redemption at the Option of the Bondholders.

(a) The Holders of the Bonds may tender Bonds or portions thereof to the Trustee for repurchase by the Issuer at a price of one hundred percent
(100%) of the principal amount thereof plus accrued but unpaid interest to the date of payment for such repurchase; provided such tender is made at any time on or after January 2,1999. Such tenders will be accepted by the Trustee on a
first-come, first-served basis. The Issuer shall only be obligated to honor tenders in any one calendar year up to a total principal amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Original Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount, commencing with
calendar 1999. All tenders received by the Trustee on the same Business Day shall be deemed to have been received simultaneously. In the event that tenders are received on a Business Day which, when added to all prior tenders exceed the obligation
of the Issuer to honor such tenders, the Trustee shall notify the Issuer of the amount of such tenders. The Issuer shall have fifteen (15) days following such notice to either (i) agree in writing to honor all such tenders or
(ii) advise the Trustee to pro-rate such tenders. If the Issuer shall not make an election in writing within the period provided, the Trustee shall pro-rate such tenders.

(b) The Trustee shall give notice to the Issuer of all tenders for repurchase within five (5) Business Days after the Trustees
receipt thereof. Provided that the Issuer shall not have previously repurchased the maximum principal amount of Bonds provided for by subsection (a) hereof, the Issuer shall have forty-five (45) days to deposit with the Trustee the
outstanding principal amount of the Bond, Bonds or part of a Bond tendered for repurchase plus accrued but unpaid interest through and including the date of such deposit, at which time the Issuers obligation to pay, and the Bondholders
right to receive, interest on such principal amount shall cease, provided that the Issuer shall have deposited the amount due within such forty-five (45) day period. Failure of the Issuer to make such deposit within the time permitted shall be
an Event of Default under Article XIV hereof.

(c) In the event that the Trustee is required to pro-rate excess Bonds tendered for
repurchase, such pro-ration shall be performed as set forth in Section 8.02; and notice of pro-ration shall be given to the tendering Holders pursuant to Section 8.04.

(d) After the Issuer has deposited sufficient funds with the Trustee to repurchase the maximum amount of Bonds which it shall be obligated to
repurchase hereunder, the Issuer shall not have any obligation or liability to any Holder purporting to tender Bonds for its refusal to repurchase any such Bonds.

Section 8.07. Release of Collateral Following Redemption.

Upon completion of any Redemption of Bonds pursuant to this Article VIII, the Issuer may deliver to the Trustee an Issuer Order directing the
Trustee to sell so much of the Collateral as would equal, at the maturity of the instrument or instruments constituting the Collateral, the principal amount of the Bonds so redeemed. By way of example only, if the Issuer has redeemed one million
dollars ($1,000,000) principal amount of Bonds and the Holders have been paid the full Redemption Price plus interest, then the Issuer may direct the Trustee to sell zero-coupon treasury securities having a maturity face amount of one million
dollars ($1,000,000). Upon sale of such securities, the net proceeds thereof shall be payable to the Issuer. In the event that the



21



---

zero-coupon treasury securities constituting the Collateral cannot be segregated to match the principal amount of Bonds redeemed, then the Trustee shall sell so many of such securities as it may,
such that the maturity face amount of the securities remaining as part of the Collateral is greater than the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds.

ARTICLE IX

Section 9.02. Exercise of Conversion Privilege.

In order to exercise the Conversion privilege, the Holder shall surrender the Bond, Bonds or portion thereof to be converted to the Trustee at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, with the Conversion Notice on the reverse of the Bond certificate fully completed. Bonds shall be convertible in principal amounts of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or more, unless the remaining principal
balance of such Bonds shall be less than such sum, in which event such Bond must be converted in its entirety. As soon as practicable after the receipt of such documents, the Trustee shall request the Issuer to deliver at said offices to the Holder,
or on his written order, to a third party, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon the Conversion of the Bonds or portion thereof. The Issuer shall not issue fractional interests in shares of its
Common Stock upon Conversion of the Bonds and shall settle such interests in accordance with Section 9.03. Such Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the documents
deliverable upon Conversion of the Bonds are received by the Trustee. At such time



22



---

the rights of the Holder as such Holder shall cease and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Conversion Stock shall be issuable upon such
conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares of Conversion Stock represented thereby.

Section 9.03.
Adjustment for Fractional Shares.

No fractional shares of Conversion Stock or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of the Bonds. Any
fractional shares of Conversion Stock less than one-half (1/2) shall be disregarded, and fractional interests of one-half (1/2) or more of a share of Conversion Stock shall be rounded up to a full share.

Section 9.04. Adjustment of Conversion Rate and the Conversion Stock.

(a) The initial Conversion Rate and the number of shares of reserved Conversion Stock shall be based upon Five Million (5,000,000) shares
of Common Stock currently outstanding and shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(i) If the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Date of Execution is increased by a stock dividend or other distribution of securities to the Issuers stockholders for consideration per share less than the Companys book value
per share determined as of the Companys most recent audited balance sheet or without consideration (other than a distribution of rights to purchase securities for cash) payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of
shares of Common Stock, then, immediately following the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, said other distribution, subdivision or split-up, the number of shares of Conversion
Stock issuable upon Conversion of the Bonds and the Conversion Rate shall be appropriately adjusted so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on Conversion of the Bonds shall be increased and the Conversion Rate decreased in proportion
to such increase of outstanding shares.

(ii) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the
Date of Execution is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, immediately following the record date for such combination, the number of shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon Conversion of the Bonds and the
Conversion Rate shall be appropriately adjusted so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on Conversion of the Bonds shall be decreased and the Conversion Rate shall be increased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

(iii) If any consolidation or merger of the Issuer with or into another entity, or the sale of all or substantially all of its
assets to another entity shall be effected, or in case of any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Issuer, then, as a condition of such consolidation, merger or sale, reorganization or reclassification of the
capital stock of the Issuer, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer

immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of the Bonds, such shares of stock, or of securities, interest or assets (other than cash) as may be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore so receivable by the Holder had such consolidation, merger, sale, reorganization or reclassification not taken place,
and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Rate) shall thereafter be
applicable, as nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock, securities, interests or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such Conversion rights.

(iv) Any and all shares of Conversion Stock issued pursuant to a Conversion of the Bonds shall (unless covered by an effective
public registration statement) bear a legend reflecting that such shares of Conversion Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act, or under any state securities law, and cannot be transferred by sale, pledge or otherwise, except in
compliance with such securities laws and all regulations thereunder. As a condition to the issuance of Conversion Stock, the Holder requesting to so convert the Bonds shall execute appropriate investment letters and other documents as may be
reasonably required by the Issuer and its counsel to assure that the shares of Conversion Stock are issued only in compliance with applicable securities laws.

(v) Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, the Issuer covenants to duly reserve such additional number of shares of Common
Stock as may be necessary to fulfill its obligations hereunder, and to take such further actions as may be required in order to fulfill its obligations pursuant to this Article IX.

(b) Except under the circumstances set forth in paragraph (a) above, there shall be no adjustment in the Conversion Rate or the
Conversion Stock or other property receivable by the Holder upon any Conversion.

(c) Upon the occurrence of any event described in
paragraph (a) above, the Issuer shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers Certificate describing the event and its effect on the Conversion Rate and the Conversion Stock, and the Trustee shall mail a copy of such Certificate to each
Holder within fifteen (15) Business Days after its receipt of such Certificate. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for preparing or the accuracy or completeness of such Certificate.

ARTICLE XIII

THE
TRUSTEE

Section 13.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default
of which the Trustee receives notice under Section 13.02:

(i) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are
specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no others and no implied covenants or obligations of the Trustee shall be read into this Indenture.

(ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee shall, however, examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture but need not verify the accuracy of the contents thereof or whether the procedures specified by or pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture have been followed in the preparation thereof.

(c) Subject to 13.01(a), the Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own gross negligent action, its own gross negligent failure to
act, or its own willful misconduct or bad faith, except that:

(i) This paragraph does not limit the effect of these
subsections (b) and (c) (ii) hereof.



31



---

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

(iii) The Trustee shall be liable with respect to any action it takes in bad faith in accordance with a direction received by
it pursuant to Sections 14.04, 14.06 or 14.15.

(d) Except with respect to Sections 13.01 and 13.02, which shall not be limited by this
Section 13.01(d), for all other purposes under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Event of Default described in Section 14.01(c) or 14.01(d) or any Default described in Section 14.01(e) unless a
Responsible Officer assigned to and working in the Trustees Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice from the Issuer or any Holder of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default is received by the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Bonds generally, the Issuer, any Trust Estate or this Indenture and specifies the nature of the Event of Default.

(e) 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; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not refuse or fail to perform any of its duties hereunder solely as a result of nonpayment of its normal fees and expenses and further provided that nothing in this Section 13.01(e) shall
be construed to limit the exercise by the Trustee of any right or remedy permitted under this Indenture or otherwise in the event of the Issuers failure to pay the Trustees fees and expenses pursuant to Section 13.07. In determining
that such repayment or indemnity is not reasonably assured to it, the Trustee must consider not only the likelihood of repayment or indemnity by or on behalf of the Issuer but also the likelihood of repayment or indemnity from amounts payable to it
from the applicable Trust Estate pursuant to Sections 7.01 and 13.07.

(f) Notwithstanding any extinguishment of all right, title and
interest of the Issuer in and to the Trust Estate following a Default and a consequent declaration of acceleration of the Maturity of the Bonds, whether such extinguishment occurs through a sale of the Trust Estate to another Person, the acquisition
of the Trust Estate by the Trustee or otherwise, the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to the Trust Estate (or the proceeds thereof) and the Holders of the Bonds and the rights of the Bondholders shall continue to be governed by

Default or Event of Default hereunder except for Events of Default described in Sections 14.01(a) and (b) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall be notified in writing of the Default or Event of Default, specifying the nature of the
Default or Event of Default, by the Issuer .or any Holder, or by a judicial order delivered to the Responsible Officer of the Trustee or unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default.

the Trustee shall transmit by registered class mail to the Issuer and all Holders of Bonds, as their names and addresses appear on the Bond Register, a notice of such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless the Trustee has been
notified in writing by an Opinion of Counsel that such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived by the date such notice is to be mailed. The Trustee shall have no obligation to verify the factual basis underlying such Opinion of
Counsel and may conclusively rely upon such Opinion of Counsel.

(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 Bondholders, pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Bondholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security and/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, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may

situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any cause, the Issuer by an Issuer Order shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If within one year after such

(a) Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and the retiring
Trustee an instrument 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on request of the Issuer 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 subject nevertheless to its lien,
if any, for compensation and reimbursement provided for in Section 13.07. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver any and all instruments for more fully vesting in and confirming to such successor
Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article XIII.

Trustee.

any merger or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including an express assumption of the obligations of the Trustee under this
Indenture), shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article XIII, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto. In case any Bonds have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Bonds so authenticated

Trustee all such rights, powers and trust.

Section 13.13. Right of Trustee To Pay Taxes and Other Charges.

In case any tax, assessment, governmental or other charge upon any part of the Collateral is not paid as required herein, the Trustee may pay
such tax, assessment, governmental or other charge, without prejudice, however, to any rights of the Trustee or the Holders arising in consequence of such failure; and any amount at any time so paid under this Section 13.13, with interest
thereon from the date of payment at the rate determined by the Trustee, shall become so much additional indebtedness secured by this Indenture, and the same shall be given a preference in payment over any of the Bonds, and shall be paid out of the
proceeds or revenues collected from the Collateral, if not otherwise caused to be paid; but the Trustee shall not be under any obligation to make any such payment unless it shall have been requested to do so by the Holders of at least twenty-five
percent (25%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds and shall have been provided with adequate funds for the purpose of such payment.

Section 13.14. Co-Trustees and Separate Trustees.

(a) It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including particularly the law of the
State of New York) denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the
enforcement thereof on the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, or in case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein or therein granted
to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein Granted, or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Trustee may appoint, with notice to the Bondholders, an additional individual or
institution as a separate or Co-Trustee, in which event each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or
conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or Co-Trustee, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or Co-Trustee shall run to and be enforceable by
either of them.

(b) Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the separate or Co-Trustee so
appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall, on request, be
executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. In case any separate or Co-Trustee, or a successor to either, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations of such separate or Co-Trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new Co-Trustee or successor to such separate or Co-Trustee. Any Co-Trustee previously appointed by the
Trustee pursuant to this Section 13.14 may be removed by the Trustee, or by the Bondholders to the same extent they may remove the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.10, in which case all powers, rights and remedies vested in the Co-Trustee
shall again vest in the Trustee as if no such appointment of a Co-Trustee had been made.

Whenever it is acting as a paying agent for the Bonds, the Trustee shall comply with all requirements of the Code, and all regulations
thereunder, with respect to the withholding from any payments made on such Bonds of any withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any reporting requirements in connection therewith. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person
from any payment to any Holders of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Holder for all purposes of this Indenture.

Section 13.16. Actions of Trustee.

The
Trustee shall not take any affirmative actions which will impair the interests of the Bondholders in the Collateral.

Section 13.17. Construction of
Indenture.

The Trustee may construe any of the provisions of this Indenture insofar as the same may appear to be ambiguous or
inconsistent with any other provisions hereof, and such construction by the Trustee of any such provisions thereof in good faith shall be binding upon the Issuer and the Holders.

percent (50%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds the Trustee shall, declare the principal amount of all Bonds to be immediately due and payable, by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by
Bondholders representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds) and, upon any such declaration, such Bonds, in an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Bonds, together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the date of such acceleration, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. Such declaration, however, shall not in and of itself require the Trustee to make any distributions under Section 14.09. In
addition, upon such declaration the Trustee may, and upon direction by the Holders as provided in Section 14.15 hereof, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 13.01(a), exercise all other rights granted to it hereunder or such of those
rights as may be specified by the direction of such Bondholders; provided, however, that nothing herein shall obligate the Trustee to advance its own funds. All monies received by the Trustee as a result of actions taken by reason of an Event of

Section 14.09 hereof.



41



---

(b) The provisions of the preceding paragraph are subject to the condition that, at any time
after a declaration of acceleration of the principal amount of the Bonds has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders representing
more than fifty percent (50%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(ii) All Defaults and Events of Default then continuing, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Bonds which have
become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 14.16.

(c) No such rescission and amendment
shall extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon.

Trustee.

Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, then and in every such case the Trustee may, subject to the
provisions of Section 14.15 hereof, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Bondholders by such appropriate Proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights,

following:



42



---

(i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then due and payable
on the Bonds under this Indenture, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Trust Estate or Collateral securing the Bonds monies adjudged due and payable;

(ii) sell the Trust Estate or Collateral securing the Bonds or any portion thereof or rights or interests therein, at one or
more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law or this Indenture;

(iii) institute
Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate or Collateral securing the Bonds;

(iv) by action or suit in equity require the Issuer to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the
Bondholders;

(v) by action or suit in equity enjoin any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the
Bondholders;

(vi) exercise any remedies it may have as the secured party hereunder or under the UCC or otherwise and take
any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds; and

(vii) exercise all other rights granted to the Trustee hereunder or by law.

(b) The power to effect any sale of any portion of the Trust Estate or Collateral pursuant and subject to this Section 14.04 is also
subject to Section 14.06 and shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales as to any portion of such Trust Estate remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate or Collateral shall have been sold or all amounts
payable on the Bonds secured under this Indenture shall have been paid. The Trustee may from time to time postpone any public sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. The Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any
amount fixed by law as compensation for any sale, and shall receive in lieu thereof, the compensation provided by Article XIII hereof.

(c) To the extent permitted by law, the Trustee shall not in any private sale sell or otherwise dispose of the Trust Estate, or any portion
thereof, securing the Bonds which have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default, unless:

(i) the
Holders representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds consent to, or direct the Trustee to make such sale,

(ii) the proceeds of such sale would be not less than the entire amount which would be distributable to the Holders of the
Bonds, in full payment thereof in accordance with Section 14.09, and be sufficient to pay the sums due the Trustee hereunder on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such sale, or



43



---

(iii) the Trustee determines, in its sole discretion, that the conditions for
retention of such Trust Estate set forth in Section 14.06(a)(i) and (iii) cannot be satisfied (in making any such determination, the Trustee may obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm as provided in
Section 14.06(b)), and the Holders of Bonds representing at least two-thirds (66-2/3%) of the then Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds consent to such sale.

(d) Upon a declaration of acceleration as provided in Section 14.02, but subject to the provisions of Sections 14.04(b) and 14.06, by
notice in writing to the Issuer, the Trustee may, subject to applicable state and federal law, sell the Collateral assigned as security hereunder, in whole or in part, through one or more public or private sales, in such manner as the Trustee in its
sole discretion deems appropriate. The Collateral may be sold in its entirety, in one transaction, in portions or from time to time as the Trustee deems appropriate; provided, however, that at such time as the Trustee receives proceeds from the sale
of Collateral, net of all costs and expenses in connection therewith, in an amount equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of the Bonds plus accrued interest thereon to a date sixty (60) days after it has received such proceeds, it
need not, but may, make further sales of the Collateral. Nothing in the preceding sentence however, shall be construed as limiting or restricting the Trustees right to sell the Collateral and/or collect proceeds from such sales in an amount in
excess of such amount. The Trustee shall give the Issuer twenty (20) days written notice of any proposed sale or other disposition of the Collateral, with a copy thereof to be delivered to each Holder. The Trustee shall use reasonable
efforts to complete any sale of the Collateral in a timely fashion. Proceeds from such sale shall be applied by the Trustee in accordance with Section 15.09. In addition, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on
behalf of the Issuer as its attorney-in-fact, or otherwise, any and all documents or instruments and to do or accomplish all acts or things that are necessary or appropriate to effect the sale of the Collateral.

(e) The Issuer and the Trustee acknowledge that the Trustee may be unable to effect a sale to the public of all or any part of the Collateral
by reason of certain prohibitions or restrictions in federal or state laws and regulations, and therefore may be compelled to resort to one or more sales to a restricted group of purchasers in a negotiated sale. The Issuer and the Trustee also
acknowledge that a negotiated sale may not provide for maximum realization on the value of the Collateral. The Issuer agrees that any sale so made may be at prices and terms less favorable than if the Collateral were sold to the public. The Issuer
agrees that such negotiated sales, whether for cash or credit, made under the foregoing circumstances shall not be deemed for that reason to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have used
reasonable efforts to obtain the best price from the sale of the Collateral consistent with the need to provide for prompt payment of the Bonds following a declaration of acceleration. The Trustee is authorized to comply with any restriction or
limitation as it may be advised by an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee is necessary or desirable in order to avoid any required approval by any government or regulatory board or officer, and it is agreed that such compliance shall not result in
such sale being considered to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner, nor shall the Trustee be liable or accountable to the Issuer or any Bondholder by reason of the fact that the proceeds obtained at such sale are less than what might
otherwise have been obtained, provided the Trustee has met the requirements of this Section 14.04.



44



---

(f) The Trustee may bid for and acquire any portion of the Collateral in connection with the
public sale thereof and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by paying the net sale price, after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and of any Proceedings in connection therewith, into the Trust
Estate for application pursuant to Section 14.09. The Bonds need not be produced in order to complete any such sale or in order for the net sale price to be credited against such Bonds. The Trustee may hold, lease, operate, manage or otherwise
deal with any property so acquired in any manner permitted by law.

(g) All monies received from the sale of Collateral pursuant to this
Article XIV, after payment of all fees and expenses in connection therewith, shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Debt Service Fund for application as provided in Section 14.09.

(h) The Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of such Trust
Estate in connection with a sale thereof;

(i) The Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to
transfer and convey the Issuers interest in any portion of such Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such sale; and

(j) No purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Trustees authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any
conditions precedent or determine the application of any monies.

Section 14.05. Other Rights and Remedies.

(a) In addition to its rights and remedies otherwise granted by this Article XIV following an Event of Default, but subject to Sections
14.04(b) and 14.06, the Trustee may exercise all rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC and take whatever other action at law or in equity which appears necessary or desirable to collect the amount then due and thereafter to
become due under this Indenture or the Collateral, to seek damages, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Issuer under this Indenture or the Bonds. Such actions include, but are not limited to,
obtaining the appointment of a receiver, injunction, specific performance and collecting all monies due or payable with respect to Collateral directly from the Persons obligated for such payments.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XIV, if an Event of Default has occurred as a result of an order or judgment
arising out of a Proceeding, which order or judgment prevents the application by the Trustee of the proceeds of one or more items of Collateral included in the Trust Estate, as provided in this Indenture, the Trustee may exercise one or more of the
remedies set forth in this Article XIV solely with respect to such item of such Collateral.



45

Section 14.06. Optional Preservation of Trust Estate.

(a) If the Bonds have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such acceleration has not been rescinded and annulled,
the Trustee may, in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, refrain from selling the Trust Estate securing the Bonds and may apply all distributions and other amounts receivable with respect to such Trust Estate to the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds as and when such principal and interest would have become due pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Bonds if there had not been an acceleration of the maturity of such Bonds,
provided that:

(i) the Trustee shall have determined that the distributions and other amounts receivable with respect to
the Trust Estate are sufficient to provide the funds required to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds as and when such principal and interest would have become due pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Bonds and
Trustee fees if there had not been an acceleration of the maturity of such Bonds;

(ii) the Holders of the Bonds shall not
have directed the Trustee in accordance with Section 14.15 (subject, however, to Section 14.04) to sell the Trust Estate securing such Bonds;

(iii) the Trustee shall have delivered written notice to the Issuer that it proposes to retain the Trust Estate in satisfaction
of the Issuers obligations hereunder and either twenty-one (21) days shall have elapsed from the date the notice was sent during which the Issuer shall have failed to object in writing to the Trustees taking such action or the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an agreement in writing consenting to the Trustees taking such action pursuant to this Section 14.06.

(b) The Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm of national reputation as to the
feasibility of any action proposed to be taken in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 14.06 and as to the sufficiency of the distributions and other amounts receivable with respect to the Trust Estate securing the Bonds to make
the required payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, which opinion shall be conclusive evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency.

(c) Until the conditions of clauses (i) through (iii) of subsection (a) of this Section 14.06 are satisfied with respect
to the Bonds that have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default or until the Trustee determines to take the action specified in said subsection (a), all amounts collected by the Trustee with respect to the Bonds pursuant to this
Article XIV or otherwise shall be applied in accordance with Section 14.06(a) and thereafter shall be applied in accordance with Section 14.09; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall have acquired the entire Trust Estate securing the
Bonds by purchasing it at any public or private sale conducted pursuant to Section 14.04, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, apply all distributions and other amounts receivable with respect
to such Trust Estate pursuant to Section 14.06(a), if the Trustee determines that the conditions set forth in Section 14.06(a)(i) and (iii) are satisfied and if the Trustee obtains an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that:
(i) such Trust Estate will not as a result of such action be deemed an



46



---

association taxable as a corporation under the Code and (ii) notwithstanding the acquisition of such Trust Estate by the Trustee, the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to
such Trust Estate (or the proceeds thereof) and the related Bondholders, and the respective rights of such Bondholders shall continue to be governed by the terms of this Indenture.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, if the Bonds have been declared due and payable, then the Trustee may, in its
sole discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, retain the Trust Estate securing the Bonds without compliance with this Section 14.06 and apply all distributions and other amounts receivable with respect to such Trust Estate to
the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds as and when such principal and interest would have become due pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Bonds if there had not been an acceleration of the maturity of the Bonds;
provided, however, that if the Trustee is unable to make the determination required by Section 14.06 (a) (i), in respect of which determination the Trustee may act pursuant to Section 14.06(b), any money held or collected by the
Trustee with respect to the Bonds shall be applied pursuant to Section 14.09.

Section 14.07. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, composition or other
judicial Proceeding relative to the Trust Estate, the Issuer, or any other obligor upon any of the Bonds or the property of the Trust or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the Bonds shall then be due and
payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of any overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to:

remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section
14.14. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Bond 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 XIV or by law to the Trustee or to the Bondholders

(c) in actions
which deprive the Trustee or any Holder of a lien upon any of the Collateral or the Trust Estate.

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 14.17. Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Bond 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, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of

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 or therein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and

Any of the foregoing may, by notice given hereunder to each of the others, designate any further or different
addresses to which subsequent notices, certificates, requests or other communications shall be sent hereunder.

Section 17.05. Notices and Reports to
Bondholders; Waiver of Notices.

(a) If this Indenture provides for notice to Bondholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if delivered by telegraph, telecopy, telex or other similar communications or in writing and mailed, first-class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to each Bondholder
affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Bond Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Bondholders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Bondholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Bondholders. Any notice which is given in the manner herein provided
shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given whether or not actually received by such Bondholder.

(b) If this Indenture
provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Bondholders shall
be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

(c) If regular mail service is suspended as a result of a strike, work stoppage, act of God, or similar activity, the Trustee shall deem it
impractical to mail notice of any event to Bondholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

Section 17.06. Rules by Trustee and Agents.

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for any meeting of Bondholders. Any Agent may make reasonable rules and set reasonable requirements for
its functions.

Section 17.07. Effect of Heading and Table of Contents.

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 17.08. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer or the Trustee shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.

Section 17.09. Separability.

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

Section 17.10. Benefits of Indenture.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Bonds, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their
successors hereunder and the Bondholders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 17.11. Legal
Holidays.

If any Payment Date, Redemption Date or any other date on which principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Bond is
proposed to be paid or the date upon which any report is to be given hereunder shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Bonds or this Indenture) the payment or report need not be made on such date, but may be
made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the nominal date of any such Payment Date, Redemption Date, or other date for the payment of principal of or interest on any Bond or date for a report hereunder,
as the case may be, and no interest shall, accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

Section 17.12. Governing Law.

In view of the fact that Bondholders are expected to reside and maintain offices in many states and the desire to establish with certainty that
this Indenture will be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the law of a state having a well-developed body of commercial and financial law relevant to transactions of the type contemplated herein, this Indenture, each
Supplement, if any, and each Bond shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed herein. Any action or proceeding of any kind brought upon or with respect to
this Indenture shall be brought in the appropriate state or federal court in New York County, New York,

Section 17.13. Counterparts.

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 17.14. Issuer Obligation.

No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, against the Trustee or any incorporator, subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder,
officer, director or employee of the Trustee or any predecessor or successor of the Trustee with respect to the Issuers obligations with respect to the Bonds or the obligation of the Issuer or the Trustee under this Indenture or any
certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 17.15. Inspection.

The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Trustee, during the Issuers normal business
hours, to examine all of the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent Accountants selected by the Trustee, and to discuss its affairs,
finances and accounts with its officers, employees and Independent Accountants (and by this provision the Issuer hereby authorizes its Accountants to discuss with such representatives such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such reasonable
times and as often as may be reasonably requested. Any expense incident to the exercise by the Trustee of any right under this Section shall be borne by the Issuer.

Section 17.16. Alternate Payment Provisions.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or of any of the Bonds to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with the
relevant paying agent and any Bondholder providing for a method of payment by such paying agent to such Holder that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payment. The Issuer will furnish to the paying agent a copy of
each such agreement and the paying agent will cause payments to be made in accordance with such agreements. Such agreements, however, shall not be binding upon any successor paying agent without the prior written consent of such successor paying
agent.

Section 17.17. Usury.

The
amount of interest payable or paid on any Bond under the terms of this Indenture shall be limited to an amount which shall not exceed the maximum nonusurious rate of interest allowed by the applicable laws of the United States or the State of New
York (whichever shall permit the higher rate), which could lawfully be contracted for, charged or received (the Highest Lawful Rate). In the event any payment of interest on any Bond exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the Issuer stipulates
that such excess amount will be deemed to have been paid as a result of an e on the part of both the Trustee, acting on behalf of the Bondholder, and the Issuer, and



61



---

the Ho receiving such excess payment shall promptly, upon discovery of such error or upon notice the from the Issuer or the Trustee, refund the amount of such excess or, at the option of the
Trustee, apply the excess to the payment of principal of such Bond, if any, remaining unpaid. In addition, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of Bondholders for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law and subject the terms thereof, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread through the full term of such Bonds.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer and the Trustee have caused this Indent to be duly executed by their respective officers thereunto duly
authorized and duly attested, to hereunto affixed, as of the day and year first above written.
