specified terms (such as interest rate, maturity date, record date or date from which interest
shall accrue) are to be determined.

used to determine such rate or rates (including, but not limited to, any commodity, commodity
index, stock exchange index or financial index) at which the Securities of the Series shall bear
interest, if any, the date or dates from which such interest, if any, shall accrue, the date or
dates on which such interest, if any, shall commence and be payable and any regular record date for

which Securities of the Series shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to
such obligation;

-8-

 

          (i) the dates, if any, on which and the price or prices at which the Securities of the Series
will be repurchased by the Company at the option of the Holders thereof and other detailed terms
and provisions of such repurchase obligations;

in which the Securities of the Series shall be issuable;

          (k) if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal amount of the
Securities of the Series that shall be payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity
thereof pursuant to Section 6.02;

          (l) the currency of denomination of the Securities of the Series, which may be Dollars or any

currency;

          (m) the provisions, if any, relating to any security provided for the Securities of the
Series;

          (n) any addition to or change in the Events of Default which applies to any Securities of the

          (s) any other terms of the Securities of the Series (which may modify or delete any provision
of this Indenture insofar as it applies to such Series).

     All Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from
time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the
Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate referred to above, and,
unless otherwise provided in such Board Resolution, a Series may be reopened, without the consent
of the Holders, for increases in the aggregate principal amount of such Series and issuances of
additional Securities of such Series.

-9-

 

     SECTION 2.03. EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION.

  Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company
by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds
that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid. A
Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an
authenticating agent. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been
authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time,
authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board
Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of
a Company Order. Such Company Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or
electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral
instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication unless otherwise provided by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or
an Officers’ Certificate. The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding
at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series set forth in
the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 2.02, except as provided in Section 2.02 or 2.08. Prior to the issuance of Securities of
any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.02) shall be fully protected
in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate
establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series and the
terms of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series, (b) an Officers’
Certificate complying with Section 10.04 and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section
10.04. The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of
such Series: (a) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not be
taken lawfully; or (b) if the Trustee’s by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee
or a trust committee of directors and/or vice-presidents shall determine in good faith that such
action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Series of
Securities. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to
authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee
may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes
authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with
the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.

     SECTION 2.04. REGISTRAR AND PAYING AGENT.

  The Company shall maintain, with respect to each Series
of Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section
2.02, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for
payment (“Paying Agent”), where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect
of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture may be served (“Service Agent”). The Registrar
shall keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and to their transfer and exchange.
The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address, and any change
in the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent. If at any time the
Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent or shall
fail to furnish the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such presentations,

-10-

 

surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee,
and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. The Company may also from time to time designate one or more
co-registrars, additional paying agents or additional service agents 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 obligations to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Service
Agent in each place so specified pursuant to Section 2.02 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 name or address of any such co-registrar, additional paying
agent or additional service agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term
“Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Service Agent” includes any
additional service agent. The Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying
Agent and Service Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent, as
the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued.

     SECTION 2.05. PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST.

  The Company shall require each Paying Agent
other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the
benefit of Holders of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent
for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series of Securities, and will notify the
Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default
continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The
Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon
payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit
of Holders of any Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent.

     SECTION 2.06. HOLDER LISTS.

  The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each
Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the
Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten (10) days before each interest
payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list, in such form and
as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Holders of
each Series of Securities.

     SECTION 2.07. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

  Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar
or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal
amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the
exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers
and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service
charge shall be made for any

-11-

 

registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental
charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental
charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06 or 9.06). Neither the Company nor
the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of
any Series for the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding
the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for redemption and
ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register the transfer of or
exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the
portion being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in
part.

     SECTION 2.08. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES.

          (a) If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery 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 hold 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
protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate
and make available for delivery, 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.

          (b) 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 2.09. OUTSTANDING SECURITIES.

  The Securities outstanding at any time are all the
Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for
cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions hereof and those

-12-

 

described in this Section as not outstanding. If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08,
it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced
Security is held by a protected purchaser. If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a
Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a
Series money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date
such Securities of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. A
Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds
the Security. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding
Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver
hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for
such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the
date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to
Section 6.02.

     SECTION 2.10. TREASURY SECURITIES.

  In determining whether the Holders of the required principal
amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Company shall be disregarded, except
that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities of a Series
that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

     SECTION 2.11. TEMPORARY SECURITIES.

  Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the
Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon a Company Order.
Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have
variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable
delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee upon request shall authenticate definitive
Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so
exchanged, temporary securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive
Securities.

     SECTION 2.12. CANCELLATION.

  The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for
cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities
surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel
all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or
cancellation in accordance with its customary procedures and deliver such canceled Securities to
the Company, unless the Company otherwise directs; provided that the Trustee shall not be required
to destroy Securities. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has
paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

     SECTION 2.13. DEFAULTED INTEREST.

  If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of
Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest
payable on the defaulted

-13-

 

interest, to the persons who are Holders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The
Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least ten (10) days before the record date,
the Company shall mail to the Trustee and to each Holder of the Series a notice that states the
record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted
interest in any other lawful manner.

     SECTION 2.14. GLOBAL SECURITIES.

          (a) Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’
Certificate shall establish whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part
in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depository for such Global Security or
Securities.

          (b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in
Section 2.07 of the Indenture and in addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable
pursuant to Section 2.07 of the Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders 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 Global Security or if at
any time such Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in
either case, the Company fails to appoint a successor Depository registered as a clearing agency
under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable
or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security
shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depository
shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global Security with like tenor and terms.

          (c) Except as provided in this Section 2.14(c), a Global Security may not be transferred
except as a whole by the Depository with respect to such Global Security to a nominee of such
Depository, by a nominee of such Depository to such Depository or another nominee of such
Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such
a successor Depository.

          (d) Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the
following form:

          “This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter
referred to and is registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. This
Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a person other than the
Depository or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not
be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, by a nominee of
the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any
such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such a successor Depository.”

-14-

 

          (e) Acts of Holders. The Depository, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize
participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.

          (f) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 2.02, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any
Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof.

          (g) Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section 2.14(g), the Company,
the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a person as the Holder of such principal amount of
outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a
written statement of the Depository with respect to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining
any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to
this Indenture.

          (h) The Depository or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the
Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture and the Securities, and owners
of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable
Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security will be shown
only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by
the Depository or its nominee and such owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security will not
be considered the owners or holders thereof.

     SECTION 2.15. CUSIP NUMBERS.

  The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if
then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made
as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any
notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification
printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in “CUSIP”
numbers of which the Company becomes aware.

ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION

     SECTION 3.01. NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

  The Company may, with respect to any Series of Securities,
reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or may covenant to redeem and pay the
Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on
such terms as provided for in such Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the
Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the
Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify the Trustee of the
redemption date and the principal amount of Series of Securities to be redeemed.

-15-

 

     SECTION 3.02. SELECTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED.

  Unless otherwise indicated for a particular
Series by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, if less than
all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities of the
Series to be redeemed in any manner that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall
make the selection from Securities of the Series outstanding not previously called for redemption.
The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities of the Series that
have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities of the Series and portions of them it selects
shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 or, with respect to Securities of any
Series issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.02(j), the minimum principal
denomination for each Series and integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that
apply to Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities of that
Series called for redemption.

     SECTION 3.03. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

          (a) Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental
indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a
redemption date, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder
whose Securities are to be redeemed and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish on one
occasion a notice in an Authorized Newspaper. The notice shall identify the Securities of the
Series to be redeemed and shall state:

               (i) the redemption date;

               (ii) the redemption price;

               (v) that interest on Securities of the Series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and
after the redemption date;

               (vi) the CUSIP number, if any; and

               (vii) any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the
Securities of a Series being redeemed.

name and at the Company’s expense.

     SECTION 3.04. EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION.

-16-

 

  Once notice of redemption is mailed or published as provided in Section 3.03, Securities of a
Series called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption
price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such
Securities shall be paid at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the redemption date;
provided that 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 at the close of business on the relevant record date therefor according to their terms
and the terms of this Indenture.

maturity equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

     SECTION 6.01. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

     “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any Series, means any
one of the following events, unless in the establishing Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or
Officers’ Certificate, it is provided that such Series shall not have the benefit of said Event of
Default:

          (a) default in the payment of any interest on any Security of that Series when it becomes due
and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of

expiration of such period of 30 days);

          (b) default in the payment of principal of any Security of that Series at its Maturity;

          (c) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this
Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty for which the consequences of nonperformance or breach
are addressed elsewhere in this Section 6.01 and other than a covenant or warranty that has been
included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a Series of Securities other than that
Series), which default continues uncured for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by
registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by
the Holders of not less than a majority 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;

          (d) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

               (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

               (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case;

               (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of its property; or

               (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in
effect for 90 days; or

          (f) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that Series, which is

     The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11 of the U.S. Code or any similar federal or state law
for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator
or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

     SECTION 6.02. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

  If an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of any Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an
Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(d) or (e)), then in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that
Series may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities of that Series are Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such
Securities) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on 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) and accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.1(d) or (e) shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities shall ipso facto become and be
immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to 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 all Events of Default with respect to
Securities of that Series, other than the non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of
Securities of that Series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have
been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     SECTION 6.03. COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

-20-

 

     The Company covenants that if:

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

          (b) default is made in the payment of principal of any Security at the Maturity thereof, then
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 interest
and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any
overdue principal and any overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Securities and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

     If an Event of Default with respect to any 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 6.04. TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

  In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the
property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of
whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the
Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of
principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers
or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (b) 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

-21-

 

compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any
other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. Nothing herein contained 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 6.05. TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES.

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

     SECTION 6.06. APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED.

     Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following
order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on
account of principal or 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 7.07;

     Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of 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 interest, respectively; and

     Third: To the Company.

     SECTION 6.07. LIMITATION ON SUITS. No Holder of any Security of any Series shall have any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

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

          (b) the Holders of at least a majority 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;

-22-

 

          (c) 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;

          (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

          (e) 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 such
Holders.

     SECTION 6.08. UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL 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 interest, if any, on such
Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on the redemption date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment,
and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

     SECTION 6.09. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

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

     SECTION 6.10. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

  Except as otherwise provided with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.08, 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, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     SECTION 6.11. DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER .

-23-

 

  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 6.12. 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:

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

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

          (c) subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

     SECTION 6.13. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

  The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Securities of any Series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of
such Series waive any past Default hereunder with respect to such Series and its consequences,
except a Default (i) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of such Series
(provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of any Series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related
payment default that resulted from such acceleration) or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision
hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding
Security of such Series affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this
Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

     SECTION 6.14. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

  All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any
Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or
in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the
filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that
such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply
to any suit instituted by the Company,

-24-

 

to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders,
holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any
Series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal
of or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in
such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date).

ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE

     SECTION 7.01. DUTIES OF TRUSTEE.

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

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

               (i) The Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this
Indenture and no others.

               (ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the
truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon Officers’
Certificates or Opinions of Counsel furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; however, in the case of any such Officers’ Certificates or Opinions of Counsel
which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall examine such Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to determine whether or
not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

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

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

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

               (iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to
be taken by it with respect to Securities of any Series in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such
Series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture
with respect to the Securities of such Series.

-25-

 

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

or direction of any Holder unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss,
liability or expense.

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

          (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties, 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 is not reasonably assured to it.

          (h) The Paying Agent, the Registrar and any Service Agent or authenticating agent shall be
entitled to the protections, immunities and standard of care as are set forth in paragraphs (a),
(b) and (c) of this Section with respect to the Trustee.

     SECTION 7.02. RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

          (a) The Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon
any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

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

          (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or
negligence of any agent appointed with due care. No Depository shall be deemed an agent of the
Trustee, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission by any Depository.

          (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith
which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that the Trustee’s
conduct does not constitute negligence or bad faith.

          (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it hereunder without negligence and in good faith and in reliance thereon.

-26-

 

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

          (g) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document,
but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts
or matters as it may see fit.

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

          (i) The permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties.

     SECTION 7.03. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

  The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity
may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may
do the same with like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

     SECTION 7.04. TRUSTEE’S DISCLAIMER.

  The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or
adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of
the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the
Securities other than its authentication.

     SECTION 7.05. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

  If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with
respect to the Securities of any Series and if it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee,
the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of the Securities of that Series and, if any Bearer
Securities are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, notice of a Default
or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or
Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security of any Series, the Trustee
may withhold the notice if and so long as its corporate trust committee or a committee of its
Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of
Holders of that Series.

     SECTION 7.06. REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS.

-27-

 

  Within 60 days after [May 15] in each year, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders,
as their names and addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar and, if any Bearer
Securities are outstanding, publish in an Authorized Newspaper, a brief report dated as of such
[May 15], in accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA Section 313. A copy of each
report at the time of its mailing to Holders of any Series shall be filed with the SEC and each
stock exchange on which the Securities of that Series are listed. The Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee when Securities of any Series are listed on any stock exchange.

     SECTION 7.07. COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

  The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time
compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in
writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee
of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and
expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee and
any predecessor Trustee (including the cost of defending itself) against any loss, liability or
expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of
the Trustee) incurred by it except as set forth in this Section 7.07 in the performance of its
duties under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of
any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee
shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one separate counsel and the Company shall
pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement
made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification
shall apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee. The Company
need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee
or by any officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through the negligence
or bad faith of any such persons. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the
Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any Series on all money or property held or
collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular
Securities of that Series. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of
Default specified in Section 6.01(d) or (e) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the
services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. The
provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the
termination of this Indenture.

     SECTION 7.08. REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE.

  A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of
appointment as provided in this Section. The Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities of
one or more Series by so notifying the Company at least 30 days prior to the date of the proposed
resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may
remove the Trustee with respect to that Series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The
Company may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more Series if:

          (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

-28-

 

          (b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with
respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

          (c) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

          (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

     If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any
reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

     If a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or more Series does not take
office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Company or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of the
applicable Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

     A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring
Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee subject to the lien provided for in Section
7.07, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to each Series of
Securities for which it is acting as Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail
a notice of its succession to each Holder of each such Series and, if any Bearer Securities are
outstanding, publish such notice on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper. Notwithstanding
replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section
7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee with respect to expenses and
liabilities incurred by it prior to the date of such replacement.

     SECTION 7.09. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC.

  If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or
converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

     SECTION 7.10. ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

  This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who
satisfies the requirements of TIA Section 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee shall comply with
TIA Section 310(b).

     SECTION 7.11. PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY.

  The Trustee is subject to TIA
Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who
has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

become due and payable, or (2) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one
year, or (3) 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 has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds
in trust an amount sufficient for the purpose of paying and discharging the entire indebtedness on
such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and
interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable
on or prior to the date of such deposit) or to the Stated Maturity or redemption date, as the case
may be;

          (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company;
and

          (c) 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 7.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
clause (a) of this Section, the provisions of Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 8.01, 8.02 and 8.05
shall survive.

     SECTION 8.02. APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; INDEMNIFICATION.

deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.03 or 8.04 and all money received by the Trustee
in respect of U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 8.03 or 8.04, 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 (other than the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest for whose payment such
money has been deposited with or received by the Trustee or analogous payments as contemplated by
Sections 8.03 or 8.04.

          (b) The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge
imposed on or assessed against U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations
deposited pursuant to Sections 8.03 or 8.04 or the interest and principal received in respect of
such obligations other than any payable by or on behalf of Holders.

          (c) The Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any
U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money held by it as provided in
Sections 8.03 or 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee,
are then in excess of the amount thereof which then would have been required to be deposited for
the purpose for which such U.S. Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations or money
were deposited or received. This provision shall not authorize the sale by the Trustee of any U.S.
Government Obligations or Foreign Government Obligations held under this Indenture.

     SECTION 8.03. LEGAL DEFEASANCE OF SECURITIES OF ANY SERIES.

  Unless this Section 8.03 is otherwise
specified, pursuant to Section 2.02(s), to be inapplicable to Securities of any Series, the Company
shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness on all the outstanding
Securities of any Series on the 91st day after the date of the deposit referred to in subparagraph
(d) of this Section, and the provisions of this Indenture, as it relates to such outstanding
Securities of such Series, shall no longer be in effect (and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall, at Company Request, execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except as
to:

          (a) the rights of Holders of Securities of such Series to receive, from the trust funds
described in subparagraph (d) hereof, (i) payment of the principal of and each installment of
principal of and interest on the outstanding Securities of such Series on the Stated Maturity of
such principal or installment of principal or interest, and (ii) the benefit of any mandatory
sinking fund payments applicable to the Securities of such Series on the day on which such payments
are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities of such
Series; and

          (b) the provisions of Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 8.02, 8.03 and 8.05; and

          (d) with reference to this Section 8.03, the Company shall have deposited or caused to be
irrevocably deposited (except as provided in Section 8.02(c)) with the Trustee as trust funds in
trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for and
dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (i) in the case of Securities of
such Series denominated in Dollars, cash in Dollars and/or U.S. Government Obligations, or (ii) in
the case of Securities of such Series denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than a composite
currency), money and/or Foreign Government Obligations, which through the payment of interest and
principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide (and without reinvestment
and assuming no tax liability will be imposed on such Trustee), not later than one day before the
due date of any payment of money, an amount in cash, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal of and interest, if
any, on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of all the Securities of such Series on
the dates such installments of interest or principal and such sinking fund payments are due;

          (e) such deposit will 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;

          (f) no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall have
occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or during the period ending on the 91st day
after such date;

          (g) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there has
been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the Securities of such
Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such
deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts and
in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance
and discharge had not occurred;

          (h) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the
deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Securities of
such Series over any other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering,
delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company;

          (i) 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 the defeasance
contemplated by this Section have been complied with; and

          (j) such defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an
investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of

-32-

 

1940, as amended, unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from
registration thereunder.

     SECTION 8.04. COVENANT DEFEASANCE.

  Unless this Section 8.04 is otherwise specified, pursuant to
Section 2.02(s), to be inapplicable to Securities of any Series, on and after the 91st day after
the date of the deposit referred to in subparagraph (a) hereof, the Company may omit to comply with
respect to the Securities of any Series with any term, provision or condition set forth under
Sections 4.02, 4.03, and 5.01 as well as any additional covenants specified in a supplemental
indenture for such Series of Securities or a Board Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate delivered
pursuant to Section 2.02 (and the failure to comply with any such covenants shall not constitute a
Default or Event of Default with respect to such Series under Section 6.01) and the occurrence of
any event specified in a supplemental indenture for such Series of Securities or a Board Resolution
or an Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02 and designated as an Event of
Default shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default hereunder, with respect to the
Securities of such Series, provided that the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

          (a) with reference to this Section 8.04, the Company has deposited or caused to be irrevocably
deposited (except as provided in Section 8.02(c)) with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the
purpose of making the following payments specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely
to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities (i) in the case of Securities of such Series
denominated in Dollars, cash in Dollars and/or U.S. Government Obligations, or (ii) in the case of
Securities of such Series denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than a composite currency),
money and/or Foreign Government Obligations, which through the payment of interest and principal in
respect thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide (and without reinvestment and assuming
no tax liability will be imposed on such Trustee), not later than one day before the due date of
any payment of money, an amount in cash, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal of and interest, if any, on and
any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the Securities of such Series on the dates such
installments of interest or principal and such sinking fund payments are due;

          (b) such deposit will 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;

          (c) no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall have
occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or during the period ending on the 91st day
after such date;

          (d) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
Holders of the Securities of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income
tax purposes as a result of such deposit and 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 deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred;

-33-

 

          (e) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the covenant
defeasance contemplated by this Section have been complied with; and

          (f) Such defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an
investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, unless
such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder.

     SECTION 8.05. REPAYMENT TO COMPANY.

  The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon
written request any money held by them for the payment of principal and interest that remains
unclaimed for two years, and after such time, Holders entitled to the money must look to the
Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates
another person.

     SECTION 8.06. REINSTATEMENT.

  If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money
deposited with respect to Securities of any series in accordance with Section 8.01 by reason of any
legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Company
under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series and under the Securities of such
series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.01
until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 8.01; provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of
principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Additional Amounts with respect to any Securities
because of 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.

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

     SECTION 9.01. WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

  The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series without the consent of any Holder:

          (a) to evidence the succession of another person to the Company under this Indenture and the
Securities and the assumption by any such successor person of the obligations of the Company
hereunder and under the Securities;

          (b) to add or remove covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders of all or any
series of Securities (and if such covenants are to be for the benefit of less than all series of
Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being included for the benefit of such
series) or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company provided such action
does not adversely affect the interests of the Company;

-34-

 

          (c) to add any additional Events of Default;

          (d) to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be
necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities in bearer form, registrable or not
registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons, or to permit or facilitate the
issuance of Securities in uncertificated form;

          (e) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one
or more series of Securities, provided that any such addition, change or elimination (A) shall
neither (i) apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental
indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (ii) modify the rights of the Holder of
any such Security with respect to such provision or (B) shall become effective only when there is
no such Security Outstanding;

          (f) to establish the forms or terms of the Securities of any series issued pursuant to the
terms hereof;

          (g) to cure any ambiguity or correct any inconsistency in this Indenture;

          (h) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee

of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the
trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee;

          (i) to qualify this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

          (j) to provide for uncertificated securities in addition to certificated securities;

          (k) to supplement any provisions of this Indenture necessary to permit or facilitate the
defeasance and discharge of any series of Securities, provided that such action does not adversely
affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series or any other series; and

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

     SECTION 9.02. WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

  The Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental
indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series),
for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders of each such Series. Except as provided in Section 6.13, the Holders of at
least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series by notice to the
Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the
Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the Company with any provision of this

-35-

 

Indenture or the Securities with respect to such Series. It shall not be necessary for the consent
of the Holders of Securities under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
supplemental indenture or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance
thereof. After a supplemental indenture or waiver under this section becomes effective, the
Company shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby and, if any Bearer Securities
affected thereby are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice
briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail or
publish such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the
validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.

     SECTION 9.03. LIMITATIONS.

  Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may
not:

          (a) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or
waiver;

          (b) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest)
on any Security;

          (c) reduce the principal or change the Stated Maturity of any Security or reduce the amount
of, or postpone the date fixed for, the payment of any sinking fund or analogous obligation;

          (d) reduce the principal amount of Discount Securities payable upon acceleration of the
maturity thereof;

          (e) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest, if
any, on any Security (except a rescission of acceleration of the Securities of any Series by the
Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series and
a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

          (f) make the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other
than that stated in the Security;

          (g) make any change in Sections 6.08, 6.13, or 9.03; or

          (h) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Security.

     SECTION 9.04. COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

  Every amendment to this Indenture or the
Securities of one or more Series shall be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that
complies with the TIA as then in effect.

     SECTION 9.05. REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS.

  Until an amendment is set forth in a supplemental
indenture or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security is a continuing
consent by the Holder and every

-36-

 

subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the
consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion
of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date of the supplemental
indenture or the date the waiver becomes effective. Any amendment or waiver once effective shall
bind every Holder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is of the type
described in any of clauses (a) through (h) of Section 9.03. In that case, the amendment or waiver
shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a
Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security.

          SECTION 9.06. NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES.

     The Trustee may place an appropriate
notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series thereafter authenticated. The
Company in exchange for Securities of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon
request new Securities of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver.

          SECTION 9.07. TRUSTEE PROTECTED.

     In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the documents required
by Section 10.04, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures, except that the
Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights.

be mailed by first-class mail to his address shown on the register kept by the Registrar and, if

notice or communication to a Holder of any Series or any defect in it shall not affect its
sufficiency with respect to other Holders of that or any other Series. If a notice or
communication is mailed or published in the manner provided above, within the time prescribed, it
is duly given, whether or not the Holder receives it. If the Company mails a notice or
communication to Holders, it shall mail a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same time.

               (c) Any notice or demand that by any provision of this Indenture is required or permitted to
be given or served by the Company may, at the Company’s written request received by the Trustee not
fewer than five (5) Business Days prior (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the
Trustee) to the date on which such notice must be given or served, be given or served by the
Trustee in the name of and at the expense of the Company.

          SECTION 10.03. COMMUNICATION BY HOLDERS WITH OTHER HOLDERS.

     Holders of any Series may communicate
pursuant to TIA Section 312(b) with other Holders of that Series or any other Series with respect
to their rights under this Indenture or the Securities of that Series or all Series. The Company,
the Trustee, the Registrar and anyone else shall have the protection of TIA Section 312(c).

          SECTION 10.04. CERTIFICATE AND OPINION AS TO CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.

     Upon any request or
application by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company
shall furnish to the Trustee:

precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been
complied with; and

               (b) an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions

-38-

 

          SECTION 10.05. STATEMENTS REQUIRED IN CERTIFICATE OR OPINION.

     Each certificate or opinion with
respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a
certificate provided pursuant to TIA Section 314(a)(4)) shall comply with the provisions of TIA
Section 314(e) and shall include:

               (a) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or
condition;

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

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

               (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or

          SECTION 10.06. RULES BY TRUSTEE AND AGENTS.

     The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by
or a meeting of Holders of one or more Series. Any Agent may make reasonable rules and set
reasonable requirements for its functions.

          SECTION 10.07. LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

     Unless otherwise provided by Board Resolution, Officers’
Certificate or supplemental indenture hereto for a particular Series, a “Legal Holiday” is any day
that is not a Business Day. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment
may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest
shall accrue for the intervening period.

          SECTION 10.08. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.

     A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such,
of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities
or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver
and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

          SECTION 10.09. COUNTERPARTS.

     This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

          SECTION 10.10. GOVERNING LAWS.

-39-

 

     This Indenture and the Securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles that would
result in the application of any law other than the laws of the State of New York.

          SECTION 10.11. NO ADVERSE INTERPRETATION OF OTHER AGREEMENTS.

     This Indenture may not be used to
interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.
Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

          SECTION 10.12. SUCCESSORS.

     All agreements of the Company in this Indenture and the Securities
shall bind its successor. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its
successor.

          SECTION 10.13. SEVERABILITY.

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

          SECTION 10.14. TABLE OF CONTENTS, HEADINGS, ETC.

     The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table,
and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of
reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any
of the terms or provisions hereof.

          SECTION 10.15. SECURITIES IN A FOREIGN CURRENCY.

     Unless otherwise specified in a Board
Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 2.02 of this Indenture with respect to a particular Series of Securities, whenever for
purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in
aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series or all Series affected by a particular
action at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any Series
which are denominated in a coin or currency other than Dollars, then the principal amount of
Securities of such Series which shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of taking such
action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market
Exchange Rate at such time. For purposes of this Section 10.15, “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean
the noon Dollar buying rate in New York City for cable transfers of that currency as published by
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. If such Market Exchange Rate is not available for any reason
with respect to such currency, the Trustee shall use, in its sole discretion and without liability
on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of the most recent available
date, or quotations from one or more major banks in The City of New York or in the country of issue
of the currency in question or such other quotations as the Trustee, upon consultation with the
Company, shall deem appropriate. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the
equivalent principal amount in respect of Securities of a Series denominated in currency other than
Dollars in connection with any action taken by Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms of this

-40-

 

Indenture. All decisions and determinations of the Trustee regarding the Market Exchange Rate or
any alternative determination provided for in the preceding paragraph shall be in its sole
discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, to the extent permitted by law, be
conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Company and all Holders.

          SECTION 10.16. JUDGMENT CURRENCY.

     The Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any
court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or interest or other
amount on the Securities of any Series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a
judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at
which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New
York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which final unappealable
judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York Banking Day, then the rate of exchange used
shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase
in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking
Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b) its obligations under
this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied
by any tender, any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with
subsection (a)), in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such
tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the
Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as
an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency
the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the
Required Currency so expressed to be payable, and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being
obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For purposes of the foregoing, “New York
Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in The City of New York on
which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to
close.
