(2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions
contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 
  

(3) a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is
necessary to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and 
  

(4) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

  
 Section 103. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee.

  
 In any case where several matters are required to
be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 

 
 Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Corporation
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 such Officer’s Certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, an officer or officers of the Corporation stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Corporation, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know,
that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 
  

 7 

 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. 
  

Whenever, subsequent to the receipt by the Trustee of any Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate, Opinion of Counsel or other
document or instrument, a clerical, typographical or other inadvertent or unintentional error or omission shall be discovered therein, a new document or instrument may be substituted therefor in corrected form with the same force and effect as if
originally filed in the corrected form and, irrespective of the date or dates of the actual execution and/or delivery thereof, such substitute document or instrument shall be deemed to have been executed and/or delivered as of the date or dates
required with respect to the document or instrument for which it is substituted. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, if any such corrective document or instrument indicates that action has been taken by or at the request of
the Corporation which could not have been taken had the original document or instrument not contained such error or omission, the action so taken shall not be invalidated or otherwise rendered ineffective but shall be and remain in full force and
effect, except to the extent that such action was a result of willful misconduct or bad faith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or instrument shall nevertheless be
the valid obligations of the Corporation entitled to the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding Securities, except as aforesaid. 

 
 Section 104. Acts of Holders; Record Dates. 

 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent
duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Corporation. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a
writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Corporation, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

 
 The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or
writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than the signer’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of the signer’s
authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient; and the Trustee may in any instance
require further proof to any of the matters referred to in this Section. 
  

 8 

 The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 

 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Corporation in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
  

 The Corporation may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of
any series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series;
provided that the Corporation may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take or revoke the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain
Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such
record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Corporation from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set
shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the
relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Corporation, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable
Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. 
  

The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of any series
entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or
(iv) any direction referred to in Section 512, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no
other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction or to revoke the same, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder
unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a
new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in
this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite 
  

 9 

 
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the
Corporation’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be sent to the Corporation in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set
forth in Section 106. 
  
 With respect to any
record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided
that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior
to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such
record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable
record date. 
  
 Without limiting the foregoing, a
Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant
to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. 
  

Section 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Corporation. 

 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
  

(1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Corporation shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
furnished or filed in writing (which may be made via facsimile) to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or 
  

(2) the Corporation by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise
herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Corporation addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument, Attention: Treasurer, or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Corporation. 
  

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions from the Corporation 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 on
behalf of the Corporation and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons on which such incumbency certificate the Trustee may conclusively rely until such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced by the Corporation. The
Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs 
  

 10 

 
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 Corporation agrees to assume all risks arising from its use of such unsecured 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 of interception and misuse of information by third parties. 
  

Section 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver. 
  

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date
(if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such
notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service
or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

 
 Section 107. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

 
 If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a
provision of the Trust Indenture Act which is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act
which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. 
  

Section 108. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 

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

Section 109. Successors and Assigns. 
  

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Corporation shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

  

 11 

 Section 110. Separability Clause. 

 
 In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
  

 Section 111. Benefits of Indenture. 
  

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series, nothing in this Indenture or in the
Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

 
 Section 112. Governing Law. 

 
 This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof. 
  

Section 113. Legal Holidays. 
  

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series, in any case where any Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that
such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, unless that Business Day is in a different calendar year,
in which case the payment will be made on the preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity. 

 
 Section 114. No Security Interest Created. 

 
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities expressed or
implied, shall be construed to constitute a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code or similar legislation, as now or hereafter enacted and in effect in any jurisdiction where property of the Corporation or its subsidiaries is located.

  
 Section 115. Waiver of Jury Trial. 

 
 EACH OF THE CORPORATION AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THEM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

 

 12 

 Section 116. 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 affecting the banking industry generally; 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.

and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities

 Edison International, a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of the State of California (herein called the “Corporation,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
                    , or registered assigns, the principal sum of              Dollars on

of interest, which is overdue shall bear interest at the rate of             % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), from the dates such
amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment, and such interest shall be payable on demand]. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be
paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the
[                    ] (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so
punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any

interest prior to Maturity, insert - The principal of this Security shall not bear interest except in the case of a default in payment of principal upon acceleration, upon redemption or at Stated Maturity and in such case the overdue principal and
any overdue premium shall bear interest at the rate of             % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), from the dates such amounts
are due until they are paid or made available for payment. Interest on any overdue principal or premium shall be payable on demand. Any such interest on overdue principal or premium which is not paid on demand shall bear interest at the rate of
            % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest on interest shall be legally enforceable), from the date of such demand until the amount so demanded is paid or made
available for payment. Interest on any overdue interest shall be payable on demand.]

writing to the Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto].

             of [if applicable, insert - not less than $             (“mandatory sinking fund”) and not more
than] $             aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series. Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the Corporation otherwise than through [if applicable, insert
- mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [if applicable, insert - mandatory] sinking fund payments otherwise required to be made [if applicable, insert - , in the inverse order in which they become due].] 

 
 [If the Security is subject to redemption of any kind, insert
- In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.] 

 
 [If applicable, insert - The Indenture contains provisions

interest (in each case to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Corporation’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and premium and interest, if any, on the Securities of this

proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default
as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such
request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
  

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Corporation in any place where the principal of and any
premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered
form without coupons in denominations of [$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof]. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like

  

 18 

 
aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
  

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Corporation, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 
  
 All terms used in this Security which
are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
  

The Indenture and the Securities issued thereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

(19) any addition to or change in the covenants set forth in Article Ten which applies to Securities of the series; and

  
 (20) any other terms of the

Officer’s Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. 
  

If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such
action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate setting forth the terms or the manner of determining the terms of the
series. 
  
 With respect to Securities of a series
offered in a Periodic Offering, the Board Resolution (or action taken pursuant thereto), Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture referred to above may provide general terms or parameters for Securities of such series and provide either
that the specific terms of particular Securities of such series shall be specified in a Corporation Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Corporation in accordance with other procedures specified in a Corporation Order as contemplated
by the third paragraph of Section 303. 
  

 22 

 Notwithstanding Section 301(2) herein and unless otherwise expressly provided with
respect to a series of Securities, the aggregate principal amount of a series of Securities may be increased and additional Securities of such series may be issued up to the maximum aggregate principal amount authorized with respect to such series
as increased. 
  
 Section 302. Denominations. 

 
 The Securities of each series shall be issuable only in fully
registered form without coupons and only in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 301. In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series
shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. 
  

Section 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

 
 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Corporation
by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President, a Vice President or the Treasurer, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon (which may be by facsimile) attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The
signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
  

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

 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and
delivery of this Indenture, the Corporation may deliver the Securities of any series executed by the Corporation to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Corporation Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the
Trustee in accordance with the Corporation Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201
and 301, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating, 
  
 (1)
if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 

 
 (2) if the terms of such Securities have
been, or in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, will be, established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been, or in the case of Securities of a series offered in a
Periodic Offering, will be, established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, subject, in the case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel; and 

 

 23 

 (3) that such Securities, when issued and executed by the Corporation and
when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Corporation enforceable in accordance with their terms,
subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 

 
 If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee
shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which
is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
  
 Each
Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
  

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence,
that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Corporation, and the Corporation shall
deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, 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. 
  
 Section 304. Temporary
Securities. 
  
 Pending the preparation of
definitive Securities of any series, the Corporation may execute, and upon Corporation Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
  

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Corporation will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at
the office or agency of the Corporation in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities

  

 24 

 
of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. 

 
 Section 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

  
 The Corporation shall cause to be kept at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Corporation in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Corporation shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose
of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
  

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of a series at the office or agency of the Corporation in a Place of Payment
for that series, the Corporation 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. 
  
 At the option of
the Holder, the 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 Corporation 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 Corporation, 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 Corporation or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
  

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Corporation may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1106 not involving any transfer.

  
 If the Securities of any series (or of any series
and specified tenor) are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any 
  

 25 

 
such Securities selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption
in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
  

The provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) below shall apply only to Global Securities: 

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

(2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for
Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary has notified the
Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security and a successor Depositary has not been appointed by the Corporation within 90 days of receipt by the Corporation of such notification, (B) if at any
time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as such Depositary and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Corporation
within 90 days after it became aware of such cessation, or (C) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Corporation may at any time in its sole discretion determine that Securities issued in the form of a Global Security shall no longer be represented in whole or in part by such Global Security, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a
Corporation Order therefor, shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Security. 
  

(3) Subject to Clause (2) above, any exchange or transfer of a Global Security for other Securities may be made in
whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for or upon transfer of a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct. 

 
 (4) Every Security authenticated and
delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 304, 306, 906 or 1106 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the
form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. 

 

 26 

 Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the
Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

 
 If there shall be delivered to the Corporation and the
Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence
of notice to the Corporation or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Corporation shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new
Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
  

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Corporation in its
discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
  

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Corporation may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax,
fee, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its agents and counsel) connected therewith. 

 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this
Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Corporation, 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. 
  

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

Section 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
  

 Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, 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 that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest. 
  
 Except as
otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, any interest on any Security of any series which 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 Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Corporation, at its election in
each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
  

 27 

 (1) The Corporation may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to
the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner. The Corporation shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Corporation 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 Corporation of such Special
Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Corporation, 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 in the manner set
forth in Section 106, 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 so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

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

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

 
 Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. 

 
 Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of
transfer, the Corporation, the Trustee and any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium
and (subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Corporation, the Trustee nor any agent of the Corporation or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
  

 28 

 None of the Corporation, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have
any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interest of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests. 
  
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the Corporation, the Trustee, or any Agent of the Corporation or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any
depositary, as a Holder, with respect to such Global Security or impair, as between such depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such
depositary as Holder of such Global Security. 
  
 Section 309.
Cancellation. 
  
 All Securities surrendered
for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by it. The
Corporation may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Corporation may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other
Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Corporation has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in its customary manner or as directed
by a Corporation Order; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to destroy such canceled Securities. 
  

Section 310. Computation of Interest. 
  

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for the 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 311. CUSIP Numbers. 
  

 The Corporation in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the
Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities
or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that 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.

 Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

 
 This Indenture shall upon Corporation Request cease to be of
further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction

Corporation or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation,
for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Corporation acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee
may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 
  

ARTICLE V. 
  

REMEDIES 
  

Section 501. Events of Default. 
  

“Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of any series, means any one of the following
events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body), unless it is inapplicable to a particular series or is specifically deleted or modified in the Board Resolution (or action taken pursuant thereto), Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture under
which such series of Securities is issued or has been deleted or modified in an indenture supplemental hereto: 
  

(1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and
continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that if the Corporation is permitted by the terms of the Securities of such series to defer the payment in question, the date on which such payment is due and
payable shall be the date on which the Corporation is required to make payment following such deferral, if such deferral has been elected pursuant to the terms of the Securities; or 

 

 31 

 (2) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any
Security of that series at its Maturity; or 
  

(3) default in the making of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series, and
continuance of such default for a period of 60 days; or 
  

(4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant of the Corporation in this Indenture (other than a covenant a
default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of series of Securities other than that series), and continuance of such
default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Corporation by the Trustee or to the Corporation and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 33% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, unless the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Holders of a
principal amount of Securities of such series not less than the principal amount of Securities the Holders of which gave such notice, as the case may be, shall agree in writing to an extension of such period prior to its expiration; provided,
however, that the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Holders of such principal amount of Securities of such series, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have agreed to an extension of such period if corrective action is initiated by the
Corporation within such period and is being diligently pursued; or 
  

(5) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the
Corporation in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Corporation a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as
properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Corporation under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator
or other similar official of the Corporation or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed
and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 
  

(6) the commencement by the Corporation of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Corporation in an
involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition
or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, sequestrator or other 
  

 32 

 
similar official of the Corporation or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its
inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or 
  

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

 
 Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

  
 If an Event of Default with respect to the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount of
all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Corporation (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. 

 
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with
respect to the Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series, by written notice to the Corporation and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
  

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

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

 
 (C) to the extent that payment of such
interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and 
  

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
  

and 
  

(2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of
Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
  

 33 

 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 503. Collection of
Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
  

The Corporation covenants that if 
  

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such
default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
  

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

  
 the Corporation will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for
the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue
principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  

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

 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any
series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual
to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

 
 Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

 
 In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the
Corporation (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act
in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the 
  

 34 

 
Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 607. 
  
 No provision of
this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder
thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar
official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee. 
  

Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

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

Section 506. Application of Money Collected. 
  

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

  
 First: To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; 
  

Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities
in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively;
and 
  
 Third: To the payment of the
balance, if any, to the Corporation. 
  
 Section 507.
Limitation on Suits. 
  
 No Holder of any
Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 

 

 35 

 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a
continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 
  

(2) the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all affected series, considered
as one class, or, in the case of an Event of Default of the character specified above in Section 501(1), (2) or (3), that series, shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default
in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
  

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
  

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any
such proceeding; and 
  
 (5) no
direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all affected series, considered as one class, or, in the case
of an Event of Default of the character specified above in Section 501(1), (2) or (3), that series, 
  

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
  

Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 

 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the
Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in
such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

 
 Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, the Corporation, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted. 
  

 36 

 Section 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

 
 Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,
and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right
or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  

Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
  

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. 
  

Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often
as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
  

Section 512. Control By Holders. 
  

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series; provided that 

 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict
with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 
  

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

  
 (3) subject to the provisions of
Section 601, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee
in personal liability. 
  
 If an Event of Default is
continuing with respect to all Outstanding Securities, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of all the Outstanding Securities, considered as one class, shall have the right to make such direction, and not the Holders of Securities of any
one series. 
  
 Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

  
 The Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series with respect to which any default under the Indenture shall have occurred and be 

 

 37 

 
continuing (voting as one class) may, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of all such series, waive such past default under the Indenture and its consequences, except a default 

 
 (1) in the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security of such series, or 
  

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of the series affected. 
  

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist and be deemed not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom
shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

 
 Section 514. Undertaking for Costs. 

 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs, including legal fees and expenses of such
suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require
such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in (i) any suit instituted by the Trustee, (ii) any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series, or (iii) any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security
(or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
  

Section 515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
  

The Corporation covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner
whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Corporation (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every
such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
  

 38 

 ARTICLE VI. 

 
 THE TRUSTEE 

 
 Section 601. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

 
 (1) The duties and responsibilities of the
Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise 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 indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 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. 

 
 (2) Except during the continuance of an Event
of Default, 
  
 (A) the Trustee
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

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

(3) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. 

 
 (4) No provision of this Indenture shall be
construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that 
  

(A) this Section 601(4) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 601(2); and 

 
 (B) the Trustee shall not be liable with
respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any 

 

 39 

 
series, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this
Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series. 
  

Section 602. Notice of Defaults. 
  

If a default occurs hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such
series notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no
such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event
of Default with respect to Securities of such series. 
  

Section 603. Certain Rights of Trustee. 
  

Subject to the provisions of Section 601: 
  

(1) 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, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties; 
  
 (2) any request or
direction of the Corporation mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Corporation Request or Corporation Order or as otherwise expressly provided herein, and any resolution of the Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a
Board Resolution; 
  
 (3) whenever in
the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may,
in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate; 
  

(4) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel with
respect to legal matters shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 

 
 (5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation
to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
  

(6) 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, 
  

 40 

 
request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled, at reasonable times previously notified to the Corporation, to examine the relevant
books, records and premises of the Corporation, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Corporation and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 

 
 (7) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts
or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder; 
  
 (8) in no event shall
the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or
damage and regardless of the form of action; 
  

(9) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture;

  
 (10) the Trustee may request, at
the time action is being taken by the Corporation, that the Corporation deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture; 

 
 (11) the rights, privileges, protections,
immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person
employed to act hereunder; and 
  

(12) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and
reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
  

Section 604. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

 
 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except
the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Corporation, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to
the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither the 
  

 41 

 
Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Corporation of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 

 
 Section 605. May Hold Securities. 

 
 The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any
Security Registrar or any other agent of the Corporation, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with the Corporation with the same rights it
would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
  

Section 606. Money Held in Trust. 
  

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 any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Corporation. 
  

Section 607. Compensation and Reimbursement. 
  

The Corporation agrees 
  

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Corporation and
the Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

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

(3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense,
including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including
the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim whether asserted by the Corporation, a Holder or any other Person or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. 

 
 The Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon
all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount owing it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 607, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities. 

 
 Without limiting any rights available to the Trustee under
applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in 

 

 42 

 
Section 501(5) or Section 501(6), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses
of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 
  

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 

 
 Section 608. Conflicting Interests. 

 
 If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest
within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent
permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series. 

 
 Section 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

 
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect
to the Securities of each series, which may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of
at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the
Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities
of any series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

 
 Section 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

  
 No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no
appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 611. 

 
 The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the
Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Corporation. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Corporation, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

 
 The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the
Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Corporation. Upon such removal, the Corporation or the removed Trustee may petition,
at the expense of the Corporation, any court of competent 
  

 43 

 
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
  

If at any time: 
  

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 after written request therefor by the Corporation 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 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor
by the Corporation or by any such Holder, or 
  

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

 
 then, in any such case, (A) the Corporation by a Board Resolution may
remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
  

If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause,
with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Corporation, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor
Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Corporation and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 611, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Corporation. If no successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Corporation or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 611, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six
months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

 
 The Corporation shall give notice of each resignation and
each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner

  

 44 

 
provided in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

 
 Section 611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

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

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Corporation, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which
(1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or
those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or
change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution
and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Corporation or any successor Trustee,
such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor
Trustee relates. 
  
 Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Corporation shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as
the case may be. 
  

 45 

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

Section 612. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

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

Section 613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Corporation. 

 
 If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the
Corporation (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Corporation (or any such other obligor). 

 
 Section 614. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

 
 The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents
acceptable to the Corporation with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption
thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made
in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Corporation and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America, 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 $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
  

 46 

 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate agency or corporate trust
business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided that such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
  
 An
Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Corporation. 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 Corporation. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may
appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Corporation and shall give notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such
Authenticating Agent will 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. 
  

The Corporation agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

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

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

 The Corporation will furnish or
cause to be furnished to the Trustee 
  

(1) 15 days after each Regular Record Date, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of the Holders of Securities of each series as of such Regular Record Date, and 
  

(2) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Corporation of any
such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; 
  

excluding from any such list names and addresses received by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar. 

 
 Section 702. Preservation of Information; Communications to
Holders. 
  
 The Trustee shall preserve, in as
current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 701 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity
as Security Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 701 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 
  

The rights of Holders to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and the
corresponding rights and privileges of the Trustee, shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. 
  

Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Corporation and the Trustee that neither the Corporation
nor the Trustee nor any agent of either 
  

 48 

 
of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act. 

 
 Section 703. Reports by Trustee. 

 
 The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning
the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. If required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall,
within 60 days after each May 15 following the date of this Indenture, deliver to Holders a brief report, dated as of such May 15, which complies with the provisions of such Section 313(a). 

 
 A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee, with each stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Corporation. The Corporation will promptly notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any
stock exchange or any delisting thereof. 
  
 Section 704.
Reports by Corporation. 
  
 The Corporation
shall file with the Trustee, and transmit to Holders, such information, documents and other reports, and such summaries thereof, as may be required pursuant to Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided
pursuant to such Act; provided that any such information, documents or reports required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act shall be filed with the Trustee within 15 days after the same is
filed with the Commission. All required information, documents and other reports referred to in this Section 704 shall be deemed filed with the Trustee and transmitted to the Holders at the time such information, documents or other reports are
publicly filed with the Commission via the Commission’s Electronic-Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system, including the Commission’s Interactive Data Electronic Application system). Delivery of such
reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Corporation’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 

 
 ARTICLE VIII. 

 
 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE OR TRANSFER

  
 Section 801. Corporation May Consolidate, Etc., Only
on Certain Terms. 
  
 The Corporation shall not
consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, and no Person shall consolidate with or merge into the Corporation or convey, transfer or lease its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to the Corporation, unless: 
  

 49 

 (1) in case the Corporation shall consolidate with or merge into another
Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Corporation is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or
which leases, the properties and assets of the Corporation substantially as an entirety shall be a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or trust organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State
thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on all the Securities and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Corporation to be performed or observed; 
  

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice of lapse of
time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; 
  

(3) such other conditions as may be specified pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of any series
shall have been satisfied; and 
  

(4) the Corporation shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating
that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to such transaction have been complied with; and the Trustee, subject to Section 601, may rely upon such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that such transaction complies with this
Section 801. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Corporation may merge or consolidate with or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to an Affiliate that has no significant assets or liabilities and was formed solely for the purpose of changing the jurisdiction of organization of the
Corporation or the form of organization of the Corporation; provided that the amount of indebtedness of the Corporation is not increased thereby; and provided, further that the successor assumes all obligations of the Corporation under this
Indenture. 
  
 Section 802. Successor Substituted.

  
 Upon any consolidation of the Corporation with,
or merger of the Corporation into, any other Person or any conveyance or transfer of the properties and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in accordance with Section 801, the successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into which the Corporation is merged or to which such conveyance or transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Corporation under this Indenture with the same effect as
if such successor Person had been named as the Corporation herein, and thereafter the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. 

 

 50 

 Such successor Person may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the
name of the Corporation, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Corporation and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person instead of the Corporation, and
subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Corporation to the
Trustee for authentication pursuant to such provisions and any Securities which such successor Person thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee on its behalf for the purpose pursuant to such provisions. All the Securities so
issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of
the execution hereof. 
  
 In case of any such
consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or lease, such changes in phraseology and form may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 

 
 ARTICLE IX.

 (11) to comply with the rules or regulations
of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the Securities may be listed or traded; or 
  

(12) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the
qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted, and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the Trust Indenture Act; or

time the Corporation 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, and the Corporation hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
  

The Corporation may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may
be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Corporation of its obligation to
maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for the Securities of any series for such purposes. The Corporation will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any
such other office or agency. 
  
 Section 1003. Money for
Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
  
 If
the Corporation shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in
trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly
notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
  

Whenever the Corporation shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the
principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the
Corporation will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
  

The Corporation will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on
Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Corporation (or any other obligor
upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, (3) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (4) during the continuance of any default by
the Corporation (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making 
  

 55 

 
of any payment in respect of the Securities of that series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such- Paying Agent for payment in
respect of the Securities of that series. 
  
 The
Corporation may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Corporation Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust hereunder by the
Corporation or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Corporation or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent
shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 
  

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Corporation, in trust for the payment of the principal of or
any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Corporation on Corporation Request, or (if then held by the
Corporation) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Corporation for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Corporation 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 Corporation 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 Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, 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 will be repaid to the Corporation. 

 
 Section 1004. Corporate Existence. 

 
 Subject to Article Eight, the Corporation will do or cause to
be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. 
  

Section 1005. Statement by Officers as to Default. 
  

The Corporation will deliver to the Trustee, on or before October 15 of each calendar year or, on or before such other day in each
calendar year as the Corporation may specify in a notice to the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate, which need not comply with Section 102, stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Corporation is in default in the
performance and observance of any of the terms of this Indenture. 
  

Section 1006. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
  

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series, the Corporation may, with respect to the
Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided 

 

 56 

 
pursuant to Section 301(19), 901(2) or 901(8) for the benefit of the Holders of such series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term,
provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Corporation and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full
force and effect. 
  
 Section 1007. Calculation of Original
Issue Discount. 
  
 The Corporation shall file
with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year (i) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding Securities as of the end of such year and
(ii) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 

 
 ARTICLE XI. 

 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

 
 Section 1101. Applicability of Article. 

 
 The Securities of any series which are redeemable before
their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities) in accordance with this Article. 

 
 Section 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 

 
 The election of the Corporation to redeem any Securities
shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of the Corporation, the Corporation shall, at least 45 days prior to the
Redemption Date fixed by the Corporation (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor
of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities (A) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, or (B) pursuant to an
election of the Corporation which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Corporation shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such
restriction or condition. 
  
 Section 1103. Selection by
Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 
  
 If less
than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall
be selected not more than 60 days 
  

 57 

 
prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and
which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of such series; provided that 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. If less than all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular
Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding
sentence. 
  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Corporation in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

 
 The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not
apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be
in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. 
  

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 Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 

 
 Section 1104. Notice of Redemption. 

 
 Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. 

 
 All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be
redeemed (including CUSIP number(s)) and shall state: 
  

(1) the Redemption Date; 
  

(2) the Redemption Price; 
  

(3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series and of a specified tenor consisting of more than a single
Security are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any such Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed and, if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series and of
a specified tenor consisting of a single Security are to be redeemed, the principal amount of the particular Security to be redeemed; 
  

 58 

 (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price, together with accrued
interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date; 

 
 (5) the place or places where each such
Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, unless it shall have been specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to such Securities that such surrender shall not be required;

  
 (6) that the redemption is for a
sinking fund, if such is the case; and 
  

(7) such other matters as the Corporation shall deem desirable or appropriate. 

 
 Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities in
accordance with Section 301, with respect to any redemption of Securities at the election of the Corporation, unless, upon the giving of notice of such redemption, Defeasance shall have been effected with respect to such Securities pursuant to
Section 1302, such notice may state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the Trustee or the Paying Agent(s) for such Securities, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of money sufficient to pay the
principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities and that if such money shall not have been so received such notice shall be of no force or effect and the Corporation shall not be required to redeem such Securities. In the event that
such notice of redemption contains such a condition and such money is not so received, the redemption shall not be made and within a reasonable time thereafter notice shall be given, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that
such money was not so received and such redemption was not required to be made, and the Trustee or Paying Agent(s) for the Securities otherwise to have been redeemed shall promptly return to the Holders thereof any of such Securities which had been
surrendered for payment upon such redemption. 
  

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Corporation, and any notice of non-satisfaction of redemption as
aforesaid, shall be given by the Corporation or, at the Corporation’s request and provision of such notice information as set forth in this Section 1104 at least 5 Business Days prior to the requested date for the giving of such notice, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Corporation. Subject to the preceding paragraph, any such notice of redemption shall be irrevocable. 
  

Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  

On or prior to the Redemption Date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 1104, the Corporation will
deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Corporation is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Corporation will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of; and any accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 
  

 59 

 Section 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, and the
conditions, if any, set forth in such notice having been satisfied, the Securities or portions thereof so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date
(unless, in the case of an unconditional notice of redemption, the Corporation shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any) such Securities or portions thereof, if interest-bearing, shall cease to bear interest.
Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security or portion thereof shall be paid by the Corporation at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date;
provided, however, that no such surrender shall be a condition to such payment if so specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to such Security, and provided further that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the
relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
  

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall,
until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
  

Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. 
  

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Corporation or the
Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Corporation 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 and of like tenor, 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. 
  

ARTICLE XII. 
  

SINKING FUNDS 
  

Section 1201. Applicability of Article. 
  

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities of any series except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. 
  

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any Securities is herein referred to as a “mandatory
sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of such Securities is herein referred to 

 

 60 

 
as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of any Securities, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in
Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities as provided for by the terms of such Securities. 
  

Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

 
 The Corporation (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities
of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Corporation pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the
application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be made pursuant
to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and
credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

  
 Section 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking
Fund. 
  
 Not less than 45 days prior to each
sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the
portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1202 and stating the basis for such credit and that such
Securities have not been previously so credited and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior to each such sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon
such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Corporation in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having
been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1105 and 1106. 
  

ARTICLE XIII. 
  

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
  

Section 1301. Applicability of Article. 
  

Unless, pursuant to Section 301, provision is made that either or both of (A) defeasance of any Securities or any series of
Securities under Section 1302 and (B) covenant defeasance of any Securities or any series of Securities under Section 1303 shall not apply to such Securities of a series, then the provisions of either or both of Sections 1302 and
1303, as the case may be, together with Sections 1304 and 1305, shall be applicable to the Outstanding Securities of such series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article. 

 

 61 

 Section 1302. Defeasance and Discharge. 

 
 The Corporation may cause itself to be discharged from its
obligations with respect to any Securities or any series of Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that
the Corporation shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and
the Trustee, at the expense of the Corporation, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such
Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities when payments are due, (2) the
Corporation’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003 and with respect to the Trustee under Section 607, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, Defeasance with respect to any Securities or any series of Securities by the Corporation is permitted under this Section 1302 notwithstanding the prior exercise by the
Corporation of its rights under Section 1303 with respect to such Securities. Following a Defeasance, payment of such Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. 

 
 Section 1303. Covenant Defeasance. 

 
 The Corporation may cause itself to be released from its
obligations under any covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(19), 901(2), 901(6) or 901(8) with respect to any Securities or any series of Securities for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and the occurrence of any event
specified in Sections 501(4) (with respect to any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(19), 901(2), 901(6) or 901(8)) or 501(7) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default with respect to such Securities as provided in
this Section, in each case on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such
Securities, the Corporation may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 501(4)), whether directly
or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be
unaffected thereby. 
  
 Section 1304. Conditions to
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The
following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1302 or Section 1303 to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be: 

 
 (1) The Corporation shall irrevocably have
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the

  

 62 

 
Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with
their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the case of (B) or (C), in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities on the respective Stated
Maturities or on any Redemption Date established pursuant to Clause (3) below, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used herein, “Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is
(i) a direct obligation of the United States of America or the government which issued the foreign currency in which such Securities are payable, for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a
Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America or such government which issued the foreign currency in which such Securities are payable, the payment of which is unconditionally
guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America or such other government, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt
issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any Government Obligation which is specified in clause (x) above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary
receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any Government Obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from
the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt. 

 
 (2) No event which is, or after notice or
lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit. 

 
 (3) If the Securities are to be redeemed
prior to Stated Maturity (other than from mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments), notice of such redemption shall have been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made.

  
 (4) The Corporation shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

 
 Section 1305. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held
in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  
 Subject
to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to 

 

 63 

 
Section 1304 in respect of any Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either
directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Corporation acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium
and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  

The Corporation shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities. 

 
 Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Corporation from time to time upon Corporation Request any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1304 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities. 
  

ARTICLE XIV. 
  

IMMUNITY OF INCORPORATORS, 

STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS 
  

Section 1401. Indenture and Securities Solely Corporate Obligations. 

 
 No recourse for the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Corporation in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture, or in any
Security, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Corporation or of any successor corporation, either
directly or through the Corporation or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability
is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Securities. 
  

This instrument 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. 
  

 64 

 In witness whereof, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of
the day and year first above written.

 65Form of Special Compensation Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 

FORM OF 

SPECIAL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT 

THIS SPECIAL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of
                                , (the “Effective Date”) by and between:
ManTech International Corporation, its subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, affiliates and/or divisions (collectively hereinafter “ManTech”); and
                                 (“Key Employee”). ManTech and Key
Employee are sometimes also referred to herein individually as “Party” and collectively as “Parties”. In consideration of the promises, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties contained herein, and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Special
Retention Bonus. Provided that Key Employee has continuously remained a ManTech employee in good standing from the effective date of this Agreement through 31 December 2011 and Key Employee has complied with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, ManTech will pay Key Employee a special retention bonus in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (the “Special Retention Bonus”). 

2. Payment of the Special Retention Bonus. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, payment of the Special Retention Bonus shall be
made by ManTech to Key Employee on or within ten (10) business days after 31 December 2011. The Special Retention Bonus payment shall be subject to tax withholding by ManTech in accordance with law. 

3. Early Termination. ManTech shall not pay the Special Retention Bonus to Key Employee if, prior to 31 December 2011, Key Employee: 1) is
terminated for Good Cause (as defined below) by ManTech; or 2) resigns his employment with ManTech for any reason. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good Cause” means termination of employment due to Key Employee’s:
(i) fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement or acts of similar dishonesty; (ii) conviction of a felony; (iii) illegal use of drugs or excessive use of alcohol; (iv) intentional misconduct that may subject ManTech to criminal or
civil liability; (v) insubordination or failure to comply with ManTech policies; (vi) breach of the substantive obligations of this Agreement; or (vii) breach of Key Employee’s duty of loyalty, including diversion or usurpation
of corporate opportunities properly belonging to ManTech. In the event of Key Employee’s termination of employment prior to 31 December 2011 by ManTech other than for Good Cause, or due to Key Employee’s death or total and permanent
disability, Key Employee shall be entitled to receive payment of the Special Retention Bonus. Payment of the Special Retention Bonus shall be made by ManTech to Key Employee (or, in the case of Key Employee’s death, to Key Employee’s
estate) on or as soon as administratively practicable (and in any event within 60 days) after the date of such termination. 

 4. At-Will Employment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement changes the
fact that Key Employee’s employment with ManTech is based on an at-will employment relationship; meaning that regardless of this Agreement, ManTech or Key Employee may end the employment relationship at any time, for any reason or no reason at
all. 
 5. No Effect on Key Employee’s Compensation Structure. The Parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement
