Exhibit 10.1
ORCHID ISLAND CAPITAL, 
INC. 
2022 LONG-TERM EQUITY INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN 
This 2022 Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2022 Plan”) sets forth 
terms and conditions on which equity awards may be made by Orchid Island Capital, Inc. (the 
“Company”). 
 
All employees of Bimini Advisors, LLC, which is the Company’s external manager (the 
“Manager”), and employees of entities affiliated with the Manager (collectively, 
the 
“Employees”) are eligible to participate in the 2022 Plan. Members of our Manager’s and its 
affiliates’ senior management team also serve as the Company’s 
executive officers, including the 
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. 
All of the Employees are 
referred to as “Participants.” Being a Participant does not entitle the individual to an award under 
the 2022 Plan. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the 
“Committee”) will have absolute sole discretion over all aspects of the 2022 Plan, including but 
not limited to the ability to reduce the amount of any bonus award or the size of the bonus pool 
even if the performance objectives and other terms of the 2022 Plan are satisfied and to adjust 
the Company’s book value for purposes of the 2022 Plan due to dilutive issuances of the 
Company’s common stock. 

 
Participants will be eligible to earn awards under the 2022 Plan for performance over the 
next one-year, three-year and five-year periods. A bonus pool will be established under the 2022 
Plan for each of the one-, three- and five-year measurement periods. The amount credited to the 
bonus pool will be based on the Company’s performance under each of the three performance 
criteria (which are described below) of the 2022 Plan for each of the three measurement periods. 
The Committee, in its discretion, will determine each Participant’s award (
i.e.
, the percentage of 
the bonus pool paid to each Participant). 

 
The maximum amount that may be credited to the bonus pool for each measurement 
period will equal the average management fees paid by the Company to the Manager (pursuant 
to the terms of the management agreement between the Company and the Manager) for such 
period multiplied by the applicable percentage described in the table below. Under the 2022 
Plan, the maximum bonus pool for awards to be issued for performance during (i) the one-year 
measurement period will equal 20% of the average monthly management fee earned during 2022 
multiplied by 12, (ii) the three-year measurement period will equal 35% of the average annual 
management fee paid for 2022 through 2024 and (iii) for the five-year measurement period will 
equal 45% of the average annual management fee paid for 2022 through 2026. 

 
As noted above, the amount credited to the bonus pool for each measurement period will 
reflect the Company’s performance measured against the three performance criteria described 
below. The table below illustrates the maximum amount that may be credited to the bonus pool 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

for each measurement period (as a percentage of the average management fees for the applicable 
period). The table also shows the amount that may be credited to the bonus pool for each 
measurement period (also as a percentage of the average management fees for the applicable 
period) for achievement of objectives with respect to each of the performance criteria. For 
example, the maximum amount that may be credited to the bonus pool for the three-year 
measurement period based on Agency RMBS rate (as defined below) relative performance is 
10.50% of the average management fees paid for 2022 through 2024.

The Committee established the following performance measures and the performance 
thresholds that must be satisfied for awards to be earned under the 2022 Plan. 

 
Peer-Relative Financial Performance. 
No amount will be earned for this performance 
measure unless the Company’s financial performance for the applicable measurement period 
exceeds the mean of the financial performance of the companies in the Peer Group (defined 
below) for the applicable measurement period. The financial performance of the Company and 
those in the Peer Group will equal the sum of total dividends paid during the measurement period 
and the change in book value during the measurement period divided by the book value on the 
first day of the applicable measurement period. The “Peer Group” consists of the following 
companies: AGNC Investment Corp., Annaly Capital Management, Inc., Arlington Asset 
Investment Corp., ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc., Cherry Hill Mortgage 
Investment 
Corporation, Dynex Capital, Inc. and Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. In the event that a company 
in the Peer Group merges with another entity, 
sells all or a significant portion of its business, 
dissolves, liquidates or the Committee determines that a company has substantially changed its 
business in such a way that it no longer conducts a similar business to the Company’s business, 
then such company will be removed from the Peer Group for the measurement period(s) when 
such event occurs. 
 
Agency RMBS Rate Relative Performance. 
The Company’s performance under this 
performance measure will equal the sum of the change in book value during the applicable 
measurement period and total dividends paid during the measurement period. No amount will be 
earned for this performance measure unless the Company’s performance as calculated in the 
preceding sentence for the applicable measurement period exceeds the Agency RMBS rate 
multiplied by the number of years in the measurement period. The “Agency RMBS rate” will 
equal the yield on the Fannie Mae 30-year fixed rate current coupon mortgage as of the 
beginning of 2022 of 2.067% (determined by averaging the rate as of the last business day of 
2021 and the first business day of 2022) plus 400 bps, or 6.067%.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Peer-Relative Book Value 
Performance. 
 
No amount will be earned for this performance 
measure unless the Company’s change in book value for the applicable measurement period 
(calculated in accordance with the following sentence) exceeds the mean change in book value 
for the companies in the Peer Group. The change in book value for the Company and those in the 
Peer Group will be determined by subtracting the book value on the first day of the measurement 
period from the book value on the last day in the measurement period, with such amount divided 
by the book value on the first day of the measurement period. 
 
If the Company’s results for a performance measure equal or are less than the threshold 
for a measurement period, no amount will be added to the bonus pool for the measurement 
period with respect to that measurement criterion. The table below details the amounts by which 
the Company’s performance must exceed the threshold performance measures described above 
for the maximum bonus award to be added to the bonus pool. Linear interpolation will be used 
for results falling between the threshold and the result that must be achieved to earn the 
maximum award.

Threshold + 15.0% 
Peer-relative book value performance
Threshold + 2.0% 
Threshold + 4.0% 
Threshold + 6.0% 
 
Awards for 
these three measurement periods will be paid no later than March 30 of the 
year 
following the end of the relevant measurement period. The Committee anticipates that 50% of 
earned bonuses will be paid in unrestricted shares of the Company’s common stock and 50% will 
be paid in the form of “Performance Units,” all of which will be issued under the 2021 Equity 
Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The number of unrestricted shares of the Company’s common 
stock and Performance Units to be issued in satisfaction of the earned bonuses will be 
determined by dividing the amount of such bonus by the average closing price of the Company’s 
common stock on the New York 
Stock Exchange for the 10 trading days preceding the grant date 
of the common stock and Performance Units rounded to the nearest whole number. The 
Performance Units will vest at the rate of 10% per quarter commencing with the first quarter 
after the one year anniversary of the end of the applicable measurement period, with the 
Participant receiving one share of the Company’s common stock for each Performance Unit that 
vests. The Participant must continue to be employed by the Company as of the end of each such 
quarter in order to vest in the number of Performance Units scheduled to vest on that date. In the 
event of a Change in Control (as defined in the 2021 Plan) or the death or disability of the 
Participant, all of his or her Performance Units will be vested. When vested, each Performance 
Unit will be settled by the issuance of one share of the Company’s common stock, at which time 
the Performance Unit shall be cancelled immediately, but in no case later than March 30 of the 
year after the year in which the Performance Units vest. 

 
The Performance Units will contain dividend equivalent rights which entitle the 
Participants to receive distributions declared by the Company on common stock. One 
Performance Unit is equivalent to one share of common stock for purposes of the dividend 
equivalent rights. Other than dividend equivalent rights, the Performance Units do not entitle the 
Participants to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company. 

 
The number of outstanding Performance Units will be subject to the following 
adjustments prior to the date on which such Performance Unit vests: 
 
Book Value 
Impairment
. 
A “Book Value 
Impairment” will occur if over any two 
consecutive quarters the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the Company’s book value per 
share declines by 15% or more during the first of such two quarters and (ii) the Company’s book 
value per share decline from the beginning of such two quarters to the end of such two quarters is 
at least 10%. If a Book Value 
Impairment occurs, then the number of Performance Units that are 
outstanding as of the last day of such two quarter period shall be reduced by 15%. 
 
Extraordinary Book Value 
Preservation
. 
“Extraordinary Book Value 
Preservation” will 
occur in any quarter in which the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the median change in the 
book value per share of the companies in the Peer Group (the “Median Book Value 
Decline”) is 
a decline of 6% or more and (ii) the Company’s book value per share either (a) increases or (b) 
declines by a percentage that is less than 50% of the Median Book Value 
Decline. If an event of 
Extraordinary Book Value 
Preservation occurs, then the number of Performance Units that are 
outstanding as of the last day of the quarter in which the Extraordinary Book Value 
Preservation 
has occurred shall be increased by 5 basis points for every 1 basis point of difference between 
the Company’s book value per share percentage change and the Median Book Value 
Decline 
during such quarter. 
 
Outperform All Peer Companies
. 
The Company will “Outperform All Peer Companies” 
in any quarter in which the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the companies in the Peer 
Group all experience a decline in book value per share and (ii) the Company’s book value per 
share either (a) increases or (b) declines by an amount that is less than the decline experienced by 
each company in the Peer Group. If the Company Outperforms All Peer Companies in any 
quarter, then the number of Performance Units that are outstanding as of the last day of such 
quarter shall increase by 10%. 
 
The Committee anticipates adopting similar plans for future years with modifications to 
the performance measures and hurdle rates as the Committee deems appropriate.EX-4.4

 13 

 (b) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture,
the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities and, if required pursuant to Section 3.01, a
supplemental indenture, Company Order or Officer’s Certificate setting forth the terms of the Securities of a series. The Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities without any further action by the Company. The Company

provided for in this Indenture have been complied with, and an Opinion of Counsel, prepared in accordance with Section 15.01 and substantially in the form set forth below: 

(i) that the form or forms of such Securities have been established in accordance with Article II and Section 3.01
and in conformity with the other provisions of this Indenture; 
 (ii) that the terms of such Securities have been
established in accordance with Section 3.01 and in conformity with the other provision of this Indenture; 
 (iii) that
such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company,
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights,
(B) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding, judicial or otherwise) and (C) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; 

(iv) if applicable, that the supplemental indenture, setting forth the terms of such Securities, when executed and delivered by
the Trustee in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to (A) bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, (B) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding,
judicial or otherwise) and (C) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and 
 (v) that all conditions
precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture in respect of the authentication and delivery by the Company of such Securities have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall
not be necessary to deliver the Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication of each Security of such series if such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion
of Counsel is delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued; provided that nothing in this clause (c) is intended to derogate Trustee’s rights to receive an
Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel under Section 15.01. 
 (d) The Trustee shall have the right to decline to
authenticate and deliver the Securities under this Section 3.03 if the issue of the Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise. 

  
 14 

 (e) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

(f) If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.01 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in the
form of one or more Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered, if in registered form, in the name of the Depository for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee of such Depository,
(iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 

UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR THE INDIVIDUAL SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS
SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO ON THE REVERSE HEREOF, THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITORY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TO THE DEPOSITORY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE
OF THE DEPOSITORY OR BY THE DEPOSITORY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITORY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITORY. 
 The
aggregate principal amount of each Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Security Custodian, as provided in this Indenture. 

(g) Each Depository designated pursuant to Section 3.01 for a Global Security in registered form must, at the time of its designation an
at all times while it serves as such Depository, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation. 

(h) Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any
Global Security held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Security Custodian under such Global Security, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar and any of their agents as the absolute
owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar or any of their agents from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depository governing the exercise of the rights of an owner of a beneficial
interest in any Global Security. The Holder of a Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Members and Persons that may hold interests through Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under
this Indenture or the Securities. 
 (i) No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in one of the forms provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent by manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Paying Agent for cancellation as
provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

  
 15 

 Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. 

(a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise reproduced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are
issued, in registered form and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such temporary Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such temporary
Securities. Any such temporary Security may be in global form, representing all or a portion of the Outstanding Securities of such series. Every such temporary Security shall be executed by the Company and shall be authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the definitive Security or Securities in lieu of which it is issued. 

(b) If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of such temporary Securities at the office or
agency maintained by the Company in a Place of Payment for such purposes provided in Section 5.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall
in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 (c) Upon any exchange of a
portion of a temporary Global Security for a definitive Global Security or for the individual Securities represented thereby pursuant to this Section 3.04 or Section 3.06, the temporary Global Security shall be endorsed by the Registrar to
reflect the reduction of the principal amount evidenced thereby, whereupon the principal amount of such temporary Global Security shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed. 

Section 3.05. Registrar. 

(a) The Company shall keep, at an office or agency to be maintained by it in a Place of Payment where Securities may be presented for
registration or presented and surrendered for registration of transfer or of exchange, and where Securities of any series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, as applicable (the
“Registrar”), a security register for the registration and the registration of transfer or of exchange of the Securities (the registers maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment
being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Register”), as in this Indenture provided, which Register shall be open for inspection by the Trustee during business hours on business days in the location of the Registrar.
Such Register shall be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Company may have one or more co-Registrars; the term
“Registrar” includes any co-registrar. 
 (b) The Company shall enter into an
appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or co-Registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify
the Trustee of the name and address of each such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar for any series, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any Affiliate thereof may act as Registrar,
co-Registrar or transfer agent. 
 (c) The Company hereby initially appoints
[                                        ] at its
Corporate Trust Office as Registrar in connection with the Securities and this Indenture, until such time as another Person is appointed as such in replacement of the Trustee as such. So long as the Trustee serves as Registrar, it will be entitled
as Registrar to the same rights of compensation, reimbursement and indemnification under Section 10.01 and Section 10.02 as if it were Trustee. No Person shall at any time be appointed as or act as Registrar unless such Person is at such
time empowered under applicable law to act as such Registrar. 

  
 16 

 Section 3.06. Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) Generally. 
 (i) Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the Registrar, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of
the same series of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. The transfer of any Security shall not be valid as against the Company or the Trustee unless registered at the Registrar at the request of the
Holder, or at the request of his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 (ii) Subject to this
Section 3.06(a) and Section 3.06(b), at the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon
surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

(iii) The provisions of clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) below shall apply only to Global Securities: 

(A) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for
such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. 

(B) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, and subject to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be
specified as contemplated in Section 3.01, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the
Depository for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depository (i) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Security or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing
agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in each case, a successor depository is not appointed within 90 days, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default with respect to such Global Security, or (C) the Company, at its
option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause such transfer. 
 (C) Subject to clause (B) above, and
subject to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified as contemplated in Section 3.01, any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities may be made in whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for a Global
Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depository for such Global Security shall direct. 

(D) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global
Security or any portion thereof shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

  
 17 

 (b) Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Transfers and exchanges of Securities and
beneficial interests in a Global Security of the kinds specified in this Section 3.06(b) shall be made only in accordance with this Section 3.06(b). 

(i) Transfer of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. The transfer of beneficial interests in
Global Securities will be effected through the applicable Depository, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. The transferor of such beneficial interest in a Global Security must deliver to the
Registrar both (A) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the applicable Depository in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the applicable Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial
interest in another Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interests in a Global Security to be transferred or exchanged, and (B) instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the
Participant account to be credited with such increase. 
 (ii) Transfer or Exchange of Beneficial Interests for
Certificated Securities. If any one of the events listed in Section 3.06(a)(iii)(B) has occurred, (y) the Company has elected to cause the issuance of certificated Securities, transfers or exchanges of beneficial interests in a
Global Security for a certificated Security shall be effected, or (z) any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a Certificated Security or to transfer such beneficial interest to
a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Certificated Security, then, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.06(b)(i) hereof, the Trustee will cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global
Security to be reduced accordingly pursuant to Section 3.06(c) hereof, and the Company will execute and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Person designated in the instructions a Certificated
Security in the appropriate principal amount. Any Certificated Security issued in exchange for a beneficial interest pursuant to this Section 3.06(b)(ii) will be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denomination or
denominations as the holder of such beneficial interest shall instruct the Registrar through instructions from the Depository and the Participant or Indirect Participant. The Trustee shall deliver such Certificated Securities to the Persons in
whose names such Securities are so registered. Any Certificated Security issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global Security pursuant to this Section 3.06(b)(ii) will not bear a restrictive security legend. 

(iii) Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Securities for Beneficial Interests. A Holder of a Certificated Security may
exchange such Security for a beneficial interest in a Global Security or transfer such Certificated Security to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security at any time. Upon receipt of a request
for such an exchange or transfer, the Paying Agent will cancel the applicable Certificated Security and increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of one of the Global Securities. If any such exchange or transfer from a
Certificated Security to a beneficial interest in a Global Security is effected at a time when an Global Security has not yet been issued, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee will authenticate one or more Global
Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Certificated Securities so transferred. 
 (iv)
Transfer of Certificated Securities for Certificated Securities. A Holder of Certificated Securities may transfer such Securities to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of an Certificated Security. Upon request by a
Holder of Certificated Securities and such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 3.06(b)(iv), the Registrar will register the transfer of Certificated Securities pursuant to the instructions from the Holder
thereof. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder must present or surrender to the Registrar the Certificated Securities duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or by its attorney, duly authorized in writing. 

  
 18 

 (c) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities. At such time as all
beneficial interests in a particular Global Security have been exchanged for Certificated Securities or a particular Certificated Security has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security will be
returned to or retained and canceled by the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.09 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will
take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security or for Certificated Securities, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made
on such Global Security by the Registrar or by the Depository at the direction of the Registrar to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest in a Global Security is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery
thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Security by the Registrar or by the Depository at the direction of the
Registrar to reflect such increase. 
 (d) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance
with any restrictions on transfer or exchange imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer or exchange of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Participants or beneficial owners
in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 Section 3.07. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and
Stolen Securities. 
 (a) If (i) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office or
(ii) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to them to save each of them and
any Paying Agent harmless, and neither the Company nor the Trustee receives notice that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, then the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor, form, terms and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding, and neither gain nor loss
in interest shall result from such exchange or substitution. 
 (b) In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has
become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay the amount due on such Security in accordance with its terms. 

(c) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.07, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in respect thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith. 

(d) Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation
of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that
series duly issued hereunder. 

  
 19 

 (e) The provisions of this Section 3.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 

Section 3.08. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

(a) Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the
Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest notwithstanding the cancellation of such Security upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to the
Record Date. Payment of interest on Securities shall be made at the Corporate Trust Office (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01) or, at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto
as such address shall appear in the Register or, in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee, by wire transfer to an account designated by the Holder. 

(b) Any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Record Date by virtue of his, her or its having been such a Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in
each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below: 
 (i) The Company may elect to make payment of any
Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest (a “Special Record
Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time
the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the
proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder of Securities of such
series, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been given as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in
whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii). 

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

(c) Subject to the foregoing provisions in this Section 3.08, each Security delivered under this Indenture in exchange or substitution
for, or upon registration of transfer of, any other Security shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, if any, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

  
 20 

 Section 3.09. Cancellation. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to
Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, all Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or otherwise shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Paying Agent, be delivered to the Paying Agent
for cancellation and shall be promptly cancelled by it and, if surrendered to the Paying Agent, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Paying Agent for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and
delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Paying Agent for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder that the Company has not issued or sold, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Paying Agent. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. The Paying Agent
shall dispose of all cancelled Securities held by it in accordance with its then customary procedures, unless otherwise directed by a Company Order, and deliver a certificate of such disposal to the Company upon its request therefor. The acquisition
of any Securities by the Company shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the Indebtedness represented thereby unless and until such Securities are surrendered to the Paying Agent for cancellation. 

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

Section 3.11. Currency of Payments in Respect of Securities. 

(a) The Company may provide pursuant to Section 3.01 for Securities of any series that (i) the obligation, if any, of the Company to
pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Securities of any series in a Foreign Currency or U.S. Dollars (the “Designated Currency”) as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.01 is of the essence and agrees
that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, judgments in respect of such Securities shall be given in the Designated Currency; (ii) the obligation of the Company to make payments in the Designated Currency of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on such Securities shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other Currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the Designated Currency that the Holder
receiving such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other Currency (after any premium and cost of exchange) on the business day in the country of issue of the Designated Currency or in the
international banking community (in the case of a composite currency) immediately following the day on which such Holder receives such payment; (iii) if the amount in the Designated Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short
of the amount originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and (iv) any obligation of the Company not discharged by such payment shall be due as a separate and independent
obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on, Securities of such series shall be made in U.S. Dollars. 
 (b) If the principal of, premium, if any, or interest,
on any Security is payable in a Foreign Currency and such Currency is not available to the Company for making payment thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company shall be
entitled to satisfy its obligations to Holders of the Securities by making such payment in U.S. Dollars in an amount equivalent of the amount payable in such other Currency at the Exchange Rate as determined pursuant to
clause (d) below. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary herein, any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. Dollars where the required payment is in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars shall not constitute an Event of
Default under this Indenture. 

  
 21 

 (c) For purposes of any provision of this Indenture where the Holders of Outstanding
Securities may perform an action that requires that a specified percentage of the Outstanding Securities of all series perform such action and for purposes of any determination by the Trustee of amounts due and unpaid for the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on, the Securities of all series in respect of which moneys are to be disbursed ratably, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Outstanding Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be the amount in
U.S. Dollars based upon the Exchange Rate as determined pursuant to clause (d) below (or as specified pursuant to Section 3.01, if applicable) for Securities of such series, as of the date for determining whether the Holders entitled
to perform such action have performed it or as of the date of such determination by the Trustee, as the case may be. 
 (d) Any decision or
determination to be made regarding the Exchange Rate shall be made by the Company or an agent appointed by the Company (the Company, in such capacity, or such agent, the “Currency Determination Agent”); provided that such
agent shall accept such appointment in writing and the terms of such appointment shall, in the opinion of the Company at the time of such appointment, require such agent to make such determination by a method consistent with the method provided
pursuant to Section 3.01 for the making of such decision or determination. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, “Exchange Rate” shall mean, for any Currency, the noon buying rate in New York City for cable
transfers for such Currency as the applicable Exchange Rate, as such rate is reported or otherwise made available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the date of such payment, or, if such rate is not then available, on the basis of the most
recently available rate. All decisions and determinations of such agent regarding the Exchange Rate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company, the Trustee and all Holders of the
Securities. 
 Section 3.12. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing any Securities may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar
numbers, if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice of redemption or exchange, as a convenience to Holders, with respect to such series; provided that any such notice
may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the
Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Agents of any change in the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers. 

ARTICLE IV 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 4.01. Applicability of Right of Redemption. Redemption of Securities permitted by the terms of any series of Securities
shall be made (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article IV; provided, however, that if any such terms of a series of Securities shall conflict with
any provision of this Article IV, the terms of such series shall govern. 
 Section 4.02. Selection of Securities to be
Redeemed. 
 (a) If the Company shall at any time elect to redeem all or any portion of the Securities of a series then Outstanding, it
shall at least 15 days (or such shorter period acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the date the notice of redemption is to be mailed, notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. If less
than all of the Securities in any series are to be redeemed, the Securities for redemption will be selected as follows: (i) if such Securities are listed on any securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the securities exchange
on which such Securities are then traded or if such Securities are held through the clearing systems, in compliance with the requirements of the applicable clearing systems; or (ii) if such Securities are not listed on any securities exchange,
on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate, unless otherwise required by law; provided that, in each case, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an
authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. In any case where more than one Security of such series is registered in the same name, the Trustee may treat the aggregate principal
amount so registered as if it were represented by one Security of such series. 

  
 22 

 (b) For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all
provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security that has been or is to be redeemed. If the Company shall
so direct, Securities registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Securities selected for redemption. 

Section 4.03. Notice of Redemption. 

(a) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request (which may be rescinded or revoked at any time prior
to the time at which the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to the Holders of Securities of
any series to be redeemed in whole or in part pursuant to this Article IV, in the manner provided in Section 15.04; provided that the Trustee be provided with the draft notice at least 15 days (or such shorter period acceptable to
the Trustee) prior to sending such notice of redemption. Any notice given in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. Failure to give such notice, or any
defect in such notice to the Holder of any Security of a series designated for redemption, in whole or in part, shall not affect the sufficiency of any notice of redemption with respect to the Holder of any other Security of such series. 

(b) All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if available)
and shall state: 
 (i) such election by the Company to redeem Securities of such series pursuant to provisions contained in
this Indenture or the terms of the Securities of such series in a Company Order, Officer’s Certificate or a supplemental indenture establishing such series, if such be the case; 

(ii) the Redemption Date; 

(iii) the Redemption Price (or the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated); 

(iv) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
redemption, the principal amounts) of the Securities of such series to be redeemed; 
 (v) that on the Redemption Date the
Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed, and that, if applicable, interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date; and 

(vi) (if the Notes are in certificated form) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities are to be surrendered for
payment of the Redemption Price. 

  
 23 

 Section 4.04. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to 10:00 a.m., New
York City time, on each Redemption Date for any Securities, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 5.03) an
amount of money in the Currency in which such Securities are denominated (except as provided pursuant to Section 3.01) sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on such Securities or any portions thereof that are to be
redeemed on that date. The Paying Agent shall not be bound to make any payment until it has received in immediately available and cleared funds the full amount due to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 4.04. 

Section 4.05. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, any Securities so
to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price and from and after such date (unless the Company shall Default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Securities shall cease to bear interest, and,
except as provided in Section 11.07, such Securities shall cease from and after the Redemption Date to be entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except
the right to receive the Redemption Price thereof and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Trustee or Paying Agent with the
moneys deposited in accordance with Section 4.04 above at the Redemption Price (unless the Company shall Default in the payment of the Redemption Price); provided, however, that (unless otherwise provided pursuant to
Section 3.01) installments of interest that have a Stated Maturity on or prior to the Redemption Date for such Securities shall be payable according to the terms of such Securities and the provisions of Section 3.08. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until paid or
duly provided for, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 4.06.
Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security that is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the Corporate Trust Office or such other office or agency of the Company as is specified pursuant to Section 3.01 with, if the Company,
the Registrar or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in
writing, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of like tenor and form, of any authorized denomination as
requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered; provided that if a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Depository for such Global Security, without service charge, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so
surrendered. In the case of a Security providing appropriate space for such notation, at the option of the Holder thereof, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new Security or Securities as aforesaid, may make a notation on such Security of the
payment of the redeemed portion thereof. 
 Section 4.07. Tax Redemption. 

(a) Each series of Securities may be redeemed at any time, at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, upon notice as described
below, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if (i) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of the Relevant Jurisdiction (or, in the case of Additional Amounts payable by a successor Person to the
Company, the applicable Successor Jurisdiction), or any change in the official application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the Issue Date (or, in the case of Additional
Amounts payable by a successor Person to the Company, the date on which such successor Person to the Company became such pursuant to this Indenture) (a “Tax Change”), the Company or any such successor Person to the Company is, or
would be, obligated to pay Additional Amounts upon the next payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest in respect of such Securities and (ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company or any such successor Person to the Company
taking reasonable measures available to it, provided that changing the jurisdiction of organization or tax residency of the Company or such successor Person to the Company is not a reasonable measure for purposes of this Section 4.07(a). 

  
 24 

 (b) Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption of the Securities pursuant to
Section 4.07(a), the Company or any such successor Person to the Company shall deliver to the Trustee (i) a notice of such redemption election, (ii) an opinion of an Legal Counsel or an opinion of an Independent Tax Consultant to the
effect that the Company or any such successor Person to the Company is, or would become, obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as the result of a Tax Change and (iii) an Officer’s Certificate from the Company or any such successor
Person to the Company, stating that such amendment or change has occurred, describing the facts leading thereto and stating that such requirement cannot be avoided by the Company or any such successor Person to the Company taking reasonable measures
available to it. 
 (c) Notice of such a redemption of the Securities shall be given to the Holders of such Securities not less than 30 days
nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice having been given, the Securities shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date and will be paid at the Redemption Price, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not
including, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), at the place or places of payment and in the manner specified in the Securities or
this Indenture. From and after the Redemption Date, if moneys for the redemption of the Securities shall have been made available as provided in this Indenture for redemption on the Redemption Date, the Securities shall cease to bear interest, and
the only right of the Holders of the Securities shall be to receive payment of the Redemption Price and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 

Section 4.08. Open Market Purchase. The Company or any of its Controlled Entities may, in accordance with all applicable
laws and regulations, at any time purchase the Notes in the open market or otherwise at any price, so long as such purchase does not otherwise violate the terms of the Indenture. The Notes so purchased, while held by or on behalf of the Company or
any of its Controlled Entities, shall not be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Notes have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent or waiver hereunder. The Notes that the Company or its Affiliates purchase may, in the discretion of the Company, be held, resold or canceled, but will only be resold in compliance with applicable requirements or exemptions under the
relevant securities laws. 
 ARTICLE V 

PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

The Company hereby covenants and agrees as follows: 

Section 5.01. Payments of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company, for the benefit of each series of Securities, shall duly
and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, each series of Securities, at the dates and place and in the manner provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. 

Section 5.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency; Paying Agent. 

(a) The Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities, if any, an office or agency where Securities may be
presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served.
The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the
Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The Company hereby initially appoints
[                                        ] as
Paying Agent to receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. So long as the Trustee serves as Paying Agent, it will be entitled as Paying Agent to the same rights of compensation, reimbursement and indemnification under
Section 10.01 and Section 10.02 as if it were Trustee. 

  
 25 

 (b) The Company may also from time to time designate different or additional offices or
agencies where the Securities of any series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes (in or outside of such Place of Payment), and may from time to time rescind any such designations; provided, however, that no such
designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations described in the preceding paragraph. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such additional designation or rescission of designation
and of any change in the location of any such different or additional office or agency. The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of
this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each such agent. The Company or any Affiliate thereof may act as Paying Agent and shall inform the Trustee of the same. 

(c) With respect to any Global Security, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Security as contemplated by
Section 3.01, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the Place of Payment where such Global Security may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Securities may be
delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depository for such Global Security shall be deemed to have been
effected at the Place of Payment for such Global Security in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Section 5.03. To
Hold Payment in Trust. 
 (a) If the Company or an Affiliate thereof shall at any time act as Paying Agent with respect to any series of
Securities, then, on or before the date on which the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on any of the Securities of that series by their terms or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption shall become payable, the Company or such
Affiliate shall segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities or the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, or interest, which shall have so become payable until such sums shall be paid to
such Holders or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and shall notify the Trustee of its action or failure to act in that regard. 

Upon any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state bankruptcy laws with respect to the Company or any Affiliate thereof, if
the Company or such Affiliate is then acting as Paying Agent, the Trustee shall promptly replace the Company or such Affiliate as Paying Agent. 

(b) If the Company shall appoint, and at the time have, a Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on
any series of Securities, then prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date on which the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on any of the Securities of that series shall become payable as above provided, whether by their terms
or as a result of the calling thereof for redemption, the Company shall deposit with such Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, or interest, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of such
Securities, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee), the Company or any other obligor of such Securities shall promptly notify the Trustee of its payment or failure to make such payment. The Paying Agent shall not be bound to make any payment
until it has received in immediately available and cleared funds the full amount due to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 5.03(b). 

(c) If the Paying Agent shall be a Person other than the Trustee, the Company shall cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.03, that such Paying Agent shall: 

(i) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as Paying Agent; 

  
 26 

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

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

(d) Anything in this Section 5.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a release,
satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee as required by this Section 5.03, such sums to be
held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent and, upon such payment by a Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect
to such moneys. 
 (e) Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest, has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon Company Order and
the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment of such amounts without interest thereon, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money,
and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be
published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company. Subject to written instructions from the Company, any unclaimed funds held by the Trustee or the
Paying Agent (as the case may be) may be invested and any interest accumulated thereon shall be paid to the Company by the Trustee or the Paying Agent (as the case may be). If the bank or institution with which the unclaimed funds are invested is
the Trustee or a Subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it need only account for an amount of interest equal to the amount of interest which would, at the then current rates, be payable by it on such a deposit to an independent
customer. The Trustee or the Paying Agent (as the case may be) shall not be responsible for any resulting loss from any such investment made in accordance with the written direction of the Company, whether by depreciation in value, change in
exchange rates or interest rates or otherwise and shall not be liable to the Company, the Holders or any other Person. 
 Section 5.04.
Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities: 

(a) The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person in a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity,
or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to, any Person, unless 

  
 27 

 (i) any Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which the
Company is merged or to whom the Company has conveyed, transferred or leased its properties and assets substantially as an entirety is a corporation, partnership, trust or other entity validly existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands,
the Cayman Islands, the PRC or Hong Kong and such Person expressly assumes by an indenture supplemental to this Indenture all the obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Securities, including the obligation to pay Additional Amounts
with respect to any jurisdiction in which it is organized or resident for tax purposes; 
 (ii) immediately after giving
effect to the transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; and 

(iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an opinion of Legal Counsel, each stating that
such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and such supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture and that all conditions precedent therein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. 

(b) Upon any consolidation with or merger into any other entity, or any sale other than for cash, or any conveyance or lease, of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with this Section 5.04, the successor entity formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which the Company is sold or to which such conveyance,
transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named as the Company herein, and thereafter,
except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Company shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities, and from time to time such successor entity may exercise each and every right and power of the
Company under this Indenture, in the name of the Company, or in its own name; and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Indenture required or permitted to be done by the Board of Directors or any officer of the Company may be done with like
force and effect by the like board of directors or officer of any entity that shall at the time be the successor of the Company hereunder. In the event of any such sale or conveyance, but not any such lease, the Company (or any successor entity
which shall theretofore have become such in the manner described in this Section 5.04) shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and may thereupon be dissolved and liquidated. 

Section 5.05. [Reserved] 

Section 5.06. Repurchase Upon Triggering Event. The following shall apply with respect to the Securities so long as any of the
Securities remain outstanding: 
 (a) If a Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the
Securities of a particular series pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 4.07 hereof, the Company shall make an offer to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (equal to US$2,000 or multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof
(or such other denominations in which such Securities are issuable)) of each Holder’s Securities pursuant to the offer described below (the “Triggering Event Offer”), at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount of Securities repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities repurchased to, but not including, the date of purchase (the “Triggering Event Payment”) (subject to the right of Holders of
record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). Within 30 days following any Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Outstanding Securities pursuant
Section 3.01 or Section 4.07 hereof, the Company will send a notice of such Triggering Event Offer to each Holder or otherwise give notice in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, with a copy to the Trustee, stating: 

  
 28 

 (i) that a Triggering Event Offer is being made pursuant to this
Section 5.06, including a description of the transaction or transactions that constitute the Triggering Event, and that all Securities properly tendered pursuant to such Triggering Event Offer will be accepted for purchase by the Company at a
purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Securities to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date); 
 (ii) the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30
days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent) (the “Triggering Event Payment Date”); 

(iii) that the Securities of any series must be tendered in amounts of US$2,000 or multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof (or
such other denominations in which such Securities are issuable), and any Security not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 

(iv) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Triggering Event Payment, any Security accepted for payment
pursuant to the Triggering Event Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Triggering Event Payment Date; 
 (v)
that Holders electing to have any Securities purchased pursuant to a Triggering Event Offer will be required to surrender such Securities, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Securities

(vi) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Securities and their election to require the Company to purchase

letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Securities, the principal amount of Securities tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Securities and its election to have such Securities purchased; 

(vii) that if a Holder is tendering less than all of its Securities, such Holder will be issued new Securities equal in
principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Securities must be equal to US$2,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof (or such other denominations in which such

 (viii) the other instructions, as determined by the Company consistent with this
Section 5.06, that a Holder must follow. 
 The notice, if sent in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have
been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (A) the notice is sent in a manner herein provided and (B) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s
failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Securities as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. 

  
 29 

 (b) On the Triggering Event Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 

(i) accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities (of US$2,000 or integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess

tendered, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and send (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each such Holder a new Security equal in principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any;
provided that each new Security will be in a principal amount of US$2,000 or a multiple of US$1,000 in excess thereof (or such other denominations in which such Securities are issuable) (or, if less, the remaining principal amount thereof).

 (d) If the Triggering Event Payment Date is on or after the relevant Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Triggering Event Payment Date shall be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on such Record Date. 

(e) The Company will not be required to make a Triggering Event Offer upon a Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In the event that such third party terminates
or defaults its offer, the Company will be required to make a Triggering Event Offer treating the date of such termination or default as though it were the date of the Triggering Event. 

(f) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, to the
extent applicable, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Triggering Event. To the extent that the
provision of any such securities laws or regulations conflicts with the Triggering Event Offer provisions of the Securities, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations
under the Triggering Event Offer provisions of the Securities by virtue of any such conflict. 
 Section 5.07. Additional
Amounts. 
 (a) All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest made by the Company in respect of any Security shall be made
without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (collectively, “Taxes”) imposed or levied by or within the Cayman Islands or the PRC
(in each case, including any political subdivision or any authority therein or thereof having power to tax) (each, a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction of such Taxes is required by law. If the Company is
required to make such withholding or deduction, the Company shall pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as will result in receipt by each Holder of Securities of such amounts as would have been received by such Holder
had no such withholding or deduction of such Taxes been required, except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable: 

  
 30 

 (i) in respect of any such Taxes that would not have been imposed, deducted
or withheld but for the existence of any connection (whether present or former) between the Holder or beneficial owner of a Security and the Relevant Jurisdiction other than merely holding such Security or receiving principal, premium, if any, or
interest, in respect thereof (including such Holder or beneficial owner being or having been a national, domiciliary or resident of such Relevant Jurisdiction or treated as a resident thereof or being or having been physically present or engaged in
a trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein); 
 (ii) in respect of any Security
presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant date, except to the extent that the Holder thereof would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on the last day of
such 30-day period. For this purpose, the “relevant date” in relation to any Security means the later of (a) the due date for such payment or (b) the date such payment was made or
duly provided for; 
 (iii) in respect of any Taxes that would not have been imposed, deducted or withheld but for a failure
of the Holder or beneficial owner of a Security to comply with a timely request by the Company addressed to the Holder or beneficial owner to provide information concerning such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s nationality, residence,
identity or connection with any Relevant Jurisdiction, if and to the extent that due and timely compliance with such request is required under the tax laws of such jurisdiction in order to reduce or eliminate any withholding or deduction as to which
Additional Amounts would have otherwise been payable to such Holder; 
 (iv) in respect of any Taxes imposed as a result of a
Security being presented for payment (where presentation is required) in the Relevant Jurisdiction, unless such Security could not have been presented for payment elsewhere; 

(v) in respect of any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, use, value added, excise, transfer, personal property, wealth, interest
equalization or similar Taxes (other than any value added Taxes imposed by the PRC or any political subdivision thereof if the Company were to be deemed a PRC tax resident); 

(vi) to any Holder of a Security that is a fiduciary, partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of any payment
to the extent that such payment would be required by the laws of the Relevant Jurisdiction to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, or a member of that partnership or a beneficial
owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, partner or beneficial owner been the Holder thereof; 

(vii) [Reserved] 

(viii) with respect to any withholding or deduction that is imposed in connection with Sections 1471-1474 of the Code and U.S.
Treasury Regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction implementing or relating to FATCA or any non-U.S. law,
regulation or guidance enacted or issued with respect thereto; 
 (ix) in respect of any such Taxes payable otherwise than by
deduction or withholding from payments under or with respect to any Security; or 

  
 31 

 (x) in respect of any combination of Taxes referred to in the preceding
clauses (i) through (ix) above. 
 (b) In the event that any withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes is required
and Additional Amounts are payable with respect thereto, at least 30 days prior to each date of payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Securities, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Paying Agent, if other than
the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount required to be withheld or deducted on such payments to Holders, certifying that the Company shall pay such amounts required to be withheld to the appropriate governmental authority
and certifying to the fact that the Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable to each Holder, and that the Company will pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required to be paid; provided that no
such Officer’s Certificate will be required prior to any date of payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on such Securities if there has been no change with respect to the matters set forth in a prior Officer’s Certificate.
The Trustee and each Paying Agent may rely on the fact that any Officer’s Certificate contemplated by this Section 5.07(b) has not been furnished as evidence of the fact that no withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes
is required. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for and to hold them harmless against any loss or liability incurred without fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct on their part arising out of or in connection
with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any such Officer’s Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 5.07(b) or on the fact that any Officer’s Certificate contemplated by this
Section 5.07(b) has not been furnished. 
 (c) Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest, in respect of any Security, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Indenture, to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would
be payable in respect thereof pursuant to this Indenture. 
 (d) Sections 5.07(a), (b) and (c) shall apply in the same manner
with respect to the jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Company is organized or resident for tax purposes or any authority therein or thereof having the power to tax (a “Successor Jurisdiction”), substituting such
Successor Jurisdiction for the Relevant Jurisdiction. 
 (e) The obligation of the Company to make payments of Additional Amounts under this
Section 5.07 shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 5.08. Payment for
Consent. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Controlled Entities to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or
amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or any series of the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of such series of Securities as may be affected thereby that consent, waive or
agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or amendment 
 Section 5.09.
[Reserved] 
 Section 5.10. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee (a) annually, within
120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company and, (b) upon written request by the Trustee, within 14 days of such request, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting
officer or treasurer as to his or her knowledge of the Company’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture (which compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided
under this Indenture), specifying if any Default has occurred and, in the event that any Default has occurred, specifying each such Default and the nature and status thereof of which such person may have knowledge. 

  
 32 

 Section 5.11. Conditional Waiver by Holders of Securities. Except as otherwise
specified or contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of such series, anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may fail or omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth
herein with respect to any series of Securities if the Company shall have obtained and filed with the Trustee, prior to the time of such failure or omission, evidence (as provided in Article VII) of the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount (or such other number of Holders as may be required by Section 13.02) of the Securities of such series affected by such waiver and at the time Outstanding, either waiving such compliance in such instance or generally
waiving compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, or impair any right consequent thereon and, until such waiver shall have become
effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

Section 5.12. Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee promptly and in any event within 30
days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details
of such Event of Default or Default and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

Securities of such series at the time Outstanding may, subject to Sections 6.06 and 13.02, waive all past Defaults and rescind and annul such acceleration if: 

(i) the rescission of the acceleration with respect to the Securities of such series would not conflict with any judgment or
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and 
 (ii) all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of such series,
other than the non-payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, on the Securities of such series that became due solely because of such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in
Section 6.06. 
 (c) No rescission as provided in this Section 6.02 shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 (d) For all purposes under this Indenture, if a portion of the principal of any Original Issue Discount Securities
shall have been accelerated and declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions hereof, then, from and after such declaration, unless such declaration has been rescinded and annulled, the principal amount of such Original Issue Discount
Securities shall be deemed, for all purposes hereunder, to be such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, and payment of such portion of the principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a
result of such acceleration, together with interest, if any, thereon and all other amounts owing thereunder, shall constitute payment in full of such Original Issue Discount Securities. 

Section 6.03. Other Remedies. If the Company shall fail for a period of 30 days to pay any installment of interest on the
Securities of any series or shall fail to pay the principal of and premium, if any, on any of the Securities of such series when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Maturity, or by call for redemption, by declaration as
authorized by this Indenture, or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company shall pay to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series then Outstanding, the whole amount which then shall have become due
and payable on all the Securities of such series, with interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and (so far as the same may be legally enforceable) on the overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such
series, and all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 10.01(a). 
 In case the Company shall
fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceeding, judicial or otherwise for the collection of the sums so due
and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, and collect the moneys adjudged
or decreed to be payable out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series, wherever situated, in the manner provided by law. Every recovery of judgment in any such action or other proceeding, subject to the
payment to the Trustee of all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 10.01(a), shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities which shall be the subject of such action or
proceeding. All rights of action upon or under any of the Securities or this Indenture may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities and without the production of any thereof at any trial or any proceeding relative
thereto. 

  
 35 

 Section 6.04. Trustee as Attorney-in-Fact. The Trustee is hereby appointed, and each and every Holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have appointed the Trustee, the true and
lawful attorney-in-fact of such Holder, with authority to make or file (whether or not the Company shall be in Default in respect of the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest, on, any of the Securities), in its own name and as trustee of an express trust or otherwise as it shall deem advisable, in any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or to their respective creditors or property, any and all claims, proofs of claim, proofs of debt, petitions, consents, other papers and documents and amendments of any
thereof, as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of the Holders of the Securities allowed in any such proceeding and to collect and receive any moneys or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to execute and deliver any and all other papers and documents and to do and perform any and all other acts and things, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to enforce in any such proceeding any
of the claims of the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder and of any of such Holders in respect of any of the Securities; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor in any such proceeding is hereby authorized, and each and
every Holder of the Securities, by receiving and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed to have authorized any such receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian or debtor, to make any such payment or delivery only to or on the order of the
Trustee, and to pay to the Trustee any amount due it and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 10.01(a); provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or empower the Trustee to consent to
or accept or adopt, on behalf of any Holder of Securities, any plan of reorganization or readjustment affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize or empower the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder
of any Securities in any such proceeding. In no event shall the foregoing attorney-in-fact authorization be construed as imposing any duty or obligation on the Trustee.

 Section 6.05. Priorities. Any moneys or properties collected by the Trustee, or, after an Event of Default, any moneys or
other property distributable in respect of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture, in either case with respect to a series of Securities under this Article VI shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by
the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys or properties and, in the case of the distribution of such moneys or properties on account of the Securities of any series, upon presentation of the Securities of such series, and stamping thereon the
payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid: 
 First: To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee, any
predecessor trustee, the Paying Agent, the transfer agent and the Registrar under Section 10.01(a) and the properly incurred expenses and disbursements of their agents, delegates, attorneys and counsel. 

Second: In case the principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest
ratably on the Securities of such series, in the chronological order of the Stated Maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of
interest at the rate borne by such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto. 
 Third: In case the
principal of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Securities of such series for principal and premium, if any, and interest
with interest on the overdue principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities of such series, and in case such moneys
shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of such principal and premium, if any, and interest without preference or priority of principal and premium, if any,
over interest, or of interest over principal and premium, if any, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series over any other Security of such series, ratably to the aggregate of such
principal and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. 

  
 36 

 Fourth: Any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Company, its successors or assigns,
or to whomsoever may be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be so entitled. 
 Section 6.06. Control by
Securityholders; Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee hereunder, or of exercising any trust or power hereby conferred upon the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series; provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of Section 10.02, the
Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of such series of Securities at the time Outstanding may on behalf of all Holders of the Securities of such series waive any existing or past Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing
Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on (or Additional Amount payable in respect of), the Securities of such series then Outstanding, in which event the consent of all Holders of the
Securities of such series then Outstanding affected thereby is required, or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision which under Section 13.02 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Security of such
series then Outstanding affected thereby. Upon any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; provided that no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.06, said Default or
Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Securities of such series and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing. 

Section 6.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding,
judicial or otherwise, for the execution of any trust hereunder or for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy hereunder, in each case with respect to an Event of Default with respect to such series of Securities, unless (i) such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Events of Default herein specified with respect to such series of Securities, (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
of such series then Outstanding shall have requested the Trustee in writing to take action in respect of the matter complained of, (iii) there shall have been offered to the Trustee pre-funding, security
and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and (iv) the Trustee, for 60 days after receipt of such notification, request and offer of security, pre-funding and/or indemnity, shall have failed to institute any such proceeding and have not received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding a
direction inconsistent with such request; and such notification, request and offer of security, pre-funding and/or indemnity are hereby declared in every such case to be conditions precedent to any such
proceeding by any Holder of any Security of such series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the Holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by his, her, its or their action to enforce any
right hereunder, except in the manner herein provided, and that every proceeding, judicial or otherwise, shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all Holders of the Outstanding Securities of
such series; provided, however, that nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities of such series shall affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on, the Securities of such series to the respective Holders of such Securities at the respective due dates in such Securities stated, or affect or impair the right, which is also absolute and unconditional, of such Holders to institute suit
to enforce the payment thereof. 
 Section 6.08. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture and each Holder of any
Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed that any court may in its discretion require, in any action, suit or proceeding for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any action,
suit or proceeding against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such action, suit or proceeding, and that such court
may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such action, suit or proceeding, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by
such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.08 shall not apply to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee, to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any one or more Holders
of Securities holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any series Outstanding, or to any action, suit or proceeding instituted by any Holder of Securities of any series for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or the interest, on, any of the Securities of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Securities.

 Section 6.09. Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities of any series is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of the Securities of any series to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall
impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Article VI to the Trustee and to the Holders of Securities of any
series, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities of such series, as the case may be. In case the Trustee or any Holder of Securities of any series shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and the proceedings for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason, or shall have been adjudicated adversely to the Trustee or
to such Holder of Securities, then and in every such case, subject to any determinations in such proceedings, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall severally and respectively be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken, except as to any matters so waived or
adjudicated. 
 ARTICLE VII 

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS 

Section 7.01. Evidence of Action of Securityholders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified
percentage or a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities or of any series of Securities may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other
action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the Holders of such specified percentage or majority have joined therein may be evidenced by (a) any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by
Securityholders in person, by an agent or by a proxy appointed in writing, including through an electronic system for tabulating consents operated by the Depository for such series or otherwise (such action becoming effective, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, when such instruments or evidence of electronic consents are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company), or (b) by the record of the Holders of Securities voting in favor
thereof at any meeting of Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Securityholders. 

Section 7.02. Proof of Execution or Holding of Securities. Proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his,
her or its agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner: 

(a) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument may be proved (i) by the certificate of any notary public or
other officer in any jurisdiction who, by the laws thereof, has power to take acknowledgments or proof of deeds to be recorded within such jurisdiction, that the Person who signed such instrument did acknowledge before such notary public or other
officer the execution thereof, or (ii) by the affidavit of a witness of such execution sworn to before any such notary or other officer. Where such execution is by a Person acting in other than his or her individual capacity, such certificate
or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her authority. 

  
 38 

 (b) The ownership of Securities of any series shall be proved by the Register of such
Securities or by a certificate of the Registrar for such series. 
 (c) The record of any Holders’ meeting shall be proved in the
manner provided in Section 8.06. 
 (d) The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this
Section 7.02 as it shall deem appropriate or necessary, so long as the request is a reasonable one. 
 (e) If the Company shall solicit
from the Holders of Securities of any series any action, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders of Securities entitled to take such action, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Any
such record date shall be fixed at the Company’s discretion; provided that such record date shall not be more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of any consent or waiver or more than 30 days prior to the date of the most recent
list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation pursuant to Section 312 of the TIA. If such a record date is fixed, such action may be sought or given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of Securities of
record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders of Securities for the purpose of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities of such series have authorized or agreed or
consented to such action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities of such series shall be computed as of such record date. 

Section 7.03. Persons Deemed Owners. 

(a) The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered in the
Register as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.08) interest, on, such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be
overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. All payments made to any Holder, or upon his, her or its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or
sums paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon such Security. 
 (b) None of the Company, the Trustee,
any Paying Agent or the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing
any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 Section 7.04. Effect of Consents. After an amendment,
supplement, waiver or other action becomes effective as to any series of Securities, a consent to it by a Holder of such series of Securities is a continuing consent conclusive and binding upon such Holder and every subsequent Holder of the same
Securities or portion thereof, and of any Security issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in place thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any such Security. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective
in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

meeting and showing that said notice was mailed as provided in Section 8.02. The record shall show the principal amounts of the Securities voting in favor of or against any resolution. The record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits
of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee. 

Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 

Section 8.07. No Delay of Rights by Meeting. Nothing contained in this Article VIII shall be deemed or construed to authorize

the Trustee or to the Securityholders of such series under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Securities of such series. 

ARTICLE IX

similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; 
 provided, however, that so long as
the Trustee shall be the Registrar, such lists shall not be required to be furnished.

 ARTICLE X 

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 

Section 10.01. Rights of Trustees; Compensation and Indemnity. The Trustee accepts the trusts created by this Indenture upon the
terms and conditions hereof, including the following, to all of which the parties hereto and the Holders from time to time of the Securities agree: 

(a) The Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for all
services rendered by it hereunder (including in any agent capacity in which it acts). The compensation of the Trustee shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall
reimburse the Trustee promptly upon its request for all out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances (including costs of collection) properly incurred or made by
the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture (including, without limitation, the properly incurred expenses and disbursements of its agents, delegates, attorneys and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance caused by its own
negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. 
 The Company also agrees to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee hereunder
for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, or expense incurred without its own negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or
trusts hereunder and the performance of its duties (including in any agent capacity in which it acts), as well as the properly incurred 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 those caused by its own negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall, in so far as reasonably practicable, notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Company shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder to indemnify. 

As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section 10.01(a), the Trustee shall have a lien upon all
property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust by the Trustee to pay principal of and interest on any Securities. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, the obligations of the
Company to compensate and indemnify the Trustee under this Section 10.01(a) shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, any satisfaction and discharge under Article XI, the payment of any Securities and the termination of
this Indenture for any reason. In addition to and without prejudice to its other rights hereunder, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (e) or (f) of Section 6.01
occurs, the expenses and compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws. 

(b) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any duty hereunder either directly or by its agents, delegates and
attorneys and shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, delegate or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder. 

(c) The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for the correctness of the recitals herein or in the Securities (except its
certificates of authentication thereon) contained, all of which are made solely by the Company; and the Trustee shall not be responsible or accountable in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to the validity or execution or sufficiency of this
Indenture or of the Securities (except its certificates of authentication thereon), and the Trustee makes no representation with respect thereto, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture,
authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it is a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to the
qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Securities, or the proceeds of any Securities. 

  
 43 

 (d) (The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and, subject to
Section 10.02, the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee hereunder in reliance thereon. 

(e) The Trustee, subject to Section 10.02, may rely upon the certificate of the Secretary or one of the Assistant Secretaries of the
Company as to the adoption of any Board Resolution or resolution of the stockholders of the Company, and any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by, and whenever in the administration
of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee may rely upon, an Officer’s Certificate of the Company (unless other evidence
in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed). 
 (f) Subject to Section 10.04, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the TIA, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have had if it were not the Trustee or
such agent. 
 (g) Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on or investment of any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. 

(h) Any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof at the request or with the consent of any Person who at the time is the
Holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding in respect of such Security upon all future Holders thereof or of any Security or Securities which may be issued for or in lieu thereof in whole or in part, whether or not such Security shall
have noted thereon the fact that such request or consent had been made or given. 
 (i) The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture or other paper or document (including any document provided
electronically) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, delivered or presented by the proper party or parties. 
 (j) The
Trustee shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of the Securities, pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, unless such
Holders of the Securities shall have offered to the Trustee pre-funding, security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it therein or thereby.

 (k) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within its discretion or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (l) The Trustee shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or be charged with notice of any Default or Event of Default with respect to any Securities unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge by way of written notice thereof or unless the Holders of not less
than 25% of the Outstanding Securities notify the Trustee thereof by a written notice to the Trustee that is received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and such notice references such Securities and this Indenture. 

  
 44 

 (m) The 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, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of Indebtedness or other paper or document; provided, however, that the
Trustee, may, but shall not be required to, make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

(n) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be secured,
pre-funded and/or indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder. 

(o) In no event shall the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the transfer agent or the Registrar, be responsible or liable for special, indirect,
punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), whether or not foreseeable and irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage and
regardless of the form of action. 
 (p) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the
names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any
person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 
 (q) The permissive right of the
Trustee to take or refrain from taking action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty. 
 (r) The Trustee may refrain from taking any
action in any jurisdiction if taking such action in that jurisdiction would, in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee based on written legal advice received from qualified legal counsel in the relevant jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that
jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, the State of New York. Furthermore, the Trustee may refrain from taking such action if, in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee based on such legal advice, it would otherwise render the Trustee liable to
any person in that jurisdiction or the State of New York and there has not been offered to the Trustee pre-funding, security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it against the liabilities to be incurred therein
or thereby, or the Trustee would not have the legal capacity to take such action in that jurisdiction by virtue of applicable law in that jurisdiction or the State of New York or by virtue of a written order of any court or other competent authority
in that jurisdiction that the Trustee does not have such legal capacity. 
 Section 10.02. Duties of Trustee. 

(a) If one or more of the Events of Default specified in Section 6.01 with respect to the Securities of any series shall have happened,
then, during the continuance thereof, the Trustee shall, with respect to such Securities, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and shall use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (b) Unless and until an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01 with respect to the Securities of any series shall have happened which at the time is continuing, 

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties with respect to the Securities of such series as are
specifically set out in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee, whose duties and obligations shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture; and 

  
 45 

 (ii) the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements
and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, upon certificates and opinions furnished to it pursuant to the express provisions of this Indenture; provided that, in the case of
any such certificates or opinions which, by the provisions of this Indenture, are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein). 

(c) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall be construed as relieving the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action,
negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that, anything in this Indenture contained to the contrary notwithstanding, 

(i) the Trustee shall not be liable to any Holder of Securities or to any other Person for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable to any Holder of Securities or to any other Person with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance with the direction of Securityholders given as provided in Section 6.06, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to it or exercising any
trust or power conferred upon it by this Indenture; 
 (iii) none of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the
Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate security, pre-funding and/or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; and 

(iv) this subsection (c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (b) of this
Section 10.02. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 10.02. 

Section 10.03. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence thereof and if known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall give
to the Holders of the Securities of a series notice of each Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series known to the Trustee, by transmitting such notice to Holders at their addresses as the same shall then appear on
the Register, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice (the term “Default” being hereby defined to be the events specified in Section 6.01, which are, or after notice or lapse of time
or both would become, Events of Default as defined in said Section).

The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the TIA; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Section 310(b)(i) of the TIA any indenture or indentures under which other securities or
certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are Outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the TIA are met. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting
interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the TIA, the 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
Indenture. If Section 310(b) of the TIA is amended any time after the date of this Indenture to change the circumstances under which a Trustee shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to the Securities of any series or
to change any of the definitions in connection therewith, this Section 10.04 shall be automatically amended to incorporate such changes. 

Section 10.05. Resignation and Notice; Removal. The Trustee, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may at any time resign
and be discharged of the trusts hereby created with respect to any one or more or all series of Securities by giving to the Company notice in writing. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Trustee and the acceptance
of such appointment by such successor Trustee. Any Trustee hereunder may be removed with respect to any series of Securities at any time by the filing with such Trustee and the delivery to the Company of an instrument or instruments in writing
signed by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, specifying such removal and the date when it shall become effective. 

If at any time: 

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the TIA after written request therefor
by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 10.04 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of
its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by written notice to the Trustee may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all
Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 315(e) of the TIA, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

Upon its resignation or removal, any Trustee shall be entitled to the payment of reasonable compensation for the services rendered hereunder
by such Trustee and to the payment of all properly incurred expenses incurred hereunder and all moneys then due to it hereunder. The Trustee’s rights to indemnification and its lien provided in Section 10.01(a) shall survive its
resignation or removal, the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the termination of this Indenture for any reason. 

  
 47 

 Section 10.06. Successor Trustee by Appointment. 

(a) In case at any time the Trustee shall resign, or shall be removed (unless the Trustee shall be removed as provided in Section 10.04
(b), in which event the vacancy shall be filled as provided in Section 10.04(b)), or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or if any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation with respect to the Securities of one or more series, a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any series) may be appointed by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that or those series then Outstanding, by an instrument or instruments in writing signed in duplicate by such Holders and
filed, one original thereof with the Company and the other with the successor Trustee; provided that, until a successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Holders of Securities of that or those series as herein authorized, the
Company, or, in case all or substantially all the assets of the Company shall be in the possession of one or more custodians or receivers lawfully appointed, or of trustees in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings (including a trustee or trustees
appointed under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code), or of assignees for the benefit of creditors, such 
 receivers, custodians, trustees or assignees,
as the case may be, by an instrument in writing, shall appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.04 and 10.05, upon the appointment as above provided of a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series shall cease to be Trustee hereunder. After any such appointment other than by the Holders of Securities of that or those series, the
Person making such appointment shall forthwith cause notice thereof to be mailed to the Holders of Securities of such series at their addresses as the same shall then appear on the Register but any successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
such series so appointed shall, immediately and without further act, be superseded by a successor Trustee appointed by the Holders of Securities of such series in the manner above prescribed, if such appointment be made prior to the expiration of
one year from the date of the mailing of such notice by the Company, or by such receivers, trustees or assignees. 
 (b) If any Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more series shall resign or be removed and a successor Trustee shall not have been appointed by the Company or by the Holders of the Securities of such series within 30 days of any notice of resignation or removal
or, if any successor Trustee so appointed shall not have accepted its appointment within 30 days after such appointment shall have been made, the resigning Trustee at the expense of the Company may appoint a successor Trustee or apply to any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. If in any other case a successor Trustee shall not be appointed pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.06 within three months after such appointment might
have been made hereunder, the Holder of any Security of the applicable series or any retiring Trustee at the expense of the Company may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, in any
such case, after such notice, if any, as such court may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee. 
 (c) Any successor Trustee
appointed hereunder with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor Trustee and to the Company, or to the receivers, trustees, assignees or court appointing it, as the case may be, an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations with respect
to such series of such predecessor Trustee with like effect as if originally named as Trustee hereunder, and such predecessor Trustee, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then unpaid, shall thereupon become obligated to pay over, and such
successor Trustee shall be entitled to receive, all moneys and properties held by such predecessor Trustee as Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien provided for in Section 10.01(a). Nevertheless, on the written request of the
Company or of the successor Trustee or of the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding, such predecessor Trustee, upon payment of its said charges and disbursements, shall execute and
deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee upon the trusts herein expressed all the rights, powers and trusts of such predecessor Trustee and shall assign, transfer and deliver to the successor Trustee all moneys and properties
held by such predecessor Trustee, subject nevertheless to its lien provided for in Section 10.01(a); and, upon request of any such successor Trustee and the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments in writing
for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more (but not all) series, then, the predecessor Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to such Securities shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or
in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or
trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee. 

  
 48 

 Section 10.07. Successor Trustee by Merger. Any Person into which the Trustee or
any successor to it in the trusts created by this Indenture shall be merged or converted, or any Person with which it or any successor to it shall be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee or any such successor to it shall be a party, or any Person to which the Trustee or any successor to it shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor Trustee
under this Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article X. In case at the time
such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture with respect to one or more series of Securities, any of such Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any successor
to such Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities; and in case at that time
any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to such Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor Trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such
certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of
any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 

Section 10.08. Right to Rely on Officer’s Certificate. Subject to Section 10.02, and subject to the
provisions of Section 15.01 with respect to the certificates required thereby, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved
and established by an Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto delivered to the Trustee, and such Officer’s Certificate, in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee
for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 
 Section 10.09.
Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities, and the Trustee shall give written notice of such
appointment to the Company and all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent. Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and
obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. 

  
 49 

 Each Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
and in good standing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than US$50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Article X, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Article X, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article X. 

Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent 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 Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an
Authenticating Agent, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this Article X, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.09, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give written notice of such appointment to all
Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 10.09. 

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this
Section 10.09. 
 Section 10.10. Communications by Securityholders with Other Securityholders. Holders of Securities may
communicate pursuant to Section 312(b) of the TIA with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Securities. The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and anyone else shall have the protection of
Section 312(c) of the TIA with respect to such communications. 
 ARTICLE XI 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE 

Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any series of Securities
except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for Securities of such series. Defeasance provisions, if any, for Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency may be specified pursuant to Section 3.01. 

Section 11.02. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

(a) This Indenture, with respect to the Securities of any series (if all series issued under this Indenture are not to be affected), shall
cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of such Securities herein expressly provided for and rights to receive payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, such
Securities) when: 

  
 50 

 (i) either: 

(A) all Securities of such series that have been authenticated, except (x) lost, stolen or destroyed Securities that have
been replaced or paid and (y) Securities for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Paying Agent for cancellation; or 

(B) all Securities of such series that have not been delivered to the Paying Agent for cancellation have become due and payable
by reason of the sending of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the
Holders of such series of Securities, cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S. Dollars and U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts as will be sufficient (in the case of a deposit not entirely in cash, in
the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants), without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire amount Outstanding on such Securities not
delivered to the Paying Agent for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest, to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 

(ii) no Default or Event of Default under this Indenture has occurred and is continuing with respect to Securities of such
series on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 

(iii) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture with respect to all Securities of
such series; and 
 (iv) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the
deposited money toward the payment of the Securities of such series at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be. 
 (b)
The Company must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an opinion of Legal Counsel (which may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been
satisfied. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (A)(y) of clause (i) of Section 11.02(a), the obligations of the Trustee under Section 11.07 and Section 5.03(e) shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

Section 11.03. Defeasance upon Deposit of Moneys or U.S. Government Obligations. 

(a) The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 11.03(b) or Section 11.03(c) applied to
all Outstanding Securities of any series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Section 11.03. 
 (b) Upon the
Company’s exercise under Section 11.03(a) of the option applicable to this Section 11.03(b), the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 11.03(d), be deemed to have been Discharged
from its obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities of such series on the date such conditions are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, “Legal Defeasance” means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and Discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Securities of such series then Outstanding and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture, except for the
following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (i) the rights of Holders of
the Securities of such series then Outstanding to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium on such Securities when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 11.03(d); 

  
 51 

 (ii) the Company’s obligations concerning issuing temporary Securities,
registration of Securities, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; 

(iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection
therewith; and 
 (iv) this Section 11.03(b) and Section 11.03(c) with respect to the Securities of such
series. 
 Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Securities of such series may not be
accelerated because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article XI, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 11.03(b) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 11.03(c). 

“Discharged” means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by, and
obligations under, the Securities of a series and to have satisfied all the obligations under this Indenture relating to the Securities of such series (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
the same), except (A) the rights of Holders of Securities of such series to receive, from the trust fund described in clause (i) of 11.03(d), payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on such Securities when such
payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to Securities of such series under Sections 3.04, 3.06, 3.07, 5.02, 5.03, 11.06 and 11.07 and (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder. 
 (c) Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 11.03(a) of the option applicable to this Section 11.03(c),
the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 11.03(d), be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Section 5.04, Section 5.08 and as provided pursuant to
Section 3.01(z), on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 11.03(d) are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, “Covenant Defeasance” means that, with respect to this
Indenture and the Securities of such series then Outstanding, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason
of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 11.03(a) of the option applicable to this
Section 11.03(c), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 11.03(d), Sections 6.01(c), and 6.01(d) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance), in each
case, shall not constitute Events of Default. 
 (d) The following shall be the conditions to the exercise of either the Legal Defeasance
option under Section 11.03(b) or the Covenant Defeasance option under Section 11.03(c): 
 (i) the Company
must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of all Securities subject to Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, cash in U.S. Dollars, U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash in U.S. Dollars and
U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts as will be sufficient (in the case of a deposit not entirely in cash, in the opinion of an internationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants) to pay the
principal of, or interest and premium on such Securities that are then Outstanding on the applicable Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether such Securities are being defeased to maturity or to a
particular Redemption Date; 

  
 52 

 (ii) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company must deliver to the
Trustee an opinion of Legal Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this Indenture,
there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of Legal Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the Securities of such series then Outstanding will not
recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an opinion
of Legal Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the Securities of such series then Outstanding will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and
will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(iv) no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series must have occurred and be continuing on the
date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 

(v) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by it with the
intent of preferring the Holders of Securities over the Company’s other creditors with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding its creditors or others; and 

(vi) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an opinion of Legal Counsel, each stating that
all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 11.04.
Repayment to Company. The Trustee and any Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company (or to its designee) upon Company Order any excess moneys or U.S. Government Obligations held by them at any time, including any such moneys or U.S.
Government Obligations held by the Trustee under any escrow trust agreement entered into pursuant to Section 11.06. The provisions of the last paragraph of Section 5.03 shall apply to any moneys or U.S. Government Obligations held by the
Trustee or any Paying Agent under this Article that remains unclaimed for two years after the Maturity of any series of Securities for which moneys or U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited pursuant to Section 11.03. 

Section 11.05. Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations. The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax,
fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the deposited U.S. Government Obligations or the principal or interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations other than any such tax, fee or charge which by law is for the account of the
Holders of the Outstanding Securities being defeased. 
 Section 11.06. Deposits to Be Held in Escrow. Any deposits with the
Trustee referred to in Section 11.03 above shall be irrevocable (except to the extent provided in Sections 11.04 and 11.07) and shall be made under the terms of an escrow trust agreement. As contemplated under this Article XI, if any
Outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed prior to their Stated Maturity, pursuant to any optional redemption provisions, the applicable escrow trust agreement shall provide therefor and the Company shall make such arrangements as are
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company. 

  
 53 

 If Securities of a series with respect to which such deposits are made may be subject to
later redemption at the option of the Company, the applicable escrow trust agreement may, at the option of the Company, provide therefor. In the case of an optional redemption in whole or in part, such agreement shall require the Company to deposit
with the Trustee on or before the date notice of redemption is given funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Securities to be redeemed together with all unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. Upon such deposit of funds, the
Trustee shall pay or deliver over to the Company as excess funds pursuant to Section 11.04 all funds or obligations then held under such agreement and allocable to the Securities to be redeemed. 

Section 11.07. Application of Trust Money. 

(a) Neither the Trustee nor any other paying agent shall be required to pay interest on any moneys deposited pursuant to the provisions of
this Indenture, except such as it shall agree with the Company in writing to pay thereon. Any moneys so deposited for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Securities of any series and remaining unclaimed
for two years after the date of the maturity of the Securities of such series or the date fixed for the redemption of all the Securities of such series at the time Outstanding, as the case may be, shall be applied as provided in
Section 5.03(e). 
 (b) Subject to the provisions of clause (a) above, any moneys or U.S. Government Obligations which at any
time shall be deposited by the Company or on its behalf with the Trustee or any other paying agent for the purpose of paying the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any of the Securities shall be and are hereby assigned, transferred and
set over to the Trustee or such other paying agent in trust for the respective Holders of the Securities for the purpose for which such moneys or U.S. Government Obligations shall have been deposited; provided that such moneys or U.S.
Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Section 11.08. Deposits of Non-U.S. Currencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, if the Securities of any series are payable in a Currency other than U.S. Dollars, the Currency or the nature of the government
obligations to be deposited with the Trustee under the foregoing provisions of this Article XI shall be as set forth in the Officer’s Certificate or established in the supplemental indenture under which the Securities of such series are
issued. 
 ARTICLE XII 

IMMUNITY OF CERTAIN PERSONS 

Section 12.01. No Personal Liability. No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, or the premium, if any, or
interest, on, any Security or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof or of the Indebtedness represented thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer,
employee or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor thereto, either directly or through the Company or any successor thereto, whether by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or
by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Indenture and the Securities are solely corporate obligations, and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred
by, any incorporator, stockholder, officer, employee or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor thereto, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, because of the incurring of the
Indebtedness hereby authorized or under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants, promises or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities, or to be implied herefrom or therefrom, and that all liability, if any, of
that character against every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, employee and director is, by the acceptance of the Securities and as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the
Securities expressly waived and released. 

  
 54 

 ARTICLE XIII

the Company;

(i) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of such series of Securities as permitted
by this Indenture, including, but not limited to, facilitating the issuance and administration of any series of the Securities or, if incurred in compliance with this Indenture, additional Securities; provided, however, that
(i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in such series of the Securities being transferred in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and
adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Securities;

 (j) to make any amendment to this Indenture necessary to qualify this Indenture under the
Trust Indenture Act;

Section 13.03, the Trustee is authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make the further agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer,
assignment, mortgage or pledge of any property or assets thereunder. 
 Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this
Section 13.01 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 13.02. 

Section 13.02. With Consent of Securityholders; Limitations. 

(a) With the consent of the Holders (evidenced as provided in Article VII) of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture voting separately, the Company and the Trustee may, from time to time and at any time, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any provisions of this Indenture or of modifying or changing in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to be affected; provided, however, that no
such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of each such series affected thereby, 

(i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of and premium, if any, or any installment of interest on any Security; 

(ii) reduce the principal amount of, payments of interest, on or stated time for payment of interest, on any Security; 

(iii) change any obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; 

(iv) change the Currency in which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on such Security is denominated
or payable; 
 (v) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment due on or with respect to any
Security; 
 (vi) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose
Holders is required for any supplemental indenture; 

  
 56 

 (vii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain Defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture; 

(viii) modify any of the provisions of this Section 13.02, Section 5.11, Section 6.06, except to increase any
such percentage or provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause shall not be
deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to the “Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section 13.02 and Section 5.11, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the
requirements of Sections 10.06 and 13.01(g); 
 (ix) amend, change or modify any provision of this Indenture or the
related definitions affecting the ranking of any series of Securities in a manner which adversely affects the Holders of such Securities; or 

(x) reduce the amount of the premium payable upon the redemption or repurchase of any Security or change the time at which any
Security may be redeemed or repurchased as described in Section 4.07. 
 (b) A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other
provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 (c) It shall
not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 13.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. Any such
consent of Securityholders given in connection with a tender of such Securityholders’ Securities of such series will not be rendered invalid by such tender. 

(d) The Company may set a record date pursuant to Section 7.02(e) for purposes of determining the identity of the Holders of each
series of Securities entitled to give a written consent or waive compliance by the Company as authorized or permitted by this Section 13.02. 

(e) After the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.02,
the Company shall mail a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the Holders of Securities at their addresses as the same shall then appear in the Register. Any failure of the Company to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 

Section 13.03. Trustee Protected. Upon the request of the Company, accompanied by the Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 15.01 stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture to be entered into pursuant to Section 13.01 or Section 13.02 is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee of consent of the Holders if the supplemental indenture is to be executed pursuant to Section 13.02, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of said supplemental indenture unless said supplemental
indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into said supplemental indenture. The Trustee shall be
fully protected in relying upon such Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel.

of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIII, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the respective rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of all of the Securities or of the Securities of any series affected, as the case may be, shall thereafter be determined,
exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for
any and all purposes. 
 Section 13.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. Securities of any series authenticated and
delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article may bear a notation in the form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the
Trustee shall so determine, new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for the Securities then Outstanding in equal aggregate principal amounts, and such exchange shall be made without cost to the Holders of the Securities.

Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the
opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such document is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating

not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and (iv) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with. 

  
 58 

 (c) Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar
as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the
matters upon which his or her certificate, statement or opinion is based are erroneous. Any certificate, statement or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate, statement or opinion of, or
representations by, governmental or other officials, customary for opinions of the type required, or an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless
such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate, statement or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 

(d) Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Company or of counsel to the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to

(f) Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or
other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Section 15.02. Trust
Indenture Act Controls. If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by, or with a provision included in this Indenture which is required to be included in this Indenture by any
of the provisions of Sections 310 to 318, inclusive, of, the TIA, such imposed duties or incorporated provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the TIA, which may be so modified or
excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or excluded, as the case may be. 

Section 15.03. Notices to the Company and Trustee. Any notice or demand authorized or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon,
given or furnished to, or filed with, the Company or the Trustee shall be sufficiently made, given, furnished or filed for all purposes if it shall be mailed, by regular mail or overnight courier, delivered or faxed to: 

(a) the Company, at Burning Rock Biotech Limited, 601, 6/F, Building 3, Standard Industrial Unit 2, No.7 Luoxuan 4th Road, International Bio
Island, Guangzhou, the People’s Republic of China, Telephone No.: +86 020-3403 7871, Attn: Leo Li, or at such other address or facsimile number as may have been furnished in writing to the Trustee by the
Company. 
 (b) the Trustee, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee with a copy to the Specified Corporate Trust Office. 

  
 59 

 Any such notice, demand or other document shall be in the English language. Anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, no such notice or demand shall be effective as to the Trustee unless it is actually received by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and at its Specified Corporate Trust Office. 

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, pdf, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to give
such instructions or directions and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to
give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method), the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be
liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction.
The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or
interception and misuse by third parties. 
 Section 15.04. Notices to Securityholders; Waiver. Any notice required or permitted
to be given to Securityholders shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided), if to Holders, if given in writing by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such Holders at their addresses as the same shall appear on the
Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Security, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository for such Security (or its designee),
pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depository, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice by this Indenture. 

(a) In the event of suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give notice by mail, then
such notification as shall be given with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice for every purpose hereunder. 
 (b)
Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice
by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance on such waiver. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such
notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given. In any case where notice to Holders is given by publication, any defect in any notice so published as to any particular Holder shall not affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders, and any notice that is
published in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given. 
 Section 15.05. Legal Holiday.
Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, in any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Maturity or other scheduled date of payment of any Security of any series shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment for
the Securities of that series, then payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest, need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and
effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Maturity, as the case may be, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Maturity, as the case may be,
to such Business Day if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day. 

  
 60 

 Section 15.06. Judgment Currency. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the
obligations of the Company to any Holder under this Indenture or the Securities of any series, as the case may be, shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than U.S. Dollars, be discharged
only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in the Judgment Currency, such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase the U.S. Dollars with the Judgment Currency. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if the amount of U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, in U.S.
Dollars, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to pay the difference, and if the amount of U.S. Dollars so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder or the Trustee, as
the case may be, agrees to pay to or for the account of the Company such excess; provided that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a Default by the Company in its obligations under this Indenture or
such series of Securities has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations. In the event the Trustee is required or requested to make such purchases of U.S. Dollars with the Judgment
Currency, the Trustee will in good faith select a recognized banking institution in the City of New York through which the Trustee will purchase the U.S. Dollars with the Judgment Currency; provided that the Trustee will not be liable for any
losses or shortfalls in amounts so paid as a result of the foreign exchange rate applied by such banking institution to such purchases of the U.S. Dollars with the Judgment Currency in accordance with normal banking procedures. 

Section 15.07. Effects of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of
Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 Section 15.08. Successors and Assigns. All
covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the parties hereto shall bind their respective successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of their permitted successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

Section 15.09. Severability. If any provision hereof shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law,
then the remaining provisions hereof shall be construed as though such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision were not contained herein. 

Section 15.10. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture expressed and nothing that may be implied from any of the
provisions hereof is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to give to, any Person other than the parties hereto and their successors and the Holders of the Securities any benefit or any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and
their successors and of the Holders of the Securities. 
 Section 15.11. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. 

Section 15.12. Governing Law; Waiver of Trial by Jury. This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES. 

Section 15.13. Submission to Jurisdiction. The Company irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or New York State court located in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture or
the Securities. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to the Company’s agent, [                    ],
located at [                    ], shall be effective service of process against the Company for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such
court. The Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. A final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction the Company is or may be subject, by
suit upon judgment. The Company further agrees that nothing herein shall affect any Holder’s right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or bring a suit action or proceeding (including a proceeding for enforcement of
a judgment) in any other court or jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. 

  
 61 

 Section 15.14. Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that the Company or any of its
properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to each of the Company, any right of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from the giving of
any relief in any such legal action, suit or proceeding, from setoff or counterclaim, from the jurisdiction of any Cayman Islands, PRC, New York state or U.S. federal court, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment, from
attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any such court in which proceedings may at any time be commenced,
with respect to the obligations and liabilities of the Company or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Indenture, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives or will waive such right to the extent
permitted by applicable law, and agree not to plead or claim, any such immunity and consent to such relief and enforcement. 

Section 15.15. Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance
of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or
natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with
accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 
 Section 15.16.
No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement
may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

BURNING ROCK BIOTECH LIMITED 

[    % Note Due 20    ][Floating Rate Notes Due 20    ] 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Company of the series designated as the [“    %
Note Due 20    ”][“Floating Rate Notes Due 20    ”](the “Notes”), all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of
                    , 20[...](the “Base Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by and between the Company and
[                    ], as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), as supplemented by the
                     Supplemental Indenture, dated as of
                    , 20     (the “Supplemental Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by and between the
Company and the Trustee. The Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the                      Supplemental Indenture is referred to herein as
the “Indenture”. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Indenture. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the
provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal
amount of this [Note at a rate of     % per annum][at the applicable rate as described below determined by the calculation agent (or its successor) for each Interest Period]. The date from which interest shall accrue on the Notes
shall be [                    ], or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or provided for. [The applicable rate with
respect to a particular Interest Period will be a rate equal to [                    ]. Promptly upon determination, the calculation agent will
inform the Company of the applicable rate for the next Interest Period.] The Company will pay interest [semi-annually][quarterly] in arrears on
[                    ] of each year, beginning
[                    ] ,20    . In any case in which an Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Maturity or other payment date is
not a Business Day as defined in the Indenture at a Place of Payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day. Any payment made on such Business Day will have the same force and effect as if made on
the date on which the payment is due, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. Interest shall be computed on the basis of [a 360-day year of twelve

[All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for the Notes will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred
thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) would be rounded to 3.87655% (or .0387655)), and all U.S. Dollar amounts
will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. Each calculation of the interest rate on the Notes by the calculation agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and
