Company) in trust or set aside and segregated in trust by the Company (if the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent) for the
Holders of such Securities; provided that, if such Securities are to be redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly
given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee has been made;

(3)       Securities as to which
Defeasance has been effected pursuant to Section 13.02; and 

(4)       Securities which have
been paid pursuant to Section 3.06 or in exchange for or in lieu of which other Securities have been authenticated and delivered
pursuant to this Indenture, other than any such Securities in respect of which there shall have been presented to the Trustee proof
satisfactory to it that such Securities are held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Securities are valid obligations
of the Company;

provided, however, that in determining whether
the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver hereunder, (A) the principal amount of an Original Issue Discount Security that shall be deemed to be
Outstanding shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon
acceleration of the Maturity thereof to such date pursuant to Section 5.02, (B) the principal amount of a Security denominated
in one or more foreign currencies or currency units shall be the U.S. dollar equivalent, determined in the manner provided as contemplated

whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver,
only Securities which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded.  Securities
so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of

other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor.

Section 1.04          
Acts of Holders; Record Dates.

    	 	 6	 

     

    

Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given 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 Company.  Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing
such instrument or instruments.  Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall
be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company,
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 his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. 
The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also
be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

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 Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Security.

The Company may, in the circumstances permitted
by the Trust Indenture Act, set any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities
of any series entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided
or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series.  With regard to any record date
set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date (or their duly
appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to give or take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain
Holders after such record date.  With regard to any action that may be given or taken hereunder only by Holders of a requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series (or their duly appointed agents) and for which a record date is set pursuant
to this paragraph, the Company may, at its option, set an expiration date after which no such action purported to be given or taken
by any Holder shall be effective hereunder unless given or taken on or prior to such expiration date by Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents).  On or prior
to any expiration date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company may, on one or more occasions at its option, extend such date
to any later date.  Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent any Holder (or any duly appointed agent thereof) from giving or
taking, after any such expiration date, any action identical to, or, at any time, contrary to or different from, the action or
purported action to which such expiration date relates, in which event the Company may set a record date in respect thereof pursuant
to this paragraph.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken at any time by the
Holders (or their duly appointed agents) of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on
the date such action is so taken.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or the Trust Indenture Act, the Company shall not set a record
date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any notice, declaration or direction referred to
in the next paragraph.

The Trustee may set any day as a record
date for the purpose of determining the Holders of 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 5.02, if an Event of Default with respect
to Securities of such series has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee shall not have given such a declaration to the Company,
(iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 5.12, in
each case with respect to Securities of such series.  Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Trustee shall notify the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Series of such series of any such record date so fixed and the
proposed action.  The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents),
and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided that, unless such notice, declaration or direction shall have become effective by virtue
of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed
agents) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such notice, declaration or direction shall automatically
and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed
to prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a notice,
declaration or direction contrary to or different from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, the notice, declaration
or direction to which such record date relates, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this
paragraph.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any notice, declaration or direction of the
type referred to in this paragraph given at any time to the Trustee and the Company by Holders (or their duly appointed agents)
of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such notice, declaration or direction
is so given.

    	 	 7	 

     

    

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder
entitled hereunder to give or 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 different part of such principal amount.

Section 1.05          
Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.

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

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

(2)          
the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly

office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee
by the Company.

Section 1.06          
Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice

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 1.07          
Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies
or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that 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 that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be
excluded, as the case may be.  Wherever this Indenture refers to a provision of the Trust Indenture Act, such provision is
incorporated by reference in and made a part of this Indenture.

[if the Security is to bear interest prior to Maturity, insert —, and to pay interest thereon from

for payment [if applicable, insert —, and at the rate of         %
per annum on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue installment of interest].  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

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 time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent

shall bear interest at the rate of         % per annum, which shall accrue from
the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for.  Interest on
any overdue principal shall be payable on demand.  Any such interest on any overdue principal that is not so paid on demand
shall bear interest at the rate of             % per annum,
which shall accrue from the date of such demand for payment to the date payment of such interest has been made or duly provided
for, and such interest shall also be payable on demand.]

Payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and [if applicable, insert — any such] interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for that purpose in                            ,

may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register].

Reference is hereby made to the further
provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect
as if set forth at this place.

hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled
to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

As provided in and subject to the provisions
of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any 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 25% 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 reasonable indemnity and the Trustee

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.

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

    	 	 16	 

     

    

If any of the terms of the series are established
by action taken pursuant to an Establishment Action, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate
setting forth the terms of the series.

The Company may, from time to time, by
an Establishment Action and subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Indenture, without the consent of
the Holders, create and issue pursuant to this Indenture additional securities of any series of Securities (“Add On Securities”)
having terms and conditions identical to those of such series of Outstanding Securities, except that such Add On Securities:

(i)           
may have a different issue date from such series of Outstanding Securities;

(ii)          
may have a different amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date after issuance than is payable on such series
of Outstanding Securities; and

(iii)         
may have terms specified in such Establishment Action for such Add On Securities making appropriate adjustments to this Article
III applicable to such Add On Securities in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or applicable securities
laws) which are not adverse in any material respect to the Holder of any Outstanding Securities (other than such Add On Securities)
and which shall not affect the rights or duties of the Trustee.

Section 3.02          
Denominations.

The Securities of each series shall be
issuable only in registered form without coupons in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. 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 3.03          
Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

The Securities shall be executed on behalf
of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its President, one of its Vice Presidents or its Treasurer
under its corporate seal reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries or by its Chief Financial
Officer.  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 Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or
did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time after
the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any Series executed by the Company to the Trustee
for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance
with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.  If the form or terms of the Securities of the series
have been established in or pursuant to one or more Establishment Actions as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01, in authenticating
such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee
shall be provided with, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

(1)          
if the form of such Securities has been established by an Establishment Action as permitted by Section 2.01, that such form has
been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

    	 	 17	 

     

    

(2)          
if the terms of such Securities have been established by an Establishment Action as permitted by Section 3.01, that such terms
have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

(3)          
that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable
in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and 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.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
3.01 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be
necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or the Company Order and Opinion
of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of
such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such
series to be issued.

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, 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 Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all
purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never
be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.04          
Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities
of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company 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 Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.  After the
preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive
Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a
Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Securities of any series the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more
definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. Until
so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture
as definitive Securities of such series and tenor.

Section 3.05          
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

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

    	 	 18	 

     

    

Upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Security of any series at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of
the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor.

At the option of the Holder, Securities
of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate
principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency.  Whenever any Securities
are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which
the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration
of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to
the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the 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 Company or Security Registrar 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 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 not involving any transfer.

The Company shall not be required (1) to
issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days
before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that series selected for redemption under Section 11.03
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (2) 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.

Notwithstanding any other provision in
this Indenture, no Global Security may be transferred to, or registered or exchanged for Securities registered in the name of,
any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or any nominee thereof, and no such transfer may be registered, unless
(1) such Depositary (A) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security
or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (2) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee
a Company Order that such Global Security shall be so transferable, registrable and exchangeable, and such transfers shall be registrable,
(3) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Securities evidenced by such Global Security
or (4) there shall exist such other circumstances, if any, as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 3.01. 
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a Global Security to which the restriction set forth in the preceding sentence
shall have ceased to apply may be transferred only to, and may be registered and exchanged for Securities registered only in the
name or names of, such Person or Persons as the Depositary for such Global Security shall have directed and no transfer thereof
other than such a transfer may be registered.

Every Security authenticated and delivered
upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security to which the restriction set forth in the
first sentence of the preceding paragraph shall apply, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 3.04, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 or otherwise,
shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security.

Section 3.06          
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

    	 	 19	 

     

    

If any mutilated Security is surrendered
to the Trustee, the Company 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 Company
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 Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company 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 Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing
a new Security, pay such Security.

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

Every new Security of any series issued
pursuant to this Section in exchange for any mutilated Security or in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute
an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, 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 3.07          
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated
by Section 3.01 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. 

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 Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or
(2) below:

(1)          
The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or
their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the
same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in
this Clause provided.  Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which
shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after
the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special
Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest
and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at
his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.  Notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date 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).

    	 	 20	 

     

    

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

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 3.08          
Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment of a Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name 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 3.07) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security
be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

Section 3.09          
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 cancelled by it.  The Company may at any time deliver
to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired
in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation
any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall
be promptly cancelled by the Trustee.  No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled
as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.  All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee
shall be disposed of by the Trustee in its customary manner.

Section 3.10          
Computation of Interest.

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

Section 3.11          
CUSIP Numbers.

The Company 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.  The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any changes in the “CUSIP”
numbers.

    	 	 23	 

     

    

Section 5.02          
Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default with respect to
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 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any
of the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities
as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice
in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), 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 Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due
has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration
and its consequences if

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

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

(B)          
the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration
of acceleration and 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 5.13.

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

Section 5.03          
Collection and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company 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 Company 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.

    	 	 24	 

     

    

If an Event of Default with respect to
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 necessary
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 5.04          
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of any judicial proceeding relative
to the Company (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 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 6.07.

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 5.05          
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 5.06          
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 6.07;

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 Company.

Section 5.07          
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

    	 	 25	 

     

    

(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 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request
to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3)          
such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable 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 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 5.08          
Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in
this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the
principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) 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 5.09          
Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted
any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination
in such proceeding, the Company, 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. 

Section 5.10          
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 3.06, no right
or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right
or remedy.

Section 5.11          
Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or
of any Holder of any 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.

    	 	 26	 

     

    

Section 5.12          
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 6.01, 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 proceedings so directed would involve
the Trustee in personal liability.

Section 5.13          
Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of not less than a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series
waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series 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 IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder
of each Outstanding Security of such series affected.

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

Section 5.14          
Undertaking for Costs.

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 of such suit, and may assess costs
against any such party litigant, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, in the manner and to the extent provided
in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall apply to any suit instituted
by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holders of the Securities, or group of Holders of the Securities, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% of principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder
of the Outstanding Securities for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Outstanding Securities held
by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Outstanding Securities, and provided, further,
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 any suit instituted by the Company.

Section 5.15          
Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that
it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit
or advantage of, any usury, 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 Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE VI

THE TRUSTEE

The Trustee hereby accepts the trust imposed
upon it by this Indenture and covenants and agrees to perform the same, as herein expressed.

Section 6.01          
Duties of Trustee.

(a)          
If 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 own affairs.

(b)          
Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(1)          
The Trustee need perform only those duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no covenants or obligations
shall be implied in or read into this Indenture.

(2)          
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. However, 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 substantially
conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or
other facts stated therein).

(c)          
The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

(1)          
This paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.01.

(2)          
The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that
the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(3)          
The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to Section 5.12.

(d)          
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 to take or omit to take any action under this Indenture.

(e)          
Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) and (f) of
this Section 6.01.

(f)           
The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any assets received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. 
Assets held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other assets except to the extent required by law.

    	 	 28	 

     

    

Section 6.02          
Rights of Trustee.

Subject to Section 6.01:

(a)          
The Trustee may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and
to have been signed or presented by the proper person.  The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any
document.

(b)          
Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. 
The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.

(c)          
The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent
appointed with due care.

(d)          
The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within
its rights or powers.

(e)          
The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, 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 to examine the books, records and premises
of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability
of any kind by reason of such investigation.

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

(g)          
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,

(h)          
The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request

indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with
such request or direction.

(i)           
The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has

Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture.

Section 6.03          
Individual Rights of Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other
capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company, or its Affiliates with the same

However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 6.08, 6.09 and 6.10.

Section 6.04          
Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Trustee makes no representation as
to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities and it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of

Section 6.05          
Notice of Default.

If an Event of Default with respect to
Securities of any series occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall
mail to each Holder of Securities of such series notice of the uncured Event of Default within 90 days after such Event of Default
occurs.  Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) of, or interest on, any Security,
the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer in good faith determines that withholding the notice
is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series.

Section 6.06          
Reports by Trustee to Holders.

Within 60 days after each February 15 beginning
with the February 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such
February 15 that complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) if such report is required by such Trust Indenture Act Section
313(a).  The Trustee also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Sections 313(b) and 313(c).

The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee
in writing if the Securities of any series become listed on any stock exchange or automatic quotation system.

A copy of each report at the time of its
mailing to Holders shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the Commission and each stock exchange, if any, on which the Securities
are listed.

Section 6.07          
Compensation and Indemnity.

The Company shall pay to the Trustee from
time to time such compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. 
The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  The Company
shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by it. 
Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents, accountants,
experts and counsel.

The Company shall indemnify each of the
Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee) and any predecessor Trustee and each of their respective officers, directors, attorneys-in-fact
and agents for, and hold it harmless against, any claim, damage, demand, expense (including but not limited to reasonable compensation,
disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel), loss, charges (including taxes (other than taxes based upon
the income of the Trustee)) or liability incurred by them without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of this trust and their rights or duties hereunder including the reasonable costs and expenses
of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder.  The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek
indemnity.  The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s
expense in the defense.  The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses
of such counsel.  The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its written consent which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.  The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability to the extent
incurred by the Trustee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by its own negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations
in this Section 6.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all assets held or collected by the Trustee, in
its capacity as Trustee, except assets held in trust to pay principal and premium, if any, of or interest on particular Securities.

    	 	 30	 

     

    

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders
services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(5) or (6) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services
are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Company’s obligations under this
Section 6.07 and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the discharge of the Company’s
obligations pursuant to Article IV of this Indenture and any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 6.08          
Replacement of Trustee.

The Trustee may resign at any time with
respect to the Securities of one or more series by so notifying the Company in writing.  The Holder or Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of a series may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of such series
by so notifying the Company and the Trustee in writing and may appoint a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series
with the Company’s consent.  The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(1)          
the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.10;

(2)

(3)

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or
if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, for any reason, the Company
shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee, with respect to Securities of that or those series.  Within one year after the
successor Trustee with respect to a series of Securities takes office, the Holder or Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Securities of such series may appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such series to replace the successor Trustee appointed
by the Company.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written
acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company.  Immediately after that and provided that all sums
owing to the Trustee provided for in Section 6.07 have been paid, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as
Trustee with respect to such series of Securities to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided in Section 6.07, the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties
of the Trustee under this Indenture.  A successor Trustee with respect to one or more series of Securities shall mail notice
of its succession to each Holder of Securities of that or those series.

If a successor Trustee with respect to
a series of Securities does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee,
the Company or the Holder or Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that series may petition
at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such
series.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section
6.10, any Holder of Securities of a series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with
respect to such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 6.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring
Trustee.

Section 6.09          
Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges
or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the resulting,
surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise
eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee.

Exchange Act of 1934 shall be filed with the Trustee within 15 days after the same is so required to be filed with the Commission.
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

exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

Section 10.01        
Payment of Securities.

The Company covenants and agrees for the
benefit of each series of Securities that it will pay the principal of and interest on the Securities of that series on the dates
and in the manner provided in the Securities of that series and this Indenture. An installment of principal, premium, if any, or
interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent (other than the Company
or an Affiliate of the Company) holds for the benefit of the Holders, on that date, immediately available funds deposited and designated

at the rate specified in the Securities compounded semi-annually, to the extent lawful.

to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt
written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company

of any series for such purposes. The Company shall 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. The Company hereby initially designates the principal corporate
trust office of the Trustee as such office of the Company.

Section 10.03        
Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.

    	 	 36	 

     

    

If the Company 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 Company 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 Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action
or failure so to act.

The Company 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) comply with the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (2) during the continuance of any default by the Company
(or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making 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 Company may at any time, for the purpose
of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying
Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon
the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying
Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or
any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of 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 Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder
of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability
of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may
at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published
on each Business Day and of general circulation in New York City, 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 Company.

Section 10.04        
Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default.

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee
within 120 days after the end of its fiscal year an Officers’ Certificate (one of the signatories of which shall be the Company’s
principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer) complying with Section 314(a)(4) of the
Trust Indenture Act and stating that a review of its activities during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision
of the signing officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations
under this Indenture (all without regard to periods of grace, which shall be deemed fulfilled unless and until the expiration of
such periods) or notice requirements) and further stating, as to each such officer signing such certificate, whether or not the
signer knows of any failure by the Company to comply with any conditions or covenants in this Indenture and, if such signer does
know of such a failure to comply, the certificate shall describe such failure with particularity. The Officers’ Certificate
shall also notify the Trustee should the relevant fiscal year end on any date other than the current fiscal year end date.

Section 10.05        
Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article VIII, the Company shall
do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence in accordance
with its organizational documents and the rights (charter and statutory) and corporate franchises of the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to preserve, with respect to itself, any right or franchise, if (a) the Board of Directors
of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company

for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in Section 10.05, if the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

Section 11.01        
Applicability of Article.

Section 11.02        
Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

The election of the Company to redeem any
Securities shall be evidenced by an Establishment Action.  In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less
than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (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 prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities
or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance
with such restriction.

Section 11.03

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 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 portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of
that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than
the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series.  If less than all of the Securities of such series and
of a specified tenor are to be redeemed, 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.

    	 	 38	 

     

    

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company
in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed.

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 11.04        
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 state:

(1)          
the Redemption Date,

(2)          
the Redemption Price,

(3)          
if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption
of any Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

(4)          
that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price 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 such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,

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

(7)          
applicable CUSIP Numbers.

Notice of redemption of Securities to be
redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable.

Section 11.05        
Deposit of Redemption Price.

On or before the Redemption Date specified
in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 11.04, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent
(or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest
on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

Section 11.06        
Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption having been given
as aforesaid, the Securities 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 the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest)
such Securities shall cease to bear interest.  Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said
notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date;
provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, installments of interest whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall 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 3.07.

    	 	 39	 

     

    

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 11.07        
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 Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by,
or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or
his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series 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 12.01        
Applicability of Article.

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

The minimum amount of any sinking fund
payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series 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 Securities of any series is herein referred to as
an “optional sinking fund payment”.  If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount
of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02.  Each sinking fund payment shall be
applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

Section 12.02        
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

The Company (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 Company 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 the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities
as provided for by the terms of such series; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited.  Such
Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities
for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 12.03        
Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.

Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking
fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying
the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, 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 of that series pursuant to Section 12.02 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. 
Not less than 30 days before 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 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the
name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04.  Such notice having been duly given, the
redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

ARTICLE XIII

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section 13.01        
Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The Company may elect, at its option at
any time, to have either Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of any series designated pursuant
to Section 3.01 as being defeasible pursuant to this Article XIII (hereinafter called a “Defeasible Series”), upon
compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article XIII.  Any such election shall be evidenced by an Establishment
Action or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such Securities.

Section 13.02        
Defeasance and Discharge.

Upon the Company’s exercise of the
option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.02 applied to the Outstanding Securities of any Defeasible Series and
subject to Section 13.01, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the Outstanding
Securities of such series as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 are satisfied
(hereinafter called “Defeasance”).  For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to
have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series and to have satisfied
all its other obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture insofar as the Securities of such series are concerned
(and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, 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 Securities of such series
to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 13.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect
of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities of such series when payments are due, (2) the Company’s
obligations with respect to the Securities of such series under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 10.02 and 10.03, (3) the rights, powers,
trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article XIII.  Subject to compliance with this Article
XIII, the Company may exercise its option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.02 applied to the Outstanding Securities

to the Outstanding Securities of such series.

Section 13.03        
Covenant Defeasance.

Upon the Company’s exercise of the
option provided in Section 13.01 to have this Section 13.03 applied to the Outstanding Securities of any Defeasible Series, (1)
the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 8.01 and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 3.01(17),
9.01(2) or 9.01(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections
5.01(3), 5.01(4) (with respect to Section 8.01 and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 3.01(17), 9.01(2) or 9.01(7)),
and 5.01(7) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Outstanding Securities
of such series as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 are satisfied (hereinafter
called “Covenant Defeasance”).  For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that the Company may omit to
comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section
(to the extent so specified in the case of Section 5.01(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 the Securities of such series shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 13.04        
Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to
application of either Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 to the Outstanding Securities of any Defeasible Series:

    	 	 41	 

     

    

(1)          
The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee that satisfies the
requirements contemplated by Section 6.09 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article XIII applicable to it) as trust
funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to,
the benefit of the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations
that through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not
later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and
discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities of such series on the respective Stated Maturities,
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities of such series.  As used herein, “U.S. Government
Obligation” means (x) any security that is (i) a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which
full faith and credit of the United States of America 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 the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as
a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, 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 of 1933, as amended) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation specified in Clause (x) and held by such custodian
for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on
any such U.S. Government Obligation, 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 U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.

(2)          
In the case of an election under Section 13.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that
(A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date
first set forth hereinabove, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the
effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not
recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with
respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at
the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

(3)          
In the case of an election under Section 13.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as
a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject
to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant
Defeasance were not to occur.

(4)          
The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such series,
if then listed on any securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.

(5)          
No Event of Default or event that (after notice or lapse of time or both) would become an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any Event of Default or any such event specified in Sections 5.01(6)
and (6), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall
not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day).

    	 	 42	 

     

    

(6)          
Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust
Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act).

(7)          
Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement
or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

(8)          
The Company 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.

(9)          
Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, unless such trust shall be qualified under such Act or exempt
from regulation thereunder.

Section
13.05                         
Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions.

All money and U.S. Government Obligations
(including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and
Section 13.06, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section
13.04 in respect of the Securities of any Defeasible Series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with
the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying
Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of Securities of such
series, 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 Company shall pay and indemnify the
Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant
to Section 13.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by
law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

Anything in this Article XIII to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government
Obligations held by it as provided in Section 13.04 with respect to Securities of any Defeasible Series that, 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 that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance with respect to the Securities of such series.

Section 13.06        
Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable
to apply any money in accordance with this Article XIII with respect to the Securities of any series by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s
obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to this Article XIII with respect to Securities of such series until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted
to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 13.05 with respect to Securities of such series in accordance with this Article
XIII; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any
Security of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders
of Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.

ARTICLE XIV

SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES

 

Section 14.01       Securities Subordinate to Senior Debt.

 

The Company for itself, its successors and assigns,
covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof,
by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on
each and all Securities is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter in this Article set forth,
in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt. The provisions of this Article shall constitute a continuing
offer to all persons who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Debt, and such provisions
are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt, and such holders are hereby made obligees hereunder the same as if their
names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.

 

Section 14.02       Payments to Securityholders. 

 

(a)       Upon (i) any acceleration of the principal
amount due on the Securities of any series or (ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization
of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, or any assignment
for the benefit of creditors, marshaling of assets and liabilities, or any debt restructuring or similar proceedings in connection
with any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, all principal, premium, if any, sinking funds and interest, if any, due upon all
Senior Debt shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in cash or cash equivalents in accordance with its terms,
before any payment is made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities,
and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company
of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of the Securities of any series under the
terms of this Indenture would be entitled, except for the provisions hereof, shall (subject to the power of a court of competent
jurisdiction to make other equitable provision reflecting the rights conferred by the provisions hereof upon the Senior Debt and
the holders thereof with respect to the Securities and the Holders thereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable
bankruptcy law), be paid by the Company or any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making
such payment or distribution, or by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities if received by them, directly to the holders of
Senior Debt (pro rata to each such holder on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt held by such holder) or their representatives,
to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt (including interest thereon) in full in cash or cash equivalents in accordance with
its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Debt, before any payment
or distribution is made to the Holders of the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities. The consolidation of the Company with,
or a merger of the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer
of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another Person upon the terms and conditions provided in Section 8.01
hereof shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 14.02(a).

 

(b)       In the event that any payment or distribution
of assets of the Company of any kind or character not permitted by Section 14.02(a), whether in cash, property or securities,
shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders of Securities before all Senior Debt is paid in full, or provision made for such
payment, in accordance with its terms upon written notice to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, such payment or distribution
shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, (i) the holders of such Senior Debt or
their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing
any of such Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interest may appear, or (ii) if applicable, any receiver,
trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company, in each
case for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Debt in
full in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to holders of such Senior Debt.
Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 5.06 or Section 6.07.
In addition, nothing in this Article shall prevent the Company from making or the Trustee from receiving or applying any payment
in connection with the redemption of Securities of a series if the first publication of notice of such redemption (whether by mail
or otherwise in accordance with this Indenture) has been made, and the Trustee has received such payment from the Company, prior
to the occurrence of any of the contingencies specified in this Section 14.02.

 

    	 	 44	 

     

    

(c)       No payment on account of principal of, premium,
if any, sinking funds or interest on the Securities of any series shall be made unless full payment of amounts then due for principal,
premium, if any, sinking funds and interest on any Senior Debt has been made or duly provided for in cash or cash equivalents in
accordance with the terms of such Senior Debt. No payment on account of principal, premium, if any, sinking funds or interest on
the Securities shall be made if, at the time of such payment or immediately after giving effect thereto, (i) there shall exist
a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, sinking fund or interest with respect to any Senior Debt, or (ii) there
shall have occurred an event of default (other than a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, sinking funds or interest)
with respect to any Senior Debt, as defined therein or in the instrument under which the same is outstanding, permitting the holders
thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof and upon written notice thereof given to the Trustee, with a copy to the Company (the
delivery of which shall not affect the validity of the notice to the Trustee), and such event of default shall not have been cured
or waived or shall not have ceased to exist.

 

Section 14.03        Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior
Debt. 

 

From and after the payment in full of all Senior
Debt, the Holders of the Securities (together with the holders of any other indebtedness of the Company which is subordinate in
right of payment to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, which is not subordinate in right of payment to the Securities and
which by its terms grants such right of subrogation to the holder thereof) shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of assets or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Debt until the
Securities shall be paid in full, and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no such payments or distributions to the holders of
Senior Debt of assets or securities, which otherwise would have been payable or distributable to Holders of the Securities, shall,
as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be
a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Debt, it being understood that the provisions of this Article are and are
intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders
of the Senior Debt, on the other hand, and nothing contained in this Article is intended to or shall impair as between the Company,
its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is
unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of, premium, if any, sinking funds and interest,
if any, on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or to affect the relative
rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior Debt, nor shall anything
herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of a Security of any series from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted
by applicable law upon default hereunder with respect to the Securities of such series subject to the rights of the holders of
Senior Debt, under Section 14.02, to receive cash, property or securities of the Company otherwise payable or deliverable
to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities or to a representative of such Holders, on their behalf.

 

Section 14.04        Article Not to Prevent Event of Default.

 

Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere
in this Indenture or the Securities of any series shall prevent at any time the Company from making payments at any time of principal
of, premium, if any, sinking funds or interest on the Securities, except under the conditions described in Section 14.02 or
during the pendency of any proceedings or sale referred to therein. The failure to make a payment on account of principal of, premium,
if any, sinking funds and interest by reason of any provision of this Article shall not be construed as preventing an Event of
Default under Section 5.01.

 

Section 14.05        Trustee to Effectuate Subordination; No Impairment
of Subordination 

 

Each Holder of a Security by its acceptance thereof,
whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment, authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action
as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provisions in this Article and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact
for any and all such purposes.

 

    	 	 45	 

     

    

No rights of any present or future holder of any
Senior Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure
to act on the part of the Company, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance
by the Company, with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such
holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

 

Without in any way limiting the generality of
the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to
the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing
the subordination provided in this Article or the obligations of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior Debt, do
any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Debt, or
otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Debt of any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior
Debt is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing
Senior Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain
from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

 

Section 14.06        Notice to Trustee. 

 

The Company shall give prompt written notice to
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the form of an Officers’ Certificate
of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment of money or distribution to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article, including,
not limited to, Sections 14.02, 14.03 and 14.04 hereof, or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged
with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment or distribution to or by the Trustee
in respect of the Securities otherwise required to be made pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or the Securities, unless and
until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee written notice thereof
from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Debt or from any trustee therefor; and, prior to the receipt of any such written
notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee
shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the
terms hereof any cash, property or securities may become payable or distributable for any purposes (including, without limitation,
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, sinking funds or interest on any Security), then, notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive and to apply monies, securities or other property received
by it for any such payment or distribution to the purpose for which they were received and shall not be affected by any notice
to the contrary which may have been received by it within such three Business Days prior to such date.

 

The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery
to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee on behalf of such holder)
to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee on behalf of any such holder). In the event
that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder
of Senior Debt to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish
evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, the extent to which
such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person
under the Article, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment or distribution to such Person pending
judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment or distribution.

 

Section 14.07        Reliance on Certificate of Liquidating Agent.

 

Upon any payment or distribution referred to in
this Article, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any
court of competent jurisdiction in which a dissolution, winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization of the Company
is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of
creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities,
for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other
indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other
facts pertinent thereto or to this Article.

Section 14.08        Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior
Debt. 

 

With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the
Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture,
and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any
such holders if it shall in the absence of bad faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of the Securities of any series
or to the Company or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by
virtue of this Article or otherwise.

 

Section 14.09        Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt.

 

The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Debt which may at any time be held by it, to the
same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in Section 313 of the Trust Indenture Act or Section 611
or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

 

Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims
of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 5.06 or Section 6.07.

 

Section 14.10        Article Applicable to Paying Agent.

 

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than
the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this
Article shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying
Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to
or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that this Section shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company
if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

 

Section 14.11        Trust Moneys Not Subordinated. 

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, payments from moneys or the proceeds of U.S. Government Obligations held in trust under Article Four or Thirteen by the
Trustee for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities from the date of deposit (if made in compliance
with this Indenture) shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Debt or subject to the restraints set forth in
this Article, and none of the Holders shall be obligated to pay over any such amount to the Company or any holder of Senior Debt
of the Company or any other creditor of the Company.
