WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 12.2 of the Plan, the Company has reserved the right to amend the Plan from time to time; and 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined to amend the Plan, effective as of July 1, 2018 and notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan, to allow eligible participants whose accrued benefits have a present value that does not exceed $10,000 to elect distribution of their benefits under the Plan in the form of a lump sum rather than a monthly annuity;

Effective for commencement of Pensions on or after July 1, 2018, if the present value of a Pension payable under the Plan, as determined under paragraph (a), is more than $5,000 but not more than $10,000 as of the determination date, the
Participant or Beneficiary may elect to receive payment of such Pension in a lump sum. In the case of a Pension payable to a Participant, such election shall be considered a selection of an optional form of benefit, and the notice, election and
spousal consent provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply. Subject to such provisions of Section 7.4, payment of a lump sum elected pursuant to this Section 7.5(b) may be made as soon as practicable following the date on which a
Participant has incurred a termination of employment or, in the case of a payment to a Beneficiary, the Participant’s death.”

 2.2.24. any other terms of the Series (which may supplement, modify or delete any provision of
this Indenture insofar as it applies to such Series or any Guarantees of any Securities of such Series), including any terms that may be required under applicable law or regulations or advisable in connection with the marketing of Securities of that
Series. 
 All Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time,
consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate referred to above. 

Section 2.3. Execution and Authentication. 

An Officer will sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the
Security will nevertheless be valid. 
 A Security will not be valid until authenticated by the manual or facsimile signature
of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

The Trustee will at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount
provided in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order. Each Security will be dated the date of its authentication. 

The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum
principal amount for such Series set forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.2, except as provided in Section 2.8. 

Prior to the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee will have the right to receive and (subject to Section 6.2)
be fully protected in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate establishing the form of the Securities of that Series or of Securities within that Series and the terms of the Securities
of that Series or of Securities within that Series, (b) an Officer’s Certificate complying with Section9.4, and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 9.4. 

The Trustee will have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of such Series: (a) if the Trustee,
being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not be taken lawfully; or (b) if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or vice-presidents or a

  
 - 9 - 

 
committee of Responsible Officers will determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Series of Securities. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent
may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or
an Affiliate of the Company. 
 Section 2.4. Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company will maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities then outstanding, if any, at the place or places specified
with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.2, an office or agency where (a) Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”), (b) Securities of such Series may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”), (c) Securities of such Series, if such Securities are convertible or exchangeable into other securities, may be presented or surrendered for conversion or
exchange (“Conversion/Exchange Agent”), and (d) where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture may be delivered (“Notice Agent”).
The Registrar will keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and to their transfer and exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address, and any change in the name or address, of each
Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice Agent. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion/Exchange Agent or Notice Agent or fails to furnish the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more co-registrars, additional
paying agents or additional notice agents and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations to maintain a Registrar,
Paying Agent, Conversion/Exchange Agent (if applicable) and Notice Agent in each place so specified pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of any Series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and of any change in the name or address of any such co-registrar, additional paying agent or additional notice agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Notice Agent” includes any additional notice agent. The Company or any of its
Affiliates may serve as Registrar or Paying Agent. 
 The Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying
Agent and Notice Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Notice Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued. 

  
 - 10 - 

 Section 2.5. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

The Company will require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust,
for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company
in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon
payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) will have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it will segregate and hold in
a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee will serve as Paying Agent for the
Securities. 
 Section 2.6. Holder Lists. 

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

Section 2.7. Transfer and Exchange. 

2.7.1. Generally. 

Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a
request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar will register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit
registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee will authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein or
pursuant hereto), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon
exchanges not involving any transfer pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.16 or 8.6). 
 2.7.2. Transfers of Securities Subject to
Conversion, Exchange or Redemption. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the Company, the
Trustee and the Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange (i) any Convertible/Exchangeable Security that has been surrendered for conversion or exchange, except to the extent that any portion of such Security is not
subject to conversion or exchange, as 

  
 - 11 - 

 
applicable; or (ii) any Redeemable Security that has been selected for redemption, except to the extent that any portion of such Security is not subject to Redemption. 

Section 2.8. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver
in exchange therefor a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

If there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity bond as may be required by each of them to hold itself and any of its agents harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, the Company will execute and upon its request the Trustee will authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and
principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Security of any Series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security will
constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security will be at any time enforceable by anyone, and will be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of that Series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section
are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 

Section 2.9. Outstanding Securities. 

The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it,
those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding. 

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof
satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 

  
 - 12 - 

 If the Paying Agent holds, on the Maturity of any Security, money sufficient to
pay such Security payable on that date, then from and after that date, such Security ceases to be outstanding and interest on such Security ceases to accrue, except to the extent as may otherwise be provided pursuant to the terms of the Series of
such Security. 
 In the case of a Convertible/Exchangeable Security that is to be converted or exchanged, such Security
will cease to be outstanding, and interest on such Security will cease to accrue, from and after the first date on which the requirements set forth in pursuant to the terms of the Series of such Security to convert or exchange such Security are
satisfied, except to the extent as may otherwise be provided pursuant to the terms of the Series of such Security. 
 The
Company may purchase or otherwise acquire the Securities, whether by open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security,
subject to Section 2.10. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding
Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that will be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes will be the amount of the principal thereof
that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.2. 

Section 2.10. Treasury Securities. 

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Company, any Guarantor of such Securities of such Series or any Affiliate of the Company or any such Guarantor will be disregarded, except that, for the
purposes of determining whether the Trustee will be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities of a Series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned will
be so disregarded. 
 Section 2.11. Temporary Securities. 

Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee will authenticate temporary
Securities upon a Company Order. Temporary Securities will be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will
prepare and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company Order will authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary Securities will have the same rights under
this Indenture as the definitive Securities. 
 Section 2.12. Cancellation. 

The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent will forward
to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to 

  
 - 13 - 

 
them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee will cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy such
canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act and the Trustee) and deliver a certificate of such cancellation to the Company upon written request of the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to
replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.13. Defaulted
Interest. 
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it will pay the defaulted
interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who are Holders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The Company will fix the special record date and payment date. At least
10 days before the special record date, the Company will send to the Trustee and to each Holder of the Series a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted
interest in any other lawful manner. 
 Section 2.14. Global Securities. 

2.14.1. Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate will
establish whether the Securities of a Series will be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities. 

2.14.2. Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.7 of this
Indenture and in addition thereto, any Global Security will be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if
(i) such Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case,
the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event or (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that
such Global Security will be so exchangeable. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence will be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary will direct in writing in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms. 
 Except as provided in this
Section 2.14.2, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such
Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary. 

2.14.3. Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder will bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

  
 - 14 - 

 “This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture
hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited
circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or
any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.” 
 2.14.4. Acts of
Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under
the Indenture. 
 2.14.5. Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 2.2, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security will be made to the Holder thereof.

a person as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as will be specified in a written statement of the Depositary or by the applicable procedures of such Depositary with respect
to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture. 

Section 2.15. CUSIP Numbers. 

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

Section 2.16. Exchange and Cancellation of Securities to Be Converted, Exchanged, Redeemed or Repurchased.

 2.16.1. Partial Conversions, Exchanges, Redemptions and Repurchases of Physical Security. If any Physical Security
that is a Convertible/Exchangeable Security, Redeemable Security or Puttable Security is to be converted or exchanged, redeemed or repurchased, respectively, in part, then the Company will, at the request of the Holder thereof and the surrender of
such Security therefor, cause such Physical Security to be exchanged for (i) one or more Physical Securities that are in Authorized Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Physical Security
that is not to be so converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased, as applicable, and deliver such Physical Security(ies) to such Holder; and (ii) a Physical Security having a principal amount equal to the

  
 - 15 - 

 
principal amount to be so converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased, as applicable, which Physical Security will be converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased, as applicable, pursuant to
the terms of the Series of such Securities; provided, however, that the Physical Securities referred to in this clause (ii) need not be issued at any time after which such principal amount subject to such conversion, exchange,
redemption or repurchase, as applicable, is deemed to cease to be outstanding pursuant to Section 2.9. 
 2.16.2.
Cancellation of Converted, Exchanged, Redeemed and Repurchased Securities. 
 (a) Physical
Securities. If a Holder’s Physical Security (or any portion thereof that has not theretofore been exchanged pursuant to Section 2.16.1) that is a Convertible/Exchangeable Security, Redeemable Security or Puttable Security is to be
converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased pursuant to the terms of the Series of such Security, then (1) such Physical Security will be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.12; and (2) in the case of a partial conversion, exchange,
redemption or repurchase, as applicable, the Company will issue, execute and deliver to such Holder, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.3, one or more Physical Securities that (x) are in Authorized
Denominations and have an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Physical Security that is not to be so converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased; and (y) are registered in the name of such Holder. 

(b) Global Securities. If a Global Security (or any portion thereof) that is a Convertible/Exchangeable
Security, Redeemable Security or Puttable Security is to be converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased pursuant to the terms of the Series of such Security, then the Trustee will reflect a decrease of the principal amount of such Global Security
in an amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security to be so converted, exchanged, redeemed or repurchased, as applicable, by notation on the certificate representing such Global Security (and, if the principal amount of such Global
Security is zero following such notation, cancel such Global Security pursuant to Section 2.12). 
 ARTICLE III. 

COVENANTS

 Section 3.2. Reports. 

The Company will comply with its obligations under TIA §314(a). Delivery of annual reports, information, documents and other reports
(including, without limitation, reports contemplated under this Section 3.2) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein
or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 

Section 3.3. Compliance Certificate. 

To the extent any Securities of a Series are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the
end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining
whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his/her knowledge the Company has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing
all such Defaults or Events of Default of which the Officer may have knowledge). 
 The Company will, so long as Securities
of any Series are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, promptly upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default with respect to such Series, an Officer’s Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company
is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 Section 3.4. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 

The Company and each Guarantor covenants (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they will not at any time insist
upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture or the
Securities; and the Company and each Guarantor (to the extent they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenant that they will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution
of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted. 

ARTICLE IV. 
 SUCCESSORS 

Section 4.1. When Company May Merge, Etc. 

The Company will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its
consolidated properties and assets to, any person (a “successor person”) unless the Company is the surviving person or the successor person (if other than the 

  
 - 17 - 

 
Company) expressly assumes the Company’s obligations under this Indenture. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, at or prior to the consummation of any such consolidation, merger, sale,
transfer or lease, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, and any such supplemental indenture, comply with this Indenture.

may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor person has been named as the Company herein, and, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Company will be released from all
obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. 
 ARTICLE V. 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 

Section 5.1. Events of Default. 

The Events of Default applicable to any Series of Securities will be established pursuant to Section 2.2. Except as
otherwise established with respect to any Series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.2, a Bankruptcy Event with respect to the Company will constitute an “Automatic Acceleration Event of Default.” 

Section 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 

If an Event of Default (other than an Automatic Acceleration Event of Default) with respect to Securities of any Series at the
time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee, or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series, may declare the principal amount (or, if any Securities of such Series are Discount
Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) of, and any premium and accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Securities of such Series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or such specified amount) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will become immediately due and payable. If an Automatic
Acceleration Event of Default occurs with respect to Securities of any Series at the time outstanding, the principal amount (or such specified amount) of, and any premium and accrued and unpaid interest on, all outstanding Securities of such Series
will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 

  
 - 18 - 

 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to any Series
has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series, by
written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such Series, other than the non-payment of the
principal, premium and interest, if any, of Securities of such Series that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

No such rescission will affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Trustee will have the right, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default resulting from a default in the
payment of interest, if any, on, or in the payment of principal or premium of, any Security, when the same is due, or, in the case of a Convertible/Exchangeable Security, a default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion
or exchange of any Security, when then same is due, to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the total unpaid or undelivered interest, principal, premium or other consideration, as applicable,
and, to the extent that payment of such interest is legally enforceable, interest on any overdue interest, principal or premium at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Security, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as is sufficient
to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel. 

If an Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its
discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such Series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee deems most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the
specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

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

  
 - 19 - 

 
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(b) collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute the same, 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents 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 and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.6. 

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

Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture, the Securities or any Guarantee may be prosecuted and enforced by the
Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee will be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery
of judgment will, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered. 
 Section 5.6. Application of Money Collected. 

Any money or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V will be applied in the following order, at the date
or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender
thereof if fully paid: 
 First: to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee in all of its capacities under
Section 6.6; 
 Second: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the
Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest, respectively; and

 Third: to the Company or any applicable Guarantor, as the case may be. 

  
 - 20 - 

 Section 5.7. Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Security of any Series will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to
this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

(a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with
respect to the Securities of that Series; 
 (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of such Series has made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee
against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request; 

(d) the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to
institute any such proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given
to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series. 

it being understood, intended and expressly covenanted by the Holder of each Security with every other Holder and the Trustee that no one or
more of such Holders will have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or
preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders of the applicable Series. The Trustee will not have any
affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to any Holders. 

Section 5.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Interest and Conversion Consideration. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security will have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, and any premium and interest on, such Security, and, in the case of any Convertible/Exchangeable Security, to receive the consideration due upon conversion or exchange thereof, in each case when
the same is due, and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights will not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 5.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such
proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then, subject to any 

  
 - 21 - 

 
determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies
of the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in
Section 2.8, 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 will, 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, will not, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the
concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission
Not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

Section 5.12. Control by Holders. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series will have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such Series; provided, however, that: 

(a) no such direction may be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; 

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such
direction; 
 (c) subject to the provisions of this Article V, the Trustee will have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith will, by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability, and 

(d) prior to taking any action as directed under this Section 5.12, the Trustee will be entitled to
indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

  
 - 22 - 

 Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may, on behalf of the
Holders of all the Securities of such Series, waive any past Default hereunder with respect to such Series and its consequences, except a Default in the payment of the principal of, or any premium or interest on, or, with respect to Securities of
such Series of Convertible/Exchangeable Securities, a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion or exchange of, any Security of such Series. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Securities of any Series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default will cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom
will be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. 

Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof will be deemed to have agreed,
that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the
merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section will not apply to any suit instituted by the Company or any Guarantor, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by
any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on
any Security on or after the Maturity of such Security, including the Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the redemption date). 

ARTICLE VI. 
 TRUSTEE 

Section 6.1. Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee. 

The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to any Series and after the curing or waiver of all
Events of Default that may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default with respect to a Series has occurred that has not been cured or waived,
the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s
own affairs; provided, however, that if an Event of Default with respect to a Series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or
direction of any of the Holders of Securities of such Series unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee 

  
 - 23 - 

 
indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 

No provision of this Indenture will be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action,
its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (a) prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to a Series and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default with respect to such Series that may have occurred: 

(i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this
Indenture, and the Trustee will not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions
that by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee will be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or
investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein); 
 (b) the Trustee
will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

(c) the Trustee will not be responsible or liable for any action it takes, suffers or omits to take in good
faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

(d) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith
in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any Series at the time outstanding determined as provided in Section 2.9 relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; 

(e) whether or not therein provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the
liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee will be subject to the provisions of this Section; 

(f) the Trustee will 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 

  
 - 24 - 

 
notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Registrar with respect to any Securities; 

(g) if any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture,
requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event; 

(h) in the absence of written investment direction from the Company, all cash received by the Trustee will be
placed in a non-interest bearing trust account, and in no event will the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses, fees, taxes or other costs incurred with respect thereto or
for losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investments prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investment to provide
timely written investment direction, and the Trustee will have no obligation to invest or reinvest any amounts held hereunder in the absence of such written investment direction from the Company; and 

(i) in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Depositary Custodian or Agent or transfer agent hereunder,
the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI, including, without limitation, the right to be indemnified, will also be afforded to such Depositary Custodian, Agent or transfer agent. 

None of the provisions contained in this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. 

The Trustee will furnish the Company periodic cash transaction statements that include details for all investment transactions
effected by the Trustee or brokers selected by the Company. Upon the Company’s election, such statements will be delivered via the Trustee’s online service, and, upon electing such service, paper statements will be provided only upon
request. The Company acknowledges that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the Company the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions effected by the
Trustee as they occur, the Company specifically waives receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Company further understands that trade confirmations for securities transactions effected by the Trustee will be available upon
request and at no additional cost, and other trade confirmations may be obtained from the applicable broker. 

Section 6.2. Reliance on Documents, Opinions, Etc. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1: 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and will be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, note, coupon or other paper or document 

  
 - 25 - 

 
believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

(b) before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion
of Counsel or both. The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel; 

(c) any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein will be sufficiently evidenced by
an Officer’s Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
Company; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and require an Opinion of Counsel and
any advice of such counsel or Opinion of Counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection or reliance on in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
Counsel; 
 (e) the Trustee will 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 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 will determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it will be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of
the Company and will incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 
 (f) the
Trustee will not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder; 

(g) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without
limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and will be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder; 

(h) the Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals
and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture (i.e., an incumbency certificate); 

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

  
 - 26 - 

 (j) the permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein will
not be construed as duties; 
 (k) the Trustee will not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of
the performance of its powers and duties under this Indenture; and 
 (l) the Trustee will 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 have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 In
no event will the Trustee be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of
such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee will not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the any Series of Securities, unless either (x) a Responsible Officer has actual
knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (y) written notice of such Default or Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references such Series and
this Indenture. 
 Section 6.3. No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. 

The recitals contained herein and in any Securities (except in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication) will be taken
as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of any Securities. The Trustee will not be
accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Securities or the proceeds of any Securities authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture. 

Section 6.4. Trustee and Agents May Own Securities. 

The Trustee, and any Agent (if other than the Company), in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of any Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such Agent. 

Section 6.5. Monies and Shares of Common Stock to Be Held in Trust. 

All monies and other property, if any, received by the Trustee will, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust
for the purposes for which they were received. Money and any other property, if any, held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds or property except to the extent required by law. The Trustee will be under no
liability for interest on any money or other property, if any, received by it hereunder except as may be agreed from time to time in writing by the Company and the Trustee. 

  
 - 27 - 

 Section 6.6. Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. 

The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee will receive, such compensation for
all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which will not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the
Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as is caused by its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The Company and each Guarantor, if any, jointly and severally, also covenant to indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection
herewith and their agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other person), damage, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or in any
other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the premises or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Section 6.6. The obligations of the Company and the
Guarantors, if any, under this Section 6.6 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances will be secured by a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate
on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 5.6, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities. The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any
amounts due under this Section 6.6 will not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company. The obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under this Section 6.6 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will need pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this
Section 6.6 will extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee. 
 Without prejudice to any
other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to the Company, the expenses (including the
reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws. 

Section 6.7. Eligibility of Trustee. 

There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder which will be a person that is eligible pursuant to the TIA to act as such and
has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this

  
 - 28 - 

 
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such person will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the
Trustee ceases to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect set forth in this Article VI. 

Section 6.8. Replacement of Trustee. 

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

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.7; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the
Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
 (c) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its
property; or 
 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly
appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any Series may appoint a successor Trustee with respect to such Series to
replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company with respect to such Series. 
 If a successor Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any one or more Series does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of the
applicable Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, at the expense of the Company. 

A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company.
Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee will transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee subject to the lien provided for in Section 6.6, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective,
and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee with respect to each Series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee will send a notice of its succession to each
Holder of each such Series. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 6.6 will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee with respect to expenses and
liabilities incurred by it for 

  
 - 29 - 

 
actions taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with its rights, powers and duties under this Indenture prior to such replacement. 

The Trustee will have no responsibility or liability for the action or inaction of a successor trustee. 

Section 6.9. Succession by Merger, Etc. 

Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee is a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including
the administration of this Indenture), will be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided, however, that in the case of any
corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, such corporation or other entity must be eligible under 6.7. 

If, at the time such successor to the Trustee succeeds to the trusts created by this Indenture, any Securities have been
authenticated but not delivered, then such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated;
and if at such time any Securities have not been authenticated, such successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or
in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases, such certificates will have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee has; provided, however,
that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor trustee will apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 

Section 6.10. Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. 

Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be
taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Securities under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this
Indenture and the date on or after which such action will be taken or such omission will be effective. The Trustee will not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on
or after the date specified in such application (which date will not be less than three Business Days after the date any Officer that the Company has indicated to the Trustee should receive such application actually receives such application, unless
any such Officer has consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of any omission), the Trustee has received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response
to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted. 

  
 - 30 - 

 Section 6.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

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

Section 6.12. Reports by Trustee to Holders. 

Within 60 days after each December 31 of each year, if any Securities are outstanding as of such December 31, the
Trustee will send to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar, a brief report dated as of such December 31, in accordance with, and to the extent required under, TIA § 313. 

A copy of each report, at the time it is sent to Holders of any Series, will be filed with the SEC and each national
securities exchange on which the Securities of that Series are listed. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing when Securities of any Series are listed on any national securities exchange. 

Section 6.13. Notice of Defaults. 

The Trustee will, within 90 days a Responsible Officer receives written notice of the occurrence and continuance of a Default
with respect to any Series, send to all Holders of such Series notice of all such Defaults, unless such Defaults have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in
the payment of the principal of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any Securities or, in the case of any Convertible/Exchangeable Securities, a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion or exchange, the Trustee
will be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the relevant Series. 

ARTICLE VII. 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE 
 Section 7.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

(a) Discharge of Indenture as Whole. Subject to Section 7.1(c), this Indenture will, upon Company
Order or Guarantor Order, cease to be of further effect (except as provided in this Section 7.1), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, will execute instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when: 

(i) either: 

(1) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Securities that have been destroyed,
lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

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

  
 - 31 - 

 (A) have become due and payable; or 

(B) are deemed paid and discharged pursuant to Section 7.1(b), if applicable; 

and, the case of clause (A) above, the Company or any Guarantor(s) have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee as trust funds in trust an amount sufficient for the purpose of paying and discharging the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; 

(ii) the Company or any Guarantor(s) have paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the
Company; and 
 (iii) the Company or any Guarantor(s) have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

(b) Discharge of Indenture as to a Series of Securities. Subject to Section 7.1(c), solely as to
any particular Series of Securities, the terms thereof established pursuant to Section 2.2 may provide for the circumstances under which the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor with respect to any Securities of such Series, and under
this Indenture with respect to such Series, will have been deemed to be discharged (a “Series Discharge”); provided, however, that no such discharge will affect the rights of the Trustee under this Indenture.

 (c) Notwithstanding any satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to
the Trustee under Section 6.6, and, until no Securities remain outstanding, the provisions of Sections 2.4, 2.7, 2.8, 6.6, and 7.2 will survive. 

Section 7.2. Application of Trust Funds. 

Subject to Section 7.4, all money or other property deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.1 or pursuant to
a Series Discharge or a Legal or Covenant Defeasance, will be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture. 

Section 7.3. Legal and Covenant Defeasance of Securities of any Series. 

Any provisions relating to the legal or covenant defeasance of any Securities of any Series (a “Legal or Covenant
Defeasance”) will be established pursuant to Section 2.2 with respect to such series. 

Section 7.4. Repayment. 

Subject to applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay to the Company (or, if applicable, the
relevant Guarantor(s)) upon request any money 

  
 - 32 - 

 
held by them for the payment of principal and interest that remains unclaimed for two years. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company or, if applicable, the relevant
Guarantor(s) for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person. 

Section 7.5. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money deposited in accordance with Section 7.1 or pursuant to a
Series Discharge or a Legal or Covenant Defeasance, in each case with respect to Securities of any Series, by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, the obligations of the Company under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such Series and under the Securities of such Series will be revived and reinstated as though no such deposit had occurred
until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 7.1 or such Series Discharge or Legal or Covenant Defeasance; provided, however, that if the Company or any
Guarantor(s) have made any payment of principal of or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company and the applicable Guarantor(s), if any, will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities
to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE VIII. 

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 

Section 8.1. Without Consent of Holders. 

Without the consent of any person, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture at any time when no
Securities are then outstanding. In addition, the Company, the applicable Guarantor(s), if any, and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture without the consent of any Holder to provide for the issuance of, and establish the form, terms
and conditions of Securities of, any Series and any Guarantees thereof, as permitted hereby. As to any Series of Securities that may then be outstanding, the Company, the applicable Guarantor(s), if any, and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture or the Securities of such Series, without the consent of any Holder, in the circumstances established with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.2. 

Section 8.2. With Consent of Holders. 

Except as otherwise required by the TIA or as established with respect to the applicable Series of Securities established
pursuant to Section 2.2, the Company, the applicable Guarantor(s), if any, and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities
of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of such Series. Except as provided in Section 5.13, the Holders of at least a majority in

  
 - 33 - 

 
principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, by notice to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such
Series), may waive compliance by the Company or any Guarantor of Securities of such Series with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities or the applicable Guarantee with respect to such Series. 

It will not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section 8.2 to approve the particular
form of any proposed supplemental indenture or waiver, but it will be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After a supplemental indenture or waiver under this Section 8.2 becomes effective, the Company will send to the
Holders of Securities affected thereby, a notice briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. No failure by the Company to send such notice, or any defect therein, will in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture or waiver. 
 Section 8.3. Limitations. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VIII, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or
waiver cannot (a) impair or affect the rights of any Holder that, pursuant to TIA §316(b), cannot be impaired or affected without such Holder’s consent; or (b) make any other change with respect to any Security of and Series
that, pursuant to the terms of such Series established pursuant to Section 2.2, cannot be effected without such Holder’s consent. 

Section 8.4. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Each amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of any Series will be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that
complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 8.5. Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment is set forth in a supplemental indenture or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a
Security is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date of the supplemental indenture or the date the waiver becomes effective.

 Any amendment or waiver once effective will bind each Holder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless
it is of the type set forth pursuant to or described in Section 8.3, in which case the amendment or waiver will bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that
evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security. 
 Section 8.6. Notation on or Exchange of
Securities. 
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series
thereafter authenticated. The Company, in exchange for Securities of 

  
 - 34 - 

 
that Series, may issue and the Trustee will authenticate upon request new Securities of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver. 

Section 8.7. Trustee Protected. 

In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article VIII or the
modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee will receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) will be fully protected in conclusively relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both complying
with Section 9.4 and stating that such supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions. The Trustee will sign all
supplemental indentures upon delivery of such an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel or both, except that the Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that, solely based on the Trustee’s opinion, adversely affects its
rights. 
 ARTICLE IX.

 Section 9.7. Legal Holidays. 

Unless otherwise provided by Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture hereto for a particular

interest will accrue for the intervening period.

A director, officer, employee or stockholder (past or present), as such, of the Company or any Guarantor will not have any
liability for any obligations of the Company or such Guarantor under the Securities, the applicable Guarantee or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by
