To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule II other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 22 hereof.

Section 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Representations and Warranties</u>.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company represents and warrants to, and agree with, each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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; The Company is eligible under the Shelf Procedures to file and to use a short form base shelf prospectus for a distribution of the Securities in the Province of Ontario; the Company selected the Province of Ontario as review jurisdiction for the Registration Statement and filed the Registration Statement with the Reviewing Authority; the Company obtained a notification of clearance from the Reviewing Authority in respect of the Registration Statement; and no order suspending the distribution of the Securities has been issued by the Reviewing Authority or any other regulatory authority or court, and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or, to the Company's knowledge, is pending or threatened or contemplated by the Reviewing Authority or any other regulatory authority or court.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Company meets the eligibility requirements for use of Form F-10 under the Act, has filed a registration statement on Form F-10 (the file number of which is set forth in Schedule I hereto) in respect of the Securities, has appointed an agent for service of process on Form F-X in conjunction with the filing of such registration statement with the Commission and has caused the Trustee to prepare and file with the Commission a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1; such registration statement and any post-effective amendment thereto have been declared effective by the Commission; any documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement, when such registration statement became effective or when such documents were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, conformed in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or any notice objecting to its use has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened by the Commission.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Except for the omission of disclosure that (x) is not applicable to the offering and sale of the Securities in the United States or (y) is permitted to be omitted from a prospectus contained in Part I of a registration statement on Form F-10 (collectively, "Omitted Disclosure"), the Base Prospectus, at the time the Reviewing Authority issued its notification of clearance for the Registration Statement, conformed in all material respects with the applicable disclosure requirements of Ontario Securities Law (including the Shelf Procedures) that would have applied if the U.S. Final Prospectus was qualifying a public offering of the Securities in the Province of Ontario.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On each Effective Date, the Registration Statement did, and on the date first filed in accordance with General Instruction II.L of Form F-10 and on the Closing Date, the U.S. Final Prospectus will, conform in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act; except for the omission of the Omitted Disclosure, on the date first filed and on the Closing Date, the U.S. Final Prospectus will conform in all material respects with the applicable disclosure requirements of Ontario Securities Law (including the Shelf Procedures) that would have applied if the U.S. Final Prospectus was qualifying a public offering of the Securities in the Province of Ontario; on the Closing Date, the Indenture will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Trust Indenture Act; the Registration Statement, as of each Effective Date, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the U.S. Final Prospectus, as of its date on its filing date and on the Closing Date, will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to (i) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act of the Trustee or (ii) the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the U.S. Final Prospectus based upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As of the Time of Sale, (i) the Disclosure Package and (ii) each electronic road show, if any, when taken together as a whole with the Disclosure Package, did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2)) of the Securities, the Company was not or is not an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an Ineligible Issuer. The Representatives have notified the Company of the earliest time that an offering participant made a bona fide offer of the 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and each final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to this Agreement does not include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated therein and any prospectus supplement deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. If there occurs an event or development as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include an untrue statement of a material fact or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Representatives. The foregoing two sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company is a reporting issuer not in default of Ontario Securities Law and is in compliance with its obligations thereunder in all material respects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The statements in the Disclosure Package and the U.S. Final Prospectus under the headings "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations", "Material Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations", "Description of Debt Securities", "Description of the Notes" and "Enforceability of Certain Civil Liabilities" insofar as such statements summarize legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are accurate and fair summaries of such legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company is not, and after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Disclosure Package and the U.S. Final Prospectus will not be, required to register as an "investment company" or an entity "controlled" by an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xvii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each significant subsidiary of the Company as defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X (a "Significant Subsidiary") has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation or partnership under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, with the corporate or partnership, as applicable, power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package and the U.S. Final Prospectus, and each Significant Subsidiary is duly qualified to transact business in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification, except, in each case, where the failure to so qualify in any jurisdiction, is not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Indemnification</u>.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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; against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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; against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; <u>provided</u> that any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; 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;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

<u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereto, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereto, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the information contained in the final term sheet required to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(b) hereto, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the Securities and, under the heading "Underwriting," (i) the names listed in the table in the Second paragraph of the text, (ii) the third and fourth sentences of the third paragraph related to concessions and (iii) the sixth, seventh and eighth paragraphs related to stabilization and penalty bids in any Preliminary Prospectus and the U.S. Final Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the U.S. Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 8. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representatives, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 8 or Section 9 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

------

Section 9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Contribution</u>. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting commission received by the Underwriters bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Securities.

The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 was determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 9. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 9 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

------

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 9, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several in proportion to the principal amount of the Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule II hereto and not joint.

Section 10.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery</u>.

The representations, warranties, indemnities, agreements and other statements of the Company or the officers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any Underwriter or any controlling person of any Underwriter and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

Section 11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Termination of Agreement</u>.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Representatives may terminate this Agreement on behalf of themselves and the Underwriters, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package and the U.S. Final Prospectus, a Material Adverse Change, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or Canada, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Disclosure Package or the U.S. Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto subsequent to the date hereof), or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended by the Commission, any securities commission or securities regulatory authority in Canada, or if trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required by any such exchange or by order of the Commission, any securities commission or securities regulatory authority in Canada, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the New York Stock Exchange or the Toronto Stock Exchange or any other governmental authority or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by United States federal, New York State or Canadian federal authorities.

------

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except to the extent provided in Section 6 hereof. Notwithstanding any such termination, the provisions of Sections 1, 6, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 hereof shall remain in effect.

Section 12.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Default by One or More of the Underwriters</u>. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Date to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the "Defaulted Securities"), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, each severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, 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;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Underwriters or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement and the U.S. Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 12.

------

Section 13.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Agent for Service; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities</u>. By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company (i) acknowledges that it will, prior to the Closing Date and by separate written instrument, irrevocably designate and appoint CT Corporation System ("CT Corporation"), 28 Liberty Street, New York, New York 10005 (and any successor entity), as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Securities or the Indenture that may be instituted in any federal or state court in the State of New York or brought under federal or state securities laws, (ii) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit or proceeding and (iii) agrees that service of process upon CT Corporation (or any successor) and written notice of said service to the Company (mailed or delivered in accordance with Section 14), shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such suit or proceeding. The Company further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of CT Corporation (or any successor) in full force and effect so long as any of the Securities shall be outstanding.

To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the above-referenced documents, to the extent permitted by law.

The provisions of this Section 13 shall survive any termination of this Agreement, in whole or in part.

Furthermore, the Company agrees that they are solely responsible for making their own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). The Company agrees that they will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

#### Changes to the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement
On March 24, 2026, RCI announced a Canadian offering of Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due 2056 (the "**Canadian Notes**"). The Canadian Notes will be new unsecured, subordinated obligations of RCI. RCI intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Canadian Notes to repay certain of its outstanding indebtedness, which may include the 5.00% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due 2081. Pending any such uses, RCI may use the net proceeds from the sale of the Canadian Notes as working capital or invest the net proceeds in bank deposits and money market securities. The Canadian Notes are being offered exclusively to persons in the provinces of Canada on a private placement basis in reliance upon exemptions from the prospectus requirements under applicable securities laws in each of the provinces of Canada. The offering of the Canadian Notes is not being made in the United States. There can be no assurance that the offering of the Canadian Notes will be consummated on attractive terms or at all. Conforming changes are deemed to be made throughout the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement to reflect the offering of the Canadian Notes.

The 5-Year Treasury Rate for computing interest on the outstanding Notes from and after the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date will initially be based on such rate as of the first Business Day prior to the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and it will be reset on the fifth anniversary of the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and, thereafter, on each subsequent date that is the fifth anniversary of the immediately preceding date on which such rate is reset, based on the 5-Year Treasury Rate as of the first Business Day prior to each such fifth anniversary (each of the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and each date thereafter that such rate is so reset, an "Interest Rate Reset Date"; and the Business Day prior to each Interest Rate Reset Date, an "Interest Rate Calculation Date").

------

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture (as defined below), be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the January 15 or July 15, as applicable (whether or not a Business Day), immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date (such date, the "Record Date") for such interest.

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of New York (which initially shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee), and if the Company shall designate and maintain an additional office or agency for such purpose, also at such additional office or agency, in U.S. dollars. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment of principal shall be payable only upon surrender of this Note to the Paying Agent.

For any period, interest on this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months, and, for any period shorter than six months, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate payable hereunder is the rate payable multiplied by the actual number of days in the year and divided by 360.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless and until the Trustee's certificate of authentication below has been duly executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual or electronic signature of a designated signing officer of the Trustee. This Note and the Indenture are governed by, and are to be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable therein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

ARTICLE THREE

THE NOTES

SECTION 301. TITLE AND TERMS.

The Notes shall be known and designated as the "6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due 2056" of the Company. The entire unpaid principal amount of each Note shall become due and payable to the Holder thereof on July 31, 2056 (the "Maturity Date"). Interest will accrue on the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Note from, and including, March 27, 2026 to, but excluding, the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date at a rate of interest equal to 6.875% per annum. During each Interest Rate Reset Period, the Notes will accrue interest at a rate of interest per annum equal to the 5-Year Treasury Rate as of the most recent Interest Rate Calculation Date plus 2.840%; provided, that the interest rate during any Interest Rate Reset Period for the Notes will not reset below 6.875%. The 5-Year Treasury Rate for computing interest on the outstanding Notes from and after the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date will initially be based on such rate as of the first Business Day prior to the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and it will be reset on the fifth anniversary of the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and, thereafter, on each subsequent date that is the fifth anniversary of the immediately preceding date on which such rate is reset, based on the 5-Year Treasury Rate as of the first Business Day prior to each such fifth anniversary (each of the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date and each

------

date thereafter that such rate is so reset, an "Interest Rate Reset Date"; and the Business Day prior to each Interest Rate Reset Date, an "Interest Rate Calculation Date").

Interest shall accrue on the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Note at the aforementioned rate(s), as applicable, from March 27, 2026 or, if interest has been paid or duly provided for, the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for. The Company has the right to defer interest payments pursuant to Section 303. Subject to the Deferral Right provided therein, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually on January 31 and July 31 in each year (each an Interest Payment Date for purposes of this Supplemental Indenture) (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no further interest will accrue in respect of such postponement), in equal installments, until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided for. Interest on the Notes shall be payable in arrears. The Record Date for the interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be January 15 or July 15, as applicable, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (such date, the "Record Date"). Except for the compounding of Deferred Interest provided for in Section 303, no interest shall accrue on any overdue installments of interest. No interest on the Notes will accrue or be payable after the Conversion Time. Interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and, for any period shorter than six months, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), and without affecting the interest payable on the Notes, the yearly rate of interest to which any rate of interest payable under the Notes, which is to be calculated on any basis other than a full calendar year, is equivalent may be determined by multiplying the rate by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which interest at such rate is payable and the denominator of which is the number of days comprising such other basis.

An unlimited aggregate principal amount of the Notes may be authenticated and delivered under this Supplemental Indenture (of which U.S. $750,000,000 is being issued, authenticated and delivered on the date hereof), including Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 806, 1008 or 1009 of the Indenture. Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Securities issued on the date hereof may be created and issued under the Indenture from time to time by the Company without notice to or consent of the Holders, subject to the Company complying with any applicable provision of the Indenture. Any Additional Notes created and issued shall have the same terms and conditions as the Notes at the time outstanding, except for their date of issue, and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date; provided that, if any such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number. All Initial Notes and Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

The Notes shall be unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company. The payment of principal and interest on the Notes is subordinated in right of payment to

------

the prior payment in full of all present and future Senior Indebtedness to the extent and in the manner provided in Article Seven.

The Notes shall be denominated in, and all principal of, and interest and premium (if any) on, the Notes shall be payable in U.S. dollars. Any payment of Additional Amounts hereunder shall also be payable in U.S. dollars.

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company at the prices, at the times and on such other terms and conditions as are specified in the form of the Note in Article Two hereof. The Company shall not be otherwise obligated to redeem, purchase or repay the Notes pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of a Holder of the Notes.

The Notes shall be subject to the covenants (and the related definitions) set forth in Articles Seven and Nine of the Indenture and, except as otherwise provided herein, to any other covenant in the Indenture, and to the defeasance and discharge provisions set forth in Article Three of the Indenture.

SECTION 302. DENOMINATIONS.

The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form without coupons and in denominations of U.S.$2,000 or integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 303. DEFERRAL RIGHT.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may elect, at its sole option, at any date other than an Interest Payment Date, to defer the interest payable on the Notes (the "Deferral Right") on one or more occasions for up to five consecutive years (a "Deferral Period"). Any such election by the Company to defer the payment of interest will not constitute an Event of Default, a Default or any other breach under the Indenture and the Notes. Any installment of interest whose payment is deferred pursuant to the Deferral Right provided for in this Section 303 ("Deferred Interest") will accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the Notes (to the extent permitted by applicable law), compounding on each subsequent Interest Payment Date, until paid. A Deferral Period terminates on any Interest Payment Date where the Company pays all accrued and unpaid interest subject to such Deferral Period on the Notes on such date. No Deferral Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes as of the Maturity Date, if any, will be due and payable on the Maturity Date. There shall be no limit on the number of Deferral Periods that may occur. The Company will give the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes notice of its election to commence or continue a Deferral Period at least 10 but not more than 60 days prior to the next Interest Payment Date. The Trustee shall not be responsible for calculating the amount of any Deferred Interest.

SECTION 304. CALCULATION AGENT.

The Company shall appoint a Calculation Agent on or prior to the Interest Rate Calculation Date applicable to the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date; *provided*,

------

*however*, that the Company shall not be required to appoint a Calculation Agent if the Company has elected to redeem all of the outstanding Notes as of the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date; provided, further, that, if the Company has so elected but does not redeem all of the outstanding Notes on the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date, the Company shall appoint a Calculation Agent not later than the Business Day immediately following the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date. The Company or its Affiliates may assume the duties of the Calculation Agent.

The Calculation Agent will determine the applicable interest rate for each Interest Rate Reset Period as of the applicable Interest Rate Calculation Date. Promptly upon such determination, the Calculation Agent, if other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, will notify the Company of the applicable interest rate for the relevant Interest Rate Reset Period and, provided the Trustee is not the Calculation Agent, the Company will then promptly notify the Trustee of such interest rate. The Calculation Agent's determination of any interest rate and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Interest Rate Reset Period beginning on or after the Initial Interest Rate Reset Date will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the Calculation Agent's sole discretion and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the documentation relating to the Notes, will become effective without consent from any other Person or entity. Such determination of any interest rate and calculation of the amount of interest will be on file at the Company's principal offices and will be made available to any Holder upon request.

If the 5-Year Treasury Rate cannot be determined pursuant to the method described above, the Company or one of its affiliates, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable to any of the foregoing calculations, or any such source as it deems reasonable from which to estimate the 5-Year Treasury Rate, will determine the 5-Year Treasury Rate in its sole discretion, provided that if the Company or one of its affiliates determines there is an industry-accepted successor 5-Year Treasury Rate, then the Company or one of its affiliates will use such successor rate. If the Company or one of its affiliates has determined a substitute or successor base rate in accordance with the foregoing, the Company or one of its affiliates in its sole discretion may determine the business day convention, the definition of Business Day and the Interest Rate Calculation Date to be used and any other relevant methodology for calculating such substitute or successor base rate, including any adjustment factor needed to make such substitute or successor base rate comparable to the 5-Year Treasury Rate, in a manner that is consistent with industry-accepted practices for such substitute or successor base rate.

SECTION 305. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF DEFINITIVE NOTES FOR DEFINITIVE NOTES.

When Notes in the form of a Definitive Note are presented to the Security Registrar with a request:

&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 register the transfer of such Definitive Notes; 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;(b) to exchange such Definitive Notes for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other authorized denominations,

the Security Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Definitive Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

SECTION 306. TRANSFER OF A DEFINITIVE NOTE FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A GLOBAL SECURITY.

A Holder of a Definitive Note may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Security or transfer such Definitive Notes to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security at any time. Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee will cancel the applicable Definitive Note and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Securities for the applicable Series. If no Global Securities are then outstanding, the Company may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon receipt of a Company Order of the Company in the form of an Officer's Certificate, a new applicable Global Security in the appropriate principal amount.

SECTION 307. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF GLOBAL 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;(a) The transfer and exchange of Global Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security shall deliver to the Security Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary's procedures containing information regarding the participant account of such Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Security or another Global Security, and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Security, and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred.

&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 the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in another Global Security, the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security from which such interest is being transferred.

------

&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) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture (other than Section 305), a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part by the Depositary to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of such Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

SECTION 308. [RESERVED]

SECTION 309. CANCELLATION OR ADJUSTMENT OF GLOBAL SECURITY.

At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or custodian, to reflect such reduction.

SECTION 310. OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES OF NOTES.

&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 permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate, Definitive Notes and Global Securities at the Security Registrar's request.

&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) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted in the Indenture), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon transfers or exchanges pursuant to Sections 205 and 1008 of the Base 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;(c) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Security Registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Security Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

&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) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of the Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same

------

benefits under the Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

&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 Security Registrar and the Trustee may request such evidence as may be reasonably requested by them to determine the identity and signatures of the transferor and the transferee.

SECTION 311. NO OBLIGATION OF THE TRUSTEE.

&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 Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary ("Agent Members") or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or their respective nominees or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

&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 Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global 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 the Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

SECTION 312. NON-COMPLIANT TRANSFERS NULL AND VOID.

Any purported transfer of a Note, or any interest therein, to a purchaser or transferee that does not comply with the requirements specified in this Article Three shall be of no force and effect and shall be null and void ab initio.

SECTION 313. DEFINITIVE NOTES.

&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) A Global Security deposited with the Depositary or Custodian pursuant to Section 201 may be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security, in exchange for such Global Security, only if such

------

transfer complies with this Article Three and (1) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act or otherwise ceases to be eligible as a depositary and, in each case, a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or after the Company becomes aware of such cessation, or (2) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Security Registrar has received a request from the Depositary or (3) the Company, in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depositary, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes under the Indenture. In addition, any Affiliate of the Company that is a beneficial owner of all or part of a Global Security may have such Affiliate's beneficial interest transferred to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note, by providing a written request to the Company and the Trustee and such Opinions of Counsel, certificates or other information as may be required by the Indenture or the Company or the Trustee.

&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) Any Global Security that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 313 shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Security transferred pursuant to this Section 313 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of U.S.$2,000 or any integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct.

&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 registered 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 which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes.

&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) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in paragraph (a)(1), (2) or (3) of this Section 313, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons.
