issued guarantee shall expire on the agreed date. The commitment of the Bank shall expire and all
amounts outstanding under the Facility become due and payable, principal and interest, upon
termination of the Facility in accordance with clauses 5 and 7 below.

5. Events of Default

The Bank may, by written notice to the Borrower, terminate its obligations under this Facility,
suspend the disbursement of the Facility and declare any outstanding amount together with accrued
interest and all other amounts payable under this Facility due and payable without any further
notice or request, on such day as determined by the Bank, if there is an important reason
(wichtiger Grund) (such important reason hereunder referred to as “Event of Default”) Such Event of
Default is given, in particular, without limitation, if:

	a)	 	the Borrower fail to pay any amount
outstanding hereunder when due or when requested by the Bank;
	 
	b)	 	the Borrower fails to duly perform
one or more of its other obligations to the Bank under this Facility or in respect of any security
provided and/or to be provided in connection with this facility, including but not limited to
signing and returning to the Bank loan confirmations;
	 
	c)	 	it appear that upon entering into this
Facility or furnishing any security provided and/or to be provided in connection with this Facility
the Borrower gave the Bank incorrect information or failed to disclose information or misled the
Bank in any way and the Bank if it had possessed correct and complete information, would not have
entered into this Facility or would have altered its conditions;
	 
	d)	 	the Borrower is dissolved,
liquidated, wound up, discontinued or relocated abroad or a decision is taken in this respect;
	 
	e)

prematurely or become capable of being declared due and payable prematurely
	 
	h)	 	any event or change
of circumstances, without prejudice of the generality of the latter, occur which in the Bank’s
opinion might impair or endanger the future performance of this Facility by the Borrower.

6. Payments

The Borrower is entitled to prepay any amount drawn under the Facility, (i) without notice in case
of overdraft or, (ii) in case of fixed term loan or placement, subject to seven days irrevocable
prior written notice, in which case the Borrower shall reimburse all costs incurred or damage
caused by such prepayment. In the event of any payment (other than interest) not being made on due
date and/or upon request from the Bank, the Bank is entitled to charge on the total outstanding
amount, at its full discretion, a penalty interest corresponding to the sum of the agreed interest,
Margin and 3% per annum (the “Penalty Interest”) for late payment until final payment. In the event
of any interest payment not being made on the due date and/or upon request from the Bank, the Bank
is entitled to charge in addition to such interest payment a lump sum indemnification
(pauschalierter Schadensersatz) computed on such interest payment from the due date up to and
including the day of actual payment at a rate of 3% per annum above the rate as determined by the
Bank which would have been payable if such overdue interest payment had during the period of
non-payment thereof constituted a swingline advance hereunder.

All amounts payable by the Borrower under this Facility, whether principal or interest, fees or
otherwise, shall be paid in full without set-off and counterclaim and without any deduction
whatsoever on account of any nature. In the event of the Borrower being compelled by law to make
any such deduction or withholding, the Borrower shall pay on the due date such additional amounts
as may be necessary to ensure that the aggregate net amounts receivable by the Bank after such
deduction or withholding shall equal the amount which would have been receivable in the absence of
any such deduction or withholding.

7. Termination

Notwithstanding clause 5, the Facility may be terminated by the Bank at any time in which case the
commitment of the Bank shall expire immediately. In case of termination any outstanding, principal,
fees and interest under the Facility shall be repaid as follows:

	(i)	 	swingline account overdraft on
the relevant termination date as determined by the Bank and
	 
	(ii)	 	fixed short term loan or placement
at the last day of its respective term and
	 
	(iii)	 	any guarantee Issued shall terminate at the agreed
expiry date.

The Facility may also be terminated by the Bank upon occurrence of an Event of Default, in which
case all amounts outstanding would be charged Penalty Interest.

The Bank shall not be liable for any consequences of its decision to terminate the Facility, unless
if such decision reveals the Bank’s wilful misfeasance or gross negligence.

8. Bank’s General Terms and Conditions

In addition to the provisions of this Facility, the relations between the Borrower and the Bank
shall be governed by the General Business Conditions, which are known to the Borrower and have been
agreed upon by the Borrower at the opening of the account. In case of any discrepancies between
this Agreement and the General Business Conditions this Agreement shall prevail.

The Borrower acknowledges and approves that the Bank may record any telephone conversation and that
such recording may be used as evidence in court.

9. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

This Facility and any business transacted pursuant thereto shall be governed by German law.
Exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute arising hereunder is given to the courts of Frankfurt am
Main.EX-4.1

in an Officers’ Certificate of the Company and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of

pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Securities of that
series may be listed, or to conform to usage.

Section 2.03 Denominations; Provisions for Payment.

     The Securities shall be issuable as registered Securities and in the denominations of one
thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof, subject to Section 2.01(11). The
Securities of a particular series shall bear interest payable on the dates and at the rate
specified with respect to that series. Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.01, the
principal of and the interest on the Securities of any series, as well as any premium thereon in
case of redemption thereof prior to maturity, shall be payable in the coin or currency of the
United States of America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt, at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the United States, unless otherwise
specified with respect to any series of Securities, shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Unless otherwise provided
pursuant to Section 2.01, interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year composed of twelve 30-day months.

     The interest installment on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that series shall be paid to the
Person in whose name said Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment. Unless otherwise
provided in the terms of a series of Securities, at the option of the Company, payment of interest
may be mailed by check to the holders of the Securities of any series at their respective addresses
set forth in the Security Register (as herein defined) or wired if held by book-entry at Depository
Trust Company. In the event that any Security of a particular series or portion thereof is called
for redemption and the redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any
Interest Payment Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Security will be
paid upon presentation and surrender of such Security as provided in Section 3.03.

     Any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for,
on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of the same series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”)
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular

8

 

record date by virtue of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by
the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

          (1) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in
whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the
close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall
be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment,
and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest, such money when
deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as
in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest which shall not be more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of
the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date
and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be mailed, first class postage
prepaid, to each Securityholder at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register (as
hereinafter defined), not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been mailed
as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities
(or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and shall
be no longer payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

          (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any Securities in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such
Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such
manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     Unless otherwise set forth in a Board Resolution of the Company or one or more indentures
supplemental hereto establishing the terms of any series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01
hereof, the term “regular record date” as used in this Section with respect to a series of
Securities with respect to any Interest Payment Date for such series shall mean either the
fifteenth day of the month immediately preceding the month in which an Interest Payment Date
established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest Payment
Date is the first day of a month, or the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in
which an Interest Payment Date established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall
occur, if such Interest Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a month, whether or not such date is a
Business Day.

     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security of a series delivered under
this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security of such series
shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such
other Security.

Section 2.04 Execution and Authentication.

     Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an
Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee
authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless.

     A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the
certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the
Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for
authentication, together with a written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of
such Securities, signed by two Officers, and the Trustee in accordance with such written order
shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

     In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this
Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’
Certificate stating that the form and terms thereof have been established in conformity with the
provisions of this Indenture.

     The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such
Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities
under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee.

Section 2.05 Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     (a) Securities of any series may be exchanged upon presentation thereof at the office or
agency of the Company designated for such purpose in the United States, for other Securities of
such series of authorized denominations, and for a like aggregate principal amount, upon payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, all as provided
in this Section. In respect of any Securities so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall
execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange
therefor the Security or Securities of the same series that the Securityholder making the exchange
shall be entitled to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

     (b) The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency designated for such
purpose in the United States, or such other location designated by the Company, a register or
registers (herein referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register the Securities and the transfers of
Securities as in this Article provided and which at all reasonable times shall be open for
inspection by the Trustee. Unless otherwise specified in a supplemental indenture, the Trustee is
hereby appointed as “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfer of
Securities of each series.

     Upon surrender for transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company designated
for such purpose, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or
agency shall deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities of
the same series as the Security presented for a like aggregate principal amount.

10

 

     All Securities presented or surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer, as provided
in this Section, shall be accompanied (if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar) by
a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the
Security Registrar, duly executed by the registered holder or by such holder’s duly authorized
attorney in writing.

     (c) No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of
Securities, or issue of new Securities in case of partial redemption of any series, but the Company
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation
thereto, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.06, Section 3.03(b) and Section 9.04 not
involving any transfer.

     (d) The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, exchange or register the transfer of any
Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the
mailing of a notice of redemption of less than all the Outstanding Securities of the same series
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, nor (ii) to register the transfer
of or exchange any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for redemption except the
unredeemed portion of any Securities of any series being redeemed in part. The provisions of this
Section 2.05 are, with respect to any Global Security, subject to Section 2.11 hereof.

Section 2.06 Temporary Securities.

     Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities (printed, lithographed or
typewritten) of any authorized denomination. Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in
the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, but with such omissions,
insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined
by the Company. Every temporary Security of any series shall be executed by the Company and be
authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and
with like effect, as the definitive Securities of such series. Without unnecessary delay the
Company will execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any or all
temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor (without charge to the
holders), at the office or agency of the Company designated for the purpose, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an
equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of such series, unless the Company
advises the Trustee to the effect that definitive Securities need not be executed and furnished
until further notice from the Company. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of such series
shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series
authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.07 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities.

     In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Company (subject to the next succeeding sentence) shall execute, and upon the Company’s
request the Trustee (subject as aforesaid) shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the
same series, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for
the mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Security so destroyed, lost or
stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Security shall furnish to the

11

 

Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish
to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
the applicant’s Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may authenticate any such
substituted Security and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any Officer
of the Company. Upon the issuance of any substituted Security, the Company may require the payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith. In case any Security that has matured or is about to mature shall become mutilated or be
destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or
authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated
Security) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such
security or indemnity as they may require to save them harmless, and, in case of destruction, loss
or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Company and the Trustee of the destruction, loss or
theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof.

     Every replacement Security issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall constitute
an additional contractual obligation of the Company whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Security shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled
to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities
of the same series duly issued hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express
condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) any and
all other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to
the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other
securities without their surrender.

Section 2.08 Cancellation.

     All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange or registration of
transfer shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying agent, be delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and no Securities shall
be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of
this Indenture. On request of the Company at the time of such surrender, the Trustee shall deliver
to the Company canceled Securities held by the Trustee. In the absence of such request the Trustee
may dispose of canceled Securities in accordance with its standard procedures and deliver a
certificate of disposition to the Company. If the Company shall otherwise acquire any of the
Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the
indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation.

Section 2.09 Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give or be construed
to give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the Securities any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant,
condition or provision herein contained; all such covenants, conditions and provisions being for
the sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders of the Securities.

Section 2.10 Authenticating Agent.

     So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding there may be an
Authenticating Agent for any or all such series of Securities which the Trustee, with the consent
of the Company, shall have the right to appoint. Said Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to
act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange,
transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated
by the Trustee hereunder. All references in this Indenture to the authentication of Securities by
the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating Agent for such series.
Each Authenticating Agent shall be a corporation that has a combined capital and surplus, as most
recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it
is organized or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise
authorized under such laws to conduct such business and is subject to supervision or examination by
Federal or State authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately.

     Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the
Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time (and upon request by the Company shall)
terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility
of any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor Authenticating Agent
acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment
hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder
as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent pursuant hereto.

Section 2.11 Global Securities.

     (a) If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the Securities of a
particular series are issuable as a Global Security, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall, in accordance with Section 2.04, authenticate and deliver, a Global Security that (i) shall
represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, such
of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and that the aggregate
amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced
to reflect exchanges, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii)
shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instruction and
(iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Except as otherwise provided in
Section 2.11 of the Indenture, this Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to
another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee of such successor
Depositary.” Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or
decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee
in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein
or in the written request signed in the name of the Company, by two Officers thereof to be
delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04 or Section 2.06.

13

 

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05, the Global Security of a series may be
transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 2.05, only to another
nominee of the Depositary for such series, or to a successor Depositary for such series selected or
approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

     (c) If at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies the Company that it
is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such series or if at any time the Depositary
for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other
applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed by
the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such
condition, as the case may be, this Section 2.11 shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of
such series and the Company will execute, and subject to Section 2.05, the Trustee will
authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without
coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the
Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be represented
by a Global Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall no longer apply to the
Securities of such series. In such event the Company will execute and subject to Section 2.05, the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate evidencing such determination by the Company,
will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without
coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the
exchange of the Global Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without coupons,
in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Securities
in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security pursuant to this Section
2.11(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary,
pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the
Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in
whose names such Securities are so registered.

     (d) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to a particular series
of the Securities, the Company may execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’
Certificate directing the authorization and delivery thereof, shall authenticate and deliver the
Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized
denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global
Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security.

Section 2.12 No Obligation of the Trustee.

     (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 or other Person with respect to the
accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof,
with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities 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 the payment of any amount or delivery of any Securities (or
other security or property) under or with respect to such Securities. All notices and
communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the
Securities shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which

14

 

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.

     (b) The Trustee shall have no obligations 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 (including any transfers between or
among the 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 this Indenture, and to
examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements
hereof.

ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS

Section 3.01 Redemption.

     The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder on and after the dates
and in accordance with the terms established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

Section 3.02 Notice of Redemption.

     (a) In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may
be, a portion of the Securities of any series in accordance with the right reserved so to do, the
Company shall, or shall cause the Trustee to, give notice of such redemption to holders of the
Securities of such series to be redeemed by sending electronically or by mailing, first class
postage prepaid, a notice of such redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days before
the date fixed for redemption of that series to such holders at their last addresses as they shall
appear upon the Security Register unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be
redeemed. Any notice that is sent in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case,
failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for
redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the
case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption
provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish
the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction.

     Each such notice of redemption shall specify the date fixed for redemption and the redemption
price (or the manner of calculation thereof) at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed,
and shall state that payment of the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made
at the office or agency of the Company in the United States upon presentation and surrender of such
Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in
said notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the

15

 

redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the Securities of a
series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in
whole or in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed. In case any Security is
to be redeemed in part only, the notice that relates to such Security shall state the portion of
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date,
upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

     (b) If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the
Trustee at least 30 days’ notice in advance of the date fixed for redemption as to the aggregate
principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall
select, by lot on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair
and that may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to one thousand U.S. dollars
($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a
denomination larger than $1,000, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify
the Company in writing of the numbers of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part.

     The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its
behalf by any Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the
Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set
forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee
or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given
by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or
permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security
Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to
enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the
provisions of this Section.

Section 3.03 Payment Upon Redemption.

     (a) If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the
Securities or portions of Securities of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall
become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable
redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and interest on
such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for
redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such redemption price and accrued
interest with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and surrender of
such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the
notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption price for such
series, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (but if the date
fixed for redemption is an interest payment date, the interest installment payable on such date
shall be payable to the registered holder at the close of business on the applicable record date
pursuant to Section 2.03).

     (b) Upon presentation of any Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and the office or agency where the
Security is presented shall deliver to the holder thereof, at the expense of the

16

 

Company, a new Security of the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented.

Section 3.04 Sinking Fund.

     The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the
retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01
for Securities of such series.

     The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any
series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of
such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as
an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the
cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 3.05.
Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as
provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

Section 3.05 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

     The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any Securities
previously called for redemption) and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series that have
been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or
through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such
Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with
respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such
Securities as provided for by the terms of such series, provided that such Securities have
not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by
the Trustee at the redemption price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation
of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 3.06 Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

     Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities,
the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next
ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of the series, the portion
thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series
pursuant to Section 3.05 and the basis for such credit and will, together with such Officers’
Certificate, deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before
each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon
such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.02 and cause notice of the
redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner
provided in Section 3.02. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities
shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 3.03.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN COVENANTS

Section 4.01 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

17

 

     The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of and any premium
and interest on the Securities of that series at the time and place and in the manner provided
herein and established with respect to such Securities.

Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Company agrees to maintain an
office or agency in the United States with respect to each such series, where (i) Securities of
that series may be presented for payment, (ii) Securities of that series may be presented as
hereinabove authorized for registration of transfer and exchange, and (iii) notices and demands to
or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be given or
served, such designation to continue with respect to such office or agency until the Company shall,
by written notice signed by an Officer and delivered to the Trustee, designate some other office or
agency for such purposes or any of them. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such
required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such
presentations, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, notices and demands.

Section 4.03 Paying Agents.

     (a) If the Company shall appoint one or more paying agents for all or any series of the
Securities, other than the Trustee, the Company will cause each such paying agent to execute and
deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to
the provisions of this Section:

          (1) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of
and any premium or interest on the Securities of that series (whether such sums have been paid to
it by the Company or by any other obligor of such Securities) in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled thereto;

          (2) that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other
obligor of such Securities) to make any payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on
the Securities of that series when the same shall be due and payable;

          (3) that it will, at any time during the continuance of any failure referred to in the
preceding paragraph (a)(2) above, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent; and

          (4) that it will perform all other duties of paying agent as set forth in this Indenture.

     (b) If the Company shall act as its own paying agent with respect to any series of the
Securities, it will on or before each due date of the principal of and any premium or interest on
Securities of that series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay such principal and any premium or interest so becoming due
on Securities of that series until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of
as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of such action, or any failure (by it or
any other obligor on such Securities) to take such action. Whenever the Company shall

18

 

have one or more paying agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date
of the principal of and any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with the
paying agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium or interest so becoming due,
such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or
interest, and (unless such paying agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of this action or failure so to act.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the agreement to hold sums
in trust as provided in this Section is subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, and (ii) the
Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any paying agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums
held in trust by the Company or such paying agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the
same terms and conditions as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such paying
agent; and, upon such payment by any paying agent to the Trustee, such paying agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Section 4.04 Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee.

     The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will
appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.10, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a
Trustee hereunder.

the provisions of Article Ten hereof are complied with.

the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate signed by its principal
executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer stating whether or
not to the best knowledge of the signer thereof the Company is in default in the performance and

addresses of the holders of each series of Securities as of such regular record date,
provided

19

 

that the Company shall not be obligated to furnish or cause to furnish such list at any time
that the list shall not differ in any respect from the most recent list furnished to the Trustee by
the Company and (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing within 30 days after
the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not
more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however,
that, in either case, no such list need be furnished for any series for which the Trustee shall be

Securities Exchange Commission had the Company continued to have been subject to such reporting
requirements. In such event, such reports shall be provided to the Trustee within 15 days after the
dates applicable to a registrant that is not an accelerated filer or a large accelerated filer on
which the Company would have been required to provide reports to the Securities and Exchange
Commission had it continued to have been subject to such reporting requirements. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Company shall also comply with the other provisions of Section 314(a) of the Trust
Indenture Act.

Commission, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from to time by the Securities

     (a) Whenever used herein with respect to Securities of a particular series, “Event of Default”
means any one or more of the following events that has occurred and is continuing:

          (1) the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the
Securities of that series, as and when the same shall become due and payable, and continuance of
such default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that a valid extension of
an interest payment period by the Company in accordance with the terms of any indenture
supplemental hereto, shall not constitute a default in the payment of interest for this purpose;

          (2) the Company defaults (a) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any
of the Securities of that series as and when the same shall become due and payable whether at
maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise, or (b) in any payment required by any
sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series;

          (3) the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements with
respect to that series contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to that
series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof (other than a covenant or

21

 

agreement that has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or
more series of Securities other than such series) for a period of 60 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and stating that such notice is a
“Notice of Default” hereunder, shall have been given in writing to the Company by the Trustee, or
to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities
of that series at the time Outstanding;

          (4) if the Securities of the series are convertible into shares of common stock or other
securities of the Company, failure by the Company to deliver common stock or the other securities
when the holder or holders of such Securities elect to convert such Securities into shares of
common stock or other securities of the Company;

relief against the Company in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all

or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or

          (7) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series.

     (b) In each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in clauses (5) or
(6) above), unless the principal of all the Securities of that series shall have already become due
and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount
of the Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by such Securityholders), may declare the principal (or, if the
Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal
amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) of, premium, if any, and accrued interest,
if any, on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such
declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, notwithstanding
anything contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of that series or established with
respect to that series pursuant to Section 2.01 to the contrary. If an Event of Default specified
in clauses (5) or (6) above occurs, all unpaid principal (or, if the Securities of such series are
Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the
terms of such series) of, premium, if any, and accrued interest, if any, on, all the Securities of

declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder.

     (c) At any time after the principal of the Securities of that series shall have been so
declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall
have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to
the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: (i)
the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments
of interest upon all the Securities of that series and the principal of (and

22

 

premium, if any, on) any and all Securities of that series that shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to the
extent that such payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of
interest, at the rate per annum or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount
Securities) expressed in the Securities of that series (or at the respective rates of interest or
Yields to Maturity of all the Securities, as the case may be) to the date of such payment or
deposit) and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06, and (ii) any and all Events of
Default under the Indenture with respect to such series, other than the non-payment of principal,
premium, if any, or interest on Securities of that series that (or, if any Securities are Original
Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof)
shall not have become due by their terms, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section
6.06.

     No such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or
impair any right consequent thereon.

     (d) In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right with respect to Securities
of that series under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned
because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company and the Trustee shall be restored
respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of
the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 6.02 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

     (a) The Company covenants that (1) in case it shall default in the payment of any installment
of interest on any of the Securities of a series, or any payment required by any sinking or
analogous fund established with respect to that series as and when the same shall have become due
and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or (2) in case it shall
default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of a
series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of
a series or upon redemption or upon declaration or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the
Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities of that series,
the whole amount that then shall have been become due and payable on all such Securities for
principal (and premium, if any) or interest, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the
overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent that payment of such interest is
enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum
expressed in the Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall
be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of collection, and the amount payable to
the Trustee under Section 7.06.

     (b) If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in
its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any
action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may
prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such
judgment or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of that series
and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner

23

 

provided by law out of the property of the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of
that series, wherever situated.

     (c) In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization,
readjustment, arrangement, composition or judicial proceedings affected the Company, or its
creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power to intervene in such proceedings and take any
action therein that may be permitted by the court and shall (except as may be otherwise provided by
law) be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the holders of Securities of such
series allowed for the entire amount due and payable by the Company under the Indenture at the date
of institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by
the Company after such date, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claim, and to distribute the same after the deduction of the amount payable
to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the holders of Securities of such series to make
such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to such Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it under
Section 7.06.

     (d) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the
terms established with respect to Securities of that series, may be enforced by the Trustee without
the possession of any of such Securities, or the production thereof at any trial or other
proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 payment to the Trustee of any amounts due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable
benefit of the holders of the Securities of such series.

     In case of an Event of Default hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect
and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as
the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either at law or
in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
agreement contained in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this
Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture
or by law.

     Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of that series or the rights of any holder
thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any
such proceeding.

Section 6.03 Application of Moneys Collected.

     Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article with respect to a particular
series of Securities shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the
Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such moneys on account of principal (or premium, if
any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities of that series, and notation thereon the
payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

24

 

     FIRST: To the payment of costs and expenses of collection and of all amounts payable to the
Trustee under Section 7.06; and

     SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities of such series for
principal and any premium and interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money
has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts
due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively.

Section 6.04 Limitation on Suits.

     No holder of any Security of any series shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or
under or with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any
other remedy hereunder, unless (i) such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written
notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the Securities of such
series specifying such Event of Default, as hereinbefore provided; (ii) the holders of not less
than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have
made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name
as trustee hereunder; (iii) such holder or holders shall have offered to the Trustee such
reasonable indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred
therein or thereby; and (iv) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity, shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and (v)
during such 60 day period, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that
series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary or any other provisions of this
Indenture, the right of any holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of and any
premium and (subject to Section 2.03) interest on such Security (whether upon redemption,
repurchase, maturity or otherwise) or payment or delivery of any amounts due upon conversion of
Securities of any series that are convertible into shares of common stock or other securities, as
therein provided, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security (or in the case
of redemption or repurchase, on the redemption date or repurchase date, respectively), or to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery on or after such respective
dates; redemption date or repurchase date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of
such holder and by accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and
covenanted by the taker and holder of every Security of such series with every other such taker and
holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Securities of such series shall have any
right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other of such Securities, or to
obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any
right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and
common benefit of all holders of Securities of such series. For the protection and enforcement of
the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to
such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

     (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all powers and remedies given by this
Article to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed
cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the
holders of the Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or
observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established
with respect to such Securities.

     (b) No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Securities to exercise
any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall
impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or on
acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.04, every power and remedy given
by this Article or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time,
and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Securityholders.

Section 6.06 Control by Securityholders.

     The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the
time Outstanding, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to such series;
provided, however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of
law or with this Indenture or be unduly prejudicial to the rights of holders of Securities of such
series not consenting; and provided, further, that the Trustee may take any other
action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to the
taking of any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to reasonable indemnification
satisfactory to the Trustee against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such
action. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Officers
of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal
liability. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series
at the time Outstanding affected thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may on behalf
of the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default in the performance of
any of the covenants contained herein or established pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to such
series and its consequences, except for (a) a default in the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on, any of the Securities of that series (whether upon redemption, repurchase,
maturity or otherwise) or payment or delivery of any amounts due upon conversion of Securities of
any series that are convertible into shares of common stock or other securities as and when the
same shall become due by the terms of such Securities otherwise than by acceleration (unless such
default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and
principal and any premium has been deposited with the Trustee (in accordance with Section 6.01(c)),
or (b) if the Securities of that series are convertible into shares of common stock or other
securities, the failure by the Company to deliver common stock or the other securities, as and when
they shall become deliverable by the terms of such Securities. Upon any such waiver, the default
covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the
Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

26

 

Section 6.07 Undertaking to Pay Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Securities by such holder’s
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in
any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in
such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses
made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of
Securityholders, holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment
of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series, on or after
the respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to this Indenture.

ARTICLE VII

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

Section 7.01 Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

     (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities
of a series and after the curing of all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that
series that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with respect to the Securities of such
series such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no
implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of
Default with respect to the Securities of a series has occurred (that has not been cured or
waived), the Trustee shall exercise with respect to Securities of that series such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own
affairs.

     (b) 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:

          (1) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series
and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default with respect to that series that may
have occurred:

               (i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of such
series be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not
be liable with respect to the Securities of such series except for the performance of such duties
and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

               (ii) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may with respect to
the Securities of such series conclusively rely, as to the truth of the

27

 

statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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 that 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 requirement of this Indenture;

          (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 shall be proved that the
Trustee, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

          (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by
it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (determined as provided in
Section 8.04) 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 that series; and

          (4) None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for
believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the
terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 7.02 Certain Rights of Trustee.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

     (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining
from acting upon any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed 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. The Trustee shall receive and retain financial reports
and statements of the Company as provided herein, but shall have no duty to review or analyze such
reports or statements to determine compliance under covenants or other obligations of the Company.

     (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 13.07. The Trustee
shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such
certificate or opinion.

     (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

     (d) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance

performance of the Company with respect to the covenants contained in Article Four. In addition,
the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default except (i) any Default or
Event of Default occurring pursuant to 6.01(a)(2) or (ii) any Default or Event of Default of which
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notification from the Company or
any Holder of such Default or Event of Default at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice
references the Securities and this Indenture.

     (g) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee,
including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in
each of its capacities (including as Paying Agent) hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and
other Person employed to act hereunder.

     (h) Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 5.03 is for
informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute
constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the
Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate).

     (i) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ 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 Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person
authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
such certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

     (j) 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.

     (k) 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 reasonable control, including, without limitation, 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.

Section 7.03 Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or Securities.

     (a) The recitals contained herein and in the Securities shall be taken as the statements of
the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same.

     (b) The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture
or of the Securities.

     (c) The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any of
the Securities or of the proceeds of such Securities, or for the use or application of any moneys
paid over by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or

29

 

established pursuant to Section 2.01, or for the use or application of any moneys received by
any paying agent other than the Trustee.

Section 7.04 May Hold Securities.

     The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee, paying agent or Security Registrar.

Section 7.05 Moneys Held in Trust.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until
used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received,
but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall
be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder except such as it may
agree with the Company to pay thereon.

Section 7.06 Compensation and Reimbursement.

     (a) The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled
to, such compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust), as the Company, and the Trustee may from time to
time agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby
created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the
Trustee, and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company will pay or reimburse the
Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made
by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in
its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or
bad faith. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors
and employees) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred
without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim of liability in the premises.

     (b) The obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee
and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances shall
constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a
lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee
as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities. The
provisions of this Section 7.06 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the
termination of this Indenture.

     (c) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after a Default specified in
6.01(a)(5) or (6) occurs, such expenses (including the charges and expenses of its counsel) and the
compensation for such services shall be paid to the extent allowed under any Bankruptcy Law and are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

30

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions
of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such matter
(unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of
negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee and such certificate, in the
absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee
for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture
upon the faith thereof.

Section 7.08 Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

     If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of Section
310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply with
the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 7.09 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities issued hereunder which
shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States of America or any State or Territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a
corporation or other Person permitted to act as trustee by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus of at least 50 million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or
examination by Federal, State, Territorial, or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Company may not, nor may any
Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company,
serve as Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in Section 7.10.

Section 7.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed, may at any time resign with respect to
the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company and by
transmitting notice of resignation electronically or by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the
Securityholders of such series, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register.
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee
with respect to Securities of such series by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. If no successor
trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing
of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series,
or any Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities
for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice,
if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

31

 

     (b) In case at any time any one of the following shall occur:

          (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 7.08 after written request
therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or
Securities for at least six months; or

          (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09
and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such
Securityholder; or

          (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or
insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its
property shall be appointed or consented to, or any public officer shall take charge or control of
the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to all
Securities and appoint a successor trustee by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, or, unless the
Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided herein, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide
holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of that holder and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if
any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

     (c) The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at
the time Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying
the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee for such series with the consent of
the Company.

     (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee with
respect to the Securities of a series pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section
7.11.

     (e) Any successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be appointed with respect to
the Securities of one or more series or all of such series, and at any time there shall be only one
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series.

Section 7.11 Acceptance of Appointment By Successor.

     (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all
Securities, every such successor trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor
trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights, powers, and trusts of the
retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property
and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

     (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities
of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor trustee
with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture
supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1)
shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to
vest in, each successor trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee
with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
trustee relates, (2) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to
confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this
Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts
hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental
indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee
shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts
hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any
act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; and upon the execution and
delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates have
no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the
duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture, and each such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to
which the appointment of such successor trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any
successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor trustee relates.

     (c) Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all
such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may
be.

     (d) No successor trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance
such successor trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

     (e) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the
Company shall transmit notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder by mail, first class
postage prepaid, to the Securityholders, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security
Register. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be
transmitted at the expense of the Company.

Section 7.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

     Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation
shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions of
Section 7.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of
the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Securities shall
have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and
deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had
itself authenticated such Securities.

Section 7.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company.

     The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any
creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has
resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the
extent included therein.

Section 7.14 Notice of Defaults.

     If a Default occurs and is continuing hereunder with respect to Securities of any series and
if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to each
holder of such Securities notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs provided,
however, that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 6.01(3) with
respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30
days after the occurrence thereof. Except in the case of a default in payment of principal of or
interest on any Security (whether upon redemption, repurchase, maturity or otherwise) (including
payments pursuant to the redemption or repurchase provisions of such Security, if any) or payment
or delivery of any amounts due upon conversion of Securities of any series that are convertible
into shares of common stock or other securities, the Trustee may withhold the 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 the holders of such Securities.

ARTICLE VIII

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

Section 8.01 Evidence of Action by Securityholders.

     Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a majority or specified
percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series may take any
action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver
or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders
of such majority or specified percentage of that series have joined therein may be evidenced by any
instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such holders of Securities of
that series in Person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing.

34

 

     If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders of any series any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Company may, at its option,
as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series for the
determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such
a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record
at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes
of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities of
that series have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities
of that series shall be computed as of the record date; provided, however, that no
such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed
effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
than six months after the record date.

Section 8.02 Proof of Execution by Securityholders.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any instrument by a
Securityholder (such proof will not require notarization) or his agent or proxy and proof of the
holding by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:

     (a) The fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in
any reasonable manner acceptable to the Company.

     (b) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register of such Securities or
by a certificate of the Security Registrar thereof.

     (c) The Trustee or the Company may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in
this Section as it shall deem necessary.

Section 8.03 Who May be Deemed Owners.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the
Trustee, any paying agent and any Security Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name
such Security shall be registered upon the books of the Company as the absolute owner of such
Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership
or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving
payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 2.03)
interest on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor
any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 8.04 Certain Securities Owned by Company Disregarded.

     In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities
of a particular series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, the
Securities of that series that are owned by the Company or any other obligor on

35

 

the Securities of that series or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by or under common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of
that series shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such
determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in
relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities of such series that the Trustee
actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. The Securities so owned that have been pledged
in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section, if the pledgee shall
establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such
Securities and that the pledgee is not a Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by
or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In case of a
dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be
full protection to the Trustee.

Section 8.05 Actions Binding on Future Securityholders.

     At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section
8.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection
with such action, any holder of a Security of that series that is shown by the evidence to be
included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing
written notice with the Trustee, and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such
action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of
any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and
owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange therefor, on registration of
transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto
is made upon such Security. Any action taken by the holders of the majority or percentage in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in
connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the
holders of all the Securities of that series.

ARTICLE IX

     (h) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the

Resolutions, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or

Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each holder of a Security
affected by such event, at the address of such holder as it appears in the Security Register, not
earlier than the earliest date, and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of
such notice.

     In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it
shall be impracticable to give such notice to holders of Securities by mail, then such notification
as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such holder
for every purpose hereunder. In any case where notice to holders of Securities is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice mailed to any particular
holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other holders of
Securities given as provided herein.

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

Section 13.05 Governing Law.

     This Indenture and each Security shall be deemed to be a contract made under the internal laws
of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of
said State.

Section 13.06 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

     The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and

Section 13.07 Compliance Certificates and Opinions.

     (a) Upon any application or demand by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any
of the provisions of this Indenture, the Company, shall furnish to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the
proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of
such counsel all such conditions precedent have been complied with, except that in the case of any
such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by
any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional
certificate or opinion need be furnished.

     (b) Each certificate or opinion provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee
with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant in this Indenture shall include (1) a
statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;
(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the
statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (3) a statement that, in
the opinion of such Person, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable
him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been
complied with; and (4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such
condition or covenant has been complied with.

Section 13.08 Payments on Business Days.

     Except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution, and as set forth
in an Officers’ Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental to this
Indenture, in any case where the date of maturity of interest or principal of any Security or the
date of redemption or repurchase of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then payment of
interest or principal (and premium, if any) (whether upon repurchase, redemption, maturity, or
otherwise) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if
made on the nominal date of maturity, redemption, or repurchase, and no interest shall accrue for
the period after such nominal date.

Section 13.09 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

     If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with
the duties imposed by Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties shall control.

Section 13.10 Counterparts.

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

Section 13.11 Separability.

     In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of
any series shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this

44

 

Indenture or of such Securities, but this Indenture and such Securities shall be construed as
if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.

Section 13.12 Assignment.

     The Company will have the right at all times to assign any of its rights or obligations under
this Indenture to a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, provided
that, in the event of any such assignment, the Company, will remain liable for all such
obligations. Subject to the foregoing, the Indenture is binding upon and inures to the benefit of
the parties thereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Indenture may not otherwise
be assigned by the parties thereto.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed all as
of the day and year first above written.
