On June 17, 2026, Viatris Inc. ("Viatris" or the "Company") completed a public offering of €650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.250% Senior Notes due 2033 (the "Notes"). The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Viatris. The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Mylan Inc., Mylan II B.V. and Utah Acquisition Sub Inc. (the "Guarantors").

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering (i) to fund the repayment of any amounts borrowed under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility in June 2026 in connection with the repayment at maturity of the entire $1.675 billion of outstanding principal amount of the 3.950% Senior Notes due 2026 issued by Utah Acquisition Sub Inc. (the "2026 Senior Notes") and (ii) the remainder, if any, to replenish cash that will be utilized in connection with the repayment of the 2026 Senior Notes, with such cash to be used for general corporate purposes.

The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture (the "Base Indenture"), dated June 17, 2026, among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture (the "Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Base Indenture, the "Indenture"), dated June 17, 2026, among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee (which includes the form of Notes as an exhibit). The offering of the Notes was registered on a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-287087). The Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 4.250% per annum, accruing from June 17, 2026, payable annually beginning June 17, 2027, and will mature on June 17, 2033, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

At any time prior to April 17, 2033 (the date that is two months prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the ''Par Call Date''), the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior written notice, at a price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (2) the sum of the present values, as calculated by the Company, of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the redemption date on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association), at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate (as defined in the Indenture) plus 25 basis points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

If certain change of control events occur, the Company must offer to purchase the Notes from holders at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes.

------

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company's ability and the ability of certain of the Company's subsidiaries to (1) enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions; (2) create certain liens; (3) with respect to such subsidiaries only, guarantee certain of the Company's outstanding obligations without also guaranteeing the Company's obligations under the Notes; and (4) with respect to the Company only, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the Company's consolidated assets. The Indenture provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants, payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. These covenants and events of default are subject to a number of important qualifications, limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture. Upon occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes may be declared, and/or become, due and payable immediately.

The above description of the Indenture and the Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture and the form of the Notes filed as exhibits hereto, which exhibits are incorporated by reference herein.

Each party agrees as follows for the benefit of the other parties and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities.

ARTICLE I<br> DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

*Section 1.01. Definitions.*

"*Additional Securities*" means, with respect to a series of Securities, additional Securities of such series (other than the Initial Securities of such series) issued hereunder from time to time in accordance with Sections 2.02 and 2.18, as part of the same or a different series as the Initial Securities of such series.

"*Affiliate*" means, with respect to any specified Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, "control" when used with respect to any specified Person means the power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms "controlling" and "controlled" have meanings correlative to the foregoing. No Person (other than the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company) in whom a Receivables Entity makes an Investment in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction will be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries solely by reason of such Investment.

"*Agent*" means any Registrar, co-Registrar or Paying Agent.

"*amend*" means amend, modify, supplement, restate or amend and restate, including successively; and "*amending*" and "*amended*" have correlative meanings.

"*Attributable Debt*" in respect of a Sale Leaseback Transaction means, as at the time of determination, the present value (discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease, compounded annually) of the total obligations of the lessee for rental payments during the remaining term of the lease included in such Sale Leaseback Transaction (including any period for which such lease has been extended); *provided*, *however*, that if such Sale Leaseback Transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, the amount of Indebtedness represented thereby will be determined in accordance with the definition of "Capital Lease Obligations."

"*Attributable Receivables Indebtedness*" at any time means the principal amount of Indebtedness which (i) if a Qualified Receivables Transaction is structured as a secured lending agreement, would constitute the principal amount of such Indebtedness or (ii) if a Qualified Receivables Transaction is structured as a purchase agreement, would be outstanding at such time under the Qualified Receivables Transaction if the same were structured as a secured lending agreement rather than a purchase agreement.

"*Bankruptcy Law*" means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar U.S. Federal or state law, the Netherlands Bankruptcy Act (*Faillissementswet*) or law of any other jurisdiction relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or relief of debtors.

*Section 2.03. Execution and Authentication.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its chairman of the Board of Directors, chief executive officer, chief financial officer, controller or assistant controller, president or any vice president, any treasurer or any assistant treasurer, secretary or any assistant secretary or any other officer designated in an Officer's Certificate. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or electronic. Typographic and other minor defects in any electronic signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security which has been authenticated and delivered to the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If an Officer whose signature is on a Security was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) 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 set forth in Section 2.04(a) executed by the Trustee by manual or electronic signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.13, 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Securities shall be issuable only in fully registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to Securities of any series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities and, if not previously delivered, a supplemental indenture or Company Order as contemplated by Section 2.02 setting forth the terms of the Securities of a series. The Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities without any further action by the Company. The Company Order shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Securities is to be authenticated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In authenticating the Securities of any series for original issuance and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall receive and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each prepared in accordance with Section 12.03, stating that the conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been complied with.

Such Opinion of Counsel shall further state:

<br> (1) that the form of such Securities has been established by a supplemental indenture or by or pursuant to a Company Order in accordance with Sections 2.01 and 2.02 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

<br> (2) that the terms of such Securities have been established in accordance with Sections 2.01 and 2.02 and in conformity with the other provisions of this Indenture; and

------

<sup>(3)</sup> that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights from time to time in effect and to general equity principles, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver the Securities under this Section 2.03 if the issue of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities or this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to the Securities of such series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.01 and of this Section 2.03, if all of the Securities of any series are not to be originally issued at the same time, then the documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 2.03 must be delivered only once prior to the authentication and delivery of the first Security of such series.

*Section 2.04. Forms of Certificate of Authentication.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Trustee's certificates of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

*Section 2.05. Registrar and Paying Agent.*

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the "*Registrar*"), an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the "*Paying Agent*") and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Company, if any, in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more additional Paying Agents. The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional Paying Agent.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement, which shall incorporate the provisions of the TIA, with any Agent that is not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with Section 7.06.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar, Paying Agent and Agent for service of notices and demands in connection with the Securities and this Indenture, and the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as the office or agency of the Company for such purposes, and the Company may change the Paying Agent without prior notice to the Holders. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent.

*Section 2.06. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust.*

Each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities (whether such money has been paid to it by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities), and the Company and the Paying Agent shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities) in making any such payment. Money held in trust by the Paying Agent need not be segregated except as required by law and in no event shall the Paying Agent be liable for any interest on any money received by it hereunder; *provided* that if the Company or an Affiliate thereof acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold such money in a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require the Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2), upon written request to the Paying Agent, require the Paying Agent to pay forthwith all money so held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon making such payment, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

*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 the Holders of each series of Securities. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least five 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; *provided* that, as long as the Trustee is the Registrar, no such list need be furnished.

*Section 2.08. Transfer and Exchange.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) When Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request from the Holder of such Securities to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other authorized denominations of the same series, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or 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 its attorney duly authorized in writing. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall issue and execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate, new Securities evidencing such transfer or exchange at the Registrar's request. No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange. The Company may require from the Holder payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer taxes or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange, but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.12, 3.07 or 8.04 (in which events the Company shall be responsible for the payment of such taxes). The Registrar shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Security of any series for a period of 15 days immediately preceding the redemption of Securities of such series, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer or exchange of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar, any co-Registrar or any of their agents may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for all purposes whatsoever, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar, any co-Registrar or any of their agents shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In case a Successor Company has executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee, any of the Securities authenticated or delivered pursuant to such transaction may, from time to time, at the request of the Successor Company, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the Successor Company with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise identical to the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of the Successor Company, shall authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a Successor Company pursuant to this Section 2.08 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such Successor Company, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time outstanding for Securities authenticated and delivered in such new name.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder's Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) None of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

*Section 2.09. Replacement Securities.*

If a mutilated Security of any series is surrendered to the Registrar or the Trustee, or if the Holder of a Security of any series claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security of such series if the Holder of such Security furnishes to the Company and the Trustee evidence reasonably acceptable to them of the ownership and the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on the date of this Indenture are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond shall be posted, sufficient in the judgment of all to protect the Company, the Trustee or any Paying Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Security is replaced. The Company may charge such Holder for the Company's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in replacing such Security and the Trustee may charge the Company for the Trustee's expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements) in replacing such Security. Every replacement Security shall constitute a contractual obligation of the Company.

*Section 2.10. Outstanding Securities.*

The Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for (a) those canceled by it, (b) those delivered to it for cancellation, (c) to the extent set forth in Sections 9.02 and 9.03, on or after the date on which the conditions set forth in Section 9.02 or 9.03 have been satisfied, those Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered by the Trustee hereunder and (d) those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.11, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or one of its Affiliates holds the Security.

------

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Security is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company.

If the Paying Agent holds, in its capacity as such, on any Maturity Date, money sufficient to pay all accrued interest and principal with respect to the Securities payable on that date and is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders thereof pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Securities cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

For each series of Original Issue Discount Securities, the principal amount of such Securities that shall be deemed to be outstanding and used to determine whether the necessary Holders have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02. The principal amount of a Security denominated in a Foreign Currency that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount calculated pursuant to Section 2.20(b).

*Section 2.11. Treasury Securities.*

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a series have concurred in any declaration of acceleration or notice of default or direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, Securities owned by the Company or any other Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded as though they were not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent or any amendment, modification or other change to this Indenture, only Securities as to which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actually received an Officer's Certificate stating that such Securities are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee established to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to the Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company, any other obligor on the Securities or any of their respective Affiliates.

*Section 2.12. Temporary Securities.*

Until definitive Securities are prepared and ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Any such temporary Security may be in the form of one or more Global Securities, representing all or a portion of the Securities of such series. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. Until such exchange, temporary Securities shall be entitled to the same rights, benefits and privileges as definitive Securities.

Upon any exchange of a portion of a temporary Global Security for a definitive Global Security or for the Individual Securities represented thereby pursuant to this Section 2.12 or Section 2.08, the temporary Global Security shall be endorsed by the Trustee to reflect the reduction of the principal amount evidenced thereby, whereupon the principal amount of such temporary Global Security shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed.

*Section 2.13. Cancellation.*

The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation along with a Company Order directing the cancellation thereof. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or credit against any sinking fund. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall deliver such canceled Securities to the Company. The Company may not reissue or resell, or issue new Securities to replace Securities that the Company has redeemed or paid, or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (other than in accordance with this Indenture).

------

*Section 2.14. Defaulted Interest.*

If the Company defaults on a payment of interest on the Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, *plus* (to the extent permitted by law) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, in accordance with the terms hereof, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at least five Business Days prior to the payment date. The Company shall fix such special record date and payment date in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. At least 10 days before such special record date, the Company shall deliver in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The Company may make payment of any defaulted interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements (if applicable) of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this sentence, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

*Section 2.15. Identifying Number.*

The Company in issuing the Securities of a series may use a "CUSIP," "ISIN" or other similar number, and if so, such CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number shall be included in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; *provided* that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number printed in the notice or on the Securities of such series, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities of such series. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number used by the Company in connection with the issuance of Securities of a series and of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar number.

*Section 2.16. Deposit of Moneys.*

Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date and Maturity Date, the Company shall have deposited with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, in a timely manner which permits the Trustee to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The principal and interest on a Global Security shall be payable to the Depositary of such Global Security or its nominee, as the case may be, as the sole registered owner and the sole Holder of the Securities represented thereby. The principal and interest on Individual Securities shall be payable, either in person or by mail, at the office of the Paying Agent.

*Section 2.17. Global Securities.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.02 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Global Securities or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect, or such other legend(s) as the Company and the Depositary may agree:

"THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF THE DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, WHICH MAY BE TREATED BY THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE AND ANY AGENT THEREOF AS OWNER AND HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY FOR ALL PURPOSES.

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF [THE DEPOSITARY] TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF [THE NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY] OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF [THE DEPOSITARY] (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO [THE NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY] OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF [THE DEPOSITARY]), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, [THE NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY], HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

------

TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY."

The aggregate principal amount of each Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Security Custodian, as provided in this Indenture. Any endorsements of a Global Security to reflect the amount of increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities of the series represented thereby shall be made by the Security Custodian in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Security Custodian.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Depositary designated pursuant to Section 2.02 for a Global Security in registered form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as such Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Members of, or direct or indirect participants in, the Depositary ("*Agent Members*") shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Security Custodian under such Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar and any of their agents as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar or any of their agents from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization (which may be in electronic form) furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of an owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Security. The Holder of a Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) None of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Securities, for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial owner interests, or for any acts or omissions of a Depositary or for any transactions between a Depositary and any beneficial owner or between or among beneficial owners. No owner of a beneficial interest in the Securities shall have any rights under this Indenture, and the Depositary or its nominee, if any, shall be deemed and treated by the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them as the absolute owner and holder of such Securities for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Registrar, any Paying Agent or any agent of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary, or any of its members and any other Person on whose behalf such member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a beneficial owner of any Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities will not be entitled to receive Individual Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Individual Securities shall be issued to all owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security in exchange for such interests if: (A) at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 2.17(b) and, in each case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice, or (B) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee and the Registrar an Officer's Certificate stating that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable.

------

In connection with the exchange of an entire Global Security for Individual Securities pursuant to this subsection (e), such Global Security shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Individual Securities of such series, shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Individual Securities of authorized denominations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Security will be entitled to receive an Individual Security in exchange for such interest if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt by the Security Custodian and Registrar of instructions from the Holder of a Global Security directing the Security Custodian and Registrar to (x) issue one or more Individual Securities in the amounts specified to the owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Security and (y) debit or cause to be debited an equivalent amount of beneficial interest in such Global Security, subject to the rules and regulations of the Depositary:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Security Custodian and Registrar shall notify the Company and the Trustee of such instructions, identifying the owner and amount of such beneficial interest in such Global Security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Company shall promptly execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Individual Securities of such series, shall authenticate and deliver to such beneficial owner Individual Securities in an equivalent amount to such beneficial interest in such Global Security; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Security Custodian and Registrar shall decrease such Global Security by such amount in accordance with the foregoing. In the event that the Individual Securities are not issued to each such beneficial owner promptly after the Registrar has received a request from the Holder of a Global Security to issue such Individual Securities, the Company expressly acknowledges, with respect to the right of any Holder to pursue a remedy pursuant to Section 6.07, the right of any beneficial Holder of Securities to pursue such remedy with respect to the portion of the Global Security that represents such beneficial Holder's Securities as if such Individual Securities had been issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to a series of Securities, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Global Security for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Individual Securities of such series on such terms as are acceptable to the Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) to each Person specified by such Depositary a new Individual Security or new Individual Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) to such Depositary a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Individual Securities delivered to Holders thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) In any exchange provided for in clauses (1) through (3), the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Individual Securities in registered form in authorized denominations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Upon the exchange in full of a Global Security for Individual Securities, such Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Individual Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In the event that Individual Securities of a series are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities of such series in accordance with this Section 2.17, on or after such event when Individual Securities of such series are presented by a Holder to the Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of such Individual Securities to a person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of Individual Securities only; or (y) to exchange such Individual Securities for an equal principal amount of Individual Securities of such series of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if the requirements for such transaction under this Indenture are satisfied; *provided*, *however*, that the Individual Securities presented or surrendered for register of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment form and, if applicable, a transfer certificate, each in the form included in the supplemental indenture or Company Order authorizing the applicable Securities, and in each case in a form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) In the event that Individual Securities of a series are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities of such series and, thereafter, the events or conditions specified in Section 2.17(e)(1) or (2) which required such exchange shall cease to exist, the Company shall send notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of Securities of such series stating that such Holders may exchange Individual Securities of such series for interests in Global Securities of such series by complying with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and briefly describing such procedures and the events or circumstances requiring that such notice be given. Thereafter, if Individual Securities of such series are presented by a Holder to the Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of such Individual Securities to a person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security of such series; or (y) to exchange such Individual Securities for an equal principal amount of beneficial interests in a Global Security of such series, which beneficial interests shall be owned by the Holder transferring such Individual Securities, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested by canceling such Individual Security and causing, or directing the Security Custodian to cause, the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Security to be increased accordingly and, if no such Global Security is then-outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Global Security of such series in accordance with Section 2.03; *provided*, *however*, that the Individual Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed and accompanied by an assignment form and, if applicable, a transfer certificate, each in the form included in the supplemental indenture or Company Order authorizing the applicable Securities, and in each case in a form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities shall prohibit the sale or other transfer of any Securities (including beneficial interests in Global Securities) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

*Section 2.18. Issuance of Additional Securities.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) After the initial issue date of a series of Securities, the Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Securities of such series, which Additional Securities shall have identical terms as the Initial Securities of such series, other than with respect to the date of issuance and the amount of the issue price. All the Securities of a series issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase with respect to such series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With respect to any Additional Securities of a series, the Company shall set forth in a Company Order, which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Securities to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number of such Additional Securities; *provided*, *however*, that no Additional Securities of a series may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Securities to not be fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with any other Securities of such series issued under this Indenture, unless such Securities bear a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number.

------

*Section 2.19. Computation of Interest.*

Interest on the Securities shall be computed in accordance with the terms of the Securities of a series as specified pursuant to Section 2.02.

*Section 2.20. Currency of Payments in Respect of Securities.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.02 for any series of Securities, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on Securities of such series will be made in U.S. Dollars.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of any provision of this Indenture where the Holders of outstanding Securities may perform an action that requires that a specified percentage of the Securities of all series perform such action and for purposes of any decision or determination by the Trustee of amounts due and unpaid for the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Securities of all series in respect of which moneys are to be disbursed ratably, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency will be the amount in U.S. Dollars based upon exchange rates, determined as specified pursuant to Section 2.02 for Securities of such series, as of the date for determining whether the Holders entitled to perform such action have performed it or as of the date of such decision or determination by the Trustee, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any decision or determination to be made regarding exchange rates shall be made by an agent appointed by the Company; *provided* that such agent shall accept such appointment in writing and the terms of such appointment shall, in the opinion of the Company at the time of such appointment, require such agent to make such determination by a method consistent with the method provided pursuant to Section 2.02 for the making of such decision or determination. All decisions and determinations of such agent regarding exchange rates shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company, the Trustee and all Holders of the Securities.

*Section 2.21. Judgments.*

The Company may provide pursuant to Section 2.02 for Securities of any series that (a) the obligation, if any, of the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of any series in a Foreign Currency or U.S. Dollars (the "*Designated Currency*") as may be specified pursuant to Section 2.02 is of the essence and agrees that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, judgments in respect of such Securities shall be given in the Designated Currency; (b) the obligation of the Company to make payments in the Designated Currency of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other Currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the Designated Currency that the Holder receiving such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other Currency (after any premium and cost of exchange) on the business day in the country of issue of the Designated Currency or in the international banking community (in the case of a composite currency) immediately following the day on which such Holder receives such payment; (c) if the amount in the Designated Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and (d) any obligation of the Company not discharged by such payment shall be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect.

ARTICLE III<br> REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

*Section 3.01. Applicability of Right of Redemption.*

Notice given to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.02 may, at the Company's discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent. Failure to give such notice, or any defect in such notice, shall not affect the sufficiency of any notice of redemption sent to the Holder of any Security of such series.

------

*Section 3.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities To Be Redeemed.*

If the Company elects to redeem less than all of the Securities of any series at any time, in the case of Securities issued in definitive form, the Trustee will select Securities of such series by lot on a *pro rata* basis (or, in the case of Global Securities, the Securities will be selected in accordance with the applicable procedures of the relevant Depositary) unless an alternative method of selection is otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange or Depositary requirements.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

The Company will redeem Securities of $2,000 or less in whole and not in part. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.

*Section 3.04. Notice of Redemption.*

The Company will cause notices of redemption to be sent by electronic transmission or by first-class mail at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities of the series to be redeemed at its registered address or otherwise in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) if fewer than all outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date and upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of the applicable series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) that unless the Company defaults in the payment of the applicable Redemption Price, interest on Securities called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) if such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more conditions precedent, the nature of such conditions precedent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) the paragraph of the Securities and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities called for redemption are being redeemed; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities.

At the Company's written request made at least five Business Days prior to the date on which notice is to be given, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's sole expense.

If the Redemption Price is not ascertainable on the date on which the notice of redemption is delivered, the Company shall send to the Trustee, at least one Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price.

*Section 3.05. Effect of Notice of Redemption.*

Once the notice of redemption described in Section 3.04 is delivered, except as provided in the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 3.04, Securities called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price, including any premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the Redemption Price, including any premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; *provided* that (a) if the Redemption Date is on or after a regular record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, shall be paid to the Holder in whose name the Security is registered at the close of business on such regular record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Securities are subject to redemption by the Company; and (b) if a Redemption Date is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the period from such Redemption Date to such succeeding Business Day. Such notice, if delivered in the manner provided in Section 3.04, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given whether or not the Holder receives such notice. Failure to give notice, or any defect in such notice to the Holder of any Security of a series designated for redemption, in whole or in part, shall not affect the sufficiency of any notice of redemption with respect to the Holder of any other Security of such series.

*Section 3.06. Deposit of Redemption Price.*

On or prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds money in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as provided pursuant to Section 2.02) sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on that date which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation.

On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on Securities called for redemption shall have been made available in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph, the Securities called for redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of such Securities will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price of and, subject to Section 3.05, accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. If any Security surrendered for redemption shall not be so paid because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest will be paid, from the Redemption Date until such redemption payment is made, on the unpaid principal of the Security and any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate and in the manner provided in the Securities.

*Section 3.07. Securities Redeemed in Part.*

If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Security will state the portion of the principal amount thereof that is to be redeemed. The Company will issue a new Security of the applicable series in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Security in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Security; except that if a Global Security is so redeemed, the balance of such Global Security shall be reduced in accordance with Section 2.17. Securities called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for such redemption on the Redemption Date.

*provided*, *however*, that the liquidation of any Subsidiary of the Company into the Company or another Subsidiary of the Company, other than as part of a credit reorganization, shall not constitute an Event of Default under this Section 6.01(8);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) the occurrence of any other Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series as provided in Section 2.02.

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, if the principal or any premium or interest on any Security is payable in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars and such Currency is not available to the Company for making payment thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to Holders of the Securities by making such payment in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollars equivalent of the amount payable in such other Currency, as determined by the Company's agent in accordance with Section 2.20 by reference to the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such Currency ("*Exchange Rate*"), as such Exchange Rate is reported or otherwise made available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the date of such payment, or, if such rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Exchange Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. Dollars where the required payment is in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture.

------

*Section 6.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission.*

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any series of Securities, if an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(8) and 6.01(9) with respect to the Company) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities of such series may declare to be immediately due and payable the principal amount of all of the Securities of such series then outstanding, plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of acceleration. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(8) and 6.01(9) with respect to the Company shall occur, such amount with respect to all the Securities shall become automatically due and payable immediately without any further action or notice. However, a notice of Default or notice of continuing Event of Default (including any declaration of acceleration) with respect to the Securities of any series may not be given with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders of the Securities of such series, more than two years prior to such notice. After any such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration is obtained by the applicable person, the registered Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series may cancel such acceleration if (i) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and (ii) if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal, that has become due solely because of the acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Subject to Section 7.01, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities of any series, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security and/or indemnity to its satisfaction. Subject to Section 7.06, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of any series of Securities then outstanding will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power the Trustee holds with respect to the Securities of such series.

For all purposes under this Indenture, if a portion of the principal of any Original Issue Discount Securities shall have been accelerated and declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions hereof, then, from and after such declaration, unless such declaration has been rescinded and annulled, the principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Securities shall be deemed, for all purposes hereunder, to be such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, and payment of such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, together with interest, if any, thereon and all other amounts owing thereunder, shall constitute payment in full of such Original Issue Discount Securities.

*Section 6.03. Other Remedies.*

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of each applicable series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of each applicable series or this Indenture and may take any necessary action requested of it as Trustee to settle, compromise, adjust or otherwise conclude any proceedings to which it is a party.

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. Any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee may be brought in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative, to the extent permitted by law. Any costs associated with actions taken by the Trustee under this Section 6.03 shall be reimbursed to the Trustee by the Company.

------

*Section 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults and Events of Default.*

Provided the Securities of a series are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series may on behalf of the Holders of all the affected Securities of such series waive any past Default with respect to such series of Securities and its consequences by providing written notice thereof to the Company and the Trustee, except a Default (1) in the payment of interest on or the principal of any Security or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected. In the case of any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of the applicable series will be restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, respectively; *provided* that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

*Section 6.05. Control by Majority.*

The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of a series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of the affected Securities not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of the Securities.

*Section 6.06. Limitation on Suits.*

No Holder of the Securities of a series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for any remedy hereunder, unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding for 60 days after the Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series have made a written request, and offered to the Trustee reasonable security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it to institute such proceeding as Trustee; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Trustee has not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series a direction that is inconsistent with such request.

However, the Holder of any Security will have an absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, such Security on or after the date or dates they are to be paid as expressed in such Security and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment.

*Section 6.07. Rights of Holders To Receive Payment.*

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on such Security (including in connection with an offer to purchase) or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment, on or after the due date expressed in the Securities shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder of a Security, and each owner of a beneficial interest in a Security, shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree that the release of any Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture shall not impair the right of such Holder or owner to receive any payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on such Security, and each such Holder and each such owner, by acquiring any interest in a Security, thereby consents to any such release and waives any and all claims against the Trustee, the Company and any Guarantor in connection with such release.

*Section 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.*

If an Event of Default in payment of principal, premium or interest specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities) for the whole amount of unpaid principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid.

------

*Section 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.*

The Trustee may 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 any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law, shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same after deduction of its charges and expenses to the extent that any such charges and expenses are not paid out of the estate in any such proceedings and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceedings. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

*Section 6.10. Priorities.*

Any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI, and any money or other property distributable in respect of the Company's obligations under this Indenture after an Event of Default shall be applied in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee (including any predecessor Trustee) for amounts due under Section 7.06;

SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the affected Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest as to each, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the affected Securities; and

THIRD: to the Company.

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

*Section 6.11. Undertaking for Costs.*

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

*Section 6.12. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.*

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy occurring upon an 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 VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

ARTICLE VII<br> TRUSTEE

*Section 7.01. Duties of Trustee.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it under this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein).

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of clause (b) or (d) of this Section 7.01;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, determined as provided herein, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) 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 satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.01.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Trustee shall not be responsible for the application of any money by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee.

------

*Section 7.02. Rights of Trustee.*

Subject to Section 7.01:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document (whether in its original or electronic form) believed in good faith by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a board resolution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may require an Officer's Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel (or both), which shall comply with the requirements of Section 12.03, and, in the absence of bad faith on its part, may conclusively rely upon such Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel (or both). The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records, and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of such Default or Event of Default from the Company or any Holder is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer's Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer's Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer's Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Anything in this Indenture notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), even if the Trustee has been advised as to the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, any provision of any law or regulation or any act of any Governmental Authority, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) The permissive right of the Trustee to take or refrain from taking action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

*Section 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee.*

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for or otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate thereof with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b)(1) of the TIA, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign; *provided*, *however*, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA §310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest of participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA §310(b)(1) are met, other than the fact that such indentures are not described herein.

Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.09.

*Section 7.04. Trustee's Disclaimer.*

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity, sufficiency or adequacy of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Securities or the proceeds thereof. The Trustee shall not be responsible to make any calculation with respect to any matter under this Indenture. The Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder. The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or investigate the Company's compliance with or the breach of, or cause to be performed or observed, any representation, warranty or covenant made in this Indenture.

*Section 7.05. Notice of Defaults.*

Within 90 days after the occurrence thereof, and if known to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02(j), the Trustee shall give to the Holders of the Securities of a series notice of each Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series known to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02(j), by transmitting such notice to Holders at their addresses as the same shall then appear on the register of the Securities kept by the Registrar, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of a series when and as the same shall become payable, or to make any sinking fund payment as to the Securities of a series (including payments pursuant to a redemption or repurchase of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture), the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

*Section 7.06. Compensation and Indemnity.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall pay to the Trustee and Agents from time to time such reasonable compensation for their services hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as shall be agreed upon in writing. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee and Agents upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by them in connection with the Trustee's duties under this Indenture, including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and external counsel, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its willful misconduct or negligence.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall fully indemnify each of the Trustee and their officers, agents and employees and any predecessor Trustee for, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or performance of its duties under this Indenture including the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder (including, without limitation, settlement costs). The Trustee or Agent shall notify the Company in writing promptly of any claim of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice at its Corporate Trust Office asserted against the Trustee or Agent for which it may seek indemnity; *provided* that the failure by the Trustee or Agent to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Company has been materially prejudiced thereby. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that a conflict of interest exists or potential harm to the Trustee's business exists, the Trustee may have separate counsel, which counsel must be reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Company shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company need not reimburse the Trustee for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability to have been incurred by the Trustee through its own willful misconduct or negligence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) To secure the payment obligations of the Company in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee and such money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee, Agents and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee, Agents and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be the liability of the Company and the lien provided for under this Section 7.06 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the satisfaction, discharge or other termination of this Indenture for any reason, including any termination or rejection hereof under any Bankruptcy Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) In addition to, but without prejudice to its other rights under this Indenture, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(8) or Section 6.01(9) occurs, the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) For purposes of this Section 7.06, the term "Trustee" shall include any predecessor Trustee; *provided*, *however*, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights or any other Trustee hereunder.

*Section 7.07. Replacement of Trustee.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee's acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.07.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company in writing no later than 30 calendar days prior to the date of the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may remove the Trustee by notifying the Company and the removed Trustee in writing no later than 30 calendar days prior to the date of the proposed removal and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Company's written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company may remove the Trustee at its election if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief entered with respect to the Trustee under Bankruptcy Law;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction, in the case of the Trustee, for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.09, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately following such delivery, the retiring Trustee shall, subject to the lien and its rights under Section 7.06, transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall transmit notice of its succession to each Holder. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.07, the lien and Company's obligations under Section 7.06 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

*Section 7.08. Successor Trustee by Consolidation, Merger, etc.*

*Section 7.09. Eligibility; Disqualification.*

The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee (together with its corporate parent) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); *provided*, *however*, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA §310(b)(1) are met, other than the fact that such indentures are not described herein.

*Section 7.10. Reports by Trustee to Holders.*

If required by TIA § 313(a), within 60 days after June 15 of any year, commencing on the first June 15 after the issuance of Securities pursuant to this Indenture, for so long as Securities of any series remain outstanding, the Trustee shall send to the Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within the 12 months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b). The Trustee shall also transmit all reports as required by TIA § 313(c) and comply with TIA § 313(d).

------

*Section 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.*

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

*Section 7.12. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.*

The Trustee may appoint an agent (the "*Authenticating Agent*") reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities, and the Trustee shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent. Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder.

Each Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $100.0 million (together with its corporate parent) as set forth in the most recent applicable published annual report of condition and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Article VII, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article VII.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Article VII, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.12, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 7.12.

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 7.12.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) secure any series of Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) establish the form and terms of Securities of any series as permitted in Section 2.02, or authorize the issuance of Additional Securities of a series previously authorized or add to the conditions, limitations or restrictions on the authorized amount, terms or purposes of issue, authentication or delivery of the Securities of any series, as herein set forth, or other conditions, limitations or restrictions thereafter to be observed;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or any Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) conform the text of this Indenture, any supplemental indenture, the Securities or the Guarantees to the extent a provision hereof or thereof was intended to be a substantially verbatim recitation of the applicable provision under the caption "Description of Debt Securities" or "Description of Notes" (or comparable section) contained in the applicable registration statement, prospectus, prospectus supplement, free-writing prospectus or offering memorandum;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture and/or Guarantee with respect to the Securities of any series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture with respect to one or more series of Securities, so long as any such addition, change or elimination not otherwise permitted under this Indenture shall (A) neither 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 modify the rights of the Holders of any such Security with respect to the benefit of such provision or (B) become effective only when there is no such Security outstanding;

Upon the written request of the Company accompanied by a board resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture, in which case the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

*Section 8.02. With Consent of Holders.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may modify or amend this Indenture as it applies to a series of Securities with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series affected by the modification or amendment (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Securities of such series), and any past default or compliance with any provisions of this Indenture relating to a series of Securities may also be waived (except a default in the payment of principal, premium or interest and a default under clause (b) of this Section 8.02) with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) However, no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of each Holder of Securities of a series affected thereby:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) extend the due date of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, the Securities of such series, or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) materially adversely affect the economic terms of any right to convert or exchange any Security as may be provided pursuant to Section 2.02;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) reduce the principal amount of, or any premium or interest rate on, the Securities of such series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) change the place or currency of payment of principal of, or any premium or interest on, the Securities of such series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Security of such series;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the Securities of such series after the due date thereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of such series, the consent of whose Holders is required for modification or amendment of this Indenture, for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Holders of a majority of the principal amount of then outstanding Securities of any series may waive future compliance with certain restrictive covenants of this Indenture applicable to such series of Securities. The Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of then outstanding Securities of a series may waive any past default under this Indenture with respect to such series, except a failure by the Company to pay the principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Securities of such series or a provision that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of all outstanding Securities of such series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of a series of Securities have concurred in any direction, notice, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in conclusively relying on any such direction, notice, waiver or consent, only Securities that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned will be so disregarded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment that requires the consent of the Holders of the affected Securities becomes effective, the Company shall transmit to each registered Holder of the affected Securities at such Holder's address appearing in the security register a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all Holders of such Securities, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment.

Upon the written request of the Company accompanied by a board resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the receipt by the Trustee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 8.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture, in which case the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

------

*Section 8.03. Revocation and Effect of Consents.*

After an amendment, supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing consent conclusive and binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same Security or portion thereof, and of any Security issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any such Security. However, any such Holder of a Security or subsequent Holder of a Security may revoke the consent as to its Security if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been obtained.

*Section 8.04. Notation on or Exchange of Securities.*

If an amendment, supplement, or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Company) shall request the Holder of the Security (in accordance with the specific written direction of the Company) to deliver it to the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee shall place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company, in exchange for the Security, shall issue, and the Trustee shall authenticate, a new Security that reflects the changed terms. 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 8.05. Trustee To Sign Amendments, etc.*

The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article VIII if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee, the Trustee may, but need not, sign such amendment, supplement or waiver. In signing or refusing to sign such amendment, supplement or waiver the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Section 7.01, shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating, in addition to the matters required by Section 12.03, that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

*Section 8.06. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act.*

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

*Section 8.07. Effect of Execution of Supplemental Indenture.*

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of all of the Securities or of the Securities of any series affected, as the case may be, shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

ARTICLE IX<br> SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

*Section 9.01. Applicability of Article.*

Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any series of Securities, if provision is made for the defeasance of Securities of a series and if the Securities of such series are denominated and payable only in U.S. Dollars, then the provisions of this Article IX shall be applicable. Defeasance provisions, if any, for Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency may be specified pursuant to Section 2.02.

*Section 9.02. Satisfaction and Discharge of Liability on Securities; Defeasance.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities (except as to rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities and rights to receive principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities) as to all outstanding Securities of such series issued hereunder when:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all the Securities of such series that have been authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities which have been replaced or paid and Securities for whose payment money has been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from this trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) all Securities of such series not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation otherwise (i) have become due and payable, (ii) will become due and payable, or are to be called for redemption, within one year or (iii) have been called for redemption as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.02 for Securities of such series, and, in any case, the Company or 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 of such Securities, U.S. legal tender, U.S. Government Obligations 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 (including all principal and accrued interest) on the Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Company or any Guarantor has paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Securities of such series at maturity or on the Redemption Date, as the case may be.

In addition, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been complied with.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to clause (c) of this Section 9.02 and Section 9.03, the Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to the outstanding Securities of a series ("*Legal Defeasance*"). Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Securities of such series and the related Guarantees, and this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect as to all outstanding Securities of such series and the related Guarantees, except as to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the rights of Holders of such series of Securities issued under this Indenture to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the Company's obligations with respect to such series of Securities concerning issuing temporary Securities under Section 2.12, registration of Securities under Section 2.05, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities under Section 2.09, and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment under Section 2.05 and money for security payments held in trust under Section 2.06;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) the rights, powers, trust, duties, and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company's obligation in connection therewith; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) the applicable provisions of this Article IX.

In addition, the Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors released with respect to (A) their respective obligations under Sections 4.03 through 4.05 with respect to the outstanding Securities of a series, (B) the operation of Sections 6.01(5), (6), (7) or (8) (only as such clauses (7) or (8) apply to Significant Subsidiaries) and (C) if so specified pursuant to Section 2.02 with respect to Securities of a series, any other restrictive covenant added for the benefit of such series pursuant to Section 2.02 ("*Covenant Defeasance*") on and after the conditions in Section 9.03 with respect to Covenant Defeasance are satisfied, and thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to such Securities. The Company may exercise its Legal Defeasance option regardless of whether it previously exercised Covenant Defeasance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Securities of such series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 9.02, the Company's obligations in Sections 2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.17, 7.06, 9.06 and 9.07 shall survive with respect to such series of Securities until such time as the Securities of such series have been paid in full. Thereafter, the Company's obligations in Sections 7.06, 9.06 and 9.07 shall survive.

*Section 9.03. Conditions to Defeasance.*

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Securities of any series:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or other agent, as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series U.S. legal tender, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest) in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company, to pay the principal (including any mandatory sinking fund payments) of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of such series on the stated date for payment or on the Redemption Date of the principal or installment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such series of Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes solely as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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, which opinion must be based either on a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax laws or regulations occurring after the Issue Date, or the Company having received a ruling from, or published by, the Internal Revenue Service to that effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes solely as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) no Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness) or the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.03, the conditions set forth in the foregoing subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e) need not be satisfied so long as, at the time the Company makes the deposit described in subsection (a), (i) no Default under clauses (1), (2), (8) and (9) under Section 6.01 has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit and after giving effect thereto, and (ii) either (x) a notice of redemption has been transmitted providing for redemption of all the Securities of such series not more than 60 days after such transmission and the requirements for such redemption shall have been complied with or (y) the Stated Maturity of the Securities of such series will occur within 60 days. If the conditions in the preceding sentence are satisfied, the Company shall be deemed to have exercised its Covenant Defeasance option.

If the funds deposited with the Trustee or other agent to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities of the applicable series when due, then the Company's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture will be revived with respect to such series and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred.

*Section 9.04. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations To Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.*

All money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other agent pursuant to Section 9.03(a) in respect of the outstanding Securities of a series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee or other agent, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and accrued 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 or other agent against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 9.03(a) or the principal, premium, if any, 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 Securities.

Anything in this Article IX to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee or other agent shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon a request of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 9.03(a) which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee or other agent, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

*Section 9.05. Reinstatement.*

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 9.02 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or U.S. Governmental Authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company's obligations under this Indenture and the applicable Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article IX until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 9.02; *provided* that if the Company has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or accrued interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

*Section 9.06. Moneys Held by Paying Agent.*

In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon written demand of the Company, be paid to the Trustee, or if sufficient moneys have been deposited pursuant to Section 9.03(a), to the Company upon a request of the Company, and thereupon the Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

------

*Section 9.07. Moneys Held by Trustee.*

Any moneys deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or then held by the Company in trust for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Security that are not applied but remain unclaimed by the Holder of such Security for two years after the date upon which the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on such Security shall have respectively become due and payable shall be repaid to the Company upon a request of the Company, or if such moneys are then held by the Company in trust, such moneys shall be released from such trust; and the Holder of such Security entitled to receive such payment shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for the payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or the Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; *provided* that the Trustee or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Company either transmit to each Holder affected, at the address shown in the register of the Securities maintained by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.05, or cause to be published once a week for two successive weeks, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published each Business Day and of general circulation in the City of New York, New York, a 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 transmission or publication, any unclaimed balance of such moneys then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company or the release of any money held in trust by the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company for payment as general creditors unless applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.

*Section 9.08. Deposits of Non-U.S. Currencies.*

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article IX, if the Securities of any series are payable in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars, the Currency or the nature of the government obligations to be deposited with the Trustee under the foregoing provisions of this Article IX shall be as set forth in the Company Order or established in the supplemental indenture under which the Securities of such series are issued.

ARTICLE X<br> GUARANTEES

*Section 10.01. Guarantees.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any series of Securities, if any series of Securities is issued with the benefit of Guarantees, then the provisions of this Article X will be applicable to such Securities. Each reference in this Article X to a "Security" or the "Securities" refers to the Securities of the particular series as to which provision has been made for such Guarantees. If more than one series of Securities as to which such provision has been made are outstanding at any time, the provisions of this Article X shall be applied separately to each series.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Guarantor, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the Securities and obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, and guarantees to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, that (i) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities will be paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including, without limitation, the amount that would become due but for the operation of any automatic stay provision of any Bankruptcy Law), together with interest on the overdue principal, if any, and interest on any overdue interest, to the extent lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or of any such other obligations, the same will be 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, subject, however, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, to the limitations set forth in Section 10.03.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of Securities with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, 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.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for 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 or any other Person, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Guarantee of such Guarantor shall not be discharged as to any series of Securities, as the case may be, except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Securities, this Indenture and such Guarantee. Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Security, whether at its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against each of the Guarantors to enforce such Guarantor's Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company or any other Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, such Guarantor will pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company or any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or any Guarantor, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantee of each of the Guarantors, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between each Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) subject to this Article X, the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of the Guarantee of such Guarantor, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of the Guarantee of such Guarantor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company's assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities, whether as a "voidable preference," "fraudulent transfer" or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Securities shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

*Section 10.02. Severability.*

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

*Section 10.03. Limitation of Liability.*

Each Guarantor and by its acceptance hereof each Holder confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee by each such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law or the provisions of its local law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and each such Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount that will not, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to this Article X, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

------

*Section 10.04. Contribution.*

In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, *inter se*, that in the event any payment or distribution is made by any Guarantor under a Guarantee, such Guarantor will be entitled to a contribution from any other Guarantor in a *pro rata* amount based on the net assets of each Guarantor determined in accordance with GAAP.

*Section 10.05. Subrogation.*

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01; *provided*, *however*, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Company under this Indenture or the Securities shall have been paid in full.

*Section 10.06. Reinstatement.*

Each Guarantor hereby agrees (and each Person who becomes a Guarantor shall agree) that the Guarantee provided for in Section 10.01 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any obligations or interest thereon is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by a Holder to the Company upon the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or any Guarantor.

*Section 10.07. Release of a Guarantor.*

Any Guarantee issued by any Guarantor under this Indenture shall be automatically and unconditionally terminated and released, without any action on the part of the Trustee, any Holder of the Securities or any other person, upon:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) a sale or disposition of such Guarantor in a transaction that complies with this Indenture such that such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) with respect to any series of Securities, if the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option or its Covenant Defeasance option with respect to such series of Securities or if the Company's obligations under this Indenture are discharged with respect to such series of Securities in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) upon such Guarantor no longer being an issuer or guarantor in respect of (i) Mylan Notes that have an aggregate principal amount in excess of $500.0 million or (ii) any Triggering Indebtedness, in each case, other than in respect of Indebtedness or Guarantees, as applicable, that are being concurrently released; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) with respect to any series of Securities, upon receipt of the consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such series in accordance with Section 8.02.

*Section 10.08. Benefits Acknowledged.*

Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its respective Guarantee is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

ARTICLE XI<br> SINKING FUNDS

*Section 11.01. Applicability of Sinking Fund.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any series of Securities, redemption of Securities permitted or required pursuant to a sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series by the terms of such series of Securities shall be made in accordance with such terms of such series of Securities and this Article XI.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "*Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment*," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "*Optional Sinking Fund Payment*." If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 11.02.

*Section 11.02. Mandatory Sinking Fund Obligation.*

The Company may, at its option, satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, in whole or in part, with respect to a particular series of Securities by (a) delivering to the Trustee Securities of such series in transferable form theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company or redeemed at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 3.04 or (b) receiving credit for Securities of such series (not previously so credited) acquired by the Company and theretofore delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall credit such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation with an amount equal to the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment shall be reduced accordingly. If the Company shall elect to so satisfy any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation, it shall deliver to the Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date an Officer's Certificate, which shall designate the Securities (and portions thereof, if any) so delivered or credited and which shall be accompanied by such Securities (to the extent not theretofore delivered) in transferable form. In case of the failure of the Company, at or before the time so required, to give such notice and deliver such Securities, the Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation shall be paid entirely in moneys.

*Section 11.03. Optional Redemption at Sinking Fund Redemption Price.*

In addition to the sinking fund requirements of Section 11.02, to the extent, if any, provided for by the terms of a particular series of Securities, the Company may, at its option, make an Optional Sinking Fund Payment with respect to such Securities. Unless otherwise provided by such terms, (a) to the extent that the right of the Company to make such Optional Sinking Fund Payment shall not be exercised in any year, it shall not be cumulative or carried forward to any subsequent year, and (b) such optional payment shall operate to reduce the amount of any Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment obligation as to Securities of the same series. If the Company intends to exercise its right to make such optional payment in any year, it shall deliver to the Trustee not less than 45 days prior to the relevant sinking fund payment date an Officer's Certificate stating that the Company will exercise such optional right, and specifying the amount which the Company will pay on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. Such Officer's Certificate shall also state that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

*Section 11.04. Application of Sinking Fund Payment.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the sinking fund payment or payments made in funds pursuant to either Section 11.02 or 11.03 with respect to a particular series of Securities plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made in funds with respect to such series shall exceed $50,000 (or a lesser sum if the Company shall so request, or such equivalent sum for Securities denominated other than in U.S. Dollars), it shall be applied by the Trustee on the sinking fund payment date next following the date of such payment, unless the date of such payment shall be a sinking fund payment date, in which case such payment shall be applied on such sinking fund payment date, to the redemption of Securities of such series at the redemption price specified pursuant to Section 3.04. Upon written direction from the Company (which direction shall confirm the amount to be redeemed), the Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in Section 3.03, for redemption on such sinking fund payment date, a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such series to absorb said funds, as nearly as may be, and shall, at the expense and in the name of the Company, thereupon cause notice of redemption of the Securities to be given in substantially the manner provided in Section 3.04 for the redemption of Securities in part at the option of the Company, except that the notice of redemption shall also state that the Securities are being redeemed for the sinking fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied by the Trustee to the redemption of Securities of such series shall be added to the next sinking fund payment received in funds by the Trustee and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.04. Any and all sinking fund moneys held by the Trustee on the last sinking fund payment date with respect to Securities of such series, and not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such series, shall be applied by the Trustee to the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series on the Maturity Date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On or prior to each sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustee a sum equal to all interest accrued to but not including the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on such sinking fund payment date pursuant to this Section 11.04.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Trustee shall not redeem any Securities of a series with sinking fund moneys or send any notice of redemption of Securities of such series by operation of the sinking fund during the continuance of a Default in payment of interest on any Securities of such series or of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring as a consequence of this paragraph) of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice, except that if the notice of redemption of any Securities of such series shall theretofore have been sent in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall redeem such Securities if funds sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Article XI. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund at the time any such Default or Event of Default shall occur and any moneys thereafter paid into the sinking fund shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default, be held as security for the payment of all the Securities of such series; *provided*, *however*, that in case such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived as provided herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next sinking fund payment date on which such moneys are required to be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.04.

Such notices or communications shall be effective when actually received and shall be sufficiently given if so given within the time prescribed in this Indenture.

The Company, the Guarantors or the Trustee by written notice to the others may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

The Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions ("*Instructions*") given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; *provided*, *however*, that the Company and/or any Guarantor, as applicable, shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions ("*Authorized Officers*") and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Company and/or such Guarantor, as applicable, whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company and/or any Guarantor, as applicable, elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee's understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Company and any Guarantor understand and agree that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Company and any Guarantor shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Company, any Guarantor and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Company and/or such Guarantor, as applicable. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee's reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company and any Guarantor agree: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Company and/or such Guarantor, as applicable; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.

Any notice or communication transmitted to a Holder shall be transmitted to him or her at his or her address shown on the register kept by the Registrar.

Failure to transmit a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication to a Holder is transmitted in the manner provided above, it shall be deemed duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

If the Company transmits a notice or communication to Holders, it will transmit a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impossible to mail any notice as required by this Indenture, then such method of notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient mailing of such notice.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, as long as the Securities of a series are in the form of a Global Security, notice to the Holders of such series may be made electronically in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.

*Section 12.03. Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon any request or application by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, if so requested by the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his or her certificate, statement or opinion is based are erroneous. Any certificate, statement or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate, statement or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate, statement or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company or of counsel to the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to accounting matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an accountant or firm of accountants, unless such officer or counsel, as the case may be, knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the accounting matters upon which his or her certificate, statement or opinion may be based are erroneous.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

The Company will make payments in respect of the 2033 Notes represented by the Global 2033 Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder of the Global 2033 Note.

#### ARTICLE 3

#### Covenants
In addition to the covenants set forth in Article IV of the Base Indenture (for the avoidance of doubt, as modified by this Supplemental Indenture), the following additional covenants shall apply with respect to the 2033 Notes.

**Section 3.01. *Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest****.* The Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee of the 2033 Notes as provided herein, for the benefit of the 2033 Notes, will duly and punctually pay in euro the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the 2033 Notes in accordance with the applicable terms of the 2033 Notes, the Paying Agency Agreement and this Indenture. An installment of principal of, premium or interest on such 2033 Notes shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or a Paying Agent for such 2033 Notes (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds one Business Day prior to that date immediately available funds designated for and sufficient to pay such installment.

**Section 3.02. *Liens****.* The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Incur or permit to exist any Lien (the "**Initial Lien**") of any nature whatsoever on any of its properties (including Capital Stock held by the Company or such Subsidiary), whether owned on the Issue Date or thereafter acquired, securing any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company or a Domestic Subsidiary, other than Permitted Liens, without effectively providing that the 2033 Notes shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such indebtedness so secured for so long as such indebtedness is so secured.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lien securing the 2033 Notes or such Guarantee pursuant to this covenant shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release by all holders of the Initial Lien (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under the applicable indebtedness).

------

**Section 3.03. *Limitation on Sale Leaseback Transactions****.* Neither the Company nor any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company will enter into any Sale Leaseback Transaction with respect to any property *unless* (i) the Company or such Domestic Subsidiary would be entitled to create a Lien on such property securing Attributable Debt without equally and ratably securing the 2033 Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.02 hereof and (ii) the gross proceeds received by the Company or any such Domestic Subsidiary in connection with such Sale Leaseback Transaction are at least equal to the Fair Market Value of such property.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company may enter into a Sale Leaseback Transaction if (x) during the twelve months following the effective date of the Sale Leaseback Transaction, the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company applies an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of such sale or transfer and the Fair Market Value of the property that the Company or the applicable Domestic Subsidiary leases in the transaction to (i) the voluntary retirement of the 2033 Notes or other indebtedness of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company, provided that such indebtedness ranks pari passu or senior to the 2033 Notes or is indebtedness of a Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Guarantor, or (ii) the acquisition, purchase, construction, development, extension or improvement of any property or assets of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company used or to be used by or for the benefit of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary of the Company in the ordinary course of business, or (y) the Company or such Domestic Subsidiary equally and ratably secures the 2033 Notes as described in Section 3.02.

**Section 3.04.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event***.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs with respect to the 2033 Notes, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the 2033 Notes, each Holder shall have the right to require that the Company purchase all or any part (in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder's 2033 Notes pursuant to the offer described below (a "**Change of Control Offer**") on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer to purchase all of the 2033 Notes at a purchase price (the "**Change of Control Purchase Price**") in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount of the 2033 Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the "**Change of Control Purchase Date**"). If the Change of Control Purchase Date, however, is on or after a regular record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, will be paid to the person in whose name the note is registered at the close of business on such regular record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose notes are subject to purchase by the Company. Within 30 days after any Change of Control Repurchase Event with respect to the 2033 Notes or, at the Company's option, prior to such Change of Control Repurchase Event but after the related Change of Control is publicly announced (provided that a definitive agreement is in place for such Change of Control), the Company must cause written notice of the Change of Control Repurchase Event to be distributed to the Trustee, and the Trustee will then promptly forward such notice to each Holder of 2033 Notes, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at its address appearing in the security register or pursuant to applicable depositary procedures. The notice must state, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that a Change of Control Repurchase Event has occurred or may occur with respect to the 2033 Notes and the date of such event;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the purchase price and the purchase date which shall be fixed by the Company on a Business Day no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date the notice is sent, or such later date as is necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act; provided that the purchase date may not occur prior to, and the purchase date shall be extended (including to a date more than 60 days from the date the notice is sent) to, the closing of the Change of Control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that any 2033 Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price, any 2033 Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; other procedures that a Holder of 2033 Notes must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or to withdraw acceptance of the Change of Control Offer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Purchase Date, an electronic transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of 2033 Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the 2033 Notes purchased; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) that Holders whose 2033 Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new 2033 Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the 2033 Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to €1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof.

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of 2033 Notes in connection with a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 3.04, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.04 by virtue of such conflict.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all 2033 Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all 2033 Notes or portions thereof properly tendered and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (by book entry) the 2033 Notes properly accepted together with an Officer's Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of 2033 Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of 2033 Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Purchase Price for such 2033 Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly cause to be transferred by book entry to each Holder an interest in the 2033 Notes equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the 2033 Notes surrendered by such Holder, if any; *provided*, that each such 2033 Note shall be in a principal amount of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Purchase Date.

------

The Company may exercise its right to redeem all or a portion of the 2033 Notes, as described herein, even if a Change of Control Offer is made. The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event or to repurchase the 2033 Notes pursuant to this Section 3.04 if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 3.04 and all other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all 2033 Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) the Company has exercised the right to redeem all of the 2033 Notes as described herein.

**Section 3.05.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***2033 Note Guarantees***.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The 2033 Notes and the obligations of the Company under the Indenture shall initially be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Indenture (including, without limitation, Article X of the Base Indenture (for the avoidance of doubt, as modified by this Supplemental Indenture) and the provisions of this Section 3.05). For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee of the 2033 Notes shall be limited in amount to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the applicable Guarantor without rendering its Guarantee of the 2033 Notes, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Section 4.04 of the Base Indenture will apply to the 2033 Notes; provided that the provisions set forth below shall replace in its entirety the first paragraph of Section 4.04 of the Base Indenture:

"If any Subsidiary of the Company (other than Finco or a Receivables Entity) that was not a Guarantor at the time of the execution of this Supplemental Indenture becomes a guarantor or an obligor in respect of any Triggering Indebtedness, within 10 Business Days of such event, the Company shall cause such Subsidiary to enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall agree to Guarantee the 2033 Notes, fully and unconditionally and on a senior unsecured basis; provided that in no event shall a Subsidiary of the Company be required to provide a Guarantee of the 2033 Notes if the Company reasonably determines that such Guarantee is prohibited by, or would be unduly burdensome under, applicable laws or would result in adverse tax consequences to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The form of such joinder to this Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as <u>Exhibit B.</u>

So long as any Finco Indebtedness remains outstanding, if Finco acquires and holds any material assets, other than (i) any intercompany notes or receivables or (ii) any proceeds from any indebtedness issued by Finco, within 10 Business Days of such event, the Company shall cause Finco to enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which Finco shall agree to Guarantee the 2033 Notes, fully and unconditionally and on a senior unsecured basis, provided that in no event shall Finco be required to provide a Guarantee of the 2033 Notes if the Company reasonably determines that such Guarantee is prohibited by, or would be unduly burdensome under, applicable laws or would result in adverse tax consequences to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Solely with respect to the 2033 Notes, the provisions set forth below shall replace in its entirety Section 10.07 of the Base Indenture:

"The Guarantee of the 2033 Notes by any Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally terminated and released, without any action on the part of the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; upon a sale or disposition of such Guarantor in a transaction that complies with this Indenture such that such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if the Company exercises its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option with respect to the 2033 Notes or if the Company's obligations under this Indenture are discharged with respect to the 2033 Notes in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (1) in the case of any Guarantee by Finco, upon Finco no longer holding any material assets, other than (A) any intercompany notes or receivables or (B) any proceeds from any indebtedness issued by Finco and (2) in the case of any Guarantee by any Guarantor other than Finco, upon such Guarantor no longer being an issuer or guarantor in respect of (A) Mylan Notes that have an aggregate principal amount in excess of $500.0 million or (B) any Triggering Indebtedness, in the case of each of clauses (2)(A) and (B), excluding any indebtedness or Guarantees, as applicable, that are being concurrently released; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; upon receipt of the consent of the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2033 Notes in accordance with Article VIII of the Base Indenture."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was made by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its 2033 Note Guarantee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its 2033 Note Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the 2033 Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Supplemental Indenture as provided in this Section 3.05.

#### ARTICLE 4

#### Redemption of 2033 Notes by the Company
**Section 4.01.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Optional Redemption***.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2033 Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the Redemption Date on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the 2033 Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2033 Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2033 Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the 2033 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.01, any redemption pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Article III of the Base Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary's procedures) at least 10 days but (except in the case of a redemption subject to one or more conditions precedent, as described below) no more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of 2033 Notes to be redeemed, at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the 2033 Notes to be redeemed will state, among other things, the amount of such 2033 Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of 2033 Notes to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, notice of any redemption of, or any offer to purchase, the 2033 Notes may, at the Company's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. If a notice of redemption or purchase is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company's discretion, the redemption date or purchase date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption or offer to purchase was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the redemption date or purchase date or by the redemption date or purchase date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Company's discretion if the Company reasonably believes that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice or offer that payment of the redemption or purchase price and performance of the Company's obligations with respect to such redemption or offer to purchase may be performed by another Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If less than all of the 2033 Notes are to be redeemed, the 2033 Notes to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with applicable depositary procedures or, solely in the case of definitive notes, by lot on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that no 2033 Notes of a principal amount of €100,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any 2033 Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the 2033 Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the note to be redeemed. A new 2033 Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the note will be issued in the name of the holder of the 2033 Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original 2033 Note.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations, rulings or treaties promulgated under the laws) of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or any change in, or amendment to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, rulings or treaties, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after June 12, 2026, the Company or any Guarantor becomes or, based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Company, will become obligated to pay additional amounts as described in Section 5 of the Global 2033 Notes with respect to the 2033 Notes, then the Company may at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the 2033 Notes on not less than 10 nor (except in the case of a redemption subject to one or more conditions precedent, as described in Section 4.01(f)) more than 60 days prior notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of principal amount of the 2033 Notes, together with interest accrued but unpaid on the 2033 Notes to the date fixed for redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For so long as any 2033 Notes are admitted to the Official List of Euronext Dublin and admitted for trading on its Global Exchange Market and the rules of Euronext Dublin so require, any such notice to the holders of the relevant notes shall also be delivered to the Companies' Announcements Office of Euronext Dublin and, in connection with any redemption, the Company will notify Euronext Dublin of any change in the principal amount of the 2033 Notes outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any obligation to determine, calculate or verify the calculation of the Redemption Price or the Comparable Government Bond Rate. The Company's actions and determinations in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

**Section 4.02. *Mandatory Redemption****.* Except as set forth in Section 3.04, the Company shall not have any mandatory redemption obligation with respect to the 2033 Notes.

**Section 4.03. *Deposit of Redemption Price****.* On or prior to 10:00 a.m. (London Time) one Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price for the 2033 Notes which are to be redeemed on that date.

"In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the 2033 Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or other agent, as trust funds, in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the 2033 Notes, cash in euros, non-callable government obligations of any member nation of the European Union whose official currency is the euro, certificates, depository receipts or other instruments which evidence a direct ownership interest in such obligations or principal or interest payments due in respect thereof, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient (without consideration of any reinvestment of interest), to pay when due the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2033 Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the 2033 Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes solely as a result of the Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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, which opinion must be based either on a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax laws or regulations occurring after the Issue Date, or the Company having received a ruling from, or published by, the Internal Revenue Service to that effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) no Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating to other Indebtedness) or the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.03, the conditions set forth in the foregoing subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e) need not be satisfied so long as, at the time the Company makes the deposit described in subsection (a), (i) no Default under clauses (1), (2), (8) and (9) under Section 6.01 has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit and after giving effect thereto, and (ii) either (x) a notice of redemption has been transmitted providing for redemption of all the 2033 Notes not more than 60 days after such transmission and the requirements for such redemption shall have been complied with or (y) the Stated Maturity of the 2033 Notes will occur within 60 days. If the conditions in the preceding sentence are satisfied, the Company shall be deemed to have exercised its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option, as applicable.

If the funds deposited with the Trustee or other agent to effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the 2033 Notes when due, then the Company's obligations and the obligations of the Guarantors under this Indenture will be revived with respect to the 2033 Notes and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred."

VIATRIS INC.

4.250% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2033

(herein called the "Notes")

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***General***. This Note is one of a duly authorized series of debt securities of Viatris Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), issued under and pursuant to an indenture, dated as of June 17, 2026, by and among the Company, the guarantors from time to time party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 17, 2026 (the "Base Indenture" and, as so supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture"), by and among the Company, the guarantors from time to time party thereto (the "Guarantors"), and the Trustee, to which Indenture and all other indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantors and the holders of the Notes, this Note being subject to all terms therein contained. This Note is an unsecured obligation of the Company and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company.

The Guarantors have unconditionally guaranteed the Notes on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Payments****.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Interest on this Note will be payable annually in arrears on June 17 of each year (the "Interest Payment Date"), beginning on June 17, 2027.

Interest on this Note will accrue from the last Interest Payment Date on which interest was paid on this Note, or if no interest has been paid on this Note, from the June 17, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All payments of interest and principal, including payments made upon any redemption of this Note, will be payable in euro. If, on or after June 12, 2026, the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company's control or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of this Note will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the most recent euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate available on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date, as reported by Bloomberg. Any payment in respect of this Note so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Note or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor any paying agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch will initially act as paying agent for this Note, and the Trustee will initially act as transfer agent, security registrar and trustee for this Note. The Company may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designations or approve a change in the offices where they act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. ***Restrictive Covenants***. This Note is an unsecured general obligation of the Company and is guaranteed by the Guarantors as provided in the Indenture. The Indenture does not limit other unsecured debt. It does limit certain debt and sale leaseback transactions. The limitations are subject to a number of important definitions, qualifications and exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Optional Redemption***. The Notes are subject to optional redemption, including optional redemption for tax reasons, at any time prior to the Schedule Maturity Date, pursuant to the terms set forth in Article 4 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. ***Payment of Additional Amounts***. The Company or, if applicable, any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee of this Note under the Indenture will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay as additional interest on this Note or under its Guarantee in respect of this Note, as applicable, such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment by the Company, any Guarantor or a paying agent of the principal of and interest on this Note or under its Guarantee in respect of this Note, as applicable, to a holder, after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by the United States, the Netherlands or any other jurisdiction in which the Company or any Guarantor or, in each case, any successor person substituted in accordance with the Indenture may be organized or resident for tax purposes, as applicable, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (each a "Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction"), will not be less than the amount provided in this Note or under the Guarantee in respect of this Note, as applicable, to be then due and payable; *provided*, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts shall not apply:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the holder, or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership or
 corporation, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being considered as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) being or having been present or engaged in a trade or business in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or having had a permanent establishment in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction;

(b) having a current or former connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the ownership of this Note or the receipt of any payment or the enforcement of any rights hereunder), including a connection as a citizen or resident of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction;

<br> (c) being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company or a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

<br> (e) being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or any successor provision;

<sup>(2)</sup> to any holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary or partnership, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;<br>

------

<sup>(3)</sup> to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or otherwise withheld solely by reason of a failure of the holder or any other person to comply with certification, identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;<br>

<br> (4) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Company or a paying agent from the payment;

<sup>(5)</sup> to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;<br>

<br> (6) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

<sup>(7)</sup> to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge withheld by any paying agent (which term may include us) from any payment of principal of or interest on any Note, if the holder or beneficial owner would have been able to avoid such withholding by presenting the Note to another available payment agent;<br>

<sup>(8)</sup> to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been so imposed or withheld but for the presentation by the holder of a Note for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;<br>

<sup>(9)</sup> to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any regulations or agreements thereunder or official interpretations thereof, or any amended or successor provisions), any agreement entered into pursuant to section 1471(b) of the Code, or any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation thereof (or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code or implementing such an intergovernmental agreement in connection with sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code);<br>

<br> (10) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to the Dutch Withholding Tax Act 2021 (*Wet bronbelasting 2021*); or

<br> (11) in the case of any combination of the above items.

This Note is subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or regulation or administrative or judicial interpretation applicable to the Notes. Except as specifically provided under Section 5 hereof and Section 4.01(h) of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Company will not be required to make any payment for any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority of or in any government or political subdivision.

The Company will not pay additional amounts on any Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid the withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant global note to another paying agent.

------

As used under Section 5 hereof, the term "United States" means the United States of America (including the states and the District of Columbia) and its territories, possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction and "*United States person*" means any individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia (other than a partnership that is not treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes), or any estate or trust the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Amendment, Supplement and Waiver***. The Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. ***Authorized Denominations***. The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in the minimum denomination of €100,000 and in any larger amount that is an integral multiple of €1,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. ***Exchange and Registration of Transfer***. This Note is exchangeable only if (x) the depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Notes or if at any time the depositary ceases to be in good standing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company does not appoint a successor depositary within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware that such depositary is no longer in good standing, or (y) the Company in its sole discretion determines that the Notes shall be exchanged for certificated Notes in definitive form, provided that the definitive Notes so issued in exchange for this Note shall be in authorized denominations and be of like aggregate principal amount and tenor and terms as the portion of this Note to be exchanged. Except as provided above, owners of beneficial interests in this Note will not be entitled to have this Note or Notes represented by this Note registered in their names or receive physical delivery of Notes in definitive form and will not be considered the holders hereof for any purpose under the Indenture. Any Notes issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered global note will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the Trustee or other relevant agent of the Trustee. It is expected that the depositary's instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global note that had been held by the depositary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. ***No Recourse Against Certain Persons***. No present, past or future director, member, partner, officer, employee or equityholder of the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries will have any liability for any of the Company's or any Guarantor's obligations under this Note or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation (other than the Guarantors in respect of their respective Guarantees of the notes and the Company in respect of the notes). Each holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of this Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Definitions***. All terms used in this Note which are not defined herein but are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ***Governing Law***. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:

June 17, 2026

Viatris Inc.

€650,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of 4.250% Notes due 2033

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special New York counsel to Viatris Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), Utah Acquisition Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Utah Acquisition Sub</u>"), Mylan II B.V., a private limited liability company incorporated and existing under the laws of the Netherlands ("<u>Mylan II</u>"), and Mylan Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation ("<u>Mylan Inc.</u>" and, together with Utah Acquisition Sub and Mylan II, the "<u>Guarantors</u>"), in connection with the public offering and sale by the Company of €650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.250% Notes due 2033 (the "<u>Notes</u>") issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of June 17, 2026 (the "<u>Base Indenture</u>"), among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the "<u>Trustee</u>"), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 17, 2026, among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee establishing the terms of the Notes (the "<u>Supplemental Indenture</u>" and, together with the Base Indenture, the "<u>Indenture</u>"). The Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed (the "<u>Guarantees</u>") by the Guarantors.

In that connection, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion, including: (a) the Indenture; (b) the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-287087), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") on May 8, 2025 (the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"), with respect to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>") of an unlimited aggregate amount of various securities of the Company and the Guarantors, to be issued from time to time by the Company and the Guarantors; (c) the related Prospectus dated May 8, 2025 (together with the documents incorporated therein by reference, the "<u>Basic Prospectus</u>"); (d) the Prospectus Supplement dated June 12, 2026, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and Rule 430B of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (together with the Basic Prospectus, the "<u>Prospectus</u>"); and (e) a specimen global certificate for the Notes. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon representations of officers or directors of the Company and the Guarantors and documents furnished to us by the Company and the Guarantors without independent verification of their accuracy. We have also assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We also have assumed that the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and represents a legal, valid and binding obligation of, the Trustee.

------

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of opinion that when the Notes are authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered and paid for (i) the Notes will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and (ii) each Guarantee will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 18, 2026, and to the incorporation by reference of this opinion into the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the caption "Validity of the Notes and the Guarantees" in the Prospectus Supplement dated June 12, 2026, forming a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.

We are admitted to practice only in the State of New York, and we express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United States of America. In particular, we do not purport to pass on any matter governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or the Netherlands.

This opinion letter sets out our opinion on certain matters of the laws with general applicability of the Netherlands, and, insofar as they are directly applicable in the Netherlands, of the European Union, as at today's date and as presently interpreted under published authoritative case law of the Dutch courts, the General Court and the Court of Justice of the European Union. We do not express any opinion on tax law, Dutch or European competition law, data protection law, securitization law or regulatory law. No undertaking is assumed on our part to revise, update or amend this opinion letter in connection with or to notify or inform you of, any developments and/or changes of Dutch law subsequent to today's date. We do not purport to opine on the consequences of amendments to the Opinion Documents or the Corporate Documents subsequent to the date of this opinion letter.<br>The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are to be construed and interpreted in accordance with Dutch law. The competent courts at Amsterdam, the Netherlands have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any issues of interpretation or liability arising out of or in connection with this opinion letter. Any legal relationship arising out of or in connection with this opinion letter (whether contractual or non-contractual), including the above submission as to jurisdiction, is governed by Dutch law and shall be subject to the general terms and conditions of NautaDutilh. Any liability arising out of or in connection with this opinion letter shall be limited to the amount which is paid out under NautaDutilh's insurance policy in the matter concerned. No person other than NautaDutilh may be held liable in connection with this opinion letter.<br>In this opinion letter, legal concepts are expressed in English terms. The Dutch legal concepts concerned may not be identical in meaning to the concepts described by the English terms as they exist under the law of other jurisdictions. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency, the relevant expression shall be deemed to refer only to the Dutch legal concepts described by the English terms.<br>For the purposes of this opinion letter, we have assumed that:<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. drafts of documents reviewed by us will be signed in the form of those drafts, each copy of a document conforms to the original, each original is authentic, and each signature is the genuine signature of the individual purported to have
 placed that signature;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. if any signature under any document is an electronic signature (as opposed to a handwritten ("wet ink") signature) only, it is either a qualified electronic signature within the meaning of the eIDAS Regulation, or the method used for
 signing is otherwise sufficiently reliable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. the Registration Statement has been declared effective by, and the Prospectus Supplement has been filed with, the SEC in the forms reviewed by us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. (i) no internal regulations (*reglementen*) have been adopted by any corporate body of the Dutch Company which would affect the validity of the resolutions recorded in the Resolutions and (ii) the
 Articles of Association were the Dutch Company's articles of association in force when the Opinion Documents were entered into by the Dutch Company and as they are currently in force. The Extract supports item (ii) of this assumption;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. the Dutch Company has not (i) been dissolved (*ontbonden*), (ii) ceased to exist pursuant to a merger (*fusie*) or a division (*splitsing*), (iii) been converted (*omgezet*) into another legal form, either national or foreign, (iv) had its assets placed under administration (*onder bewind gesteld*), (v) been declared bankrupt (*failliet verklaard*), been granted a suspension of payments (*surseance van betaling verleend*), or started
 or become subject to statutory proceedings for the restructuring of its debts (*akkoordprocedure*) or (vi) been made subject to similar proceedings in any jurisdiction or otherwise been limited in its
 power to dispose of its assets. The Extract and our inquiries of 16 June 2026 with the Insolvency Registers support the items (i) through (v) (except for any statutory proceedings for the restructuring of debts (*akkoordprocedure*) that have not, or not yet, been filed in the Insolvency Registers) of this assumption. However, this information does not constitute conclusive evidence that the events set out in items (i) through (v)
 have not occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. the resolutions recorded in the Resolutions are (and were at all relevant times) in full force and effect, and the factual statements made and the confirmations given in the Resolutions are (and were at all relevant times) complete and
 correct;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;g. each Power of Attorney (i) is in full force and effect, and (ii) under any applicable law other than Dutch law, validly authorises the person or persons purported to be granted power of attorney, to represent and bind the Dutch Company
 for the purposes stated therein; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;h. the issuance of the Notes, to the extent made in the Netherlands, has been, is and will be made in conformity with the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus Regulation, the PRIIPS Regulation and the rules promulgated thereunder.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth in this opinion letter and to any matters, documents or events not disclosed to us, we express the following opinions:

------

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![](image00003.jpg) | ![](image00003.jpg) |
|  | 4 |

---

#### Incorporation and Corporate Status
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Dutch Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a *besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid*.

#### Corporate Power
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Dutch Company has the corporate power to enter into the Opinion Documents and to perform its obligations thereunder. The Dutch Company does not violate any provision of its Articles of Association by entering into the Opinion
 Documents or performing its obligations thereunder.

#### Corporate Action
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The Dutch Company has taken all corporate action required by its Articles of Association and Dutch law in connection with entering into the Opinion Documents.

#### Valid Signing
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The Opinion Documents have been validly signed on behalf of the Dutch Company.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. As Dutch lawyers we are not qualified or able to assess the true meaning and purport of the terms of the Opinion Documents under the applicable law and the obligations of the parties to the Opinion Documents and we have made no
 investigation of that meaning and purport. Our review of the Opinion Documents and of any other documents subject or expressed to be subject to any law other than Dutch law has therefore been limited to the terms of these documents as they
 appear to us on their face.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The opinion expressed in paragraph 1 (*Incorporation and Corporate Status*) of this opinion letter must not be read to imply that the Dutch Company cannot be dissolved (*ontbonden*). A company such as the Dutch Company may be dissolved, *inter alia* by the competent court at the request of the company's management board, any interested party (*belanghebbende*) or the public prosecution office in certain circumstances, such as when there are certain defects in the incorporation of the company. Any such dissolution will not have retro-active
 effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. The Extract does not constitute conclusive evidence of the facts reflected therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. Pursuant to Article 2:7 DCC, any transaction entered into by a legal entity may be nullified by the legal entity itself or its liquidator in bankruptcy proceedings (*curator*) if the objects of that
 entity were transgressed by the transaction and the other party to the transaction knew or should have known this without independent investigation (*wist of zonder eigen onderzoek moest weten*). The
 Dutch Supreme Court (*Hoge Raad der Nederlanden*) has ruled that in determining whether the objects of a legal entity are transgressed, not only the description of the objects in that legal entity's
 articles of association (*statuten*) is decisive, but all (relevant) circumstances must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the legal entity were served by the transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. A power of attorney or mandate granted by the Dutch Company will terminate in the event of a bankruptcy and become ineffective upon the suspension of payments of the principal or, unless otherwise provided, the attorney.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. The opinions expressed in this opinion letter may be limited or affected by:

<br> a. rules relating to Insolvency Proceedings or similar proceedings under a foreign law and other rules affecting creditors' rights generally;

<br> b. the provisions of fraudulent preference and fraudulent conveyance (*Actio Pauliana*) and similar rights available in other jurisdictions to insolvency practitioners and insolvency office holders in bankruptcy proceedings or creditors;

<br> c. claims based on tort (*onrechtmatige daad*);

<br> d. sanctions and measures, including but not limited to those concerning export control, pursuant to European Union regulations, under the Dutch Sanctions Act 1977 (*Sanctiewet 1977*) or other legislation;

<br> e. the Anti-Boycott Regulation and related legislation;

<br> f. any intervention, recovery or resolution measure by any regulatory or other authority or governmental body in relation to financial enterprises or their affiliated entities; and

------

| ![](image00003.jpg) | ![](image00003.jpg) |
|  | 6 |

g. the rules of force majeure (*niet toerekenbare tekortkoming*), reasonableness and fairness (*redelijkheid en billijkheid*), suspension (*opschorting*), dissolution (*ontbinding*), unforeseen circumstances (*onvoorziene omstandigheden*) and vitiated consent (i.e., duress (*bedreiging*), fraud (*bedrog*), abuse of circumstances (*misbruik van omstandigheden*) and error (*dwaling*)) or a difference of intention (*wil*) and declaration (*verklaring*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. This opinion letter does not purport to express any opinion or view on the operational rules and procedures of any clearing or settlement system or agency.

Re: The Registration Statement (as defined below)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are Pennsylvania counsel to Mylan Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation ("***Company***"), and have been asked to prepare and deliver this opinion letter in connection with the Company's proposed guarantees (collectively, "***Debt Securities Guarantees***") of €650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.250% senior notes due 2033 (collectively, "***Debt Securities***") to be issued by Viatris Inc., a Delaware corporation ("***Issuer***"), pursuant to that certain indenture, dated as of June 17, 2026, by and among the Issuer, the Company, the other guarantors from time to time party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the "***Trustee***"), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture, dated as of June 17, 2026, by and among the Issuer, the Company, the other guarantors from time to time party thereto and the Trustee (collectively, the "***Indenture***") as contemplated under the registration statement on Form S-3 ("***Registration Statement***") filed by the Issuer and the Company on May 8, 2025, with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("***SEC***"). We have prepared this opinion letter in our narrow capacity as Pennsylvania counsel to the Company, and we have not represented the Company in connection with the negotiation, documentation or performance of the Indenture, the Registration Statement or any other matter relating thereto.

In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as Amended, of the Company, as certified by the Pennsylvania Secretary of State as of June 15, 2026 ("***Articles***"); (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Bylaws, as Amended, of the Company ("***Bylaws***" and collectively with the Articles, "***Charter Documents***"); (iii) the Registration Statement and the prospectus supplement dated June 12, 2026 filed by the Issuer and the Company on June 15, 2026 (the "***Prospectus Supplement***") for the limited purposes of providing the opinions contained herein and confirming the statements set forth in the final paragraph of this opinion letter; (iv) the Indenture; (v) certain resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of Directors ("***Board Resolutions***"); (vi) a certificate of subsistence ("***Certificate of Subsistence***") with respect to the Company issued by the Pennsylvania Secretary of State as of June 15, 2026; and (vii) such other documents and records as we deemed appropriate for purposes of the opinions set forth herein. <br>

Page 2 We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (and the authority of all signatories), the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, facsimile or electronic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.

As to any facts that are material to the opinions hereinafter expressed that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied without investigation upon a certificate of the Assistant Secretary of the Company, although we advise you that nothing has come to our attention that has caused us to believe that such reliance is unwarranted.

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, whenever a statement or opinion herein is qualified by "to our knowledge," "known to us" or by words of similar import, it is intended to indicate that, during the course of our representation of the Company, no information has come to the attention of those lawyers in our firm who have rendered substantive legal services to the Company that gives us actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement or opinion. Except as specifically set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy of facts material to any such statement or opinion, and no inference as to such statement or opinion should be drawn from the fact of our representation of the Company.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and to the limitations and qualifications described below, we are of the opinion that:

1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is a corporation presently subsisting under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Indenture, including the Debt Securities Guarantees, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The execution and delivery of the Indenture, including the Debt Securities Guarantees, have been duly authorized by the Company.

4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Indenture, including the Debt Securities Guarantees, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not result in a violation of the Charter Documents.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following additional limitations, exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other state or jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For purposes of the opinion set forth in paragraph 1 above as to the present subsistence of the Company, we have relied solely upon the Certificate of Subsistence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We have assumed that the members of the Company's Board of Directors have complied with applicable fiduciary duties in connection with the authorization and performance of the Indenture, including the Debt Securities Guarantees, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We have assumed that at the time of execution and delivery by the Company of the Indenture and since June 15, 2026, (i) the Charter Documents will not have been amended in any way and remain in full force and effect; (ii) the Board Resolutions will not have been amended in any way and remain in full force and effect, and constitute the only resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company with respect to the Indenture and the transactions contemplated therein; and (iii) the Certificate of Subsistence remains accurate.

This opinion letter is effective only as of the date hereof. We do not assume responsibility for updating this opinion letter as of any date subsequent to its date, and we assume no responsibility for advising you of any changes with respect to any matters described in this opinion letter that may occur, or facts that may come to our attention, subsequent to the date hereof.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the SEC as an exhibit to the Issuer's Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the Debt Securities and the Debt Securities Guarantees and to the references to our firm and this opinion letter under the heading "Legal Matters" in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement and under the heading "Validity of the Notes and the Guarantees" in the Prospectus Supplement. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder. This opinion letter is not to be quoted in whole or in part or otherwise referred to or used, nor is it to be filed with any governmental agency or any other person other than the SEC, without our express written consent.
