	Re:	Amendment to Offer Letter 

 Dear Thorsten: 
 Effective as of May 19, 2008, Tercica agrees to amend that certain Offer Letter, dated as of December 3, 2004, with respect to the following paragraph and its
terms: 
 “If the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason (as defined in
Exhibit B) in either case within 12 months after a Change of Control, then, subject to your entering into and not revoking the Company’s standard form of release of claims in favor of the Company, you will receive a severance payment
equal to six (6) months of your base salary in effect at the time of termination, the vesting for 50% of the unvested stock option shares will be accelerated so as to vest as of the date of termination, and you will have ninety (90) days
to exercise all those stock option shares that have vested as of the date of termination.” 
 The paragraph above shall be terminated and superseded in
its entirety by the following paragraphs and their terms: 
 “If the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate
your employment for Good Reason (as defined in Exhibit B) in either case within 12 months after a Change of Control, then, subject to your entering into and not revoking the Company’s standard form of release of claims in favor of the
Company, you will receive a severance payment equal to one year of your base salary in effect at the time of termination, the vesting for 100% of the unvested stock option shares will be accelerated so as to vest as of the date of termination, and
you will have ninety (90) days to exercise all those stock option shares that have vested as of the date of termination. 
  

 1. 

 All severance provisions provided in this offer letter are subject to you and the Company entering into a
final separation agreement in the form attached to this offer letter as Exhibit D, and we agree to the terms of Exhibit D are the final terms that will govern your termination of employment with the Company in the event a severance
will be paid to you.”

 EXHIBIT D 
 SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE 
 RECITALS 
 This Separation Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is made by and between
                     (“Employee”) and
                     (“Company”) (jointly referred to as the “Parties”): 
 WHEREAS, Employee was employed by the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Company and Employee entered into an At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment and Arbitration Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, Employee’s employment terminated on
                     (the “Termination Date”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and Employee have entered into a Stock Option Agreement granting Employee the option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s
2004 Stock Option Plan and the Stock Option Agreement (the “Stock Option Agreements”); and WHEREAS, the Parties wish to resolve any and all disputes, claims, complaints, grievances, charges, actions, petitions and demands that the Employee
may have against the Company, including, but not limited to, any and all claims arising or in any way related to Employee’s employment with or separation from the Company; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises made herein, the
Parties hereby agree as follows: 
 COVENANTS 
 1. Consideration. The Company agrees to pay Employee the lump sum equivalent of [six months/one year — determined by the circumstances of the termination as set forth in the offer letter of
his/her base salary], less applicable withholding, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. This payment will be sent to Employee within five (5) business days after the Effective Date of this Agreement.

 2. Stock. The Parties agree that for purposes of determining the number of shares of the Company’s common stock which Employee
is entitled to purchase from the Company, pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options, the Employee will be considered to have vested [up to the Termination Date or fully-vested as per full acceleration — determined by the
circumstances of the termination as set forth in the offer letter.] Employee acknowledges that as of the Termination Date, he will have vested in
                     options and no more. The exercise of any stock options shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the
Stock Option Agreements. 
  

 3. 

 3. Benefits. Employee’s health insurance benefits will cease on
                    ; provided however, subject to Employee’s right to continue his/her health, dental and vision insurance under
COBRA, Company shall pay Employee’s and Employee’s family’s COBRA health, dental and vision insurance premiums for a period of the shorter of (a) [six months or one year — determined by the circumstances of
the termination as set forth in the offer letter] or (b) such time as Employee’s subsequent employer pays for Employee’s and Employee’s family’s health, dental and vision insurance premiums.
Employee’s participation in all other benefits and incidents of employment ceased on the Termination Date. Employee ceased accruing employee benefits, including, but not limited to, vacation time and paid time off, as of the
Termination Date. 
 4. Confidential Information. Employee shall continue to maintain the confidentiality of all
confidential and proprietary information of the Company and shall continue to comply with the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement between Employee and the Company. Employee shall return all of the Company’s
property and confidential and proprietary information in his/her possession to the Company. By signing this Agreement, Employee represents and declares under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that
he/she has returned all Company property. 
 5. Payment of Salary. Employee acknowledges and represents that the Company has paid
all salary, wages, bonuses, accrued vacation, commissions and any and all other benefits due to Employee. 
 6. Release of
Claims. Employee agrees that the foregoing consideration represents settlement in full of all outstanding obligations owed to Employee by the Company and its officers, managers, supervisors, agents and employees. Employee, on
his/her own behalf, and on behalf of his/her respective heirs, family members, executors, agents, and assigns, hereby fully and forever releases the Company and its officers, directors, employees, agents, investors, shareholders,
administrators, affiliates, divisions, subsidiaries, predecessor and successor corporations, and assigns (“the Releasees”), from, and agree not to sue concerning, any claim, duty, obligation or cause of action relating
to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Employee may possess arising from any omissions, acts or facts that have occurred up until and including the Effective Date of this
Agreement including, without limitation:

employment relationship with the Company and the termination of that relationship; 
 (b) any and all claims relating to,

conversion; 
 (d) any and all claims for violation of any federal, state or municipal statute, including, but not
limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Employee Retirement

 7. Acknowledgement of Waiver of Claims
Under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that he/she is waiving and releasing any rights he/she may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) and that this waiver and release is knowing and
voluntary. Employee and the Company agree that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under ADEA after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given
for this waiver and release Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further acknowledges that he/she has been advised by this writing that: 
 (a) He/she should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; 
 (b) He/she has up to twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement; 
 (c) He/she has seven (7) days following his/her execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement; 
  

 5. 

 (d) this Agreement shall not be effective until the revocation period has expired;
and 
 (e) nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith
of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law. 
 8. Civil Code Section 1542. Employee represents that he/she is not aware of any claim by him/her other than the claims that are
released by this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that he/she has had the opportunity to be advised by legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

 A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH
IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. Employee; being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights he/she may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law
principles of similar effect. 
 9. No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that he/she has no lawsuits, claims, or
actions pending in his/her name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any other person or entity referred to herein. Employee also represents that he/she does not intend to bring any claims on his/her own
behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any other person or entity referred to herein. 
 10.
Application for Employment. Employee understands and agrees that, as a condition of this Agreement, he/she shall not be entitled to any employment within the Company, its subsidiaries and he/she hereby waives any right, or alleged right,
of employment or re-employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. 
 11. Confidentiality. The Parties acknowledge that
Employee’s agreement to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential was a material factor on which all parties relied in entering into this Agreement. Employee hereto agrees to use his/her best efforts
to maintain in confidence the existence of this Agreement, the contents and terms of this Agreement, and the consideration for this Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Settlement Information”). Employee
agrees to take every reasonable precaution to prevent disclosure of any Settlement Information to third parties, and agrees that there will be no publicity, directly or indirectly, concerning any Settlement Information. Employee
agrees to take every precaution to disclose Settlement Information only to those attorneys, accountants, governmental entities, and family members who have a reasonable need to know of such Settlement Information. 
 12. No Cooperation. Employee agrees he/she will not act in any manner that might damage the business of the Company. Employee agrees that he
will not encourage, counsel or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the
Releasees, unless under a subpoena or other court order to do so. Employee shall inform the Company in writing within three (3) days of receiving any such subpoena or other court order. 
  

 6. 

 13. Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any defamation, libel or slander
of the Releasees, and any tortious interference with the contracts, relationships and prospective economic advantage of the Releasees. Employee agrees that he/she shall direct all inquiries by potential future employers to Company’s
Human Resources department. 
 14. Non-Solicitation. Employee agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months immediately
following the Effective Date of this Agreement, Employee shall not either directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the Company’s employees or consultants to leave their employment, or attempt to do so,
either for him/herself or any other person or entity. 
 15. Breach. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any breach of any
provision of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Company immediately to recover and/or cease the severance benefits provided to Employee under this Agreement.
Employee shall also be responsible to the Company for all costs, attorneys’ fees and any and all damages incurred by the Company (a) enforcing the obligation, including the bringing of any suit to recover the
monetary consideration, and (b) defending against a claim or suit brought or pursued by Employee in violation of this Agreement. 
 16. No Admission of Liability. The Parties understand and acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of actual or potential disputed claims. No action taken by the Parties hereto, or either of
them, either previously or in connection With this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be: 
 (a) an admission of the
truth or falsity of any claims made or any potential claims; or 
 (b) an acknowledgment or admission by either party of
any fault or liability whatsoever to the other party or to any third party. 
 17. Costs. The Parties shall each bear their own
costs, expert fees, attorneys’ fees and other fees incurred in connection with this Agreement, except as provided herein. 
 18. Tax Consequences. [Use only if payment is 1099’d, vesting is accelerated, or the exercise period will be extended.] The Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the tax
consequences of the payment of any sums to Employee under the terms of this Agreement. Employee agrees and understands that he is responsible for payment, if any, of local, state and/or federal taxes on the sums
paid hereunder by the Company and any penalties or assessments thereon. Employee further agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claims, demands, deficiencies, penalties, assessments, executions, judgments, or
recoveries by any government agency against the Company for any amounts claimed due on account of Employee’s failure to pay federal or state taxes or damages sustained by the Company by reason of any such claims,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees. 
  

 7. 

 19. Arbitration. The Parties agree that any and all disputes arising out of the terms of this
Agreement, their interpretation, and any of the matters herein released, shall be subject to binding arbitration in San Francisco County before the American Arbitration Association under its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment
Disputes, supplemented by the California Code of Civil Procedure. The Parties agree that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the
arbitration award. The Parties agree that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. The Parties hereby agree to waive their right to have any dispute between them resolved in
a court of law by a judge or jury. This paragraph will not prevent either party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy) from any court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the subject matter of their
dispute relating to Employee’s obligations under this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 20. Authority. The
Company represents and warrants that the undersigned has the authority to act on behalf of the Company and to bind the Company and all who may claim through it to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Employee
represents and warrants that he/she has the capacity to act on his/her own behalf and on behalf of all who might claim through him/her to bind them to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each party warrants and
represents that there are no liens or claims of lien or assignments in law or equity or otherwise of or against any of the claims or causes of action released herein. 
 21. No Representations. Each party represents that it has had the opportunity to consult with an attorney, and has carefully read and
understands the scope and effect of the provisions of this Agreement. In entering into this Agreement, neither party has relied upon any representations or statements made by the other party hereto which are not specifically set
forth in this Agreement. 
 22. Severability. In the event that any provision, or any portion thereof, becomes or is declared by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision or portion of said provision. 
 23. Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Employee concerning the subject
matter of this Agreement and Employee’s relationship with the Company, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and
Employee’s relationship with the Company, with the exception of the Stock Option Agreement, the Stock Plan and the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 24. No Waiver. The failure of the Company to insist upon the performance of any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement, or the failure to prosecute any breach of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
shall not be construed thereafter as a waiver of any such terms or conditions. This entire Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if no such forbearance or failure of performance had occurred. 
  

 8. 

 25. No Oral Modification. This Agreement may only be amended in a writing signed by Employee and
the Chief Executive Officer or General Counsel of the Company. 
 26. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted,
governed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to choice-of-law provisions. 
 27.
Effective Date. This Agreement is effective on the eighth day after it has been signed by employee (the “Effective Date”). 
 28. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each counterpart shall have the same force and effect as an original and shall constitute an effective, binding agreement on the part of each of the
undersigned. 
 29. Voluntary Execution of Agreement. This Agreement is executed voluntarily and without any duress or undue
influence on the part or behalf of the Parties hereto, with the full intent of releasing all claims. The Parties acknowledge that: 
 (a) They have read this Agreement; 
 (b) They have been represented in the preparation, negotiation, and execution
of this Agreement by legal counsel of their own choice or that they have voluntarily declined to seek such counsel;

provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, supplemental indenture hereto or Officer’s Certificate referred to above, and, unless otherwise provided, a Series may be reopened, without the consent of the Holders, for issuances of additional
Notes of such Series. 
 Section 2.03 Execution and Authentication. 
 One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time such Note is authenticated, such Note shall
nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be
conclusive evidence that the Note, as applicable, has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall, upon a written order of
the Company signed by one Officer (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue in accordance with this Indenture. The Notes shall be dated their date of authentication. 
  

 8 

 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes. An
authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with
Holders or an Affiliate of the Company. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company
may deliver Notes of any Series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order will authenticate and
deliver such Notes. In authenticating such Notes, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Notes, the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) will be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating: 
 (a) that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (b) that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (c) that such Notes, when 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, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other
laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and by general principles of equity; and 
 (d) that all applicable laws and
requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of such Notes have been complied with. 
 Section 2.04 Registrar and Paying
Agent. 
 The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each Series of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The
Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents or change the office of such Registrar or Paying Agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes
any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder; however, the Company shall maintain a Paying Agent in each place of payment for the Notes of each Series. The Company shall notify the
Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may
act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as
Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Section 2.05 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
 The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of
Holders of any Series of Notes, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal or interest on the Series of Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such
default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. All payments to a Paying Agent or any Notes which
remain unclaimed for a period of two years after such payment was due shall be repaid to the Company. Thereafter, the Holder may look only to the Company for repayment. Upon payment over to the Trustee, or to the Company, as the case may be, the
Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of any
Series of Notes all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
  

 9 

 Section 2.06 Holder Lists. 
 The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each Series of Notes and shall otherwise comply with TIA
Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, at least seven Business Days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and
as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders of each Series of Notes and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA Section 312(a). 
 Section 2.07 Transfer and Exchange. 
 Notes may be transferred or exchanged at the office of the
Registrar or co-registrar designated by the Company. Where Notes of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of the same Series, the
Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request. No service charge
shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection
therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06 or 9.05). 
 Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Notes of any Series for the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a
notice of redemption of Notes of that Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange Notes of any Series selected, called or being called for
redemption as a whole or a portion thereof, except the unredeemed portion of Notes being redeemed in part. 
 Each Holder of a Security
agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or
state securities law. 
 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 Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary Participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global 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. 
  

 10 

 Section 2.08 Replacement Notes. 
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, or if the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee,
upon receipt of an Authentication Order together with such indemnity or security sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may
suffer if a Note is replaced, shall authenticate a replacement Note of the same Series if the Trustee’s requirements are met. The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note of any Series is an additional obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally
and proportionately with all other Notes of that Series duly issued hereunder. 
 Section 2.09 Outstanding Notes. 
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.10 hereof, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. 
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof,
it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date
such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 
 Section 2.10 Treasury Notes. 
 In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes of a Series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned
by the Company, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes of a Series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
 Section 2.11 Temporary Notes. 
 Until certificates
representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have
variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for
temporary Notes. 
 Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

 Section 2.12 Cancellation. 
 The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.
The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall return such canceled Notes to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes
that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.13 Defaulted Interest. 
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the
extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders of the Series on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall notify the
Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such
special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at
the expense of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 Section 2.14 Global Notes. 
 (a) Terms of Notes. A Board Resolution, a supplemental indenture
hereto, or an Officer’s Certificate shall establish whether the Notes of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes and shall name the Depositary for such Global Note or Notes. Except as provided
herein, each Global Note shall be (i) registered in the name of the Depositary, (ii) deposited with the Depositary, and (iii) bear the legend indicated in Section 2.14(c). 
 (b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.07 of the Indenture and in addition thereto,

unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary
registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that such Global Note shall be so exchangeable or
(iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes represented by such Global Note shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Note that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in
such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note with like tenor and terms. 
 Except as provided in this Section 2.14(b), a Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Note to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such
Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary, or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.

 (c) Legend. Any Global Note issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following
form:

except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a
successor Depositary.” 
 (d) Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize
participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture. 
 (e) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.02, payment of
the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Note shall be made to the Holder thereof. Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security at the close of business on the regular record date for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 2.13) any interest
on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security shall be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustees nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (f) Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section 2.14(e), the Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a person
as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Notes of such Series represented by a Global Note as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depositary with respect to such Global Note, for purposes of obtaining any consents,
declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 2.15 CUSIP Number. 
 The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices
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 Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or the omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any
change in the CUSIP numbers. 
 ARTICLE 3 
 REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT

 The Company may, with respect to any Series of Notes, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Series of Notes or may covenant to redeem and pay the Series of Notes or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity
thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for in such Notes. If a Series of Notes is redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Series of Notes pursuant to the terms of
such Notes, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of Series of Notes to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice at least 45 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date (or such
shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Trustee). 
  

 13 

 Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 
 If less than all of the Notes of a Series are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes of a
Series to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of the Notes (a) in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, (b) if the Notes are not so listed, on a
pro rata basis, by lot or in accordance with any other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate. In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided
herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase. The Trustee may select for redemption or repurchase portions of the principal of
Notes of the Series that have denominations larger than $1,000. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes of a Series and portions of them selected shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000, or with
respect to Notes of any Series issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.02(j), the minimum principal denomination for each Series and integral multiples thereof. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
Indenture that apply to Notes of a Series called for redemption or repurchase also apply to portions of Notes of a Series called for redemption or repurchase. 
 Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 
 Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, a supplemental
indenture hereto or an Officer’s Certificate, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be
redeemed at its registered address. 
 The notice shall identify the Notes of the Series to be redeemed and shall state: 
 (1) the redemption date; 
 (2) the redemption price; 
 (3) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
 (4) that Notes of the Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 

(5) that interest on Notes of the Series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (6) the CUSIP number, if any; and 
 (7) any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series of the Notes or the Notes of a Series being redeemed. 
  

 14 

 At the Company’s request, and upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate complying with
Section 11.04 hereof, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice
of Redemption. 
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become
irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 
 Section 3.05 Deposit of
Redemption Price. 
 One Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent
money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the
Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
 If the
Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date
but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption shall not
be so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on
any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
 Section 3.06 Notes
Redeemed in Part. 
 Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon the Company’s written
request, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder, at the expense of the Company, a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. 
 No Notes of $1,000 or less can be redeemed in part. 
 ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS

Payment of Principal and Interest. 
 The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each Series of Notes that it
will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in such Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Series of Notes will be considered paid on the date due

 Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each Series of Notes that it will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of
New York, an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee for such Notes or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar for such Notes or co-registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of such Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee for such Notes of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or
agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office
of the Trustee. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where a Series of Notes may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an
office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee for such Series of Notes of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any
such other office or agency. 
 With respect to each Series of Notes, the Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
as one such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 2.04. 
 Section 4.03 Reports. 
 The Company will at all times comply with TIA § 314(a). Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational
purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants
hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 
 Section 4.04 Compliance Certificate.

 (a) The Company and each guarantor of any Series of Notes (to the extent that such guarantor is so required under the TIA) shall deliver
to the Trustee with respect to such Series, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officer’s Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made
under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate,
that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and
conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a
description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 (b) The Company shall, so long as
any of Series of Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee with respect to such Series, as soon as possible, but in no event later than five days after any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate
specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  

 16 

 Section 4.05 Taxes. 
 The Company will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate
proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 4.06 Stay,
Extension and Usury Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not, and each guarantor of
such Notes will not, at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or
the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each of such guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so), as applicable, hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to
any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee for such Notes, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted. 
 Section 4.07 Corporate Existence. 
 Subject to
Articles 5 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect: 
 (a) its
corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary; and

 (b) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if an Officer shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the
conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 SUCCESSORS 
 Section 5.01 Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets. 
 The Company shall not, directly or
indirectly: (a) consolidate or merge with or into another Person; or (b) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in
one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless: 
 (1) either: 
 (A) the Company is the surviving corporation; or 
  

 17 

 (B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the

of the United States or the District of Columbia; 
 (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger

satisfactory to the Trustee; 
 (3) immediately after such transaction and treating the Company’s obligations in
connection with or as a result of such transaction as having been incurred as of the time of such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (4) the Company or the surviving entity shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such
consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture complies with the applicable provisions of this

assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the
provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such
successor Person had been named as the Company herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Company shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on any Series of Notes except in the case of a sale of all
of the Company’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof. 
  

 18 

 ARTICLE 6 
 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01 Events of Default. 
 “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to Notes of any Series, means any one of the following events, unless in the establishing
Board Resolution, supplemental indenture or Officer’s Certificate, it is provided that such Series shall not have the benefit of said Event of Default: 
 (a) default in the payment of any interest on any Note of that Series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 90 days; or 
 (b) default in payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on any Note of that Series; or 
 (c) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty that has been
included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of Series of Notes other than that Series), which default continues uncured for a period of 90 days after written notice given by the Trustees for such Notes or Holders of such Notes, or the Company
and the Trustee receive written notice from Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Notes outstanding; or 
 (d) the Company: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case in bankruptcy,

 19 

 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of any Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.01(d) or (e)) then in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that Series may declare the principal amount (or, if any Notes of that Series are Discount Notes, such portion of the principal amount as may be
specified in the terms of such Notes) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Notes of that Series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such
declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) or (e) shall occur, the principal amount (or
specified amount) of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to any Series has been made, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Notes of that Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default
(except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived and all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation expenses and disbursements
of the Trustee and its agent and counsel have been paid. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of any Series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest on such Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of such Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a
proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not
impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any Series
then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of
premium or interest on, or the principal of, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any Series may
rescind an acceleration of such Notes and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default or Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

 20 

 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 
 Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any Series may in writing direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the
Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it, subject to Section 7.02(f). However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the
rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 
 A Holder of any Series of Notes may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 
 (a) the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 
 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such Series make a written request to the Trustee to
pursue the remedy; 
 (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to
the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the
request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and 
 (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
 A Holder of
any Series of Notes may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of such Series of Notes or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of Notes of such Series. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in
connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 
 If an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal
of, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on, the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and 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. 
  

 21 

 Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee for each Series of Notes is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian 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 to 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 7.07 hereof. 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 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by
a Lien 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. Nothing herein contained 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 Notes
or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

 ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default the duties of the
Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into
this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (c) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of
the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to
determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated thereon).

except that: 
 (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01; 
 (2) the Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the
Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
  

 23 

 (3) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take
in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof; and 
 (4) no provision of
this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder
has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (e) Whether or not therein
expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 7.01.

Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

reliance thereon. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and will not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of
any agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it

security against the losses, liabilities and expenses that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (g) In no
event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation strikes, work
stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it
being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 
  

 24 

 (h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, 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. 
 (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are
extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 
 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such
conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee (if this Indenture has been qualified under the TIA) or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and
7.11 hereof. 
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer and Acceptance of Facsimile Instructions. 
 The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be
accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money
received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it will not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other
than its certificate of authentication. 
 The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions it receives by facsimile pursuant to this
Indenture, provided that promptly following delivery of such facsimile instructions, the originally executed instructions shall be delivered to the Trustee, and such originally executed instructions shall be signed by an authorized person.

 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 
 If
a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event
of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice from Holders of the Notes 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 Notes. 
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 
 (a) Within 60 days after the first day of the Company’s fiscal year beginning with the [•] following the date of this Indenture, and for
so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee will mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA § 313(a) (but if no event described in TIA § 313(a) has occurred within
the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also will comply with TIA § 313(b)(2). The Trustee will also transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 
  

 25 

 (b) A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes will be mailed by the
Trustee to the Company and filed by the Trustee with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Company will promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange or delisted therefrom. 
 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 
 (a) The Company will pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the Trustee
and the Company may agree. The Trustee’s compensation will not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company will reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and
expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b) The Company will indemnify the Trustee, its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and against any and all losses,
liabilities 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 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, 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 may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company will not relieve the
Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need
not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (c) The obligations of the Company
under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (d) To secure the Company’s payment
obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(d) or (e) hereof occurs, the
expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 (f) The Trustee will comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable. 
 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 
 (a) A
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company with 30 days prior notice in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee with 30 days prior written notice if: 

 

 26 

 (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
 (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy
Law; 
 (3) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
 (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 
 (c) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company will promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office,
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. 
 (d) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company, or
the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction, at the expense of the Company, for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (e) If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof,
such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (f) A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will
have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor
Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Company’s
obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

 If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
corporation, the successor corporation without any further act will be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification.

 There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100.0
million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition.

 ARTICLE 8 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01
Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The Company may at any time, at the option of its Board of Directors
evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 
 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 
 Upon
the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged
from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes of such Series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company will be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes of such Series, which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

(b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Section 4.02 hereof; 
 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and

 (d) this Article 8. 
 Subject
to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 
 Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof
of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of the guarantors, if any, will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants
contained in Section 4.03 with respect to the outstanding Notes of the applicable Series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes
shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed
“outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes of such
Series, 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 covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant
or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified
above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Section 6.01(c) hereof shall not constitute an Event of Default. 
  

 28 

 Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof: 
 (a) the Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular
redemption date; 
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that: 
 (1) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a
ruling; or 
 (2) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law,

 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will
not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (c) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in
the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (d) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; 
  

 29 

 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (f) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of
preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company or others; and 
 (g) the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating
to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 8.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust;
Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the
proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes of any Series
will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government
Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes of the
applicable Series. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to
time upon the request of the Company any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to Company. 
 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, premium, if any, or interest on, any Series of Notes and remaining unclaimed for two
years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be
permitted to 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, will thereupon cease; provided, however,
that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that
such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

  

 30 

 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of
any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s and any applicable guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the applicable Notes and the guarantees will be
revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the
case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01 Without
Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture or the Notes of one or more Series without the consent of any Holder of Note: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity,
defect or inconsistency; 
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;

 (3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes by a successor to the
Company pursuant to Article 5 hereof; 
 (4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the
Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder; 
 (5) to comply with
requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 
 (6) to provide
for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of Notes of any Series as permitted by this Indenture; or 
 (7) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of one or more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee. 
 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a
Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of any amended
or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or
supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
  

 31 

 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 
 The Company and the Trustee may enter into a supplemental indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Notes of each Series affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes of such Series), for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Notes of each such Series. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Holders of
at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of each Series, by notice to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes of such Series) may waive compliance
by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes with respect to such Series. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of
the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. Upon the request of the Company accompanied
by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the
Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
 After a supplemental indenture or waiver under this section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice
briefly describing the supplemental indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. However,
without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not, with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder: 
 (a) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes; 
 (b) reduce the rate (or alter the method of computation) of or extend the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

 (c) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a rescission
of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration; 
 (d) make the principal of or premium, if any or interest on any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes; 
  

 32 

 (e) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the
rights of Holders of the Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium, interest, if any, on the Notes and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payments; 
 (f) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions; or 
 (g) reduce the percentage in principal amount of any Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any of the foregoing modifications or otherwise necessary to modify or amend the Indenture or to waive
any past Defaults. 
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 
 Every amendment to this Indenture or the Notes of one or more Series will be set forth in a supplemental indenture hereto that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 
 Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting
Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date
the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 
 The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver
on any Note of any Series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for Notes of that Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon request new Notes of that Series that reflect the amendment or waiver. 
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver. 
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 
 In
executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall sign all supplemental indentures, except
that the Trustee need not sign any supplemental indenture that adversely affects its rights. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 10.01 Satisfaction and
Discharge. 
 This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to a Series of Notes issued hereunder, when:

  

 33 

 (a) either: 
 (1) all such Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for
whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (2) all such Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one
year and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination
thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and
accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
 (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of
such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the
Company or any guarantor, as applicable, is a party or by which the Company, or any guarantor, as applicable, is bound; 
 (c) the Company or
any guarantor of such Notes has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (d) the Company has delivered
irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Company must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (2) of clause
(a) of this Section 10.01, the provisions of Sections 10.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 10.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms,
survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 10.02 Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof shall be held in trust
and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes with respect to which such deposit was made 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 premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 10.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s and any applicable
guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the applicable Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.
