Table of Contents

 (f) The Company may set any day as the record date for the purpose of determining
the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities
of such series. With regard to any record date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to give or
take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. With regard to any action that may be given or taken hereunder only by Holders of a requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series (or
their duly appointed agents) and for which a record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company may, at its option, set an expiration date after which no such action purported to be given or taken by any Holder shall be effective hereunder
unless given or taken on or prior to such expiration date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such date (or their duly appointed agents). On or prior to any expiration date set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Company may, on one or more occasions at its option, extend such date to any later date, but not beyond 90 days. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent any Holder (or any duly appointed agent thereof) from giving or taking, after any
expiration date, any action identical to, or, at any time, contrary to or different from, any action, given or taken, or purported to have been given or taken, hereunder by a Holder on or prior to such date, in which event the Company may set a
record date in respect thereof pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the Trust Indenture Act, the Company shall not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any action to be
given or taken by Holders pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02 or 5.05. 
 Section 1.05. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 

(a) the Trustee or the Securities Administrator by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, at its Corporate Trust Office; or 

(b) the Company by the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
(unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in paragraph (20) of the back of the Form of Security set forth
in Exhibit A hereto to the attention of the Corporate Secretary or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, by the Company; provided, however, that such instrument
will be considered properly given if submitted by facsimile. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail (so long as they are provided in a manually signed document on the applicable letterhead that has been scanned in
and attached to such e-mail in a format that is readable by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, including but not limited to .pdf format),

Table of Contents

 
facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that (a) the party providing such written instructions, subsequent to such transmission of written
instructions, shall provide the originally executed instructions or directions to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, in a timely manner, and (b) such originally executed instructions or directions shall be signed by an
authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. If the party elects to give the Trustee or the Securities Administrator e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, in its sole discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s or the Securities Administrator’s, as applicable, understanding of such instructions shall be deemed
controlling. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s or the Securities Administrator’s, as applicable, reliance upon and
compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic
methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, acting on unauthorized instructions,
and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties. 
 Section 1.06. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a
Security affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice, or, if the Security is
registered in the name of DTC or another Depository, or their respective nominees, if delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC or such other Depository. 

If, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders of
Securities when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such manner of giving such notice as shall be acceptable to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall constitute sufficient
giving of such notice. 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 so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. 
 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 shall be filed with the Securities Administrator, but such
filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

Section 1.07. Language of Notices, Etc. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver,
Act of Holders or other document required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

issuable in global form, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding clause (i) of Section 3.01 and the provisions of Section 3.02, any such Security shall represent such of the Outstanding Securities of
such series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from
time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Securities Administrator in such

hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 If a Book-Entry Security – “This Security is

in or pursuant to such supplemental indenture referred to above and (subject to Section 3.03) set forth in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided,
a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series; provided, however, that unless such additional notes are issued under a separate CUSIP number, either such additional notes must be part of the same
“issue” for U.S. federal income tax purposes or must be issued pursuant to a “qualified reopening” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Securities may differ between series in respect of any matters. 

Section 3.02. Denominations. The denomination of each series of Securities issued as contemplated by
Section 3.01 shall be set forth in the applicable supplemental indenture. 
 Section 3.03. Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Officer. The signature of any of such officer on the Securities may be manual or by facsimile. 

Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company
shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 

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 Securities Administrator for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Securities Administrator in accordance with the Company Order shall
authenticate and deliver such Securities. 
 In authenticating such Securities, and/or accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, 

  
 23 

Table of Contents

 (a) that all conditions precedent in this Indenture to the issuance and
authentication of the Securities have been complied with by the Company; and 
 (b) that such Securities, when authenticated
and delivered by the Securities Administrator and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to customary qualifications specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in
accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. If such
forms or terms have been so established, the Securities Administrator shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Securities Administrator’s or the
Trustee’s rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or will otherwise affect the Trustee or the Securities Administrator in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to either the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator, in either of their sole discretion. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.01 and of the
preceding paragraphs, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraphs at or prior to
the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 

A Company Order delivered in the circumstances set forth in the preceding paragraphs may provide that Securities which are the
subject thereof will be authenticated and delivered by the Securities Administrator on original issue from time to time upon the written order of persons designated in such Company Order, and that such persons are authorized to determine, consistent
with the applicable supplemental indenture, such terms and conditions of said Securities as are specified in such Company Order, provided the foregoing procedure is acceptable to the Securities Administrator. 

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that such Security is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Securities Administrator for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09 together with an Officer’s Certificate (which need not be
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never
be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

shall, unless otherwise provided therein, be delivered to either (i) the depository or common depository (the “Common Depository”), for the benefit of DTC or Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable, or (ii) the Securities
Administrator as custodian for such Common Depository, in any such case, for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Securities (or to such other accounts as they may direct). 

Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company
may execute, and upon Company Order the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of
the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued in registered form and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by
their execution of such Securities. 
 Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be exchanged
in accordance with the provisions of the following paragraphs), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of
definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company maintained
pursuant to Section 10.02 in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series the Company shall execute and the Securities Administrator
shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 Without
unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary global Security of a series (the “Exchange Date”), the Company shall deliver to the Securities
Administrator definitive Securities of such series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall be
surrendered by the Common Depository to the Securities Administrator, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities of such series without charge and the Securities
Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such temporary global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion
of such temporary global Security to be exchanged; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, upon such presentation by the Common Depository, such temporary global Security is accompanied by
a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by Euroclear as to the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to be exchanged and a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and
signed by Clearstream as to the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to be exchanged, each in the form set forth in Exhibit B to this Indenture. The definitive Securities to

Table of Contents

 
be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global Security shall be in registered form or permanent global registered form, or any combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by
Section 3.01, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof. 
 Unless
otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, the interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series in a temporary global Security shall be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor following the
Exchange Date when the account holder instructs Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to request such exchange on his behalf and delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit C to
this Indenture, dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be available from the offices of Euroclear and Clearstream, the Securities Administrator and each Paying Agent. Unless otherwise specified in
such temporary global Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation
and the like in the event that such Person does not take delivery of such definitive Securities in person at the offices of Euroclear or Clearstream. 

Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to
the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any interest payable on a
temporary global Security on an Interest Payment Date for Securities of such series occurring prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable to Euroclear and Clearstream on such Interest Payment Date upon delivery by Euroclear and
Clearstream to the Securities Administrator of a certificate or certificates in the form set forth in Exhibit C to this Indenture, for credit without further interest on or after such Interest Payment Date to the respective accounts of the Persons
who are the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security on such Interest Payment Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit B to this Indenture. Any
interest so received by Euroclear and Clearstream and not paid as herein provided shall be returned to the Securities Administrator immediately prior to the expiration of two years after such Interest Payment Date in order to be repaid to the
Company. 
 Section 3.05. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be
kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency to be maintained by the Company in accordance with Section 10.02 being herein sometimes
collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Securities
Administrator is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 

If and to the extent required under Luxembourg law, the Company shall cause to be kept at its registered office in Luxembourg
a register of registered notes, which shall be a duplicate copy of the Security Register, and the Security Registrar shall provide, on an annual basis or more frequently upon the reasonable request of the Company, a duplicate copy of the Security

Register. In the event of a conflict between the register of registered notes kept at the registered office and the Security Register, the Security Register shall control for the purposes of this
Indenture. 
 Upon due surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency
maintained pursuant to Section 10.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. 

At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable only
as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interest in a permanent global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form and
denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Securities Administrator
definitive Securities of that series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such permanent global Security or the portion to be exchanged, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be
so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered by the Common Depository or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Securities Administrator as the Company’s agent for such
purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities of the same series without charge and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global
Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such permanent global Security to be exchanged, provided, however, that no such exchanges
may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date. Promptly following any such exchange in part and any endorsement
thereon to reflect the amount represented by such exchange, such permanent global Security shall be returned by the Securities Administrator to the Common Depository or such other depositary or Common Depository referred to above in accordance with
the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date
and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted
Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or
proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as otherwise specified or contemplated
by Section 3.01, any Book-Entry Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to this Section 3.05 or Section 3.04, 9.06 and 11.10 for Securities registered in the name of, and a transfer of a Book Entry Security or any series may be
registered to, any Person other than the Depository for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Book-Entry Security or if at any time such
Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and the Company notifies the Securities Administrator that it is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Securities
Administrator a Company Order that such Book-Entry Security shall be so exchangeable and the transfer thereof so registrable or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, with respect to the Securities of such
series. Upon the occurrence in respect of any Book-Entry Security of any series of any one or more of the conditions specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or such other conditions as may be specified as
contemplated by Section 3.01 for such series, such Book-Entry Security may be exchanged for Securities registered in the names of, and the transfer of such Book-Entry Security may be registered to, such Persons (including Persons other than the
Depository with respect to such series and its nominees) as such Depository shall direct. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, any Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in
lieu of, any Book-Entry Security shall also be a Book-Entry Security and shall bear the legend specified in Section 2.04 except for any Security authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or upon registration of transfer of, Book-Entry
Security pursuant to the preceding sentence. 
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the
Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar or any transfer agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Securities Administrator and the Security Registrar or any
transfer agent duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall
be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange
of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.04, 9.06 and 11.10 not involving any transfer. 
 The Company
shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending at the
close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being

 Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company, the Securities
Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or
applicable United States Federal or state securities law. None of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar or the Paying Agent shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any
restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depository participants or beneficial owners of interests 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. 
 Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Securities Administrator, the Company shall execute, and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Security of the same series
and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding. 
 If there shall have been
delivered to the Company and the Securities Administrator (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Securities Administrator that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver,
in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding. 

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company
in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under
this Section, 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 Securities Administrator)
connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and any such new Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section
are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

 Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, interest, if any, on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the
Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest; provided, however, that each installment of interest (if any) on any Security may at the
Company’s option be paid by (i) mailing a check for such interest, payable to the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.08, to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register or (ii) transfer to an
account maintained by such Person inside the United States; provided, however, that if payment is to be made pursuant to (ii) above, the Securities Administrator shall have received written wire instructions by no later than the Regular Record
Date preceding such Interest Payment Date. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of
payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 3.01, every permanent global Security or Book-Entry Security will provide that interest (if any) payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to DTC, Euroclear and or Clearstream, as the case may be, with respect to that portion of
such permanent global Security held for its account by Cede & Co. or the Common Depository, as the case may be, for the purpose of permitting such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such permanent global Security or
Book-Entry Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is
payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for or deferred or cancelled (if permitted pursuant to the terms of the series of such Securities as established pursuant to the supplemental indenture issued pursuant to Section 3.01), on
any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by
the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below. 
 (a) The Company may elect to make
payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (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 and the Securities Administrator in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed
payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Securities Administrator an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the
Securities Administrator for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, 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 Company
shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Securities

Table of Contents

 
Administrator of such Special Record Date, and the Securities Administrator, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause a copy of such notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at the Holder’s address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such
Special Record Date. The Securities Administrator may, in addition, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a newspaper published in the English language customarily published on each
Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of 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 the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at
the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 

(b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series 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 is given by the Company to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator
of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Securities Administrator. 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.05, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon
registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry any rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

Section 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent and any agent of the Company, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name
such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest (if any) on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever,
whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying
Agent, or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Except as provided in Section 3.05, owners of any
beneficial interests in a Book-Entry Security shall not be entitled to have Securities represented by such Book-Entry Security registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in certificated
form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under this Indenture. Members or participants in the Depository shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Book-Entry Security held on their behalf by the
Depository, and such Depository may be treated by the Company, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar, the Paying
Agent or the Trustee as the Holder of such

furnished by the Depository, as a Holder, with respect to such Book-Entry Security or impair, as between the Depository and owners of beneficial interests in such Book-Entry Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of

for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for the delivery to any member of or participants in the Depository of any notice permitted or required to be given to the Holders of the
Securities under this Indenture. 
 Section 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment,
redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Securities Administrator, be delivered to the Securities Administrator and such Securities shall be promptly cancelled by the Securities
Administrator. The Company may at any time deliver to the Securities Administrator for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Securities Administrator. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All
cancelled Securities held by the Securities Administrator shall be destroyed by the Securities Administrator unless other instructions are furnished to the Securities Administrator by a Company Order. No cancelled Securities may be reissued or
resold.

Securities Administrator or any agent of the Company or the Securities Administrator, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depository or impair, as between a Depository and holders of
beneficial interests in any Book-Entry Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depository (or its nominee) as Holder of such Book-Entry Security. 

Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the
Securities of any series, interest, if any on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Indenture. 
 Section 3.12. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP”
numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Company and the Securities Administrator shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made
as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that a reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Securities Registrar and the Paying Agent of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 

ARTICLE 4 
 LEGAL
DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 4.01.
Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Unless the supplemental indenture issued pursuant to Section 3.01 specifies that this Section 4.01 and either or both of Section 4.02 and Section 4.03 do not
apply to a given series of Securities, the Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate confirming the due authorization by the Company, elect to have either Section 4.02 or
Section 4.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities of such series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 4. 

Section 4.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 4.01 hereof of
the option applicable to this Section 4.02, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities
of the series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness
represented by the outstanding Securities of the series, which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 4.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and
(b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities of the series and this Indenture (and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, on demand of, at the expense of and as prepared by the Company (such expense
being documented), shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 

(a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of the series to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or
interest (if any) or Additional Amounts (if any) on, such Securities when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 4.04 hereof;

 Subject to compliance with this Article 4, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 4.02
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 4.03 hereof. 
 Section 4.03. Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 4.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 4.03, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 hereof, be released
from each of its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 10.10, 10.12 and 8.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Securities of the series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 hereof are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof)
in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of the series, the Company may
omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any
reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute an Event of Default under Section 5.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture
and such Securities will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 4.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 4.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 4.04 hereof, Section 5.01(d), Section 5.01(e) and Section 5.01(f) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. The Company’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall survive an exercise under Section 4.01.

Defeasance under either Section 4.02 or 4.03 hereof: 
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Securities
Administrator, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in Dollars, non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants as appointed by the Company (a copy of which shall be provided to the Trustee), to pay the principal of, and interest (if any) and Additional Amounts (if any) on, the outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the stated
date for payment thereof or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Securities are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular Redemption Date; 

(b) the Company must deliver to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel of recognized standing with
respect to U.S. federal income tax matters confirming that the Holders and beneficial owners of the outstanding Securities of the relevant series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal
Defeasance or Legal or Covenant Defeasance; with respect to a Legal Defeasance, such opinion of counsel must be based upon a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a change in law to that effect;

Table of Contents

 (c) no Default or Event of Default, if any, with respect to the Securities of
such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit; 
 (d) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee and the Securities Administrator to have a conflicting interest for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any of the Company’s securities; and

conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Section 4.05, the “Securities Administrator”) pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Securities will be held in trust and applied by the Securities Administrator, in accordance with the provisions of
such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Securities Administrator may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal, interest (if any) and Additional Amounts (if any), but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee and the Securities Administrator against any duly documented tax, fee or other
charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof or the principal, interest (if any) and Additional Amounts (if any) received in respect thereof other than any
such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 4 to the contrary, the Securities Administrator will deliver or pay to the Company
from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 4.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants as
appointed by the Company expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Securities Administrator (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 4.04(a) hereof, a copy of which shall be provided to the Trustee), are in excess
of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 4.06. Repayment to Company. Any money deposited with the Securities Administrator or any Paying Agent, or
then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, interest (if any) or Additional Amounts (if any) on, any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, interest (if any) or Additional Amounts (if any)
has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the

Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Securities Administrator or such Paying Agent,
before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company (such expense being documented) cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 

Section 4.07. Reinstatement. If the Securities Administrator or Paying Agent is unable to apply any Dollars or
non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.02 or 4.03 hereof until such time as the Securities Administrator or
Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, or interest (if any) or Additional Amounts
(if any) on, any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Securities Administrator or Paying Agent.

 Section 5.02. Acceleration. Upon the occurrence and continuation of
any Event of Default, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the affected series may declare the principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series
to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), in accordance with Section 1.05 hereof. Upon any such declaration, the Securities of such series shall become due and payable
immediately. 
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to outstanding Securities of any series
has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series, by
written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

(a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 

(i) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series; 

(ii) the principal of (and premium (if any) on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise
than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities; 

(iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or
rates prescribed therefor in such Securities; and 
 (iv) all sums paid or advanced by either of the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator hereunder and the reasonable and documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, its agents and counsel; 

and 

(b) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal and other
amounts of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.04. 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.03. Other Remedies. Subject to the terms of the relevant series of Securities established under
the supplemental indenture issued pursuant to Section 3.01, if an Event of Default occurs or if the Company breaches any covenant or warranty under this Indenture or the Securities, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to enforce
any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any
of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any

Holder of a Security in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.
All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 5.04. Waiver Of Past Defaults. The
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series by notice to the Trustee may waive any past default under this Indenture affecting such series, except an uncured default in the payment of principal of

Securities of a series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, in each case with respect to
such series and subject to the limitations specified herein. Subject to Article 6 herein relating to the Trustee’s duties, neither of the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator will be under any obligation to exercise any of its rights and
powers under the Indenture unless such Holder has offered an indemnity to its reasonable satisfaction against any loss, costs, expenses and liabilities it may incur. 

Section 5.06. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of Securities of any series will have any right to institute any
proceeding with respect to this Indenture or the Securities of the series or for any remedy thereunder, unless: 
 (a) such
Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office of a continuing Event of Default under the Securities of the series has occurred; 

(b) Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the relevant series have made
a written request to the Trustee to institute the proceedings in respect of the Event of Default or breach in its own name as Trustee under this Indenture; 

(c) the Holders of the Securities of the relevant series have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the cost and
other liabilities of instituting a proceeding and provided a written request to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; 

(d) the Trustee for 60 days thereafter has failed to institute any such proceeding; 

(e) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the
relevant series have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such written request; and 
 (f) the terms
of such series of Securities do not prohibit such remedy to be sought by the Trustee and/or the Holders, 
 it being
understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb

after the respective due dates expressed in the Security (including in connection with a Change of Control Offer, if such term is defined in the relevant supplemental indenture issued pursuant to Section 3.01), or to institute a suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 5.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(a) or

and Additional Amounts (if any) on, the Securities and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable and
documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

property (including, but not limited to, any bankruptcy, dissolution, insolvency, liquidation, winding-up or similar judicial proceeding) and shall be entitled and empowered to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in
order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding, and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian, receiver, liquidator, sequestrator or
other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the
Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the
same shall be secured by the lien as specified in Section 6.07 on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in
liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for
their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the
Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in its Statements of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the
use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 6.05. May Hold Securities.
The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar, any Calculation Agent or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.08 and 6.13, may
otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Calculation Agent or such other agent. 

Section 6.06. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other

or the Trustee all sums held by such Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities, and shall give to the Trustee notice of any default by the Company on the Securities in the making of any such payment.

 Section 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees:

 (a) to pay to each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator from time to time reasonable compensation for all
services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator upon its
request for all reasonable and duly documented expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 

(c) to indemnify each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, its agents and counsel for, and to hold them harmless
against, any duly documented loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses
of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder. 

The obligations of the Company under this Section shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the
satisfaction and discharges of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by each of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator as such (except funds
held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities), and the Securities are hereby subordinated to such senior claim. 

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or
(f) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under applicable bankruptcy law. 

Section 6.08. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest
within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. 

Section 6.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall
be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State or District of Columbia authority and having its Corporate Trust Office in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, New York. 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. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter
specified in this Article. 
 Section 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

(a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may
resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the
Trustee within 30 days after the giving 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 the Securities of such series. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the Company.

time: 
 (i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after
written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 

(ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written

 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of
acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed 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, (i) the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, may
remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.12, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

The Company may also remove the Trustee with or without cause if the Company so notifies the Trustee six months in advance and
if no Event of Default occurs during the six-month period. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become
incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a

successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or
more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or
the Holders of Securities of that series and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months, subject to
Section 5.12, may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series
and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 6.11. 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 request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of
the charges due it pursuant to Section 6.07, 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. 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. 
 (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 (i) 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 

  
 49 

Table of Contents

 
successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, 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 (iii) 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 and 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 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 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 all 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. 
 Section 6.12. 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 all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. 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 6.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a
creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of a series), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). A Trustee
who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent provided therein.

 Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Securities
Administrator may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Securities Administrator to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original
issue or upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06, 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 Securities Administrator hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Securities Administrator or the Securities Administrator’s certificate of
authentication such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Securities Administrator by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Securities Administrator by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority,
then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 

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

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Securities Administrator and to the
Company. The Securities Administrator may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Securities Administrator may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the
Company and shall promptly give notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities pursuant to Section 1.06. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers
and duties of its predecessor hereunder with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this
Section. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such
series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Securities Administrator’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), shall appoint (at the expense of the Company) in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by
the Company with respect to such series of Securities. 
 Section 6.15. Certain Rights of the Securities
Administrator. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits provided to the Trustee under this Article 6 (including but not limited to its right to be indemnified) are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Securities
Administrator in each of its capacities hereunder and to each of its Responsible Officers and other Persons duly employed by the Securities Administrator hereunder as if they were each expressly set forth herein for the benefit of the Securities

application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders of Securities of such series with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities of such series and is accompanied by a copy
of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Securities Administrator shall within five business days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either:

have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Securities Administrator shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders of Securities of such series with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such
tender; otherwise the Securities Administrator shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 

(c) Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company, the Securities Administrator and
the Trustee that neither the Company, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee, nor any agent of the Company, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the

 [Back of Security] 

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise
indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. ArcelorMittal, a société anonyme organized under Luxembourg law will
pay interest on the principal amount of the Securities at [    ]% per annum from [    ], until Maturity. The Company will pay interest and Additional Amounts (if any) pursuant to Section
[            ], semi-annually in arrears on                      and
                     of each year (each an Interest Payment Date) commencing on [    ], to the Holders of Securities
registered as such as of close of business on                      and
                     (each a Regular Record Date), immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

If an Interest Payment Date or the maturity date in respect of the Securities is a Legal Holiday, we will pay
interest or principal, as the case may be, on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday. Payments postponed to the next Business Day in this situation will be treated under this Indenture as if they were made on the original due date.
Postponement of this kind will not result in a default under the Securities or this Indenture, and no interest will accrue on the postponed amount from the original due date to the next day that is a Business Day. 

Interest on the Securities will accrue from the Closing Date or, if interest has already been paid, from the
date it was most recently paid to (but excluding) the relevant interest payment date (each such period, an “Interest Period”). Interest on the Securities will be calculated in accordance with Section 3.10 of the Indenture. 

Interest will cease to accrue on the Securities on the due date for their redemption, unless, upon such due
date, payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused or if default is otherwise made in respect of payment of principal, in which case interest will continue to accrue on the Securities at the rates set forth above, as the case may be, until
the earlier of (a) the day on which all sums due in respect of such Securities up to that day are received by the relevant Holder or (b) the day falling seven days after the Securities Administrator has notified the Holders of receipt of
all sums due in respect of the such Securities up to that seventh day, except to the extent that there is failure in the subsequent payment to the relevant Holders following such notification. 

(2) DEFAULTED INTEREST. Any interest on the Securities which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Company, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special
Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as
more fully provided in said Indenture. 

  
 A-3

 (3) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Securities
(except Defaulted Interest) and Additional Amounts (if any) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business in New York City on
                     or
                     (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 3.07
of the Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest. The Securities will be payable as to principal, interest and Additional Amounts (if any) at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of
New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest and Additional Amounts (if any) may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of
immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, interest and Additional Amounts (if any) on, all Securities the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such
payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

(4) PAYING AGENT AND SECURITY REGISTRAR. Initially, Citibank, N.A., the Securities Administrator under the Indenture,
will act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. The Company may appoint one or more Co-Registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Security Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or
any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 (5) INDENTURE. The Company issued the Securities under an
Indenture dated as of                     , between the Company, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities
include those stated in the Indenture and those expressly made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act as in effect on the date of the Indenture and, to the extent required by any amendment after such date, as so amended. The
Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the U.S. Trust Indenture Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture,
the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (6) REDEMPTION AT THE OPTION OF THE COMPANY.
Redemption at the option of the Company shall only be applicable to these Securities if such applicability and the terms of such redemption are specified pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture. 

(7) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments shall only be applicable to these Securities if
such applicability and the terms of such payments are specified pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture. 
 (8)
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder at its registered address. 

(9) OFFER TO PURCHASE UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL. A requirement for the Company to offer to purchase any Securities
following a change of control shall only be applicable if such applicability and the terms of such redemption are specified pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture.

[shall be] applicable to the Securities. 
 (11) COVENANT DEFEASANCE. Section 4.03 of the Indenture [shall be]
applicable to the Securities. 
 (12) SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE. The Indenture specifies the means by which it may
be discharged and cease to be of further effect with respect to the Securities. 
 (13) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER,
EXCHANGE. The Securities are in registered form without coupons. The transfer of Securities may be registered and Securities may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Security Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register
the transfer of any Security or portion of a Security selected for redemption. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities of such series to be redeemed or
selected for redemption or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 (14)
PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
 (15)
AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of
each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be
affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive
compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 

As set forth in the Indenture, the Indenture may be amended or modified without the consent of any Holder of Securities in
order, among other things: (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for the issuance of additional Securities in accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture; (iii) to provide for the
assumption by a successor company of the Company’s obligations under the Securities and the Indenture in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (iv) to comply with any
requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; or (v) to correct or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the
Indenture, so long as that correction or added provision will not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities in any material respect. 

  
 A-5 

Table of Contents

 As set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of each Holder of an
Outstanding Security affected, no amendment may, among other things: (i) modify the Stated Maturity of the Securities or the dates on which interest is payable in respect of the Securities; (ii) reduce the principal amount of, or interest
on, the Securities; (iii) change the currency of payment of the Securities; (iv) impair the right of the Holders of Securities to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the date due; (v) reduce the percentage in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any modification of or waiver of compliance with any provision of the Indenture or defaults under the Indenture and their consequences; and (vi) modify
the provisions of the Indenture regarding the quorum required at any meeting of Holders. 
 (16) DEFAULTS AND
REMEDIES. Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: 
 (1) default in any payment
of principal or any premium on any Security of a series when due (at Maturity, including upon redemption, or otherwise), which continues for 15 days; 

(2) default in the payment of interest (if any) and Additional Amounts (if any) on any Security of a series
when due, which continues for 30 days; 
 (3) the Company’s failure to comply with any other obligation
contained in the Indenture (other than a covenant default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in Section 5.01 of the Indenture specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there
has been given to the Company by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator written notice, as provided in accordance with Section 1.05 of the Indenture, specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied; 

(4) the Company’s failure, or the failure of any Material Subsidiary, (a) to pay the principal of any
indebtedness for borrowed money, including obligations evidenced by any mortgage, indenture, bond, debenture, note, guarantee or other similar instruments on the scheduled or original date due (following the giving of such notice, if any, as
required under the document governing such indebtedness and as extended by any applicable cure period) or (b) to observe or perform any agreement or condition relating to such indebtedness such that such indebtedness has come due prior to its
stated maturity and such acceleration has not been cured, unless (in the case of clauses (a) and (b)) (i) the aggregate amount of such indebtedness is less than €100,000,000 or (ii) the question of whether such indebtedness is
due has been disputed in good faith by appropriate proceedings and such dispute has not been finally adjudicated against the Company or the Material Subsidiary, as the case may be; 

(5) if the Company is (or is deemed by law or a court to be) insolvent or bankrupt or presents a request for
controlled management (gestion contrôlée) or is granted a moratorium on payments or is unable to pay its debts, stops, suspends or 

  
 A-6 

Table of Contents

 
threatens to stop or suspend payment of all or a material part of (or of a particular type of) its debts within the meaning of any applicable law, proposes or makes any agreement for the
deferral, rescheduling or other readjustment of all of (or all of a particular type of) its debts (or of any part which it will or might otherwise be unable to pay when due), proposes or makes a general assignment or any arrangement or composition
with or for the benefit of the relevant creditors in respect of any of such debts or a moratorium is agreed or declared in respect of or affecting all or any part of (or of a particular type of) the debts of the Company or any event occurs which
under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction has an analogous effect to any of the foregoing events; 
 (6) if
any Material Subsidiary is (or is deemed by law or a court to be) insolvent or bankrupt or presents a request for controlled management (gestion contrôlée) or is granted a moratorium on payments or is unable to pay its debts, stops,
suspends or threatens to stop or suspend payment of all or a material part of (or of a particular type of) its debts within the meaning of any applicable law, proposes or makes any agreement for the deferral, rescheduling or other readjustment of
all of (or all of a particular type of) its debts (or of any part which it will or might otherwise be unable to pay when due), proposes or makes a general assignment or any arrangement or composition with or for the benefit of the relevant creditors
in respect of any of such debts or a moratorium is agreed or declared in respect of or affecting all or any part of (or of a particular type of) the debts of any such Material Subsidiary or any event occurs which under the laws of any relevant
jurisdiction has an analogous effect to any of the foregoing events (in each case, a “Material Subsidiary Insolvency Event”), provided that no Event of Default under this paragraph (ii) will occur in relation to any such Material
Subsidiary Insolvency Event unless (x) the credit rating assigned by any Rating Agency to the long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company within the period of 60 days immediately following such Material Subsidiary
Insolvency Event is less than the credit rating assigned by such agency to the long-term, unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company immediately prior to or on the effective date of such Material Subsidiary Insolvency Event and
(y) a Rating Agency making a Rating Downgrade publicly announces or confirms that such Rating Downgrade was the result of any event or circumstance comprised in or arising as a result of, or in respect of, such Material Subsidiary Insolvency
Event; or 
 (7) or any other Event of Default expressly provided with respect to Securities of that series.

 Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the affected series may declare the principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and
to the Trustee if given by Holders), in accordance with Section 1.05 of the Indenture. Upon any such declaration, the Securities of such series shall become due and payable immediately. 

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to outstanding Securities of any series has been made and
before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in 

  
 A-7 

Table of Contents

 
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

(1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 

(a) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series, 

(b) the principal of (and premium (if any) on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise
than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, 

(c) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Securities, and 
 (d) all sums paid or advanced by either of the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator hereunder and the reasonable and documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, its agents and counsel; 

and 

(2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the
principal and other amounts of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.04 of the Indenture. 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series by notice to the Trustee
may waive any past default under the Indenture affecting such series, except an uncured default in the payment of principal of or interest on such series of Securities or an uncured default relating to a covenant or provision of the Indenture that
cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each affected Holder. 
 Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of a series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, in
each case with respect to such series and subject to the limitations specified herein. Subject to Article 6 of the Indenture relating to the Trustee’s duties, neither of the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator will be under any obligation
to exercise any of its rights and powers under the Indenture unless such Holder has offered an indemnity to its reasonable satisfaction against any loss, costs, expenses and liabilities it may incur. 

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

  
 A-8 

Table of Contents

 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the
Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office of a continuing Event of Default under the Securities of the series has occurred; 

(2) Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the relevant
series have made a written request to the Trustee to institute the proceedings in respect of the Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; 

(3) the Holders of the Securities of the relevant series have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity
against the cost and other liabilities of instituting a proceeding and provided a written request to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; 

(4) the Trustee for 60 days thereafter has failed to institute any such proceeding; 

(5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of the relevant series have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such written request; and 

(6) the terms of such series of Securities do not prohibit such remedy to be sought by the Trustee and/or the
Holders, 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner
whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under
the Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders 

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of principal
of, and interest (if any) and Additional Amounts (if any) on the Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security (including in connection with a Change of Control Offer, if such term is defined in the relevant supplemental
indenture issued pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture), or to institute a suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

(17) TRUSTEE AND SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. Each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator,
in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or Securities Administrator, as
applicable. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest as defined under the Trust Indenture Act, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, or resign. 

(18) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of
the Company, as such, will have any liability for any 

  
 A-9 

Table of Contents

 
obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security
waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities. 

(19) AUTHENTICATION. This Security will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Securities
Administrator or an authenticating agent. 
 (20) ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a
Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

 (21) CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities, and each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to
the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

(22) GOVERNING LAW. THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 86 TO 94-8 OF THE LUXEMBOURG LAW OF AUGUST 10, 1915 ON COMMERCIAL COMPANIES, AS AMENDED, SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE SECURITIES.
