   5.                  Limited Waiver of Specified Defaults and Expected Defaults.  Borrower has failed (i) to comply with the Loan Turnover Rate covenant as of the calendar months ending November 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017 as required pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) to comply with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant as of the calendar months ending December 31, 2017 and January 31, 2018 as required pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Credit Agreement and (iii) to pay in full the obligations under the Carlisle Subordinated Debt Documents on or prior to December 10, 2017, as required pursuant to Section 8.1(n) of the Credit Agreement, each of which constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement (the “Specified Defaults”) and certain of which Borrower was previously notified of pursuant to that certain letter from Lender to Borrower dated February 27, 2018.

Lender hereby waives compliance by the Borrower with respect to the Specified Defaults and Expected Defaults only.  The Lender’s waiver of non-compliance with the Credit Agreement is limited to the specific instance of the Specified Defaults and the Expected Defaults and shall not be deemed a waiver of or consent to any other failure to comply with the terms of the Credit Agreement.  Such waiver shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of any right or remedies which the Lender may have or be entitled to with respect to any other provision of the Credit Agreement.  The waiver is for these particular instances and shall not be construed as a waiver of any other presently existing or future Event of Default. 
6.                  Miscellaneous.

on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months.

    	 	7	 

     

    

 

 

The interest installment on any Security that is payable, and
is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that series shall be paid to the Person
in whose name said Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record
date for such interest installment. In the event that any Security of a particular series or portion thereof is called for redemption
and the redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment Date and prior to such Interest
Payment Date, interest on such Security will be paid upon presentation and surrender of such Security as provided in Section 3.03.

 

Any interest on any Security that is payable, but is not punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of the same series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”)
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular record date by virtue of having been such
holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

 

(1)         The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities (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 such Security 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 not be more than 15 nor less
than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice
of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date and, in the name and at the
expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor
to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register
(as hereinafter defined), 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 mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons
in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date.

 

(2)         The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any Securities 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.

    	 	8	 

     

    

 

Unless otherwise set forth in a Board Resolution or one or more
indentures supplemental hereto establishing the terms of any series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the term “regular
record date” as used in this Section with respect to a series of Securities and any Interest Payment Date for such series
shall mean either the fifteenth day of the month immediately preceding the month in which an Interest Payment Date established
for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest Payment Date is the first day of a month, or the
first day of the month in which an Interest Payment Date established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur,
if such Interest Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a month, whether or not such date is a Business Day.

 

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

 

Section 2.04         Execution
and Authentication.

 

The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by one
of its Officers. Signatures may be in the form of a manual or facsimile signature.

 

The Company may use the facsimile signature of any Person who
shall have been an Officer, notwithstanding the fact that at the time the Securities shall be authenticated and delivered or disposed
of such Person shall have ceased to be such an officer of the Company. The Securities may contain such notations, legends or endorsements
required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication by the Trustee.

 

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated manually by
an authorized signatory of the Trustee, or by an Authenticating Agent. Such signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security
so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any
series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company for the authentication
and delivery of such Securities, signed by an Officer, and the Trustee in accordance with such written order shall authenticate
and deliver such Securities.

 

In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional
responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the form and terms thereof have been
established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

 

The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities
if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under
the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Section 2.05         Registration
of Transfer and Exchange.

 

(a)          Securities
of any series may be exchanged upon presentation thereof at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose in
the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, for other Securities of such series of authorized denominations, and
for a like aggregate principal amount, upon payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation
thereto, all as provided in this Section. In respect of any Securities so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute,
the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities of the same
series that the Securityholder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

(b)          The
Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency designated for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City
and State of New York, or such other location designated by the Company, a register or registers (herein referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register the Securities
and the transfers of Securities as in this Article provided and which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the
Trustee. The registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and transfer of Securities as herein provided shall be appointed
as authorized by Board Resolution (the “Security Registrar”).

 

Upon surrender for transfer of any Security at the office or
agency of the Company designated for such purpose, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or
agency shall deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities of the same series as the Security
presented for a like aggregate principal amount.

 

All Securities presented or surrendered for exchange or registration
of transfer, as provided in this Section, shall be accompanied (if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar) by a written
instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the Security Registrar, duly executed by the registered
holder or by such holder’s duly authorized attorney in writing.

 

(c)          Except
as provided pursuant to Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution, and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, or established
in one or more indentures supplemental to this Indenture, no service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer
of Securities, or issue of new Securities in case of partial redemption of any series, but the Company may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.06,
Section 3.03(b) and Section 9.04 not involving any transfer.

 

(d)          The
Company shall not be required (i) to issue, exchange or register the transfer of any Securities during a period beginning at the
opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of less than all the Outstanding Securities
of the same series and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, nor (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange
any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for redemption, other than the unredeemed portion of any such Securities
being redeemed in part. The provisions of this Section 2.05 are, with respect to any Global Security, subject to Section 2.11 hereof.

    	 	10	 

     

    

 

 

Section 2.06         Temporary
Securities.

 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series,
the Company may execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities (printed, lithographed or typewritten)
of any authorized denomination. Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of the definitive Securities in lieu
of which they are issued, but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all
as may be determined by the Company. Every temporary Security of any series shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated
by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities
of such series. Without unnecessary delay the Company will execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon
any or all temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor (without charge to the holders), at the
office or agency of the Company designated for the purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate
principal amount of definitive Securities of such series, unless the Company advises the Trustee to the effect that definitive
Securities need not be executed and furnished until further notice from the Company. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities
of such series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series authenticated
and delivered hereunder.

 

Section 2.07         Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities.

 

In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated
or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company (subject to the next succeeding sentence) shall execute, and upon the Company’s
request the Trustee (subject as aforesaid) shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a number
not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for
the Security so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Security shall furnish to the Company
and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction,
loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of the applicant’s Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may authenticate any such substituted
Security and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the Company. Upon the issuance of any
substituted Security, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

 

In case any Security that has matured or is about to mature
shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize
the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security) if the applicant for such payment
shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as they may require to save them harmless, and, in case
of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Company and the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of
such Security and of the ownership thereof.

    	 	11	 

     

    

 

Every replacement Security issued pursuant to the provisions
of this Section shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Security shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of the same series duly issued hereunder. All Securities shall be
held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment
of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) any and all other rights or remedies,
notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of
negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

 

Section 2.08         Cancellation.

 

All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption,
exchange or registration of transfer shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying agent, be delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and no Securities shall be issued in lieu thereof except
as expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. In the absence of such request the Trustee may dispose
of canceled Securities in accordance with its standard procedures and deliver a certificate of disposition to the Company. If the
Company shall otherwise acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction
of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

Section 2.09         Benefits
of Indenture.

 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied,
shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the Securities any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant, condition or provision herein contained;
all such covenants, conditions and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders of the Securities.

 

Section 2.10         Authenticating
Agent.

 

So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding
there may be an Authenticating Agent for any or all such series of Securities which the Trustee shall have the right to appoint.
Said Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued
upon exchange, transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. All references in this
Indenture to the authentication of Securities by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating Agent
for such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation that has a combined capital
and surplus, as most recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it is organized
or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under such laws to conduct such
business and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately.

 

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written
notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time (and upon request by the Company shall) terminate
the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company.
Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility of any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor
Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder,
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder as if originally named as an Authenticating
Agent pursuant hereto.

Section 2.11         Global
Securities.

 

(a)          If
the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the Securities of a particular series are to be issued as a Global Security,
then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.04, authenticate and deliver, a Global Security
that (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, all of the Outstanding
Securities of such series, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the
Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following
effect: “Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11 of the Indenture, this Security may be transferred, in whole but not
in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.”

 

(b)          Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.05, the Global Security of a series may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner
provided in Section 2.05, only to another nominee of the Depositary for such series, or to a successor Depositary for such series
selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

(c)          If
at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary
for such series or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange
Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed by the Company within
90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, or if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and the Company has received a request from the Depositary, this Section 2.11 shall no longer be
applicable to the Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee will authenticate
and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security.
In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be represented by a Global
Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall no longer apply to the Securities of such series. In such event the
Company will execute and, subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate evidencing such
determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without
coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security
of such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for such Securities in definitive
registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Securities
in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.11(c) shall be registered in
such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants
or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons
in whose names such Securities are so registered.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS

 

Section 3.01         Redemption.

 

The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder
on and after the dates and in accordance with the terms established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

 

Section 3.02         Notice
of Redemption.

 

(a)          In
case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities of any series
in accordance with any right the Company reserved for itself to do so pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the Company shall, or shall
cause the Trustee to, give notice of such redemption to holders of the Securities of such series to be redeemed by mailing, first
class postage prepaid, a notice of such redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days before the date fixed for redemption
of that series to such holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Security Register, unless a shorter period
is specified in the Securities to be redeemed. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed
to have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice
to the holder of any Security of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not
affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case
of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities
or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance
with any such restriction.

 

Each such notice of redemption shall specify the date fixed
for redemption and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of
the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan,
the City and State of New York, upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for
redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the redemption
is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders
of Securities of that series to be redeemed in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed.

 

In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice
that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and
after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal
to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

(b)          If
less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least 45 days’ notice
(unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date fixed for redemption as to the aggregate
principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Trustee shall select, by lot or in such other manner
as it shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion and that may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal
to one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination
larger than $1,000, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers of
the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part. The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions
signed on its behalf by an Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular
series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of
the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is
to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain
with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable
copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required
under the provisions of this Section.

 

Section 3.03         Payment
Upon Redemption.

 

(a)          If
the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities of the
series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice
at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and interest on such Securities
or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in
the payment of such redemption price and accrued interest with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation
and surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the notice, said
Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption price for such series, together with interest accrued thereon
to the date fixed for redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an interest payment date, the interest installment payable
on such date shall be payable to the registered holder at the close of business on the applicable record date pursuant to Section
2.03).

 

(b)          Upon
presentation of any Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall deliver to the holder thereof, at the expense of the
Company, a new Security of the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the
Security so presented.

 

Section 3.04         Sinking
Fund.

 

The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable
to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01
for Securities of such series.

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for
by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment
in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional
sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment
may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 3.05. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities
of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

 

Section 3.05         Satisfaction
of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.

 

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

 

Section 3.06         Redemption
of Securities for Sinking Fund.

 

Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date
for any series of Securities (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the Company will deliver to the Trustee
an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms
of the series, the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant
to Section 3.05 and the basis for such credit and will, together with such Officers’ Certificate, deliver to the Trustee
any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the
Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 3.02 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 3.02. Such notice having
been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 3.03.

Section 4.01         Payment
of Principal, Premium and Interest.

 

The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of that series at the time and place and in the manner provided

Section 4.02         Maintenance
of Office or Agency.

 

So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding,
the Company agrees to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, with respect to
each such series and at such other location or locations as may be designated as provided in this Section 4.02, where (i) Securities
of that series may be presented for payment, (ii) Securities of that series may be presented as herein above authorized for registration
of transfer and exchange, and (iii) notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and
this Indenture may be given or served, such designation to continue with respect to such office or agency until the Company shall,
by written notice signed by any officer authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate and delivered to the Trustee, designate
some other office or agency for such purposes or any of them. 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, notices and demands may be
made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive
all such presentations, notices and demands. The Company initially appoints the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee located in
the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York as its paying agent with respect to the Securities.

 

Section 4.03         Paying
Agents.

 

(a)          If
the Company shall appoint one or more paying agents for all or any series of the Securities, other than the Trustee, the Company
will cause each such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section:

 

(1)         that
it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities
of that series (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor of such Securities) in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto;

 

(2)         that
it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor of such Securities) to make any payment
of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series when the same shall be due and payable;

 

(3)         that
it will, at any time during the continuance of any failure referred to in the preceding paragraph (a)(2) above, upon the written
request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent; and

 

(4)         that
it will perform all other duties of paying agent as set forth in this Indenture.

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

(b)          If
the Company shall act as its own paying agent with respect to any series of the Securities, it will on or before each due date
of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay such principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming
due on Securities of that series until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and
will promptly notify the Trustee of such action, or any failure (by it or any other obligor on such Securities) to take such action.
Whenever the Company shall have one or more paying agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with the paying agent a sum sufficient
to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such paying agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify
the Trustee of this action or failure so to act.

 

(c)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section is subject to the
provisions of Section 11.05, and (ii) 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 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 terms and conditions as those upon which such sums
were held by the Company or such paying agent; and, upon such payment by the Company or any paying agent to the Trustee, the Company
or such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

 

Section 4.04         Appointment
to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee.

 

The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in
the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.10, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee
hereunder.

 

Section 4.05         Compliance
with Consolidation Provisions.

 

The Company will not, while any of the Securities remain Outstanding,
consolidate with or merge into any other Person, in either case where the Company is not the survivor of such transaction, or sell
or convey all or substantially all of its property to any other Person unless the provisions of Article Ten hereof are complied
with.

ARTICLE 6

REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

Section 6.01         Events
of Default.

 

(a)          Whenever
used herein with respect to Securities of a particular series, “Event of Default” means any one or more of the following
events that has occurred and is continuing:

 

(1)         the
Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Securities of that series, as and when the same
shall become due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 90 days; provided, however, that a valid extension of
an interest payment period by the Company in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute
a default in the payment of interest for this purpose;

 

(2)         the
Company defaults in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of that series as and when the
same shall become due and payable whether at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise, or in any payment required
by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series; provided, however, that a valid extension of the maturity
of such Securities in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute a default in the payment
of principal or premium, if any;

 

(3)         the
Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements with respect to that series contained in this Indenture
or otherwise established with respect to that series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof (other than a covenant or agreement
that has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of Securities other than such series)
for a period of 90 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and stating that
such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, by registered
or certified mail, or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of that
series at the time Outstanding;

 

(4)         the
Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case, (ii) consents to the entry of an
order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially
all of its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

 

(5)         a
court of competent jurisdiction enters an order under any Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary
case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all or substantially all of its property or (iii) orders the liquidation of
the Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days.

    	 	20	 

     

    

 

(b)          In
each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above), unless the principal of
all the Securities of that series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than
25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by such Securityholders), may declare the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid
interest on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become
and shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above occurs, the principal
of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of that series shall automatically be immediately due and payable without
any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the holders of the Securities.

 

(c)          At
any time after the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of that series shall
have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained
or entered as hereinafter provided, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series then
Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences
if: (i) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all
the Securities of that series and the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any and all Securities of that series that shall have
become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that such
payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate per annum expressed in the Securities
of that series to the date of such payment or deposit) and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06, and (ii) any and
all Events of Default under the Indenture with respect to such series, other than the nonpayment of principal on (and premium,
if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on Securities of that series that shall not have become due by their terms, shall have
been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.06.

 

No such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect
any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

(d)          In
case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right with respect to Securities of that series under this Indenture and such
proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall
have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings, the
Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies
and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

 

Section 6.02         Collection
of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 

(a)          The
Company covenants that (i) in case it shall default in the payment of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of a
series, or in any payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series as and when the same
shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 90 Business Days, or (ii) in case it shall
default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of a series when the same shall have
become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of a series or upon redemption or upon declaration or otherwise
then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities of that
series, the whole amount that then shall have been become due and payable on all such Securities for principal (and premium, if
any) or interest, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent
that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum
expressed in the Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06.

    	 	21	 

     

    

 

(b)          If
the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums
so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment
or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of that series and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed
to be payable in the manner provided by law or equity out of the property of the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of
that series, wherever situated.

 

(c)          In
case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition or judicial
proceedings affecting the Company, or its creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power to intervene in such proceedings
and take any action therein that may be permitted by the court and shall (except as may be otherwise provided by law) be entitled
to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee and of the holders of Securities of such series allowed for the entire amount due and payable by the Company under the
Indenture at the date of institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by the Company
after such date, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to distribute
the same after the deduction of the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in
bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the holders of Securities of such series to make such payments to
the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Securityholders,
to pay to the Trustee any amount due it under Section 7.06.

 

(d)          All
rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the terms established with respect to Securities
of that series, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of such Securities, or the production thereof at any
trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 payment to the Trustee of any amounts
due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Securities of such series.

 

In case of an Event of Default hereunder, the Trustee may in
its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings
as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy
or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise
of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture
or by law.

    	 	22	 

     

    

 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition affecting the Securities of that series or the rights of any holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote
in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding.

 

Section 6.03         Application
of Moneys or Property Collected.

 

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

 

FIRST: To the payment of reasonable costs and expenses of collection
and of all amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06;

 

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon
Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such

Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

 

THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company
or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto as requested by the Company.

by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon

thereof with respect to the Securities of such series specifying such Event of Default, as hereinbefore provided; (ii) the holders
of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have made written request
upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder; (iii) such holder or holders
shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby; (iv) the Trustee for 90 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall
have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and (v) during such 90 day period, the holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Securities of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

    	 	23	 

     

    

 

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary or
any other provisions of this Indenture, the right of any holder of any Security to receive payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest on such Security, as therein provided, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security (or
in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
respective dates or redemption date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder and by accepting a Security
hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and covenanted by the taker and holder of every Security of such series with every
other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any
manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
holders of any other of such Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such holder, or
to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of
all holders of Securities of such series. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every
Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 

Section 6.05         Rights
and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

 

(a)          Except
as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all powers and remedies given by this Article to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall,
to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee
or the holders of the Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants
and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to such Securities.

 

(b)          No
delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event
of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.04, every power and remedy given by this
Article or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient,
by the Trustee or by the Securityholders.

 

Section 6.06         Control
by Securityholders.

 

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, 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 such series; provided, however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law
or with this Indenture. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such
direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding
so directed, subject to the Trustee’s duties under the Trust Indenture Act, would involve the Trustee in personal liability
or might be unduly prejudicial to the Securityholders not involved in the proceeding. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding affected thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may
on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants
contained herein or established pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in
the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any of the Securities of that series as and when the same
shall become due by the terms of such Securities otherwise than by acceleration (unless such default has been cured and a sum sufficient
to pay all matured installments of interest and principal and any premium has been deposited with the Trustee (in accordance with
Section 6.01(c)). Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture
and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

    	 	24	 

     

    

 

Section 6.07         Undertaking
to Pay Costs.

 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any
Securities by such holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require,
in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action
taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit,
and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but
the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder,
or group of Securityholders, holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or
to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on any Security of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to this
Indenture.

 

ARTICLE 7

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

Section 7.01         Certain
Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

 

(a)          The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing of all
Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with respect
to the Securities of such series such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of
a series has occurred (that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise with respect to Securities of that series
such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a
prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

 

(b)          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:

    	 	25	 

     

    

 

(i)          prior
to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing or waiving of all such
Events of Default with respect to that series that may have occurred:

 

(A)         the
duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of such series be determined solely by the express provisions
of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the Securities of such series except for the performance
of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be
read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

 

(B)         in
the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may with respect to the Securities of such series conclusively
rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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
that 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 requirement of this Indenture;

 

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

 

(iii)        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 not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding
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 that series; and

 

(iv)        None
of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable
ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Indenture
or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

 

Section 7.02         Certain
Rights of Trustee.

 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

 

(a)          The
Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security or other paper or document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

 

(b)          Any
request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution or an
instrument signed in the name of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company (unless other evidence in respect thereof
is specifically prescribed herein);

    	 	26	 

     

    

 

(c)          The
Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

 

(d)          The
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order
or direction of any of the Securityholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have
offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein
or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default with respect to a series of the Securities (that has not been cured or waived), to exercise with respect to Securities
of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

 

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

 

(f)          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, consent, order, approval, bond, security, or other papers or documents, unless requested
in writing so to do by the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the particular
series affected thereby (determined as provided in Section 8.04); provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time
to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the
opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the
Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such costs, expenses or liabilities as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable
expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Company upon
demand; and

 

(g)          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.

 

In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge
of any Default or Event of Default except (1) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Sections 6.01(a)(1), 6.01(a)(2) and 4.01
hereof or (2) any Default or Event of Default of which the Trustee shall have received written notification in the manner set forth
in this Indenture or a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have obtained actual knowledge. Delivery of reports, information
and documents to the Trustee under Section 5.03 is for informational purposes only and the information and the Trustee’s
receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information
contained therein including the Company’s compliance with any of their covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled
to rely conclusively on an Officers’ Certificate).

    	 	27	 

     

    

 

Section 7.03         Trustee
Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or Securities.

 

(a)          The
recitals contained herein and in the Securities shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility
for the correctness of the same.

 

(b)          The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities.

 

(c)          The
Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any of the Securities or of the proceeds of such
Securities, or for the use or application of any moneys paid over by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture
or established pursuant to Section 2.01, or for the use or application of any moneys received by any paying agent other than the
Trustee.

 

Section 7.04         May
Hold Securities.

 

The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee, paying agent or Security Registrar.

 

Section 7.05         Moneys
Held in Trust.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, all moneys received
by the Trustee 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 moneys received by it hereunder except such as it may agree with the Company to pay thereon.

 

Section 7.06         Compensation
and Reimbursement.

 

(a)          The
Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such reasonable compensation (which shall
not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as the Company and the Trustee
may from time to time agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the
exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation
and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith and except as the Company and Trustee may from time to time agree in writing.
The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold it harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee and arising out of
or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending
itself against any claim of liability in the premises.

    	 	28	 

     

    

 

(b)          The
obligations of the Company under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be
secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except
funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities.

 

Section 7.07         Reliance
on Officers’ Certificate.

 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the
administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it reasonably necessary or desirable that a matter be
proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence
in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee,
be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee and such certificate,
in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

 

Section 7.08         Disqualification;
Conflicting Interests.

 

If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest”
within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply with
the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

 

Section 7.09         Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility.

 

There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities
issued hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or other Person permitted to act as
trustee by the Securities and Exchange Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined
capital and surplus of at least fifty million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal,
state, territorial, or District of Columbia authority.

 

If such corporation or other Person publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or other Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital
and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Company may not, nor may any Person directly
or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 7.10.

    	 	29	 

     

    

 

Section 7.10         Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)          The
Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed may at any time resign with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving
written notice thereof to the Company and by transmitting notice of resignation by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Securityholders
of such series, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register.

 

Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall
promptly appoint a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by
order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor
trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee with respect to Securities of such series, or any Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide holder of a Security
or Securities for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the
appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint
a successor trustee.

 

(b)          In
case at any time any one of the following shall occur:

 

(i)          the
Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 7.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder
who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months; or

 

(ii)         the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder; or

 

(iii)        the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding,
or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, 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, the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed
and one copy to the successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at
least six months may, on behalf of that holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any,
as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 

(c)          The
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding may at any time remove
the Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee for such
series with the consent of the Company.

    	 	30	 

     

    

 

(d)          Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of a series pursuant
to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided
in Section 7.11.

 

(e)          Any
successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more series or all
of such series, and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series.

 

Section 7.11         Acceptance
of Appointment By Successor.

 

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

 

(b)          In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) 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, (ii) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that
all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to
which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) 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, 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 that no Trustee shall be responsible for any act or failure
to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; 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, such retiring Trustee shall with respect
to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates have no further responsibility
for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture,
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, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the 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.

    	 	31	 

     

    

 

(c)          Upon
request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section,
as the case may be.

 

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

 

(e)          Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Company shall transmit notice of the succession
of such trustee hereunder by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Securityholders, as their names and addresses appear upon
the Security Register. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor
trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense of the Company.

 

Section 7.12         Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions
of Section 7.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee
then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication
and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

 

Section 7.13         Preferential
Collection of Claims Against the Company.

 

The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture
Act, excluding any creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or
been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.

 

Section 7.14         Notice
of Default

 

If any Default or any Event of Default occurs and is continuing
and if such Default or Event of Default is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder
in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act notice of the Default or Event of Default
within 45 days after it occurs and becomes known to the Trustee, unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured; provided,
however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security,
the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or
a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding
of such notice is in the interest of the Securityholders.

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Section 8.01         Evidence
of Action by Securityholders.

 

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of
a majority or specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series may take any action (including
the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that
at the time of taking any such action the holders of such majority or specified percentage of that series have joined therein may
be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such holders of Securities of that series
in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing.

 

If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders of any
series any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Company may, at its option,
as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series for the determination of Securityholders
entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Company shall
have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on
the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite
proportion of Outstanding Securities of that series have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities of that series shall be computed
as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record
date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six
months after the record date.

 

Section 8.02         Proof
of Execution by Securityholders.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution
of any instrument by a Securityholder (such proof will not require notarization) or his agent or proxy and proof of the holding
by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:

 

(a)          The
fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in any reasonable manner acceptable to the Trustee.

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

(b)          The
ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security Registrar
thereof.

 

The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter
referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.

 

Section 8.03         Who
May be Deemed Owners.

 

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of
any Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Security Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name
such Security shall be registered upon the books of the Company as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security
shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar)
for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 2.03) interest
on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

Section 8.04         Certain
Securities Owned by Company Disregarded.

 

In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate
principal amount of Securities of a particular series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture,
the Securities of that series that are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series or by any Person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities
of that series shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for
the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities
of such series that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. The Securities so owned that have been pledged
in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section, if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction
of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not a Person directly
or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor.
In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to
the Trustee.

 

Section 8.05         Actions
Binding on Future Securityholders.

 

At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee,
as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount
of the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder of a Security of
that series that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may,
by filing written notice with the Trustee, and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as
concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding
upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange therefor, on registration
of transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security.
Any action taken by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series
specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively
binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the holders of all the Securities of that series.

own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this
Section may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders of any of the Securities at the time
Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02.

shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

 

Section 9.03         Effect
of Supplemental Indentures.

 

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to
the provisions of this Article or of Section 10.01, this Indenture shall, with respect to such series, be and be deemed to be modified

Affected by Supplemental Indentures.

 

Securities of any series affected by a supplemental indenture,
authenticated and delivered after the execution of such supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of
Section 10.01, may bear a notation in form approved by the Company, provided such form meets the requirements of any securities
exchange upon which such series may be listed, as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall
so determine, new Securities of that series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, to any modification
of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee and
delivered in exchange for the Securities of that series then Outstanding.

 

Section 9.05         Execution
of Supplemental Indentures.

authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of
Securityholders required to consent thereto as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental
indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture
or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be obligated to enter into such supplemental indenture.
The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, will be entitled to receive and will be fully protected in relying upon
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article
is authorized or permitted by, and conforms to, the terms of this Article and that it is proper for the Trustee under the provisions
of this Article to join in the execution thereof; provided, however, that such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel
need not be provided in connection with the execution of a supplemental indenture that establishes the terms of a series of Securities
pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

 

Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee
of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall transmit by mail, first class postage
prepaid, a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the Securityholders of all series
affected thereby as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. Any failure of the Trustee to mail such notice,
or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.
