 1. Attached

Note”) representing the 2039 Notes. The Form of 2019 Note and Form of 2039 Note are herein collectively referred to as the “Forms of Notes.” The Forms of Notes set forth certain of the terms required to be set forth in this

the “Notes.” 
 2. The title of the 2019 Notes shall be the “Senior Notes due 2019,” and the title
of the 2039 Notes shall be the “Senior Notes due 2039.”

such Notes will be treated as part of the respective series of Notes for all purposes under the Indenture. 

 5. The Notes shall be issued as Global Securities only and will be exchangeable for
certificated notes (“Certificated Notes”) only if: 
 (a) DTC (x) notifies the Company that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as depository for the Global Securities or (y) at any time has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when it is required to be registered and, in either case, the Company
fails to appoint a successor depository registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of notification to the Company or the Company becoming aware of DTC’s ceasing to be so registered, as the case may be; 
 (b) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing to the effect that the Company elects to cause the issuance of the
Certificated Notes; or 
 (c) there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. 

Certificated Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Security or beneficial interests in Global Securities will be registered in the names, and
issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the depository (in accordance with its customary procedures). 
 6. The Notes shall be denominated in Dollars and payments of principal and interest shall be made in Dollars.

In addition to the provisions set forth in Article IV of the Indenture, the following additional provisions shall apply to the Notes and shall be incorporated into the Indenture with respect to the Notes: 
 Section 4.5 Change of Control Offer.

Section 5 of the Security, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that
Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth in such Security. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, a notice will be provided to Holders describing the transaction
that constitutes the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is provided (the
“Change of Control Payment Date”); provided, however, that in no event will the Change of Control Payment Date occur prior to the date 90 days following the First Issue Date.

Notes properly tendered; and 
 (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together
with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a Default in the payment of the
Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. 
 (d) The Company will comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To
the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached
its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict. 
 (e) For the
purposes of this Section 4.5 only, the following definitions shall apply: 
 “Beneficial Owner” shall be
determined in accordance with Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act or any successor provisions, except that a Person will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all shares that Person has the right to acquire irrespective of whether that

than number of shares; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed Beneficial Owner of, or to own beneficially, (A) any securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any

to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control under clause (1) above if (i) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
of a holding company and (ii) (A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately

OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN. 
 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
  

	 	(1)	INTEREST. Amgen Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 5.70% per annum from
January 16, 2009 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest
Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be
August 1, 2009; provided further that after August 1, 2009, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

  

	 	(2)	 METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of
business on the day that is 15 days prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (whether or not such day is a Business Day), even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as
provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and
State of New York (or, if the Company fails to maintain such office or agency, at the corporate trust office of the trustee in New York, 

	 	 
New York or if the trustee does not maintain an office in New York, at the office of a paying agent in New York), or, at the option of the Company, payment
of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest on all
Global Securities and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in the currency of the United States of America. 

  

	 	(3)	PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 

  

	 	(4)	INDENTURE. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture dated August 4, 2003 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Indenture”), and those
made part of the Indenture by the Officers’ Certificate dated January 16, 2009 delivered pursuant thereto (the “Officers’ Certificate”) and the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and the Holders are
referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. 

  

	 	(5)	OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. At any time prior to maturity, the Company will have the option to redeem all or a part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice,
at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) 100% of the principal amount of any Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date, and (2) the Make-Whole Amount. Unless the Company defaults
in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 

  

	 	(6)	NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its
registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in
denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. 

  

	 	(7)	MANDATORY REDEMPTION. Except as provided in Section 8 below, the Company is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

  

	 	(8)	CHANGE OF CONTROL TRIGGERING EVENT. In the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Holders may require the Company to purchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at
a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 of the Officers’ Certificate. 

  

	 	(9)	DEFEASANCE PRIOR TO MATURITY. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default
with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein. 

	 	(10)	RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. The Indenture and the Officers’ Certificate impose certain limitations on the Company and its Subsidiaries, including limitations on the Company’s
and its Subsidiaries’ ability to create or incur certain Liens on any of their respective properties or assets and to enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions and on the Company’s ability to engage in mergers or consolidations
or the conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its properties and assets. These limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions and reference is made to the Indenture and the Officers’
Certificate for a description thereof. 

  

	 	(11)	DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be
registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any
taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.
Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

  

	 	(12)	PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

  

	 	(13)	AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event or Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, 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 make any change that would not adversely affect the rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to provide for the
issuance of any additional notes as permitted by the Indenture, to appoint a successor trustee with respect to the notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture necessary to provide for the administration of the trusts in the
Indenture by more than one trustee, or to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA. No amendment to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the Indenture made
solely to conform the Indenture to the description of notes contained in the Prospectus Supplement related to the Notes, dated January 13, 2009 will be deemed to adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

  

	 	(14)	DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared (or, in certain cases, shall ipso facto become) due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

  

	 	(15)	TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same
rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

	 	(16)	NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee or stockholder of the Company shall not 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 by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of
the Notes. 

  

	 	(17)	AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 

  

	 	(18)	ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=
joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

  

	 	(19)	CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the
Notes, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance
may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

  

	 	(20)	GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS
OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. 

 The Company will
furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture and/or the Officers’ Certificate.

Security and the form of any legend or legends to be borne by any such Global Security in addition to or in lieu of the Global Securities Legend; 
 (t) any Trustee, authenticating agent, Paying Agent, transfer agent or Registrar; 
 (u) the
applicability of, and any addition to or change in, the covenants and definitions set forth in Articles IV or V which applies to Securities of the Series; 
  

 8 

 (v) the terms, if any, of any Guarantee of the payment of principal, premium and interest
with respect to Securities of the Series and any corresponding changes to the provisions of this Indenture and as then in effect; 
 (w) the subordination, if any, of the Securities of the Series pursuant to this Indenture and any changes or additions to the provisions of this Indenture then in effect; 
 (x) with regard to Securities of the Series that do not bear interest, the dates for certain required reports to the Trustee; 

(y) any U.S. Federal Income tax consequences applicable to the Securities; and 
 (z) any other terms of Securities of the Series (which terms shall not be prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture). 
 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 or Officers’ Certificate referred to above, and the authorized principal amount of any Series may not be increased to provide for issuances of additional Securities of
such Series, unless otherwise provided in such Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officers’ Certificate. 
 SECTION 2.03.
Execution and Authentication. One or more Officers of the Issuer shall sign the Securities on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. The Issuer’s seal, if any, shall be impressed, affixed, imprinted or reproduced on the
Securities and may be in facsimile form. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the
Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid. 
 A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual
signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. A Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, unless otherwise provided by a
Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate. 
 The Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time,
authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate, upon receipt by the Trustee of an Issuer Order and an Opinion of Counsel. Such Issuer
Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Issuer or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. 
 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 

  

 9 

 
set forth in the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.02, except as provided in
Section 2.08. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities.
Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, 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 any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

 SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place or
places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to Section 2.02, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where
Securities of such Series may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more co-registrars
and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent for
each Series of Securities unless another Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued. 
 The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the Trust Indenture Act. The agreement shall implement
the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be
entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Issuer or any of its domestically organized Significant Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided,
however, that no such removal shall become effective until (1) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may
be, and delivered to the Trustee or (2) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (1) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may
resign at any time upon written notice; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Registrar or Paying Agent only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08. 
 SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the
Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Securities, or the 

  

 10 

 
Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series of Securities, and will notify the Trustee of any
default by the Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries acts as Paying
Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of any Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent. 
 SECTION 2.06. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each Series of Securities
and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall 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 2.07. Transfer and Exchange. Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of
Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the
Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar
governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06 or 9.05). 
 Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period
beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (b) to register
the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 
 SECTION 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute
and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and
(ii) such security or 

  

 11 

 
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the
Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any Series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen
Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that Series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 SECTION 2.09. Outstanding Securities. The Securities outstanding at
any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions
hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding. 
 If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it ceases to be
outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the
Paying Agent holds at the Maturity of Securities of a Series money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities of the Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

 A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities of any Series have given any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of an Original Issue Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and
payable as of the date of such 

  

 12 

 
determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02. 
 SECTION 2.10. Treasury Securities. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred
in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Issuer shall be disregarded, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver only Securities of a Series that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
 SECTION 2.11. Temporary Securities. Until Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate temporary Securities upon the
Issuer’s Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and
the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate Definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary Securities shall have the same rights under this
Indenture as the Definitive Securities. 
 SECTION 2.12. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee
for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange,
payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Issuer, unless the Issuer otherwise directs. The
Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid for or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 SECTION
2.13. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the persons who
are Holders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix the record date and payment date. At least 30 days before the record date, the Issuer shall mail to the Trustee and to each Holder of the Series a notice that states
the record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Issuer may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner. 
 SECTION 2.14. Global Securities. 
 (a) Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture hereto or
an Officers’ Certificate shall establish whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities. 
  

 13 

 (b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in
Section 2.07 of this Indenture and in addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.07 of this 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 Issuer 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 Issuer fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days of such event, (ii) the Issuer executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Global Security shall be so
exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be
exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall 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(b) 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.

 (c) Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THIS GLOBAL SECURITY IS HELD BY THE DEPOSITARY (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS SECURITY) OR ITS NOMINEE IN CUSTODY FOR THE BENEFIT OF
THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS HEREOF, AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO ANY PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EXCEPT THAT (I) THE TRUSTEE MAY MAKE SUCH NOTATIONS HEREON AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO SECTION 9.05 OF THE INDENTURE, (II) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY
BE EXCHANGED IN WHOLE BUT NOT IN PART PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.07 OF THE INDENTURE, (III) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.12 OF THE INDENTURE AND (IV) THIS GLOBAL SECURITY MAY BE TRANSFERRED
TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY WITH THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ISSUER (AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE GOVERNING THIS SECURITY).” 
 (d)
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 this Indenture. 
 (e) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 2.02, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof. 
  

 14 

 (f) Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section 2.14(e), the Issuer,
the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a person as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a written statement of the 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 Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of
redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and that reliance
may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. 
 ARTICLE III 
 Redemption 
 SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. The Issuer, with respect to any Series of Securities, may elect to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or
may covenant to redeem and pay the Series of Securities or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms provided for in such Series of Securities. If a Series of Securities is redeemable and the Issuer wants
or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of Securities of
the Series to be redeemed and the redemption price. The Issuer shall give such notice to the Trustee at least 30 days before the redemption date unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period. 
 SECTION 3.02. Selection of Securities To Be Redeemed. Unless otherwise provided for a particular Series of Securities by a Board Resolution, a
supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, if fewer than all the Securities of a particular Series are to be redeemed or purchased, the Trustee shall select the Securities of such Series to be redeemed or purchased pro rata or by lot
or by a method that complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and that the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate and in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection
by fiduciaries in similar circumstances. The Trustee shall make the selection at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date from outstanding Securities of a Series not previously called for redemption. Securities and portions
thereof that the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed. 
  

 15 

 SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise provided for a particular Series of
Securities by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Issuer shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to
each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address. 
 The notice shall identify the Securities to be
redeemed and shall state: 
 (1) the redemption date; 
 (2) the redemption price; 
 (3) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Security; 
 (4) the name
and address of the Paying Agent; 
 (5) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to
collect the redemption price; 
 (6) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is
prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Securities and/or provision of this Indenture pursuant to which the Securities called for redemption are being
redeemed; 
 (8) the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed; and 
 (9) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed
on the Securities. 
 At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption as provided to it in the Issuer’s
name and at the Issuer’s expense. In such event, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section. 
 SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the
Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice. 
 Failure to give notice or any defect in the
notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder. 
  

 16 

 SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the
redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Issuer is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all
Securities to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation. The Paying Agent shall as promptly as practicable return to the
Issuer any money deposited with it by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Securities to be redeemed. If such money is then held by the Issuer in trust and is not required for
such purpose it shall be discharged from such trust. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the
Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
 SECTION 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part.
Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Issuer’s expense) a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security
surrendered. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 Covenants 
 SECTION 4.01. Payment of Securities. The Issuer shall promptly make all payments in respect of each
Series of Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in such Series of Securities and in this Indenture. Such payments shall be considered made on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this
Indenture, money sufficient to make all payments with respect to such Securities then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture. 
 SECTION 4.02. SEC Reports. Unless otherwise provided for a particular Series of Securities in a Board Resolution, a
supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, notwithstanding that the Issuer may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall file with the SEC, and provide the Trustee
and Holders within 30 days after it files them with the SEC, copies of its annual report and the information, documents and other reports that are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Delivery of such reports, information and
documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the
Issuer’s compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Issuer also shall comply with the other provisions of Trust Indenture Act
Section 314(a). 
  

 17 

 SECTION 4.03. Compliance Certificate. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days
after the end of each Fiscal Year of the Issuer an Officers’ Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not
the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Issuer also shall comply with
Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a)(4). 
 SECTION 4.04. Further Instruments and Acts. The Issuer shall execute and deliver to
the Trustee such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE V 
 Successor Companies 
 SECTION 5.01. Merger and Consolidation. Unless otherwise provided for a particular Series of Securities in a Board Resolution, a supplemental
indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, the Issuer shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its properties and assets to, any Person unless: 
 (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) shall be a corporation or limited liability company
organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the
Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and this Indenture; 
 (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (iii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture.

 The Successor Company shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this
Indenture (as modified or supplemented by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officer’s Certificate), and the predecessor Issuer, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of its assets, shall be released from the
obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities. 
  

 18 

 ARTICLE VI 
 Defaults And Remedies 
 SECTION 6.01. Events of Default. Unless otherwise provided for a
particular Series of Securities by a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate, each of the following constitutes an “Event of Default” with respect to each Series of Securities: 
 (1) the Issuer’s default in any payment of the principal amount or premium, if any, on any Security of that Series when such amount
becomes due and payable at Stated Maturity, upon acceleration, required redemption or otherwise; 
 (2) the Issuer’s
failure to pay interest on any Security of that Series when such interest becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for a period of 30 days; 
 (3) the Issuer fails to comply with Section 5.01; 
 (4) the Issuer fails to comply with
any of its covenants or agreements contained in the Securities of that Series or this Indenture (other than those referred to in (1), (2), or (3) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after the notice specified below; 
 (5) the Issuer or Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case; 
 (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; 
 (C)
consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or 
 (D) makes a general
assignment for the benefit of its creditors or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; or 
 (6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 
 (A) is for relief
against the Issuer or Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 
 (B) appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or Significant
Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or 
  

 19 

 (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer or Significant Subsidiary or any
similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days. 
 The foregoing shall
constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is 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. 
 The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar
Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 A Default under clause (4) above is not an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities until the Trustee or the Holders of at least
25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series notify the Issuer of the Default and the Issuer does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (4) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the
Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” 
 The Issuer shall deliver to the
Trustee, within 30 days after 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 (4), its status and
what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default with
respect to any Series of Securities at the time outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series by notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders), may declare the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the
portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of that Series to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such amounts shall be due and payable immediately. If an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) with respect to the Issuer occurs, the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such
Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of each Series of Security shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series of Securities by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration of that Series of Securities and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any
judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default with respect to such Series of Securities have been cured or waived except nonpayment of the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the
portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities of that Series that has become due solely because of acceleration. No 

  

 20 

 
such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
 SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue
any available remedy to collect the payment of the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid
interest on the Securities of that Series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of that Series or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may institute and maintain a suit or legal proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities of a Series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in
exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities 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 cumulative. 
 SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of any Series then outstanding may by notice to the Trustee waive an existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on a Security of that Series, (ii) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any
Security of that Series when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (iii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of that Series affected. When a Default
is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right. 
 SECTION
6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series 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 with respect to that Series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of that Series or that would subject the Trustee to personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent
with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 
 SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on a Security of any Series when due, no Holder of a 

  

 21 

 
Security of that Series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities of that Series unless: 
 (1) the Holder previously gave the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default with respect to that Series is continuing;

 (2) the Holders of at least 25%, in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series make a written request to
the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holder or Holders of that Series offer to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within
60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5) the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period. 
 A Holder of Securities of any Series may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of that Series or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of that Series. 
 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 amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or
after their Maturity, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after their Maturity, 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 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer 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 7.07 to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel. 
 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 Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, their creditors or their property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations,
may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, 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 

  

 22 

 
the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
 SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VI with respect to any Series of Securities, it
shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
 FIRST: costs and expenses of collection, including all sums paid or advanced
by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7; 
 SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities of that Series for the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount
Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the
Securities of that Series for the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest,
respectively; and 
 THIRD: to the Issuer. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Issuer 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. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any Series. 
 SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in
any manner whatsoever claim to 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 Issuer (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.

compliance with such request or direction.

Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to the Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any persons authorized to sign an

 (k) The permissive right of the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty to so act. 
 SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have
if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
 SECTION 7.04. 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 Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent (other than itself as Paying
Agent), and it shall not be responsible for any statement in this Indenture, in the Securities, or in any document executed in connection with the sale of the Securities, other than those set forth in the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication. 
 SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default with respect to Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing
and if it is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of that Series notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default with respect to Securities of any Series in
payment of the principal amount of (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities of that Series, the portion thereby specified in the terms of such Security), premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on any Security of that Series,
the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders. 
 SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holder. As promptly as practicable after each May 15 beginning with the first May 15 after the
issuance of Securities pursuant to this Indenture, for so long as Securities remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture
Act. The Trustee shall also comply with Section 313(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing
to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed. The Issuer agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

 SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services
as the Issuer 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 Issuer shall 

  

 26 

 
reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, costs of preparation and
mailing of notices to Holders and reasonable costs of counsel retained by the Trustee in connection with the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel or otherwise in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable

incurred by or in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing the Indenture (including this Section 7.7) and of defending itself against any claims
(whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or otherwise). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to
notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own
willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall
have a lien prior to the Securities on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay the principal of and interest and any liquidated damages on particular Securities. 
 The Issuer’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or
termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) with respect to the Issuer, the
expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law. 
 SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The
Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of any Series by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee with

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

 (2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 
 (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
 (4) the Trustee
otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 
 If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Securities of any Series 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 Issuer shall 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 may appoint a successor Trustee to replace
the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring
Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, 

  

 27 

 
powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of that Series of Securities.
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 7.07. 
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities of that Series may
petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 If the Trustee
fails to comply with Section 7.10, after written notice hereto, the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of that Series of Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of
a successor Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations
under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.09. 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. 
 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 Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and
deliver such Securities so authenticated; and if at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
 SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a).
The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b); provided,
however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are
outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b)(1) are met. 
 SECTION 7.11.
Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or

  

 28 

 
has been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 Legal Defeasance And
Covenant Defeasance 
 SECTION 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Issuer may, at the option of
its Board of Directors evidenced by resolutions set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities of any Series upon compliance with the conditions
set forth below in this Article VIII. 
 Unless otherwise provided for in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an
Officers’ Certificate, when (a) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities of a Series or (b) all outstanding Securities of a Series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall have
become due and payable, or are by their terms to become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year, and the Issuer shall have deposited with the Trustee as trust funds the entire amount sufficient to pay at
maturity or upon redemption of all outstanding Securities of the Series, and if, in either case, the Issuer shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable under the Indenture by the Issuer, then the Indenture shall cease to be of further
effect with respect to such Securities of such Series. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture on demand of the Issuer accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and
expense of the Issuer. 
 SECTION 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02 with respect to any Series of Securities, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities of that Series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to
have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities of that Series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture with respect to such Securities of such Series (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of
the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of that Series to receive solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as
more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when such payment are due; 
 (b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Securities of that Series under Article II; 
  

 29 

 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s
obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Article VIII. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its
option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 SECTION 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 with respect to any Series of Securities, the Issuer shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under the
covenants contained in a Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture or an Officers’ Certificate with respect to the outstanding Securities of that Series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities of that Series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any
thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this
purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of that Series, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant,
whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to such Securities under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the
Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof with respect to any Series of Securities, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof and
Sections 6.01(3) and 6.01(4) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default with respect to such Securities. 
 SECTION 8.04.
Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Securities: 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to any Series of Securities: 
 (1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of that Series of Securities, cash in
U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the outstanding Securities of that Series on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be; 
  

 30 

 (2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuer shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that: 
 (a) the
Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (b) 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 Holders of the outstanding Securities of that Series will not recognize income,
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same time as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred; 
 (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities of that Series 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, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (4) no Default or Event of Default with respect to that Series of Securities shall have occurred and be continuing either: 
 (a) on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default with respect to that Series of Securities resulting from the borrowing of
funds to be applied to such deposit); or 
 (b) insofar as Sections 6.01(5) or 6.01(6) hereof are concerned, at any time in the period
ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit; 
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries are a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries are bound; 
 (6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that on the
91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 
 (7) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with
the intent of preferring the Holders of that Series of Securities over any other creditors of the Issuer or with 

  

 31 

 
the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others; and 
 (8) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 SECTION 8.05.

(or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of any outstanding Series of Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all
sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities of that
Series. 
 Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time
upon the request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance. 
 SECTION 8.06. Repayment to the Issuer. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held
by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the
Issuer on their request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of
the Issuer cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which 

  

 32 

 
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the
Issuer. 
 SECTION 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government
Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 thereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s
obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in
accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Issuer shall 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 IX 
 Amendments 
 SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities without notice to or consent of
any Holder: 
 (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Issuer pursuant to Article V and the assumption by
such successor of the Issuer’s covenants, agreements and obligations in this Indenture and in the Securities; 
 (2) to
surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer by this Indenture, to add to the covenants of the Issuer such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions for the protection of the Holders of all or any Series of Securities as
the Boards of Directors of the Issuer shall consider to be for the protection of the Holders of such Securities, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in respect of any such additional covenants, restrictions,
conditions or provisions a Default or an Event of Default under this Indenture; provided, however, that with respect to any such additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision, such amendment may provide for a period of grace
after default, which may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other Defaults, may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such Default, may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such Default or may limit the right of
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any Series to waive such default; 
 (3) to cure any
ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision contained in this Indenture, in any supplemental indenture or in any Securities that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained therein; 
 (4) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Trustee, or to make such other provisions in regard to
matters or questions 

  

 33 

 
arising under this Indenture as shall not adversely affect the interests of any Holders of Securities of any Series; 
 (5) to modify or amend this Indenture in such a manner as to permit the qualification of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture
under the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect; 
 (6) to add or to change any of the provisions of this Indenture to provide
that Securities in bearer form may be registrable as to principal, to change or eliminate any restrictions on the payment of principal or premium with respect to Securities in registered form or of principal, premium or interest with respect to
Securities in bearer form, or to permit Securities in registered form to be exchanged for Securities in bearer form, so as to not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities or any coupons of any Series in any material respect or
permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities of any Series in uncertificated form; 
 (7) in the case of subordinated
Securities, to make any change in the provisions of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture relating to subordination that would limit or terminate the benefits available to any holder of senior Indebtedness under such provisions (but only if
each such holder of senior Indebtedness consents to such change); 
 (8) to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities or
to secure the Securities; 
 (9) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; 
 (10) to add to, change, or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture with respect to one or more Series of Securities, so long as
any such addition, change or elimination not otherwise permitted under this Indenture shall (A) neither apply to any Security of any Series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such
provision nor modify the rights of the Holders of any such Security with respect to the benefit of such provision or (B) become effective only when there is no such Security outstanding; 
 (11) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor or separate Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or
more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of this Indenture by more than one Trustee; or 
 (12) to establish the form or terms of Securities and coupons of any Series pursuant to Article II. 
 SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities of any Series without notice to any
Holder but 

  

 34 

 
with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each Series then outstanding (including consents
obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Securities) affected by such amendment. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment may not: 
 (1) make any change to the percentage of principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, the consent of whose Holders is
required for any amendment, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture; 
 (2) reduce the principal amount of, premium, if any, or interest on, or extend the Stated Maturity or interest payment periods of any
Security; 
 (3) make any Security payable in money or securities other than that stated in the Security; 
 (4) make any change that adversely affects such Holder’s right to require the Issuer to purchase the Securities in accordance with
the terms thereof and this Indenture; 
 (5) impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any
payment with respect to the Securities; 
 (6) in the case of any subordinated Securities, or coupons appertaining thereto,
make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to subordination that adversely affects the rights of any Holder under such provisions; 
 (7) except as provided under Article VIII hereof or in accordance with the terms of any Guarantee, release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee or make any change in a Guarantee that
would adversely affect the Holder of the Securities; or 
 (8) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 or the second
sentence of this Section 9.02. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 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 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to all affected Holders a notice briefly describing such
amendment. The failure to give such notice to all such Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section. 
 SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 
  

 35 

 SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a
waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not
made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or
waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective once both (i) the requisite number of consents have been received by the Issuer or the Trustee and
(ii) such amendment or waiver has been executed by the Issuer and the Trustee. 
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a
record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the
immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders 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 Securities. If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the
Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the
Security shall issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security 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 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 satisfactory to it and to
receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment is the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). 
 SECTION 9.07. Payment for Consent. Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer 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 Securities unless such consideration is offered to be
paid to all Holders of such Series of Securities, 

  

 36 

 
ratably, that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.
