 BACKGROUND 
  
 Reference is made to the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of January 1, 1993, by and among Borrowers and Lender, as amended and restated
on February 28, 1995 (as so amended and as the same may now exist or may hereafter be amended, restated, renewed, replaced, extended, substituted, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”); the Restated and Amended
Factoring Agreement bearing the effective date as of February 1, 1995 (the “AEI Factoring Agreement”) by and between AEI and Lender; the Restated and Amended Factoring Agreement bearing the effective date as of January 1, 1995 (the

Amended Factoring Agreement bearing the effective date of January 1, 1995 (the “Canada Factoring Agreement”) by and between Canada and Lender; and the Restated and Amended Factoring Agreement bearing the effective date as of January 1,
1995 by and between Arena and Lender (the “Arena Factoring Agreement”; and together with the AEI Factoring Agreement, the ADI Factoring Agreement, the LJN Factoring Agreement and the Canada Factoring Agreement, as the same may now exist or
may hereafter be amended, restated, renewed, replaced, extended, substituted, supplemented or otherwise modified, collectively, the “Factoring Agreements”); and to all of the notes, instruments, guarantees, agreements and other documents
executed and/or delivered in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Factoring Agreements (all of the foregoing, as the same now exist, or may hereafter be amended, restated, renewed, extended, supplemented, substituted, replaced or otherwise
modified, collectively, the “Other Documents”; and together with the Credit Agreement and the Factoring Agreements, collectively, the “Loan Documents”). 
  
 Reference is further made to that certain Waiver and Amendment Agreement dated May 4, 2004 (“Waiver and
Amendment”) among the Borrowers, the Corporate Guarantors and Lender, pursuant to which, among other things, the Term under this Loan Document was amended to terminate on June 20, 2004 and the Borrowers agreed to pay and satisfy in full all of
the Obligations on or before June 20, 2004 (the “Termination Date”). 
  

 Borrowers have advised Lender that Borrowers are in active negotiations with certain financial
institutions to obtain the financing to pay and satisfy in full all of the Obligations. Borrowers have further advised Lender that such negotiations and the documentation of the replacement credit facilities will not be concluded prior to the
Termination Date. Borrowers have requested that Lender extend the Termination Date to August 4, 2004, and as a one-time accommodation to Borrowers, Lender has agreed to do so, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
  
 1. Extension of Termination Date. At the request of Borrowers, as a one-time accommodation and subject to the terms and conditions contained
herein, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Loan Documents, Lender agrees that the Termination Date shall be extended to August 4, 2004. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Credit Agreement or in the
other Loan Documents, Borrowers shall indefeasibly pay and satisfy in full all Obligations of Borrowers to Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents on or before August 4, 2004. 
  
 2. Conditions to Extension of Termination Date. The extension of the
Termination Date set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph is conditioned on compliance by Borrowers and Guarantors with the following terms and conditions: 
  
 (a) On or before June 25, 2004, Borrowers shall provide Lender with a signed commitment letter from a
financial institution of national standing and reputation, providing for, among other things, (i) the refinancing of the Obligations to Lender under the Loan Documents in an amount not less than the Maximum Loan Amount, and (ii) a closing of the
proposed refinancing and payment in full of the aggregate amount of all Obligations outstanding to take place no later than August 4, 2004. The commitment letter shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in all respects, in Lender’s
sole and absolute discretion. Borrowers’ failure to timely provide such proposal letter shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under the Loan Documents. 
  
 (b) The Borrowers have prepared and submitted to Lender a “Domestic Forecast”, annexed hereto as
Exhibit A, reflecting the Borrowers’ projected weekly cash flow through and including the July 25, 2004. Borrowers will supplement the Domestic Forecast through the end of the Term upon Lender’s request and such supplement shall be in form
and content satisfactory to Lender. Borrowers hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that the Borrowers will, on Monday of each week for the immediately prior week, submit to Lender Borrowers’ actual cash flow results for such prior week in the
same format as the “Domestic Forecast”. If, for any such week, the actual weekly cash flow results for the line items identified as Ending Account Balance, GMAC Availability, Gross Total Collateral, Total Investment, Ending
Balances—Net A/R Outstanding, Net Eligible A/R Outstanding, GMAC Drawdowns, Total Disbursements and Remaining Operating Cash, negatively deviate from the projections for such week set forth on Exhibit A by more than ten percent (10%), then such
deviation shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. 
  

 2 

 3. Covenants. 
  
 (a) Lender, Borrowers and Corporate Guarantors acknowledge, confirm and agree that, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in the Loan Documents, the Term shall not be extended or renewed beyond August 4, 2004. 
  
 Borrowers shall pay an extension fee (the “Extension Fee”) of $100,000 upon execution of this Agreement, plus an additional $50,000 if the Obligations are not
paid and satisfied in full on or before July 20, 2004, and plus an additional $50,000 if the Obligations are not paid and satisfied in full on or before August 4, 2004. The Extension Fee shall constitute an Obligation and Lender is hereby authorized
to charge the Extension Fee against the Obligations. The Extension Fee shall be fully earned as of the date hereof and shall not be subject to refund, rebate or proration for any reason whatsoever. 
  
 4. Borrowers’ Acknowledgement and Reaffirmation. 
  
 (a) Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges, confirms and
agrees that as of June 18, 2004, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, owe Lender Obligations in the aggregate principal amount of not less than $18,652,114.07, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and plus all costs, fees, commissions, expenses and
other sums and charges due and owing to the Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Lender (all of the
foregoing is collectively referred to as the “Existing Debt”). Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that as of the date hereof, the Existing Debt is due and owing by the Borrowers jointly and severally to the
Lender without offset, defense or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever. 
  
 (b) Borrowers hereby ratify and confirm the Credit Agreement, the Factoring Agreements and the Other Documents as being valid and binding
obligations of the Borrowers, enforceable against Borrowers in accordance with all of their respective terms as modified hereby. Borrowers hereby confirm that there are no defenses to the performance of any of their obligations under the Credit
Agreement, the Factoring Agreements or any Other Document. Borrowers hereby ratify and confirm Borrowers’ grant to Lender of the first priority perfected liens upon and security interests in their properties and assets heretofore mortgaged,
pledged, granted or assigned to Lender under the Credit Agreement, the Factoring Agreements and the Other Documents, and acknowledge and confirm that such first priority perfected liens and security interests secure and shall continue to secure the
Obligations of Borrowers to Lender, subject only to such prior security interests as are expressly permitted under the Loan Documents. 
  
 5. Guarantor’s Acknowledgement and Reaffirmation. By their execution of this Agreement, Corporate Guarantors hereby ratify and confirm each of
the Other Documents to which each Corporate Guarantor is a party as being its valid and binding obligations, enforceable against such Corporate Guarantor in accordance with all of their respective terms as modified hereby. Each Corporate Guarantor
hereby confirms that there are no defenses to the performance of any of its obligations under any Other Document and expressly acknowledges to Lender that it has no currently existing defense, offset, or counterclaim with respect to any of the
Existing Debt. Each Corporate Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms its grant to Lender of the first priority perfected liens upon and security interests in its properties and assets heretofore 
  

 3 

 mortgaged, pledged, granted or assigned to Lender under the Other Documents, and acknowledges and confirms that such
first priority perfected liens and security interests secure and shall continue to secure the obligations of such Corporate Guarantor to Lender, subject only to such prior security interests as are expressly permitted under the Other Documents.

  
 6. Release. In consideration of the agreements made by
Lender in this Agreement and the performance thereof and other good and valuable consideration, each of the Borrowers and Corporate Guarantors (collectively, the “Releasors”) forever releases and discharges Lender, its affiliates, members,
officers, directors, consultants, agents, attorneys, representatives and employees, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of
money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, specialties, controversies, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, extent, executions, claims and demands whatsoever, in law, admiralty or equity, without defense, offset or counterclaim, which any
Releasor, directly or indirectly, ever had or now or can, shall or may, have against any of the Released Parties for, upon, or by reason of any matter, cause or thing arising under or relating to the Credit Agreement, the Factoring Agreements or any
Other Document and the transactions contemplated therein. In addition to the foregoing, each Releasor agrees to forever refrain and forbear from commencing, assisting, instituting, prosecuting or encouraging others to institute or prosecute any
litigation, action, arbitration, administrative or other proceeding of any kind against any of the Released Parties directly or indirectly arising out of, resulting from or relating in any way to the subject matter of or the fact and course of
conduct underlying the releases granted herein.

been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11
hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive
Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and
if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall
be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
  
 (i) Upon the consummation of a Private Exchange with respect to the Initial Notes pursuant to which Holders of such Initial Notes are offered Private
Exchange Notes in exchange for their Initial Notes, all requirements pertaining to such Initial Notes that Initial Notes issued to certain Holders be issued in global form will still apply, and Private Exchange Notes in global form will be available

 (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section
2.2 hereof or upon receipt of a written request of the Registrar. 
  
 (ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10 and 9.5 hereof).

  
 (iii) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or
Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 (iv) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 (v) Each Holder of a Note agrees to indemnify the Company
and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Note in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States Federal or state securities law.

determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary Participants
or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture,

 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes 
  
 If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a
Note shall provide the Company and the Trustee with evidence to their satisfaction that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of
Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or either of the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the
judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for
their expenses in replacing a Note, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel. Every replacement Note is an additional Obligation of the Company. 
  
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes 
  
 Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled, those delivered for cancellation and those described
in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. 
  
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the
replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
  
 If the Paying
Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) maturing, and the Paying Agent is not
prohibited from paying such money to the Noteholders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 
  
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes 
  
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes
have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company shall be considered as though not
outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Trust Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  
 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes 
  
 Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and
the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company and the Trustee consider appropriate for
temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of
the temporary Notes at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more 

  

 18 

 
temporary Notes, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Notes representing an
equal principal amount of Notes. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Notes. 
  
 Section 2.11 Cancellation 
  
 The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer or exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel and dispose of (subject to the record retention requirements
of the Exchange Act) all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, payment or cancellation according to its normal operating procedures and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company unless the Company directs the
Trustee to deliver canceled Notes to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes they have paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  
 Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest 
  
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Company shall pay defaulted interest (plus interest on
such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) at the rate specified therefor in the Notes in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are Noteholders on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix
or cause to be fixed (or upon the Company’s failure to do so the Trustee shall fix) any such special record date and payment date which specified record date shall not be less than 10 days prior to the payment date for such defaulted interest
and shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each Noteholder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of
defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent 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 so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled to such defaulted interest
as provided in this Section 2.12. 
  
 Section
2.13 CUSIP Numbers 
  
 The Company in issuing the Notes
may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice shall
not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

New York City Time on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is the Paying Agent, the segregated account or separate trust fund maintained by the Company or such Subsidiary pursuant to
Section 2.4) in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is the Paying Agent, the Company or such Subsidiary),
as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Noteholders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 
  
 The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Notes, and they shall pay interest on overdue installments of
interest at the same rate to the extent lawful as provided in Section 2.12. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company or the Paying Agent may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the
United States of America or other domestic or foreign taxing authorities from principal or interest payments hereunder. 
  
 Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency

Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
  
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of their obligations to maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action
the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes are
prohibited (or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto). 
  
 (b) The Company shall, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or

 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
  
 Section
6.01 Events of Default 
  
 “Event of Default”
means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or
regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 
  
 (i) default in the payment of any interest upon any Note when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; 
  
 (ii) default in the payment of the principal of any Notes at its Stated Maturity; 
  
 (iii) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant
or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section 6.1 specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60
days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and a Trust Officer of the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice
specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; 
  
 (iv) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an
involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition
seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or state law, or appointing a Custodian of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up
or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or 
  
 (v) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary
case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of 

  

 22 

 
any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any
applicable Federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a Custodian of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action. 
  
 The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after its knowledge
of the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (iii) of this Section 6.1 and what action the
Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  
 Section 6.02 Acceleration 
  
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(iv) or 6.1(v) occurs, the principal amount of all the Notes shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due
and payable. 
  
 At any time after such acceleration has been made
and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article VI provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company and a
Trust Officer of the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if 
  
 (i) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
  
 (a) all overdue interest on all Notes, 
  
 (b) the principal of any Notes which have become due
otherwise than by such acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Notes, 
  
 (c) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in
such Notes, and 
  
 (d) all sums paid or
advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
  
 (ii) all Events of Default with respect to the Notes, other than the non-payment of the principal of Notes which have become due solely by
such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.4. 
  
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the
Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Noteholder in exercising any right or
remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are, to the extent permitted by law,
cumulative. 
  

 23 

 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults 
  
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive any past or existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note or (ii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section
9.2 cannot be amended without the consent of each Noteholder affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or impair any consequent right. 
  
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority 
  
 Upon
provision of reasonable indemnity to the Trustee satisfactory to the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee, which may conclusively rely on opinions of counsel, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject
to Section 7.1, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Noteholders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. 
  
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits 
  
 A Holder may
not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
  
 (i) the Holder gives to the Trustee previous written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing; 
  
 (ii) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding make a written request to the
Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (iii) such
Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense; 
  
 (iv) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

  
 (v) the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
  
 A Noteholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder.

  
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive
Payment 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or
after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
  
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee 
  

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(i) or (ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of
an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.8. 
  

 24 

 Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim 
  
 The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as
may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and
distribute any money or other securities or property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its
counsel, and any other amounts then due the Trustee under Section 7.8. 
  
 Section 6.10 Priorities 
  
 If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
  
 FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts then due under Section 7.8; 
  
 SECOND: subject to Article X, to Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for the principal and
interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for the principal and interest, respectively; and 
  
 THIRD: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
  
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Noteholders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Company shall mail to each Noteholder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 
  
 Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs 
  
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture
or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion
may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant; provided that this
Section 6.11 shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Trustee. 
  
 Section 6.12 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws 
  
 The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
  
 Section 6.13 Rights and Remedies Cumulative 
  
 No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  

 25 

 Section 6.14 Delay or Omission Not Waiver 
  
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the
Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
  
 ARTICLE 7. 
  
 TRUSTEE 
  
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee 
  
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs. 
  
 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
  
 (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and the TIA and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
  
 (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical
calculations or other facts stated therein) . 
  
 (c) The Trustee
may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own wilful misconduct, except that: 
  
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.1; 
  
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of
judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
  
 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to Section 6.5. 
  
 (d) Whether or not
therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.1. 
  
 (e) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

  
 (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee
to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds
or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
  
 (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1 and to the provisions of the
TIA. 
  

 26 

 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee 
  
 (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon, and shall be fully protected
from acting or refraining from acting, on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. 
  
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may request an
Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 
  
 (c) The Trustee may act through agents and shall not be responsible for the
misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 
  
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not
constitute wilful misconduct or negligence. 
  
 (e) The Trustee
may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action
taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 
  
 (f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of
the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with
such request or direction. 
  
 (g) The Trustee shall not be
charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes unless either (1) a Trust Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of Default making
reference to this Indenture and to the Notes shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or by any Holder of the Notes. 
  
 (h) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the
Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 
  
 (i) The Trustee may require any Paying Agent(s) to pay to it all sums held by such Agent upon the occurrences of an Event of Default. 
  
 (j) The Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the
correctness of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) or any records maintained by any Registrar (other than the Trustee) with respect
to the Notes. 
  
 Section 7.03 Individual
Rights of Trustee 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any
other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
  
 Any Paying Agent, Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must
comply with Sections 7.11 and 7.12. 
  

 27 

 Section 7.04 Money Held in Trust 
  
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. 
  
 Section 7.05 Trustee’s Disclaimer 
  
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to
the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes. It shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document
issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 
  
 Section 7.06 Notice of Defaults 
  
 If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee must mail to each Noteholder notice of the
Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding
notice is not opposed to the interests of Noteholders. 
  
 Section 7.07 Reports by Trustee to Holders 
  
 As
promptly as practicable after each April 15 beginning with April 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder a brief report dated as of such April 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also
shall comply with TIA Section 313(b). The Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Company a copy of any report it delivers to Holders pursuant to this Section 7.7. In the event that no events have occurred under the applicable sections of the TIA the
Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to provide such reports. 
  
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders shall be filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Notes are listed. The Company agree to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Notes
become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 
  
 Section 7.08 Compensation and Indemnity 
  
 The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited
by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable and documented fees and expenses, including out-of-pocket expenses, incurred or made by it in connection with the
performance of its duties hereunder, including costs of collection, in addition to such compensation for its services, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence, wilful misconduct or bad faith, unless the
Trustee shall have complied with the applicable standard of care required by the TIA. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and documented out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel,
accountants and experts. The Trustee shall provide the Company reasonable notice of any expenditure not in the ordinary course of business; provided that prior approval by the Company of any such expenditure shall not be a requirement for the
making of such expenditure nor for reimbursement by the Company thereof. The Company shall jointly and severally indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustees against any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense and tax
(including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses) (other than taxes applicable to the Trustee’s compensation hereunder) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust and the
performance of its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company 

  

 28 

 
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel, and the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability
or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own wilful misconduct, negligence or bad faith, unless the Trustee shall have complied with the applicable standard of care required by the TIA. 
  
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.8, the
Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Notes. 
  
 When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified
in Section 6.1(iv) or (v) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, provided, however, that this shall
not affect the Trustee’s rights as set forth in the preceding paragraph or Section 6.10. The terms of this Section 7.8 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the removal or resignation of the Trustee. 
  
 Section 7.09 Replacement of Trustee 
  
 The Trustee may resign at any time with 30 days notice to the Company. The
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, may remove the Trustee with 30 days notice to the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
been outstanding within the previous 12-month period, the Company may remove the Trustee at any time by appointing a successor Trustee that complies with Section 7.10. 
  
 If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such
Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. 
  
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written
acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section
7.8. 
  
 If a successor Trustee does not take office and deliver
the written notice contemplated by this Section 7.9 within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may, at the expense of the Company petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 Section 7.10 Successor Trustee by Merger 

 
 If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers
all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee, provided that such
corporation shall be eligible under this Article VII and TIA Section 310(a). 
  
 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not

  

 29 

 
delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated;
and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such
cases such certificates shall have the full force as if such successor Trustee shall had itself authenticated such Notes. 
  
 Section 7.11 Eligibility; Disqualification 
  
 The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 (or, if such person is a member of a bank holding company system, the bank holding company shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000) as set forth in its most recent published annual report of
condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of
interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. 
  

Section 7.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company 
  
 The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A
Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated. 
  
 ARTICLE 8. 
  
 DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE

become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within 91 days, and, in each case of this clause (ii), the Company irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay at maturity all outstanding Notes, including
interest thereon to maturity (other than Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7), and if in either case the Company pay all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 8.1(c), cease to be of further
effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company that all conditions precedent provided herein for
relating to satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with and at the cost and expense of the Company. 
  
 (b) Subject to Sections 8.1(c) and 8.2, the Company at any time may terminate (i) all of its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture
(“legal defeasance option”) or (ii) its obligations under Sections 4.2 through 4.6 and the operation of Section 6.1(iii) and Article X (“covenant defeasance option”). The Company may exercise its legal defeasance
option notwithstanding its prior exercise of its covenant defeasance option. 
  
 If the Company exercises its legal defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. 
  
 Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the Trustee shall acknowledge in
writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminate. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Company’ obligations in Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.7, 4.1, Sections 4.2 through 4.6, 7.8, 8.4, 8.5, Section 8.6 and Sections 10.1 through 10.6 and 10.15 shall survive until the Notes

 30 

 Section 8.02 Conditions to Defeasance 
  
 The Company may exercise the legal defeasance option or the covenant defeasance option only if: 
  
 (i) the Company irrevocably deposits or causes to be
deposited in trust with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be
sufficient to pay principal and interest when due on all outstanding Notes (except Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7) to maturity; 
  
 (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a nationally recognized firm of independent accountants expressing their
opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any deposited money without investment will provide cash at such times and in such amounts as will be sufficient
to pay principal and interest when due on all outstanding Notes (except Notes replaced pursuant to Section 2.7) to maturity; 
  
 (iii) 123 days pass after the deposit is made and during the 123-day period no Default specified in Section 6.1(iv) or (v) with respect to
the Company occurs which is continuing at the end of the period; 
  
 (iv) the deposit does not constitute a default under any other material agreement binding on the Company; 
  
 (v) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the trust resulting from the deposit does not constitute,
or is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940; 
  
 (vi) in the case of the legal defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i)
the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Noteholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; 
  
 (vii) in the case of the covenant defeasance option, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that the Noteholders will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would
have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred; and 
  
 (viii) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent to the defeasance and discharge of the Notes as contemplated by this Article VIII have been complied with. 
  
 Section 8.03 Application of Trust Money 
  
 The Trustee shall hold in trust money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. It shall apply the deposited money
and the money from U.S. Government Obligations either directly or through the Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes. 
  
 Money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited and held in trust pursuant to
this Section 8.3 shall not be subject to claims of the holders of Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Persons under Article X. 
  

 31 

 Section 8.04 Repayment to Company 
  
 The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or securities held by
them at any time. 
  
 Subject to any applicable abandoned
property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for one year after such principal and interest have become due and
payable, and, thereafter, Noteholders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. 
  
 Section 8.05 Indemnity for Government Obligations 
  
 The Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against deposited U.S. Government
Obligations or the principal and interest received on such U.S. Government Obligations other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the defeased Notes; provided that the Trustee shall be
entitled to charge any such tax, fee or other charge to such Holder’s account. 
  
 Section 8.06 Reinstatement 
  
 If the Trustee or
Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture, the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is
permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, (a) if the Company has made any payment of interest on or principal of any Notes following the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent and (b) unless otherwise required
by any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall return all such money and U.S. Government Obligations to the Company promptly after receiving a written request therefor at
any time, if such reinstatement of the Company’s obligations has occurred and continues to be in effect. 
  
 ARTICLE 9. 
  
 AMENDMENTS 
  
 Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders 

 
 The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Notes without
notice to or consent of any Noteholder: 
  
 (i)
to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; 
  
 (ii) to comply with Article V; 
  
 (iii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 
  
 (iv) to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes; 
  
 (v) to secure the Notes; 
  
 (vi) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Noteholders or to surrender any right or
power herein conferred upon the Company; 
  

 32 

 (vii) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the Noteholders;

  
 (viii) to make any change that does not
materially and adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder; or 
  
 (ix) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying this Indenture under the TIA. 
  
 After an amendment under this Section 9.1 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Noteholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure
to give such notice to all Noteholders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.1. 
  
 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders 
  
 The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Notes without notice to any Noteholder but with the written consent of the Holders of at least
a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for Notes). However, without the consent of each Noteholder of an outstanding Note affected, an
amendment may not: 
  
 (i) reduce the amount of
Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment; 
  
 (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note; 
  
 (iii) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note; 
  
 (iv) make any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Note; 
  
 (v) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of
principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 
  
 (vi) make any change in this second sentence of Section 9.2;
and 
  
 (vii) make any change in the ranking or
priority of the Notes that would adversely affect the Noteholders. 
  
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 After an amendment under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Company
shall mail to Noteholders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Noteholders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.2. 
  
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act 
  
 Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes shall comply with the TIA as
then in effect. 
  
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents and
Waivers 
  
 A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder
of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. After an amendment
or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Noteholder. 
  
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Noteholders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be 

  

 33 

 
taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Noteholders at
such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such
record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
  
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes 
  
 If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and
return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determine, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate
notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment. 
  
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments 
  
 The
Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In
signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 10.4, an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment complies with the provisions of this Article IX; provided, however, that Holders who do not consent, waive or agree to amend this Indenture in the time
frame set forth in such solicitation documents shall not be entitled to any consideration offered for timely consent, waiver or amendment, even if the consent, waiver or amendment is agreed to by sufficient Holders to approve such consent, waiver or
amendment to this Indenture. 
  
 Section 9.07 Payment for Consent

  
 Neither the Company nor any affiliate of the Company shall,
directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for, or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the
Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE 10. 
  
 SUBORDINATION OF NOTES 
  
 Section 10.01 Notes Subordinate to Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Note, by his
acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article, the indebtedness represented by the Notes and the payment of the principal of and interest on each and all of the Notes
are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness and, to the extent set forth in Section 10.15, of all Other Financial Obligations. 
  
 Section 10.02 Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. 
  
 In the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any
receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to the Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company, then and in any such 

  

 34 

 
event the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of all Senior
Indebtedness, or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money’s worth, before the Holders of the Notes are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal of or interest on the Notes, and to that end the holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment thereof, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or
deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Notes in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other
winding up or event. 
  
 In the event that, notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2, the Trustee or the Holder of any Note shall have received any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment
or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes, before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full or payment thereof provided for, and
if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or distribution, have been made known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be paid over or
delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining
unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 For purposes of this Article X only, the words “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include
shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment which are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness which
may at the time be outstanding to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Notes are so subordinated as provided in this Article X. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another Person or
the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article V shall not be deemed a dissolution,
winding up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the purposes of this Section 10.2 if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is
merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer such properties and assets substantially as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions set forth
in Article V. 
  
 Section 10.03 Prior Payment to Senior Indebtedness Upon
Acceleration of Notes.  
  
 In the event that any Notes are
declared due and payable before their Stated Maturity, then and in such event the holders of Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time such Notes become so due and payable shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to
become due on or in respect of all Senior Indebtedness or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money’s worth, before the Holders of the Notes are entitled to receive any payment (including any payment which may be payable by
reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes) by the Company on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Notes.

  
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Note prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.3, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee or,
as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company. 
  
 The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 10.2 would be applicable. 
  

 35 

 Section 10.04 No Payment When Senior Indebtedness in Default. 
  
 (a) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment
of principal of or interest on any Senior Indebtedness beyond any applicable grace period with respect thereto, or in the event that any event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness shall have occurred and be continuing permitting the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of the holders thereof) to declare such Senior Indebtedness due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, unless and until such event of default
shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist and such acceleration shall have been rescinded or annulled, or (b) in the event any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such default in payment or event of default,
then no payment (including any payment which may be payable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes) shall be made by the Company on account of principal of or interest on the
Notes or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Notes. 
  
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Note prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.4, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of
such payment, have been made known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company. 
  
 The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any payment with respect to
which Section 10.2 would be applicable. 
  
 Section 10.05 Payment Permitted in
Certain Situations. 
  
 Nothing contained in this Article X
or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except during the pendency of any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other
marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company referred to in Section 10.2 or under the conditions described in Section 10.3 or 10.4, from making payments at any time of principal of or interest on the Notes or (b) the application by the
Trustee of any money deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes of any series or the retention of such payment by the Holder, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did
not have actual knowledge that such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article X. 
  
 Section 10.06 Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions
made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Article X to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior
Indebtedness until the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of
the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article X, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Notes or the Trustee, shall, as among the
Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Notes, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness. 
  
 Section 10.07 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. 
  
 The provisions of this Article X are and are intended solely for the purpose
of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Notes on the one hand and the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and, in the case of Section 10.15, Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations) on the other hand. Nothing contained
in this Article X or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall (a) impair, as among the 

  

 36 

 
Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and other than Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations and the Holders of
the Notes, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional (and which, subject to the rights under this Article X of the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations, is intended to
rank equally with all other general obligations of the Company), to pay to the Holders of the Notes the principal of and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the
relative rights against the Company of the Holders of the Notes and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations; or (c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of
any Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article X of the holders of Senior Indebtedness and under Section 10.15 of Entitled Persons in
respect of Other Financial Obligations, to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder. 
  
 Section 10.08 Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. 
  
 Each Holder of a Note by his acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the subordination provided in this Article X and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
  
 Section 10.09 No Waiver of Subordination Provisions. 
  
 No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced
or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any non-compliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of
any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. 
  
 Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations) may, at any time and from time to time,
without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Notes and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article X or the obligations hereunder of
the Holders of the Notes to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Entitled Persons, in respect of Other Financial Obligations, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of,
or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness or Other Financial Obligations, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness or Other Financial Obligations or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior
Indebtedness is or Other Financial Obligations are outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness or Other Financial Obligations; (iii) release any Person
liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Indebtedness or Other Financial Obligations; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person. 
  
 Section 10.10 Notice to Trustee. 
  
 The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Trust Officer of the
Trustee of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article X or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be
charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes, unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the
Company or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor or from any Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations; and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section
7.01, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 10.10 

  

 37 

 
at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the
payment of the principal or interest on any security) then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received
and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing
himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee therefor) or an Entitled Person in respect of Other Financial Obligations to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee therefor) or an
Entitled Person in respect of Other Financial Obligations. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness or an Entitled Person in
respect of Other Financial Obligations to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article X, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior
Indebtedness or other Financial Obligations held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article X, and if such
evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. 
  
 Section 10.11 Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. 
  
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in
this Article X, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, and the Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy,
receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or
other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to a Trust Officer of the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company and the Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or
to this Article X. 
  
 Section 10.12 Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of
Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Persons.  
  
 The Trustee
shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations and shall not be liable to any such holders or creditors if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over
or distribute to Holders of Notes or to the Company or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations shall be entitled by virtue of this
Article X or otherwise. 
  
 Section 10.13
Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Person; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness which may at
any time be held by it and with respect to any Other Financial Obligations owed to the Trustee as an Entitled Person, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness or Entitled Person in respect of Other Financial Obligations, as the
case may be, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder or Entitled Person. 
  
 Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.8.

 Section 10.14 Article Applicable to Paying Agents. 
  
 In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been
appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article X shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning
as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article X in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 10.13 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company
if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. 
  
 Section 10.15 Notes to Rank Pari Passu with All Other Notes; Payment of Proceeds in Certain Cases. 
  
 (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 10.15, the Notes shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all other Notes. 
  
 (b) Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in clauses (a), (b)
and (c) of the first paragraph of Section 10.2, the provisions of Section 10.2 shall be given effect to determine the amount of cash, property or securities which may be payable or deliverable as between the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the
one hand, and the Holders of Notes, on the other hand. 
  
 (c) If,
after giving effect to the provisions of Section 10.2 and Section 10.6, any amount of cash, property or securities shall be available for payment or distribution in respect of the Notes (“Excess Proceeds”), and any Entitled Persons in
respect of Other Financial Obligations shall not have received payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of such Other Financial Obligations (and provision shall not have been made for such payment in money or money’s
worth), then such Excess Proceeds shall first be applied (ratably with any amount of cash, property or securities available for payment or distribution in respect of any other indebtedness of the Company that by its express terms provides for the
payment over of amounts corresponding to Excess Proceeds to Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations) to pay or provide for the payment of the Other Financial Obligations remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all Other
Financial Obligations in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations. Any Excess Proceeds remaining after the payment (or provision for payment) in full of
all Other Financial Obligations shall be available for payment or distribution in respect of the Notes. 
  
 (d) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of subsection (c) of this Section 10.15, after the occurrence of any of the events
specified in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the first paragraph of Section 10.2, the Trustee or Holder of any Note shall have received any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, before Senior Indebtedness and all Other Financial Obligations are paid in full or payment thereof duly provided for, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or distribution, have been made known to a Trust
Officer of the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event, subject to any obligation that the Trustee or such Holder may have pursuant to Section 10.2, such payment or distribution shall be paid over or delivered forthwith
to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company for payment in accordance with subsection (c). 
  
 (e) Subject to the payment in full of all Other Financial Obligations, the
Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company that by its express terms provides for the payment over of amounts corresponding to Excess Proceeds to Entitled Persons in respect of
Other Financial Obligations and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the extent of the payments or distributions made to Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations pursuant to subsection (c) or (d) of this Section 10.15 to
the rights of the Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Other Financial Obligations until the principal of and interest on the Notes shall
be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations of any cash, property or securities to 

  

 39 

 
which Holders of the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 10.15, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 10.15 to Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations by Holders of Notes or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations and the Holders
of Notes be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the Other Financial Obligations. 
  
 (f) The provisions of subsections (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 10.15 are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of
the Holders of the Notes, on the one hand, and the Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations, on the other hand, after giving effect to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, as provided in this Article. Nothing contained
in subsections (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 10.15 is intended to or shall affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders of the Notes and creditors of the Company other than Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial
Obligations.

 (Reverse of Note) 
  

5.35% Subordinated Notes due May 1, 2014 
  

	1.	Interest 

  
 Hibernia Corporation, a Louisiana corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above; provided, however, that if a Registration
Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, additional cash interest will accrue on this Note at a rate of 0.50% per annum from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date
on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, calculated on the principal of this Note as of the date on which such interest is payable. Such interest is payable in addition to any other interest payable from time to time with respect to
this Note. The Trustee will not be deemed to have notice of a Registration Default until it shall have received actual notice of such Registration Default from the Company. 
  
 The Company shall pay accrued interest semi-annually on each May 1 and November 1, commencing November 1, 2004 or if any
such day is not a Business Day (as defined in the Indenture referred to below), on the next Business Day. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at 1% per annum in excess of the rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest
will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  

	2.	Method of Payment 

  
 By at least 10:00 a.m. New York City Time on the date on which any principal of or interest on any Note is due and payable, the Company shall irrevocably
deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent money (in funds which are immediately available) sufficient to pay such principal and/or interest. The Company will pay interest (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of
Notes at the close of business on April 15 or October 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are cancelled, repurchased or redeemed after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to
a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to the U.S. dollar accounts with a bank in the United States specified by the Holder hereof or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to the Holder’s registered address. 
  

	3.	Paying Agent and Registrar 

  
 Initially, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar
or co-registrar without notice to any Noteholder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent. 
  

	4.	Indenture 

  
 The Company is issuing the Notes under an Indenture dated as of April 26, 2004 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), between the
Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., a banking corporation (“the Trustee”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939,
as amended (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “TIA”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such
terms, and Noteholders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of those terms. 
  

 2 

 The Notes are unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company limited to $100,000,000 aggregate
principal amount (subject to Section 2.1(a) of the Indenture, which, inter alia, allows for the issuance of Additional Notes in some circumstances). 
  
 The Notes include the Initial Notes, any Private Exchange Note and Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Initial Notes pursuant to the Indenture and
the Registration Rights Agreement, and any Additional Notes actually issued. The Initial Notes, the Private Exchange Notes, the Exchange Notes and any Additional Notes actually issued are treated as a single class of securities under the Indenture.

  

	5.	Subordination 

  
 The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Note, by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the
manner set forth in Article X of the Indenture, the indebtedness represented by the Notes and the payment of principal of and interest on each and all of the Notes are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior
payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness and Other Financial Obligations. 
  

	6.	Registration Rights 

  
 The Company is party to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 26, 2004 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company,
Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. and Hibernia Southcoast Capital, Inc. pursuant to which they are obligated to pay additional interest upon the occurrence of certain Registration Defaults (as defined therein).

  

	7.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 

  
 The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register,
transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Notes for a period beginning on a record date and ending on the next succeeding interest payment date. 
  

	8.	Persons Deemed Owners 

  
 The registered holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
  

	9.	Unclaimed Money 

  
 If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for one year after the date of payment of principal and interest, the Trustee or
Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.

  

	10.	Defeasance 

  
 Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S.
Government Obligations for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes to maturity. 
  

	11.	Amendment, Waiver 

  
 Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in principal amount at maturity of the outstanding 

  

 3 

 
Notes and (ii) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount at
maturity of the outstanding Notes. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Noteholder, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Notes to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or
inconsistency; to comply with Article V of the Indenture; to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; to add guarantees with respect to the Notes or to secure the Notes; to add additional covenants of or
surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company; to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the Noteholders; to make any change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder; or to comply with any
request of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the TIA. 
  

	12.	Defaults and Remedies 

  
 Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of any interest upon any Note when it becomes due and payable, and continuance
of such default for a period of 30 days, (ii) default in the payment of the principal of any Notes at its Stated Maturity, (iii) default in the performance, or breach, of any other covenant or warranty of the Company in the Indenture, and
continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after notice, (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. Certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization are Events of Default that will
result in the Notes being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default. 
  
 Noteholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Notes
unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Noteholders
notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is not opposed to their interest. 
  

	13.	Trustee Dealings with the Company 

  
 Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner
or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
  

	14.	No Recourse Against Others 

  
 No director, officer, employee, member, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company
under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes. 
  

	15.	Authentication 

  
 This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the certificate
of authentication on the other side of this Note. 
  

	16.	Abbreviations 

  
 Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Noteholder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entirety),
JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian) and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 
  

 4 

	17.	CUSIP Numbers 

  
 Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Note Identification Procedures the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on
the Notes and have directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices to Noteholders as a convenience to Noteholders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any such notice
and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 
  

	18.	GOVERNING LAW 

  
 THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
