Section 104            Acts

by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided,
such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes
referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument
or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 104.

 

Without limiting the generality
of this Section 104, unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, (1) a Holder, including a Depositary
or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Security, may give, make or take, by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing, any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted in or pursuant to this Indenture to be
given, made or taken by Holders, and a Depositary or its nominee that is a Holder of a Global Security may duly appoint in writing as
its agent or agents members of, or participants in, such Depositary holding interests in such Global Security in the records of such Depositary;
and (2) with respect to any Global Security the Depositary for which is The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”),
any consent or other action given, made or taken by an “agent member” of DTC by electronic means in accordance with the Automated
Tender Offer Procedures system or other Applicable Procedures of, and pursuant to authorization by, DTC shall be deemed to constitute

Trustee upon the delivery by DTC of an “agent’s message” or other notice of such consent or other action having been
so given, made or taken in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of DTC.

by any Person of any instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary
public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or
writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of
any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee
deems sufficient.

 

The ownership of Securities
shall be proved by the Security Register.

 

Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and
the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action
is made upon such Security.

With respect to Securities
of any series, the Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such
series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided
or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, provided that the Company may
set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving, making or taking of any notice,
declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders
of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to give, make or take the
relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such action
shall be effective hereunder unless given, made or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company
from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the
record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph
shall be construed to render ineffective any action given, made or taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities
of the relevant series on the date such action is given, made or taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph,
the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration
Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Sections 105
and 106.

 

The Trustee may set any day
as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving, making
or taking of (A) any Notice of Default, (B) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (C) any
request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (D) any direction referred to in Section 512,
in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to give, make or take such notice, declaration,
request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however, that no such
action shall be effective hereunder unless given, made or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent
the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon
the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action given, made or taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is given, made or taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner
set forth in Sections 105 and 106.

 

With respect to any record
date set pursuant to this Section 104, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration
Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change
shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder
of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date.
If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 104, the party hereto
which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with
respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date to an earlier day as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

 

Without limiting the foregoing,
a Holder entitled hereunder to give, make or take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so, in person or
by an agent duly appointed in writing, with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security.

 

Section 105            Notices,
Etc., to Trustee, Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document
provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by

All requests, demands, authorizations,
directions, notices, consents, waivers or Acts of Holders or other such documents made, given, furnished or filed with or to the Company
shall be deemed to have been duly made, given, furnished or filed: (A) at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; (B) five
calendar days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; (C) when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and
(D) the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next Business Day delivery.
Notices given by publication will be deemed given on the first date on which publication is made. Any notice or communication to the Trustee
shall be deemed delivered upon receipt by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee.

 

Section 106            Notice
to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice or other communication to Holders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if given in writing and mailed by first class mail (registered or certified,
return receipt requested) or sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next Business Day delivery, to each Holder affected by such event,
at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the
earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice or other communication. Any notice or other communication shall also
be so mailed or sent to any Person described in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, to the extent required by the Trust
Indenture Act. Failure to mail or send a notice or other communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency
with respect to other Holders.

 

If a notice or communication
is mailed or sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.
Where this Indenture provides for notice or other communication in any manner, such notice or other communication may be waived in writing
by the Person entitled to receive such notice or other communication, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent
of such notice or other communication. Waivers of notice or other communication by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. If the Company mails a notice or
communication to the Holders, it shall mail a copy to the Trustee at the same time.

 

In case by reason of the suspension
of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice or other communication by mail,
then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder.

 

Where this Indenture provides
for notice or other communication with respect to any event or otherwise to a Holder of a Global Security, such notice or other communication
shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Security (or its designee), pursuant to its Applicable Procedures, not
later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice or other
communication.

Security in the case of any payment due at the Maturity of the principal thereof or any payment of interest becomes payable on a day other
than an Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if this Security is not a Global Security, (1) payment of interest
on an Interest Payment Date will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in

on any Interest Payment Date, the Holder thereof on the related Regular Record Date delivers a written request to the Paying Agent to
make such payment by wire transfer at least five Business Days before the date such payment becomes due, together with appropriate wire
transfer instructions specifying an account at a bank in New York, New York, the Company shall make such payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to such account at such bank in New York City, any such wire instructions, once properly given by a Holder as to this

above and provided further, that notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, if this Security is a Global Security,
payment shall be made pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary as permitted in said Indenture.

rights of the Holders of the Securities to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange
offer for, Securities) of all Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected (considered together as one class for this purpose and
such Securities to be affected potentially being Securities of the same or different series and, with respect to any series, potentially
comprising fewer than all the Securities of such series), except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to the Indenture for all or any
specific Securities of any series. The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount
(including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of the Securities at
the time Outstanding to be affected under the Indenture (considered together as one class for this purpose and such affected Securities
potentially being Securities of the same or different series and, with respect to any particular series, potentially comprising fewer
than all the Securities of such series), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities so affected, to waive compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained
in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of the Securities at the time Outstanding of any
series to be affected under the Indenture (with each such series considered separately for this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of
all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture with respect to such series and their consequences,
in the case of Clause (i) or (ii), except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to the Indenture for all or any
specific Securities of any series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

 

As provided in and subject
to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the
Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously
given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less
than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it, and the Trustee
shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction
inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request
and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

 

No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin
or currency, herein prescribed.

or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested
by the Holder surrendering the same.

 

No service charge shall be
made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Resolution referred to above and (subject to Section 303) set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in the Officers’
Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the
same time and, unless otherwise provided pursuant to this Section 301 for any series, after issuance of Securities of such
series, such series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of that series.

 

The terms of any Security
of a series may differ from the terms of other Securities of the same series, if and to the extent provided pursuant to this Section 301.
The matters referenced in any or all of Clauses (1) through (23) above may be established and set forth or determined
as aforesaid with respect to all or any specific Securities of a series (in each case to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act).

 

If any of the terms of the
series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified
by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’
Certificate setting forth the terms of the series.

The Securities of each series shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in such denominations as shall be specified
as contemplated by Section 301. In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Securities of any series,
the Securities of such series shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

Section 303            Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Chief
Executive Officer, President or any Vice President of the Company (or any other officer of the Company designated in writing by or pursuant
to authority of the Board of Directors and delivered to the Trustee from time to time). The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile.

 

At any time and from time
to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company,
to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate
and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more
Board Resolutions, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall
be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

 

(1)            if
the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution, as permitted by Section 201, that such
form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

 

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

 

    17

     

    

 

(3)            that
when such Securities have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions
specified in such Opinion of Counsel, such Securities will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable
in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of
general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles and subject to any limitation
with respect to payments in currency other than U.S. dollars.

 

If such form or terms have
been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this
Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner
which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time,
it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 or the Company
Order, and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication of each Security
of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such
series to be issued.

 

Each Security shall be dated
the date of its authentication.

 

No Security shall be entitled
to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall
be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the
Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, for all purposes of this Indenture
such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture.

 

Section 304            Temporary
Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order, the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced,
in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced
by their execution of such Securities.

 

If temporary Securities of
any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities
of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment
for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series,
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the
same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities
of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and
tenor.

 

Section 305            Registration,
Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at each office or agency of the Company designated as a
Place of Payment pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 1002 a register (the register, maintained in each such office
or agency of the Company designated as a Place of Payment, being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration
of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering
Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

 

Upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Security of a series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities
of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

 

    18

     

    

 

At the option of the Holder,
Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities, which the Holder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

All Securities issued upon
any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

 

Every Security presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

No service charge shall be
made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other
than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 906, or 1107 not involving any transfer.

 

If the Securities of any series
(or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in whole or in part, the Company shall not be required (x) to issue, register
the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of selection of any such Securities for redemption under Section 1103
and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection (or during such period as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 301
for such Securities), or (y) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

 

The Trustee shall have no
obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or
under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security other than to require delivery of such certificates
and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture,
and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

 

The provisions of Clauses (1),
(2), (3) and (4) below shall apply only to Global Securities:

 

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

 

(2)            Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Indenture, and subject to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified as contemplated by Section 301,
no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in
part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such
Depositary has notified the Company that it (i) is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (ii) has
ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, or (B) the Company has executed and delivered to the Trustee a
Company Order stating that such Global Security shall be exchanged in whole for Securities that are not Global Securities (in which case
such exchange shall promptly be effected by the Trustee). If the Company receives a notice of the kind specified in Clause (A) above
or has delivered a Company Order of the kind specified in Clause (B) above, it may, in its sole discretion, designate
a successor Depositary for such Global Security within 90 days after receiving such notice or delivery of such order, as the case may
be. If the Company designates a successor Depositary as aforesaid, such Global Security shall promptly be exchanged in whole for one or
more other Global Securities registered in the name of the successor Depositary, whereupon such designated successor shall be the Depositary
for such successor Global Security or Global Securities and the provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and
(4) of this provision shall continue to apply thereto.

 

    19

     

    

 

(3)            Subject
to Clause (2) above and to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified as contemplated by Section 301,
any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities may be made in whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for a Global
Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct.

 

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

 

Every Person who takes or
holds any beneficial interest in a Global Security agrees that:

 

(5)            the
Company and the Trustee may deal with the Depositary as sole owner of the Global Security and as the authorized representative of such
Person;

 

(6)            such
Person’s rights in the Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established
by law and agreement between such Person and the Depositary and/or direct and indirect participants of the Depositary;

 

(7)            the
Depositary and its participants make book-entry transfers of beneficial ownership among, and receive and transmit distributions of principal
and interest on the Global Securities to, such Persons in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary;

 

(8)            none
of the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests; and

 

(9)            the
transferor of any Security shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply
with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045
of the Code. The Trustee may rely on information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such
information. In connection with any proposed exchange of a Security that is not a Global Security for a Global Security, the Company or
the Depositary shall be required to provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply
with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045
of the Code. The Trustee may rely on information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such
information.

 

Section 306            Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost and Wrongfully Taken Securities. If (1) any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or (2) both
(A) there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) a claim by a Holder as to the destruction, loss or wrongful
taking of any Security of such Holder and a request thereby for a new replacement Security of the same series, and (ii) such indemnity
bond as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless and (B) such other reasonable requirements
as may be imposed by the Company as permitted by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code have been satisfied, then, in the absence
of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a “protected purchaser” within the meaning
of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor
and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding.

 

    20

     

    

 

In case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead
of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

 

Upon the issuance of any new
Security under this Section 306, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

 

Every new Security of any
series issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security shall be at
any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all
other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

 

The provisions of this Section 306
are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities.

 

Section 307            Payment
of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any
Securities of a series, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on the Regular Record Date for such interest (or, if no business is conducted by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office on such date,
at 5:00 P.M.  New York City time on such date).

 

Any interest on any Security
of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted
Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been
such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or
(2) below:

 

(1)            The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest payable on any Securities of a series to the Persons in whose names such Securities
(or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such
Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted
Interest proposed to be paid on each of such Securities and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit
with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held
in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix
a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior
to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.
The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such Special Record Date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder
of such Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest
shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). The Trustee shall
have no duty whatsoever to determine whether any Defaulted Interest is payable or the amount thereof.

 

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

 

    21

     

    

 

Except as may otherwise be
provided in this Section 307 or as contemplated in Section 301 with respect to any Securities of a series, the
Person to whom interest shall be payable on any Security that first becomes payable on a day that is not an Interest Payment Date shall
be the Holder of such Security on the day such interest is paid.

 

Subject to the foregoing provisions
of this Section 307, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in
lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

 

In the case of any Security
which is converted after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Security
whose Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable
on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion, and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for)
shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on such Regular Record Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Security
which is converted, interest whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion of such Security shall not be payable.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the terms of any Security that may be converted may provide that the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph do not apply, or
apply with such additions, changes or omissions as may be provided thereby, to such Security.

 

Section 308            Persons
Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company and the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose
of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all
other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or
the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

Section 309            Cancellation.
All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion or for credit against any sinking
fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by
it in accordance with its customary procedures. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or
to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company
has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated
in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 309, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures.

 

Section 310            Computation
of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the
Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

Section 311            CUSIP
Numbers. The Company, in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use),
and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders;
provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed
on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall
promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers.

Article IV

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

 

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

 

(1)           either

 

(A)          all
such Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or wrongfully
taken and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Securities for the payment of which money
has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged
from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

 

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

 

(i)            have
become due and payable, or

 

(ii)            will
become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

 

(iii)            are
to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the
Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

 

and the Company in the case of (i), (ii),
or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such
purpose money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have
become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

 

(2)           the
Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to such Securities;

 

(3)           no
event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other
Securities (other than such an event or Event of Default with respect to such Securities resulting solely from the incurrence of indebtedness
or other borrowing of funds, or the grant of liens securing such indebtedness or other borrowing, all or a portion of which are to be
applied to such deposit) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit;

 

(4)           such
deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company
is a party or by which it is bound; and

 

(5)           the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Securities have been complied with.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture with respect to Securities of any series, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607,
the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 614, and, if money shall have been deposited with
the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section 401 with respect to
such Securities, the obligations of the Company of such series under Section 1002 and the obligations of the Trustee under
Section 402, Section 606 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 with respect to such Securities shall
survive such satisfaction and discharge.

 

    23

     

    

 

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

law of such non-U.S. and non-Canadian jurisdiction, for as long as such Person is the successor to the Company hereunder and is so organized
and existing); or

 

    24

or state law of a particular kind shall be deemed to refer to such law or any applicable comparable law of such non-U.S. and non-Canadian
jurisdiction, for as long as such Person is the successor to the Company hereunder and is so organized and existing); or

 

(7)           any
other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series in accordance with Section 301.

 

Section 502           Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 301 for all or any specific
Securities of any series, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or Section 501(6))
with respect to Securities of that series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount of all
the Securities of that series (or, in the case of any Security of that series which specifies an amount to be due and payable thereon
upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms thereof) to be due and payable immediately, by
a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified
amount), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable. Except as may otherwise be provided
pursuant to Section 301 for all or any specific Securities of any series, if an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or
Section 501(6) with respect to Securities of that series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all
the Securities of that series (or, in the case of any Security of that series which specifies an amount to be due and payable thereon
upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately
due and payable.

 

Except as may otherwise be
provided pursuant to Section 301 for all or any specific Securities of any series, at any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to Securities of that series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has
been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company, and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences
if

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    25

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

(2)           all
Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series
which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

 

No such rescission shall affect
any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section 503           Collection
of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if

 

(1)           default
is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period
of 60 days, or

 

(2)           default
is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee,
pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and
any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal
and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

 

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

 

Section 504            Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities,
their property or their creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take
any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such
proceeding. The Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.
To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any
reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a line on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities
and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization
or arrangement or otherwise.

 

No provision of this Indenture
shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote
in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the
Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee.

 

    26

     

    

 

Section 505           Trustee
May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may
be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding
relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and
any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has
been recovered.

 

Section 506     Application
of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any premium or interest,
upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully
paid:

 

FIRST: To the payment of all
amounts due the Trustee, its agents and attorneys hereunder;

 

SECOND: To the payment of
the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit
of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable
on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively; and

 

THIRD: To the payment of the
remainder, if any, to the Company, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same as a court of competent jurisdiction
may direct.

 

Section 507     Limitation
on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect
to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

 

(1)            such
Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series;

 

(2)            the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee
to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

 

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

 

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

 

(5)            no
direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series;

 

it being understood and intended that no one or
more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other
of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit
of all of such Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain or determine whether any action
or inaction disturbs or prejudices the rights of any Holder or seeks to obtain priority or preference over any Holder).

 

Section 508     Unconditional
Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest and to Convert. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture,
the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium
and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or,
in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date), and, if the terms of such Security so provide, to convert such Security in accordance
with its terms, and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and, if applicable, any such right to convert, and such
rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 

    27

     

    

 

Section 509     Restoration
of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture
and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder,
then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall
continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

 

Section 510            Rights
and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or
wrongfully taken Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or
in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion
or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

 

Section 511            Delay
or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing
upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time,
and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

 

Section 512            Control
by Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that

 

(1)            the
Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with any rule of law or with this Indenture or that the Trustee determines
is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain
whether or not any such direction unduly prejudices the rights of such Holders);

 

(2)            the
Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it being furnished prior to taking such action;

 

(3)            the
Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction; and

 

(4)            subject
to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee
shall determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

 

Section 513            Waiver
of Past Defaults. Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 301 for all or any specific Securities of any
series, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender
offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of the Outstanding Securities of any series to be affected under this Indenture may on behalf
of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences,
except a default

 

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

 

    28

     

    

 

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

 

Upon any such waiver with
respect to any series, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured,
with respect to such series for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon. A waiver of any past default and its consequences given by or on behalf of any Holder of Securities
in connection with a purchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, such Holder’s Securities will not be rendered invalid by such
purchase, tender or exchange.

 

Section 514            Undertaking
for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay
the costs of such suit, and may assess costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any such party litigant,
in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section 514 nor the
Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted
by the Trustee, or by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any) or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on or after the Redemption Date) or, if applicable, in any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Security in accordance
with its terms.

 

Section 515            Waiver
of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist
upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent
that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay
or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.

 

Article VI

THE TRUSTEE

 

Section 601            Certain
Duties and Responsibilities.

 

(1)            Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default,

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    29

     

    

 

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

 

(A)            this
Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of the first paragraph of this Section 601;

 

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

 

(C)            the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction
of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, determined as provided in Section 512,
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and

 

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

 

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

 

(5)            No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee shall be under
no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders
unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses, losses and
liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

 

Section 602            Notice
of Defaults. If a default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, and if
it is known to the Trustee as provided in Section 603(10), the Trustee shall send to the Holders of Securities of such series
notice of such default or Event of default within 90 days after the Trustee gains knowledge of the default or Event of Default unless
such default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice. Except in the case of a default or
Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium or interest on Securities of any series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and
so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders
of the Securities of such series. For the purpose of this Section 602 and Section 1005, the term “default”
means, with respect to Securities of any series, any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of
Default with respect to Securities of such series.

 

Section 603            Certain
Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 601:

 

(1)            the
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement,

paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering
or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) shall be entitled to receive and
may request and conclusively rely upon, and shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance upon,
an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel;

 

    30

     

    

 

(4)            the

thereon;

 

(5)            the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction

to it against the costs, losses, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

 

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

 

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

 

(8)            the
Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers
authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person
authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously
delivered and not superseded;

 

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

 

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

 

(11)            the
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its rights to be indemnified, are extended to,
and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to
act hereunder;

 

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

 

(13)            the
Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder;

 

(14)            the
right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty; and

 

    31

     

    

 

(15)            under
no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Securities.

 

Section 604            Not
Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s
certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee does not assume any responsibility for
their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities or in
any other document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application
by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

 

Section 605            May Hold
Securities. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in
its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613,
may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security
Registrar or such other agent.

 

Section 606            Money
Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds and need not be held in an interest-bearing
account, in each case, except to the extent required by law or by any other provision of this Indenture. The Trustee (acting in any capacity
hereunder) shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the
Company.

 

Section 607            Compensation
and Reimbursement.

 

(1)            The
Company shall pay to the Trustee (in each of its capacities hereunder) from time to time reasonable compensation for its acceptance of
this Indenture and services hereunder in accordance with a written schedule provided by the Trustee to the Company. The Trustee’s
compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee
promptly upon request for all reasonable and customary disbursements, advances and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made
by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable and customary compensation, disbursements
and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

 

(2)            The
Company shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold the Trustee harmless (in its individual capacity and Trustee capacities) and its agents,
employees, officers and directors against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses incurred by it arising out of or
in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing
this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 607 and reasonable attorneys’ fee and expenses and court
costs) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by either of the Company or any Holder or any other person) or liability
in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability
or expense that is the result of its negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable
decision. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify
the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate
in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The
Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. As security for the
performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section 607 the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities
of any series upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal
of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of such series. Such lien shall survive satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

 

(3)            Without
limiting any rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection
with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or Section 501(6), the expenses (including the reasonable
charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under
any applicable Canadian or U.S. federal, provincial or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

 

    32

     

    

 

(4)            The
provisions of this Section 607 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 

Section 608            Conflicting
Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall
either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture
Act and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest
by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series.

 

Section 609            Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of
each series, which may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible
pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and has its Corporate Trust
Office in the continental United States of America. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law
or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 609 and to the extent
permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus
as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 609, it shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

 

Section 610            Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant
to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable
requirements of Section 611.

 

The Trustee may resign at
any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance
by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving
of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

 

The Trustee may be removed
upon 30 days’ prior written notice with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a
successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of
a notice of removal pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

 

If at any time:

 

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

 

(2)            the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company
or by any such Holder, or

 

(3)            the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property
shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

 

then, in any such case, (A) the Company by
a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to Section 514, any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee
or Trustees.

 

    33

     

    

 

If the Trustee shall resign,
be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities
of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities
of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular
series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 611. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee
shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may
petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to
the Securities of such series. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy,
a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 611, become the
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.
If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted
appointment in the manner required by Section 611, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series
for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

 

The Company shall give notice
of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 106.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate
Trust Office.

 

Section 611            Acceptance
of Appointment by Successor. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, such successor
Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request
of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring
to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such
successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor
Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer
and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect
to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee
is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that
all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the
retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions
of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee,
it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust
and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered
by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring
Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance,
shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder
with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

 

    34

     

    

 

Upon request of any such successor
Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee
all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be.

 

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

 

Section 612            Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party,
or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of
any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered,
by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication
and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

 

Section 613            Preferential
Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon
the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against
the Company (or any such other obligor).

 

Section 614            Appointment
of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to any series of Securities which
shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate the Securities of such Series issued upon original issue and
upon exchange, registration of transfer, partial conversion or partial redemption or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities
of such series so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes
as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities
of such series by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication
and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent so appointed with respect to such series and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent so appointed with respect to such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall
be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States
of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined
capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by U.S. Federal or State authority. If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section 614, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall
be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 614, such Authenticating Agent shall resign

or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

Section 902            Supplemental
Indentures With Consent of Holders. Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to for all or any specific Securities of any series,
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender

together as one class for this purpose and such affected Securities potentially being Securities of the same or different series and,
with respect to any series, potentially comprising fewer than all the Securities of such series), by Act of said Holders delivered to
the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures

(including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities),

 

(1)            change

certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture, or

 

(4)            modify

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

 

It shall not be necessary
for any Act of Holders under this Section 902 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it
shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. A consent to any indenture supplemental hereto by or on behalf of
any Holder of Securities given in connection with a purchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, such Holder’s Securities will
not be rendered invalid by such purchase, tender or exchange.

 

Section 903            Execution

Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject
to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate stating that
the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into
any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

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

 

Section 905            Conformity
with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of
the Trust Indenture Act.

 

Section 906            Reference
in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental
indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as
to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified
as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company
and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series.

 

Article X

COVENANTS

 

Section 1001           Payment
of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly
and punctually pay the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the
Securities and this Indenture. With respect to physical Securities, if any, presentation is due at maturity.

 

Section 1002           Maintenance
of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities
of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange, where Securities may be surrendered for conversion and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location,
and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or
agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made
or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands.

 

    40

     

    

 

The Company may also from
time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered
for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation
or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities
of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and
of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

 

With respect to any Global
Security, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Security as contemplated by Section 301, the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the Place of Payment where such Global Security may be presented or surrendered for payment or for
registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Securities may be delivered in exchange therefor, provided, however,
that any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary for such Global
Security shall be deemed to have been effected at the Place of Payment for such Global Security in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture.

 

Section 1003           Money
for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series
of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any of the Securities of that series,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any premium and
interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify
the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

 

Whenever the Company shall
have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each due date
of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit (or, if the Company has deposited any trust funds
with a trustee pursuant to Section 1304(1), cause such trustee to deposit) with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such
amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly
notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

 

The Company will cause each
Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying
Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 1003, that such Paying Agent will (1) comply
with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and (2) during the continuance of any default by
the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities of that
series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment
in respect of the Securities of that series.

 

The Company may at any time,
for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct
any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee
upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying
Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

 

Subject to applicable escheat
laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal
of or any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest
has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from
such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof,
and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof,
shall thereupon cease.

 

Section 1004           Corporate
Existence. Subject to Article VIII, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep
in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises; provided, however,
that the Company will not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise if it shall determine that the preservation thereof
is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company.

 

    41

     

    

 

Section 1005           Statement
by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company
ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate, stating that a review of the activities of the Company during the preceding
fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of each series Outstanding and further stating,
as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of such Officer’s actual knowledge, the Company has kept, observed,
performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture with respect to Securities of such series and is not in default in the performance
and observance of any of the material terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture with respect to Securities of such series, in
each case, so as not to result in any default or Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series (or, if a default or Event
of Default with respect to Securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing, describing all such defaults or Events of
Default of which such Officer may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or propose to take with respect thereto).

 

Section 1006           Waiver
of Certain Covenants. Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301 for all or any Securities of any series, the
Company may, with respect to all or any Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or
condition set forth in Section 1004 or in any covenant provided pursuant to Sections 301(18), 901(2), 901(6) or
901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in Article VIII if, before the time for such compliance,
the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange
offer for, Securities) of all Outstanding Securities affected by such waiver (considered together as one class for this purpose and such
affected Securities potentially being Securities of the same or different series and, with respect to any particular series, potentially
comprising fewer than all the Securities of such series) shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance
or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision
or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and
the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. A waiver of compliance
given by or on behalf of any Holder of Securities in connection with a purchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, such Holder’s
Securities will not be rendered invalid by such purchase, tender or exchange.

 

Article XI

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Section 1101           Applicability
of Article. Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their
terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities) in accordance with this Article.

 

Section 1102          Election
to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be established in or pursuant to a Board
Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. If the Company elects to redeem
the Securities pursuant to this Article XI, it shall notify the Trustee in writing at least 5 Business Days before the date
of giving the notice of redemption (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) of the Redemption Date, of the principal
amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. Such notice shall
be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from the Company to the effect that such redemption will comply
with the conditions herein. In the case of any redemption of Securities (1) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption
provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, or (2) pursuant to an election of the Company that is subject
to a condition specified in the terms of the Securities of the series to be redeemed, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’
Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition. Redemptions may be conditioned upon the occurrence of conditions
precedent with respect to the redemption.

 

Section 1103           Selection
by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities
of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities
to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption,
pro rata (and when the Securities are in the form of Global Securities, the Trustee shall select such Securities in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures of the Depositary), and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount
of any Security of such series, provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized
denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities of
such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities
to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called
for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence.

 

    42

     

    

 

If any Security selected for
partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected,
the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as it may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which
have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for the purpose of
such selection, subject to the Applicable Procedures of DTC.

 

The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company and each Security Registrar in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in case of any Securities
selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

 

The provisions of the two
preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed
in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall
be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

 

For all purposes of this Indenture,
unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities
redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

 

Section 1104           Notice
of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 not less than 10 days nor more
than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date (or within such period as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for
the relevant Securities), to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register, except that
redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of
the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article IV or Article XIII hereof,
respectively.

 

All notices of redemption
shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers, if any) and shall state:

 

(1)            the
Redemption Date,

 

(2)            the
Redemption Price,

 

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

 

(4)            that
on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that
interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(5)            the
place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price,

 

(6)            the
conditions precedent for the redemption, if any,

 

    43

     

    

 

(7)            if
such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption
date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice
may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date or by the redemption
date so delayed,

 

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

 

(9)            that
the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

 

The Company shall provide
written notice of the delay of such redemption date or the rescission of such notice of redemption (and rescission and cancellation of
the redemption of the Notes) to the Trustee no later than 10:00 A.M.  New York City time, (subject to the Applicable Procedures)
on the redemption date or the redemption date as so delayed. Upon receipt of such notice of the delay of such redemption date or the rescission
of such notice of redemption, such redemption date shall be automatically delayed or such notice of redemption shall be automatically
rescinded, as applicable, and the redemption of the Notes shall be automatically delayed or rescinded and cancelled, as applicable, as
provided in such notice.

 

Notice of redemption of Securities
to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request at least two Business Days
prior to the date the Redemption Notice will be sent (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), by the Trustee in
the name and at the expense of the Company; provided, however, that the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 1102 hereof requests that the Trustee give such notice and sets forth the information to be stated in
such notice as required by this Section 1104.

 

Section 1105           Deposit
of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or
with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003)
an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date, other than any Securities called for redemption on that date which
have been converted prior to the date of such deposit.

 

If any Security called for
redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Trustee or with any Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption
of such Security shall (subject to any right of the Holder of such Security or any Predecessor Security to receive interest as provided
in the last paragraph of Section 307 or in the terms of such Security) be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if
then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust.

 

Section 1106           Securities
Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption
Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default
in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest or unless the conditions for the redemption have not been satisfied) such
Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security
shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however,
that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior
to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at
the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307.

 

    44

     

    

 

If any Security called for
redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest
from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

 

Section 1107           Securities
Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if
the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and
the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor,
of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

 

Section 1108           No
Limit on Repurchases. Nothing in this Indenture or the Securities shall prohibit or limit the right of the Company or any Affiliate
of the Company to repurchase Securities from time to time at any price in open market purchases or private transactions at negotiated
prices, by tender offer or otherwise, in each case without any notice to or consent by Holders. Any Securities purchased by the Company
or any Affiliate of the Company may, to the extent permitted by law and at the discretion of the Company, be held, resold or delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation. Any such Securities delivered to the Trustee for cancellation may not be resold and shall be disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures.

 

Article XII

SINKING FUNDS

 

Section 1201           Applicability
of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series
except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities.

 

The minimum amount of any
sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any Securities is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,”
and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of such Securities is herein referred to as an “optional
sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of any Securities, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject
to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities as provided
for by the terms of such Securities.

 

Section 1202           Satisfaction
of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously
called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been converted in accordance with their terms
or which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application
of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part
of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities
as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been
previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption
Price, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed (or at such other prices as may be specified for such Securities as contemplated
in Section 301), for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be
reduced accordingly.

 

Section 1203           Redemption
of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to each
sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount
of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which
is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities
pursuant to Section 1202 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior
to each such sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in
the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense
of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities
shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

 

    45

     

    

 

Article XIII

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 

Section 1301           Company’s
Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Unless otherwise designated pursuant to Section 301(15), the Securities
of any series of Securities shall be subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance pursuant to such Section 1302 or Section 1303,
in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 301 and upon compliance with the conditions set
forth below in this Article. The Company may elect, at its option, at any time, to have Section 1302 or Section 1303
applied to any Securities or any series of Securities so subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance. Any such election shall be evidenced
by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities.

 

Section 1302           Defeasance
and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section 1302 applied to any Securities
or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect
to such Securities as provided in this Section 1302 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304
are satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall
be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all their other respective
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304(1) and
as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities when
payments are due, or, if applicable, to convert such Securities in accordance with their terms, (2) the obligations of the Company
with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003 and, if applicable,
their obligations with respect to the conversion of such Securities, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the
Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise its option (if any) to
have this Section 1302 applied to any Securities notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option (if any) to have Section 1303
applied to such Securities.

 

Section 1303           Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section 1303 applied to any
Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, (1) the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 1004
and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(2), 901(6) or 901(7) for the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 501(4) (with
respect to Section 1004 and any such covenants provided pursuant to Sections 301(18), 901(2), 901(6) or 901(7))
and Section 501(7) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to such
Securities as provided in this Section 1303 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304
are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means
that, with respect to such Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term,
condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 501(4)),
whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in
any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such
Securities thereof shall be unaffected thereby.

 

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

 

(1)            The
Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the
requirements contemplated by Section 609 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it) as
trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to,
the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before
the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) such other obligations or arrangements as may be specified as contemplated
by Section 301 with respect to such Securities, or (D) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient (except in the
case of clause (A), in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or a nationally recognized
investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee) to pay and discharge, and which shall be
applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on such
Securities on the respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used herein, “U.S.
Government Obligation” means (i) any security which is (a) a direct obligation of the United States of America
for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (b) an obligation of a Person controlled
or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed
as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (a) or (b), is not
callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and (ii) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of
the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in Clause (i) above and held
by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest
on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not
authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian
in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.

 

    46

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(5)            No
event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other
Securities (other than such an event or Event of Default with respect to such Securities resulting solely from the incurrence of indebtedness
or other borrowing of funds, or the grant of liens securing such indebtedness or other borrowing, all or a portion of which are to be
applied to such deposit) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit.

 

    47

     

    

 

(6)            Such
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or
instrument (other than this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned) to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

 

(7)            The
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the
intent of preferring the Holders of such Securities over the other creditors of the Company or with the intent of defeating, hindering,
delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company.

 

(8)            The
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

 

Section 1305            Deposited
Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph
of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or
other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section 1305 and Section 1306, the Trustee and any such
other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect
of any Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture,
to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent or any Subsidiary
or Affiliate of the Company) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon
in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money and U.S. Government Obligations so held in trust need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 

The Company shall pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant
to Section 1304 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

 

Anything in this Article to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S.
Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1304 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess
of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be,
with respect to such Securities.

 

Section 1306           Reinstatement.
If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article with respect to any Securities by
reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application,
then the respective obligations under this Indenture and such Securities from which the Company has been discharged or released pursuant
to Section 1302 or 1303 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with
respect to such Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1305
with respect to such Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment
of principal of or any premium or interest on any such Security following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be
subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.

 

This instrument may be executed
in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute
but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Indenture by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be
equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Indenture. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Indenture by facsimile or electronic transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Indenture, but failure
to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability and binding effect of this Indenture.

upon the Company in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held
to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to the Company so served.

Section 1404           Separability
Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture, or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality

Unless you direct otherwise, we will pay the named Owner(s), on the  Annuity Payment Date, the first of a series of annuity payments, the frequency, period, and dollar  amounts of which are determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the annuity option  payable, provided that both you and the Annuitant(s) are then living.

RIGHT TO CANCEL:  You may cancel this Annuity for a refund by notification to us in Good Order or by  returning the Annuity to our Service Office or to the representative who sold it to you within 10 days after  you receive it (60 days if the Annuity is being issued as a replacement for another annuity contract or a  life insurance policy).

We will provide you with a 30-day advance written notice of any premium limitation or restriction.

You may allocate available Account Value to the same Index  Strategy(ies) on this date once the Index Strategy(ies) has reached the Index Strategy End Date.    Index Credit: The amount of the Index Return that is credited to an Index Strategy. The Index Credit can be  expressed as a value or percentage and is credited to the Index Strategy on an Index Strategy End Date. The  Index Credit can be positive, zero or negative.

Interim Value: The value of an Index Strategy on any Valuation Day during an Index Strategy Term other than  the Index Strategy Start Date and Index Strategy End Date.  The Interim Value is a calculated value (as  described in each Index Strategy Endorsement) and is used when a withdrawal, Death Benefit payment,  annuitization, or surrender occurs between an Index Strategy Start Date and Index Strategy End Date.  During  an Index Strategy Term, the Interim Value is included in the Account Value and Surrender Value. When we  calculate the Interim Value, we obtain market data for the derivative pricing each Valuation Day from outside  vendors. If these values are available and we are delayed in receiving them and cannot calculate an Interim  Value, we will use the prior Valuation Day’s Interim Value.

The amount of your initial Purchase Payment is shown in the Annuity Schedule.  On the  Issue Date, we allocate all or part of your initial Purchase Payment to the Transfer Account, Index Strategy(ies)  and/or the Variable Sub-Accounts we make available according to your instructions.      If you allocate all or a portion of your initial Purchase Payment to the Transfer Account, on the last Valuation Day  of the Transfer Account Period, we will transfer your Account Value in the Transfer Account to the Index  Strategy(ies) according to your instructions on file with us unless you have provided us with alternate instructions  for when to establish your Index Effective Date. If you specify a date to establish your Index Effective Date that is  after the Transfer Account Period, any Account Value allocated to the Transfer Account on the last Valuation  Day of the Transfer Account Period will be transferred to the Holding Account until the Index Effective Date you  specify, when it will be transferred to the Index Strategy(ies) according to your allocation instructions on file with  us.     If there is Account Value allocated to the Transfer Account at the end of the Transfer Account Period without  instructions, those funds will be transferred to the Holding Account.    If there is no Account Value allocated to the Transfer Account on the last Valuation Day of the Transfer Account  Period no transfer to the Index Strategy(ies) will occur.      Additional Purchase Payments:  Additional Purchase Payments are subject to the Purchase Payment  Limitation, Maximum Total Purchase Paymentsand the Minimum Additional Purchase Payment shown in the  Annuity Schedule.  We may further limit or reject, in a non-discriminatory manner, additional Purchase Payments  if:  a) market and/or economic conditions decline to a point where the yield on investments or the cost and  availability of hedging options to support the replication of the index strategy credits does not allow us  to support the guarantees of the Annuity; or  b) we offer a modified version of this contract for new business; or   c) we no longer make the contract available for new business.     We will provide you with a 30-day advance written notice of any premium limitation or restriction   Additional  Purchase Payments will be allocated to the Variable Sub-Accounts according to your instructions.  If you have  not provided any allocation instructions with the additional Purchase Payment, we will allocate it to the Holding  Account. 

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY  11    Additional Purchase Payments may not be allocated to an existing Index Strategy between the Index Strategy  Start and End Dates nor may they be allocated to a new Index Strategy(ies) between Index Anniversary Dates.   We will allocate Additional Purchase Payments to the Holding Account until the next Index Anniversary Date  when you may transfer the Account Value in the Holding Account as described in the Allocation of Account Value  section below.    ACCOUNT VALUE    Account Value in the Index Strategy(ies):  At any time after the Issue Date, on any Valuation Day other than  the Index Strategy Start Date and Index Strategy End Date, the portion of Account Value allocated to an Index  Strategy is equal to the Interim Value for each Index Strategy as described in the Index Strategy Endorsements.  The Interim Value does not apply to an Index Strategy on the Index Strategy Start Date and the Index Strategy  End Date. On an Index Strategy Start Date, the Index Strategy Base applicable to that Index Strategy would be  used instead of the Interim Value. On the Index Strategy End Date, the Index Strategy Base plus the Index  Credit, less any withdrawals would be used instead of the Interim Value.    Account Value in the Variable Sub-Accounts:  We determine your Account Value separately for each Variable  Sub-Account we make available.  To determine the Account Value in each Variable Sub-Account, we multiply  the Unit Price, as of the Valuation Day for which the calculation is being made, by the number of Units  attributable to your Annuity in that Variable Sub-Account as of that Valuation Day.     Units:  The number of Units attributable to this Annuity in a Variable Sub-Account is the number of Units   purchased less the number of Units liquidated.  We determine the number of Units involved in any transaction  specified in dollars by dividing the dollar value of the transaction by the Unit Price of the affected Variable Sub- Account as of the Valuation Day applicable to such transaction.    Unit Price:  The Unit Price for each Variable Sub-Account is the net investment factor for that Valuation Period,  multiplied by the Unit Price for the immediately preceding Valuation Day.  The Unit Price for a Valuation Period  applies to each Valuation Day in the period.    Net Investment Factor:  Each Variable Sub-Account has a net investment factor. The net investment factor is  an index that measures the investment performance of, and charges assessed against, a Variable Sub-Account  from one Valuation Period to the next.    The net investment factor for a Valuation Period is (a) divided by (b), less (c), where:    (a) is the net result of:  (1) the net asset value per share of the Portfolios held by that Variable Sub-Account at the end  of the current Valuation Period plus the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain  distribution declared and unpaid (accrued) by the Portfolio, plus or minus    (2) any per share charge or credit during the current Valuation Period as a provision for taxes  attributable to the operation or maintenance of that Variable Sub-Account.    (b) is the net result of:  (1) the net asset value per share of the Portfolios held by that Variable Sub-Account at the end  of the preceding Valuation Period plus the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain  distribution declared and unpaid (accrued) by the Portfolio, plus or minus    (2) any per share charge or credit during the preceding Valuation Period as a provision for taxes  attributable to the operation or maintenance of the Variable Sub-Account.    (c) is the Insurance Charge and any applicable charge assessed against a Variable Sub-Account for  any Rider attached to this Annuity corresponding to the portion of the 365 day year (366 for a leap  year) that is in the current Valuation Period.  

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 12    We value the assets in the Variable Sub-Account(s) at their fair market value in accordance with accepted  accounting practices and applicable laws and regulations. The net investment factor may be greater than, equal to,  or less than one.  ALLOCATION OF ACCOUNT VALUE    You may allocate your Account Value among the Allocation Options we make available as outlined in the  transfer sections below.  We may limit the availability of Allocation Options for additional Purchase Payments or  transfers.  The Variable Sub-Accounts available for allocation of Account Value as of the Issue Date are the  Variable Sub-Accounts of the Variable Separate Account shown in the Annuity Schedule.  Should you request a  transaction that would leave less than the Minimum Variable Sub-Account Amount or the Minimum Index  Strategy Amount shown in the Annuity Schedule, we may, to the extent permitted by law, add the balance of  your Account Value in the applicable Allocation Option to the transaction and close out your balance in that  Allocation Option.     Where permitted by law, you may authorize a third party to transfer Account Values on your behalf.  Such  authorization is subject to our acceptance and to the restrictions described in the preceding paragraph.  We may  suspend or cancel our acceptance of the authorization at any time.  We may restrict the Allocation Options  available for transfers or allocation of Purchase Payments by such third party.  If we do so, we will give the third  party 30-days advance written notice.      We will not further restrict the Allocation Options to which you are permitted to electively allocate or transfer  Account Value if we receive evidence satisfactory to us that: (a) a court of competent jurisdiction has appointed  such third party to act on your behalf; or (b) you have executed a power of attorney naming such third party to  act on your behalf for insurance transactions.  We may refuse to accept, or suspend or cancel our acceptance of,  a power of attorney at any time.     Transfers Among the Variable Sub-Accounts:  You may transfer any portion of the Account Value allocated  among the Variable Sub-Accounts at any time.  Your transfer request must be received by us in Good Order.   We may limit the number of transfers among Variable Sub-Accounts in any Annuity Year for all existing or new  Owners in order to preserve the tax status of your Annuity.      Transfers Among the Index Strategy(ies): You may transfer Account Value among the Index Strategy(ies)  according to the rules described in this paragraph.  Transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to the Index  Strategy(ies) may only occur on an Index Anniversary Date.  Transfers from the Index Strategy(ies) that have  reached the Index Strategy End Date to other Index Strategy(ies) may only occur on an Index Anniversary Date.      Transfers from the Index Strategy(ies) to the Variable Sub-Accounts are only permissible to the Holding Account  if the Index Strategy in which you are invested is no longer available.       We will notify you in writing 30-days in advance of any Index Anniversary Date to provide you with information  that will indicate the available Index Strategies into which you may reallocate your Account Value. Upon receipt  of your instructions in Good Order for reallocation of the Account Value to or from an Index Strategy, we will  process the reallocation on the Index Anniversary Date.      If we do not receive instructions from you in Good Order, the Account Value in any Index Strategy that has  reached the Index Strategy End Date will automatically be allocated to the same Index Strategy and Index  Strategy Term.  If the same Index Strategy is no longer available, or the Index Strategy Term goes beyond the  Latest Available Annuity Date, Account Value in any Index Strategy that has reached the Index Strategy End  Date will automatically be allocated to the Holding Account.     OPERATION OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT(S)    General:  The assets supporting our obligations under the Annuity may be held in various accounts, depending  on the obligation being supported.  Assets supporting our obligations during the Accumulation Period are held in  separate accounts.  In the Payout Period, assets supporting annuity payments are held in our General Account.  

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 13    Separate Accounts:  We are the owner of assets in the separate accounts.  Income, gains and losses, whether  or not realized, from assets allocated to these separate accounts, are credited to or charged against each such  separate account in accordance with the terms of the annuities supported by such assets without regard to our  general corporate operations or other income, gains or losses, or to the income, gains or losses in any other of  our separate accounts.  We will maintain assets in each separate account with a total market value at least equal  to the reserve and other liabilities we must maintain in relation to the annuity obligations supported by such  assets.      Variable Separate Account(s):  This separate account(s) consists of the Variable Sub-Accounts we make  available with this Annuity as well as multiple Variable Sub-Accounts made available in other annuities issued by  us.  The Variable Separate Account(s) was established by us pursuant to New Jersey law.  The Variable  Separate Account(s) may also hold assets of other annuities issued by us with values and benefits that vary  according to the investment performance of the Variable Sub-Accounts.  These assets may only be charged with  liabilities which arise from such annuities.       The amount of our obligations in relation to allocations to the Variable Separate Account(s) is based on the  investment performance of the Variable Sub-Accounts.  However, the guarantees provided under the Annuity are  our general corporate obligations.    The Variable Separate Account(s) is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the  Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as a unit investment trust, which is a type of investment  company.  This does not involve any supervision by the SEC of the investment policies, management or  practices of the Variable Separate Account(s).    Variable Sub-Accounts may invest in Portfolios.  We may change the investment policy of any or all Variable  Sub-Accounts, add Variable Sub-Accounts, eliminate Variable Sub-Accounts, combine Variable Sub-Accounts,  restrict or prohibit additional allocations to certain Variable Sub-Accounts, limit access to Variable Sub-Accounts,  or substitute Portfolios, subject to any required regulatory prior approval.  Please refer to the “Reserved Rights”  section for additional information.  Values and benefits based on allocations to the Variable Sub-Accounts will  vary with the investment performance of the Portfolios, as applicable.  We do not guarantee the investment  results of any Variable Sub-Account.    We may transfer assets of the Variable Separate Account(s), which we determine to be associated with the class  of contracts to which this Annuity belongs, to another Variable Separate Account(s).  If this type of transfer is  made, the term "Variable Separate Account(s)" as used in this Annuity, shall include the Variable Separate  Account(s) to which the assets were transferred.    Index Strategies Separate Account: Assets supporting the Index Strategies are held in a non-insulated and non- unitized separate account established under New Jersey law.  These assets are subject to the claims of the  creditors of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey and the benefits provided under the Index Strategies  are subject to the claims paying ability of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey.  You do not have any  interest in or claim on the assets in the Index Strategies Separate Account.  In addition, amounts allocated to the  Index Strategies do not participate in the performance of the assets held in the Separate Account.  We are not  obligated to invest according to specific guidelines or strategies except as may be required by New Jersey and  New York insurance laws.      CHARGES    General:  The charges which are, or may be, deducted from your Annuity include, but are not limited to: any  applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, the Insurance Charge, Tax Charges, and charges for any benefits  provided by rider or endorsement.    Insurance Charge: The Insurance Charge only applies to the portion of Account Value invested in the Variable  Sub-Account(s). The Insurance Charge consists of the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge and Administration  Charge and is assessed on each Valuation Day as part of the net investment factor at the daily equivalent of the  rate shown in the Annuity Schedule, certain endorsements and the Schedule Supplements of certain riders  made a part of this Annuity.    See the “Account Value” section of this Annuity for a description of how the  Insurance Charge is deducted.  For purposes of determining the level of Insurance Charge we use the sum of all  Purchase Payments prior to the application of any fees, charges or Tax Charges, less the sum of all Partial  Withdrawals and Required Minimum Distributions since the Issue Date.    

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 14    Tax Charges:  The Annuity may include a charge generally intended to approximate any applicable premium  tax, retaliatory tax and other taxes imposed on us by a state, municipality or other jurisdiction, including any  taxes that may be imposed on the Separate Account or General Account, if applicable.  In some cases the Tax  Charges may be more, and in some cases less, than the actual amount of taxes we are required to pay with  respect to a particular Annuity.  We may pay these taxes when due and deduct the Tax Charges from the  Account Value at a later date.   RIGHTS AND DESIGNATIONS    You may exercise the rights, options and privileges granted in this Annuity or permitted by us.  Your rights to  make future changes under this Annuity terminate as of the date we receive notice of death of the Decedent.  No  rights of survivorship are provided except as provided herein.    You make certain designations that apply to the Annuity.  These designations are subject to our rules as  described in this Annuity and to various regulatory or statutory requirements, Designations may not be allowed to  ensure compliance with federal tax law.  These designations may include an Owner(s), an Annuitant, a Joint  Annuitant, a Contingent Annuitant(s), a Beneficiary(ies), and a contingent Beneficiary(ies).  Certain designations  are required, as indicated below.     Owner(s):  An Owner must be named.  You may name more than one Owner; however, we may limit the  number of Owners.  If you name more than one Owner, all rights reserved to Owners are then held equally by all  Owners.  We require the consent in Good Order of all Owners and any other party with current vested rights for  any transaction for which we require the written consent of Owners.  However, if the Owners each provide us  with instructions that we find acceptable, we will permit an Owner to act independently on behalf of all the  Owners with respect to those transactions which would otherwise require the written consent of all Owners.  We  will send all communications to the address of the first named Owner.    Annuitant:  You must name an Annuitant.  You may name a Joint Annuitant or a Contingent Annuitant(s),  subject to our approval.  If an Annuitant who is not an Owner predeceases any Owner who is a natural person,  not an entity, and:    (a) a Joint Annuitant is designated and alive, then the Joint Annuitant becomes the Annuitant; or    (b) no Joint Annuitant is designated and alive, then the designated Contingent Annuitant becomes the  Annuitant; or    (c)  no Contingent Annuitant is designated or alive, then the Owner becomes the Annuitant; or    (d) no Joint Annuitant or Contingent Annuitant is designated or alive and there are multiple Owners who  are natural persons, then the oldest of such Owners becomes the Annuitant.    Beneficiary(ies):  The Death Benefit is payable to the Beneficiary(ies).  You may designate one or more  Beneficiaries and designate one or more classes of Beneficiaries: (i) primary Beneficiaries and (ii) contingent  Beneficiaries.  If you make such a designation, the proceeds are payable in equal shares to the survivors in the  appropriate Beneficiary class, unless you request otherwise in Good Order.     Unless otherwise required by law, if the primary Beneficiary(ies) predeceases the Decedent as described in the  Death Benefit section, the Death Benefit proceeds will become payable to the contingent Beneficiary(ies).  If the  Beneficiary(ies) dies after the death of the Decedent, but before the Death Benefit proceeds are paid, the Death  Benefit proceeds will be payable to the Beneficiary’s(ies’) estate(s) upon our receipt of Due Proof of Death of the  Decedent.  If no Beneficiary is alive when the Death Benefit proceeds are determined or there is no Beneficiary  designation, the proceeds are payable to any surviving Owner(s), including an Owner that is an entity.  If there is  no surviving Owner(s), the proceeds are payable to the Decendent’s estate.   

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 15    Changing Designations:  You may request to change the Owner(s), Annuitant, Joint Annuitant, Contingent  Annuitant, Beneficiary and contingent Beneficiary designations by sending us a request in Good Order.  Such  changes will be subject to our acceptance.   We will not accept changes if:     (a) a new Owner is designated subsequent to the Owner’s death  or, if there are multiple Owners, the first of  such Owners to die, unless the  Owner designation is the result of Spousal Continuation;     (b) a new Owner is designated such that the new Owner is older than the age for which we would then issue the  Annuity as of the effective date of such change, unless the change  is the result of Spousal Continuation if we  then permit Spousal Continuation at the age of the proposed Owner;     (c) anew Annuitant is designated subsequent to the Annuity Date if the annuity option selected includes a life  contingency;     (d)  a new Annuitant is designated prior to the Annuity Date when the Owner is an entity; and     (e) the request is received at our Service Office after the Annuity Date.    If there is a change of Owner(s) or Annuitant, the Latest Available Annuity Date will be based on the age of the  oldest Owner(s) or Annuitant once the change is made.  The Annuity Date must: (a) be on or after the Earliest  Available Annuity Date and on or before the new Latest Available Annuity Date; and (b) must be consistent with  applicable laws and regulations at the time.    A change of Owner or Annuitant will take effect on the date the notice of change is signed, unless otherwise  specified by you, subject to any payments made or actions taken by us prior to our receipt of the notice in Good  Order.  An Owner may seek to transfer ownership of the Annuity, subject to the interest of any assignee or  beneficiary of record. We may reject any ownership change at any time, on a non-discriminatory basis for  purposes of satisfying applicable law or regulation. We assume no responsibility for the validity or tax  consequences of any change of ownership.    Unless designated as "irrevocable", you may instruct us to change the Beneficiary. An irrevocable Beneficiary is  one whose written consent is needed before you can change the Beneficiary or exercise certain other rights. A  change of Beneficiary will take effect on the date the notice of change is signed, unless otherwise specified by  you, subject to any payments made or actions taken by us prior to our receipt of the notice in Good Order.    DISTRIBUTIONS    General:  We require you  submit a request in Good Order to our Service Office for any withdrawal or surrender.     Unless we receive instructions from you prior to a withdrawal, we will take the withdrawal first pro-rata from the  Variable Sub-Accounts in which your Account Value is allocated.  Once the Account Value in all Variable Sub- Accounts has been depleted, we will deduct any remaining withdrawals pro-rata from the Index Strategy(ies) in  which you have Account Value allocated.  We price any distribution on the Valuation Day we receive all required  materials in Good Order.     Surrender:  Full Surrender of your Annuity for its Surrender Value is permitted during the Accumulation Period.    Partial Withdrawals:  You may withdraw part of your Surrender Value.  If the amount of the Partial Withdrawal  request reduces your Account Value below the Minimum Surrender Value After a Partial Withdrawal shown in  the Annuity Schedule, we may treat your request as a request for a full surrender.  If a Partial Withdrawal occurs  during an Index Strategy Term, each Index Strategy Base impacted will be reduced proportionally by the  applicable amount that the Partial Withdrawal reduced the Index Strategy’s Interim Value immediately prior to the  Partial Withdrawal.   

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 16    Free Withdrawals:  Each Annuity Year you may withdraw a limited amount of Account Value without application  of any Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (“free withdrawal”).  The Minimum Withdrawal Amount, the Maximum  Free Withdrawal Percentage, and the Minimum Surrender Value After a Partial Withdrawal are shown in the  Annuity Schedule Page.  Free withdrawal amounts are not available if you surrender your Annuity.  If you do not  make a free withdrawal during an Annuity Year, you are not permitted to carry over the free withdrawal amount  to a subsequent Annuity Year.     The Maximum Free Withdrawal Percentage is applied to the total amount of "new" Purchase Payments to  determine the maximum free withdrawal amount.  "New" Purchase Payments are those received that are still  subject to any applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charge.  The applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charge  may apply to withdrawals exceeding the maximum free withdrawal amount.      For partial withdrawal purposes, amounts are deemed to be withdrawn from your Annuity in the following order:     (1) from any amount then available as a free withdrawal; then from     (2) "old" Purchase Payments not previously withdrawn (those Purchase Payments to which  any  applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charges no longer apply prior to the withdrawal); then  from     (3) "new" Purchase Payments not previously withdrawn (if there are multiple "new" Purchase  Payments, the one received earliest is withdrawn first, then the one received next earliest, and  so forth); then from     (4) other Surrender Value.    Required Minimum Distributions:  If your Annuity is being used for certain qualified purposes under the  Internal Revenue Code, you may be required to begin receiving minimum distributions on a periodic basis from  your Annuity.  The total amount of the minimum distributions required under the Code may depend on other  annuities, savings or investments you have.  We will calculate a required minimum distribution amount each  year, based solely on the value of this Annuity.  The amount we calculate (“Required Minimum Distribution”)  will  not be based on any other annuities, savings or investments.  We will notify you of the Required Minimum  Distribution amount each year.  If you choose to have the Required Minimum Distribution paid out from this  Annuity, you must do so through a program we make available.    If you choose to take your Required Minimum Distribution from this Annuity,  unless we receive other instructions  from you, we will take each Required Minimum Distribution first pro-rata from the Variable Sub-Accounts in which  your Account Value is allocated.  Once the Account Value in all Variable Sub-Accounts has been depleted, we  will deduct any remaining Required Minimum Distribution pro-rata from the Index Strategy(ies) in which you have  Account Value allocated.  If the amount of the Required Minimum Distribution reduces your Account Value below  the Minimum Surrender Value After a Partial Withdrawal, we may treat the distribution as a full surrender of the  Annuity.  After the Annuity Date, we will view the annuity payments as your Required Minimum Distributions with  respect to the Annuity.  If a Required Minimum Distribution occurs during an Index Strategy Term, each Index  Strategy Base impacted will be reduced proportionally by the applicable amount that the Required Minimum  Distribution reduced the Index Strategy’s Interim Value immediately prior to the Required Minimum Distribution.    No Contingent Deferred Sales Charge is assessed against amounts withdrawn as Required Minimum  Distributions over your life or life expectancy, but only if we calculate the Required Minimum Distribution amount  for this Annuity and you are participating in a systematic withdrawal program established for their payment. Any  applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charge may apply to amounts withdrawn to meet minimum distributions in  relation to other annuities, savings and investments you may have or to any minimum distributions that are  based on this Annuity but which are not calculated by us.    Amounts withdrawn as Required Minimum Distributions are considered to come first from the amounts available  as a free withdrawal.  For purposes of calculating any applicable Contingent Deferred Sales Charge, Required  Minimum Distributions meeting the requirements above greater than the free withdrawal amount are not deemed  to be a withdrawal of Purchase Payments.  

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 17    DEATH BENEFIT    Death Benefit: The amount of the Death Benefit is equal to the Account Value on the date we receive Due Proof of  Death of the Decedent.      A Death Benefit is payable only if your Account Value at the time of the Decedent’s death is greater than zero.      If the Owner is a natural person, not an entity, the Owner is the Decedent upon his or her death.  If there is more  than one Owner, each being a natural person, the first of such Owners to die is the Decedent.     If the Owner is an entity, and there is no Contingent Annuitant, then the Annuitant is the Decedent and the Death  Benefit is payable upon the Annuitant’s death or the first Annuitant to die if there are Joint Annuitants.      If the Owner is an entity, and there is a Contingent Annuitant, no Death Benefit is payable upon the death of the  Annuitant. The Contingent Annuitant may become the Annuitant.      The Death Benefit is determined as of the date we receive Due Proof of Death of the Decedent.  Unless Spousal  Continuation occurs on the date we receive Due Proof of Death, we transfer all amounts due each Beneficiary from  whom we do not have payment instructions to the Holding Account until we receive such instructions in Good  Order.     For contracts not held for qualified purposes, in the event of death before the Annuity Date, the Death Benefit  must be distributed: (a) within five years of the date of death of the Decedent; or (b) as to each Beneficiary, over  a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary or over the life of the Beneficiary, with such  distributions commencing over the applicable period within one year of the date of death.  Except as noted below  in the “Spousal Continuation” section, we assume that the Death Benefit is to be paid out under (a), above,  unless we receive a different election.    The Owner(s) may elect the method of payment to each Beneficiary, subject to our then current rules, prior to the  date of death of the Decedent.  When no such election is made as to a specific Beneficiary, such Beneficiary must  elect the method of payment within 60 days of the date we receive all required documentation in Good Order in  order to pay the Death Benefit to that Beneficiary.  If no election is made within 60 days, the default will be  distribution within five years of the date of death of the Decedent as noted in (a) above.     The Owner may elect to have any amount of the proceeds due to a Beneficiary applied under any of the Annuity  Payout Options described in the “Annuity Payment Options” section, or any other option we then make available.   If you make such an election, a Beneficiary may not alter such an election.  However, if you have not previously  made such an election, a Beneficiary may make such an election as to the proceeds due that Beneficiary.  The  Beneficiary will be the “measuring life” for determining the amount of any annuity payments dependent on the  continuation of life.  We may require evidence satisfactory to us of the age of the measuring life prior to  commencement of any annuity payments.    In the event of death on or after the Annuity Date, we distribute any payments due subsequent to an Owner’s or  Annuitant’s death at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect as of the date of such Owner’s  or Annuitant’s death.    Generally, payouts of 10 year or more apply to eligible designated beneficiaries on qualified contracts.    Spousal Continuation:  We allow the spouse to continue the Annuity subsequent to a Decedent’s death,  subject to our receipt of Due Proof of Death.  The situations where the Annuity may continue subsequent to a  death include the following scenarios on the date we receive Due Proof of Death of the Decedent:    (a) there is only one Owner of the Annuity and there is only one Beneficiary who is the Owner’s spouse, or    (b) there are two Owners who are married to each other on the date of death of the Decedent, and the  surviving Owner is the sole primary Beneficiary under the Annuity, or  

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 18    (c) there are two Owners who are married to each other on the date of death of the Decedent, and no  Beneficiary designation has been elected, in which case the surviving spouse Owner is the sole  primary Beneficiary pursuant to the Beneficary(ies) section of this Annuity.    Spousal Continuation may occur only once.  Upon continuation of the Annuity by the Spouse, we will waive any  Contingent Deferred Sales Charge applicable to Purchase Payments made before Spousal Continuation.      Common Disaster:  If an Owner and a Beneficiary die in a common disaster, it must be proved to our  satisfaction that the Owner died first and the Beneficiary survived the Owner(s) (or Annuitant if entity owned) by  at least 30 days.  In this situation, the Death Benefit proceeds will be payable to the Beneficiary’s(ies’) estate(s)  upon our receipt of Due Proof of Death of the Decedent.  When there is insufficient evidence to determine the  order of death, then, unless prohibited by law, we will deem the Owner to have survived the Beneficiary.    If: (a) the Owner is an entity; (b) no Contingent Annuitant has been designated, we will deem the Annuitant to be  the last survivor and pay the proceeds to any remaining Beneficiary, or if none, to any remaining contingent  Beneficiary, or if none, to the Owner.      ANNUITY PAYOUT OPTIONS    General:  This Annuity provides for payments under one of the Annuity Options described below. Any other  available Annuity Options, in addition to those shown, may be selected with our consent. Certain Annuity Options  may not be available, depending on the age of the Annuitant and any remaining Contingent Deferred Sales  Charge if applicable.  You will be the payee of the payments under the Annuity Option selected, unless we  receive other instructions in Good Order.  We may limit the length of any Annuity Option including, but not limited  to, any default option and any period certain, to conform with applicable tax rules.    Annuity payments can be guaranteed for a period certain and life, as described below. You may choose an  Annuity Date, an Annuity Option and the frequency of annuity payments. Your choice of Annuity Date and  Annuity Option may be limitedin order to comply with federal tax requirements that apply to your Annuity.    The Earliest Available Annuity Date and Latest Available Annuity Date as of the Issue Date are shown in the  Annuity Schedule. You may change your choices at any time up to thirty days before any Annuity  Date you selected. We must receive your request in Good Order.    On the Annuity Date we apply the Account Value, less any applicable Tax Charges, to the Annuity Option you  select. If you have not selected an Annuity Option, the default Annuity Option will be Option 1 with a certain  period of 120 months (but not to exceed the life expectancy of the Annuitant at the time the Annuity Option  becomes effective, as computed under applicable IRS tables).    If, on the Annuity Date, the amount that would otherwise be applied to the Annuity Option is less than the  Minimum Surrender Value at Annuitization on the Annuity Date, or the initial annuity payment is less than the  Minimum Annuity Payment, we may pay you the Account Value in one lump sum in full satisfaction of our  obligations under this Annuity. The Minimum Surrender Value at Annuitization and the Minimum Annuity  Payment are shown in the Annuity Schedule.    Annuity Options:  You may elect one of the Annuity Options listed below or any other Annuity Option we may  make available. Annuity payments available on the Annuity Date will not be less than those provided by the  application of an equivalent amount to the purchase of any single premium immediate annuity contract offered by  us on the Annuity Date to the same class of Annuitants. The basis of computation for each Annuity Option is  shown in the Annuity Schedule.     Option 1: Payments for Life with a Period Certain: We will pay equal periodic payments for the longer  of the Annuitant’s remaining lifetime or a fixed period of time (the “Period Certain”). If this Annuity has  Joint Annuitants, annuity payments will be based on the remaining lifetime of one Annuitant designated  by the Owner. If the Annuitant dies after all annuity payments have been made for the Period Certain,  annuity payments shall end with the last scheduled annuity payment due before the Annuitant’s death.  If  you have not selected an Annuity Option this will be the default Annuity Option as outlined above.  

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 19    Option 2: Joint and Last Survivor: We will pay equal periodic payments for the joint remaining  lifetimes of Joint Annuitants. Annuity payments end with the last scheduled annuity payment due before  the last surviving Annuitant’s death. We will not make any annuity payments to the Beneficiary under this  option.    We may require evidence satisfactory to us of the age of the Annuitant upon whose life payment amounts are  calculated prior to commencement of any annuity payments.     Death During the Payout Period:  In the Payout Period, subsequent to the death of the Annuitant, we continue  to pay any Period Certain payments (payments not contingent on the continuance of any life) to the Owner (or  named payee, if requested by the Owner) or, if applicable, any named Beneficiary.  If no Beneficiary has been  named, any remaining Period Certain payments will be paid to the Decedent’s estate.  Note that the Beneficiary  designation during the Accumulation Period is applicable to the Payout Period unless you have indicated  otherwise.    Recovery of Excess Annuity Payments:  Other than “Period Certain” payments, we may recover any annuity  payments we have made after the Annuitant’s death under any annuity option.    Annuity Payments: Annuity payments under Option 1 and 2 above do not fluctuate.  The Account Value on the  Annuity Date, less any applicable Tax Charges, is used to determine the annuity payments. The payment amount  will be determined based on the annuity rates for the annuity option and the frequency of payment selected.  The  annuity rates per $1,000 of value for Monthly Annuity Payments under Options 1 (assuming 120 Months Period  Certain) and Option 2 above will not be less than those shown in the Annuity Tables in the Annuity Schedule.     GENERAL PROVISIONS    Claims of Creditors:  To the extent permitted by law, no payment or value under this Annuity is subject to the claims  of your creditors or those of any other Owner, any Annuitant, or any Beneficiary.    Deferral of Transactions: We may defer payment of any Partial Withdrawal or Surrender of the Annuity for a  period not to exceed  6 months. If we defer such payment for more than ten days, we will pay interest as  required by applicable New York law.     Any transfer or reallocation from any Variable Sub-Account will be executed in a timely manner, in no event will  the transfer or reallocation exceed seven calendar days from the date the transaction is requested.     In addition to the allocation requirements outlined in this Annuity,   all transactions into, out of, or based on any  Allocation Option may be postponed whenever: (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than  customary holidays or weekends) or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as determined by the  SEC; (2) the SEC permits postponement and so orders; or (3) the SEC determines that an emergency exists  making valuation or disposal of securities not reasonably practical.    Entire Contract:  This Annuity, including the Annuity Schedule, any riders, endorsements, schedule  supplements, and amendments that are made part of this Annuity, are the entire contract.  This Annuity may be  changed or modified only in a writing signed by our President, a Vice President, or Secretary.  We are not bound  by any promises or representations made by, or to, any other person.     Evidence of Survival:  Before we make a payment, we have the right to require proof of continued life and any  other documentation we need to make a payment.  We can require this proof for any person whose life or death  determines whether or to whom we must make the payment.    Facility of Payment:  Subject to applicable law, we may, in settlement of full liability, make payments to a guardian,  conservator or other legal representative if a payee is legally incompetent.     Incontestability:  We will not contest this Annuity.  Any statements made in applying for the Annuity are  considered representations, not warranties.    Minimum Benefits: The benefits provided by this Annuity are not less than the minimum benefits required by  applicable law in New York where this Annuity is delivered. Such benefits may be modified by Partial  Withdrawals or Surrender, as described in the applicable sections of this Annuity. 

 

  P-RILA-B-IND(7/22)-NY 20    Misstatement of Age or Sex:  If there has been a misstatement of the age and/or sex of any person upon  whose life any amounts we are obligated to determine in order to make any payment, including charges and  annuity payments, the Death Benefit or any increase to Account Value under the “Spousal Continuation” section,  we will adjust such amounts to conform to that for the correct age and/or sex.  As to annuity payments: (a) any  underpayments by us will be remedied on the next payment following correction with interest at a rate as  indicated in the Annuity Schedule and (b) any overpayments by us will be charged against future amounts  payable by us under your Annuity.    Nonparticipation:  The Annuity does not share in our profits or surplus earnings.    Participation and Termination of Certain Programs We May Offer:  To elect to participate in, or to terminate  participation in, any program we may offer, we must receive your request in Good Order at our Service Office.    Reports to You:  We will provide you with reports at least once annually.  Each report will show: beginning and  ending dates of the current report period; Account Value on both of these dates; Partial Withdrawals or Surrender  during the current report period; Purchase Payments during the current report period; and the Surrender Value and  Death Benefit amounts at the end of the current report period. You may request additional reports; we may charge  up to $50 for each such additional report.    Reserved Rights:  In addition to rights specifically reserved elsewhere in this Annuity, we reserve the right to  perform any or all of the following: (a) combine a Variable Sub-Account with other Variable Sub-Accounts; (b)  combine the Variable Separate Account(s) shown in the Annuity Schedule with other "unitized" separate accounts;  (c) combine the Index Strategies Separate Account with other “non-unitized,” “non-insulated” separate accounts; (d)  deregister the Variable Separate Account(s) shown in the Annuity Schedule under the Investment Company Act of  1940; (e) operate the Variable Separate Account(s) shown in the Annuity Schedule as a management investment  company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or in any other form permitted by law; (f) make changes  required by any change in the federal securities laws, including, but not limited to, the Securities Act of 1933, the  Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any changes to the Securities and  Exchange Commission’s interpretation thereof; (g) make changes that are necessary to maintain the tax status of  your Annuity, any rider, amendment or endorsement attached hereto or any charge or distribution from your Annuity  under the Internal Revenue Code; (h) make any changes required by Federal or New York laws with respect to  annuity contracts; and (i) to the extent dictated by any Portfolio, impose a redemption fee or restrict transactions  within any Variable Sub-Account. We reserve the right to modify this Annuity to conform to applicable New York or  federal law without receiving your prior consent, unless such change diminishes your overall rights and/or benefits  under the previously issued contract.     We may eliminate Variable Sub-Accounts, restrict or prohibit additional allocations to certain Variable Sub- Accounts, or substitute one or more new Portfolios for the one in which a Variable Sub-Account is invested in  which case any reference to pro-rata allocations would include only those Variable Sub-Accounts that do not  restrict or prohibit additional allocations.  Substitutions may be necessary if we believe a Portfolio no longer suits  the purpose of the Annuity.  This may happen due to a change in laws or regulations, or a change in the  investment objectives or restrictions of a Portfolio, or because the Portfolio is no longer available for investment,  or for any other reason.  We would obtain the approval of the New York Department of Financial Services, and  any required regulatory prior approval.   If an Index described in any Index Strategy Endorsement made a part of  your Annuity is no longer available to us, or if the manner by which the Index is determined substantially  changes, we will substitute a comparable Index. We would obtain the approval of the New York Department of  Financial Services, and any required regulatory prior approval. We will notify you and any assignee of the  substitution.    Riders or Endorsements: One or more riders or endorsements may be attached and made part of your Annuity  as of the Issue Date or may be added later if we allow such later election at the time you so request.  Such riders  or endorsements may contain additional or different definitions and other provisions which may amend or replace  the definitions and other provisions in your Annuity including, but not limited to, Allocation Options, surrenders,  withdrawals, transfers, Spousal Continuation, and the Death Benefit.  Charges may also apply to any benefit  provided by rider or endorsement.  Please refer to any applicable rider, endorsement and their respective  schedule supplements for details regarding the impact on any provisions in this Annuity.  Riders or  endorsements pertaining to a benefit program, Allocation Option, or special program available as of the Issue  Date of this Annuity may not be available in the future.    Tax Reporting and Withholding:  We comply with all applicable federal and New York  tax reporting and  withholding laws and regulations with respect to this Annuity.

Transfers, Assignments or Pledges:  Generally, your rights in this Annuity may be transferred, assigned or  pledged for loans.  However, these rights may be limited to   maintain the Annuity’s  tax qualification. You may  assign this Annuity before the Annuity Date.  No assignment of this Annuity shall be binding on us unless a  request to assign this Annuity has been received in our Service Office in Good Order. Any assignment will be  subject to any prior assignment of record. We will not consent if the assignment or other transfer would violate or  result in noncompliance with any applicable New York state or federal law or regulation.  We will not assume any  responsibility for the validity, sufficiency or tax consequences of an assignment. However, we may require proof  of the nature and extent of the assignee's interest before we make a payment to the assignee. Unless otherwise  specified by the Owner in the request, the assignment shall take effect on the date the notice of assignment is  signed by the Owner, subject to any payments made or actions taken by us prior to recording of the request at  the Service Office.
