shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from the contemporaneous redemption of the Debt Securities. Redemptions of the Trust Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each Redemption Date only to the
extent that the Trust has immediately available funds then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price. 
  
 (d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of any Preferred Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time,
on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 402(c), the Property Trustee, shall, with respect to Preferred Securities held in global form, deposit with the Clearing Agency for such Preferred Securities, to the extent available therefor, funds
sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give such Clearing Agency irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities. With respect to Trust Securities that are not held in
global form, the Property Trustee, subject to Section 402(c), shall deposit with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and shall give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption
Price to the record holders thereof upon surrender of their Preferred Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Trust Securities called for redemption shall be payable to
the Holders of such Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required,
then upon the date of such deposit, (i) all rights of Securityholders holding Trust Securities so called for redemption shall cease, except the right of such Securityholders to receive the Redemption Price, but without interest, (ii) such Trust
Securities shall cease to be Outstanding, (iii) the Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its nominee, as the registered Holder of the Global 

  

 16 

 
Preferred Securities Certificate, shall receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the Debt Securities to be delivered upon such
distribution with respect to Preferred Securities held by the Clearing Agency or its nominee, and (iv) any Trust Securities Certificates not held by the Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its nominee as specified in clause (iii) above
will be deemed to represent Debt Securities having a principal amount equal to the stated Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities represented thereby and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid
Distributions on such Trust Securities until such certificates are presented to the Securities Registrar for transfer or reissuance. In the event that any date on which any Redemption Price is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the
Redemption Price payable on such date shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year,
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day (and without any reduction of interest or any other payment in respect of any such acceleration), in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. In the event
that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Trust or by the Depositor pursuant to the Guarantee, Distributions on such Trust Securities
shall continue to accumulate, at the then applicable rate, from the Redemption Date originally established by the Trust for such Trust Securities to the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment date shall be the
date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price. 
  
 (e) Payment of the Redemption Price on the Trust Securities shall be made to the record holders thereof as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record date, which shall be
the date 15 days prior to the relevant Redemption Date. 
  
 (f) Subject to Section 404(a), if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated on
a pro rata basis (based on Liquidation Amounts) among the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities. The particular Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee
from the Outstanding Preferred Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method (including, without limitation, by lot) as the Property Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of
portions (equal to the Liquidation Amount or an integral multiple of such Liquidation Amount in excess thereof) of the Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities of a denomination larger than such Liquidation Amount. The Property Trustee shall
promptly notify the Securities Registrar in writing of the Preferred Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Preferred Securities selected for partial redemption, the Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of
this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of the Preferred Securities shall relate, in the case of any Preferred Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
  
 Section 403. [Conversion. After                             ,
20    , the Holders of Trust Securities, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section, shall have the right, at their option, to cause the Conversion Agent to convert Trust Securities, on behalf of the converting
Holders, into shares of Common Stock in the manner described herein on and subject to the following terms and conditions: 
  
 (a) Subject to subparagraph (b) below, the Trust Securities will be convertible into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
pursuant to the Holder’s direction to the Conversion Agent to exchange such Trust Securities for a portion of the Debt Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of such Trust Securities, and immediately
convert such amount of Debt Securities into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at an 

  

 17 

 
initial rate of                      shares of
Common Stock for each Trust Security (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $             per share of Common Stock), subject to certain adjustments set forth in
the Indenture (as so adjusted, “Conversion Price”). 
  
 (b) At any time after                             ,
20    , the Depositor may elect to make a cash settlement in respect of any Trust Security surrendered for exchange by delivering notice thereof to the tendering Holder not more than five Trading Days after such Trust
Security is surrendered for exchange. Such cash settlement shall be in an amount, per $__ Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities delivered for exchange, equal to the product of (i) the then-prevailing Conversion Price and (ii) the average of the
Closing Price of the Common Stock on the five Trading Days commencing two Trading Days after delivery by the Depositor of such notice to such Holder. The Depositor will pay such cash settlement amount as promptly as practicable after the completion
of such five Trading Day period. 
  
 (c) Before
any Holder of a Trust Security shall be entitled to convert the same into Common Stock or, at the option of the Depositor, cash, as the case may be, the Holder of such Trust Securities shall deliver to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable Conversion
Request to convert Trust Securities on behalf of such Holder, together, if the Trust Securities are in certificated form, with such certificates duly endorsed to the Trust or in blank. The Conversion Request shall (i) set forth the number of Trust
Securities to be converted and the name or names, if other than the Holder, in which the shares of Common Stock or cash, as the case may be, should be issued and (ii) direct the Conversion Agent (A) to exchange such Trust Securities for a portion of
the Debt Securities held by the Property Trustee (at the rate of exchange specified in the preceding paragraph) and (B) to immediately convert such Debt Securities, on behalf of such Holder, into Common Stock (at the conversion rate specified in the
preceding paragraph) or, at the option of the Depositor, cash, as the case may be. The Conversion Agent shall notify the Property Trustee in writing of the Holder’s election to exchange Trust Securities for a portion of the Debt Securities held
by the Property Trustee, and the Property Trustee shall, upon receipt of such written notice, deliver to the Conversion Agent the appropriate principal amount of Debt Securities for exchange in accordance with this Section. The Conversion Agent
shall thereupon notify the Depositor of the Holder’s election to convert such Debt Securities into shares of Common Stock. Holders of Trust Securities at the close of business on a Distribution payment record date will be entitled to receive
the Distribution paid on such Trust Securities on the corresponding Distribution Date notwithstanding the conversion of such Trust Securities on or following such record date but prior to such Distribution Date. Except as provided above, neither the
Trust nor the Depositor will make, or be required to make, any payment, allowance or adjustment upon any conversion on account of any accumulated and unpaid Distributions whether or not in arrears accrued on the Trust Securities surrendered for
conversion, or on account of any accumulated and unpaid dividends on the shares of Common Stock issued upon such conversion. 
  
 Trust Securities submitted for conversion prior to the expiration of conversion rights as provided in Section 4.03(d) shall be deemed to have been
converted immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which an irrevocable Conversion Request relating to such Trust Securities is received by the Conversion Agent in accordance with the foregoing provision (the “Conversion
Date”). The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debt Securities shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Stock on the Conversion Date. As promptly as
practicable on or after the Conversion Date, if applicable, the Depositor shall issue and deliver at the office of the Conversion Agent a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion,
together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of any fraction of any share to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same, unless otherwise directed by the Holder in the Conversion Request and the Conversion Agent shall distribute such
certificate or certificates to such Person or Persons. 
  

 18 

 (d) The conversion rights of holders of the Debt Securities and the corresponding
conversion rights of Holders of Trust Securities shall expire either (i) at the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date set for redemption of the Trust Securities upon the mandatory or optional redemption of the Debt Securities or
(ii) at the close of business on the Business Day prior to the maturity of the principal of the Debt Securities. 
  
 (e) Each Holder of a Trust Security by its acceptance thereof initially appoints The Bank of New York not in its individual capacity but
solely as conversion agent (the “Conversion Agent”) for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Trust Securities in accordance with this Section. In effecting the conversion and transactions described in this Section, the Conversion
Agent shall be acting as agent of the Holders of Trust Securities directing it to effect such conversion transactions. The Conversion Agent is hereby authorized (i) to exchange Trust Securities from time to time for Debt Securities held by the Trust
in connection with the conversion of such Trust Securities in accordance with this Section and (ii) to convert all or a portion of the Debt Securities into Common Stock and thereupon to deliver such shares of Common Stock or cash, as the case may
be, in accordance with the provisions of this Section and to deliver to the Property Trustee any new Debt Security or Debt Securities for any resulting unconverted principal amount delivered to the Conversion Agent by the Trustee under the
Indenture. 
  
 (f) No fractional shares of Common
Stock will be issued as a result of conversion, but, in lieu thereof, such fractional interest will be paid in cash by the Depositor to the Conversion Agent in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of the Common Stock on
the last Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date, and the Conversion Agent will in turn make such payment to the Holder(s) of Trust Securities so converted. 
  

(g) Nothing in this Section 403 shall limit the requirement of the Trust to withhold taxes pursuant to the terms of the Trust
Securities or as set forth in this Trust Agreement or otherwise required of the Property Trustee or the Trust to pay any amounts on account of such withholdings.] 
  
 Section 404. Subordination of the Common Securities. 
  
 (a) Payment of Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if applicable) on, and the Redemption Price of,
the Trust Securities, as applicable, shall be made, subject to Section 402(f), pro rata among the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities based on the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities; provided, however, that if on any Distribution
Date or Redemption Date any Event of Default resulting from a Debt Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no payment of any Distribution (including Additional Amounts, if applicable) on, or Redemption Price of, any Common
Security, and no other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation or other acquisition of the Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if
applicable) on all Outstanding Preferred Securities for all Distribution periods terminating on or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the Redemption Price the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Preferred Securities then
called for redemption, shall have been made or provided for, and all funds immediately available to the Property Trustee shall first be applied to the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if applicable) on, or
the Redemption Price of, the Preferred Securities then due and payable. 
  
 (b) In the case of the occurrence of any Event of Default resulting from a Debt Security Event of Default, the Holder of the Common Securities shall be deemed to have waived any right to act with respect to any such
Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until the effect of all such Events of Default with respect to the Preferred Securities shall have been cured, waived or otherwise 

  

 19 

 
eliminated. Until any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement with respect to the Preferred Securities shall have been so cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of the Preferred Securities and not the Holder of the Common Securities, and only the Holders of the Preferred Securities shall have the right to direct the Property Trustee
to act on their behalf. 
  
 Section 405. Payment
Procedures. Payments of Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if applicable) in respect of the Preferred Securities shall be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Securities
Register or, if the Preferred Securities are held by a Clearing Agency, such Distributions shall be made to the Clearing Agency in immediately available funds, which will credit the relevant accounts on the applicable Distribution Dates. Payments in
respect of the Common Securities shall be made in such manner as shall be mutually agreed between the Property Trustee and the Common Securityholder. 
  
 Section 406. Tax Returns and Reports. The Administrative Trustees shall prepare (or cause to be prepared), at the Depositor’s expense, and
file all United States federal, state and local tax and information returns and reports required to be filed by or in respect of the Trust. In this regard, the Administrative Trustees shall (a) prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed)
the appropriate Internal Revenue Service form required to be filed in respect of the Trust in each taxable year of the Trust; and (b) prepare and furnish (or cause to be prepared and furnished) to each Securityholder the appropriate Internal Revenue
Service form required to be furnished to such Securityholder or the information required to be provided on such form. The Administrative Trustees shall provide the Depositor with a copy of all such returns and reports promptly after such filing or
furnishing. The Property Trustee shall comply with United States federal withholding and backup withholding tax laws and information reporting requirements with respect to any payments to the Securityholders under the Trust Securities. 

 
 Section 407. Payment of Taxes, Duties, Etc. of the Trust. Upon
receipt under the Debt Securities of Additional Payments, the Property Trustee, at the direction of an Administrative Trustee or the Depositor, shall promptly pay any taxes, duties or governmental charges of whatsoever nature (other than withholding
taxes) imposed on the Trust by the United States or any other taxing authority. 
  
 Section 408. Payments Under the Indenture. Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Preferred Securities shall be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder has directly received under
the Indenture pursuant to Section 514(b) or (c) hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE V. 
 THE TRUST SECURITIES CERTIFICATES 
  
 Section 501. Initial Ownership. Upon the creation of the Trust and the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to
Section 203 and until the issuance of the Trust Securities, and at any time during which no Trust Securities are outstanding, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust. 
  
 Section 502. The Trust Securities Certificates. The Preferred
Securities Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of the Liquidation Amount and integral multiples of such Liquidation Amount in excess thereof, and the Common Securities Certificates shall be issued in denominations of the
Liquidation Amount and integral multiples thereof. The Trust Securities Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of at least one Administrative Trustee. The Trust Securities Certificates bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this Trust Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of 

  

 20 

 
them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such Trust Securities Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of delivery
of such Trust Securities Certificates. A transferee of a Trust Securities Certificate shall become a Securityholder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Securityholder hereunder, upon due registration of such
Trust Securities Certificate in such transferee’s name pursuant to Sections 505, 512 and 514. 
  
 Section 503. Execution, Authentication and Delivery of the Trust Securities Certificates. 
  
 (a) On the Closing Date and on the date on which the
underwriters exercise their Option, as applicable (an “Option Closing Date”), the Administrative Trustees shall cause the Trust Securities Certificates, in an aggregate Liquidation Amount as provided in Sections 204 and 205, to be executed
on behalf of the Trust by the manual or facsimile signature of at least one of the Administrative Trustees and delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its Chief Executive Officer and President, any Executive Vice
President, the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer without further corporate action by the Depositor, in authorized denominations. 
  
 (b) A Preferred Securities Certificate shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the
Property Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Preferred Securities Certificate has been authenticated under this Trust Agreement. Each Preferred Security Certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

 
 (c) Upon the written order of the Trust signed by one of
the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery the Preferred Securities Certificates. 
  
 (d) The Property Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Trust to authenticate the Preferred Securities. An
Authenticating Agent may authenticate the Preferred Securities whenever the Property Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Trust Agreement to authentication by the Property Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An Authenticating Agent
has the same rights as the Property Trustee to deal with the Depositor or the Trust. 
  
 Section 504. Global Preferred Security. 
  
 (a) Any Global Preferred Security issued under this Trust Agreement shall be registered in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency
and delivered to such custodian therefor, and such Global Preferred Security shall constitute a single Preferred Security for all purposes of this Trust Agreement. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust Agreement, no Global Preferred Security may be
exchanged for Preferred Securities registered in the names of persons other than the Depositary or its nominee unless (i) the Depositary notifies the Debenture Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for such Global
Preferred Securities and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor depositary, (ii) the Depositor executes and delivers to the Debenture Trustee a written order stating that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depositary or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Debt Security Event of Default. 
  
 (c) If a Preferred Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Security, then either
(i) such Global Preferred Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article V or (ii) the Liquidation Amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged
or cancelled, or equal to the Liquidation Amount of such other Preferred Securities to be so exchanged for a 

  

 21 

 
beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities Registrar, whereupon the
Property Trustee, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary for such Global Preferred Security (the “Applicable Procedures”), shall instruct the Clearing Agency or its authorized representative to make a corresponding
adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Preferred Security by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Administrative Trustees shall execute and the Property Trustee shall, subject to
Section 505(b) and as otherwise provided in this Article V, authenticate and deliver any Preferred Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Preferred Security (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing
Agency. The Property Trustee shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions. 
  
 (d) Every Preferred Security executed, authenticated and
delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Preferred Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article V or otherwise, shall be executed, authenticated and delivered in the form of, and
shall be, a Global Preferred Security, unless such Global Preferred Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Clearing Agency for such Global Preferred Security or a nominee thereof. 
  
 (e) The Clearing Agency or its nominee, as the registered
owner of a Global Preferred Security, shall be considered the Holder of the Preferred Securities represented by such Global Preferred Security for all purposes under this Trust Agreement and the Preferred Securities, and owners of beneficial
interests in such Global Preferred Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures and, except as otherwise provided herein, shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of any such Preferred Securities in definitive
form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof under this Trust Agreement. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in the Global Preferred Securities shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected
only through, records maintained by the Clearing Agency or its nominee. Neither the Property Trustee, the Securities Registrar nor the Depositor shall have any liability in respect of any transfers effected by the Clearing Agency. 
  
 (f) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global
Preferred Security shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such owners and the Clearing Agency. 
  
 Section 505. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of the Preferred Securities Certificates. 
  
 (a) The Depositor shall keep or cause to be kept, at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 509, a register or registers for the purpose of registering the Trust Securities Certificates and, subject to the provisions of Section 504, transfers and exchanges of the Preferred Securities
Certificates (herein referred to as the “Securities Register”) in which the registrar designated by the Depositor (the “Securities Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the
registration of the Preferred Securities Certificates and the Common Securities Certificates (subject to Section 511 in the case of the Common Securities Certificates) and registration of transfers and exchanges of the Preferred Securities
Certificates as herein provided. The Property Trustee shall be the initial Securities Registrar. 
  
 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 504, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Preferred Securities Certificate at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 509, the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized
denominations of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount dated the date of execution by the manual or facsimile signature of such Administrative Trustee or Trustees. The Securities Registrar shall not be required to register the 

  

 22 

 
transfer of any of the Preferred Securities that have been called for redemption. At the option of a Holder, the Preferred Securities Certificates may be
exchanged for other Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized denominations of the same class and of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount upon surrender of the Preferred Securities Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained
pursuant to Section 509. 
  
 (c) Every Preferred
Securities Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, subject to the provisions of Section 504, shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Property Trustee and the
Securities Registrar duly executed by the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Preferred Securities Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Property
Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. The Trust shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any of the Preferred Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days before the
date of mailing of a notice of redemption of any of the Preferred Securities called for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any of the Preferred Securities so
selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any such Preferred Securities being redeemed in part. 
  
 (d) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates, subject to the
provisions of Section 504, but the Securities Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Preferred Securities Certificates.

  
 (e) Preferred Securities may only be
transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Trust Agreement. Any transfer or purported transfer of any Preferred Security not made in accordance with this Trust Agreement shall be null and void. A
Preferred Security that is not a Global Preferred Security may be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Preferred Security that is not a Global Preferred Security as provided in Section 505(a). A
beneficial interest in a Global Preferred Security may be exchanged for a Preferred Security that is not a Global Preferred Security only as provided in Section 504. 
  
 Section 506. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Trust
Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Securities Certificate; and (b) there shall be
delivered to the Securities Registrar, the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust Securities Certificate
shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust shall execute and make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Securities Certificate under this Section 506, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities
Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 506 shall constitute
conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate shall be found at any time. 
  
 Section 507. Persons Deemed the Securityholders. The Trustees, the
Paying Agent and the Securities Registrar shall treat the Person in whose name any Trust Securities Certificate shall be registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Trust Securities Certificate for the purpose of 

  

 23 

 
receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the
contrary. 
  
 Section 508. Access to List of the
Securityholders’ Names And Addresses. At any time when the Property Trustee is not also acting as the Securities Registrar, the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Property Trustee (a)
semi-annually on or before January 15 and July 15 in each year, a list, in such form as the Property Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Securityholders as of the most recent record date; and (b) promptly after receipt
by any Administrative Trustee or the Depositor of a request therefor from the Property Trustee in order to enable the Property Trustee to discharge its obligations under this Trust Agreement, in each case to the extent such information is in the
possession or control of the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor and is not identical to a previously supplied list or has not otherwise been received by the Property Trustee in its capacity as Securities Registrar. The rights of the
Securityholders to communicate with other Securityholders with respect to their rights under this Trust Agreement or under the Trust Securities, and the corresponding rights of the Trustee shall be as provided in the Trust Indenture Act. Each
Holder, by receiving and holding a Trust Securities Certificate, and each owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold the Depositor, the Property Trustee or the Administrative Trustees accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and
address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. 
  
 Section 509. Maintenance of Office Or Agency. The Administrative Trustees shall maintain in a location or locations designated by the Administrative Trustees, an office or offices or agency or agencies where
the Preferred Securities Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Trustees in respect of the Trust Securities Certificates may be served. The Administrative Trustees
initially designate the Corporate Trust Administration Department of the Property Trustee, 101 Barclay Street, 21st Floor, New York, New York 10286, as the principal corporate trust office for such purposes. The Administrative Trustees shall give
prompt written notice to the Depositor and to the Securityholders of any change in the location of the Securities Register or any such office or agency. 
  
 Section 510. Appointment of the Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee, and any co-paying agent chosen by the
Property Trustee must be acceptable to the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor. The Paying Agent shall make Distributions to the Securityholders from the Payment Account and shall report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property
Trustee and the Administrative Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Payment Account for the purpose of making the Distributions referred to above. The Administrative Trustees may revoke such power and
remove the Paying Agent if such Trustees determine in their sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in any material respect. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted
to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee and the Depositor. In the event that the Property Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign
or its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a successor that is acceptable to the Property Trustee and the Depositor to act as the Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Administrative Trustees
shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Administrative Trustees to execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Securityholders in trust for the benefit of the Securityholders entitled thereto until such sums shall
be paid to such Securityholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Property Trustee and, upon removal of a Paying Agent, such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions
of 

  

 24 

 
Sections 801, 803 and 806 shall apply to the Property Trustee also in its role as the Paying Agent, for so long as the Property Trustee shall act as Paying
Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other Paying Agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise. 
  
 Section 511. Ownership of the Common Securities by the Depositor. On
the Closing Date, the Depositor shall acquire and retain beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a
merger or consolidation of the Depositor into another corporation pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Indenture) shall be void. The Administrative Trustees shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to the Depositor to contain a legend
stating “THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE”. 
  
 Section 512. The Preferred Securities Certificates. 
  
 (a) Each owner shall receive a Preferred Securities Certificate representing such owner’s interest in such Preferred Securities. Upon the issuance of the Preferred Securities Certificates, the Trustees shall
recognize the record holders of the Preferred Securities Certificates as the Securityholders. The Preferred Securities Certificates shall be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global Preferred Securities Certificates which will be
deposited with or on behalf of the Clearing Agency and registered in the name of the Clearing Agency’s nominee. Unless and until it is exchangeable in whole or in part for the Preferred Securities in definitive form, a global security may not
be transferred except as a whole by the Clearing Agency to a nominee of the Clearing Agency or by a nominee of the Clearing Agency to the Clearing Agency or another nominee of the Clearing Agency or by the Clearing Agency or any such nominee to a
successor of such Clearing Agency or a nominee of such successor. 
  
 (b) A single Common Securities Certificate representing the Common Securities shall be issued to the Depositor in the form of a definitive Common Securities Certificate. 
  
 Section 513. Notices. To the extent that a notice or other
communication to the Holders is required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as Preferred Securities are represented by a Global Preferred Securities Certificate, the Trustees shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be
given to the Clearing Agency, and, except as set forth herein or in Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act with respect to the Property Trustee, shall have no obligation to provide notice to the owners of the beneficial interest in the Global
Preferred Securities. 
  
 Section 514. Rights of the
Securityholders. 
  
 (a) The legal title to
the Trust Property is vested exclusively in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 209, and the Securityholders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets
of the Trust conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust except as described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only
the rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights. When issued and delivered to Holders of the Preferred Securities against payment of the purchase price therefor,
the Preferred Securities shall be fully paid and nonassessable interests in the Trust. The Holders of the Preferred Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of
private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. 
  

 25 

 (b) For so long as any of the Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, if, upon a Debt
Security Event of Default, the Debenture Trustee fails or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities fail to declare the principal of all of the Debt Securities to be immediately due and payable, the
Holders of at least 25% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall have such right by a notice in writing to the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee; and upon any such declaration such principal amount of and the
accrued interest on all of the Debt Securities shall become immediately due and payable, provided that the payment of principal and interest on such Debt Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in the Indenture. 
  
 (c) For so long as any of the Preferred Securities remain
Outstanding, upon a Debt Security Event of Default arising from the failure to pay interest or principal on the Debt Securities, the Holders of any of the Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the
right to directly institute proceedings for enforcement of payment to such Holders of principal of or interest on the Debt Securities having a principal amount equal to the Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities of such Holders. 

 
 ARTICLE VI. 
 ACTS OF THE SECURITYHOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING 
  
 Section 601. Limitations on Voting Rights. 
  
 (a) Except as provided in this Section 601, in Sections 810 and 1002 and in the Indenture and as otherwise set forth in the Guarantee or
required by law, no record Holder of Preferred Securities shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the administration, operation and management of the Trust or the obligations of the parties hereto; nor shall anything herein
set forth, or contained in the terms of the Trust Securities Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Securityholders from time to time as partners or members of an association. 
  
 (b) So long as any Debt Securities are held by the Property
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, the Trustees shall not (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or executing any trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with
respect to such Debt Securities; (ii) waive any past default which is waivable under Article V of the Indenture; (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debt Securities shall be due and payable; or
(iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debt Securities, where such consent shall be required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of at least a majority in Liquidation Amount
of all the Outstanding Preferred Securities; provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of each holder of outstanding Debt Securities affected thereby, no such consent shall be given by the Property Trustee
without the prior written consent of each holder of the Preferred Securities. The Trustees shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities, except when authorized by a
subsequent vote of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall notify each holder of the Outstanding Preferred Securities of any notice of default received from the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debt
Securities. In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Trustees shall, at the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced in
such matters to the effect that the Trust shall continue to be classified as a grantor trust and not as an association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes on account of such action. 
  
 (c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement
provides for, or the Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special 

  

 26 

 
rights of the holders of the Preferred Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or otherwise; or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or
termination of the Trust, other than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities as a class shall be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not
be effective except with the approval of the Holders of, with respect to matters described in (i) above, at least 66 2/3% in Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Preferred Securities and with respect to matters described in (ii) above, at least a
Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. No amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a result of such amendment, the Trust would cease to be classified as a grantor trust or would be classified as an
association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. 
  
 Section 602. Notice of Meetings. Notice of all meetings of the Preferred Securityholders, stating the time, place and purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 1008 to
each Preferred Securityholder of record, at his or her registered address, at least 15 days and not more than 90 days before the meeting. At any such meeting, any business properly before the meeting may be so considered whether or not stated in the
notice of the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice. 
  
 Section 603. Meetings of the Preferred Securityholders. 
  
 (a) No annual meeting of the Securityholders is required to be held. The Administrative Trustees, however, shall call a meeting of the
Securityholders to vote on any matter in respect of which the Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote upon the written request of the Preferred Securityholders of 25% of the Outstanding Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate
Liquidation Amount) and the Administrative Trustees or the Property Trustee may, at any time in their discretion, call a meeting of the Preferred Securityholders to vote on any matters as to which the Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote.

  
 (b) The Preferred Securityholders of record
of 50% of the Outstanding Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount), present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of the Securityholders. 
  
 (c) If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote
by the Preferred Securityholders of record present, in person or by proxy, holding more than a majority of the Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount) held by the Preferred Securityholders of record present, either in
person or by proxy, at such meeting shall constitute the action of the Securityholders, unless this Trust Agreement requires a greater number of affirmative votes. 
  
 Section 604. Voting Rights. The Securityholders shall be entitled to one vote for each dollar value of Liquidation
Amount represented by their Trust Securities (with any fractional multiple thereof rounded up or down as the case may be to the closest integral multiple) in respect of any matter as to which such Securityholders are entitled to vote (and such
dollar value shall be $                     per Preferred Security until such time, if any, as the Liquidation Amount is changed as provided
herein). 
  
 Section 605. Proxies, Etc. At any meeting of
the Securityholders, any Securityholder entitled to vote thereat may vote by proxy, provided that no proxy, shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall have been placed on file with the Administrative Trustees, or with such other officer or agent
of the Trust as the Administrative Trustees may direct, for verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Only Holders shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by several persons, any one of them may vote
at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or 

  

 27 

 
their proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be
executed by or on behalf of a Securityholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and, the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of
execution. 
  
 Section 606. Securityholder Action By Written
Consent. Any action which may be taken by the Securityholders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if the Securityholders holding more than a majority of all of the Outstanding Trust Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation
Amount) entitled to vote in respect of such action (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any express provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the action in writing. 
  
 Section 607. Record Date For Voting and Other Purposes. For the
purposes of determining the Securityholders who are entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting or by written consent, or to participate in any Distribution on the Trust Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for
in this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the Administrative Trustees may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of any meeting of the Securityholders or the payment of such Distribution or other
action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the identity of the Securityholders of record for such purposes. 
  
 Section 608. Acts of the Securityholders. 
  
 (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement
to be given, made or taken by the Securityholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Securityholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to an Administrative Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes
referred to as the “Act” of the Securityholders 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 Trust Agreement and
(subject to Section 801) conclusive in favor of the Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section 608. 
  
 (b) 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 or her the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his or her individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her 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 any Trustee receiving the same deems sufficient. 
  
 (c) The ownership of the Preferred Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register. 
  
 (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act of the Securityholder of any Trust Security shall bind every future Securityholder of the same Trust Security and the Securityholder of every Trust Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Trust in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Security. 
  

 28 

 (e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Securityholder entitled hereunder to take any
action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with
regard to all or any part of such Liquidation Amount. 
  
 A
Securityholder may institute a legal proceeding directly against the Depositor under the Guarantee to enforce its rights under the Guarantee without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Guarantee Trustee (as defined in the Guarantee),
the Trust or any Person. 
  
 Section 609. Inspection of
Records. Upon reasonable notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee, the records of the Trust shall be open to inspection and copying by any Securityholder and its authorized representatives during normal business hours for
any purpose reasonably related to such Securityholder’s interest as a Securityholder.

 ARTICLE VIII. 
 TRUSTEES 
  
 Section 801. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 
  
 (a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustees shall be
as provided by this Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Property Trustee, by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trustees to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise
incur any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of their rights or powers, if they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. No Administrative Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be liable for its act or omissions hereunder except as a result of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Property
Trustee’s liability shall be determined under the Trust Indenture Act. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the
Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 801. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Delaware Trustee or an Administrative Trustee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to
the Securityholders, the Delaware Trustee or such Administrative Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Securityholder for such Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust
Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee or the Administrative Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Securityholders to replace such other duties
and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee and the Administrative Trustees, as the case may be. 
  

 31 

 (b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect of the Trust
Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent to make payments
in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Securityholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it shall look solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for distribution to it as herein
provided and that the Trustees are not personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This Section 801(b) does not limit the liability of the
Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in the Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 (c) No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Property Trustee from liability for its own negligent action,
its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
  
 (i) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Property Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
  
 (ii) the
Property Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities relating to
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement; 
  
 (iii) the Property Trustee’s sole duty with respect to
the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Debt Securities and the Payment Account shall be to deal with such property in a similar manner as the Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own account, subject to the
protections and limitations on liability afforded to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement and the Trust Indenture Act; 
  
 (iv) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree with the
Depositor and money held by the Property Trustee need not be segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 301 and except to the extent otherwise required by
law; and 
  
 (v) the Property Trustee shall not
be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the Property Trustee be liable for the negligence, default or misconduct of the
Administrative Trustees or the Depositor. 
  
 Section 802.
Certain Notices. 
  
 (a) Within 5 Business
Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 1008, notice of such Event of Default to the Securityholders, the
Administrative Trustees and the Depositor, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. For purposes of this Section 802, the term “Event of Default” means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would
become, an Event of Default. 
  

 32 

 (b) The Administrative Trustees shall transmit to the Securityholders in the manner and
to the extent provided in Section 1008 notice of the Depositor’s election to begin or further extend any Extended Interest Period on the Debt Securities (unless such election shall have been revoked), and of any election by the Depositor to
extend or accelerate the Maturity Date of the Debt Securities within the time specified for transmitting such notice to the holders of the Debt Securities pursuant to the Indenture as originally executed. 
  
 Section 803. Certain Rights of the Property Trustee. Subject to the
provisions of Section 801: 
  
 (a) the Property
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel, certificate, written representation of a Holder or transferee, certificate of auditors or any other certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties; 
  
 (b) if (i) in performing
its duties under this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses of action; or (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee finds the same ambiguous or
inconsistent with other provisions contained herein; or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure of the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except as to any matter as to which the Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote
under the terms of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Depositor requesting written instructions of the Depositor as to the course of action to be taken and the Property Trustee shall take such action, or refrain
from taking such action, as the Property Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by the Depositor; provided, however, that if the Property Trustee does not receive such instructions of the Depositor within 10
Business Days after it has delivered such notice, or such reasonably shorter period of time set forth in such notice (which to the extent practicable shall not be less than 2 Business Days), it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain
from taking such action not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Securityholders, in which event the Property Trustee shall have no liability except for its own bad faith, negligence or
willful misconduct; 
  
 (c) any direction or act
of the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate; 
  
 (d) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be established
before undertaking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Property Trustee (unless other evidence is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an Officers’
Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees; 
  
 (e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or
continuation statement, any filing under tax or securities laws or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any rerecording, refiling or reregistration thereof; 
  
 (f) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel of its choice (which counsel may be counsel to the
Depositor or any of its Affiliates) and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon and, in accordance
with such advice, such counsel may be counsel to the Depositor or any of its Affiliates, and may include any of its employees; the Property Trustee shall 

  

 33 

 
have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction; 

 
 (g) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Property Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request, order or direction; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Property Trustee of the obligation,
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (that has not been cured or waived) to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; 
  
 (h) the Property Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Securities, but the Property Trustee may make such
further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit; 
  
 (i) the Property Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through its agents or attorneys, provided that the Property Trustee shall be responsible for its own negligence or recklessness with respect to selection of any agent or attorney appointed by it hereunder; 
  
 (j) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement
the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder the Property Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders of the Trust Securities which
instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same proportion in Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities as would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee under the terms of the Trust Securities in respect of such remedy, right or
action; (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such instructions are received; and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance with such instructions; and 
  
 (k) except as otherwise expressly provided by this Trust
Agreement, the Property Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action that is discretionary under the provisions of this Trust Agreement. No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the
Property Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Property Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent in
accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to the Property Trustee shall be construed to be a duty. 
  
 Section 804. Not Responsible For Recitals Or Issuance Of Securities.
The Recitals contained herein and in the Trust Securities Certificates shall be taken as the statements of the Trust, and the Trustees do not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustees shall not be accountable for the use or
application by the Depositor of the proceeds of the Debt Securities. 
  
 Section 805. May Hold Securities. Any Trustee or any other agent of any Trustee or the Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the Trust Securities and, subject to Sections 808 and 813 and
except as provided in the definition of the term “Outstanding” in 

  

 34 

 
Article I, may otherwise deal with the Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not a Trustee or such other agent. 
  
 Section 806. Compensation; Indemnity; Fees. The Depositor agrees:

  
 (a) to pay to the Trustees from time to time
reasonable compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust, in the case of the Property Trustee as set forth in
a written agreement between the Depositor and the Property Trustee); 
  
 (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustees in accordance with any provision of
this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to such Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct (or, in the case of the Administrative Trustees or the Delaware Trustee, any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its, his or her gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct); and 
  
 (c) to indemnify each of the Trustees or any predecessor
Trustee for, and to hold the Trustees harmless against, any loss, damage, claims, liability, penalty or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Trust
Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be
attributable to such Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (or, in the case of the Administrative Trustees or the Delaware Trustee, any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its, his or her gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct). No Trustee may claim any Lien or charge on any Trust Property as a result of any amount due pursuant to this Section 806. 
  
 Section 807. Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees. 
  
 (a) There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder
with respect to the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If the Trust is excluded from the
definition of an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act solely by reason of Rule 3a-7, then at all times, to the extent required by such Rule 3a-7, the Property Trustee shall possess the requisite qualification to hold
“eligible assets” and shall otherwise comply with the applicable requirements of such Rule. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 807, the combined capital and surplus of such Person 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
Property Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 807, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VIII. The
Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may, but need not be, the same person. (b) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative Trustee shall be either a
natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that entity. 
  
 (b) There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a
natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the State of Delaware; or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the State of 

  

 35 

 
Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity.

  
 Section 808. Conflicting Interests. If the Property
Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of,
the Trust Indenture Act and this Trust Agreement. 
  
 Section 809.
Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee. 
  
 (a)
Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be
located, the Depositor shall have power to appoint, and upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall for such purpose join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and
agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Property Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent required by law to act as
separate trustee of any such property, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or
desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section 809. If the Depositor does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Debt Security Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Property Trustee alone shall have power to make such appointment. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 809 shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the
United States; or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the United States that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity. 
  
 (b) Should any written instrument from the Depositor be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so
appointed for more fully confirming to such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged, and delivered by the Depositor. 
  
 (c) Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the
extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely: 
  
 (i) The Trust Securities shall be executed and delivered and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect of the
custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustees specified hereunder, shall be exercised, solely by such Trustees and not by such co-trustee or separate trustee. 

 
 (ii) The rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby
conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Property Trustee or by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate
trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee. 
  

 36 

 (iii) The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with
the written concurrence of the Depositor, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section 809, and, in case a Debt Security Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee
shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Depositor. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall join with the Property Trustee in
the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided
in this Section 809. 
  
 (iv) No co-trustee or
separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or any other trustee hereunder. 
  
 (v) The Property Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate trustee. 
  
 (vi) Any Act of the Holders delivered to the Property
Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee. 
  
 Section 810. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
  
 (a) No resignation or removal of any Trustee (the “Relevant Trustee”) and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this
Article VIII shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 811. 
  

(b) Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Relevant Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Trust Securities by
giving written notice thereof to the Securityholders. If the instrument of acceptance by the successor Trustee required by Section 811 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Depositor, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. 
  
 (c) Unless a Debt Security Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, any Trustee may be removed at any time only by an Act of the Common Securityholder. If a Debt Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them,
may be removed at such time by an Act of the Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, delivered to the Relevant Trustee (in its individual capacity and on behalf of the Trust). An Administrative Trustee may be removed
by the Common Securityholder at any time. 
  
 (d)
If any Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as Trustee, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of any Trustee for any cause, at a time when no Debt Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Common Securityholder, by an Act of the Common Securityholder delivered to the retiring Trustee, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and the successor Trustee shall comply with
the applicable requirements of Section 811. If the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of continuing to act as the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, at a time when a Debt
Security Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Preferred Securityholders, by an Act of the Securityholders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of 

  

 37 

 
the Preferred Securities then Outstanding delivered to the retiring Relevant Trustee, shall promptly appoint a successor Relevant Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and such successor Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 811. If an Administrative Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as an Administrative Trustee,
at a time when a Debt Security Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Common Securityholder, by an Act of the Common Securityholder delivered to an Administrative Trustee, shall promptly appoint a successor Administrative
Trustee or Administrative Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and such successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 811. If no successor Relevant
Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall have been so appointed by the Common Securityholder or the Preferred Securityholders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 811, any Securityholder who has been a Securityholder
of Trust Securities for six consecutive months on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities.

  
 (e) The Property Trustee shall give notice of
each resignation and each removal of a Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all the Securityholders in the manner provided in Section 1008 and shall give notice to the Depositor. Each notice shall include the name of the successor
Relevant Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it is the Property Trustee. 
  
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust Agreement, in the event any Administrative Trustee or a Delaware
Trustee who is a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Depositor, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may be filled by (a) the unanimous act of the remaining Administrative
Trustees if there are at least two of them; or (b) otherwise by the Depositor (with the successor in each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for Administrative Trustees set forth in Section 807). 
  
 Section 811. Acceptance of Appointment By Successor. 
  
 (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor
Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, the retiring Relevant Trustee and each successor Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall execute and deliver an instrument hereto wherein each successor
Relevant Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Relevant Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
retiring Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust and upon the execution and delivery of such instrument the resignation or removal of the retiring Relevant Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and
each such successor Relevant Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust; but, on
request of the Trust or any successor Relevant Trustee such retiring Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Relevant Trustee all the Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by such retiring Relevant
Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust. 
  
 (b) Upon request of any such successor Relevant Trustee, the Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Relevant Trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph, as the case may be. 
  

 38 

 (c) No successor Relevant Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such
acceptance such successor Relevant Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VIII. 
  
 Section 812. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any Person into which the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any
Administrative Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Relevant Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or
substantially all the corporate trust business of such Relevant Trustee, shall be the successor of such Relevant Trustee hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VIII, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. 
  
 Section 813. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Depositor or the Trust. If and when the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Depositor or the Trust (or any
other obligor upon the Debt Securities or the Trust Securities), the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall be subject to and shall take all actions necessary in order to comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture
Act regarding the collection of claims against the Depositor or the Trust (or any such other obligor). 
  
 Section 814. Reports by the Property Trustee. 
  
 (a) The Property Trustee shall transmit to the Securityholders such reports concerning the Property Trustee, its actions under this Trust
Agreement and the property and funds in its possession as the Property Trustee as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. 
  
 (b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to the Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with The New York Exchange, Inc., and each national securities exchange or other self-regulatory organization upon which the Trust Securities are listed or included, and also with the
Commission and the Depositor. 
  
 Section 815. Reports to the
Property Trustee. The Depositor and the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such documents, reports and information as required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act (if any) and the
compliance certificate required by Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act in the form, in the manner and at the times required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Section 816. Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent. Each of the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees
on behalf of the Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such evidence of compliance with any conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement that relate to any of the matters set forth in Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture
Act. Any certificate or opinion required to be given by an officer pursuant to Section 314(c)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be given in the form of an Officers’ Certificate. 
  
 Section 817. Number of Trustees. 
  
 (a) The number of Trustees shall be five, provided that the Holder of all of the Common Securities by
written instrument may increase or decrease the number of the Administrative Trustees. The Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person. 
  

 39 

 (b) If a Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason and the number of the
Administrative Trustees is not reduced pursuant to Section 817(a), or if the number of the Trustees is increased pursuant to Section 817(a), a vacancy shall occur. The vacancy shall be filled with a Trustee appointed in accordance with Section 810.

  
 (c) The death, resignation, retirement,
removal, bankruptcy, incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of a Trustee shall not operate to annul the Trust. Whenever a vacancy in the number of the Administrative Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of
an Administrative Trustee in accordance with Section 810, the Administrative Trustees in office, regardless of their number (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), shall have all the powers granted to the Administrative Trustees
and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Administrative Trustees by this Trust Agreement. 
  
 Section 818. Delegation of Power. 
  
 (a) Any Administrative Trustee may, by power of attorney consistent with applicable law, delegate to any other natural person over the age
of 21 his or her power for the purpose of executing any documents contemplated in Section 207(a); and 
  
 (b) The Administrative Trustees shall have power to delegate from time to time to such of their number or to the Depositor the doing of
such things and the execution of such instruments either in the name of the Trust or the names of the Administrative Trustees or otherwise as the Administrative Trustees may deem expedient, to the extent such delegation is not prohibited by
applicable law or contrary to the provisions of the Trust, as set forth herein. 
  
 Section 819. Voting. Except as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement, the consent or approval of the Administrative Trustees shall require consent or approval by not less than a majority of the
Administrative Trustees, unless there are only two, in which case both must consent. 
  
 ARTICLE IX. 
 TERMINATION, LIQUIDATION AND MERGER 
  
 Section 901. Termination Upon Expiration Date. Unless earlier
dissolved, the Trust shall automatically dissolve                      20     (the “Expiration Date”)
subject to distribution of the Trust Property in accordance with Section 904. 
  
 Section 902. Early Termination. The first to occur of any of the following events is an “Early Termination Event:” 
  
 (a) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event in respect of, or the dissolution or liquidation of, the Depositor;

  
 (b) delivery of written direction to the
Property Trustee by the Depositor at any time (which direction is wholly optional and within the discretion of the Depositor) to dissolve the Trust and distribute the Debt Securities to the Securityholders in exchange for the Preferred Securities in
accordance with Section 904; 
  
 (c) the
redemption of all of the Preferred Securities in connection with the redemption of all of the Debt Securities (whether upon a Debt Security Redemption Date or the maturity of the Debenture); 
  

 40 

 (d) the entrance of an order for dissolution of the Trust shall have been entered by a
court of competent jurisdiction; and 
  
 (e) upon
the distribution of Common Stock to all Securityholders upon conversion of all outstanding Preferred Securities. 
  
 Section 903. Termination. The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustees and the Trust created and continued hereby shall
terminate upon the latest to occur of the following: 
  
 (a) the distribution by the Property Trustee to the Securityholders upon the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to Section 904, or upon the redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to Section 402, of all amounts required to be
distributed hereunder upon the final payment of the Trust Securities; 
  
 (b) the payment of any expenses owed by the Trust; 
  
 (c) the discharge of all administrative duties of the Administrative Trustees, including the performance of any tax reporting obligations
with respect to the Trust or the Securityholders; and 
  
 (d) the filing of a Certificate of Cancellation by the Administrative Trustee under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. 
  
 Section 904. Liquidation. 
  
 (a) If an Early Termination Event specified in clause (a), (b), or (d) of Section 902 occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Trust shall
be liquidated by the Trustees as expeditiously as the Trustees determine to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Securityholder a Like Amount of Debt
Securities, subject to Section 904(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities
at such Holder’s address appearing in the Securities Register. All notices of liquidation shall: 
  
 (i) state the Liquidation Date; 
  
 (ii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Trust Securities shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any Trust
Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange shall be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debt Securities; and 
  
 (iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics by which the Holders may exchange the Trust Securities Certificates for the
Debt Securities, or, if Section 904(d) applies, receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the Administrative Trustees or the Property Trustee shall deem appropriate. 
  
 (b) Except where Section 902(c) or 904(d) applies, in order to effect the liquidation of the Trust and
distribution of the Debt Securities to the Securityholders, the Property Trustee shall establish a record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 45 days prior to the Liquidation Date) and, either itself acting as exchange agent or
through the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Debt Securities in exchange for the Outstanding Trust Securities Certificates. 
  

 41 

 (c) Except where Section 902(c) or 904(d) applies, after the Liquidation Date, (i) the
Trust Securities shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding; (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of the Debt Securities shall be issued to the Holders of Trust Securities Certificates upon surrender of such certificates to the
Administrative Trustees or their agent for exchange; (iii) the Depositor shall use its reasonable efforts to have the Debt Securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other securities exchange or designated for inclusion in Nasdaq or
such other organization as the Preferred Securities are then listed, included or traded; (iv) any Trust Securities Certificates not so surrendered for exchange shall be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debt Securities, accruing interest at the
rate provided for in the Debt Securities from the last Distribution Date on which a Distribution was made on such Trust Securities Certificates until such certificates are so surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments
of interest or principal shall be made to Holders of the Trust Securities Certificates with respect to such Debt Securities); and (v) all rights of the Securityholders holding the Trust Securities shall cease, except the right of such
Securityholders to receive the Debt Securities upon surrender of the Trust Securities Certificates. 
  
 (d) In the event that, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 904, whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a
court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the Debt Securities in the manner provided herein is determined by the Property Trustee not to be practical, the Trust Property shall be liquidated, and the Trust shall be dissolved,
wound-up or terminated, by the Property Trustee in such manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or other termination of the Trust, the Securityholders shall be entitled to receive out of
the assets of the Trust available for distribution to the Securityholders, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus accumulated and
unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the “Liquidation Distribution”). If, upon any such dissolution, winding-up or termination, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has
insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable by the Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation
Amounts, subject to Section 408). The Holder of the Common Securities shall be entitled to receive the Liquidation Distributions upon any such dissolution, winding-up or termination pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with the Holders of the
Preferred Securities, except that, if a Debt Security Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Preferred Securities shall have a priority over the Common Securities. 
  
 Section 905. Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of the Trust. The Trust may not merge with or
into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any corporation or other Person, except pursuant to this Section 905. At the request of the Depositor, with the
consent of the Administrative Trustees and without the consent of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, the Trust may merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, be replaced by or convey, transfer or
lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws of any State; provided, that (a) such successor entity either (i) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Trust with respect to the
Preferred Securities; or (ii) substitutes for the Preferred Securities other securities having substantially the same terms as the Preferred Securities (the “Successor Securities”) so long as the Successor Securities rank the same as the
Preferred Securities rank in priority with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise; (b) the Depositor expressly appoints a trustee of such successor entity possessing substantially the same powers and duties
as the Property Trustee as the holder of the Debt Securities; (c) the Successor Securities are listed or traded, or any Successor Securities shall be listed or traded upon notification of issuance, on any national securities exchange or other
organization on which the Preferred Securities are then listed, if any; (d) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the 

  

 42 

 
rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect; (e) such
successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the Trust; (f) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Depositor has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i)
such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material
respect; and (ii) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Trust nor such successor entity shall be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment
Company Act; and (g) the Depositor owns all of the Common Securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Securities at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee, the Debt
Securities, this Trust Agreement and the Expense Agreement. For purposes of this Section 905, any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition as a result of which (a) the Depositor is not the surviving Person, and (b)
the same Person is not both (i) the primary obligor in respect of the Debt Securities and (ii) the Guarantor under that certain Preferred Securities Guarantee Agreement of even date herewith (the “Guarantee”) between the Depositor and The
Bank of New York, as trustee, shall be deemed to constitute a replacement of the Trust by a successor entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall not, except with the consent of the Holders of 100% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any other Person or permit any other Person to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or
into, or replace it if such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or replacement would cause the Trust or the successor entity to be classified as other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. 
  
 ARTICLE X. 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 Section 1001. Limitation of Rights of the Securityholders. The death or incapacity of any Person having an interest, beneficial or otherwise, in the Trust Securities shall not operate to terminate this Trust
Agreement, nor entitle the legal representatives or heirs of such Person or any Securityholder for such Person to claim an accounting, take any action or bring any proceeding in any court for a partition or winding-up of the arrangements
contemplated hereby, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them. 
  
 Section 1002. Amendment. 
  
 (a) This Trust Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Trustees and the Depositor, without the consent of any Securityholders,
(i) as provided in Section 811 with respect to acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee; (ii) to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision herein or therein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or therein,
or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement, that shall not be inconsistent with the other provisions of this Trust Agreement; (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of this
Trust Agreement to such extent as shall be necessary to ensure that the Trust shall be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust at all times that any of the Trust Securities are outstanding or to ensure that the
Trust shall not be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act; or (iv) to reduce or increase the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security and simultaneously to correspondingly increase or decrease the
number of Trust Securities issued and Outstanding solely for the purpose of maintaining the eligibility of the Preferred Securities for quotation or listing on or inclusion in any national securities exchange or other organization on or in which the
Preferred Securities are then quoted, listed or included (including, if applicable, the New York Stock Exchange); or (v) to conform to any changes in Rule 3a-5 and/or Rule 3a-7, 

  

 43 

 
provided, however, that in the case of clauses (ii) and (v), such action shall not adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder, and provided
further, that in the case of clause (iv) the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities Outstanding upon completion of any such reduction must be the same as the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities outstanding immediately
prior to such reduction or increase, and any amendments of this Trust Agreement shall become effective when notice thereof is given to the Securityholders (or, in the case of an amendment pursuant to clause (iv), as of the date specified in the
notice). 
  
 (b) Except as provided in Section
601(c) or Section 1002(c) hereof, any provision of this Trust Agreement may be amended by the Trustees and the Depositor (i) with the consent of the Trust Securityholders representing not less than a majority (based upon Liquidation Amounts) of the
Trust Securities then Outstanding; and (ii) upon receipt by the Trustees of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Trustees in accordance with such amendment shall not affect the
Trust’s status as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes or the Trust’s exemption from status of an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. 
  
 (c) In addition to and notwithstanding any other provision
in this Trust Agreement, without the consent of each affected Securityholder (such consent being obtained in accordance with Section 603 or 606 hereof), this Trust Agreement may not be amended to (i) change the amount or timing of any Distribution
on the Trust Securities or otherwise adversely affect the amount of any Distribution required to be made in respect of the Trust Securities as of a specified date; or (ii) restrict the right of a Securityholder to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment on or after such date; notwithstanding any other provision herein, without the unanimous consent of the Securityholders (such consent being obtained in accordance with Section 603 or 606 hereof), this paragraph (c) of this
Section 1002 may not be amended. 
  
 (d)
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust Agreement, no Trustee shall enter into or consent to any amendment to this Trust Agreement which would cause the Trust to fail or cease to qualify for the exemption from status of an
“investment company” under the Investment Company Act or to fail or cease to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, without the consent of the Depositor,
this Trust Agreement may not be amended in a manner which imposes any additional obligation on the Depositor. 
  
 (f) In the event that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is made, the Administrative Trustees shall promptly provide to the Depositor a
copy of such amendment. 
  
 (g) Neither the
Property Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be required to enter into any amendment to this Trust Agreement which affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Trust Agreement. The Property Trustee shall be entitled to receive an
Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate stating that any amendment to this Trust Agreement has been effected in compliance with this Trust Agreement. 
  
 Section 1003. Separability. In case any provision in this Trust Agreement or in the Trust Securities Certificates
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
