	Subject to adjustment under Section 4.2 of the Plan.

	2 
	Subject to early termination under Section 10.7 of the Plan.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARD 
 

		
	1. 
	Performance Units. 

Each Performance Unit constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Corporation to deliver up to two shares of the Corporation’s common stock to the Participant (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 of the Plan) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, subject to the vesting provisions in Exhibit A. The Performance Units shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the payment to eventually be made to the Participant if such Performance Units vest pursuant to Section 2. The Performance Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind. 
 
		
	2. 
	Vesting. 

 
Subject to Section 7, the installments of the Award shall vest and become nonforfeitable at the vesting percentage levels set forth in Exhibit A, based on the achievement of the Performance Goals established by the Committee and set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto for the respective Performance Periods.  In the event that the respective performance condition with respect to each installment of the Award is achieved, the respective installment of the Award shall become unconditionally due.  Subject to Section 7, any Performance Units subject to the Award that do not vest in accordance with Exhibit A shall terminate as of the last day of the respective Performance Period. 

		
	3.
	Continuance of Service. 

Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 7 below, the vesting schedule requires continued Service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the applicable installment of the Award and the rights and benefits under this Agreement; and Service for only a portion of any vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Participant to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of Participant’s Service as provided in Section 7 below or under the Plan for such vesting period (or for any later vesting period). 
 
Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan constitutes an employment or service commitment by the Corporation, affects the contractual obligations pursuant to any employment or service commitment agreement if Participant is party to such agreement, or in the absence of such agreement affects Participant’s status as an employee at will who is subject to termination without cause, confers upon the Participant any right to remain employed by or in service to the Corporation or any Subsidiary Corporation, interferes in any way with the right of the Corporation or any Subsidiary Corporation at any time to terminate Participant’s Service, or affects the right of the Corporation or any Subsidiary Corporation to increase or decrease the Participant’s other compensation or benefits. Nothing in this paragraph, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Participant without his consent thereto. 

		
	4. 
	Limitations on Rights Associated with Performance Units. 

 
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Corporation, no dividend rights and no voting rights with respect to the Performance Units and any shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such Performance Units until such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the stock certificate. 
 
		
	5. 
	Restrictions on Transfer. 

 
Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, neither the Award, nor any interest therein may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, alienated or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily. The transfer restrictions in the preceding sentence shall not apply to (a) transfers to the Corporation, or (b) transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 

2

 
		
	6. 
	Conversion of Performance Units; Issuance of Common Stock. 

 
On or as soon as administratively practicable following the last day of the respective Performance Period, and in any event, no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the vesting event occurs (which payment schedule is intended to comply with the “short-term deferral” exemption from the application of Section 409A of the Code), unless such payment is deferred in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Corporation’s non-qualified compensation deferral plans, the Corporation shall deliver to the Participant the respective number of shares of Common Stock (either by delivering one or more certificates for such shares or by entering such shares in book entry form, as determined by the Corporation in its discretion) for the respective installment of the Performance Units (if any) that vest in accordance with Section 2, unless such Performance Units terminate prior to the given vesting date pursuant to Section 7. The Corporation’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock with respect to any vested Performance Units is subject to the condition precedent that the Participant or other person entitled under the Plan to receive any shares with respect to the vested Performance Units deliver to the Corporation any representations or other documents or assurances required pursuant to Section 14 of the Plan. The Participant shall have no further rights with respect to any Performance Units that are paid or that are terminated pursuant to Section 7. 

		
	7. 
	Effect of Change in Control or Termination of Employment. 

 
7.1 Effect of Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, if, within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, the Participant’s Service is terminated by the Corporation without Cause or the Participant terminates his employment for Good Reason, then the Performance Units shall become immediately 100% vested and the Corporation shall deliver to the Participant one share of Common Stock for each Performance Unit that vested as result of such termination. 
 
7.2 Effect of Termination of Participant’s Service. If the Participant’s Service ceases for any reason (the last day that the Participant’s Service is referred to as the Participant’s “Severance Date”), the Participant’s Performance Units, to the extent unvested on the Severance Date, shall terminate and be forfeited as of the Severance Date.
 
For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings.
“Cause” shall have the meaning given to such term in the Employment Agreement.

“Employment Agreement” shall mean the Employment Agreement made as of ________, ____, between the Participant and the Corporation, as may be amended from time to time.

“Good Reason” shall have the meaning given to such term in the Employment Agreement.

If any unvested Performance Units are terminated hereunder, such Performance Units shall automatically terminate and be cancelled as of the applicable termination date without payment of any consideration by the Corporation and without any other action by the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary or personal representative, as the case may be. 
 
		
	8. 
	Adjustments Upon Specified Events. 

 
The Committee may accelerate payment and vesting of the Performance Units in such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, may determine. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the Corporation’s stock contemplated by Section 4.2 of the Plan (including, without limitation, an extraordinary cash dividend on such stock), the Committee shall make adjustments in the number of Performance Units then outstanding and the number and kind of securities that may be issued in respect of the Award. No such adjustment shall be made with respect to any ordinary cash dividend paid on the Common Stock. Furthermore, the Committee shall adjust the performance measures and performance goals referenced in Exhibit A hereof to the extent (if any) it determines that the adjustment is necessary or advisable to preserve the intended incentives and benefits to reflect (1) any material 

3

change in corporate capitalization, any material corporate transaction (such as a reorganization, combination, separation, merger, acquisition, or any combination of the foregoing), or any complete or partial liquidation of the Corporation, (2) any change in accounting policies or practices, (3) the effects of any special charges to the Corporation’s earnings, or (4) any other similar special circumstances. 

		
	9. 
	Tax Withholding. 

 
Subject to Section 16 of the Plan and such rules and procedures as the Committee may impose, upon any distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect of the Award, the Corporation shall automatically reduce the number of shares to be delivered by (or otherwise reacquire) the appropriate number of whole shares, valued at their then Fair Market Value, to satisfy any withholding obligations of the Corporation or its Subsidiary Corporations with respect to such distribution of shares at the minimum applicable withholding rates; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not apply in the event that the Participant has, subject to the approval of the Committee, made other provision in advance of the date of such distribution for the satisfaction of such withholding obligations. In the event that the Corporation cannot legally satisfy such withholding obligations by such reduction of shares, or in the event of a cash payment or any other withholding event in respect of the Award, the Corporation (or a Subsidiary Corporation) shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the Participant and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to such distribution or payment. 

		
	10. 
	Notices. 

 
Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Corporation at its principal office to the attention of the Secretary, and to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected on the Corporation’s records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be given only when received, but if the Participant is no longer an employee of the Corporation, shall be deemed to have been duly given by the Corporation when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as aforesaid, registered or certified, and deposited (postage and registry or certification fee prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Government. 
 
		
	11. 
	Plan. 

 
The Award and all rights of the Participant under this Agreement are subject to, and the Participant agrees to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the provisions of the Plan, incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall govern. The Participant acknowledges having read and understood the Plan, the Prospectus for the Plan, and this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other sections of this Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the Committee do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in the Participant unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Committee so conferred by appropriate action of the Committee under the Plan after the date hereof. 

		
	12. 
	Construction; Section 409A. 

 
It is intended that the terms of the Award will not result in the imposition of any tax liability pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined in Code Section 409A and, as a result of that status, any portion of the payments under this Agreement would otherwise be subject to taxation pursuant to Code Section 409A, the Participant shall not be entitled to any payments upon a termination of his Service until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after his termination of Service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of the Participant’s death; provided the first such payment thereafter shall include all amounts that would have been paid earlier but for such six (6) month delay. The Corporation and the Participant agree to act reasonably and to cooperate to amend or modify this Agreement to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid the imposition of the tax under Code Section 409A.

	13. 
	Entire Agreement; Applicability of Other Agreements. 

 
This Agreement and the Plan together constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Plan and this Agreement may be amended pursuant to Section 17 of the Plan. Such amendment must be in writing and signed by the Corporation. The Corporation may, however, unilaterally waive any provision hereof in writing to the extent such waiver does not adversely affect the interests of the Participant hereunder, but no such waiver shall operate as or be construed to be a subsequent waiver of the same provision or a waiver of any other provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is subject to a written employment, change in control or similar agreement with the Corporation that is in effect as of the Participant’s Severance Date and the Participant would be entitled under the express provisions of such agreement to greater rights with respect to accelerated vesting of the Award in connection with the termination of the Participant’s employment in the circumstances, the provisions of such agreement shall control with respect to such vesting rights, and the corresponding provisions of this Agreement shall not apply.  

		
	14. 
	Limitation on Participant’s Rights. 

 
Participation in this Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Corporation as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. The Participant shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Corporation (or applicable Subsidiary Corporation) with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable in cash, if any, with respect to the Performance Units, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Common Stock (or equivalent value) as a general unsecured creditor with respect to Performance Units, as and when payable thereunder. 
 
		
	15. 
	Forfeiture and Corporation’s Right to Recover Fair Market Value of Shares Received Pursuant to Performance Units. 

 
If, at any time, the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, in its sole discretion determines that any action or omission by Participant constituted (a) wrongdoing that contributed to (i) any material misstatement in or omission from any report or statement filed by the Corporation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or (ii) a statement, certification, cost report, claim for payment, or other filing made under Medicare or Medicaid that was false, fraudulent, or for an item or service not provided as claimed, (b) intentional or gross misconduct, (c) a breach of a fiduciary duty to the Corporation or a Subsidiary Corporation, (d) fraud or (e) non-compliance with the Corporation’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, policies or procedures to the material detriment of the Corporation, then in each such case, commencing with the first fiscal year of the Corporation during which such action or omission occurred, Participant shall forfeit (without any payment therefore) up to 100% of any Performance Units that have not been vested or settled and shall repay to the Corporation, upon notice to Participant by the Corporation, up to 100% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock at the time such shares were delivered to the Participant pursuant to the Performance Units during and after such fiscal year.  The Board or the Committee, as the case may be, shall determine in its sole discretion the date of occurrence of such action or omission, the percentage of the Performance Units that shall be forfeited and the percentage of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to the Performance Units that must be repaid to the Corporation.

		
	16. 
	Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

		
	17. 
	Section Headings. 

 
The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect any provision hereof. 

5

 18.  Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles thereunder.

in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence
of Section 2.06.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05,
unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), payment of principal of and any premium and interest on any
Security in permanent global form shall be made to the persons or persons specified therein.

at the close of business on the record date with respect to an interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the interest
payable on such interest payment date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Security upon any registration of transfer or exchange
thereof subsequent to such record date and prior to such interest payment date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the
Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on such interest payment date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to
the persons in whose names the Securities are registered on a subsequent record date established by notice given to the extent
and in the manner set forth in Section 15.04 by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of Securities of the series in
default not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than five days preceding the
date of payment of such defaulted interest, or in any other lawful manner acceptable to the Trustee.

such Security, the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them
have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities, or did not hold such offices at the
date of such Securities.

 

Upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture,
the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to the incumbency and specimen signatures of officers
authorized to execute and deliver the Securities and give instructions under this Section and, as long as Securities are Outstanding
under this Indenture, shall deliver a similar Officers’ Certificate each year on the anniversary of the date of the first
such Officers’ Certificate. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the documents delivered pursuant to this Section (unless
revoked by superseding comparable documents) and Section 2.03 hereof as to the authorization of the Board of Directors of
any Securities delivered hereunder, and the form and terms thereof, and as to the authority of the instructing officers referred
to in this Section so to act.

 

The Trustee shall at any time, and from time
to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in an unlimited aggregate principal amount upon receipt by the Trustee of a
Company Order; provided, however, that with respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, (a) such Company
Order may be delivered to the Trustee prior to the delivery to the Trustee of such Securities for authentication and delivery,
(b) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate
principal amount not exceeding the aggregate principal amount, if any, established for such series, pursuant to a Company Order
or pursuant to such procedures acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order, (c) the
maturity date or dates, original issue date or dates, interest rate or rates and any other terms of Securities of such series shall
be determined by Company Order or pursuant to such procedures, and (d) if provided for in such procedures, such Company Order
may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent
or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing.

 

Prior to the issuance of a Security of any
new series, and the authentication thereof by the Trustee, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Section 7.02) shall
be fully protected in relying on:

 

(i)          The
Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto establishing the terms and the form of the Securities
of that series pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.03;

 

(ii)         An
Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the authentication
and delivery of Securities in such form have been complied with;

 

(iii)        An
Opinion of Counsel stating that all such conditions precedent have been complied with.

 

    12 

     

    

 

With respect to Securities of a series offered
in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms
thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other documents
delivered pursuant to this Section in connection with the first authentication of Securities of such series unless and until such
Opinion of Counsel or other documents have been superseded or revoked. In connection with the authentication and delivery of Securities
of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that the Company’s instructions to authenticate
and deliver such Securities do not violate any rules, regulations or orders of any governmental agency or commission having jurisdiction
over the Company.

 

Each Registered Security shall be dated the
date of its authentication except as otherwise provided by Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate or indenture supplemental
hereto.

 

The aggregate principal amount of Securities
of any series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such series set forth in or
pursuant to the Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate or indenture supplemental hereto delivered pursuant to Section 2.03,
except as provided in Section 2.08.

 

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security, a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company,
and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.09 together with a written
statement stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security
shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 2.07. Exchange and
Registration of Transfer of Securities.

 

(a)          The
Company shall keep, at an office or agency to be designated and maintained by the Company in accordance with Section 4.02
(as such, a “Security Registrar”), registry books (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register Registered Securities and shall register the transfer of Registered
Securities of each such series as provided in this Article 2. Such Security Register shall be in written form or in any other form
capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times such Security Register shall be
open for inspection by the Trustee. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of a particular
series at such office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 4.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment, the Company shall
execute and register and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in the name of the transferee or transferees
a new Registered Security or Registered Securities of such series of any authorized denominations and for an equal aggregate principal
amount and tenor.

 

    13 

     

    

 

(b)          At
the option of the holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series
of any authorized denominations and of an equal aggregate principal amount and tenor. Registered Securities to be exchanged shall
be surrendered at any such office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 4.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment, and
the Company shall execute and register and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor
the Security or Securities that the securityholder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive.

 

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

 

All Registered Securities presented for registration
of transfer or for exchange, redemption or payment, as the case may be, shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be
duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and
the Trustee or the Security Registrar duly executed by, the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

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

 

The Company shall not be required (1) to
issue, to exchange or register the transfer of Securities of any series to be redeemed for a period of 15 days next preceding any
selection of such Securities to be redeemed, or (2) to exchange or register the transfer of any Registered Security so selected,
called or being called for redemption, except in the case of any such series to be redeemed in part the portion thereof not to
be so redeemed.

 

(d)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable
pursuant to this Section only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interests in a permanent global Security
are entitled to exchange such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized
form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(b), then without unnecessary delay but in any event not
later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee or the Security
Registrar definitive Securities of that series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such permanent global
Security executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, in accordance with
instructions given by the Company to the Trustee or the Security Registrar and the Common Depositary or the U.S. Depositary, as
the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing), such permanent global Security shall be surrendered from time to time
by the Common Depositary or the U.S. Depositary, as the case may be, or such other depositary or Common Depositary or U.S. Depositary,
as the case may be, as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent
for such purpose, or to the Security Registrar, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for definitive Securities of the same series

 

    14 

     

    

 

without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate
and make available for delivery in accordance with such instructions, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global Security,
a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as
the portion of such permanent global Security to be exchanged which shall be in the form of Registered Securities; provided, however,
that no such exchanges may occur for a period of 15 days next preceding any selection of Securities of that series and of like
tenor for redemption. Promptly following any such exchange in part, such permanent global Security should be returned by the Trustee
or the Security Registrar to the Common Depositary or the U.S. Depositary, as the case may be, or such other depositary or Common
Depositary or U.S. Depositary referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Registered
Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at the office or agency
where such exchange occurs on (i) any record date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant
interest payment date, or (ii) any special record date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the
related proposed date for payment of defaulted interest as provided in Section 2.05, interest or defaulted interest, as the
case may be, will not be payable on such interest payment date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of
such Registered Security, but will be payable on such interest payment date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only
to the person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions
of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 2.08. Temporary Securities.

 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities
of any series, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall, upon Company Order, authenticate and make available for delivery,
temporary Securities of such series (typewritten, printed, lithographed or otherwise produced). Such temporary Securities, in any
authorized denominations, shall be substantially in the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in
registered form or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or more or without coupons, in the form approved from time to time by
or pursuant to a Board Resolution but with such omissions, insertions, substitutions and other variations as may be appropriate
for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Company, but not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture or any
provision of applicable law.

 

Except in the case of temporary Securities
in global form (which shall be exchanged as hereinafter provided), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company
will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series
upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 4.02
in a Place of Payment for such series for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of such series, without charge to the holder.
Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities
of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall
in all respects be entitled to the same

 

    15 

     

    

 

benefits under this Indenture as definitive
Securities of the same series and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

Every temporary Security shall be executed
by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like
effect, as the definitive Securities.

 

SECTION 2.09. Mutilated, Destroyed,
Lost or Stolen Securities.

 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to
the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor
a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

If there shall be delivered to the Company
and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security
or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall, subject
to the following paragraph, execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed,
lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 2.10. Cancellation.

 

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption,
exchange or registration of transfer or for credit against any sinking fund payment, as the case may be, shall, if surrendered
to the Company or any agent of the Company or of the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. All

 

    16 

     

    

 

Registered Securities so delivered shall be
promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated
and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any
other person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company
has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated
in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section except as expressly provided by this Indenture.
Any cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be delivered to the Company or disposed of as directed by the Company; provided,
however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, destroy such Securities.

 

SECTION 2.11. Book-Entry Only
System.

 

If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 2.03(b)
with respect to Securities represented by a Security in global form, a series of Securities may be issued initially in book-entry
only form and, if issued in such form, shall be represented by one or more Securities in global form registered in the name of
the U.S. Depositary, or a common depositary for the benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream, for credit to the respective accounts
of the beneficial owners of such Securities (the “Common Depositary”), or other depositary designated with respect
thereto. So long as such system of registration is in effect, (a) Securities of such series so issued in book-entry only form
will not be issuable in the form of or exchangeable for Securities in certificated or definitive registered form, (b) the
records of the U.S. Depositary or Common Depositary or such other depositary will be determinative for all purposes and (c) neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any paying agent, Security Registrar or transfer agent for such Securities will have any responsibility
or liability for (i) any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of owners of beneficial interests in
the Securities of such series, (ii) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests,
(iii) receipt of notices, voting and requesting or directing the Trustee to take, or not to take, or consenting to, certain
actions hereunder, or (iv) the records and procedures of the U.S. Depositary or Common Depositary, or such other depositary,
as the case may be.

 

ARTICLE

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

 

SECTION 3.01. Redemption of
Securities; Applicability of Section.

 

Redemption of Securities of any series as
permitted or required by the terms thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities as specified pursuant
to Section 2.03(b) hereof and this Article; provided, however, that if any provision of any series of Securities shall conflict
with any provision of this Section, the provision of such series of Securities shall govern.

 

    17 

     

    

 

SECTION 3.02. Notice of Redemption;
Selection of Securities.

 

In case the Company shall desire to exercise
the right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of a series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, it shall fix
a date for redemption. Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company,
or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. The Company or the Trustee, as
the case may be, shall give notice of such redemption, in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 15.04, on that date
prior to the date fixed for a redemption to the holders of such Securities so to be redeemed, as a whole or in part, (a) as set
forth in Board Resolutions, as described in Section 2.03(b), or (b) as determined by the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial
Officer, any Senior or other Vice President or the Treasurer of the Company (each, an “Authorized Officer”) and evidenced
by the preparation of an offering document or an Officer’s Certificate specifying the period of notice of such redemption.
If the Board Resolutions or an Authorized Officer do not specify a period of notice of such redemption, the Company or the Trustee,
as the case may be, shall give notice of such redemption, in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 15.04, at least
10 Business Days and not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for a redemption to the holders of such Securities
so to be redeemed as a whole or in part. Notice given in such manner shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether
or not the holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice to the holder of any
such Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption
of any other such Security. If the Company requests the Trustee to give any notice of redemption, it shall make such request at
least ten days prior to the designated date for delivering such notice, unless a shorter period is satisfactory to the Trustee.

 

Each such notice of redemption shall specify
the date fixed for redemption, the redemption price at which such Securities are to be redeemed, the CUSIP numbers of such Securities,
the Place of Payment where such Securities maturing after the date of redemption, are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption
prices, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for
redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, and that on and after said date interest thereon or on the portions thereof
to be redeemed will cease to accrue. If less than all of a series is to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall specify the
numbers of the Securities to be redeemed. In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state
the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security
or Securities of the same series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

 

On or before the redemption date specified
in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section, the Company will deposit in trust with the Trustee or with one or
more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the redemption date all the Securities or portions of Securities
so called for redemption at the appropriate redemption price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption.
If less than all of a series of Securities is to be redeemed, the Company will give the Trustee adequate written notice at least
45 days in advance (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities
to be redeemed.

 

    18 

     

    

 

If less than all the Securities of a series
are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select, pro rata or by lot or in such other manner is it shall deem appropriate and fair,
not more than 60 days prior to the date of redemption, the numbers of such Securities Outstanding not previously called for redemption,
to be redeemed in whole or in part. The portion of principal of Securities so selected for partial redemption shall be equal to
the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof. The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company of the Securities to be redeemed. If, however, less than all the Securities of a series having differing issue
dates, interest rates and stated maturities are to be redeemed, the Company in its sole discretion shall select the particular
Securities of such series to be redeemed and shall notify the Trustee in writing at least 45 days prior to the relevant redemption
date.

 

SECTION 3.03. Payment of Securities
Called for Redemption.

 

If notice of redemption has been given as
above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and
payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with any interest accrued
to the date fixed for redemption, and on and after said date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities
at the redemption price, together with interest accrued to said date) interest on such Securities or portions of Securities so
called for redemption shall cease to accrue. On presentation and surrender of such Securities subject to redemption at the Place
of Payment and in the manner specified in such notice, and maturing after the date specified in such notice for redemption, such
Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable redemption price, together
with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 2.03(b), installments of interest on Registered Securities whose stated maturity date is on or prior to the date
of redemption shall be payable to the holders of such Registered Securities, or one or more predecessor Securities, registered
as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 2.05.

 

At the option of the Company, payment with
respect to Registered Securities may be made by check to the holders of such Securities or other persons entitled thereto against
presentation and surrender of such Securities.

 

Any Security that is to be redeemed only in
part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by,
or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the holder thereof or
such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and upon such presentation, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities
of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the principal
of the Security so presented. If a temporary global Security or permanent global Security is so surrendered, such new Security
so issued shall be a new temporary global Security or permanent global Security, respectively.

 

    19 

     

    

 

SECTION 3.04. Redemption Suspended
During Event of Default.

 

The Trustee shall not redeem any Securities
(unless all Securities then outstanding are to be redeemed) or commence the giving of any notice or redemption of Securities during
the continuance of any Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or notice, except that
where the giving of notice of redemption of any Securities shall theretofore have been made, the Trustee shall redeem such Securities,
provided funds are deposited with it for such purpose. Except as aforesaid, any moneys theretofore or thereafter received by the
Trustee shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default, be held in trust for the benefit of the securityholders and applied
in the manner set forth in Section 6.06; provided, however, that in case such Event of Default shall have been waived as provided
herein or otherwise cured, such moneys shall thereafter be held and applied in accordance with the provisions of this Article.

trust office of the Trustee.

 

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

provisions of this Section:

 

(1)         that

to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent.

 

(b)          If
the Company shall act as its own paying agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or
any interest on the Securities of any series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the persons entitled thereto

the Company shall have one or more paying agents with respect to a series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date
of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or any interest on, any Securities, deposit with a paying agent a sum sufficient
to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or any interest, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such paying agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly
notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

 

(d)          Anything
in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture with respect to one or more or all series of Securities hereunder, or for any other reason, pay or

 

    21

the trusts herein contained, and upon such payment by any paying agent to the Trustee, such paying agent shall be released from
all further liability with respect to such money.

 

(e)          Anything

known to him or her and the nature and status thereof.

 

SECTION 4.05. Corporate Existence.

 

Subject to the provisions of Article 11, the
Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence,

SECURITYHOLDER LISTS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE

 

SECTION 5.01. Securityholder
Lists.

 

The Company covenants and agrees that it will
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee (1) semiannually, not later than January 15 and July 15 in each year, when
any Securities of a series are Outstanding, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of all information in the
possession or control of the Company as to the names and addresses of the holders of such Registered Securities as of such date,
and (2) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such
request, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of all information in the possession or control of the Company
as to the names and addresses of the holders of Registered Securities of a particular series specified by the Trustee as of a date
not more than 15 days prior to the time such information is furnished; provided, however, that if and so long as the Trustee shall
be the Security Registrar with respect to such series, such list shall not be required to be furnished.

 

SECTION 5.02. Preservation
and Disclosure of Lists.

 

(a)          The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the
holders of each series of Securities contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 or received
by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01
upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

 

(b)          In
case three or more holders of Securities of a series (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to
the Trustee and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Security of such series for a period
of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate
with other holders of Securities of a particular series (in which case the applicants must hold Securities of such series) or with
holders of all Securities with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Securities and it is accompanied by a
copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five
Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either

 

    23 

     

    

 

(i)          afford
to such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a)
of this Section, or

 

(ii)         inform
such applicants as to the approximate number of holders of Securities of such series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose
names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a)
of this Section and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such securityholders the form of proxy or other communication, if
any, specified in such application.

 

If the Trustee shall elect not to afford to
such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each securityholder
of such series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by
the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, a copy of the form of proxy or other communication
which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of
payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the Trustee
shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement
to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the holders of Securities
of such series or all Securities, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall
specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written
statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining
one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so
sustained have been met, and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such securityholders
with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved
of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.

 

(c)          Each
and every holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company
nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall be deemed to be in violation of any law or shall be held accountable
by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the holders of Securities in accordance with
the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that
the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under said subsection (b).

 

SECTION 5.03. Reports by the
Company.

 

The Company covenants so long as Securities
are Outstanding:

 

(a)          to
file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual
reports and of the information,

 

    24 

     

    

 

documents and other reports (or
copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which
the Company may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
or, if the Company is not required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of such sections, then to file
with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by said Commission,
such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13 of
the Exchange Act in respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time
to time in such rules and regulations;

 

(b)          to
file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission,
such additional information, documents, and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants
provided for in this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations; and

 

(c)          to
transmit by mail to all the holders of Registered Securities of each series, as the names and addresses of such holders appear
on the registry books, within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries of any information, documents
and reports required to be filed by the Company with respect to each such series pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this
Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission.

 

For purposes of this Section 5.03, the Company will be
deemed to have provided a required report to the Trustee and holders of the Securities if it has timely filed such report
with the Commission via the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system).

 

SECTION 5.04. Reports by the
Trustee.

 

(a)          On
or before [May 15] of each year after the date hereof, so long as any Securities are outstanding hereunder and if there has been
any change in the following, the Trustee shall transmit to the securityholders, as provided in subsection (c) of this Section,
in accordance with and to the extent required by Section 3.13(a) of the Act, a brief report dated as of the preceding May
15, with respect to:

 

(1)         any

character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof)
made by the Trustee (as such) which remain unpaid on the date of such report, and for the reimbursement of which it claims or may
claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Securities, on any property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee, except that
the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances so remaining unpaid aggregate not more
than one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the principal amount of the Securities for any series Outstanding on the date of such Report;

 

    25 

     

    

 

(4)         any
change to the amount, interest rate and maturity date of all other indebtedness owing by the Company (or by any other obligor on
the Securities) to the Trustee in its individual capacity, on the date of such report, with a brief description of any property
held as collateral security therefor, except as indebtedness based upon a creditor relationship arising in any manner described
in paragraph (2), (3), (4), or (6) of subsection (b) of Section 7.13;

 

(5)         any
change to the property and funds, if any, physically in the possession of the Trustee as such on the date of such report;

 

(6)         any
additional issue of Securities that it has not previously reported; and

 

(7)         any
action taken by the Trustee in the performance of its duties under this Indenture that it has not previously reported and that
in its opinion materially affects the Securities, except action in respect of a default, notice of which has been or is to be withheld
by it in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.14.

 

(b)          The
Trustee shall transmit to the holders of Securities of any series, as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, a brief
report with respect to the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding
the making thereof) made by the Trustee (as such) since the date of the last report transmitted pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a)
of this Section (or if no such report has yet been so transmitted, since the date of execution of this Indenture), for the reimbursement
of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge prior to that of the Securities of any series on property or funds held or collected
by it as Trustee, and which it has not previously reported pursuant to this subsection (b), except that the Trustee for each
series shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances remaining unpaid at any time aggregate 10%
or less of the principal amount of Securities for such series Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted within 90
days after such time.

 

(c)          Reports
pursuant to this Section shall be transmitted by mail:

 

(1)         to
all holders of Registered Securities, as the names and addresses of such holders appear in the Security Register; and

 

(2)         to
all holders of Securities whose names and addresses are at that time preserved by the Trustee, as provided in 5.02(a).

 

(d)          A
copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to holders of Securities, be filed by the Trustee with each stock
exchange upon which the Securities are listed and also with the Commission and the Company. The Company agrees to promptly notify
the Trustee when and as the Securities become listed on any stock exchange.

SECTION 6.01. Events of Default;
Acceleration of Maturity.

 

In case one or more of the following Events
of Default with respect to a particular series shall have occurred and be continuing:

 

(a)          default
in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of such series as and when the same shall become
due and payable either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise; or

 

(b)          default
in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Securities of such series as and when the same shall become due and

(c)          failure
on the part of the Company duly to observe or perform any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company in the

the Company to remedy the same, shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities affected thereby at the time Outstanding; or

 

(d)          a
court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary
case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or
ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period
of 60 consecutive days; or

 

(e)          the

or for any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

 

(f)           a
Default under the Credit Agreement (as defined therein);

 

then, if an Event of Default described in clause (a), (b) or
(c) shall have occurred and be continuing, and in each and every such case, unless the principal amount of all the Securities of
such series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of all series affected thereby then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to
the Trustee if given by securityholders) may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or, with respect to Original Issue
Discount Securities, such lesser amount as may be specified in the terms of such

 

    27 

     

    

 

Securities) affected thereby to be due and payable immediately,
and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in
the Securities of such series contained to the contrary notwithstanding, or, if an Event of Default described in clause (d) or
(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all the Securities of such
series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal
amount of all the Securities then Outstanding hereunder (voting as one class), by notice in writing to the Company (and to the
Trustee if given by securityholders), may declare the principal of all the Securities (or, with respect to Original Issue Discount
Securities, such lesser amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities) to be due and payable immediately, and upon
any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Securities
contained to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

SECTION 6.02. Rescission and
Annulment.

 

The provisions in Section 6.01 are subject
to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Securities of any one or more of all series, as the case may be,
shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been
obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all
matured installments of interest upon all the Securities of such series or of all the Securities, as the case may be, and the principal
of (and premium, if any, on) all Securities of such series or of all the Securities, as the case may be (or, with respect to Original
Issue Discount Securities, such lesser amount as may be specified in the terms of such Securities), which shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such
interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest, at the same rate as the rate of interest specified
in the Securities of such series or all Securities, as the case may be (or, with respect to Original Issue Discount Securities,
at the rate specified in the terms of such Securities for interest on overdue principal thereof upon maturity, redemption or acceleration
of such series, as the case may be), to the date of such payment or deposit, and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances
made, by the Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith, and any and all defaults under the Indenture, other than
the non-payment of the principal of Securities, which shall have become due by acceleration, shall have been remedied; then and
in every such case the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series (or of all the Securities,
as the case may be) then Outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all defaults with respect
to that series or with respect to all Securities, as the case may be in such case, treated as a single class and rescind and annul
such declaration and its consequences; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent
default or shall impair any right consequent thereon.

 

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to
enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission
and annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company,
the Trustee and the securityholders, as the case may be, shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder,
and all rights,

 

    28 

     

    

 

remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee
and the securityholders, as the case may be, shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

 

SECTION 6.03. Collection of
Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 

The Company covenants that if

 

(1)         default
is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
continues for a period of 30 days, or

 

(2)         default
is made in the payment of the principal or premium, if any, of any Security at the maturity thereof, including any maturity occurring
by reason of a call for redemption or otherwise,

 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for
the benefit of the holders of such Securities, the whole amount that shall have become due and payable on such Securities for principal
or premium, if any, and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall
be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate borne by such Securities; and, in addition thereto,
such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

 

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith
upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the
collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner
provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

 

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

 

SECTION 6.04. Trustee May File
Proofs of Claim.

 

In the case of the pendency of a receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative
to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or such other obligor or their creditors,
the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal
or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

    29 

     

    

 

(i)           to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and premium, if any, and any interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel)
and of the holders of Securities allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

(ii)          to
collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or sequestrator
(or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each holder of Securities 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 of Securities,
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 7.06. To the extent that such payment of reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements, advances and other amounts out of the estate in any such proceedings 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,
moneys, securities and other property which the holders of the Securities may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether
in liquidation or under any plan or reorganization or arrangements or otherwise.

 

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

 

SECTION 6.05. Trustee May Enforce
Claims Without Possession of Securities.

 

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

 

SECTION 6.06. Application of
Money Collected.

 

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

 

    30 

     

    

 

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts
due the Trustee under Section 7.06;

 

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

 

THIRD: To the Company or its successors
or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

 

SECTION 6.07. Limitation on
Suits.

 

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

 

(1)          such
holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

 

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

 

(3)          such
holder or holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
compliance with such request;

 

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

 

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

 

it being understood and intended that no one or more such holders
of Securities shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such holders of Securities or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other of such holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal
and ratable benefit of all such holders of Securities.

 

SECTION 6.08. Unconditional
Right of Securityholders to Receive Principal and Interest.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, the holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal
of

 

    31 

     

    

 

and premium, if any, and (subject to Sections 2.05
and 3.02) any interest on such Security on the respective stated maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on the redemption date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without
the consent of such holder.

 

SECTION 6.09. Restoration of
Rights and Remedies.

 

If the Trustee or any holder of a Security
has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such holder, then and in every such case the Company,
the Trustee and the holders of Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively
to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the holders shall continue as though
no such proceeding has been instituted.

 

SECTION 6.10. Rights and Remedies
Cumulative.

 

Except as provided in Section 2.09, no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders of Securities is intended to be exclusive of
any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every
other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment
of any right or remedy hereunder or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate
right or remedy.

 

SECTION 6.11. Delay or Omission
Not Waiver.

 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of
any holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute
a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee
or to the holders of Securities may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or
by the holders of Securities, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 6.12. Control by Securityholders.

 

The holders of a majority in principal amount
of Outstanding Securities of each series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

 

(1)          such
direction shall not be in conflict with any statute, rule of law or with this Indenture;

 

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

 

    32 

     

    

 

(3)         the
Trustee need not take any action which it in good faith determines might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial
to the securityholders not consenting.

 

Upon receipt by the Trustee of any such direction
with respect to Securities of a series all or part of which is represented by a temporary global Security or a permanent global
Security, the Trustee shall establish a record date for determining holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to
join in such direction, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such direction. The
holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such persons, shall be entitled to join in such direction,
whether or not such holders remain holders after such record date, provided that, unless such majority in principal amount shall
have been obtained prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such direction shall automatically and without further
action by any holder be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a holder, or a proxy of a holder,
from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new direction identical to a direction which has been cancelled pursuant
to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 6.12.

 

SECTION 6.13. Waiver of Past
Defaults.

 

The holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of each series may, on behalf of the holders of all the Securities, waive any past default hereunder
and its consequences, except a default

 

(1)          in
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or any interest on any Security; or

 

(2)          in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof that pursuant to Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

 

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and
any Default or 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 impair any right consequent thereon.

 

SECTION 6.14. Undertaking for
Costs.

 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each
holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require,
in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of
such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against
any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant;
but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any holder,
or group of holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted
by any

 

    33 

     

    

 

holder of any Securities for the enforcement
of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or any interest on any Security on or after the respective stated maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date, except, in the case of a partial redemption,
with respect to the portion not so redeemed).

 

SECTION 6.15. Waiver of Stay
or Extension Laws.

 

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

 

ARTICLE 7

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

SECTION 7.01. Duties and Responsibilities
of Trustee.

 

(a)          The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of a particular series and after the curing of all Events of Default of
such series which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties with respect to such series as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee and in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements
and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming
to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

 

(b)          In
case an Event of Default with respect to a particular series has occurred (which has not been cured), the Trustee shall exercise
with respect to such series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill
in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

 

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

 

(1)          prior
to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to a particular series and after the curing of all Events of Default with
respect to such series which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect to such series shall be
determined solely by the express provisions of this

 

    34 

     

    

 

Indenture, and the Trustee shall not
be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;

 

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

 

(3)          the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the holders of Securities pursuant to Section 6.12 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.

 

(d)          No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed as requiring the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any
personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers,
if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability
is not reasonably assured to it.

 

SECTION 7.02. Reliance on Documents,
Opinions, etc.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01:

 

(a)          the
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

 

(b)          any
request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company
Order (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to
the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company; and whenever in the administration
of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting
any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on
its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate;

 

(c)          the
Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

 

(d)          the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order
or direction of any of the holders of any Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such holders shall have
offered to

 

    35 

     

    

 

the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred therein or thereby;

 

(e)          the
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note or other paper or documents, but
the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and,
if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records
and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 7.03. No Responsibility
for Recitals, etc.

 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities,
other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency
of this Indenture or of the Securities, provided that the Trustee shall not be relieved of its duty to authenticate Securities
only as authorized by this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities
or the proceeds thereof.

 

SECTION 7.04. Ownership of
Securities.

 

The Trustee, any authenticating agent, any
paying agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company or of the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity,
may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, authenticating agent,
paying agent, Security Registrar or such other agent of the Company or of the Trustee.

 

SECTION 7.05. Moneys to be
Held in Trust.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 12.04
hereof, all moneys received by the Trustee or any paying agent shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust
for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.
Neither the Trustee nor any paying agent shall be under any liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder except
such as it may agree in writing with the Company to pay thereon.

 

    36 

     

    

 

SECTION 7.06. Compensation
and Expenses of Trustee.

 

The Company covenants and agrees to pay to
the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder
as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing (which to the extent permitted by law shall not be limited
by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and, except as otherwise expressly provided,
the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee forthwith upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation
and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. If any property other than cash shall at any time be subject to the lien
of this Indenture, the Trustee, if and to the extent authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction
or by the supplemental instrument subjecting such property to such lien, shall be entitled to make and to be reimbursed for, advances
for the purpose of preserving such property or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon. The Company
also covenants to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense,
including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured or determined by, the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence
or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including
the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability. The obligations of the Company under this Section shall
constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities
upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders
of particular Securities.

 

To secure the Company’s obligations
under this Section, the Trustee shall have a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate on all money or property
held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on
particular Securities.

 

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders
services after an Event of Default, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under any bankruptcy law.

 

SECTION 7.07. Officers’
Certificate as Evidence.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01,
whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter
be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect
thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed
to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in
the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

 

    37 

     

    

 

SECTION 7.08. Disqualifications;
Conflicting Interest of Trustee.

 

(a)          If
the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in this Section, it shall, within 90 days after ascertaining
that it has such conflicting interest, and if an Event of Default as defined in subsection (c) of this Section to which such
conflicting interest relates has not been cured or duly waived or otherwise eliminated before the end of such 90-day period, either
eliminate such conflicting interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 7.10.

 

(b)          In
the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, the Trustee shall,
within ten days after the expiration of such 90-day period, transmit notice of such failure in the manner and to the extent set
forth in Section 5.04(c), to all securityholders of the series affected by the conflicting interest.

 

(c)          For
the purposes of this Section the Trustee shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to a particular series if
such Securities are in default and:

 

(1)          the
Trustee is trustee under this Indenture with respect to the outstanding Securities of any other series or is trustee under another
indenture under which any other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in any other securities, of the Company
are outstanding, unless such other indenture is a collateral trust indenture under which the only collateral consists of Securities
issued under this Indenture; provided that there shall be excluded from the operation of this paragraph (A) this Indenture with
respect to any other series, and (B) any other indenture or indentures under which other securities, or certificates of interest
or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if

 

(i)          this
Indenture is, and, if applicable, such other indenture or indentures, are wholly unsecured and rank equally, and such other indenture
or indentures are hereafter qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, as in effect at the time of such qualification, unless the
Commission shall have found and declared by order pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 305 or subsection (c) of
Section 307 of the Trust Indenture Act that differences exist between the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such
particular series and (A) one or more other series in this Indenture or (B) the provisions of such other indenture or
indentures which are so likely to involve a material conflict of interest as to make it necessary in the public interest or for
the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from acting as such under this Indenture with respect to such particular
series and such other series or such other indenture or indentures, or

 

(ii)         the
Company shall have sustained the burden of proving, on application to the Commission and after opportunity for hearing thereon,
that trusteeship under this Indenture with respect to such particular series and such other series or under this Indenture and
such other indenture or indentures is not so likely to involve a material conflict

 

    38 

     

    

 

of interest as to make it necessary
in the public interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from acting as such under this Indenture with
respect to such particular series and such other series or under this Indenture and such other indenture or indentures;

 

(2)         the
Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is an underwriter for an obligor upon the Securities of any series issued
under this Indenture;

 

(3)         the
Trustee directly or indirectly controls or is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control
with an underwriter for the Company;

 

(4)         the
Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is a director, officer, partner, employee, appointee, or representative of
the Company, or of an underwriter (other than the Trustee itself) for the Company who is currently engaged in the business of underwriting,
except that (A) one individual may be a director or an executive officer or both of the Trustee and a director or an executive
officer or both of the Company, but may not be at the same time an executive officer of both the Trustee and the Company; (B) if
and so long as the number of directors of the Trustee in office is more than nine, one additional individual may be a director
or an executive officer or both of the Trustee and a director of the Company; and (C) the Trustee may be designated by the
Company or by any underwriter for the Company to act in the capacity of transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying agent, fiscal
agent, escrow agent, or depositary, or in any other similar capacity, or, subject to the provisions of paragraph (1) of this subsection (c),
to act as trustee, whether under an indenture or otherwise;

 

(5)         10%
or more of the voting securities of the Trustee are beneficially owned either by the Company or by any director, partner, or executive
officer thereof, or 20% or more of such voting securities are beneficially owned, collectively, by any two or more of such persons,
or 10% or more of the voting securities of the Trustee are beneficially owned either by an underwriter for the Company or by any
director, partner, or executive officer thereof, or are beneficially owned, collectively, by any two or more such persons;

 

(6)         the
Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral security for an obligation which is in default, (A) 5% or more
of the voting securities, or 10% or more of any other class of security, of the Company, not including the Securities issued under
this Indenture and securities issued under any other indenture under which the Trustee is also trustee, or (B) 10% or more
of any class of security of an underwriter for the Company;

 

(7)         the
Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral security for an obligation which is in default, 5% or more of the voting
securities of any person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns 10% or more of the

 

    39 

     

    

 

voting securities of, or controls
directly or indirectly or is under direct or indirect common control with, the Company;

 

(8)         the
Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral security for an obligation which is in default, 10% or more of any class
of security of any person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns 50% or more of the voting securities of the Company; or

 

(9)         the
Trustee owns on the date of default as defined in subsection (c) of this Section or any anniversary of such default while
such default remains outstanding, in the capacity of executor, administrator, testamentary or inter vivos trustee, guardian, committee
or conservator, or in any other similar capacity, an aggregate of 25% or more of the voting securities, or of any class of security,
of any person, the beneficial ownership of a specified percentage of which would have constituted a conflicting interest under
paragraph (6), (7) or (8) of this subsection (c). As to any such securities of which the Trustee acquired ownership through
becoming executor, administrator, or testamentary trustee of an estate which included them, the provisions of the preceding sentence
shall not apply, for a period of not more than two years from the date of such acquisition, to the extent that such securities
included in such estate do not exceed 25% of such voting securities or 25% of any such class of security. Promptly after the dates
of any such default and annually in each succeeding year that the Securities of any series hereunder remain in default, the Trustee
shall make a check of its holdings of such securities in any of the above-mentioned capacities as of such dates. If the Company
fails to make payment in full of principal of or interest on any of the Securities when and as the same becomes due and payable,
and such failure continues for 30 days thereafter, the Trustee shall make a prompt check of its holdings of such securities in
any of the above-mentioned capacities as of the date of the expiration of such 30-day period, and after such date, notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (9), all such securities so held by the Trustee, with sole or joint control over such
securities vested in it, shall, but only so long as such failure shall continue, be considered as though beneficially owned by
the Trustee for the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7) and (8) of this subsection (c); or

 

(10)        except
under the circumstances described in Section 7.13, the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor of the Company.

 

The specification of percentages in paragraphs
(5) to (9), inclusive, of this subsection (c) shall not be construed as indicating that the ownership of such percentages
of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of
paragraph (3) or (7) or this subsection (c).

 

For the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7), (8)
and (9) of this subsection (c) only, (A) the terms “security” and “securities” shall include
only such securities as are generally known as corporate securities, but shall not include any note or other evidence of indebtedness
issued to evidence an obligation to repay moneys lent to a person by one or more banks, trust

 

    40 

     

    

 

companies or banking firms, or any certificate
of interest or participation in any such note or evidence of indebtedness; (B) an obligation shall be deemed to be in default
when a default in payment of principal shall have continued for 30 days or more and shall not have been cured; and (C) the
Trustee shall not be deemed to be the owner or holder of (i) any security which it holds as collateral security (as trustee
or otherwise) for any obligation which is not in default as defined in clause (B) above, or (ii) any security which it holds
as collateral security under this Indenture, irrespective of any default hereunder, or (iii) any security which it holds as
agent for collection, or as custodian, escrow agent, or depositary, or in any similar representative capacity.

 

(d)          For
the purposes of this Section:

 

(1)         The
term “underwriter” when used with reference to the Company shall mean every person who, within one year prior to the
time as of which the determination is made, has purchased from the Company with a view to, or has offered or has sold for the Company
in connection with, the distribution of any security of the Company outstanding at such time, or has participated or has had a
direct or indirect participation in any such undertaking, or has participated or has had a participation in the direct or indirect
underwriting of any such undertaking, but such term shall not include a person whose interest was limited to a commission from
an underwriter or dealer not in excess of the usual and customary distributors’ or sellers’ commission.

 

(2)         The
term “director” shall mean any director of a corporation or any individual performing similar functions with respect
to any organization whether incorporated or unincorporated.

 

(3)         The
term “person” shall mean an individual, a corporation, a partnership, an association, a joint-stock company, a trust,
an unincorporated organization, or a government or political subdivision thereof. As used in this paragraph, the term “trust”
shall include only a trust where the interest or interests of the beneficiary or beneficiaries are evidenced by a security.

 

(4)         The
term “voting security” shall mean any security presently entitling the owner or holder thereof to vote in the direction
or management of the affairs of a person, or any security issued under or pursuant to any trust, agreement or arrangement whereby
a trustee or trustees or agent or agents for the owner or holder of such security currently are entitled to vote in the direction
or management of the affairs of a person.

 

(5)         The
term “Company” shall mean any obligor upon the Securities.

 

(6)         The
term “executive officer” shall mean the president, every vice president, every trust officer, the cashier, the secretary,
and the treasurer of a corporation, and any individual customarily performing similar functions with respect to any organization
whether incorporated or unincorporated but shall not include the chairman of the board of directors.

 

    41 

     

    

 

(7)         The
percentages of voting securities and other securities specified in this Section shall be calculated in accordance with the following
provisions:

 

(i)          A
specified percentage of the voting securities of the Trustee, the Company or any other person referred to in this Section (each
of whom is referred to as a “person” in this paragraph) means such amount of the outstanding voting securities of such
person as entitles the holder or holders thereof to cast such specified percentage of the aggregate votes which the holders of
all the outstanding voting securities of such person are entitled to cast in the direction or management of the affairs of such
person.

 

(ii)         A
specified percentage of a class of securities of a person means such percentage of the aggregate amount of securities of the class
outstanding.

 

(iii)        The
term “amount”, when used in regard to securities, means the principal amount if relating to evidences of indebtedness,
the number of shares if relating to capital shares, and the number of units if relating to any other kind of security.

 

(iv)        The
term “outstanding” means issued and not held by or for the account of the issuer. The following securities shall not
be deemed outstanding within the meaning of this definition:

 

(A)         securities
of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to securities of the issuer of the same class;

 

(B)         securities
of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to another class of securities of the issuer, if the obligation evidenced by such
other class of securities is not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;

 

(C)         securities
pledged by the issuer thereof as security for an obligation of the issuer not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;
and

 

(D)         securities
held in escrow if placed in escrow by the issuer thereof;

 

provided, however, that any voting
securities of an issuer shall be deemed outstanding if any person other than the issuer is entitled to exercise the voting rights
thereof.

 

(v)         A
security shall be deemed to be of the same class as another security if both securities confer upon the holder or holders thereof
substantially the same rights and privileges, provided, however, that in the case of secured evidences of indebtedness, all of
which are

 

    42 

     

    

 

issued under a single indenture,
differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such
series different classes and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences of indebtedness, differences in the interest
rates or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute them securities of different classes, whether or not
they are issued under a single indenture.

 

(e)          Except
in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Securities of any series, or in the payment of any
sinking or purchase fund installment, the Trustee shall not be required to resign as provided by subsection (c) of this Section
if the Trustee shall have sustained the burden of proving, on application to the Commission and after opportunity for hearing thereon,
that (i) such default may be cured or waived during a reasonable period and under the procedures described in such application,
and (ii) a stay of the Trustee’s duty to resign will not be inconsistent with the interests of the holders of the Securities
of any series issued hereunder. The filing of such an application shall automatically stay the performance of the duty to resign
until such Commission orders otherwise. Any resignation of the Trustee shall become effective only upon the appointment of a successor
trustee and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment as provided in Section 7.11.

 

(f)          If
Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act is amended at any time after the date of this Indenture to change the circumstances
under which a Trustee shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to the Securities of any series or to change
any of the definitions in connection therewith, this Section 7.08 shall be automatically amended to incorporate such changes,
unless such changes would cause any Trustee then acting as Trustee hereunder with respect to any Outstanding Securities to be deemed
to have a conflicting interest, in which case such changes shall be incorporated herein only to the extent that such changes (i) would
not cause the Trustee to be deemed to have a conflicting interest, or (ii) are required by law.

 

SECTION 7.09. Eligibility of
Trustee.

 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder
which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any State or Territory thereof
or of the District of Columbia, which (a) is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, (b) is subject
to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia authority, (c) shall have at all times
a combined capital and surplus of not less than $[50,000,000] and (d) shall not be the Company or any person directly or indirectly
controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law, or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of
this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation at any time shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus
as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 7.10.

 

    43 

     

    

 

SECTION 7.10. Resignation or
Removal of Trustee.

 

(a)          The
Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign with respect to one or more or all series by giving
written notice of resignation to the Company. Upon receiving such notice of resignation the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
trustee with respect to the applicable series by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors
of the Company, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee.
If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice
of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

 

(b)          In
case at any time any of the following shall occur:

 

(1)         the
Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of subsection (a) of Section 7.08 with respect to any series of Securities
after written request therefor by the Company or by any securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities
of such series for at least six months, or

 

(2)         the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 with respect to any series of Securities
and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such securityholder, or

 

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

 

then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee with
respect to the applicable series of Securities and appoint a successor trustee with respect to such series by written instrument,
in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Company, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.14, any securityholder
of such series who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities of the applicable series for at least six months may,
on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to such series. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as
it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 

(c)          The
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series (voting as one class) at the time Outstanding
may at any time remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of all series and appoint a successor trustee with respect to the
Securities of all series.

 

    44 

     

    

 

(d)          Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee and any appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section
shall become effective upon the appointment of a successor trustee and the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 7.11.

 

SECTION 7.11. Acceptance by
Successor Trustee.

 

Any successor trustee appointed as provided
in Section 7.10 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting
such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee with respect to all or any applicable
series shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with
all the rights, powers, duties and obligations with respect to such series of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the predecessor
trustee shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the predecessor trustee. Upon request of any such
successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing in order more fully and certainly to vest in and
confirm to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee, including the initial Trustee, ceasing to act shall,
nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant
to the provisions of Section 7.06.

 

In case of the appointment hereunder of a
successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the predecessor Trustee and
each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of any applicable series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental
hereto which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring
shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall
be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood
that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each
such trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered
by any other such trustee.

 

No successor trustee shall accept appointment
as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified and eligible under
the provisions of this Article 7.

 

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor
trustee as provided in this Section, the Company shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to all holders of
Securities of any applicable series as the names and addresses of such holders shall appear on the registry books. If the Company
fails to mail such notice in the prescribed manner within ten days after the acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee,
the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be so mailed at the expense of the Company.

 

    45 

     

    

 

SECTION 7.12. Successor by
Merger, etc.

 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be qualified and eligible under
the provisions of this Article 7, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties
hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered,
by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated
such Securities.

 

SECTION 7.13. Limitations on
Rights of Trustee as Creditor.

 

(a)          Subject
to the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly,
secured or unsecured, of the Company or of any other obligor on the Securities within three months prior to a default, as defined
in subsection (c) of this Section, or subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the
Trustee shall set apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the holders of the Securities
and the holders of other indenture securities (as defined in subsection (c) of this Section):

 

(1)         an
amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest,
effected after the beginning of such three months’ period and valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except
any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in paragraph (2) of this subsection or from
the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against
the Company upon the date of such default; and

 

(2)         all
property received by the Trustee in respect of any claim as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition
thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such three months’ period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property,
if disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its other creditors in such property or such proceeds.

 

Nothing herein contained, however, shall affect
the right of the Trustee:

 

(3)         to
retain for its own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any person (other than the Company) who is liable
thereon, and (ii) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third person, and (iii) distributions
made in cash, securities, or other property in respect of claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in

 

    46 

     

    

 

proceedings for reorganization pursuant
to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable State law;

 

(4)         to
realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to
the beginning of such three months’ period;

 

(5)         to
realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security
for any such claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such three months’ period and such property was received
as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving that at the
time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default as defined in subsection (c)
of this Section would occur within three months; or

 

(6)         to
receive payment on any claims referred to in paragraph (4) or (5), against the release of any property held as security for such
claim as provided in such paragraph (4) or (5), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property.

 

For the purposes of paragraphs (4), (5) and
(6), property substituted after the beginning of such three months’ period for property held as security at the time of such
substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and,
to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such paragraphs is created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose
of repaying or refunding any pre-existing claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as such
preexisting claim.

 

If the Trustee shall be required to account,
the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned between the Trustee, the securityholders
and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee, the securityholders and the holders of other indenture
securities realize, as a result of payments from such special account and payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company
in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable
State law, the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account
of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the respective
claims of the Trustee, the securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities, dividends on claims filed against the
Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable
State law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all
sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this paragraph,
with respect to any claim, the term “dividends” shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy
or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable State law, whether
such distribution is made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include

 

    47 

     

    

 

any such distribution with respect to the
secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such bankruptcy, receivership, or proceeding for reorganization is pending
shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion between the Trustee, the securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities,
in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof,
or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration
in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee, the securityholders and the holders of other indenture
securities with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value
of any securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation
of such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims or otherwise to apply the provisions of this
paragraph as a mathematical formula.

 

Any Trustee who has resigned or been removed
after the beginning of such three months’ period shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection (a) as though
such resignation or removal had not occurred. If any Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such three
months’ period it shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection (a) if and only if the following conditions
exist:

 

(i)          the
receipt of property or reduction of claim which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued
as trustee, occurred after the beginning of such three months’ period; and

 

(ii)         such
receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within three months after such resignation or removal.

 

(b)          There
shall be excluded from the operation of subsection (a) of this Section a creditor relationship arising from:

 

(1)         the
ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of one year
or more at the time of acquisition by the Trustee;

 

(2)         advances
authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction, or by this Indenture, for the purpose of preserving
any property which shall at any time be subject to the lien of this Indenture or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens
or encumbrances thereon, if notice of such advance and of the circumstances surrounding the making thereof is given to the securityholders
at the time and in the manner provided in this Indenture;

 

(3)         disbursements
made in the ordinary course of business in the capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying
agent, fiscal agent or depositary, or other similar capacity;

 

(4)         an
indebtedness created as a result of services rendered or premises rented; or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities
sold in a cash transaction as defined in subsection (c) of this Section;

 

    48 

     

    

 

(5)         the
ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation organized under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the Federal
Reserve Act, as amended, which is directly or indirectly a creditor of the Company; or

 

(6)         the
acquisition, ownership, acceptance or negotiation of any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances, or obligations which fall within
the classification of self-liquidating paper as defined in subsection (c) of this Section.

 

(c)          As
used in this Section:

 

(1)         The
term “default” shall mean any failure to make payment in full of the principal of or interest upon any of the Securities
or the other indenture securities when and as such principal or interest becomes due and payable.

 

(2)         The
term “other indenture securities” shall mean securities upon which the Company is an obligor (as defined in the Trust
Indenture Act) outstanding under any other indenture (A) under which the Trustee is also trustee, (B) which contains
provisions substantially similar to the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, and (C) under which a default exists
at the time of the apportionment of the funds and property held in the special account referred to in such subsection (a).

 

(3)         The
term “cash transaction” shall mean any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within
seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable
upon demand.

 

(4)         The
term “self-liquidating paper” shall mean any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn,
negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purposes of financing the purchase, processing, manufacture, shipment, storage or
sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon, the goods,
wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting
the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relation-ship with
the Company arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.

 

(5)         The
term “Company” shall mean any obligor upon the Securities.

 

SECTION 7.14. Notice of Default.

 

Within 90 days after the occurrence of any
default on a series of Securities hereunder, the Trustee shall transmit to all securityholders of that series, in the manner and
to the extent provided in Section 15.04, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall
have been cured or waived; provided, however, that except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest
on any Security or on the payment of any sinking or purchase fund installment, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such
notice if

 

    49 

     

    

 

and so long as the trust committee of directors
and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the
security-holders; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in clause (c) of Section 6.01
no such notice to securityholders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section,
the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default
with respect to Securities of such series.

 

SECTION 7.15. Appointment of
Authenticating Agent.

 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating
agent or agents (which may be an affiliate or affiliates of the Company) with respect to one or more series of Securities which
shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue or upon
exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 2.09, and Securities so authenticated
shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee
or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on
behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating
agent. Each authenticating agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or Territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, which
(a) is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers or to otherwise act as authenticating agent, (b) is
subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State, Territorial or District of Columbia authority, and (c) shall have
at all times a combined capital and surplus of not less than $[50,000,000]. If such authenticating agent publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of
this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such authenticating agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus
as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such authenticating agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in this Section.

 

Any corporation into which an authenticating
agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which such authenticating agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of such authenticating agent, shall continue to be an authenticating agent, provided such corporation
shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or such authenticating agent.

 

An authenticating agent may resign at any
time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an
authenticating agent by giving written notice thereof to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice
of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of

 

    50 

     

    

 

this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor
authenticating agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall promptly give notice of such appointment to all holders
of Securities in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 15.04. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance
of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless eligible
under the provisions of this Section.

 

The Trustee agrees to pay to each authenticating
agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed
for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 7.06.

 

If an appointment with respect to one or more
series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

 

This is one of the Securities of the series
designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 

	 	U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 
	 	 	Authorized Signatory

 

If all of the Securities of a series may not
be originally issued at one time, and the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance
located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance,
the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing, shall appoint in accordance with this Section an authenticating agent (which,
if so requested by the Company, shall be such affiliate of the Company) having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the
Company with respect to such series of Securities, provided that the terms and conditions of such appointment are acceptable to
the Trustee.

 

ARTICLE 8

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

 

SECTION 8.01. Action by Securityholders.

 

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided
that the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all series may take any action
(including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any authorization, notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any
other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage have joined therein
may be evidenced by any

 

    51 

     

    

 

instrument or any number of instruments of
similar tenor executed by securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing.

 

In determining whether the holders of a specified
percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all series have taken any action (including the making of
any demand or request, the giving of any authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action),
(i) the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that may be counted in making such determination and that
shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be equal to the amount of the principal thereof that could be declared
to be due and payable upon an Event of Default pursuant to the terms of such Original Issue Discount Security at the time the taking
of such of such action is evidenced to the Trustee, and (ii) the principal amount of a Security denominated in a foreign currency
or currency unit shall be the U.S. dollar equivalent, determined as of the date of original issuance of such Security in accordance
with Section 2.03(b) hereof, of the principal amount of such Security.

 

SECTION 8.02. Proof of Execution
by Securityholders.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01,
7.02 and 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a securityholder or its agent or proxy, or of the holding by any person
of a Security, shall be sufficient and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company if made in accordance with such reasonable
rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee.

 

The principal amount and serial numbers of
Registered Securities held by any person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register.

 

The record of any securityholders’ meeting
shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06.

 

SECTION 8.03. Who Are Deemed
Absolute Owners.

 

Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or of the Trustee may deem the person in whose
name such Registered Security shall be registered upon the Security Register to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of
such Registered Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other
writing thereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) and, subject
to the provisions of Sections 2.05 and 2.07, any interest on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company
nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments
so made to any holder for the time being, or upon his order, shall be valid and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual
to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Security.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect
to any temporary or permanent global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company
or of the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Common Depositary
or a U.S. Depositary, as the case may be, or impair, as between a Common Depositary or a U.S. Depositary and holders of beneficial

 

    52 

     

    

 

interests in any temporary or permanent global
Security, as the case may be, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Common Depositary
or the U.S. Depositary as holder of such temporary or permanent global Security.

 

SECTION 8.04. Company-Owned
Securities Disregarded.

 

In determining whether the holders of the
required aggregate principal amount of Securities have provided any request, demand, authorization, notice, direction, consent
or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities, or by any person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor
on the Securities, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that
for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver, only Securities which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which
have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section if the pledgee shall establish
to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Securities and that the pledgee is not a person directly
or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor.
In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be afforded full
protection to the Trustee.

 

SECTION 8.05. Revocation of
Consents; Future Securityholders Bound.

 

At any time prior to the taking of any action
by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with
such action, any holder of a Security, the identifying number of which is shown by the evidence to be included in the Securities
the holders of which have consented to such action, may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its office and upon proof
of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any such
action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners
of such Security and of any Security issued upon registration of transfer of or in exchange or substitution therefor in respect
of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, irrespective of whether or
not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security. Any action taken by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company,
the Trustee and the holders of all the Securities.

 

SECTION 8.06. Record Date.

 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated
to, set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of holders of Securities of any series entitled to vote or consent
to any action by vote or consent or to otherwise take any action under this Indenture authorized or permitted by Section 6.12
or Section 6.13 or otherwise under this Indenture. Such record date shall be the later of the date 20 days prior to the first
solicitation of such consent or vote or other action or the date of the most recent list of holders of such Securities delivered
to the principal

 

    53 

     

    

 

corporate trust office of the Trustee pursuant
to Section 5.01 prior to such solicitation. If such a record date is fixed, those persons who were holders of such Securities
at the close of business on such record date shall be entitled to vote or consent or take such other action, or to revoke any such
action, whether or not such persons continue to be holders after such record date, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities
shall be computed as of such record date.

9

(c)          to
add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities
in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons, or to permit or facilitate
the issuance of Securities in uncertificated form, provided that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the
holders of Securities of any series in any material respect;

 

(d)          to

this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, or under any similar Federal statute hereafter enacted, and to add to this Indenture
such other provisions as may be expressly permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, excluding however, the provisions referred to in
Section 316(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act or any corresponding provision in any similar Federal statute hereafter enacted;

 

(e)          to
modify, eliminate or add to any of the provisions of this Indenture, provided that any such change or elimination (i) shall

indenture that is entitled to the benefit of such provision or (ii) shall not apply to any Security Outstanding;

 

(f)          to
cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective
or inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein or in any supplemental indenture; to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage
or pledge any property to or with the Trustee; or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under

With the consent (evidenced as provided in
Section 8.01) of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of
all series at the time Outstanding affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), the Company, when authorized
by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental

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 the Securities of such series under this
Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (1) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities,
or reduce the principal amount thereof or premium, if any, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon,
without the consent of the holder of each Security so affected, or (2) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the
consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of all Securities
then Outstanding.

 

Upon the request of the Company, accompanied
by a copy of a Board Resolution certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company authorizing the execution of
any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of securityholders as aforesaid,
the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects
the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

 

It shall not be necessary for the consent
of the securityholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be
sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

 

Promptly after the execution by the Company
and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10, the Company shall provide notice,
in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 15.04, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental
indenture, to all holders of Securities of each series so affected. Any failure of the Company so to provide such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

 

SECTION 10.03. Compliance with
Trust Indenture Act; Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

 

Any supplemental indenture executed pursuant
to the provisions of this Article 10 shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act, as then in effect. Upon the execution of any supplemental
indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 and subject to the provisions in any supplemental indenture relating to
the prospective application of such instrument, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance
therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee,
the Company and the holders of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall thereafter be determined,
exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions
of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and
all purposes.

 

    58 

     

    

 

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Sections 7.01 and 7.02, shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel as
conclusive evidence that any such supplemental indenture complies with the provisions of this Article 10.

 

SECTION 10.04. Notation on
Securities.

 

Securities of any series authenticated and
delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 may bear a notation in
form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. New Securities of any series so modified
as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors of the Company, to any modification of this Indenture contained

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE OR CONVEYANCE

 

SECTION 11.01. Company May
Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

 

The Company covenants that it will not merge

the Company) shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof or
the District of Columbia and such corporation shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any, on) and any interest on all the Securities, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance

In case of any such consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance and upon any such assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be
substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as
the party of the first part. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name
or in the name of the Company, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by
the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor corporation, instead of the Company, and subject
to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall make available
for delivery any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee
for authentication, and any Securities which such successor corporation thereafter shall

 

    59 

     

    

 

cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee
for that purpose. All of the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture
as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities
had been issued at the date of the execution thereof.

 

In case of any such consolidation, merger,
sale or conveyance such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued
as may be appropriate.

 

SECTION 11.03. Opinion of Counsel
and Officers’ Certificate to be Given Trustee.

 

The Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel
and Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, and any such assumption,

have been complied with.

and subject to Section 15.05, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture
with respect to the

 

    60 

     

    

 

Securities of such series. The Company agrees to reimburse the
Trustee for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly incurred by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture

unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal (and premium, if any, on) or interest shall have become due and
payable, shall be repaid to the Company by the Trustee or such paying agent on demand, and the holder of such Security shall thereafter,
as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for any payment which such holder may be entitled to collect and all
liability of the Trustee or any paying agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee
or such paying agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published
once, in an Authorized Newspaper in the City of New York and in such other city or cities as may be specified in such Securities,
on a Business Day, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 

SECTION 14.01. Applicability
of Article.

 

Unless, as specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b),
provision is made that either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of a series under Section 14.02 and (b) covenant
defeasance of the Securities of a series under Section 14.03 shall not apply to the Securities of a series, then the provisions
of such Section 14.02 and Section 14.03, together with Sections 14.04 and 14.05, shall be applicable to the Outstanding
Securities of all series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 14.

 

SECTION 14.02. Defeasance and
Discharge.

 

Subject to Section 14.05, the Company
may cause itself to be discharged from its obligations with respect to the Outstanding Securities of any series on and after the
date the conditions precedent set forth below are satisfied but subject to satisfaction of the conditions subsequent set forth
below (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series and to have satisfied all
its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the
expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive
until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of holders of Outstanding Securities of such series to
receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 14.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments of the
principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the Company’s obligations

Article 14. Subject to compliance with this Article 14, defeasance with respect to Securities of a series by the Company is permitted
under this Section 14.02 notwithstanding the

 

    62 

     

    

 

prior exercise of its rights under Section 14.03
with respect to the Securities of such series. Following a defeasance, payment of the Securities of such series may not be accelerated
because of an Event of Default.

 

SECTION 14.03. Covenant Defeasance.

 

The Company may cause itself to be released
from its obligations under any Sections applicable to Securities of a series that are determined pursuant to Section 2.03(b)
to be subject to this provision with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series on and after the date the conditions
precedent set forth below are satisfied but subject to satisfaction of the conditions subsequent set forth below (hereinafter,
“covenant defeasance”). For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities
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 Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or
by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this
Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

 

SECTION 14.04. Conditions to
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 

The following shall be the conditions precedent
or, as specifically noted below, subsequent to application of either Section 14.02 or Section 14.03 to the Outstanding

Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of
making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the holders of such
Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal
and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any
payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, sufficient, without reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay
and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, (i) the principal of and any premium and interest
on the Outstanding Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and (ii) any mandatory sinking
fund payments or analogous payments applicable to the Outstanding Securities of such series on the due dates thereof. Before such
a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date or dates
in accordance with Article 3 which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations”
means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of which its full faith and
credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of
the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United
States of America, which, in either

case, are not callable or redeemable
at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2)
of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government obligation or a specific payment of principal of or
interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt,
provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the
holder of such depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the
specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt;

 

(2)         No
Default, or event which after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Default with respect to the Securities of such series,
shall have happened and be continuing (A) on the date of such deposit or (B) insofar as subsections 6.01(a) and
(b) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 123rd day after the date of such deposit or, if longer, ending on
the day following the expiration of the longest preference period applicable to the Company in respect of such deposit (it being
understood that the condition in this clause (B) is a condition subsequent and shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration
of such period);

 

(3)         Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not (A) cause the Trustee for the Securities of such series to have a conflicting
interest as defined in Section 7.08 or for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Company
or (B) result in the trust arising from such deposit to constitute, unless it is qualified as, a regulated investment company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;

 

(4)         Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;

 

(5)         Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause any Securities of such series then listed on any registered national securities
exchange under the Exchange Act to be delisted;

 

(6)         In
the case of a defeasance under Section 14.02, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating
that (x) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) 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 shall confirm that, the holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize
income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such 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 defeasance had not occurred;

 

    64 

     

    

 

(7)         In
the case of covenant defeasance under Section 14.03, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal
income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred;

 

(8)         Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional terms, conditions or limitations which may
be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 2.03(b); and

 

(9)         The
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent and subsequent provided for in this Indenture relating to either the defeasance under Section 14.02 or the covenant
defeasance under Section 14.03, as the case may be, have been complied with.

(including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of the Outstanding Securities
of such series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any paying agent (but not including the Company acting as its own paying
agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal and any premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law.

 

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee
against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant
to Section 14.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations
held by it as provided in Section 14.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be
required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance, provided that the Trustee shall not be required
to liquidate any U.S. Government Obligations in order to comply with the provisions of this paragraph.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
if and to the extent the deposited money or U.S. Government Obligations (or the proceeds thereof) either (i) cannot be applied
by the Trustee in accordance with this Section because of a court order or (ii) are for any reason

 

    65 

     

    

 

insufficient in amount, then the Company’s
obligations to pay principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities of such series shall be reinstated to the extent
necessary to cover the deficiency on any due date for payment. In any such case, the Company’s interest in the deposited
money and U.S. Government Obligations (and proceeds thereof) shall be reinstated to the extent the Company’s payment obligations
are reinstated.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

SECTION 15.01. Benefits of
Indenture Restricted to Parties and Securityholders.

 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities,
expressed or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and
their successors and assigns and the holders of the Securities, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture
or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties
hereto and their successors and assigns and the holders of the Securities.

 

SECTION 15.02. Provisions Binding
on Company’s Successors.

 

All the covenants, stipulations, promises
and agreements in this Indenture contained by or in behalf of the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed
or not.

 

SECTION 15.03. Addresses for
Notices, etc., to Company and Trustee.

 

Any notice or demand which by any provisions
of this Indenture is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee or by the holders of Securities to or on the Company
may be given or served by postage prepaid first class mail addressed (until another address is filed by the Company with the Trustee),
as follows: The Chemours Company, 1007 Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19898, Attn: General Counsel. Any notice, direction,
request or demand by any securityholder to or upon the Trustee shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or made, for all
purposes, if given or made in writing at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee as set forth in Section 4.02.

 

SECTION 15.04. Notice to Holders
of Securities; Waiver.

 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
where this Indenture provides for notice of holders of Securities of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to holders
of Registered Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each holder of a Registered Security affected
by such event, at the address of such holder as it appears in the Security Register, or by electronic delivery, as applicable,
not earlier than the earliest date, and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 

In case by reason of the suspension of regular
mail service or electronic delivery or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice to holders
of Registered Securities by mail or electronic delivery, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the
Trustee shall constitute

 

    66 

     

    

 

sufficient notice to such holders for every
purpose hereunder. In any case where notice to holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such
notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular holder of a Registered Security shall affect the sufficiency
of such notice with respect to other holders of Registered Securities.

 

Where this Indenture provides for notice in
any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event,
and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by holders of Securities shall be filed with the Trustee,
but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published
notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

 

SECTION 15.05. Evidence of
Compliance with Conditions Precedent.

Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have
been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any,
have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents
is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate
or opinion need be furnished.

 

Each Officer’s Certificate and Opinion
of Counsel provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant
provided for in this Indenture shall include (1) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such
covenant or condition; (2) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the
statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (3) a statement that, in the opinion of such person,
he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not
such covenant or condition has been complied with; and (4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person,
such condition or covenant has been complied with.

 

SECTION 15.06. Legal Holidays.

 

In any case where the date of maturity of
interest on or principal of the Securities or the date fixed for redemption of any Securities shall be a Saturday or Sunday or
a legal holiday in New York, New York or Wilmington, Delaware or in such other place or places as the Company may designate pursuant
to Section 4.02, or a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York or Wilmington, Delaware or in such other place
or places are authorized by law or required by executive order to close, then payment of interest or principal (and premium, if
any) need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day

 

    67 

     

    

 

with the same force and effect as if made
on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

 

SECTION 15.07. Trust Indenture
Act to Control.

 

If and to the extent that any provision of
this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision included in this Indenture which is required to be included
in this Indenture by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

 

SECTION 15.08. Execution in
Counterparts.

 

This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

This Indenture and each Security shall be
deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of said State.

 

SECTION 15.10. WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL.

 

EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE AND THE HOLDERS,
BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE SECURITIES, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL

Act.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance
with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding
of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity
that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee.  The parties to this Indenture agree that they will
provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT
Act.

 

SECTION 15.12. Separability
Clause.

 

In case any provision in this Indenture or
in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

    68 

     

    

 

The Trustee, by its execution of this Indenture,
hereby accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided, upon the terms and conditions hereinabove set forth.
