certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters
in one or several documents.

certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers of the Company stating

 Section 404. Acts of Holders; Record Dates. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders
signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and, subject to Section 601, conclusive in favor of the Trustee
and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 104. 
 The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or
writing may be proved in any manner which the Trustee reasonably deems sufficient. Where such execution is by a Person acting in a capacity other than such Person’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of such Person’s authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

 The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security. 
 The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to
give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series; provided that the Company
may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that
no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken.
Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to
each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. 
 The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose
of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to
institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 511, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no
such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount 

  

 -7- 

 
of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the
manner set forth in Section 106. 
 With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 104, the party hereto which sets such record dates
may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration
Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with
respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 104, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to
its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. 
 Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action
hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any
part of such principal amount. 
 In addition to the foregoing, the Trustee agrees to accept and act upon notice, instructions or directions pursuant to this
Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that (a) the party providing such written instructions, subsequent to such transmission of written
instructions, shall provide the originally executed instructions or directions to the Trustee in a timely manner, and (b) such originally executed instructions or directions shall be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing
such instructions or directions. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reasonable reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such
instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. 
 Section 405. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.

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

	 	(1)	the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing (which may be by facsimile) to or with the
Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at the location specified in Section 101; or 

  

	 	(2)	the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class
postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company at the address of the Company’s principal office specified in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 

 Section 406. Notice to Holders; Waiver. 
 Where this Indenture
provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s
address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the
failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be
waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a
condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
  

 -8- 

 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to
give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Security, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Security (or its designee), pursuant to the
Applicable Procedures of the Depositary, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 
 Section 407. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 
 If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts
with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act which is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture
Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. 
 Section 408. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 
 The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 Section 409. Successors and Assigns. 
 All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this
Indenture shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 
 Section 410. Separability Clause. 
 In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 411. Benefits of Indenture. 
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the
Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 412. Governing Law. 
 This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. 
 Section 413. Legal Holidays. 
 In any case where any Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or any date on which a Holder has the right to convert such Holder’s Security, shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of
this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section 113)) payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest, or the Redemption Price
or conversion of such Security, need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption
Date, or at the Stated Maturity, or on such conversion date. In the case, however, of Securities of a series bearing interest at a floating rate based on the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR), if any Interest Payment Date (other than the
Redemption Date 

  

 -9- 

 
or Stated Maturity) would otherwise be a date that is not a Business Day, then the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the following date which is a
Business Day, unless that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. No interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated Maturity or conversion date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment. 
 Section 414. 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 this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part
of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
 Section 415. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 
 EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING AS BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE ONLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES.

	 	(2)	if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution or pursuant to authority granted by one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by
Section 301, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 

  

	 	(3)	that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel,
will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles and (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. 

 If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will materially adversely affect the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph of this Section 303, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, including in the event that the aggregate principal
amount of a series of Outstanding Securities is increased as contemplated by Section 301, it shall not be necessary to deliver the 

  

 -14- 

 
Officer’s Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to this
Section 303 at or prior to the authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Security
shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual
signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be
deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 604.
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 of such series in lieu of
which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
 If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the
Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. 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 605. 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 a series at the office or agency of the Company 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 like tenor and principal amount. 
 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and
principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the
Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
  

 -15- 

 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 such Holder’s 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 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer. 
 If the Securities of any
series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may
be) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing, or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
 The provisions of clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) of this paragraph shall apply only to Global Securities: 
  

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

  

	 	(2)	Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in
whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable or no longer permitted
under applicable law to continue as Depositary for such Global Security, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security, (C) the Company so directs the Trustee by a Company Order or
(D) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301. 

  

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

  

	 	(4)	Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this
Section 305, Section 304, 306, 906 or 1107 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such
Global Security or a nominee thereof. 

 Section 606. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of
the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
  

 -16- 

 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (1) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Security and (2) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due
and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this
Section 306, 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 counsel to the Company and the
fees and expenses of the Trustee and its counsel) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 306 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 607. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to
the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 
 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 given to each Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close
of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 

  

 -17- 

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

 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, 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. 
 In the case of any Security which is converted after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Security whose
Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion, and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or
made available for payment) 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 such Regular Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately
preceding sentence, in the case of any Security which is converted, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion of such Security shall not be payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of any Security that may be converted
may provide that the provisions of this paragraph do not apply, or apply with such additions, changes or omissions as may be provided thereby, to such Security. 
 Section 608. 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 premium, if any, and, subject to Section 307, any
interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Section 609. Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for
payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion 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 309, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary
procedures. The Trustee shall provide the Company a list of all Securities that have been cancelled from time to time as requested by the Company. 
 Section 610. Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 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. 
  

 -18- 

 Section 611. CUSIP Numbers. 
 The Company in issuing any series of the Securities may use “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers and/or other similar numbers, if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee
may use such numbers in any notice of redemption with respect to such series; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities of that series or
as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities of that series, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

 Section 612. Original Issue Discount. 
 If any of
the Securities is an Original Issue Discount Security, the Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year (1) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual
periods) accrued on such Outstanding Original Issue Discount Securities as of the end of such year and (2) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code.

 ARTICLE IV 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any
surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such series herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture as to such series, when: 
  

	 	(1)	either 

  

	 	(A)	all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been
replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 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 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  

	 	(B)	all such Securities of such series 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 of the date of deposit, or 

  

	 	(iii)	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 deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee
as trust funds in trust for the purpose money 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 premium, if any, and interest to the
date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 
  

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

under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive. 
 Section 402. Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied
by it, in accordance with the provisions of the applicable series of Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to
the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and premium, if any, and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. All money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 (and held by it or any Paying Agent)
for the payment of Securities subsequently converted into other property shall be returned to the Company upon Company Request. The Company may direct by a Company Order the investment of any money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 401, without distinction between principal and income, in (1) United States Treasury securities with a maturity of one year or less or (2) a money market fund that invests solely in short-term United States Treasury securities

collects fees and expenses from such funds for services rendered and (b) the Trustee charges and collects fees and expenses for services rendered pursuant to this Indenture at any time) and from time to time the Company may direct the
reinvestment of all or a portion of such money in other securities or funds meeting the criteria specified in clause (1) or (2) of this Section 402. 
 ARTICLE V

 The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar federal or state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any custodian,
receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or other similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 A Default with respect to Securities of any series under

notice to the Company and the Trustee) gives notice of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (4) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied
and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” 
 Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or
(6) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount of
all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, 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), together with any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or (6) with respect to the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities
of that series (or, in the case of any Security of that series which specifies an amount to be due and payable thereon upon acceleration of the 

  

 -21- 

 
Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall automatically, and
without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable. Upon payment of such amount, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of principal and interest of the Securities
of such series shall terminate. 
 Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 301 for all or any specific Securities of any series, at any
time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided,
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	 	(2)	all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such
declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 512. 

 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
 The Company covenants that if (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
continues for a period of 30 days, or (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Security at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of
such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and premium, if any, 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 504. 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 

  

 -22- 

 
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 and any predecessor Trustee under Section 607. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the
claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar
committee. 
 Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 
 All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or
the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee under Section 607, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has
been recovered. 
 Section 506. Application of Money Collected. 
 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V 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 premium, if any, or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then
due and unpaid for principal of and premium, if any, 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 premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and 
 THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the
Company. 
 Section 507. Limitation on Suits. 
 No
Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or sequestrator (or similar official)
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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings
in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

  

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

  

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

  

 -23- 

	 	(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 aggregate 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 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest and to Convert Securities. 
 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 premium, if any, and, subject to Section 307, interest on such Security on the
respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on the Redemption Date or date for repayment, as the case may be, and, if the terms of such Security so provide, to convert such Security in
accordance with its terms) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and, if applicable, any such right to convert, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 509. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as
otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity
or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 510. 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 V 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 511. Control by Holders. 
 The Holders of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series; provided that 
  

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

  

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

 Section 512. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of not less
than a majority in aggregate 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 
  

 -24- 

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

  

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

 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 513. Undertaking for Costs. 
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess reasonable costs against any such party
litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section 513 nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an
assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Trustee, a suit by a Holder under Section 508, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities. 
 Section 514. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The
Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any
time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 515. 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. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 601. Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. 
  

	 	(1)	Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities, 

  

	 	(A)	the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee with respect to such series; and 

  

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

  

 -25- 

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

  

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

  

	 	(A)	this Section 601(3) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 601(1); 

  

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

  

	 	(C)	the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, determined as provided in Sections 101, 104 and 511, 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; and 

  

	 	(D)	no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or 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.

  

	 	(4)	Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section 601. 

 Section 602. Notice of Defaults. 
 If a Default or an Event of Default occurs with respect to Securities of any series and is continuing and if it is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail
to each Holder of Securities of such series notice of the Default within 90 days after it is known to a Responsible Officer or written notice of it is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in payment of
principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of Holders of Securities of
such series. 
 Section 603. Certain Rights of Trustee. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 601: 
  

	 	(1)	the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

  

 -26- 

	 	(2)	if so requested by the Trustee, any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order, and any resolution of
the Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 

  

	 	(3)	whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action
hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate; 

  

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

  

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

  

	 	(6)	the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or
additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 

  

	 	(7)	the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be
responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 

  

	 	(8)	the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be
enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and to its agents; 

  

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

  

	 	(10)	in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit)
irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; 

  

	 	(11)	in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly,
forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of
utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services (it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to avoid and mitigate the effects of such
occurrences and to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances); and 

  

 -27- 

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

 Section 604. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 
 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee
makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 605. May Hold Securities. 
 The Trustee, any Paying
Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it
would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 606. Money Held in Trust. 
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not
be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. 
 Section 607. Compensation and Reimbursement. 
 The Company agrees

  

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

  

	 	(2)	except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all 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 reasonable expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its
negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith, and the Trustee shall provide the Company reasonable notice of any expenditure not in the ordinary course of business; and 

  

	 	(3)	to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder. 

 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or
(6), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law. 
  

 -28- 

 The Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities as to all property and funds held by it hereunder for any amount
owing it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 607, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of Securities. 
 The provisions of this Section 607 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Section 608. Conflicting Interests. 
 If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust
Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. 
 To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with
respect to Securities of more than one series. 
 Section 609. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 
 There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series, which may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or
more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and has its Corporate Trust Office in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York or any other major city in the United States that is acceptable to the Company. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority,
then for the purposes of this Section 609 and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent annual
report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 609, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI. 
 Section 610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 611. 
 The Trustee may resign at any time with respect
to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving
of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, at the expense of the Company, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series, upon written notice delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the
giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed, at the expense of the Company, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 If at any time: 
  

	 	(1)	the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
least six months, or 

  

 -29- 

	 	(2)	the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 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 bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer
shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

 then, in any such case, (A) the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities or (B) subject to Section 513, Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of Securities of any series who have been bona
fide Holders of such Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the
appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the
office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such
successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate 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 611, 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 611, Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of Securities of any series who have been bona
fide Holders of Securities of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series. 
 The 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 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee a written 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 a written instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such
retiring Trustee hereunder. 
 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all)
series, the 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 

  

 -30- 

 
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. 
 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 the first or
second preceding paragraph, as the case may be. 
 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 VI. 
 Section 612. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided that such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI, 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, consolidation or sale 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; and in case at that time any Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
 Section 613. 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). 
 ARTICLE VII 
 HOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

Securities, and the corresponding rights and privileges of the Trustee, shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act.

Holders made pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act.

 A copy of each
such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which any Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Company. The Company will
notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange or automated quotation system or delisted therefrom. 
 Section 704. Reports by
Company. 
 The Company shall comply with all the applicable provisions of the Trust Indenture Act. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to
the Trustee is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the reports, information and documents. The Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive
notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s
Certificates). 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS

transaction or a series of related transactions, any other Person, unless:

laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor (if not the Company) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture and, for each Security that by its terms provides for conversion, shall have provided for the right to convert such Security in accordance with

 With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental

hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture;
provided, however, no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected thereby: 
  

	 	(1)	change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Security; 

  

	 	(2)	reduce the principal amount of any Security or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security or any other Security which would be due and payable upon a

	 	(7)	modify any of the provisions of this Section 902, Section 512 or Section 1005, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of

changes in the references to “the Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section 902 and Section 1005, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 611 and 901(6); or

  

	 	(8)	if the Securities of any series are convertible into or for any other securities or property of the Company, make any change that adversely affects in any material respect the right
to convert any Security of such series (except as permitted by Section 901) or decrease the conversion rate or increase the conversion price of any such Security of such series, unless such decrease or increase is permitted by the terms of such
Security. 

 A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been
included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under
this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
  

 -34- 

 It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 902 to approve the particular form of any
proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
 After a supplemental indenture under this
Section 902 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Trustee a notice briefly describing such supplemental indenture or a copy of such supplemental indenture and the Trustee shall mail such notice or supplemental indenture to Holders
affected thereby. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, or any failure of the Company to mail such supplemental indenture, shall not in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

 Section 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 
 In
executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to
Section 601, 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 and that all conditions precedent in this Indenture to the
execution of such supplemental indenture, if any, have been complied with; provided, however, that no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required in the case of any supplemental indenture executed and delivered concurrently with the
original execution and delivery of this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 Section 904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 
 Upon
the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities
theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

 Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 Section 906. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series. 
 ARTICLE X

 COVENANTS 
 Section 1001. Payment of
Principal, Premium, if any, 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 premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if, on or before 11:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on such date, the Trustee or the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is the Paying Agent, the segregated account or separate trust fund maintained by the Company or such Subsidiary pursuant to
Section 1003) holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. 
  

 -35- 

 The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay
interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful as provided in Section 307. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company or the Paying Agent may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America or other domestic or foreign taxing
authorities from principal or interest payments hereunder. 
 Section 1002. 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, where Securities may be surrendered for conversion, 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 Office of the Trustee; and such required office or agency in New York, New York
shall be at an office of the Trustee located at 101 Barclay Street, 8W, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration. 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 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. 
 With respect to any Global Security, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Security as contemplated by Section 301, the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the Place of Payment where such Global Security may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Securities may be delivered in exchange
therefor; and such Place of Payment with respect to a Global Security in New York, New York shall be at an office of the Trustee located at 101 Barclay Street, 8W, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration; provided,
however, that any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary for such Global Security shall be deemed to have been effected at the Place of Payment for such Global
Security in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Section 1003. 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 for the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities a sum sufficient to pay the principal and premium, if any, and interest so becoming due until such
sums shall be paid to such Holders 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, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the principal of or premium, if any, 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 in trust for the Holders of such Securities entitled to the same, 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 1003, that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by
such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. 
  

 -36- 

 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. 
 Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, 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 premium, if any, or interest on
any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such
trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the
Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 
 Section 1004. Statement by Officers as to Default. 
 The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof an Officer’s Certificate
signed by its principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of such officer, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms,
provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may
have knowledge. 
 Section 1005. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition
set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(1) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such series, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate 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. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 Section 1101. Applicability of Article. 
 Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities)
in accordance with this Article XI. 
 Section 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate or in another manner specified as
contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of the Securities of any series (including any such redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of
the tenor of the Securities to be 

  

 -37- 

 
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 Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
 Section 1103. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless
all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by
the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal
amount of any Security of such series; provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.
If less than all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be
deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for the purpose of such selection. 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in case of any Securities selected for partial
redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any
redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized
denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context
otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be
redeemed. 
 Section 1104. Notice of Redemption. 
 Notice
of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at such Holder’s address appearing in the Security
Register. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
  

	 	(1)	the Redemption Date; 

  

	 	(2)	the Redemption Price (or the method of calculating such price); 

  

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

  

 -38- 

	 	(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 each such Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; 

  

	 	(6)	for any Securities that by their terms may be converted, the terms of conversion, the date on which the right to convert the Security to be redeemed will terminate and the place or
places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion; 

  

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

  

	 	(8)	if applicable, the CUSIP numbers of the Securities of that series; provided, however, that no representation will be made as to the correctness or accuracy of the
CUSIP number, or any similar number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. 

 Notice of redemption of Securities to be
redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request (which may be rescinded or revoked at any time prior to the time at which the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders), by the
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. The notice, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice
by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities. 
 Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
 By no later than
11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on 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 1003) an
amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date or the Securities of the series provide otherwise) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on
that date, other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption which are owned by the Company or a Subsidiary and have been delivered by the Company or such Subsidiary to the Trustee for cancellation. All money, if any, earned on
funds held by the Paying Agent shall be remitted to the Company. In addition, the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption
Price of, and accrued interest, if any, on, all Securities to be redeemed. 
 If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with
the Trustee or with any Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to any right of the Holder of such Security or any Predecessor Security to receive interest as provided in the last paragraph
of Section 307 or in the terms of such Security) be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust. 
 Section 1106. 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, if applicable, with accrued interest to
the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such
Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307; provided further that, unless otherwise
specified as 

  

 -39- 

 
contemplated by Section 301, if the Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid
interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Securities registered on the relevant Regular Record Date. 
 If any Security called for redemption
shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium, if any, shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. 
 Any Security which is to
be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the 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 such Holder’s 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 principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 SINKING FUNDS

 Section 1201. Applicability of Article. 
 The
provisions of this Article XII shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any series of Securities is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund
payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of such Securities is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of any series of Securities, the cash
amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of the series as provided for by the terms of such Securities. 
 Section 1202. 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 any
Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The
Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such
sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
 Section 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
 Not less than 60 days (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Company will
deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of
cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1202 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior to each such
sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the
expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

 DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 1301. Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance. 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301, Sections 1302 and 1303 shall apply to any Securities or any series of
Securities, as the case may be, in either case, denominated in U.S. dollars and bearing interest at a fixed rate, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 301 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth
below in this Article XIII; and the Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have Sections 1302 and 1303 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, designated pursuant to Section 301 as being
defeasible pursuant to such Section 1302 or 1303, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 301 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article XIII. Any such election to have
or not to have Sections 1302 and 1303 apply, as the case may be, shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. 
 Section 1302. Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon the Company’s
exercise of its option, if any, to have this Section 1302 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, or if this Section 1302 shall otherwise apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section 1302 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter
called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise
terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section 1305, payments in respect of the principal
of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when payments are due, (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and
immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article XIII. Subject to compliance with this Article XIII, the Company may exercise its option, if any, to have this Section 1302 applied to the Securities of any series

 Section 1303. Covenant Defeasance.

 Upon the Company’s exercise of its option, if any, to have this Section 1303 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, or if this Section 1303 shall otherwise apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, (1) the Company shall be released from its obligations under any covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(18),
901(1) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 501(4) and Section 501(7) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to
such Securities as provided in this Section 1303 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means
that, with respect to such Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

 Section 1304. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1302 or 1303 to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be: 
  

	 	(1)	The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 609 and
agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article XIII applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits 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 money in an amount, or (C) a
combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by
the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities on the respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities.
As used herein, “U.S. Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is (i) a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is
pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the
United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as
custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in clause (x) above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest
on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held; provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any
amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt. 

  

	 	(2)	In the event of an election to have Section 1302 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax
law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and
discharge to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

  

	 	(3)	In the event of an election to have Section 1303 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be
subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur. 

  

	 	(4)	The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that neither such Securities nor any other Securities of the same series, if then listed
on any securities exchange, will be delisted as a result of such deposit. 

  

	 	(5)	No Default or Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, insofar as Sections
501(5) or 501(6) are concerned, at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day). 

  

 -42- 

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

  

	 	(7)	The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with (in each case, subject to the satisfaction of the condition in clause (5)). 

 Before or after a
deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date in accordance with Article XI. 
 Section 1305. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to the provisions of
the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section 1305 and Section 1306, the
Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of any Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of
such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to
become due thereon in respect of principal and premium, if any, and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to charge any such tax, fee or other charge to such
Holder’s account. 
 Anything in this Article XIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1304 with respect to any Securities which are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities. 
 Section 1306. Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article XIII with respect to any Securities by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under this Indenture and such Securities from which the Company has been discharged or released pursuant to
Section 1302 or 1303 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article XIII with respect to such Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in
trust pursuant to Section 1305 with respect to such Securities in accordance with this Article XIII; provided, however, that (a) if the Company makes any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any
such Security following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights, if any, of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust and (b) unless otherwise required by
any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall return all such money and U.S. Government Obligations to the Company promptly after receiving a written request therefor at any
time, if such reinstatement of the Company’s obligations has occurred and continues to be in effect. 
  

 -43- 

 ARTICLE XIV 
 REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS 
 Section 1401. Applicability of Article. 
 Repayment of Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and
(except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article XIV. 
 Section 1402.
Repayment of Securities. 
 Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless
otherwise provided in the terms of such Securities, be repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereof and premium, if any, thereon, together with interest thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant to the terms of such
Securities. The Company covenants that on or before the Repayment Date it will 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 1003) an
amount of money sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of, the premium, if any, and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid on such date. 
 Section 1403. Exercise of Option. 

Securities of any series subject to repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an “Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of such
Securities. To be repaid at the option of the Holder, any Security so providing for such repayment, with the “Option to Elect Repayment” form on the reverse of such Security duly completed by the Holder (or by the Holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing), must be received by the Company at the Place of Payment therefor specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place or places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of such
Securities) not earlier than 45 days nor later than 30 days prior to the Repayment Date. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of such Security
to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for Securities of such series, and the denomination or denominations of the Security or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount of such Security
surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such
Security would be less than the minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the
Holder thereof, exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company. 
 Section 1404. When Securities
Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable. 
 If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of the Holders thereof shall have
been surrendered as provided in this Article XIV and as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and payable and shall be paid by the
Company on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear
interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment in accordance with such provisions, the principal amount of such Security so to be repaid shall be paid by the Company, together with accrued interest and/or premium, if any, to (but
excluding) the Repayment Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of interest, if any, whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable (but
without interest thereon, unless the Company shall default in the payment thereof) to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their
terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
  

 -44- 

 If the principal amount of any Security surrendered for repayment shall not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, such
principal amount (together with interest, if any, thereon accrued to such Repayment Date) and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or yield to maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount
Securities) set forth in such Security. 
 Section 1405. Securities Repaid in Part. 
 Upon surrender of any Security which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge and at the expense of
the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in a principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be
repaid. 
 *     *     * 
 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.

 ARTICLE I. 
 Foreword 
 The PepsiCo Pension Equalization Plan (“PEP” or
“Plan”) has been established by PepsiCo for the benefit of salaried employees of the PepsiCo Organization who participate in the PepsiCo Salaried Employees Retirement Plan (“Salaried Plan”). PEP provides benefits for eligible
employees whose pension benefits under the Salaried Plan are limited by the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In addition, PEP provides benefits for certain eligible employees based on the pre-1989 Salaried Plan formula.

 The Plan was last amended and restated in its entirety effective as of January 1, 1989; that amended and restated
Plan document applies to employees who receive Credited Service on or after that date. The provisions of the Plan in effect prior to January 1, 1989 govern the rights and benefits of employees whose Credited Service ended before that date (and
as necessary, before the effective date of any provision with a different pre-1989 effective date). 
 This document is
effective as of January 1, 2005 (the “Effective Date”), and it generally retains without modification the provisions of the prior restatement. However, it has been clarified in various respects to reflect that it sets forth the terms
of the Plan applicable to benefits that are grandfathered under Section 409A, i.e., generally, benefits that are both earned and vested on or before December 31, 2004 (the “Pre-409A Program”). All benefits under the Plan
that are earned or vested after that date shall be governed by the Plan Document for the Section 409A Program (the “409A Program”). Together, this document and the document for the 409A Program describe the terms of a single plan, and
this document has been modified to clarify (without any material modification) the integration of the Pre-409A Program with the 

  

 I-1 

 
409A Program. However, amounts subject to the terms of this Pre-409A Program and amounts subject to the terms of the 409A Program shall be tracked separately
at all times. The preservation of the terms of the Pre-409A Program, without material modification, and the separation between the 409A Program amounts and the Pre-409A Program amounts are intended to be sufficient to permit the Pre-409A Program to
remain exempt from Section 409A as a program of grandfathered benefits.

 Where the following words and phrases, in boldface and underlined, appear in this Plan with
initial capitals they shall have the meaning set forth below, unless a different meaning is plainly required by the context. 
 (a) Accrued Benefit: The Pension payable at Normal Retirement Date determined in accordance with Article V, based on the Participant’s Highest Average Monthly Earnings and Credited Service at
the date of determination. 
 (b) Actuarial Equivalent: Except as otherwise specifically set
forth in the Plan or any Appendix to the Plan with respect to a specific benefit determination, a benefit of equivalent value computed on the basis of the factors set forth below. The application of the following assumptions to the computation of
benefits payable under the Plan shall be done in a uniform and consistent manner. In the event the Plan is amended to provide new rights, features or benefits, the following actuarial factors shall not apply to these new elements unless specifically
adopted by the amendment. 
  

 II-2 

 (1) Annuities and Inflation Protection: To determine the amount
of a Pension payable in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or optional form of survivor annuity, or as an annuity with inflation protection, the factors applicable for such purposes under the Salaried Plan shall apply. However, in
determining a Pre-409A Pension, no change occurring on or after the Effective Date in the basis for determining the amount of an annuity form of payment from that in effect as of December 31, 2004 shall be taken into account to the extent it

without cause, received a payment on the earliest possible commencement date (“Earliest Date”) thereafter, and such payment was in the form with the maximum value available to the Participant in connection with a termination at such time),
using the Actuarial Equivalent lump sum factors in effect on such date (“2004 Lump Sum Factors”) to determine the present value. Such present value amount shall then be increased, if the Participant had not yet attained the
Participant’s Earliest Date as of December 31, 2004, for both interest and survivorship through such Earliest Date, using the 2004 Lump Sum Factors. 
 (2) Accrued Benefit Method: The Pre-409A Pension Benefit amount under this paragraph shall be based on the Participant’s Accrued Benefit as of December 31, 2004, but with such

Participant’s Total Pension reduced by his Salaried Plan Pension, with each calculated as of the actual Annuity Starting Date of 

  

 V-2

benefits that are deferred beyond the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date); or 
 (ii) The amount (if
any) of the Participant’s PEP Guarantee under Section 5.2. 
 For purposes of subsection (b)(1) and (2), the
determination in clause (i) and (ii) above shall be made (except, in the case of subsection (b)(2), with respect to early commencement reductions, which shall be made as of the Annuity Starting Date) as of December 31, 2004, and
(except to the extent the provisions of the Plan specifically authorize taking into account subsequent changes) shall be made on 

  

 V-3 

 
the basis of the terms of the Salaried Plan without taking into account changes after December 31, 2004. As necessary to ensure the Participant’s
receipt of a “greater of” benefit, the foregoing comparison between clause (i) and clause (ii) shall be made by reflecting, as applicable, the relative value of forms of payment. 
 (2) A Participant’s “Salaried Plan Pension” means the amount of the Participant’s pension determined
under the terms of the Salaried Plan. For purposes of subsection (b)(1) and (2), the determination of a Participant’s Salaried Plan Pension shall be made (except, in the case of subsection (b)(2), with respect to early commencement reductions,
which shall be made as of the Annuity Starting Date) as of December 31, 2004, and (except to the extent the provisions of the Plan specifically authorize taking into account subsequent changes) shall be made on the basis of the terms of the
Salaried Plan without taking into account changes after December 31, 2004. 
 5.2 PEP Guarantee: A Post-2004
Participant who is eligible under subsection (a) below shall be entitled to a PEP Guarantee benefit determined under subsection (b) below. In the case of Participants who are not eligible under subsection (a), the PEP Guarantee shall not
apply. 
 (a) Eligibility: A Participant shall be covered by this section if the Participant has 1988
pensionable earnings from an Employer of at least $75,000. For purposes of this section, “1988 pensionable earnings” means the Participant’s remuneration for the 1988 calendar year, within the meaning of the Salaried Plan as in effect
in 1988. “1988 pensionable earnings” does not include remuneration from an entity attributable to any period when that entity was not an Employer. 
  

 V-4 

 (b) PEP Guarantee Formula: The amount of a Participant’s PEP
Guarantee shall be determined under the applicable formula in paragraph (1), subject to the special rules in paragraph (2). 
 (1) Formulas: The amount of a Participant’s Pension under this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with subparagraph (i) below. However, if the Participant was actively employed by the PepsiCo
Organization in a classification eligible for the Salaried Plan prior to July 1, 1975, the amount of his Pension under this paragraph shall be the greater of the amounts determined under subparagraphs (i) and (ii), provided that
subparagraph (ii)(B) shall not apply in determining the amount of a Vested Pension. 
 (i) Formula A:
The Pension amount under this subparagraph shall be: 
 (A) 3 percent of the Participant’s Highest
Average Monthly Earnings for the first 10 years of Credited Service, plus 
 (B) 1 percent of the
Participant’s Highest Average Monthly Earnings for each year of Credited Service in excess of 10 years, less 
 (C) 1-2/3 percent of the Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount multiplied by years of Credited Service not in excess of 30 years. 
  

 V-5 

 In determining the amount of a Vested Pension under this Formula A, the Pension
shall first be calculated on the basis of (I) the Credited Service the Participant would have earned had he remained in the employ of the Employer until his Normal Retirement Age, and (II) his Highest Average Monthly Earnings and Primary Social
Security Amount at his Severance from Service Date, and then shall be reduced by multiplying the resulting amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s actual years of Credited Service on his Severance from Service Date (or
December 31, 2004, if earlier) and the denominator of which is the years of Credited Service he would have earned had he remained in the employ of an Employer until his Normal Retirement Age. 
 (ii) Formula B: The Pension amount under this subparagraph shall be the greater of (A) or (B) below:

 (A) 1-1/2 percent of Highest Average Monthly Earnings times the number of years of Credited Service, less
50 percent of the Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount, or 
 (B) 3 percent of Highest Average
Monthly Earnings times the number of years of Credited Service up to 15 years, less 50 percent of the Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount. 
 In determining the amount of a Disability Pension under Formula A or B above, the Pension shall be calculated on the basis of the Participant’s Credited Service 

  

 V-6 

 
(determined in accordance with Section 3.3(d)(3) of the Salaried Plan, as in effect on December 31, 2004), and his Highest Average Monthly Earnings
and Primary Social Security Amount at the date of disability (or as of such earlier date as may apply under Section 5.1(b)). 
 (2) Calculation: The amount of the PEP Guarantee shall be determined pursuant to paragraph (1) above, subject to the following special rules: 
 (i) Surviving Eligible Spouse’s Annuity: Subject to subparagraph (iii) below and the last sentence of
this subparagraph, if the Participant has an Eligible Spouse, the Participant’s Eligible Spouse shall be entitled to receive a survivor annuity equal to 50 percent of the Participant’s Annuity under this section, with no corresponding
reduction in such Annuity for the Participant. Annuity payments to a surviving Eligible Spouse shall begin on the first day of the month coincident with or following the Participant’s death and shall end with the last monthly payment due prior
to the Eligible Spouse’s death. If the Eligible Spouse is more than 10 years younger than the Participant, the survivor benefit payable under this subparagraph shall be adjusted as provided below. 
 (A) For each full year more than 10 but less than 21 that the surviving Eligible Spouse is younger than the Participant,
the survivor benefit payable to such spouse shall be reduced by 0.8 percent. 
  

 V-7 

 (B) For each full year more than 20 that the surviving Eligible Spouse
is younger than the Participant, the survivor benefit payable to such spouse shall be reduced by an additional 0.4 percent. 
 (ii) Reductions: The following reductions shall apply in determining a Participant’s PEP Guarantee. 
 (A) If the Participant will receive an Early Retirement Pension, the payment amount shall be reduced by 3/12ths of 1 percent for each month by which the benefit commencement date precedes the
date the Participant would attain his Normal Retirement Date. 
 (B) If the Participant is entitled to a
Vested Pension, the payment amount shall be reduced to the Actuarial Equivalent of the amount payable at his Normal Retirement Date (if payment commences before such date), and the Section 4.6(b) reductions for any Pre-Retirement Spouse’s
coverage shall apply. 
 (C) This clause applies if the Participant will receive his Pension in a form that
provides an Eligible Spouse benefit, continuing for the life of the surviving spouse, that is greater than that provided under subparagraph (i). In this instance, the Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the total
value of the benefit payable on the Participant’s behalf is the Actuarial Equivalent of the Pension otherwise payable under the foregoing provisions of this section. 
  

 V-8 

 (D) This clause applies if the Participant will receive his Pension in
a form that provides a survivor annuity for a beneficiary who is not his Eligible Spouse. In this instance, the Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the total value of the benefit payable on the Participant’s
behalf is the Actuarial Equivalent of a Single Life Annuity for the Participant’s life. 
 (E) This
clause applies if the Participant will receive his Pension in a Annuity form that includes inflation protection described in Section 6.2(b). In this instance, the Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the total
value of the benefit payable on the Participant’s behalf is the Actuarial Equivalent of the elected Annuity without such protection. 
 (iii) Lump Sum Conversion: The amount of the Retirement Pension determined under this section for a Participant whose Retirement Pension will be distributed in the form of a lump sum shall be the Actuarial
Equivalent of the Participant’s PEP Guarantee determined under this section, taking into account the value of any survivor benefit under subparagraph (i) above and any early retirement reductions under subparagraph (ii)(A) above.

  

 V-9 

 5.3 Amount of Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pre-409A Pension: The monthly amount
of the Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pre-409A Pension payable to a surviving Eligible Spouse of a Post-2004 Participant under Section 4.6 shall be determined under subsection (a) below. 
 (a) Calculation: An Eligible Spouse’s Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pre-409A Pension shall be equal to:

 (1) The Eligible Spouse’s Total Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension, reduced by 

(2) The Eligible Spouse’s Salaried Plan Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension. 
 (b) Definitions: The following definitions apply for purposes of this section. 
 (1) An Eligible Spouse’s “Total Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension” means the greater of: 

(i) The amount of the Eligible Spouse’s pre-retirement spouse’s pension determined under the principles and
limitations of Section 5.1(b) and under the terms of the Salaried Plan in effect on December 31, 2004 (except as otherwise applicable under Section 5.1(b)), but without regard to: (A) the limitations imposed by sections
401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code (as such limitations are interpreted and applied under the Salaried Plan), and (B) the actuarial adjustment under Section 5.7(d) of the Salaried Plan (relating to benefits that are deferred beyond the
Participant’s Normal Retirement Date); or 
  

 V-10 

 (ii) The amount (if any) of the Eligible Spouse’s PEP Guarantee
Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension determined under the principles and limitations of Section 5.1(b) and under subsection (c). 
 In making this comparison, the benefits in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above shall be calculated with reference to the specific time of payment applicable to the Eligible Spouse. 
 (2) An “Eligible Spouse’s Salaried Plan Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension” means the Pre-Retirement
Spouse’s Pension that would be payable to the Eligible Spouse under the principles and limitations of Section 5.1(b) under the terms of the Salaried Plan in effect on December 31, 2004 (except as otherwise applicable under
Section 5.1(b)). 
 (c) PEP Guarantee Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension: An Eligible
Spouse’s PEP Guarantee Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension shall be determined in accordance with paragraph (1) or (2) below, whichever is applicable, with reference to the PEP Guarantee (if any) that would have been available to the
Participant under Section 5.2. 
 (1) Normal Rule: The Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension
payable under this paragraph shall be equal to the amount that would be payable as a survivor annuity, under a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, if the Participant had: 
 (i) Separated from service on the earliest of the date of death, his actual Severance from Service Date; 
  

 V-11 

 (ii) Commenced a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity on the same date
payments of the Qualified Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension are to commence; and 
 (iii) Died on the day
immediately following such commencement. 
 If payment of a Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension under this paragraph
commences or is deemed to commence prior to the date which would have been the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, appropriate reductions for early commencement shall be applied to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity upon which the
Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension is based. 
 (2) Special Rule for Active and Disabled Employees:
Notwithstanding paragraph (1) above, the Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension paid on behalf of a Participant described in Section 4.6(a) shall not be less than an amount equal to 25 percent of such Participant’s PEP Guarantee
determined under Section 5.2 in accordance with the principles and limitations of Section 5.1(b) (if a comparable 25 percent benefit is available on behalf of the Participant under the Salaried Plan). A Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension
under this paragraph is not reduced for early commencement. 
 5.4 Certain Adjustments: Pensions determined under the
foregoing sections of this Article are subject to adjustment as provided in this section. For purposes of this section, 

  

 V-12 

 
“specified plan” shall mean the Salaried Plan or a nonqualified pension plan similar to this Plan. A nonqualified pension plan is similar to this
Plan if it is sponsored by a member of the PepsiCo Organization and if its benefits are not based on participant pay deferrals. 
 (a) Adjustments for Rehired Participants: This subsection shall apply to a current or former Participant who is reemployed after his Annuity Starting Date and whose benefit under the Salaried Plan is
recalculated based on an additional period of Credited Service. In the event of any such recalculation, the Participant’s PEP Pension shall also be recalculated hereunder. For this purpose, the PEP Guarantee under Section 5.2 is adjusted
for in-service distributions and prior distributions in the same manner as benefits are adjusted under the Salaried Plan, but by taking into account benefits under this Plan and any specified plans. 
 (b) Adjustment for Increased Pension Under Other Plans: If the benefit paid under a specified plan on behalf of a
Participant is increased after PEP benefits on his behalf have been determined (whether the increase is by order of a court, by agreement of the plan administrator of the specified plan, or otherwise), the PEP benefit for the Participant shall be
recalculated. If the recalculation identifies an overpayment hereunder, the Plan Administrator shall take such steps as it deems advisable to recover the overpayment. It is specifically intended that there shall be no duplication of payments under
this Plan and any specified plans. 
 5.5 Excludable Employment: Effective for periods of employment on or after
June 30, 1997, an executive classified as level 22 or above (or the equivalent) whose employment by an Employer is for a limited duration assignment shall not become entitled to a benefit or to 

  

 V-13 

 
any increase in benefits in connection with such employment. In addition, in the case of agreements entered into after January 1, 2009, an executive who
has signed a written agreement with the Company pursuant to which the individual either (i) waives eligibility under the Plan (even if the individual otherwise meets the definition of Employee under the Plan), or (ii) agrees not to
participate in the Plan, shall not thereafter becomes entitled to a benefit or to any increase in benefits in connection with such employment (whichever applies). Written agreements may be entered into either before or after the executive becomes
eligible for or begins participation in the Plan, and such written agreement may take any form that is deemed effective by the Company. All written agreements under this section 5.5 shall be irrevocable by the individual once executed. 

 

 V-14 

 ARTICLE VI. 
 Distribution Options 
 The terms of this Article govern (i) the distribution of
benefits to a Participant who becomes entitled to a Pre-409A Pension, and (ii) the continuation of benefits (if any) to such Participant’s beneficiary following the Participant’s death. Other than as set forth in section 4.9 (cashout
distributions), a Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension derived from the Pre-409A Program shall be payable as an Annuity for the life of the Eligible Spouse (except as provided in Article VI of the Salaried Plan). The distribution of a 409A Pension
is governed by the terms of the 409A Program. 
 6.1 Form and Timing of Distributions: This section shall govern the
form and timing of distributions of Pre-409A Pensions that begin on or after March 1, 1992. Plan distributions that begin before that date shall be governed by the prior terms of the Plan. The provisions of this Section 6.1 are in all
cases subject to the cashout rules set forth in Section 4.9. 
 (a) No Advance Election: This
subsection shall apply to a Participant: (i) who does not have an Advance Election in effect as of the close of business on the day before his Retirement Date, or (ii) who terminates employment prior to Retirement. Subject to the next
sentence, a Participant described in this subsection shall be paid his PEP Pension in the same form and at the same time as he is paid his Pension under the Salaried Plan. If a Participant’s Salaried Plan Annuity Starting Date occurs while he
is still an employee of the PepsiCo Organization (because of the time of payment provisions in Code section 401(a)(9)), payment under the Plan shall not begin until the first of the month next following the Participant’s Severance from Service
Date. In this instance, the form of payment under this Plan shall remain that applicable under the Salaried Plan. If 

  

 VI-1 

 
the Participant will be paid his pension under the Salaried Plan in a form of payment that is not available to the Participant under this Pre-409A Program
(e.g., because the Participant attains Retirement status under the Salaried Plan but does not attain Retirement status under this Pre-409A Program, based on applying the terms of the Salaried Plan in effect on December 31, 2004), the
principles of subsection (b)(2) below will govern the determination of the Participant’s form of payment. 
 (b) Advance Election in Effect: This subsection shall apply to a Participant who has an Advance Election in effect as of the close of business on the day before his Retirement Date. To be in effect, an Advance Election must meet the
advance receipt and other requirements of Section 6.3(b). 
 (1) Lump Sum Election: If a
Participant covered by this subsection has an Advance Election to receive a Single Lump Sum in effect as of the close of business on the day before his Retirement Date, the Participant’s Pre-409A Retirement Pension under the Plan shall be paid
as a Single Lump Sum as of the first of the month coincident with or next following his Retirement Date. 
 (2) Annuity Election: If a Participant covered by this subsection has an Advance Election to receive an Annuity in effect as of the close of business on the day before his Retirement Date, the Participant’s Pre-409A Retirement
Pension under the Plan shall be paid in an Annuity beginning on the first of the month coincident with or next following his Retirement Date. The following provisions of this paragraph govern the form of Annuity payable in the case of a Participant
described in this paragraph. 
  

 VI-2 

 (i) Salaried Plan Election: A Participant who has a qualifying
Salaried Plan election shall receive his distribution in the same form of Annuity the Participant selected in such qualifying Salaried Plan election. For this purpose, a “qualifying Salaried Plan election” is a written election of a form
of payment by the Participant that: (A) is currently in effect under the Salaried Plan as of the close of business on the day before the Participant’s Retirement Date, and (B) specifies an Annuity as the form of payment for all or
part of the Participant’s Retirement Pension under the Salaried Plan. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Participant who elects a combination lump sum and Annuity under the Salaried Plan is considered to have specified an Annuity for
part of his Salaried Plan Pension. 
 (ii) PEP Election: A Participant who is not covered by
subparagraph (i) and who has a PEP Election in effect as of the close of business on the day before his Retirement Date shall receive his distribution in the form of Annuity the Participant selects in such PEP Election. 
 (iii) No PEP Election: A Participant who is not covered by subparagraph (i) or (ii) above shall receive
his distribution in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity if he is married, or in the form of a Single Life Annuity if he is not married. For purposes of this subparagraph (iii), a Participant shall be considered married if he is
married on the day before his Retirement Date. 
  

 VI-3 

 6.2 Available Forms of Payment: The forms of payment set forth in subsections
(a) and (b) may be provided to any Participant who is entitled to a Pre-409A Retirement Pension. The forms of payment for other Participants are set forth in subsection (c) below. The provisions of this section are effective for
Annuity Starting Dates after 1989 and earlier distributions shall be governed by prior terms of the Plan. 
 (a) Basic Forms of Payment: A Participant’s Pre-409A Retirement Pension shall be distributed in one of the forms of payment listed in this subsection. The particular form of payment applicable to a Participant shall be
determined in accordance with Section 6.1. Payments shall commence on the date specified in Section 6.1 and shall end on the date specified in this subsection. 
 (1) Single Life Annuity Option: A Participant may receive his Pre-409A Pension in the form of a Single Life
Annuity, which provides monthly payments ending with the last payment due prior to his death. 
 (2)
Survivor Options: A Participant may receive his Pre-409A Pension in accordance with one of the following survivor options: 
 (i) 100 Percent Survivor Option: The Participant shall receive a reduced Pre-409A Pension payable for life, ending with the last monthly payment due prior to his death. Payments in the same reduced amount shall
continue after the Participant’s death to his beneficiary for life, beginning on the first day of the month coincident with or following the Participant’s death and ending with the last monthly payment due prior to the beneficiary’s
death. 
  

 VI-4 

 (ii) 75 Percent Survivor Option: The Participant shall receive a
reduced Pre-409A Pension payable for life, ending with the last monthly payment due prior to his death. Payments in the amount of 75 percent of such reduced Pre-409A Pension shall be continued after the Participant’s death to his beneficiary
for life, beginning on the first day of the month coincident with or following the Participant’s death and ending with the last monthly payment due prior to the beneficiary’s death. 
 (iii) 50 Percent Survivor Option: The Participant shall receive a reduced Pre-409A Pension payable for life,
ending with the last monthly payment due prior to his death. Payments in the amount of 50 percent of such reduced Pre-409A Pension shall be continued after the Participant’s death to his beneficiary for life, beginning on the first day of the
month coincident with or following the Participant’s death and ending with the last monthly payment due prior to the beneficiary’s death. A 50 percent survivor option under this paragraph shall be a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity if
the Participant’s beneficiary is his Eligible Spouse. 
 (iv) Ten Years Certain and Life Option:
The Participant shall receive a reduced Pre-409A Pension which shall be payable monthly for his lifetime but for not less than 120 months. If the retired Participant dies before 120 payments have been made, the monthly Pension amount shall be paid
for the remainder of the 120 month period to the Participant’s primary beneficiary (or if the primary beneficiary has predeceased the Participant, the Participant’s contingent beneficiary). 
  

 VI-5 

 (3) Single Lump Sum Payment Option: A
Participant may receive payment of his Pre-409A Pension in the form of a Single Lump Sum payment. 
 (4)
Combination Lump Sum/Monthly Benefit Option: A Participant who does not have an Advance Election in effect may receive a portion of his Pre-409A Pension in the form of a lump sum payment, and the remaining portion in the form of one of the
monthly benefits described in paragraphs (1) and (2) above. The Pre-409A Pension is divided between the two forms of payment based on the whole number percentages designated by the Participant on a form provided for this purpose by the
Plan Administrator. For the election to be effective, the sum of the two percentages designated by the Participant must equal 100 percent. 
 (i) The amount of the Pre-409A Pension paid in the form of a lump sum is determined by multiplying: (A) the amount that would be payable to the Participant as a Single Lump Sum payment if
the Participant’s entire benefit were payable in that form, by (B) the percentage that the Participant has designated for receipt in the form of a lump sum. 
 (ii) The amount of the Pre-409A Pension paid in the form of a monthly benefit is determined by multiplying: (A) the
amount of the monthly benefit elected by the Participant, determined in accordance with paragraph (1) or (2) above (whichever applies), by (B) the percentage that the Participant has designated for receipt in the form of a monthly
benefit. 
  

 VI-6 

 (b) Inflation Protection: The following levels of inflation
protection may be provided to any Participant who is entitled to a Pre-409A Retirement Pension (except to the extent such Pre-409A Pension is paid as a lump sum). 
 (1) 5 Percent Inflation Protection: A Participant’s monthly benefit shall be initially reduced, but
thereafter shall be increased if inflation in the prior year exceeds 5 percent. The amount of the increase shall be the difference between inflation in the prior year and 5 percent. 
 (2) 7 Percent Inflation Protection: A Participant’s monthly benefit shall be initially reduced, but
thereafter shall be increased if inflation in the prior year exceeds 7 percent. The amount of the increase shall be the difference between inflation in the prior year and 7 percent. 
 Benefits shall be subject to increase in accordance with this subsection each January 1, beginning with the second January 1
following the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date. The amount of inflation in the prior year shall be determined based on inflation in the 12-month period ending on September 30 of such year, with inflation measured in the same manner as
applies on the Effective Date for adjusting Social Security benefits for changes in the cost of living. Inflation protection that is in effect shall carry over to any survivor benefit payable on behalf of a Participant, and shall increase the
otherwise applicable survivor benefit as provided above. Any election by a Participant to receive inflation protection shall be irrevocable by such Participant or his surviving beneficiary. 
  

 VI-7 

 (c) Available Options for Vested Benefits: The forms of payment
available for a Participant with a Pre-409A Vested Pension are a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or a 75 Percent Survivor Annuity for married Participants, and a Single Life Annuity for both married and unmarried Participants. The applicable
form of payment shall be determined in accordance with Section 6.1(a). 
 6.3 Procedures for Elections: This
section sets forth the procedures for making Advance Elections and PEP Elections. 
 (a) In General:
To qualify as an Advance Election or PEP Election for purposes of Section 6.1, an election must be made in writing, on the form designated by the Plan Administrator, and must be signed by the Participant. These requirements also apply to any
revocations of such elections. Spousal consent is not required for any election (or revocation of election) under the Plan. 
 (b) Advance Election: To qualify as an Advance Election, an election must be made on or after July 15, 1993 and meet the following requirements. 
 (1) Election: The Participant shall designate on the Advance Election form whether the Participant elects to take
his Pre-409A Pension in the form of an Annuity or a Single Lump Sum. 
 (2) Receipt by Plan
Administrator: The Advance Election must be received by the Plan Administrator before the start of the calendar year containing the Participant’s Retirement Date, and at least 6 months before that Retirement Date. An election that
meets the foregoing requirements shall remain effective until it is changed or revoked. 
  

 VI-8 

 (3) Change or Revocation of Election: A Plan Participant may
change an Advance Election by filing a new Election that meets the foregoing requirements. A Plan Participant may revoke an Advance Election only by filing a revocation that is received by the Plan Administrator before the start of the calendar
year containing the Plan Participant’s Retirement Date, and at least 6 months before that Retirement Date. 
 Any
Advance Election by a Participant shall be void if the Participant is not entitled to a Pre-409A Retirement Pension. 
 (c) PEP Election: A PEP Election may only be made by a Participant who has an Advance Election to receive an Annuity in effect at the time his PEP Election is received by the Plan Administrator. In determining
whether an Advance Election is in effect for this purpose, the advance receipt requirement of subsection (b)(2) shall be considered met if it will be met by the Participant’s proposed Retirement Date. 
 (1) Election: The Participant shall designate on the PEP Election form the Annuity form of benefit the
Participant selects from those described in Section 6.2, including the Participant’s choice of inflation protection, subject to the provisions of this Article VI. The forms of payment described in Section 6.2(a)(3) and
(4) are not available pursuant to a PEP Election. 
 (2) Receipt by the Plan Administrator: The
PEP Election must be received by the Plan Administrator no earlier than 180 days (90 days prior to January 1, 2007) before the Participant’s Retirement Date, and no later than the close of business on the day before the Participant’s
Retirement Date. The Participant shall furnish proof of the age of his beneficiary (including his Eligible Spouse if applicable), to the Plan Administrator by the day before the Participant’s Retirement Date, for any form of payment which is
subject to reduction in accordance with subsection 6.2(c) above. 
  

 VI-9 

 A Participant may change his PEP Election by filing a new Election with the Plan
Administrator that meets the foregoing requirements. The Participant’s PEP Election shall become effective at the close of business on the day before the Participant’s Retirement Date. Any PEP Election by a Participant shall be void if the
Participant does not have an Advance Election in effect at such time. 
 (d) Elections Rules for Annuity
Starting Dates: When amounts become payable to a Participant in accordance with Article IV, they shall be payable as of the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date and the election procedures (in this section and Sections 6.1 and 6.5) shall
apply to all of the Participant’s unpaid accruals under this Pre-409A Program as of such Annuity Starting Date, with the following exception. In the case of a Participant who is rehired after his initial Annuity Starting Date and who
(i) is currently receiving an Annuity that remained in pay status upon rehire, or (ii) was previously paid a lump sum distribution (other than a cashout distribution described in Section 4.9(a)), the Participant’s subsequent
Annuity Starting Date (as a result of his termination of reemployment), and the election procedures at such subsequent Annuity Starting Date, shall apply only to the portion of his benefit that accrues after his rehire. Any prior accruals that
remain to be paid as of the Participant’s subsequent Annuity Starting Date shall continue to be payable in accordance with the elections made at his initial Annuity Starting Date under this Pre-409A Program. 
  

 VI-10 

 For purposes of this section, an election shall be treated as received on a particular day if it is:
(A) postmarked that day, or (B) actually received by the Plan Administrator on that day. Delivery under clause (B) must be made by the close of business, which time is to be determined by the Plan Administrator. 
 6.4 Special Rules for Survivor Options: 
 (a) Effect of Certain Deaths: If a Participant makes a PEP Election for a form of payment described in Section 6.2(a)(2) and the Participant or his beneficiary (beneficiaries in the
case of Section 6.2(a)(2)(iv)) dies before the PEP Election becomes effective, the election shall be disregarded. If the Participant dies after such PEP Election becomes effective but before his Pre-409A Retirement Pension actually commences,
the election shall be given effect and the amount payable to his surviving Eligible Spouse or other beneficiary shall commence on the first day of the month following his death (any back payments due the Participant shall be payable to his estate).
In the case of a Participant who has elected the form of payment described in Section 6.2(a)(2)(iv), if such Participant dies: (i) after the PEP Election has become effective, (ii) without a surviving primary or contingent
beneficiary, and (iii) before receiving 120 payments under the form of payment, then the remaining payments due under such form of payment shall be paid to the Participant’s estate. If payments have commenced under such form of payment to
a Participant’s primary or contingent beneficiary and such beneficiary dies before payments are completed, then the remaining payments due under such form of payment shall be paid to such beneficiary’s estate. 
  

 VI-11 

 (b) Nonspouse Beneficiaries: If a Participant’s beneficiary
is not his Eligible Spouse, he may not elect: 
 (i) The 100 percent survivor option described in
Section 6.2(a)(2)(i) if his nonspouse beneficiary is more than 10 years younger than he is, or 
 (ii)
The 75 percent survivor option described in Section 6.2(a)(2)(ii) if his nonspouse beneficiary is more than 19 years younger than he is. 
 6.5 Designation of Beneficiary: A Participant who has elected to receive all or part of his pension in a form of payment that includes a survivor option shall designate a beneficiary who will be entitled to any
amounts payable on his death. Such designation shall be made on a PEP Election Form or an approved election form filed under the Salaried Plan, whichever is applicable. In the case of the survivor option described in Section 6.2(a)(2)(iv), the
Participant shall be entitled to name both a primary beneficiary and a contingent beneficiary. A Participant (whether active or former) shall have the right to change or revoke his beneficiary designation at any time prior to when his election is
finally effective. The designation of any beneficiary, and any change or revocation thereof, shall be made in accordance with rules adopted by the Plan Administrator. A beneficiary designation shall not be effective unless and until filed with the
Plan Administrator. If no beneficiary is properly designated, then a Participant’s election of a survivor’s option described in Section 6.2(a)(2) shall not be given effect. A Participant entitled to a Pre-409A Vested Pension does not
have the right or ability to name a beneficiary; if the Participant is permitted under Section 6.2 to elect an optional form of payment, then his beneficiary shall be his Eligible Spouse on his Annuity Starting Date. 
 6.6 Payment of FICA and Related Income Taxes: As provided in section 6.7 of the Plan Document for the Section 409A Program,
a portion of a Participant’s 409A Pension, 

  

 VI-12 

 
if any, shall be paid as a single lump sum and remitted directly to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or other applicable tax authority in
satisfaction of the Participant’s FICA Amount and the related withholding of income tax at source on wages (imposed under Code Section 3401 or the corresponding withholding provisions of the applicable state, local or foreign tax laws as a
result of the payment of the FICA Amount) and the additional withholding of income tax at source on wages that is attributable to the pyramiding of wages and taxes (all such amounts due are referred to collectively as “Employment Taxes”).
To the extent that a Participant’s 409A Pension, if any, is insufficient to pay the Employment Taxes when due (including if the Participant’s 409A Pension has not commenced at the time the Employment Taxes are due), a portion of the
Participant’s Pre-409A Pension, if any, shall be paid as a single lump sum and remitted directly to the applicable tax authority in satisfaction of any amounts necessary to satisfy fully the Employment Taxes. 
  

 VI-13 

 ARTICLE VII. 
 Administration 
 7.1 Authority to Administer Plan: The Plan shall be
administered by the Plan Administrator, which shall have the authority to interpret the Plan and issue such regulations as it deems appropriate. The Plan Administrator shall maintain Plan records and make benefit calculations, and may rely upon
information furnished it by the Participant in writing, including the Participant’s current mailing address, age and marital status. The Plan Administrator’s interpretations, determinations, regulations and calculations shall be final and
binding on all persons and parties concerned. The Company, in its capacity as Plan Administrator or in any other capacity, shall not be a fiduciary of the Plan and any restrictions that apply to a party in interest under section 406 of ERISA shall
not apply to the Company or otherwise under the Plan. 
 7.2 Facility of Payment: Whenever, in the Plan
Administrator’s opinion, a person entitled to receive any payment of a benefit or installment thereof hereunder is under a legal disability or is incapacitated in any way so as to be unable to manage his financial affairs, the Plan
Administrator may make payments to such person or to the legal representative of such person for his benefit, or the Plan Administrator may apply the payment for the benefit of such person in such manner as it considers advisable. Any payment of a
benefit or installment thereof in accordance with the provisions of this section shall be a complete discharge of any liability for the making of such payment under the provisions of the Plan. 
 7.3 Claims Procedure: The Plan Administrator shall have the exclusive discretionary authority to construe and to interpret the
Plan, to decide all questions of eligibility for benefits and to determine the amount of such benefits, and its decisions on such matters are final and conclusive. As a result, benefits under this Plan will be paid only if the Plan 

  

 VII-1 

 
Administrator decides in its discretion that the person claiming such benefits is entitled to them. This discretionary authority is intended to be absolute,
and in any case where the extent of this discretion is in question, the Plan Administrator is to be accorded the maximum discretion possible. Any exercise of this discretionary authority shall be reviewed by a court, arbitrator or other tribunal
under the arbitrary and capricious standard (i.e., the abuse of discretion standard). If, pursuant to this discretionary authority, an assertion of any right to a benefit by or on behalf of a Participant or beneficiary (a
“claimant”) is wholly or partially denied, the Plan Administrator, or a party designated by the Plan Administrator, will provide such claimant within the 90-day period following the receipt of the claim by the Plan Administrator, a
comprehensible written notice setting forth: 
 (a) The specific reason or reasons for such denial;

 (b) Specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 
 (c) A description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to submit to perfect the claim and
an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and 
 (d) A description of the Plan’s
claim review procedure (including the time limits applicable to such process and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA following a further denial on review). 
 If the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances required an extension of time for processing the claim it may extend the response period
from 90 to 180 days. If this occurs, the Plan Administrator will notify the claimant before the end of the initial 90-day period, indicating the special circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Plan Committee 

  

 VII-2 

 
expects to make the final decision. The claim review procedure is available upon written request by the claimant to the Plan Administrator, or the designated
party, within 60 days after receipt by the claimant of written notice of the denial of the claim. Upon review, the Plan Administrator shall provide the claimant a full and fair review of the claim, including the opportunity to submit to the Plan
Administrator comments, documents, records and other information relevant to the claim and the Plan Administrator’s review shall take into account such comments, documents, records and information regardless of whether it was submitted or
considered at the initial determination. The decision on review will be made within 60 days after receipt of the request for review, unless circumstances warrant an extension of time not to exceed an additional 60 days. If this occurs, notice of the
extension will be furnished to the claimant before the end of the initial 60-day period, indicating the special circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to make the final decisions. The final
decision shall be in writing and drafted in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant; include specific reasons for the decision with references to the specific Plan provisions on which the decision is based; and provide that the claimant
is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to his or her claim for benefits.. 
 Any claim under the Plan that is reviewed by a court shall be reviewed solely on the basis of the record before the Plan Administrator at the time it made its determination. In addition, any such
review shall be conditioned on the claimant’s having fully exhausted all rights under this section. Any notice or other notification that is required to be sent to a claimant under this section may be sent pursuant to any method approved under
Department of Labor Regulation Section 2520.104b-1 or other applicable guidance. 
  

 VII-3 

 7.4 Effect of Specific References: Specific references in the Plan to the Plan
Administrator’s discretion shall create no inference that the Plan Administrator’s discretion in any other respect, or in connection with any other provision, is less complete or broad. 
  

 VII-4 

 ARTICLE VIII. 
 Miscellaneous 
 8.1 No guarantee of Employment: Nothing contained in this
Plan shall be construed as a contract of employment between an Employer and any Employee, or as a right of any Employee to be continued in the employment of an Employer, or as a limitation of the right of an Employer to discharge any of its
Employees, with or without cause. 
 8.2 Nonalienation of Benefits: Benefits payable under the Plan or the right to
receive future benefits under the Plan shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution, or levy of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary, and any
attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, charge or otherwise dispose of any right to benefits payable hereunder, including any assignment or alienation in connection with a divorce, separation, child support or
similar arrangement, shall be null and void and not binding on the Company. The Company shall not in any manner be liable for, or subject to, the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person entitled to benefits hereunder.

 8.3 Unfunded Plan: The Company’s obligations under the Plan shall not be funded, but shall constitute
liabilities by the Company payable when due out of the Company’s general funds. To the extent the Participant or any other person acquires a right to receive benefits under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the rights of any
unsecured general creditor of the Company. 
 8.4 Action by the Company: Any action by the Company under this Plan
may be made by the Board of Directors of the Company or by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, with a report of any actions taken by it to the Board of Directors. In addition, such action may be made by any other person or persons
duly authorized by resolution of said Board to take such action. 
  

 VIII-1 

 8.5 Indemnification: Unless the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine
otherwise, the Company shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any employee acting in good faith within the scope of his employment in carrying out the administration of the Plan. 
 8.6 Code Section 409A: At all times, this Plan shall be operated to preserve the status of benefits under this Pre-409A
Program as being exempt from Section 409A, i.e., to preserve the grandfathered status of this Pre-409A Program. In all cases, the provision of the prior sentence shall apply notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan.
Accordingly, in determining rights and benefits under this Pre-409A Program, changes in the Salaried Plan that are effective after December 31, 2004 shall be disregarded to the extent necessary to avoid a modification of this Pre-409A Program
that would constitute a material modification for purposes of Section 409A. 
 8.7 Authorized Transfers: If a
Participant transfers to an entity that is not part of the PepsiCo Organization, the liability for any benefits accrued while the Participant was employed by the PepsiCo Organization shall remain with the Company. 
  

 VIII-2 

 ARTICLE IX. 
 Amendment and Termination 
 This Article governs the Company’s right to amend
and or terminate the Plan. The Company’s amendment and termination powers under this Article shall be subject, in all cases, to the restrictions on amendment and termination in Section 409A and shall be exercised in accordance with such
restrictions to ensure continued exemption from Section 409A in accordance with Section 8.6. 
 9.1
Continuation of the Plan: While the Company and the Employers intend to continue the Plan indefinitely, they assume no contractual obligation as to its continuance. In accordance with Section 8.4, the Company hereby reserves the right,
in its sole discretion, to amend, terminate, or partially terminate the Plan at any time provided, however, that no such amendment or termination shall adversely affect the amount of benefit to which a Participant or his beneficiary is entitled
under Article IV on the date of such amendment or termination, unless the Participant becomes entitled to an amount equal to such benefit under another plan or practice adopted by the Company (except as necessary to preserve the exemption from
Section 409A of this Pre-409A Program). Specific forms of payment are not protected under the preceding sentence. 
 9.2 Amendments: The Company may, in its sole discretion, make any amendment or amendments to this Plan from time to time, with or without retroactive effect, including any amendment or amendments to eliminate available distribution
options under Article VI hereof at any time before the earlier of the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date under this Plan or under the Salaried Plan; provided, however, that no amendment of the Plan shall be effective to the extent that the
amendment would be considered a “material modification” (as that 

  

 IX-1 

 
term is defined in Section 409A) of the Pre-409A Program and would, as a result, cause the Pre-409A Program to be subject to Section 409A. An
Employer (other than the Company) shall not have the right to amend the Plan. 
 9.3 Termination: The Company may
terminate the Plan, either as to its participation or as to the participation of one or more Employers. If the Plan is terminated with respect to fewer than all of the Employers, the Plan shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Employees of
the remaining Employers. 
  

 IX-2 

 ARTICLE X. 
 ERISA Plan Structure 
 This Plan document in conjunction with the plan document(s)
for the 409A Program encompasses three separate plans within the meaning of ERISA, as are set forth in subsections (a), (b) and (c). This division into separate plans shall be effective as of July 1, 1996; previously the plans set forth in
subsections (b) and (c) were a single plan within the meaning of ERISA. 
 (a) Excess Benefit
Plan: An excess benefit plan within the meaning of section 3(36) of ERISA, maintained solely for the purpose of providing benefits for Salaried Plan participants in excess of the limitations on benefits imposed by section 415 of the Code.

 (b) Excess Compensation High Hat Plan: A plan maintained by the Company primarily for the purpose
of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of sections 201(2) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. The plan provides benefits for Salaried Plan participants in excess of the limitations
imposed by section 401(a)(17) of the Code on benefits under the Salaried Plan (after taking into account any benefits under the excess benefit plan). For ERISA reporting purposes, this portion of PEP may be referred to as the PepsiCo Pension
Equalization Plan I. 
 (c) Preservation Top Hat Plan: A plan maintained by the Company primarily for
the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of sections 201(2) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. The plan provides grandfather benefits to those Salaried Plan 

  

 X-1 

 
participants described in section 5.2(a) hereof, by preserving for them the pre-1989 level of benefit accrual that was in effect before the Salaried
Plan’s amendment effective January 1, 1989 (after taking into account any benefits under the Excess Benefit Plan and Excess Compensation Top Hat Plan). For ERISA reporting purposes, this portion of PEP shall be referred to as the PepsiCo
Pension Equalization Plan II. 
 Benefits under this Plan shall be allocated first to the Excess Benefit Plan, to the extent of benefits paid
for the purpose indicated in (a) above; then any remaining benefits shall be allocated to the Excess Compensation Top Hat Plan, to the extent of benefits paid for the purpose indicated in (b) above; then any remaining benefits shall be
allocated to the Preservation Top Hat Plan. These three plans are severable for any and all purposes as directed by the Company.

 ARTICLE XI. 
 Applicable Law 
 All questions pertaining to the construction, validity and effect
of the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of ERISA. In the event ERISA is not applicable or does not preempt state law, the laws of the state of New York shall govern. 
 If any provision of this Plan is, or is hereafter declared to be, void, voidable, invalid or otherwise unlawful, the remainder of the
Plan shall not be affected thereby.

 APPENDIX 
 Foreword 
 This Appendix sets forth additional provisions applicable to individuals
specified in the Articles of this Appendix. In any case where there is a conflict between the Appendix and the main text of the Plan, the Appendix shall govern. 

 ARTICLE A  
 Accruals for 1993 and 1994 
 This Article A of the Appendix shall be effective on
the date the Plan is adopted. 
 A.1 Accruals for 1993 and 1994: This section shall apply to any individual:
(i) who is a Salaried Plan Participant and employed by the PepsiCo Organization on December 31, 1993, (ii) whose Salaried Plan Pension is vested during 1993 (or would become vested in 1994 if his Service included the assumed period of
continued service specified in (a)(1) below), and (iii) whose minimum 1993 Pension in subsection (a) below is not derived solely from that portion of the Plan described in (c) of Article X. In determining the amount of the 1993
and 1994 Pension amounts for any such individual, the provisions set forth in subsections (a) and (b) below shall apply. 
 (a) Minimum 1993 Pension: Any individual who is covered by this section shall accrue a minimum 1993 Pension as of December 31, 1993. In determining the amount of such individual’s minimum 1993
Pension, the following shall apply. 
 (1) An individual’s Service and Credited Service as of the end
of 1993 shall be assumed to equal the respective Service and Credited Service he would have if his Service continued through December 31, 1994. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the assumed period of continued Service shall be less to the
extent the Corporation’s human resource records on December 31, 1993 reflect a scheduled termination date in 1994 for such individual. In this case, the individual’s assumed period of continued service shall be the portion of 1994
that ends with such scheduled termination date. 
  

 A-1 

 (2) An individual’s Highest Average Monthly Earnings as of the end
of 1993 shall be adjusted by the actuary’s salary scale assumption which is used under the Salaried Plan, so that they equal the amount such scale projects for the individual as of the end of 1994. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
following special rules shall apply. 
 (i) A higher salary scale assumption shall be used for anyone whose
projected 1994 earnings as reflected on the “Special PEP Salary Scale” of the PepsiCo Benefits Department on December 31, 1993 are higher than would be assumed under the first sentence of this paragraph. In this case, the
individual’s 1993 earnings shall be adjusted using such higher salary scale. 
 (ii) In the case of an
individual whose assumed period of service under paragraph (1) above is less than all of 1994, the salary adjustment under the preceding provisions of this paragraph shall be reduced to the amount that would apply if the individual had no
earnings after his scheduled termination date. 
 (3) An individual’s attained age as of the end of
1993 shall be assumed to be the age he would have at the end of the assumed period of continued service applicable under paragraph (1) above. 
 Any individual who is covered by this section, and who is not otherwise vested as of December 31, 1993, shall be vested as of such date in both his Pension (determined without regard to this subsection) and his
minimum 1993 Pension. For purposes of this subsection, Code section 401(a)(17) shall be applied in 1993 by giving effect to the amendments to such Code section made by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Amendments of 1993. 
  

 A-2 

 (b) Determination of 1994 Accrual: If a participant in the
Salaried Plan accrues a minimum 1993 Pension under subsection (a) above, the amount of any PEP Pension for 1994 that accrues shall be only the amount by which the PEP Pension that would otherwise accrue for 1994 exceeds his minimum 1993 Pension
under subsection (a). 
  

 A-3 

 ARTICLE B 
 Plan Document Applicable to Pre-2005 Participants 
 B.1 Scope: This Article
supplements the main portion of the Plan document with respect to the rights and benefits of Pre-2005 Participants. 
 B.2
Definitions: Words or phrases appearing in this Article with initial capitals shall have the meaning set forth in the main body of the Plan. 
 B.3 Applicability of Plan Document: Except as set forth in subsection B.4 below, the provisions of the Plan shall apply in all respects to Pre-2005 Participants. 
 B.4 Determination of Pre-2005 Participant Benefit: If a Pension becomes payable to or on behalf of a Pre-2005 Participant, the
following Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 contained in this Section B.4 shall replace Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 of the main Plan document, and the amount of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension shall be determined under Section 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3
below (whichever is applicable), subject to any adjustments required under Sections 4.6(b), 5.4 and 5.5 of the main Plan document: 
 “5.1 PEP Pension: 
 (a) Same Form as Salaried Plan: If a
Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension will be paid in the same form and will commence as of the same time as his pension under the Salaried Plan, then his Pension hereunder shall be the difference between: 
 (1) His Total Pension expressed in such form and payable as of such time, minus  
  

 B-1 

 (2) His Salaried Plan Pension expressed in such form and payable as of
such time. 
 (b) Different Form than Salaried Plan: If a Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension will be
paid in a different form (whether in whole or in part) or will commence as of a different time than his pension under the Salaried Plan, his Pension shall be the product of: 
 (1) The amount of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Total Pension expressed in the form and payable as of such time as
applies to his Pension under this Plan, multiplied by 
 (2) A fraction, the numerator of
which is the value of his Total Pension reduced by the value of his Salaried Plan Pension, and the denominator of which is the value of his Total Pension (with value determined on a reasonable and consistent basis, in the discretion of
the Plan Administrator, with respect to similarly situated employees). 
 (c) Definitions: The
following definitions apply for purposes of this section. 
 (1) A Pre-2005 Participant’s “Total
Pension” means the greater of: 
 (i) The amount of the Pre-2005 Participant’s pension determined
under the terms of the Salaried Plan, but without regard to: (A) the limitations imposed by sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code (as such limitations are interpreted and applied under the Salaried Plan), and (B) the actuarial adjustment
under Section 5.7(d) of the Salaried Plan; or 
  

 B-2 

 (ii) The amount (if any) of the Pre-2005 Participant’s PEP
Guarantee determined under Section 5.2. 
 In making this comparison, the benefits in subparagraphs (i) and
(ii) above shall be calculated with reference to the specific form and time of payment that is applicable. If the applicable form of payment is a lump sum, the Actuarial Equivalent factors in Section 2.1(b)(2) shall apply for purposes of
subparagraph (i) in lieu of those in the Salaried Plan. 
 (2) A Pre-2005 Participant’s
“Salaried Plan Pension” means the amount of the Pre-2005 Participant’s pension determined under the terms of the Salaried Plan. 
 5.2 PEP Guarantee: A Pre-2005 Participant who is eligible under subsection (a) below shall be entitled to a PEP Guarantee benefit determined under subsection (b) below. In the case of other Pre-2005
Participants, the PEP Guarantee shall not apply. 
 (a) Eligibility: A Pre-2005 Participant shall be
covered by this section if the Pre-2005 Participant has 1988 pensionable earnings from an Employer of at least $75,000. For purposes of this section, “1988 pensionable earnings” means the Pre-2005 Participant’s remuneration for the
1988 calendar year, within the meaning of the Salaried Plan as in effect in 1988. “1988 pensionable earnings” does not include remuneration from an entity attributable to any period when that entity was not an Employer. 
  

 B-3 

 (b) PEP Guarantee Formula: The amount of a Pre-2005
Participant’s PEP Guarantee shall be determined under the applicable formula in paragraph (1), subject to the special rules in paragraph (2). 
 (1) Formulas: The amount of a Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension under this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with subparagraph (i) below. However, if the Pre-2005
Participant was actively employed by the PepsiCo Organization in a classification eligible for the Salaried Plan prior to July 1, 1975, the amount of his Pension under this paragraph shall be the greater of the amounts determined under
subparagraphs (i) and (ii), provided that subparagraph (ii)(B) shall not apply in determining the amount of a Vested Pension. 
 (i) Formula A: The Pension amount under this subparagraph shall be: 
 (A) 3 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Highest Average Monthly Earnings for the first 10 years of Credited Service, plus 
 (B) 1 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Highest Average Monthly Earnings for each year of Credited Service in excess of 10 years, less 
 (C) 1-2/3 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount multiplied by years of Credited
Service not in excess of 30 years. 
  

 B-4 

 In determining the amount of a Vested Pension under this Formula A, the Pension
shall first be calculated on the basis of (I) the Credited Service the Pre-2005 Participant would have earned had he remained in the employ of the Employer until his Normal Retirement Age, and (II) his Highest Average Monthly Earnings and
Primary Social Security Amount at his Severance from Service Date, and then shall be reduced by multiplying the resulting amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Pre-2005 Participant’s actual years of Credited Service on his
Severance from Service Date and the denominator of which is the years of Credited Service he would have earned had he remained in the employ of an Employer until his Normal Retirement Age. 
 (ii) Formula B: The Pension amount under this subparagraph shall be the greater of (A) or (B) below:

 (A) 1-1/2 percent of Highest Average Monthly Earnings times the number of years of Credited Service, less
50 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount, or 
 (B) 3 percent of Highest
Average Monthly Earnings times the number of years of Credited Service up to 15 years, less 50 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Primary Social Security Amount. 
  

 B-5 

 In determining the amount of a Disability Pension under Formula A or B above, the
Pension shall be calculated on the basis of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Credited Service (determined in accordance with Section 3.3(d)(3) of the Salaried Plan), and his Highest Average Monthly Earnings and Primary Social Security Amount at
the date of disability. 
 (2) Calculation: The amount of the PEP Guarantee shall be determined
pursuant to paragraph (1) above, subject to the following special rules: 
 (i) Surviving Eligible
Spouse’s Annuity: Subject to subparagraph (iii) below and the last sentence of this subparagraph, if the Pre-2005 Participant has an Eligible Spouse, the Pre-2005 Participant’s Eligible Spouse shall be entitled to receive a
survivor annuity equal to 50 percent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s Annuity under this section, with no corresponding reduction in such Annuity for the Pre-2005 Participant. Annuity payments to a surviving Eligible Spouse shall begin on the
first day of the month coincident with or following the Pre-2005 Participant’s death and shall end with the last monthly payment due prior to the Eligible Spouse’s death. If the Eligible Spouse is more than 10 years younger than the
Pre-2005 Participant, the survivor benefit payable under this subparagraph shall be adjusted as provided below. 
 (A) For each full year more than 10 but less than 21 that the surviving Eligible Spouse is younger than the Pre-2005 Participant, the survivor benefit payable to such spouse shall be reduced by 0.8 percent. 
  

 B-6 

 (B) For each full year more than 20 that the surviving Eligible Spouse
is younger than the Pre-2005 Participant, the survivor benefit payable to such spouse shall be reduced by an additional 0.4 percent. 
 (ii) Reductions: The following reductions shall apply in determining a Pre-2005 Participant’s PEP Guarantee. 
 (A) If the Pre-2005 Participant will receive an Early Retirement Pension, the payment amount shall be reduced by 3/12ths of 1 percent for each month by which the benefit commencement date
precedes the date the Pre-2005 Participant would attain his Normal Retirement Date. 
 (B) If the Pre-2005
Participant is entitled to a Vested Pension, the payment amount shall be reduced to the Actuarial Equivalent of the amount payable at his Normal Retirement Date (if payment commences before such date), and the Section 4.6(b) reductions for any
Pre-Retirement Spouse’s coverage shall apply. 
 (C) This clause applies if the Pre-2005 Participant
will receive his Pension in a form that provides an Eligible Spouse benefit, continuing for the life of the surviving spouse, that is 

  

 B-7 

 
greater than that provided under subparagraph (i). In this instance, the Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the
total value of the benefit payable on the Pre-2005 Participant’s behalf is the Actuarial Equivalent of the Pension otherwise payable under the foregoing provisions of this section. 
 (D) This clause applies if the Pre-2005 Participant will receive his Pension in a form that provides a survivor annuity
for a beneficiary who is not his Eligible Spouse. In this instance, the Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the total value of the benefit payable on the Pre-2005 Participant’s behalf is the Actuarial
Equivalent of a Single Life Annuity for the Pre-2005 Participant’s life. 
 (E) This clause applies if
the Pre-2005 Participant will receive his Pension in a Annuity form that includes inflation protection described in Section 6.2(b). In this instance, the Pre-2005 Participant’s Pension under this section shall be reduced so that the total
value of the benefit payable on the Pre-2005 Participant’s behalf is the Actuarial Equivalent of the elected Annuity without such protection. 
 (iii) Lump Sum Conversion: The amount of the Retirement Pension determined under this section for a Pre-2005 Participant whose Retirement Pension will be distributed in the form of a

  

 B-8 

 
lump sum shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Pre-2005 Participant’s PEP Guarantee determined under this section, taking into account the value of
any survivor benefit under subparagraph (i) above and any early retirement reductions under subparagraph (ii)(A) above. 
 5.3 Amount of Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension: The monthly amount of the Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension payable to a surviving Eligible Spouse under Section 4.6 shall be determined under subsection (a) below.

 (a) Calculation: An Eligible Spouse’s Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension shall be the
difference between: 
 (1) The Eligible Spouse’s Total Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension,
minus 
 (2) The Eligible Spouse’s Salaried Plan Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension.

 (b) Definitions: The following definitions apply for purposes of this section. 
 (1) An Eligible Spouse’s “Total Pre-Retirement Spouse’s Pension” means the greater of: 

(i) The amount of the Eligible Spouse’s pre-retirement spouse’s pension determined under the terms of the
Salaried Plan, but without regard to: (A) the limitations imposed by sections 401(a)(17) and 415 of the Code (as such limitations are interpreted and applied under the Salaried Plan), and (B) the actuarial adjustment under
Section 5.7(d) of the Salaried Plan; or
