AMENDMENT NO. 8             TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SERVICING AGREEMENT        This AMENDMENT NO. 8 TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SERVICING AGREEMENT  (this “Amendment”), dated as of August 17, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and among  GreenSky, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Servicer”), GreenSky Servicing, LLC, a  Georgia limited liability company (“GreenSky Servicing”), and Truist Bank (successor by  merger to SunTrust Bank), a North Carolina banking corporation (“Lender”).                                   WITNESSETH:        WHEREAS, Servicer, GreenSky Servicing and Lender previously entered into that certain  Second Amended and Restated Servicing Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or  otherwise modified from time to time, the “LSA”), dated as of December 31, 2016;        WHEREAS, Servicer, GreenSky Servicing and Lender desire to amend the LSA to modify  certain terms therein; and        WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 12.01 of the LSA, Servicer, GreenSky Servicing and  Lender agree to amend the LSA pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other  good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by  the parties hereto agree as follows:        Section 1. Definitions.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the  meanings given to them in the LSA.        Section 2. Amendments to the LSA.       a. Section 2.01(d) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted in lieu          thereof:              “(d)  To the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard and as agent for              Lender, and in Lender’s name, Servicer shall have authority to do all things on              behalf of Lender in connection with Servicing that are reasonably necessary or              desirable. Such authority includes, without limitation, filing chargebacks with the              applicable payment card network, enforcing contractual rights to reimbursement              or refunds from Program Merchants and Sponsors, and crediting Borrower(s)              accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, until a Loan is ninety (90) or more              calendar days past due, and thereafter until Lender has been compensated for the              related Portfolio Credit Loss, Servicer shall not, without the prior written approval              of Lender (which approval may be via email and may be for a single Loan or for 

 

     multiple Loans subject to similar circumstances), (i) modify the material terms of       the Loans, including, but not limited to, interest rate and maturity date, (ii) waive       Borrower payment delinquencies, (iii) outsource collection of any Loan to a third       party, except as permitted in Schedule B or to a Subsidiary of Servicer or (iv) take       formal action or institute a Proceeding with respect to a Loan, it being       acknowledged that Servicer may, without the prior written approval of Lender,       take such actions set forth in (i) and (ii) above with respect to a Loan that is ninety       (90) or more calendar days past due after Lender has been compensated for the       related Portfolio Credit Loss. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent legal title       of a Loan has been effectively transferred out of Lender’s name pursuant to the       terms of this Servicing Agreement, Servicer’s actions with respect to such Loan       shall (i) no longer be governed by this Servicing Agreement and (ii) not be       restricted.             (i)  Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, for Lender’s       benefit, Lender authorizes Servicer to settle all Borrower complaints and disputes       on behalf of, and in the name of, Lender, provided that any individual settlement       (a) does not involve a total amount (principal, Billed but unpaid interest, finance       charges, and fees) of more than $20,000.00 and (b) does not involve a signed       release from further liability of the Borrower or admission of liability of Lender       or Servicer as agent of Lender. In the event that any such settlement amount       would exceed $20,000.00 or require any such release or admission, Servicer will       obtain advance settlement authority from Lender. Regardless of settlement       amount, all settlement agreements and releases with respect to Loans for which       Lender holds legal title shall require the prior written consent of Lender and shall       be documented using settlement and release agreements in form and substance       satisfactory to Lender.             (ii) Servicer and Lender agree that Servicer’s modification of the terms       of a Loan, waiver of Borrower payment delinquencies pursuant to this Section       2.01(d) or other settlement shall have no effect upon the treatment of the       Outstanding Balance of such Loan as a Portfolio Credit Loss, unless Lender has       approved such modification, waiver, or other settlement and Servicer and Lender       have agreed that the Outstanding Balance of such Loan will not become a       Portfolio Credit Loss as a result of such modification, waiver, or other settlement       or the event being addressed by such modification, waiver, or other settlement       (which approval and agreement shall be in writing (which may be via email) and       may be for a single Loan or applied to multiple Loans subject to similar       circumstances).”  b. Section 3.01(f)(v) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted in     lieu thereof:       [*****]                                2

 

      Section 3.  Representations of Servicer, GreenSky Servicing and Lender.  Each of  Servicer, GreenSky Servicing and Lender hereby represents and warrants to the parties hereto  that as of the date hereof each of the representations and warranties contained in the LSA are true  and correct as of the date hereof and after giving effect to this Amendment (except to the extent  that such representations and warranties expressly refer to an earlier date, in which case they are  true and correct as of such earlier date).        Section 4. Conditions Precedent.  The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to  the receipt by the parties hereto of a fully executed counterpart of this Amendment from each  party.         Section 5. Amendment.  The parties hereto hereby agree that the provisions and  effectiveness of this Amendment shall apply to the LSA as of the date hereof.  Except as  amended by this Amendment, the LSA remains unchanged and in full force and effect.  This  Amendment shall constitute a transaction document.        Section 6. Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed by the parties in separate  counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such  counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The delivery of an  executed counterpart hereof by facsimile or .pdf shall constitute delivery of an executed  counterpart hereof.        Section 7. Captions.  The headings of the Sections of this Amendment are for  convenience of reference only and shall not modify, define, expand or limit any of the terms or  provisions of this Amendment.        Section 8. Successors and Assigns.  The terms of this Amendment shall be binding  upon, and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted  assigns.        Section 9. Severability.  Any provision of this Amendment which is prohibited or  unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such  prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions, and any such  prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable  such provision in any other jurisdiction.      SECTION 10. GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE  WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW  PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE  DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.                        [Signatures appear on following page.]                                      3

Section 2.03        
Denominations: Provisions for Payment. The Securities shall be issuable as registered Securities and in the denominations
of one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof, subject to Section 2.01(a)(13). The Securities of
a particular series shall bear interest payable on the dates and at the rate specified with respect to that series. Subject to
Section 2.01(a)(23), the principal of and the interest on the Securities of any series, as well as any premium thereon in
case of redemption or repurchase thereof prior to maturity, and any cash amount due upon conversion or exchange thereof, shall
be payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt,
at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.
Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months.

 

The interest installment
on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that
series shall be paid to the Person in whose name said Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close
of business on the regular record date for such interest installment. In the event that any Security of a particular series or
portion thereof is called for redemption and the redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest
Payment Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Security will be paid upon presentation and surrender of
such Security as provided in Section 3.03.

 

Any interest on any
Security that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of the same
series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant
regular record date by virtue of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at its election,
as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:

 

(1)              
The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their
respective Predecessor Securities) are registered in the Security Register at the close of business on a special record date for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing
of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the
same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in
this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall
not be more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt
by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date
and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
special record date therefor to be sent, to each Securityholder not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been sent as aforesaid, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered
in the Security Register on such special record date.

 

 

 

 

    	 	8	 

     

    

 

 

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

 

Unless otherwise set
forth in a Board Resolution or one or more indentures supplemental hereto establishing the terms of any series of Securities pursuant
to Section 2.01 hereof, the term “regular record date” as used in this Section with respect to a series of Securities
and any Interest Payment Date for such series shall mean either the fifteenth day of the month immediately preceding the month
in which an Interest Payment Date established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest
Payment Date is the first day of a month, or the first day of the month in which an Interest Payment Date established for such
series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a month, whether
or not such date is a Business Day.

 

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

 

Section 2.04        
Execution and Authentications. The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by one of its Officers. Signatures
may be in the form of a manual or facsimile signature.

 

The Company may use
the facsimile signature of any Person who shall have been an Officer (at the time of execution), notwithstanding the fact that
at the time the Securities shall be authenticated and delivered or disposed of such Person shall have ceased to be such an officer
of the Company. The Securities may contain such notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage.
Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication by the Trustee.

 

A Security shall not
be valid until authenticated manually by an authorized signatory of the Trustee, or by an Authenticating Agent. Such signature
shall be conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the
holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together
with a written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, signed by an Officer, and the Trustee
in accordance with such written order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

 

Upon the Company’s
delivery of any such authentication order to the Trustee at any time after the initial issuance of Securities under this Indenture,
the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected
in relying upon, (1) an Opinion of Counsel or reliance letter and (2) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent to the execution, authentication and delivery of such Securities are in conformity with the provisions of
this Indenture.

 

 

 

 

    	 	9	 

     

    

 

 

The Trustee shall not
be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s
own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee.

 

Section 2.05        
Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

 

(a)               
Securities of any series may be exchanged upon presentation thereof at the office or agency of the Company designated for
such purpose, for other Securities of such series of authorized denominations, and for a like aggregate principal amount, upon
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, all as provided in this Section.
In respect of any Securities so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office
or agency shall deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities of the same series that the Securityholder making the exchange
shall be entitled to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

(b)              
The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency designated for such purpose a register or registers
(herein referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Company shall register the Securities and the transfers of Securities as in this Article provided and which at all reasonable
times shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. The registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and transfer of Securities
as herein provided shall be appointed as authorized by Board Resolution or Supplemental Indenture (the “Security Registrar”).

 

Upon surrender for
transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose, the Company shall execute, the Trustee
shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities
of the same series as the Security presented for a like aggregate principal amount.

 

The Company initially
appoints the Trustee as initial Security Registrar for each series of Securities

 

All Securities presented
or surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer, as provided in this Section, shall be accompanied (if so required by the
Company or the Security Registrar) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the
Security Registrar, duly executed by the registered holder or by such holder’s duly authorized attorney in writing.

 

(c)               
Except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution, and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate,
or established in one or more indentures supplemental to this Indenture, no service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration
of transfer of Securities, or issue of new Securities in case of partial redemption of any series or repurchase, conversion or
exchange of less than the entire principal amount of a Security, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.06, Section 3.03(b)
and Section 9.04 not involving any transfer.

 

(d)              
The Company and the Security Registrar shall not be required (i) to issue, exchange or register the transfer of any
Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the sending of a notice of redemption
of less than all the Outstanding Securities of the same series and ending at the close of business on the day of such sending,
nor (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for redemption or
surrendered for repurchase, but not validly withdrawn, other than the unredeemed portion of any such Securities being redeemed
in part or not surrendered for repurchase, as the case may be. The provisions of this Section 2.05 are, with respect to any
Global Security, subject to Section 2.11 hereof.

 

 

 

 

    	 	10	 

     

    

 

 

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

 

Section 2.06        
Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities (printed, lithographed or typewritten) of any authorized denomination.
Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, but
with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the
Company. Every temporary Security of any series 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 of such series. Without unnecessary
delay the Company will execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any or all temporary Securities
of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor (without charge to the Securityholders), at the office or agency of the
Company designated for the purpose, and the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange for
such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of such series, unless the Company advises
the Trustee to the effect that definitive Securities need not be executed and furnished until further notice from the Company.
Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of such series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive
Securities of such series authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

Section 2.07        
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities. In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated
or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company (subject to the next succeeding sentence) shall execute, and upon the Company’s
request the Trustee (subject as aforesaid) shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a number
not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for
the Security so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Security shall furnish to the Company
and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction,
loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of the applicant’s Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may authenticate any such substituted
Security and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the Company. Upon the issuance of any
substituted Security, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

 

 

 

 

    	 	11	 

     

    

 

 

In case any Security
that has matured or is about to mature shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, instead of issuing
a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security)
if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as they may require to
save them harmless, and, in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Company and the Trustee of
the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof.

 

Every replacement Security
issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company whether
or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of the same series
duly issued hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) any and all other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary
with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

 

Section 2.08        
Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, repurchase, exchange, registration
of transfer or conversion shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying agent (or any other applicable agent), be delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and no Securities shall be issued
in lieu thereof except as expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. On request of the Company
at the time of such surrender, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company canceled Securities held by the Trustee. In the absence
of such request the Trustee may dispose of canceled Securities in accordance with its standard procedures and deliver a certificate
of disposition to the Company. If the Company shall otherwise acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not
operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

Section 2.09        
Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give or be construed
to give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the Securities any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant, condition or provision herein contained; all such covenants,
conditions and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders of the Securities.

 

Section 2.10        
Authenticating Agent. So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding there may be an Authenticating
Agent for any or all such series of Securities which the Trustee shall have the right to appoint. Said Authenticating Agent shall
be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, transfer or partial
redemption, repurchase or conversion thereof, 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. All references in this Indenture
to the authentication of Securities by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating Agent for such
series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation that has a combined capital and
surplus, as most recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it is organized
or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under such laws to conduct such
business and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately.

 

 

 

 

    	 	12	 

     

    

 

 

Any Authenticating
Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any
time (and upon request by the Company shall) terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination
to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility of any Authenticating
Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating
Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent pursuant hereto.

 

Section 2.11        
Global Securities.

 

(a)               
If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the Securities of a particular series are to be issued
as a Global Security, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.04, authenticate
and deliver, a Global Security that (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of, all of the Outstanding Securities of such series, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or its
nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instruction (or if
the Depositary names the Trustee as its custodian, retained by the Trustee), and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to
the following effect: “Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11 of the Indenture, this Security may be transferred,
in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee of such successor
Depositary.”

 

(b)              
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05, the Global Security of a series may be transferred, in whole but not
in part and in the manner provided in Section 2.05, only to another nominee of the Depositary for such series, or to a successor
Depositary for such series selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

(c)               
If at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as Depositary for such series or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing
under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed
by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, or
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Company has received a request from the Depositary or from the Trustee,
this Section 2.11 shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and subject
to Section 2.04, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without
coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security
of such series in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of
any series shall no longer be represented by a Global Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall no longer
apply to the Securities of such series. In such event the Company will execute and, subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee,
upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate evidencing such determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the
Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange
of the Global Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the Global
Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security
pursuant to this Section 2.11(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary,
pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver
such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

Section 2.12        
CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use),
and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that
any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities
or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed
on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS

 

Section 3.01        
Redemption. The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder on and after the dates and in accordance
with the terms established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

 

Section 3.02        
Notice of Redemption.

 

(a)               
In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case may be, a portion of the Securities
of any series in accordance with any right the Company reserved for itself to do so pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the Company
shall, or shall cause the Trustee to, give notice of such redemption to holders of the Securities of such series to be redeemed
by mailing, first class postage prepaid (or with regard to any Global Security held in book entry form, by electronic mail in accordance
with the applicable procedures of the Depositary), a notice of such redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days
before the date fixed for redemption of that series to such Securityholders, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities
to be redeemed. Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given,
whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security
of any series designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities
prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture,
the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction.

 

Each such notice of
redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers, if any), specify the date fixed for redemption
and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of the redemption
price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office or agency of the Company, upon presentation and surrender of
such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that from and
after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the redemption is from a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than
all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in part
shall specify the particular Securities to be so redeemed.

 

 

 

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

In case any Security
is to be redeemed in part only, the notice that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof
to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities
of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

 

(b)              
If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at least 45 days’
notice (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date fixed for redemption as to the aggregate
principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected, by
lot, on a pro rata basis, or in such other manner as the Company shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion and that may
provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof)
of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than $1,000, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter
promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers of the Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part. The Company may, if
and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by an Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying
agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner
set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may
deem advisable. In any case in which notice of redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security
Register, transfer books or other records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying
agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the provisions of this Section.

 

Section 3.03        
Payment Upon Redemption.

 

(a)               
If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities
of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such
notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption and
interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless
the Company shall default in the payment of such redemption price and accrued interest with respect to any such Security or portion
thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified
in the notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption price for such series, together with interest
accrued thereon to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an Interest Payment Date,
the interest installment payable on such date shall be payable to the registered holder at the close of business on the applicable
record date pursuant to Section 2.03).

 

(b)              
Upon presentation of any Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall deliver to the Securityholder thereof,
at the expense of the Company, a new Security of the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the unredeemed
portion of the Security so presented.

Section 3.04        
Sinking Fund. The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement
of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 for Securities of such series.

 

The minimum amount
of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking
fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is
herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series,
the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 3.05. Each sinking fund payment
shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series.

 

Section 3.05        
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a
series and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series that have been redeemed either at the election of the Company
pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the
terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities
of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series, provided
that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the
Trustee at the redemption price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount
of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

 

Section 3.06        
Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series
of Securities (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of the series,
the portion thereof, if any, that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.05
and the basis for such credit and will, together with such Officer’s Certificate, deliver to the Trustee any Securities to
be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking
fund payment date shall be selected in the manner specified in Section 3.02 and the Company shall cause notice of the redemption
thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 3.02. Such notice having
been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Section 3.03.

 

ARTICLE 4

Section 4.01        
Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of that series at the time and place and in the manner provided herein
and established with respect to such Securities. Payments of principal on the Securities may be made at the time provided herein
and established with respect to such Securities by U.S. dollar check drawn on and mailed to the address of the Securityholder entitled

    	 	16	 

     

    

 

 

Section 4.02        
Maintenance of Office or Agency. So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Company agrees to maintain
an office or agency with respect to each such series and at such other location or locations as may be designated as provided in
this Section 4.02, where (i) Securities of that series may be presented for payment, (ii) Securities of that series
may be presented as herein above authorized for registration of transfer and exchange, and (iii) notices and demands to or
upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be given or served, such designation to continue
with respect to such office or agency until the Company shall, by written notice signed by any officer authorized to sign an Officer’s
Certificate and delivered to the Trustee, designate some other office or agency for such purposes or any of them. If at any time
the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof,
such presentations, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby
appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, notices and demands. The Company initially appoints the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee as its paying agent with respect to the Securities.

 

Section 4.03        
Paying Agents.

 

(a)               
If the Company shall appoint one or more paying agents for all or any series of the Securities, other than the Trustee,
the Company will cause each such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree
with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section:

 

(1)              
that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest
on the Securities of that series (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor of such Securities)
in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto;

 

(2)              
that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor of such Securities) to make
any payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series when the same shall be due and
payable;

 

(3)              
that it will, at any time during the continuance of any failure referred to in the preceding paragraph (a)(2) above, upon
the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent; and

 

(4)              
that it will perform all other duties of paying agent as set forth in this Indenture.

 

(b)              
If the Company shall act as its own paying agent with respect to any series of the Securities, it will on or before each
due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay such principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming
due on Securities of that series until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and
will promptly notify the Trustee of such action, or any failure (by it or any other obligor on such Securities) to take such action.
Whenever the Company shall have one or more paying agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit with the paying agent a sum sufficient
to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or 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 this action or failure so to act.

 

 

 

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

 

(c)               
Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this
Section is subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, and (ii) the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any paying agent to pay, to the Trustee
all sums held in trust by the Company or such paying agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms and conditions
as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such paying agent; and, upon such payment by the Company or any paying
agent to the Trustee, the Company or such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

 

Section 4.04        
Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the

the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the holders of each series of Securities as of such regular record
date, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to furnish or cause to furnish such list at any time that the list shall
not differ in any respect from the most recent list furnished to the Trustee by the Company and (b) at such other times as
the Trustee may request in writing within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form
and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however, that, in either case,
no such list need be furnished for any series for which the Trustee shall be the Security Registrar.

 

Section 5.02        
Preservation Of Information; Communications With Securityholders.

 

(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 Securities contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 and as to the names
and addresses of holders of Securities received by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar (if acting in such capacity).

 

(b)              
The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

(c)               
Securityholders may communicate as provided in Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with other Securityholders
with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and, in connection with any such communications, the

The Company will at all times comply with Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Company covenants and agrees
to provide (which delivery may be via electronic mail) to the Trustee within 30 days, after the Company files the same with the
Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, 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) that the Company is required to file
with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, the Company shall
not be required to deliver to the Trustee any correspondence filed with the Commission or any materials for which the Company has
sought and received confidential treatment by the Commission; and provided further, that so long as such filings by the Company
are available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (EDGAR), or any successor system,
such filings shall be deemed to have been filed with the Trustee for purposes hereof without any further action required by the
Company. For the avoidance of doubt, a failure by the Company to file annual reports, information and other reports with the Commission
within the time period prescribed thereof by the Commission shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 5.03.

 

(b)              
Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 5.03 is for informational purposes only
and the information and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information
contained therein, or determinable from information contained therein including the Company’s compliance with any of their
covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate). The Trustee is
under no duty to examine any such reports, information or documents delivered to the Trustee or filed with the Commission via EDGAR
to ensure compliance with the provision of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of the information or the

REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

Section 6.01        
Events of Default.

 

(a)               
Whenever used herein with respect to Securities of a particular series, “Event of Default” means any one or
more of the following events that has occurred and is continuing:

 

(1)              
the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Securities of that series, as and when
the same shall become due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 90 days; provided, however, that a valid extension
of an interest payment period by the Company in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute
a default in the payment of interest for this purpose;

 

(2)              
the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of that series as
and when the same shall become due and payable whether at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise, or in any payment
required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series; provided, however, that a valid extension of
the maturity of such Securities in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute a default
in the payment of principal or premium, if any;

 

(3)              
the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements with respect to that series contained in
this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to that series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof (other than
a covenant or agreement that has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of Securities
other than such series) for a period of 90 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be
remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, shall have been given to the Company by the
Trustee, by registered or certified mail, or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of the Securities of that series at the time Outstanding;

 

(4)              
the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case, (ii) consents
to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of
it or for all or substantially all of its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

 

(5)              
a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order under any Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against the Company
in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all or substantially all of its property or (iii) orders
the liquidation of the Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days.

 

(b)              
In each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above), unless the principal
of all the Securities of that 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 that series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by such Securityholders), may declare the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid
interest on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become
and shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above occurs, the principal
of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of that series shall automatically be immediately due and payable without
any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the holders of the Securities.

 

 

 

 

    	 	20	 

     

    

 

 

(c)               
At any time after the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of that series
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 holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that
series then Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and
its consequences if: (i) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments
of interest upon all the Securities of that series and the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any and all Securities of that
series that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and, to
the extent that such payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate per annum
expressed in the Securities of that series to the date of such payment or deposit) and the amount payable to the Trustee under
Section 7.06, and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the Indenture with respect to such series, other than the
nonpayment of principal on (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on Securities of that series that shall not
have become due by their terms, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.06. No such rescission and annulment
shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

(d)              
In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right with respect to Securities of that series under this Indenture
and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason
or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceedings,
the Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies
and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

 

Section 6.02        
Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 

(a)               
The Company covenants that (i) in case it shall default in the payment of any installment of interest on any of the
Securities of a series, or in any payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series as
and when the same shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 90 days, or (ii) in
case it shall default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of a series when the same
shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of a series or upon redemption or upon declaration or
otherwise then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities
of that series, the whole amount that then shall have been become due and payable on all such Securities for principal (and premium,
if any) or interest, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent
that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum
expressed in the Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06.

 

 

 

 

    	 	21	 

     

    

 

 

(b)              
If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of
an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection
of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any
such judgment or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of that series and collect the moneys adjudged
or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law or equity out of the property of the Company or other obligor upon the Securities
of that series, wherever situated.

 

(c)               
In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition
or judicial proceedings affecting the Company, or its creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power to intervene in such
proceedings and take any action therein that may be permitted by the court and shall (except as may be otherwise provided by law)
be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
of the Trustee and of the holders of Securities of such series allowed for the entire amount due and payable by the Company under
the Indenture at the date of institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by the
Company after such date, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and
to distribute the same after the deduction of the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee
or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the holders of Securities of such series to make such
payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Securityholders,
to pay to the Trustee any amount due it under Section 7.06.

 

(d)              
All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the terms established with respect to
Securities of that series, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of such Securities, or the production thereof
at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 payment to the Trustee of
any amounts due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Securities of such series.

 

In case of an Event
of Default hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture
by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either
at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained
in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right
vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

 

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

 

Section 6.03        
Application of Moneys Collected. Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article with respect to a particular
series of Securities shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution

notation thereon of the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

 

 

 

 

    	 	22	 

     

    

 

 

FIRST: To the payment
of costs and expenses of collection and of all amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06;

 

SECOND: To the payment
of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, 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 premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

 

THIRD: To the payment
of the remainder, if any, to the Company or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto.

 

Section 6.04        
Limitation on Suits. No holder of any Security of any series shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision
of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture
or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless (i) such Securityholder previously
shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the Securities
of such series specifying such Event of Default, as hereinbefore provided; (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute
such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder; (iii) such Securityholder or Securityholders shall have
offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with
such request; (iv) the Trustee for 90 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have failed
to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and (v) during such 90 day period, the holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Securities of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

 

Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary or any other provisions of this Indenture, the right of any holder of any Security to receive
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security, as therein provided, on or after the respective
due dates expressed in such Security (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), or to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment on or after such respective dates or redemption date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent
of such holder and by accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and covenanted by the taker and holder
of every Security of such series with every other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Securities
of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other of such Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or
preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for
the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of Securities of such series. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions
of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or
in equity.

 

 

 

 

    	 	23	 

     

    

 

 

Section 6.05        
Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

 

(a)               
Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all powers and remedies given by this Article to the Trustee or to the
Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies
available to the Trustee or the holders of the Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or
observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to such Securities.

 

(b)              
No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon
any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a
waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.04, every power and remedy
given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall
be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Securityholders.

 

Section 6.06        
Control by Securityholders. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series
at the time Outstanding, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee
with respect to such series; provided, however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this
Indenture or subject the Trustee in its sole discretion to personal liability. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01,
the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer
or officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed, subject to the Trustee’s duties under the Trust Indenture
Act, would involve the Trustee in personal liability or might be unduly prejudicial to the Securityholders not involved in the
proceeding. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding affected
thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities of such series
waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained herein or established pursuant to Section 2.01
with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest
on, any of the Securities of that series as and when the same shall become due by the terms of such Securities otherwise than by
acceleration (unless such default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal
and any premium has been deposited with the Trustee (in accordance with Section 6.01(c)). Upon any such waiver, the default
covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of
the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver
shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section 6.07        
Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Securities by such holder’s
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 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 and expenses, 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 Securityholder, or group of Securityholders,
holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any
Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such
series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to this Indenture.

ARTICLE 7

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

Section 7.01        
Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

 

(a)               
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing
of all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with
respect to the Securities of such series such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and
no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities
of a series has occurred (that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise with respect to Securities of that 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 or her own affairs.

 

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

 

(i)                
prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing or waiving
of all such Events of Default with respect to that series that may have occurred:

 

(A)             
the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of such series be determined solely by the
express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the Securities of such series 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; and

 

(B)             
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may with respect to the Securities of such series conclusively
rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions
that by any 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;

 

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

 

 

 

 

    	 	25	 

     

    

 

 

(iii)            
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 not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding
relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any
trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series;

 

(iv)            
none of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if
there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the
terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it;

 

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

 

(vi)            
The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty of the Trustee;
and

 

(vii)          
No Trustee shall have any duty or responsibility for any act or omission of any other Trustee appointed with respect to
a series of Securities hereunder.

 

Section 7.02        
Certain Rights of Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

 

(a)               
The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security 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 Board Resolution
or an instrument signed in the name of the Company by any authorized Officer of the Company (unless other evidence in respect thereof
is specifically prescribed herein);

 

(c)               
The Trustee may consult with counsel and the opinion or written advice of such counsel or, if requested, any Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted 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 Securityholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall
have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities
that may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to a series of the Securities (that has not been cured or waived), to exercise with
respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to 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 or her own
affairs;

 

 

 

 

    	 	26	 

     

    

 

 

(e)               
The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken 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;

 

(f)                
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, consent, order, approval, bond, security, or other papers or documents
or inquire as to the performance by the Company of one of its covenants under this Indenture, unless requested in writing so to
do by the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the particular series affected
thereby (determined as provided in Section 8.04); provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee
of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require
security or indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against such costs, expenses or liabilities as a condition to so proceeding.
The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the
Company upon demand;

 

(g)              
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;

 

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

 

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

 

(j)                
The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail,
facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that such instructions or directions shall
be signed by an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. If the party elects to give the
Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects
to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee
shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and
compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction.
The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit
instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions,
and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties. The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate
setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to furnish the Trustee with Officer’s
Certificates, Company Orders and any other matters or directions pursuant to this Indenture.

 

 

 

 

    	 	27	 

     

    

 

 

(k)              
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right
to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and under the
Securities, and each agent, custodian or other person employed to act under this Indenture.

 

(l)                
The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default constituting
the failure to pay the interest on, or the principal of, the Securities if the Trustee also serves the paying agent for such Securities)
until the Trustee shall have received written notification in the manner set forth in this Indenture or a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee shall have obtained actual knowledge.

 

Section 7.03        
Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or Securities.

 

(a)               
The recitals contained herein and in the Securities shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes
no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any statement in any registration statement,
prospectus, or any other document in connection with the sale of Securities. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any rating
on the Securities or any action or omission of any rating agency.

 

(b)              
The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities.

 

(c)               
The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any of the Securities or of the proceeds
of such Securities, or for the use or application of any moneys paid over by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this
Indenture or established pursuant to Section 2.01, or for the use or application of any moneys received by any paying agent
other than the Trustee.

 

Section 7.04        
May Hold Securities. The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, 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, paying agent or Security
Registrar.

 

Section 7.05        
Moneys Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, all moneys received by the Trustee 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. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received
by it hereunder except such as it may agree with the Company to pay thereon.

 

Section 7.06        
Compensation and Reimbursement.

 

(a)               
The Company shall pay to the Trustee for each of its capacities hereunder from time to time compensation for its services
as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited
by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s
agents and counsel.

 

 

 

 

    	 	28	 

     

    

 

 

(b)              
The Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder against any loss, liability or expense
(including the cost of defending itself and including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and
counsel) incurred by it except as set forth in Section 7.06(c) in the exercise or performance of its powers, rights or duties
under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.
The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one separate counsel and
the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without
its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees,
shareholders and agents of the Trustee.

 

(c)               
The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or by any
officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through negligence or bad faith.

 

(d)              
To ensure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities
on all funds or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of or interest on particular
Securities. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4)
or (5), the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for services in connection
therewith are to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. The provisions of this Section 7.06 shall
survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 

Section 7.07        
Reliance on Officer’s Certificate. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration
of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it reasonably necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established
prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action 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 Officer’s 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 to be taken
by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

 

Section 7.08        
Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest”
within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply
with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.

 

Section 7.09        
Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities issued
hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America
or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or other Person permitted to act as trustee
by the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least
fifty million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or District
of Columbia authority.

 

 

 

 

    	 	29	 

     

    

 

 

If such corporation
or other Person 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 or other Person
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Company
may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve
as Trustee. 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.

 

Section 7.10        
Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)               
The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed may at any time resign with respect to the Securities of one or more series
by giving written notice thereof to the Company and the Securityholders of such series. Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series by written instrument, in duplicate,
executed by order of the Board of Directors, 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 sending of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series, or any Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide
holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition
any such court 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 one of the following shall occur:

 

(i)                
the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 7.08 after written request therefor by the Company
or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months; or

 

(ii)              
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder; or

 

(iii)            
the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy
proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, 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 all Securities and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed
by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the
successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may,
on behalf of that holder and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and
prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 

 

 

 

    	 	30	 

     

    

 

 

(c)               
The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding may at any
time remove the Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee
for such series with the consent of the Company.

 

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

 

(e)               
Any successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more
series or all of such series, and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular
series.

 

Section 7.11

(a)               
In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor trustee
so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but,
on the request of the Company or the successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of any amounts due to it pursuant
to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights,
powers, and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and
money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all)
series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall
execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall
contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor trustee all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor trustee relates, (ii) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable
to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those
series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) 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, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder
separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible
for any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental
indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring
Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates
have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested
in the Trustee under this Indenture, and each such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture,
the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which
the appointment of such successor trustee relates.

(c)               
Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section, as the case may be.

 

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

 

(e)               
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Company shall send notice of the
succession of such trustee hereunder to the Securityholders. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense
of the Company.

 

Section 7.12        
Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee,
including the administration of the trust created by this Indenture, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided
that such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 7.09,
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        
Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust
Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has
resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent included therein.

 

Section 7.14        
Notice of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if such Event of Default is known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall send to each Securityholder in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c)
of the Trust Indenture Act notice of the Event of Default within the earlier of 90 days after it occurs and 30 days after it is
known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or written notice of it is received by the Trustee, unless such Event of Default
has been cured; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any) or interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Responsible

ARTICLE 8

CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Section 8.01        
Evidence of Action by Securityholders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a majority or specified
percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series may take any action (including the making of
any demand or request, the giving of any 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 majority or specified percentage of that series have joined therein may be evidenced
by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such holders of Securities of that series in person
or by agent or proxy appointed in writing.

 

If the Company shall
solicit from the Securityholders of any series any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series
for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of
record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether
Securityholders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities of that series have authorized or agreed or consented to
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities
of that series shall be computed as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by
such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of
this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

 

Section 8.02        
Proof of Execution by Securityholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any
instrument by a Securityholder (such proof will not require notarization) or his or her agent or proxy and proof of the holding
by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:

 

(a)               
The fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in any reasonable manner acceptable
to the Trustee.

 

(b)              
The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security
Registrar thereof.

 

The Trustee may require
such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.

 

Section 8.03        
Who May be Deemed Owners. Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the
Trustee, any paying agent and any Security Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name such Security shall be registered
upon the books of the Security Registrar as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue
and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose
of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 2.03) interest on such
Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

 

 

 

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

 

Section 8.04        
Certain Securities Owned by Company Disregarded. In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal
amount of Securities of a particular series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, the Securities
of that series that are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series or by any Person directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that
series 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 direction, consent or waiver, only Securities of such
series that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. The Securities so owned that 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 so to act with respect to 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 case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to
the Trustee.

 

Section 8.05        
Actions Binding on Future Securityholders. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided
in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder of a Security of that
series that 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, 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 in exchange therefor, on registration
of transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security.
Any action taken by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series
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 of that series.

solely for the benefit of such series), to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and the continuance, of a default in any such
additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event of Default, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred
upon the Company;

 

(e)

to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor trustee; or

 

(i)                
to comply with any requirements of the Commission or any successor in connection with the qualification of this Indenture
under the Trust Indenture Act.

 

The Trustee is hereby
authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and to make any further appropriate agreements
and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture
that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

Any supplemental indenture
authorized by the provisions of this Section may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders
of any of the Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02.

 

Section 9.02        
Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Securityholders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 8.01)
of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series affected by such supplemental

holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture.

 

 

 

 

    	 	35	 

     

    

 

 

It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Securityholders of any series affected thereby 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.

 

Section 9.03        
Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this
Article or of Section 10.01, this Indenture shall, with respect to such series, be and be deemed to be modified and amended

which such series may be listed, as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities of that series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, to any modification of this
Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered
in exchange for the Securities of that series then Outstanding.

the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders
required to consent thereto 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. The Trustee,
subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, shall receive an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive

such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel need not be provided in connection with the execution of a supplemental
indenture that establishes the terms of a series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Company
shall (or shall direct the Trustee to) send a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture,
to the Securityholders of all series affected thereby .as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. Any failure

Section 13.11    
Separability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series
shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provisions of this Indenture or of such Securities, but this Indenture and such Securities shall be
construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.

 

Section 13.12    
Compliance Certificates. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year
during which any Securities of any series were outstanding, an officer’s certificate stating whether or not the signers know

executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company that a review has been conducted
of the activities of the Company and the Company’s performance under this Indenture and that the Company has complied with
