 Section 1.04 FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO TRUSTEE. 

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary
that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more
other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any certificate of an officer of the Company or other obligor on the Securities may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel,
unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or
opinion may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company or other obligor on the Securities stating that the information with respect to such
factual matters is in the possession of the Company or other obligor on the Securities, unless such officer or counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous. Opinions of Counsel required to be delivered to the Trustee may have qualifications customary for opinions of the type required and counsel delivering such Opinions of Counsel may rely on certificates of the Company or
government or other officials customary for opinions of the type required, including certificates certifying as to matters of fact, including that various financial covenants have been complied with. 

Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company or other obligor on the Securities may be based, insofar as it relates to
accounting matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an accountant or firm of accountants in the employ of the Company, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or
opinion or representations with respect to the accounting matters upon which his certificate or opinion may be based are erroneous. Any certificate or opinion of any independent firm of public accountants filed with the Trustee shall contain a
statement that such firm is independent with respect to the Company. 
 Where any Person is required to make, give or execute
two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Section 1.05 ACTS OF HOLDERS. 
 (a) Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of the Outstanding Securities of all series or one or more series, as the case may be, may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or

  
 12 

 
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are
herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.05. 
 (b) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (c)
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act by the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Company or any other obligor of the Securities in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon
such Security. 
 (d) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the
affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution
thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (e) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution,
fix in advance a record date for the determination of such Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding Trust
Indenture Act Section 316(c), any such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection
therewith and no later than the date such first solicitation is completed. 
 If such a record date is fixed, such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for purposes of
determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Securities then Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for this purpose the
Securities then Outstanding shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall
become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after such record date.

 Section 1.06 NOTICES, ETC., TO THE TRUSTEE, THE
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
by any Holder or by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities shall be sufficient for every purpose (except as provided in Section 5.01(c), (d) or (e), in which case, the notice shall be delivered by certified
mail) hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by recognized overnight courier, to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Services, or at any other address previously
furnished in writing to the Holders or the Company, or any other obligor on the Securities by the Trustee and shall be deemed given upon actual receipt by the Trustee; or 

(b) the Company by the Trustee or any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose (except as provided in
Section 5.01(c), (d) or (e), in which case, the notice shall be delivered by certified mail) hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by recognized overnight courier, to the Company
addressed to Republic Services, Inc., 18500 N. Allied Way, Phoenix, Arizona 85054, Attention: Chief Financial Officer, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, 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 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 e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The
Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such 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, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee
acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties. 
 Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, as long as the Securities are in the form of a Global Security, notice to the Holders may be made electronically in accordance with procedures of the Depositary. 

  
 14 

 Section 1.07 NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by recognized overnight courier, to each Holder affected by such event, at its 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. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice when mailed to a Holder in the aforesaid manner shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder whether or not actually received by such Holder. 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 Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event as required by any provision of this Indenture, then any
method of giving such notice as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and reasonably calculated to reach its destination shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. 
 Section 1.08 CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. 
 If any provision hereof
limits, qualifies or conflicts with any provision of the Trust Indenture Act or another provision which is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, the provision or requirement of the
Trust Indenture Act shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified
or to be excluded, as the case may be. 
 Section 1.09 EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS. 

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

affected or impaired thereby.

Security) payment of interest or principal or premium, if any, need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the
Maturity or Stated Maturity and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Maturity or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to the next succeeding Business Day.

 Section 1.15 INDEPENDENCE OF COVENANTS. 
 All covenants and agreements in this Indenture shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by
an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. 
 Section 1.16 SCHEDULES AND EXHIBITS. 
 All schedules and exhibits attached
hereto are by this reference made a part hereof with the same effect as if herein set forth in full. 
 Section 1.17 COUNTERPARTS.

 This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original; but all such

the circumstances.

series may be reopened, without the consent of the Holders, for issuances of additional Securities of such series or to establish additional terms of such series of Securities (which additional terms shall only be applicable to unissued or

 20 

 If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established by action taken pursuant
to one or more Board Resolutions, a copy of an appropriate record of such action(s) shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’
Certificate setting forth the terms of the Securities of such series. 
 Section 3.02 DENOMINATIONS. 

The Securities shall be issuable only in fully registered form without coupons and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless provided otherwise in a supplemental indenture with respect to any series of Securities. 

Section 3.03 EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING. 
 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one of its Chairman of the Board, its President, its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer or one of its Vice Presidents. The
signatures of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile
signature of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold
such office 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 executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order
shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall
receive, and, subject to Section 6.01, shall be fully protected in relying upon: 
 (a) A copy of the
resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors in or pursuant to which the terms and form of the Securities were established, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company to have been duly adopted by the Board of
Directors and to be in full force and effect as of the date of such certificate, and if the terms and form of such Securities were established by an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to authorization of the Board of Directors, such Officers’
Certificate; 
 (b) an executed supplemental indenture, if any; 

(c) an Officers’ Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 1.03; and 

  
 21 

 (d) an Opinion of Counsel which shall state; 

(1) that the form of such Securities has been established by a supplemental indenture or by or pursuant to a resolution of
the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 2.01 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) that the terms of such Securities have been established in accordance with Section 3.01 and in conformity with the other provisions of this Indenture; and 

(3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and
subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 
 The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this Section if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or
if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing Holders. 
 Unless otherwise provided for in the form of Security, 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 duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, 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 is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of
Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01, in case the Company, pursuant to Article VIII, shall, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions, be consolidated, amalgamated, combined or
merged with or into any other Person or shall sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation,
amalgamation, or combination or surviving such merger, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or the successor Person which shall have participated in the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid,
shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article VIII, any of the Securities authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, amalgamation, combination, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance,
transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but
otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for 

  
 22 

 
such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Request of the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such request for the purpose
of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section 3.03 in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such
successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time Outstanding for Securities authenticated and delivered in such new name. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities on behalf of the Trustee. Unless
limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating
agent has the same rights as any Security Registrar or Paying Agent to deal with the Company and its Affiliates. 
 Section 3.04 TEMPORARY
SECURITIES. 
 (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued
and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officer or officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

(b) If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay, except to
comply with applicable law. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for
such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor
a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities. 

Section 3.05 REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. 
 The Company shall cause the Trustee to keep, so long as it is the Security Registrar, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or such other office as the Trustee may designate, a register for each
series of Securities (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 10.02 being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as the Security Registrar may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee shall initially be the “Security Registrar” for the purpose of
registering Securities and transfers of Securities as 

  
 23 

 
herein provided. The Company may change the Security Registrar or appoint one or more co-Security Registrars without prior notice; provided that the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee if
the Company changes the Security Registrar or appoints a co-Security Registrar. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Security at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.02, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee 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 denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount. 

Furthermore, any Holder of the Global Security shall, by acceptance of such Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interests
in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in a Security shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

 At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denomination or
denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, Securities of the same series which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Securities issued
upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same Indebtedness, 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, repurchase or
redemption, shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer, exchange
or redemption of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.05 or 3.07 not involving any transfer, except for any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. 

The Company shall not be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the
opening of business 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Securities selected for redemption under Section 11.04 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (b) to register the transfer of
or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Securities being redeemed in part. 

  
 24 

 Any Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange
for, or in lieu of, any Global Security, whether pursuant to this Section 3.05, Sections 3.04, 3.06, 3.07, 9.06 or 11.08 or otherwise, shall also be a Global Security and bear the legend specified
in Exhibit A hereto. 
 Section 3.06 BOOK ENTRY PROVISIONS FOR GLOBAL SECURITIES. 

The following provisions shall govern Global Securities except as set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto: 

(a) Each Global Security initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or
the nominee of such Depositary, (ii) be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary or with the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Exhibit A hereto. 

Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this
Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under such Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or shall impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security.

 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in
part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary
(A) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act, and in either case the Company fails to
appoint a successor Depositary, (ii) the Company, at its option, executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order stating that it elects to cause the issuance of the Securities in certificated form and that all Global Securities shall be
exchanged in whole for Securities that are not Global Securities (in which case, such exchange shall be effected by the Trustee) or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default. 

(c) If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on
behalf of the Depositary or its nominee to the Trustee, as Security Registrar, for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III. If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if another
Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article III or (ii) the
principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or 

  
 25 

 
canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the
records of the Trustee, as Security Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such
surrender or adjustment of a Global Security, the Trustee shall, subject to this Section 3.06(c) and as otherwise provided in this Article III, authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security
(or any portion thereof) to or upon the order of, and registered in such names as may be directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified
in the preceding Subsection (b), the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order,
direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article III if such order, direction or request is given or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. 

(d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a
Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article III or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person
other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. 
 (e) The Depositary or its nominee, as
registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture and the Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable
Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent
Members. 
 The Trustee shall have no 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 Agent Members 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. 
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Registrar will
have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of Depositary records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any Depositary records relating
to such beneficial ownership interests, or for transfers of beneficial interests in the Securities or any transactions between the Depositary and beneficial owners.

 Section 3.07 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES. 

If (a) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, or (b) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee, such security or indemnity, in each case, as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon a Company Request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of
any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a replacement Security of like tenor and principal amount, 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 replacement Security, pay such
Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any replacement Securities under this Section 3.07, the Company may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee, its agents and
its counsel) connected therewith. 
 Every replacement Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.07 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 shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits
of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this
Section 3.07 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 3.08 PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED. 
 Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or
duly provided for, on the Stated Maturity of such interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Security (or any Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest payment.

  
 27 

 Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.01, any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on the Stated Maturity of such interest, and interest on such defaulted interest at the then applicable interest
rate borne by the Securities, to the extent lawful (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date; and
such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Subsection (a) or (b) below: 
 (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or any relevant Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a
Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date (not
less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Payment Date”), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in
respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the Special Payment Date, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted
Interest as in this Subsection (a) provided. Thereupon, the Trustee 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
Special Payment Date and shall fix the Special Record Date not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of such Special Record Date. In the
name and at the expense of the Company, the Trustee shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at its address as it appears in
the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Payment Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest
shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Subsection (b). 

(b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by this Indenture not inconsistent with the requirements of such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the
Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Subsection (b), such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security
shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 3.09 CUSIP
NUMBERS. 
 The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and the
Company, or the Trustee on behalf of the Company, shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice shall 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 redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities; and provided further, however, that failure
to use CUSIP numbers in any notice of redemption or exchange shall not affect the validity or sufficiency of such notice. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 

  
 28 

 Section 3.10 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. 

Prior to and at the time of due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.08) interest on, such
Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 3.11 CANCELLATION. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, purchase, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall be delivered to the Trustee and, if not already canceled, shall be promptly canceled by it. The
Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee 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 canceled
by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 3.11, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee
shall, upon written request of the Company, be disposed in accordance with the Trustee’s standard procedures, unless by a Company Order received by the Trustee prior to such disposition, the Company shall direct that the canceled Securities be
returned to it. The Trustee shall provide the Company a list of all Securities that have been canceled from time to time as requested by the Company. 
 Section 3.12 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST. 
 Except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

ARTICLE IV 

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 4.01 APPLICABILITY OF ARTICLE; COMPANY’S OPTION TO EFFECT DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE. 
 If pursuant to Section 3.01 provision is made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 4.02 or (b) covenant defeasance
of the Securities of or within a series under Section 4.03, then the provisions of such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of this Article IV (with such modifications thereto as may be
specified pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to any Securities), shall be applicable to such Securities, and the Company may 

  
 29 

 
at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such Securities, elect to have Section 4.02 (if applicable) or Section 4.03 (if applicable) be applied to
such Outstanding Securities (the “Defeased Securities”) upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article IV. 
 Section 4.02 DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise
of the option applicable to this Section 4.02 with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company and any other obligor upon the applicable series of Securities, if any, shall be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to the Defeased Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company and any
other obligor under this Indenture shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Defeased Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of
Section 4.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such series of Securities and this Indenture insofar as such series of Securities are
concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company and upon Company Request, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:
(a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 4.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on, such series of Securities, when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Defeased Securities under Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.05, 3.07, 10.02 and 10.03,
(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, including, without limitation, the Trustee’s rights under Section 6.07, and (d) this Article IV. Subject to compliance with this
Article IV, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 4.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 4.03 with respect to a series of Securities. 

Section 4.03 COVENANT DEFEASANCE. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise of the option applicable to this Section 4.03 with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from its obligations under
any covenant or provision contained or referred to in Sections 10.05, 10.06 and 10.07 and any other covenant or provision if specified pursuant to Section 3.01, with respect to the Defeased Securities, on and after
the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and the Defeased Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be 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 shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder, and the Events of Default
under Section 5.01(c), (d) and (e) and any Event of Default specified to be covered by this Section 4.03 for a series in accordance with Section 3.01 shall cease to be in full force and
effect with respect to the applicable series of Securities. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Defeased Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such Section, whether 

  
 30 

 
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document
and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.01(c), (d) and (e) but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities
shall be unaffected thereby. 
 Section 4.04 CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE. 

The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 to the Defeased
Securities of or within a series: 
 (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities, (a) cash in United States dollars
in an amount, (b) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms and with no further reinvestment will provide, not later than one day before the due
date of payment, money in an amount, or (c) a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to
the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Defeased Securities, on the Stated Maturity of such principal or interest. For this purpose,
“U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (i) direct obligations of the United States of America for the timely payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (ii) obligations of a Person controlled
or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the timely payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are
not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act), as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation
or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to
make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government
Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt; 
 (2) In the case of an election under
Section 4.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Independent Counsel in the United States stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling or (B) since the date hereof, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Independent Counsel in the United States shall confirm that, the Holders
and beneficial owners of the Outstanding Securities will 

  
 31 

 
not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred; 
 (3) In the case of an election under
Section 4.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Independent Counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders and beneficial owners of the Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not
occurred; 
 (4) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit
or insofar as Section 5.01(f) is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

 (5) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound; 

(6) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an
investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder; 

(7) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Independent Counsel in the United States to the effect
that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 

(8) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by
the Company with the intent of preferring the holders of the applicable series of Securities over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others; 

(9) No event or condition shall exist that would prevent the Company from making payments of the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the applicable series of Securities on the date of such deposit or at any time ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit; and 
 (10) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Independent Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the
defeasance under Section 4.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 4.03 (as the case may be) have been complied with. 

  
 32 

 Opinions of Independent Counsel required to be delivered under this Section 4.04
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and may have qualifications customary for opinions of the type required and counsel delivering such opinions may rely on certificates of the Company or government or other
officials customary for opinions of the type required, which certificates shall be limited as to matters of fact, including that various financial covenants have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IV, such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in
compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions and limitations which may be imposed by the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.01. 
 Section 4.05 DEPOSITED MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all United States dollars and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant
to Section 4.04 in respect of the Defeased Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such series of Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent (excluding the Company or any of its Affiliates acting as Paying Agent), as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such series of Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium,
if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Unless
otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited
pursuant to Section 4.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is imposed, assessed or for the account of the Holders of the Defeased Securities. 

Anything in this Article IV to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon Company Request any United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 4.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 Section 4.06 REINSTATEMENT. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to
apply any United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03, 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 

  
 33 

 
this Indenture and the applicable series of Securities shall be revived and reinstated, with present and prospective effect, as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.02
or 4.03, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such United States dollars or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.02 or 4.03, as the case may be;
provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment to the Trustee or Paying Agent of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall
promptly pay any such amount to the Holders of the Securities of such series and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such series of Securities to receive such payment from the United States dollars and U.S. Government
Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent pursuant to Section 4.02 or 4.03.

 Section 5.02
ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified
in Section 5.01(f)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, shall occur and be continuing, unless the principal and interest with respect to all of the Securities of such series shall have already become due and
payable, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series (with each affected series voting as a separate class) then Outstanding may, and the Trustee at the

  
 35 

 
request of such Holders shall, declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all Securities of that series affected thereby to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders of the Securities) and upon any such declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and interest shall become due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified
in Subsection (f) of Section 5.01 occurs and is continuing, unless the principal and interest with respect to the Securities shall have already become due and payable, then the Securities of all series shall ipso facto become
and be due and payable immediately in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Securities, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date the Securities become due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Holder. Thereupon, the Trustee may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Holders of the Securities by appropriate judicial proceedings. 

Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.01, in the event of a declaration of acceleration because of an Event of
Default set forth in Subsection (e) of Section 5.01 has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default triggering such Event of Default
pursuant to Subsection (e) of Section 5.01 shall be remedied or cured by the Company or the relevant Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with
respect thereto. 
 At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to any of the Securities of any series, but
before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any affected series
(with each affected series voting as a separate class), 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: 

(1) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, fees and expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, 
 (2) all overdue interest on all Outstanding
Securities of such series, 
 (3) the principal of and premium, if any, on any Outstanding Securities of such
series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by such series of Securities, and 
 (4) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the applicable series of Securities; 

(b) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and 

  
 36 

 (c) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the applicable series of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.03 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

 The Company covenants that if 
 (a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security of any series when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 

(b) default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Security of any series at the Stated
Maturity thereof or otherwise, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on the Securities of such series for principal and premium, if
any, and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities of such
series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities
of such series and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, wherever situated. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders under this Indenture by such appropriate private or judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy, subject however to Section 5.12. No recovery of any such judgment upon any property of the Company shall affect or impair any rights,
powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders.

 Section 5.04 TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. 

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of any series or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of such series of
Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount
of principal, and premium, if any, and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities of any series and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim
for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or 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 the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, fees and
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07. 
 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 of any series or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 For purposes of this Section 5.04, the Trustee is hereby designated as the attorney-in-fact for the Holders. 
 Section 5.05 TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the
Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities of such series or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, fees and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Securities of such series in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

 Section 5.06 APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED. 

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V or otherwise on behalf of the Holders or the Trustee pursuant to
this Article V or through any proceeding or any arrangement or restructuring in anticipation or in lieu of any proceeding contemplated by this Article V shall be applied, subject to applicable law, in the following order, at the date
or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the several Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon
surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under
Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for

ratably to the Persons entitled thereto, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest; and 

THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto, including the Company, provided that all sums due
and owing to the Holders and the Trustee have been paid in full as required by this Indenture. 
 Section 5.07 LIMITATION ON SUITS.

 No Holder of any series of Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect
to this Indenture or any series of Securities, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 

(b) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have
made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as trustee hereunder; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, fees and expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer (and, if requested, provision) of
indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

  
 39 

 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to
the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the affected series; 
 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 or any Security of any series 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 this Indenture or any Security of any series, except in the manner provided
in this Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

 Section 5.08 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right based on the terms stated herein,
which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.08) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption or repurchase, on the Redemption Date or the repurchase date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 5.09 RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined
adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, any other obligor on the Securities, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to
their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. 
 No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or
remedy. 
 Section 5.11 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any
such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the
Holders, as the case may be. 

  
 40 

 Section 5.12 CONTROL BY HOLDERS. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of any series of Outstanding Securities shall 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 under this Article V with respect to such series, provided that:

 (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture (including, without
limitation, Section 5.07), expose the Trustee to personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining therein; and 
 (b) subject to the provisions of Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 

Section 5.13 WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. 
 Prior to the acceleration of the maturity of any series of the Securities, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series may on behalf
of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of any such series waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences, except a Default or Event of Default: 

(a) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security (which may only be waived with the
consent of each Holder of Securities of such series affected); or 
 (b) in respect of a covenant or a provision
hereof which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Security of such series Outstanding affected by such modification or amendment. 

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured,
for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.14 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement
of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and

  
 41 

 
that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant, but the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security on or after the
respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
 Section 5.15
WAIVER OF STAY, EXTENSION OR USURY LAWS. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will
not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would prohibit or
forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities contemplated herein or in the Securities or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit
the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 5.16 REMEDIES SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW. 

All rights, remedies and powers provided by this Article V may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does
not violate any applicable provision of law in the premises, and all the provisions of this Indenture are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling in the premises and to be limited to the extent
necessary so that they will not render this Indenture invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

Outstanding Securities of any series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power confirmed upon the Trustee under this Indenture; 

(d) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any

liability is not reasonably assured to it; 
 (e) whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision
of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to Subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 6.01; and

transmit by mail to all Holders and any other Persons entitled to receive reports pursuant to Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such Default hereunder actually
known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice if and so long as a trust committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders.

 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof and Trust Indenture Act Sections 315(a) through 315(d): 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon receipt by it of any

of 

  
 44 

 
not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series then Outstanding; provided that, if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require indemnity
satisfactory to it against such expenses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the reasonable expenses of every such investigation so requested by the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities Outstanding of
an affected series shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee, shall be repaid by the Company upon demand; provided, further, the Trustee in its discretion may make such further inquiry or investigation into
such facts or matters as it may deem fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the

 (h) the
Trustee shall not be required to take notice, and shall not be deemed to have notice, of any Default or Event of Default hereunder, except Events of Default described in Subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.01

least 10% of the aggregate principal amount of any Securities of any series then outstanding and affected and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture. In the absence of delivery of notice satisfying those requirements, the Trustee
may assume conclusively that there is no Default or Event of Default, except as noted above; 
 (i) whenever in
the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may,
in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
 (j) the rights,
privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent,
custodian and other Person employed by the Trustee to act hereunder; 
 (k) in no event shall the Trustee be
responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or
damage and regardless of the form of action; and

forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 

Section 6.04 TRUSTEE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS, DISPOSITIONS OF SECURITIES OR APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS THEREOF. 

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 any Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 to be supplied to the Company will be true
and accurate subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 6.05 TRUSTEE AND AGENTS MAY HOLD SECURITIES; COLLECTIONS; ETC. 

The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become
the owner or pledgee of Securities, with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent and, subject to Trust Indenture Act Sections 310 and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company and
receive, collect, hold and retain collections from the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 6.06 MONEY HELD IN TRUST. 
 All moneys received by the Trustee
shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law. Except for funds or
securities deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Article IV, the Trustee shall be required to invest all moneys received by the Trustee, until used or applied as herein provided, in Temporary Cash Investments in accordance with the
written directions of the Company. 
 In the event of a loss on the sale of such investments (after giving effect to any
interest or other income thereon except to the extent theretofore paid to the Company), the Trustee shall have no responsibility in respect of such loss except that the Trustee shall notify the Company of the amount of such loss and the Company
shall promptly pay such amount to the Trustee to be credited as part of the moneys originally invested. 

  
 46 

 Section 6.07 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF TRUSTEE AND ITS PRIOR CLAIM. 

The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, such compensation as agreed to in writing by the Company and
the Trustee and reasonable compensation for all other 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), and the Company covenants and
agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee upon its request for all reasonable fees, expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Indenture and as agreed upon in the fee agreement between the Trustee and the Company (including the reasonable compensation and the fees, expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and other persons not regularly in its employ);
except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Company also covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trustee and its directors, officers, agents and employees and each predecessor
Trustee (the “Indemnitees”) for, and to hold them harmless against, any claim, loss, liability, damage, tax, assessment or other governmental charge (other than taxes applicable to the Trustee’s compensation hereunder) or
expense incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the trusts hereunder and its duties hereunder, including enforcement of this
Section 6.07 and also including any liability which the Indemnitees may incur as a result of failure to withhold, pay or report any tax, assessment, fine, penalty, damages or other governmental charge, and the costs, fees and expenses of
defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.07 to compensate and indemnify
the Indemnitees and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for reasonable fees, expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute an additional obligation hereunder and shall survive the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee. 
 The
Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities as to all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount owing it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.07, except with respect to funds held in trust for the
benefit of the Holders of particular Securities. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an
Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable
Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 
 Section 6.08 CONFLICTING INTERESTS. 

The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

  
 47 

 Section 6.09 TRUSTEE ELIGIBILITY. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as trustee under Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a)
and which shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, to the extent there is an institution eligible and willing to serve. If the Trustee does not have a Corporate Trust Office in The City of New York, the Trustee may appoint
an agent in The City of New York reasonably acceptable to the Company to conduct any activities which the Trustee may be required under this Indenture to conduct in The City of New York. If such Trustee publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of Federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09, 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 6.09, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI. 
 Section 6.10
RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE. 
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee
and no appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee under Section 6.11. 

(b) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice thereof
to the Company no later than 30 Business Days prior to the proposed date of resignation. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of
Directors of the Company, a copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and a copy to the successor trustee. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the
giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, at the expense of the Company, or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint and prescribe a successor trustee. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed with respect to any particular series of Securities at any time for any cause or for no
cause by an Act of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. Upon receiving such Act of the Holders, the Company shall promptly
appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of Directors of the Company, a copy of which shall be delivered to the removed Trustee and a copy to the successor trustee. If an instrument of acceptance by a
successor trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the receipt of such Act of the Holders, the removed Trustee, at the expense of the Company, or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least
six months, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint and
prescribe a successor trustee. 

  
 48 

 (d) If at any time: 

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) 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, 

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign 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 
 (3) 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 case,
(i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, the Holder of any Security 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 and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and
prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. 
 (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, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of
Section 6.11. If, within 60 days after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, the Company has not appointed a successor Trustee with respect to Securities of a series, a successor trustee shall be
appointed by the Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company or
the Holders of the Securities and accepted appointment in the manner provided herein, the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, or the Holder of any Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may,
subject to Section 5.14, 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 Securities of a series. 

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor
trustee by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor trustee and the
address of its Corporate Trust Office or agent hereunder. 

  
 49 

 Section 6.11 ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR. 

Every successor trustee appointed hereunder 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 as if originally named as Trustee hereunder; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or the successor trustee, upon payment of its charges pursuant to Section 6.07 then unpaid,
such retiring Trustee shall pay over to the successor trustee all moneys, Temporary Cash Investments and other property relating thereto at the time held by it hereunder and shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
trustee all such rights, powers, trusts and duties. 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 and
powers. 
 No successor trustee with respect to the Securities shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 6.11 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible to act as trustee under the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and this Article VI and shall have a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and have a Corporate Trust Office or an agent selected in accordance with Section 6.09. 
 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to
transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates,
(2) 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 (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to
provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustee co-trustees of the same trust and that such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by an 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. 

  
 50 

 Upon acceptance of appointment by any successor trustee as provided in this
Section 6.11, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holders of the Securities, by mailing such notice to such Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Security Register. If the acceptance of appointment is
substantially contemporaneous with the appointment, then the notice called for by the preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section 6.10. If the Company fails to give such notice within 10 days after acceptance
of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Company. 
 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 (including the trust created by this Indenture) shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible under Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a) and this Article VI and
shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and have a Corporate Trust Office or an agent selected in accordance with Section 6.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any
of the parties hereto. 
 In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this
Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and, in case at
that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such
certificate shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee
or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 6.13 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY. 
 If and
when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or other obligor under the Securities), 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 Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein, as qualified by Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b).

 Section 6.14 APPOINTMENT OF AUTHENTICATING AGENT. 

At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Trustee 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 Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be
entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such
reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Company and, except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01, shall at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the
United States of America or of any State or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal
or State authorities. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.14, 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. In case at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.14, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.14. 

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall
continue to be an Authenticating agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.14, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

 An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the
Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon
receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case of any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.14, the Trustee for such series may
appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth
in Section 1.07. Any successor 

  
 52 

 
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 herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.14. 
 The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section 6.14.

 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section 6.14, the Securities of
such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. Each co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be

without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee; 

  
 53 

 (2) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee hereunder;

deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this
Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be
provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection or rights (including the rights to
compensation, reimbursement and indemnification hereunder) to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee; and 
 (5) any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under
or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name for the purposes of enforcing any rights or taking any other action on behalf of the Holders of any Securities issued hereunder.

execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture. 

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed

 Section 10.02 MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY. 

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Company also will
maintain in The City of New York an office or agency where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer, redemption or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be
served. The office of the Trustee located at 45 Broadway, New York, New York 10006, will be such office or agency of the Company, unless the Company shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or more of such purposes. The
Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location and any change in the location of any such offices or agencies. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required offices or agencies or shall fail to furnish
the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or
outside of The City of New York) where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes, and may from time to time rescind such designation. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such office or agency. 
 The Trustee shall initially act as
Paying Agent for the Securities. 
 Section 10.03 MONEY FOR SECURITY PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST. 

If the Company or any of its Affiliates shall at any time act as Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to
such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 If the Company or any of its Affiliates is not acting as Paying Agent, the Company will, on or before 10:00 a.m. New York City time of each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
any of the Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in same day funds sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium
or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any failure so to act. 
 If the Company is not acting as Paying Agent, the Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree
with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.03, that such Paying Agent will: 

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

  
 63 

 (b) give the Trustee prompt notice of any Default by the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities; 
 (c) at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; and 

(d) acknowledge, accept and agree to comply in all aspects with the provisions of this Indenture relating to the duties,
rights and liabilities of such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as
those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

Except as otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall promptly be paid to
the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability
of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such
repayment, shall at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the NEW YORK TIMES and THE WALL STREET JOURNAL (national edition), and mail to each such Holder, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification, publication and mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will promptly be repaid to the Company. 

Section 10.04 CORPORATE EXISTENCE. 
 Subject to Article VIII, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence and related rights and franchises
(charter and statutory) of the Company and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise or the corporate existence of any such Restricted Subsidiary or any trademark,
trade name or service mark of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer necessary or desirable in the conduct or the business of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the ability of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder. 

  
 64 

 Section 10.05 RESTRICTIONS ON LIENS. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to, Incur any Lien on any shares of
stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether such shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or Principal Property is owned at the date
of the Indenture or thereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively providing that all the Securities will be directly secured equally and ratably with such Lien. 

(b) The foregoing restrictions will not apply to: 

(1) the Incurrence of any Lien on any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal
Property acquired after the date of the Indenture (including acquisitions by way of merger or consolidation) by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary contemporaneously with such acquisition, or within 120 days thereafter, to secure or provide for
the payment or financing of any part of the purchase price thereof, or the assumption of any Lien upon any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property acquired after the date of the Indenture existing
at the time of such acquisition, or the acquisition of any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property subject to any Lien without the assumption thereof, provided that every such Lien referred to in
this Clause (1) shall attach only to the shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property so acquired and fixed improvements thereon; 

(2) any Lien on any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property existing
at the date of the Indenture or, with respect to any series of Securities, the date of the supplemental indenture which sets forth the terms of any such series of Securities or the Board Resolution under which any such series of Securities is
created; 
 (3) any Lien on any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any
Principal Property in favor of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (4) any Lien on Principal Property
being constructed or improved securing loans to finance such construction or improvements; 
 (5) any Lien on
shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property Incurred in connection with the issuance of tax exempt government obligations; or 

(6) any renewal of or substitution for any Lien permitted by any of the preceding Clauses (1) through
(5), provided, in the case of a Lien permitted under Clause (1), (2) or (4), the debt secured is not increased nor the Lien extended to any additional assets. 

  
 65 

 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary
may create or assume Liens in addition to those permitted by Clauses (1) through (6), and renew, extend or replace such Liens, provided that at the time of such creation, assumption, renewal, extension or replacement of such Lien,
and after giving effect thereto, together with any sale and leaseback transactions permitted under Section 10.06(b) hereof, Exempted Debt does not exceed 20% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. 

(d) For the purposes of this Section 10.05 and Section 10.06, the giving of a guarantee that is
secured by a Lien on any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property, and the creation of a Lien on any shares of stock, Indebtedness or other obligations of a Subsidiary or any Principal Property to
secure Indebtedness that existed prior to the creation of such Lien, shall be deemed to involve the creation of Indebtedness in an amount equal to the principal amount guaranteed or secured by such Lien. 

Section 10.06 LIMITATION ON SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS. 

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, sell or transfer, directly or indirectly,
except to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, any Principal Property as an entirety, or any substantial portion thereof, with the intention of taking back a lease of such property, except a lease for a period of two years or less at the end of
which it is intended that the use of such property by the lessee will be discontinued; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may sell any such Principal Property and lease it back for a longer period:

 (1) if the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled, pursuant to Section 10.05
hereof, to create a mortgage on the property to be leased securing Funded Debt in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such sale and leaseback transaction without equally and ratably securing the outstanding Securities; or

 (2) if the Company promptly informs the Trustee of such transaction, the net proceeds of such transaction are
at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined by Board Resolution) of such property, and the Company causes an amount equal to the net proceeds of the sale to be applied to the retirement, within 180 days after receipt of such proceeds, of
Funded Debt Incurred or assumed by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (including the Securities); provided further that, in lieu of applying all or any part of such net proceeds to such retirement, the Company may, within 75 days after such sale
or transfer, deliver or cause to be delivered to the applicable trustee for cancellation either debentures or notes evidencing Funded Debt of the Company (which may include the Outstanding Securities) or of a Restricted Subsidiary previously
authenticated and delivered by the applicable trustee, and not theretofore tendered for sinking fund purposes or called for a sinking fund or otherwise applied as a credit against an obligation to

  
 66 

 
redeem or retire such notes or debentures. If the Company so delivers debentures or notes to the applicable trustee and an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee, the amount of cash that the
Company will be required to apply to the retirement of Funded Debt will be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate of the then applicable optional redemption prices (not including any optional sinking fund redemption prices) of such debentures
or notes, or if there are no such redemption prices, the principal amount of such debentures or notes, provided, that in the case of debentures or notes which provide for an amount less than the principal amount thereof to be due and payable upon a
declaration of the maturity thereof, such amount of cash shall be reduced by the amount of principal of such debentures or notes that would be due and payable as of the date of such application upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity
thereof pursuant to the terms of the indenture pursuant to which such debentures or notes were issued; or 
 (3)
if the Company, within 180 days after the sale or transfer, applies or causes a Restricted Subsidiary to apply an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of such sale or transfer or the Fair Market Value of the Principal Property (or portion
thereof) so sold and leased back at the time of entering into such sale and leaseback transaction (in either case as determined by Board Resolution of the Company) to purchase other Principal Property having a Fair Market Value at least equal to the
Fair Market Value of the Principal Property (or portion thereof) sold or transferred in such sale and leaseback transaction. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into sale and leaseback transactions in addition to those permitted in Subsection (a) and without any
obligation to retire any outstanding notes or other Funded Debt, provided that at the time of entering into such sale and leaseback transactions and after giving effect thereto, together with any Liens permitted under Section 10.05(c)
hereof, Exempted Debt does not exceed 20% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. 
 Section 10.07 PROVISIONS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

 Whether or not the Company is subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will, to the extent
permitted under the Exchange Act, file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Company would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) if the Company was so
subject, such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the date (the “Required Filing Date”) by which the Company would have been required so to file such documents if the Company was so subject. The Company will
also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date (i) transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the security register, without cost to such Holders and (ii) file with the Trustee copies of
the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Company would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Company were subject to either of such Sections and
(y) if filing such documents by the Company with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request and payment of the reasonable cost of duplication and delivery, supply copies of such documents to any
prospective Holder at the Company’s cost.

 Section 10.08 WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS. 

Except as specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, the Company may omit with respect to any series of
Securities in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 10.05, 10.06 and 10.07 and any other covenants specified pursuant to Section 3.01 if, before or after the time for
such compliance, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance with respect to such series in such instance with
such covenant or provision, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee
in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

 Section 11.05 NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. 
 Notice of redemption shall be given

If the Company elects to give notice of redemption, it shall provide the Trustee with a certificate stating that such notice has been given in compliance with the requirements of this Section 11.05. 

The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives
such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
Security. 
 Section 11.06 DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE. 
 On or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its Affiliates is acting as Paying

Date) accrued interest on, all the applicable series of Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail or deliver to Holders of Securities so redeemed payment in an amount equal to the Redemption Price

shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by such Security.

PURCHASED IN PART. 
 Any Security which is to be redeemed or purchased only in part shall be surrendered to the Paying
Agent at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02 (with, if the Company, the Security Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to

the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the unredeemed portion of the principal of the

Republic Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under
the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of
                                         
            ($                    ) United States dollars on
                                , at the office or agency of the Company referred
to below, and to pay interest thereon from                                 , or
from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually on                      and in
each year, commencing                      at the rate of         % per annum, in United States
dollars, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the                      or
                                 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may
be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid, or duly provided for, and interest on such defaulted interest at the interest rate borne by the Securities, to the extent lawful, shall 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 any 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 Trustee, notice thereof shall be given to Holders of Securities 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 may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in this Indenture.

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF SECURITY]* 

REPUBLIC SERVICES, INC. 
         % Note due 
 This Security
is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its         % Notes due
                     (herein called the “Securities”), limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture referred to
below) in aggregate principal amount to $            , issued under and subject to the terms of an indenture (herein called the “Indenture”) dated as of
                            , between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee
(herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. 

The Securities may be redeemed at any time, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, upon
not less than 30 and not more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders thereof as provided in the Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (2) the sum of
the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate, plus
             basis points, plus, in each case, accrued interest to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of holders of record of such Securities on relevant record
dates to receive interest due on an interest payment date), if any. 
 If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed,
the Trustee shall select, not more than 60 nor less than 30 days before the Redemption Date, the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by any other method the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.

 In the case of any redemption of Securities in accordance with the Indenture, interest installments whose Stated Maturity is
on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities of record as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date or Special Record Date referred to on the face hereof. Securities (or portions thereof)
for whose redemption and payment provision is made in accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the Redemption Date. 
 In the event of redemption or repurchase of this Security in accordance with the Indenture in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
  

	*	Any other provisions not contained in this form of Security which is contained in a supplemental indenture may be included or described in this Security and other terms
which are amended by the supplemental indenture shall be set forth in this Security as so amended. 

  
 A-5

 If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount of all the
Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture
contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire Indebtedness on the Securities and (b) certain covenants and Defaults and Events of Default, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein.

 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions (including certain amendments permitted without the consent of any Holders and
certain amendments which required the consent of all of the Holders) as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture and the Securities at
any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series (100% of the Holders of such series in certain circumstances) at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such affected series, to waive
compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and the Securities of such series and certain past Defaults and Events of Default under the Indenture and the Securities of such series and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by or on behalf of 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. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and
no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company or any other obligor on the Securities (in the event such other obligor is obligated to make payments in respect of the Securities), which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, this Security at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the
Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount,
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities in certificated form are issuable only in
registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Securities of a differing authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

  
 A-6

 Except as indicated in the Indenture, 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 payable in connection therewith. 
 A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 
 THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
GIVING EFFECT TO THE TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF. 
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the
Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
