	Re:	Gigamon Inc. Board of Directors 

 Dear Paul: 

On behalf of Gigamon Inc. (“Gigamon”), we would like to extend the invitation to you to join Gigamon’s Board of Directors (the
“Board”). Once you accept this invitation, we anticipate the Board moving quickly to formally appoint you as a member of the Board at its next meeting in late January. 

As you are aware, Gigamon is a Delaware corporation and, therefore, your rights and duties as a Board member are prescribed by Delaware law and our charter
documents, as well as by the policies established by our Board from time to time and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”).
As you are aware, upon your formal appointment to the Board, you will become a Section 16 reporting person of Gigamon, too. You may also be requested to serve as a director of one or more of our subsidiaries in which case you may be subject to
other laws while serving in such a capacity. In addition, please note that, as a director, you will be subject to the corporate policies of Gigamon, including Gigamon’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Policy, External Communications Policy,
Anticorruption Compliance Policy and Insider Trading Policy. 
 The Board has established three standing committees – the Audit Committee, the
Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and from time to time, the Board may establish additional committees to which it may delegate certain duties. As a member of the Board, you will be asked to serve on one
or more of committees. In addition to committee meetings, which shall be convened as needed, our Board meetings are generally held quarterly at our corporate headquarters in Silicon Valley, and you would be expected to attend these meetings, as well
as any special meetings that may be scheduled from time to time. 
 You agree that you will hold in strictest confidence, and not use, except for the
benefit of Gigamon, or disclose to any person, firm, corporation or other entity, without written authorization of the Board, any non-public, confidential or proprietary information of Gigamon, except to the extent that such disclosure or use may be
required in direct connection with your duties as a member of the Board. It is expected that during the term of your Board membership you will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting or other business activity that competes with
the business in which Gigamon is now involved in or becomes involved in during the term of your service on the Board, nor will you engage in any other activities that conflict with your obligations to Gigamon. 

If you decide to join the Board, it will be recommended at the time of your election as a member of the Board that, in consideration for your service, the
Company grant you an option to purchase a number of shares equal to 0.106% of the Company’s then outstanding common shares (the “Initial Option”). The Initial Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of our 2013 Equity
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and our standard form of option agreements thereunder. The Initial Option shall vest annually over three years following your election to the Board, subject to your continued service through each vesting date.

 

 
  

 In addition, as a non-employee director of the Board, you would be entitled to receive the cash and equity
compensation for your service as set forth in Gigamon’s Outside Director Compensation Policy adopted April 25, 2013, as it may amended from time to time (the “Director Compensation Policy”), a copy of which has been provided to
you. Any cash compensation payable to you under the Director Compensation Policy for the current year will be pro-rated based on your length of service during the year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you would next be eligible for an equity grant
(in addition to the Initial Option mentioned above), at such time as the Company grants equity awards to all of its non-employee directors in accordance with the Director Compensation Policy. The Director Compensation Policy also provides for
reimbursement of reasonable, customary and documented travel expenses to Board meetings. 
 The payment of compensation to Board members is subject to many
restrictions under applicable law, and as such, you should be aware that the compensation set forth in the Directors Compensation Policy is subject to such future changes and modifications as the Board, or its appropriate committees, may deem
necessary or appropriate. In addition, please note that unless otherwise approved by our Board or required under applicable law, directors of our subsidiaries shall not be entitled to any compensation. 

Please note that nothing in this letter or any agreement granting you equity incentive awards under the Plan should be construed to interfere with or
otherwise restrict in any way the rights of Gigamon, its Board or stockholders from removing you from the Board or any committee in accordance with the provisions of applicable law. Furthermore, except as otherwise provided to other non-employee
Board members or required by law, Gigamon does not intend to afford you any rights as an employee, including without limitation, the right to further employment or any other benefits. 

We hope that you find the foregoing terms acceptable. You may indicate your agreement with these terms by signing and dating both the enclosed duplicate and
original letter and returning them to me. By signing this letter, you also represent that the execution and delivery of this agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof will not require the consent of another person, constitute a default under
or conflict with any agreement or other instrument to which you are bound or a party. In addition, we will need you to complete, sign and deliver a standard director questionnaire. 

We look forward to you joining, the Board, and we anticipate your leadership and experience will make a key contribution to our success at this critical time
in our growth and development. 
  

					
	Yours very truly,	 		 	Agreed this 11th day of Jan, 2014
			
	      /s/ Paul A. Hooper
	 		 	      /s/ Paul J. Milbury

provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not
earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the aforesaid manner shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the
English language, except that any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification is duly given if it is delivered in person or sent by a national courier service which provides next Business Day delivery or delivery by first-class
mail.

converted shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, or the place where the Conversion Agent is located in the case of a conversion of a Security (the “Place of Conversion”) then (notwithstanding any other provision of this
Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at
such Place of Payment on such date, or such conversion need not take place at such Place of Conversion, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment
Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity or the conversion date, PROVIDED that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

 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

authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating, 
 (a) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by
Section 2.1, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (b) if the terms of such
Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 

(c) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1
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 3.1 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. 

  
 24 

 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 3.9, 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 3.4 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. Such temporary Security may be in global form. 

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 upon Company Order 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 3.5
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. 
 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. 

  
 25 

 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 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 3.4, 9.6 or 11.7 not involving any transfer. 

The Company shall not be required (i) 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 11.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, (ii) 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 or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which
has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Book-Entry Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to this
Section 3.5 for Securities registered in the name of Persons other than the Depository for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Book-Entry Security or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order that such Book-Entry Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Securities. Any Book-Entry
Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as such Depository shall direct. 

  
 26 

 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, a
Book-Entry Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository with respect to such Book-Entry Security to a nominee of such Depository or by a nominee
of such Depository to such a Depository or another nominee of such Depository. 
 Section 3.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order 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 upon Company Order 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 lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security
shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all 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 3.7 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1 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. 

  
 27 

 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). 
 (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. 

(b) The provisions of this Section 3.7(b) may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 (with such
modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 3.1). 

  
 28 

 The interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if
applicable) on any Security of such series may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face of such Security (each an “Optional Reset Date”). The Company may exercise such option with respect to such Security by
notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to an Optional Reset Date for such Note, which such notice shall contain such information as may be required by the Trustee to transmit the Reset Notice as
hereinafter defined). Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, to the Holder of any such Security a notice (the “Reset Notice”) indicating whether
the Company has elected to reset the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable), and if so (i) such new interest rate (or such new spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) and
(ii) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date or if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity Date of such Security (each such period a
“Subsequent Interest Period”), including the date or dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Subsequent Interest Period. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest
rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice and establish an interest rate (or a spread or spread multiplier used to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) that
is higher than the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) provided for in the Reset Notice, for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, notice of
such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable) to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the interest rate (or the spread or spread multiplier used
to calculate such interest rate, if applicable) is reset on an Optional Reset Date, and with respect to which the Holders of such Securities have not tendered such Securities for repayment (or have validly revoked any such tender) pursuant to the
next succeeding paragraph, will bear such higher interest rate (or such higher spread or spread multiplier, if applicable). 
 The Holder of
any such Security will have the option to elect repayment by the Company of the principal of such Security on each Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus interest accrued to such Optional Reset Date. In order to
obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Fourteen for repayment at the option of Holders except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not
more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to the Reset Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender or repayment until the
close of business on the tenth day before such Optional Reset Date. 
 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. 

  
 29 

 Section 3.8 Optional Extension of Stated Maturity. 

The provisions of this Section 3.8 may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 (with such
modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 3.1). The Stated Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the Company for the period or periods specified on the face of such
Security (each an “Extension Period”) up to but not beyond the date (the “Final Maturity”) set forth on the face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with respect to any Security by notifying the Trustee of such
exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the “Original Stated Maturity”). If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee shall transmit,
in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity a notice (the “Extension Notice”) indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the
Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate, if any, applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustee’s transmittal of
the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of
such Extension Notice. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the
Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.6, notice of
such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. 
 All Securities with respect to which the
Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher interest rate. 
 If the Company extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder will
have the option to elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated Maturity
once the Company has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Fourteen for repayment at the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25
but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by written notice to the Trustee revoke such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity. 
 Section 3.9 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 3.7) 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. 

  
 30 

 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Security Registrar or any Conversion
Agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to
such beneficial ownership interests. 
 Section 3.10 Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer, conversion 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 as directed by a Company Order. 
 Section 3.11
Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 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 3.12 CUSIP Numbers 
 The Company in
issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) in addition to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee shall use such “CUSIP” numbers in addition to serial numbers in any notices 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the serial or other
identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such “CUSIP” numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 ARTICLE IV 
 Satisfaction and
Discharge 
 Section 4.1 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

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

  
 31 

 (1) either 

(A) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or
stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.6 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company
or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation 

(i) have become due and payable, or 

(ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(iii) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 
 and the
Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable), or to their Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be, together
with irrevocable instructions from the Company directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; provided that upon any redemption that requires the payment of an amount
of premium that will be calculated as of a date following the date of the notice of redemption and such deposit, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for purposes of this Section 4.1 to the extent that an amount is deposited with the
Trustee equal to the premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any deficit on the date of redemption (any such amount, the “Premium Deficit”) only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date
of redemption (it being understood that any defeasance shall be subject to the condition subsequent that such deficit is in fact paid). Any Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously
with the deposit of such Premium Deficit that confirms that such Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption. 

  
 32 

 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder
by the Company or has made arrangements for any such payment satisfactory to the payee; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered
to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.7, the
obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under
Section 4.2 and the last paragraph of Section 10.3 shall survive. 
 Section 4.2 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be
held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Persons entitled
thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE V

of Securities other than that series), and 

  
 33 

 
continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after the giving of written notice to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 

(5) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company

petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar
official of the Company or of all or substantially all of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for
a period of 60 consecutive days; or 
 (6) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any

 (7) default under any indenture or instrument under which the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary has at the time outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money or guarantees thereof in any individual instance in excess of $100,000,000 and, if not already matured in accordance with its terms, such indebtedness has been
accelerated and such acceleration is not rescinded or annulled within 60 days after notice thereof has been given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of
outstanding Securities of such series; provided that, if, prior to the entry of judgment in favor of the Trustee for payment of the Indenture Securities of such series, the default under such indenture or instrument has been remedied or cured by the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, or waived by the holders of such indebtedness, then the Event of Default under the Indenture will be deemed likewise to have been remedied, cured or waived; or 

  
 34 

 (8) any event which constitutes an “Event of Default” under the terms
governing Securities of that series established as provided in Section 3.1. 
 Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 5.1(5) and 5.1(6)) 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. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 5.1(5) and 5.1(6) with
respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the
terms thereof) and any accrued interest of all the Securities of that series shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, 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) all unpaid 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 on such unpaid (and premium, if any) 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; 

  
 35 

 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 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits For Enforcement By Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if 

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest (or premium, if any) 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 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. 
 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 most effectual to protect and enforce any such
rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 5.4 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 6.7. 

  
 36 

 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. 
 Section 5.5 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 5.6 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 6.7; 

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: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. 

Section 5.7 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 

(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; 

  
 37 

 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity
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 5.8 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 3.7) any interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or 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 5.9 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 3.6, 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. 

  
 38 

 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. 
 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 (a) be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, (b) be unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of any Securities of such series or (c) expose the Trustee to personal liability, and 

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

Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 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,

power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 ARTICLE VI

foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if
it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture
relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Article. 

Section 6.2 Notice of Defaults. 
 Within 90

payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or
Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and provided further that in the case of any default or breach of the character
specified in Section 5.1(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof.

 (j) to
the extent the Trustee is also acting in the capacity of Paying Agent or Securities Registrar or any other capacity under the Indenture, the rights, privileges, protections, benefits, immunities, and indemnities afforded to the Trustee pursuant to
this Article shall also be afforded to such Person acting in such capacities; 
 (k) the Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be

Section 6.7 Compensation and Reimbursement. 

The Company agrees: 

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which

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

all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of, or premium or interest on the Securities. 

Any compensation or expense incurred by the Trustee after a default specified by Section 5.1(5) or (6) is intended to constitute an expense of
administration under any then applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law. 
 The Company’s obligations under this Section 6.7 and any claim arising
hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of any Trustee, the satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s obligations pursuant to Article XIII and any rejection or termination under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy,

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and
has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section,
the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 
 Section 6.10
Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. 

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If
the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (c) The Trustee may be removed at
any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 

(d) If at any time: 

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.8 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under
Section 6.9 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or 
 (3) the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs
for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

  
 44 

 then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all
Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall
resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be
only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy,
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor
Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent
supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by
Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.6. Each notice
shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 6.11 Acceptance of Appointment By Successor. 

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

  
 45 

 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall
accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with
respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary
or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring
Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or
in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or
trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such
successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such
successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect
to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) and (b) of this Section,
as the case may be. 
 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee
shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 Section 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

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

  
 46 

 Section 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject
to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). 
 Section 6.14
Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of
Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.6, and
Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and
delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State
thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating
Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such
Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any corporation into which an
Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the
corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions 

  
 47 

 
of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor
Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Company agrees to pay to each
Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. 
 If an appointment with respect to one
or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 

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

ARTICLE X 
 Covenants 

Section 10.1 Payment of Principal, Premium And Interest. 

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any
premium and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. 
 Section 10.2 Maintenance of
Office or Agency. 
 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of
that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and
this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency
or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Officer of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to
receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

  
 55 

 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the
Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of
its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the
location of any such other office or agency. 
 Section 10.3 Money for Securities Payments To Be Held In Trust. 

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, 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 (i) comply with the provisions of the
Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (ii) 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, and 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 

  
 56 

 
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, New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be
repaid to the Company. 
 Section 10.4 Statement as to Compliance 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 150 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, commencing with its fiscal year
ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate from its principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of the compliance by the Company with all conditions and covenants under
this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 10.4, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture. 

Section 10.5 Existence. 
 Subject to Article
Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any
such right or franchise if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 

Section 10.6 Limitations on Liens. 
 The
Company covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, issue or assume any Indebtedness secured by any Lien on any Principal Property, or on shares of stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted
Subsidiary (“Restricted Securities”), without making effective provision for the Outstanding Securities (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series) to be secured by the Lien equally and
ratably with (or prior to) any and all Indebtedness and obligations secured or to be secured thereby for so long as such Indebtedness is so secured, except that the foregoing restriction will not apply to: 

(1) Any Lien existing on the date of the Indenture. 

(2) Any Lien on any Principal Property or Restricted Securities of any Person existing at the time such Person is merged or
consolidated with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (3) Any
Lien on any Principal Property existing at the time of acquisition of such Principal Property by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether or not assumed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, provided that no such Lien may extend to
any other Principal Property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. 

  
 57 

 (4) Any Lien on any Principal Property (including any improvements on an existing
Principal Property) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and any Lien on the Capital Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary that was formed or is held for the purpose of acquiring and holding such Principal Property, in each case to secure all
or any part of the cost of acquisition, development, operation, construction, alteration, repair or improvement of all or any part of such Principal Property (or to secure Indebtedness incurred by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for the
purpose of financing all or any part of such cost); provided that such Lien is created prior to, at the time of, or within 12 months after the latest of, the acquisition, completion of construction or improvement or commencement of commercial
operation of such Principal Property and provided, further, that no such Lien may extend to any other Principal Property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, other than any theretofore unimproved real property on which the Principal Property
is so constructed or developed or the improvement is located. 
 (5) Any Lien on any Principal Property or Restricted
Securities to secure Indebtedness owing to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (6) Any Lien in favor of
governmental bodies to secure advances or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure Indebtedness incurred to finance the purchase price or cost of constructing or improving the property subject to such Lien.

(9) Liens (other than Liens imposed by ERISA) on the property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurred, or
pledges or deposits required, in connection with workmen’s compensation, unemployment insurance and other social security legislation. 

(10) Liens securing taxes that remain payable without penalty or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings where collection thereof is stayed; provided that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has set aside on its books reserves with respect to such taxes (segregated to the extent required by U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles) deemed by it to be adequate. 

  
 58 

 (11) Any right which any municipal or governmental body or agency may have by
virtue of any franchise, license or contract to purchase or designate a purchaser of, or order the sale of, any property of the Company upon payment of reasonable compensation therefor or to terminate any franchise, license or other rights or to
regulate the property and business of the Company. 
 (12) Any Liens, neither assumed by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary or on which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary customarily pays interest, existing upon real estate or rights in or relating to real estate acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary for sub-station, measuring station,

Sale and Leaseback Transactions (not including Attributable Debt in respect of any such Sale and Leaseback Transactions described in clause (iii) or (iv) of Section 10.7) would not then exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

 Section 10.7 Limitation on Sales and Leasebacks. 

The Company covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback
Transaction unless (i) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled, without securing the Outstanding Securities, to incur Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the Principal Property that is the subject of such Sale and Leaseback

Section 10.8 Waiver of Certain Covenants. 

The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 10.6 to 10.7, inclusive,
with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in
such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become
effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

Section 10.9 Notice of Event of Default 

The Company, within 30 days of becoming aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, shall give written notice to the Trustee

otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. 
 Section 11.2 Election to
Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. The Company
shall, at least 35 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. 

  
 60 

 Section 11.3 Selection By Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless 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 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by random lot. 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 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of
such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 The Trustee shall
promptly notify the 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 11.4 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, and 

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

  
 61

by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 Section 11.5 Deposit of Redemption
Price. 
 No later than one Business Day prior to any Redemption Date, 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 10.3) 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 11.6 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 3.1, 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 Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7. 
 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 11.7 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. If a Book-Entry Security is so surrendered, such new Security so issued shall be a new Book-Entry Security. 

  
 62 

 ARTICLE XII 

Conversion 
 Section 12.1 Conversion. 

If the Board Resolution establishing the terms of a series of Securities so provides, Securities of any series may be convertible at the option
of the Holders or otherwise into or for Common Stock or other equity or debt securities (a “Conversion Right”). The Board Resolution may establish, among other things, the Conversion Rate, provisions for adjustments to the Conversion Rate
and limitations upon exercise of the Conversion Right. 
 Unless the Board Resolution otherwise provides, a Holder may convert a portion of
a Security if the portion is $2,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the conversion of the aggregate principal amount of a Security also apply to conversion of a portion of it. 

The Board Resolution providing for Securities with a Conversion Right may establish any terms in addition to, or other than (including terms
inconsistent with), those set forth in this Article Twelve with respect to the conversion of the Securities established thereby. 
 Section 12.2
Conversion Procedure. 
 To convert a Security a Holder must satisfy all applicable requirements in the Securities or the Board Resolution
and, if required, (i) complete and manually sign the conversion notice (the “Conversion Notice”) provided for in the Board Resolution or the Security (or complete and manually sign a facsimile thereof) and deliver such notice to the
Conversion Agent or any other office or agency maintained for such purpose, (ii) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent or at such other office or agency by physical delivery, (iii) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents, and (iv) pay all transfer or similar taxes. The date on which such notice shall have been received by and the Security shall have been so surrendered to the Conversion Agent is the “Conversion Date.” Such Conversion Notice
shall be irrevocable and may not be withdrawn by a Holder for any reason. 
 The Company will complete settlement of any conversion of
Securities not later than the fifth Business Day following the Conversion Date in respect of the cash portion elected to be delivered in lieu of the securities into which the Security is convertible and not later than the seventh Business Day
following the Conversion Date in respect of the portion to be settled in such securities. 
 If any Security is converted between the
Regular Record Date for the payment of interest and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, such Security must be accompanied by funds equal to the interest payable on such succeeding Interest Payment Date on the principal amount so converted
(unless such Security shall have been called for redemption during such period, in which case no such payment shall be required). A Security converted on an Interest Payment Date need not be accompanied by any payment, and the interest on the
principal amount of the Security being converted will be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the registered holder of such Security on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. Subject to the aforesaid right of the registered holder to
receive interest, no payment or adjustment will be made on conversion for interest accrued on the converted Security or for interest, dividends or other distributions payable on any security issued on conversion. 

  
 63 

 If a Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the securities into which the
Security is convertible which are issuable upon such conversion or the cash payable upon the conversion shall be based on the total principal amount of the Securities converted. 

Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate for the Holder a new
Security of the same series equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered; except that if a Security in global form is so surrendered the Trustee shall authenticate and, if applicable, deliver to the depository a
new a Security in global form of the same series in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unconverted portion of the principal of the Security in global form so surrendered. 

If the last day on which a Security may be converted is not a Business Day in a place where a Conversion Agent is located, the Security may be
surrendered to that Conversion Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. 
 Section 12.3 Taxes on Conversion. 

If a Holder of a Security exercises a Conversion Right, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on
the issue of the securities into which the Security is convertible upon the conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because securities or other property are issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. Nothing
herein shall preclude any income tax or other withholding required by law or regulations. 
 Section 12.4 Company Determination Final. 

Any determination that the Board of Directors makes pursuant to this Article Twelve or consistent with terms provided for in any Board
Resolution is conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 Section 12.5 Trustee’s and Conversion Agent’s Disclaimer. 

The Trustee (and each Conversion Agent other than the Company) has no duty to determine when or if an adjustment under this Article Twelve or
any Board Resolution should be made, how it should be made or calculated or what it should be. The Trustee (and each Conversion Agent other than the Company) makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities issued upon
conversion of Securities. The Trustee (and each Conversion Agent other than the Company) shall not be responsible for the Company’s failure to comply with this Article Twelve or any provision of a Board Resolution relating to a Conversion
Right. 

  
 64 

 Section 12.6 Company to Provide Conversion Securities. 

The Company shall reserve out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock or its Common Stock held in treasury sufficient shares to permit the
conversion of all of the Securities convertible into Common Stock. The Company shall arrange and make available for issuance upon conversion the full amount of any other securities into which the Securities are convertible to permit such conversion
of the Securities. 
 All shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of any person which may be issued upon conversion of the
Securities shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. 
 The Company will comply with all securities laws regulating the offer
and delivery of securities upon conversion of Securities. 
 Section 12.7 Cash Settlement Option 

If the Board Resolution so provides, the Company may elect to satisfy, in whole or in part, a Conversion Right of Securities convertible into
Common Stock or other securities of any person by the delivery of cash. Except as the Board Resolution so provides: (a) the amount of cash to be delivered shall be equal to the Market Price on the last Trading Day preceding the applicable
Conversion Date of a share of Common Stock or other securities of any person into which the Securities are convertible multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock or the number of shares or principal amount of other securities into which the
Securities are convertible, respectively, in respect of which the Company elects to deliver cash; (b) if the Company elects to satisfy, in whole or in part, a Conversion Right by the delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities, no
fractional shares or portion of other securities will be delivered. Instead, the Company will pay cash based on the Market Price for such fractional share of Common Stock or portion of other securities; and (c) the “Market Price” of
the Common Stock into which Securities or other equity securities into which the Securities are convertible may be converted pursuant to a Board Resolution or this Article Twelve on any Trading Day means the weighted average per share sale price for
all sales of the Common Stock or other equity securities on such Trading Day (or, if the information necessary to calculate such weighted average per share sale price is not reported, the average of the high and low sale prices, or if no sales are
reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average bid and average ask prices), as reported in the composite transactions for the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Stock or other
equity securities into which the Securities are convertible are not listed or admitted to trading on such exchange, as reported in the composite transactions for the principal national or regional United States securities exchange on which the
Common Stock or other equity securities into which the Securities are convertible are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Common Stock or other equity securities into which the Securities are convertible are not listed or admitted to trading on
a United States national or regional securities exchange, as reported by NASDAQ or by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated, or if not so reported, as determined in the manner set forth in the appropriate Board Resolution. In the absence of
such quotations, the Company shall be entitled to determine the Market Price on the basis of such quotations as it considers appropriate.

 The “Market Price” of any debt security into which Securities are convertible shall be
determined as set forth in the applicable Board Resolution. 
 ARTICLE XIII 

Sinking Funds 
 Section 13.1 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 3.1 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 13.2. 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 13.2
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 13.3 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 13.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 45 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 11.3 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 11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.6 and 11.7.

 ARTICLE XIV 

Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance 

Section 14.1 Applicability of Article; Company’s Option To Effect Defeasance Or Covenant Defeasance. 

If pursuant to Section 3.1 provision is made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of a series under
Section 14.2 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of a series under Section 14.3, then the provisions of such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of this Article Thirteen, shall be
applicable to the Securities of such series, and the Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to the Securities of such series, elect to have either Section 14.2 (if applicable) or Section 14.3 (if
applicable) be applied to the Outstanding Securities of such series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen. 

Section 14.2 Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series on and after the date the conditions precedent set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “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 such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are
concerned (and the Trustee, at the request and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged thereunder: (A) the rights of
Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 13.4 as more fully set forth in such Section, payments of the principal of (and premium and interest, if any, on) such Securities when
such payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 10.2 and 10.3 and such obligations as shall be ancillary thereto, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties, immunities
and other provisions in respect of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article Thirteen. Subject to compliance with this Article Thirteen, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 14.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its
option under Section 13.3 with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 Section 14.3 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section, the Company shall be released from its obligations under
Sections 8.1, 10.6 and 10.7 (and any covenant applicable to such Securities that are determined pursuant to Section 3.1 to be subject to this provision) and the occurrence of an event specified in Section 5.1(4) (with respect to any of
Sections 8.1, 10.6 or 10.7) (and any other Event of Default applicable to such Securities that 

  
 67 

 
are determined pursuant to Section 3.1 to be subject to this provision) shall not be deemed to be an Event of Default with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series on and after
the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”). For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series, the Company may omit to
comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or clause whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or clause or by reason of
any reference in any such Section or clause to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 

Section 14.4 Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The following shall be the conditions precedent to application of either Section 14.2 or Section 14.3 to the Outstanding Securities
of such series: 
 (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another
trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.9 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen 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 such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which 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, sufficient, without reinvestment, 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 other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of (and premium, if any, and
interest, on) the Outstanding Securities of such series on the Maturity of such principal, or premium and interest, if any. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a
future date or dates in accordance with Article Eleven, which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United
States of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y) obligations 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, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank
(as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such
custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount
received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depositary receipt. 

  
 68 

 (2) No Event of Default or event (other than that resulting from borrowing funds
to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and, in each case the granting of Liens in connection therewith) which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default
with respect to the Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing (A) on the date of such deposit or (B) insofar as clauses (5) and (6) of Section 5.1 are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the
91st day after the date of such deposit or, if longer, ending on the day following the expiration of the longest preference period applicable to the Company in respect of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
satisfied until the expiration of such period). 
 (3) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance (in each case other than that
resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness, and, in each case the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall not result in a breach or violation of,
or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 

(4) In the case of an election under Section 14.2, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
stating that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case
to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be
subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred. 

(5) In the case of an election under Section 14.3, 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 income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred. 

(6) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional terms, conditions or limitations
which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.1. 

  
 69 

 (7) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance under Section 13.2 or the covenant defeasance under Section 13.3 (as the case may be) have been complied with. 

Section 14.5 Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held In Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee - collectively, for purposes of this Section 13.5, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 13.4 in respect of the Outstanding
Securities of such series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (but not including the Company acting
as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest, but such money 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 money or
U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 13.4 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof. 
 Anything
herein 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 13.4 which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant
defeasance. 
 Section 14.6 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 14.2 or 14.3 by reason of any order or judgment
or any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under the Securities of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to this Article Thirteen until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 14.2 or 14.3; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (and
premium, if any) or interest on any such Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the
Paying Agent. 
 This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
