 ARTICLE 1 

MODIFICATIONS TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE
INDENTURE 
 Section 1.01 Amount Unlimited; Issuable in Series. With respect to the Securities to be
issued under the Indenture on or after the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, unless any such Security is a further issuance of Securities with the same terms as Securities originally issued prior to the date of this Fifth
Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, the second paragraph of Section 2.03 of the Indenture, which reads as follows, shall be deleted in its entirety: 

“The Securities constitute unsecured obligations of the Issuer and are subordinated to (i) the claims of creditors of the Issuer that
are not subordinated pursuant to applicable law, including claims against the Issuer under non-preferred senior unsecured debt instruments within the meaning of Section 46f(6) sentence 1 of the German
Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) or any successor provision and (ii) other obligations of the Issuer which are mandatorily preferred by law (such claims and obligations in (i) and (ii), the “Priority Claims”). The
Securities may be issued in one or more series and each such series shall rank equally and pari passu with all other unsecured and subordinated debt (it being understood that no Priority Claims constitute subordinated obligations) of the
Issuer, except as otherwise provided by applicable law or the terms of any other indebtedness, and in particular, if such debt is expressed to rank junior to the Securities, then the Securities shall rank senior to such junior debt, but junior to
the Priority Claims. For the avoidance of doubt, Senior Indebtedness shall constitute Priority Claims; the Securities are subordinated to, and shall rank junior to, Senior Indebtedness. There shall be established in one or more Board Resolutions, in
one or more Officers’ Certificates detailing such establishment or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the initial issuance of Securities of any series:” 

and shall be replaced with the following: 

“The Securities constitute unsecured and subordinated obligations of the Issuer, ranking pari passu among themselves and, subject
to applicable law from time to time, pari passu with all other equally subordinated obligations of the Issuer under other instruments issued as, and qualifying from time to time as, Tier 2 capital within the meaning of Article 63 of
the CRR. In the event Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer or in the event of the dissolution, liquidation, insolvency 

  
 2 

 
(Insolvenzverfahren), composition or other proceedings for the avoidance of insolvency of, or against, the Issuer, the obligations under the Securities shall be fully subordinated to all
obligations which do not qualify as own funds within the meaning of the CRR; in any such event, no amounts shall be payable in respect of the Securities until all senior ranking obligations in accordance with this provision have been satisfied in
full. Obligations which rank senior to the obligations under the Securities include (i) all claims of unsubordinated creditors of the Issuer (including claims against the Issuer under its unsecured and unsubordinated non-preferred debt instruments within the meaning of Section 46f(6) sentence 1 of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) (including obligations of the Issuer under any such debt instruments that
were issued by the Issuer before July 21, 2018 and that are subject to Section 46f(9) sentence 2 of the German Banking Act) (or any successor provision thereof)), (ii) the claims specified in Section 39(1) nos. 1 to 5
of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) (or any successor provision thereof) and (iii) contractually subordinated obligations of the Issuer within the meaning of Section 39(2) of the German Insolvency Code (or any successor
provision thereof) which do not qualify as own funds (within the meaning of the CRR) at the time Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer or in the event of a dissolution, liquidation, insolvency, composition or other proceedings for the
avoidance of insolvency of, or against, the Issuer (any such senior-ranking claims and obligations, the “Priority Claims”). 

The Securities may be issued in one or more series and each such series shall rank equally and pari passu with all other unsecured and
equally subordinated debt (it being understood that no Priority Claims constitute such equally subordinated obligations) of the Issuer, except as otherwise provided by applicable law or the terms of any other indebtedness, and in particular, if such
debt is expressed to rank junior to the Securities, then the Securities shall rank senior to such junior debt, but junior to the Priority Claims, except as otherwise provided by applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, Senior Indebtedness shall
constitute Priority Claims; the Securities are subordinated to, and shall rank junior to, Senior Indebtedness. There shall be established in one or more Board Resolutions, in one or more Officers’ Certificates detailing such establishment or in
one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the initial issuance of Securities of any series:”. 
 Section 1.02
Securities Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness. With respect to the Securities to be issued under the Indenture on or after the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, unless any such Security is a further issuance of
Securities with the same terms as Securities originally issued prior to the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, Section 13.01 of the Indenture, which reads as follows, shall be deleted in its entirety: 

  
 3 

 “The Securities (including any Coupons relating thereto) constitute the direct and
unconditional obligations of the Issuer and are subordinated to the Priority Claims. The obligations of the Issuer under the Securities shall rank without preference or priority among themselves. The obligations of the Issuer under the terms of the
Securities, whether on account of principal, interest or otherwise, are subordinated to the Priority Claims of the Issuer and will rank junior to the claims of the holders of all Priority Claims of the Issuer in the event of any Resolution Measure
imposed on the Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency (Insolvenzverfahren), suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation (Liquidation) or winding up of the Issuer, but will rank at least pari passu with the
claims of the holders of all other subordinated indebtedness (it being understood that no Priority Claims constitute subordinated obligations) of the Issuer, except as otherwise provided by applicable law or the terms of any such other indebtedness,
and in particular, they shall rank in priority to the claims of the holders of any subordinated indebtedness of the Issuer that by its express terms is stated to rank junior to the Securities. In the event of any Resolution Measure imposed on the
Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency, suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Issuer, no amounts will be payable under the Securities until the claims of all creditors of Priority Claims have been
satisfied in full. As used in this Section 5.01, Resolution Measure shall have the meaning set forth in the Third Supplemental Subordinated Indenture dated December 1, 2017. 

For the avoidance of doubt, Senior Indebtedness shall constitute Priority Claims. The Securities are subordinated to, and shall rank junior to,
Senior Indebtedness. In the event of any Resolution Measure imposed on the Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency, suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Issuer, no amounts will be payable under the
Securities until the claims of all creditors of Senior Indebtedness have been satisfied in full.” 
 and shall be replaced with the following: 

“The Securities (including any Coupons relating thereto) constitute the direct and unconditional obligations of the Issuer and are
subordinated to the Priority Claims. The obligations of the Issuer under the Securities shall rank without preference or priority among themselves. The obligations of the Issuer under the terms of the Securities, whether on account of principal,
interest or otherwise, are subordinated to the Priority Claims of the Issuer and will rank junior to the claims of the holders of all Priority Claims of the Issuer in the event any Resolution 

  
 4 

 
Measures are imposed on the Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency (Insolvenzverfahren), suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation (Liquidation) or winding up of
the Issuer, but will rank at least pari passu with the claims of the holders of all other subordinated indebtedness that from time to time constitutes own funds within the meaning of the CRR (it being understood that no Priority Claims
constitute such subordinated obligations) of the Issuer, except as otherwise provided by applicable law or the terms of any such other indebtedness, and in particular, they shall rank in priority to the claims of the holders of any subordinated
indebtedness of the Issuer that by its express terms is stated to rank junior to the Securities, except as otherwise provided by applicable law. In the event any Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or
insolvency, suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Issuer, no amounts will be payable under the Securities until the claims of all creditors of Priority Claims have been satisfied in full. As used in this
Section 13.01, Resolution Measure shall have the meaning set forth in the Third Supplemental Subordinated Indenture dated December 1, 2017. 

For the avoidance of doubt, Senior Indebtedness shall constitute Priority Claims. The Securities are subordinated to, and shall rank junior to,
Senior Indebtedness. In the event any Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer or in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency, suspension of payments, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Issuer, no amounts will be payable under the
Securities until the claims of all creditors of Senior Indebtedness have been satisfied in full.” 
 Section 1.03 Special
Provisions Relating to Regulatory Capital Treatment. With respect to the Securities to be issued under the Indenture on or after the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, unless any such Security is a further issuance of
Securities with the same terms as Securities originally issued prior to the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, Section 13.02 of the Indenture, which reads as follows, shall be deleted in its entirety: 

“If any series of Securities qualifies for regulatory banking capital purposes as (i) long term subordinated debt
(längerfristige nachrangige Verbindlichkeiten) under Section 10(5a) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) (“Lower Tier 2 Capital”) and/or (ii), once CRD 4/CRR have taken
effect in the Federal Republic of Germany, as Tier 2 capital under CRD 4/CRR (such Tier 2 capital together with Lower Tier 2 Capital, “Tier 2 Capital”), in each case, in compliance with all
capital adequacy guidelines, Capital Regulations or other policies of the Relevant Regulator, the Issuer may elect to treat the proceeds of such series of Securities as Tier 2 Capital. Accordingly, in

  
 5 

 
addition to the subordination of the obligations under the Securities provided for in Section 13.01, the following provisions shall apply to the Securities. Additional provisions, if and as
required for any series of Securities to be treated as Tier 2 Capital, shall be set forth in an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto. 
  

	 	(a)	 The claims under the Securities shall not be set off against any claims of the Issuer. 

 

	 	(b)	 No collateral of whatever kind shall at any time be provided by the Issuer or any other person securing the
rights of Holders under the Securities, and any collateral that, notwithstanding the aforementioned, may have been provided in the past or will be provided in the future by the Issuer or any third party shall not secure the claims under the
Securities. 

  

	 	(c)	 No subsequent agreement shall limit, or shall have the effect of limiting, the subordination of the Securities
as provided for herein or amend the maturity date or redemption date of any of the Securities to an earlier date or shorten any applicable notice period. 

  

	 	(d)	 Any redemption of any series of Securities prior to their stated maturity shall be subject to receipt by the
Bank of the prior written approval of the Relevant Regulator, if then required under applicable law, capital adequacy guidelines, regulations or policies of the Relevant Regulator.” 

and shall be replaced with the following: 

“If any series of Securities qualifies for regulatory banking capital purposes as (i) long term subordinated debt
(längerfristige nachrangige Verbindlichkeiten) under Section 10(5a) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) (“Lower Tier 2 Capital”) and/or (ii), once CRD 4/CRR have taken
effect in the Federal Republic of Germany, as Tier 2 capital under CRD 4/CRR (such Tier 2 capital together with Lower Tier 2 Capital, “Tier 2 Capital”), in each case, in compliance with all
capital adequacy guidelines, Capital Regulations or other policies of the Relevant Regulator, the Issuer may elect to treat the proceeds of such series of Securities as Tier 2 Capital. Accordingly, in addition to the subordination of the
obligations under the Securities provided for in Section 13.01, the following provisions shall apply to the Securities. Additional provisions, if and as required for any series of Securities to be treated as Tier 2 Capital, shall be set forth
in an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto. 

  
 6 

	 	(a)	 The claims under the Securities shall not be set off against any claims of the Issuer. 

 

	 	(b)	 No collateral or guarantee of whatever kind is, or shall at any time be provided by the Issuer or any other
person securing the rights of Holders under the Securities, and any collateral or guarantee, as the case may be, that, notwithstanding the aforementioned, may have been provided in the past or will be provided in the future by the Issuer or any
third party shall not secure the claims under the Securities. 

  

	 	(c)	 No subsequent agreement shall limit, or shall have the effect of limiting, the subordination of the Securities
as provided for herein or amend the maturity date or redemption date of any of the Securities to an earlier date or shorten any applicable notice period. If the Securities are redeemed or repurchased otherwise than in accordance with the terms of
the Securities, then the amounts paid must be returned to the Issuer irrespective of any agreement to the contrary. 

  

	 	(d)	 Any redemption of any series of Securities prior to their stated maturity shall be subject to receipt by the
Bank of the prior written approval of the Relevant Regulator and any redemption shall not occur before five years after the date of issuance, except where the conditions set out in Article 78(4) of the CRR are met.” 

Section 1.04 Counterparts. With respect to the Securities to be issued under the Indenture on or after the date of this Fifth
Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, unless any such Security is a further issuance of Securities with the same terms as Securities originally issued prior to the date of this Fifth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture, Section 11.09 of the
Indenture, which reads as follows, shall be deleted in its entirety: 
 “This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.” 
 and shall be replaced with the
following: 
 “The Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including .pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other

 7 

 
individual person executing any such counterparts via electronic signature on behalf of such party and has and will maintain sufficient records of the same. This Indenture shall become effective
when each party shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties to this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 2

to such matters in one or several documents.

Any
certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or

respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation
by, counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
Officer or Officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Company, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where
any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions
or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Section
1.04.     Acts of Holders;
Record Dates. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted
by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where
it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof
of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture
and

    	8 

    	 

    

(subject
to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

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

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

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

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

The
Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled
to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted
by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, provided that the Company may not set a
record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving, making or taking of any notice,
declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the
Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to give,
make or take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, however,
that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless given, made or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by
Holders of the requisite

    	9 

    	 

    

principal
amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the
Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect),
and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action given, made or taken by Holders of the requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is given, made or taken. Promptly after
any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities
of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.05 and Section 1.06.

The
Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled
to join in the giving, making or taking of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section
5.02, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in
Section 5.11, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph,
the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to give, make
or take such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided,
however, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless given, made or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration
Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has
previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action
by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action
given, made or taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date
such action is given, made or taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s
expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given
to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.05
and Section 1.06.

With
respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as
the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day;
provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party
hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, on
or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant
to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after
such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date to an earlier
day as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the
applicable record date.

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

Section
1.05.     Notices, Etc.,
to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other
document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, (1) the Trustee by any
Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing (which
may be by facsimile transmission) to or with the Trustee at [_________________], Attention: [_________________], facsimile: [_____________]
or any other address previously furnished in writing to the Company and the Holders by the Trustee or (2) the Company by the Trustee
or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and

Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless

event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the
earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither
the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency
of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived
in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent
of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent
to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

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

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

Section
1.07.     Conflict with
Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act which
is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of
this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter
provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

or not.

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

Section
1.11.     Benefits of
Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this

of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that such provision shall
apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any), or conversion of such Security need not
be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with
the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Maturity, or on such date for
conversion, as the case may be.

Section
1.14.     No
Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret

the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including consents obtained in connection with
a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of all Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected (considered
together as one class for this purpose and such Securities to be affected potentially being Securities of the same or different
series and, with respect to any series, potentially comprising fewer than all the Securities of such series), except as may otherwise
be provided pursuant to the Indenture for all or any specific Securities of any series. The Indenture also contains provisions
(i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or
tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of the Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected under the Indenture (considered
together as one class for this purpose and such affected Securities potentially being Securities of the same or different series

the Holders of all Securities so affected, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii)
permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender

considered separately for this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults
under the Indenture with respect to such series and their consequences, in the case of Clause (i) or (ii), except as may otherwise
be provided pursuant to the Indenture for all or any specific Securities of any series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder
of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security
issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent
or waiver is made upon this Security.

As
provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute

shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered
the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have
failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing

or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The
Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple
thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable
for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

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

the Indenture, and immediately before and thereafter no Event of Default exists and all other conditions of the Indenture are
satisfied, the predecessor entity will be released from those obligations.

This
Security and the Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York, without regard
to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

All
terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

one or more dates prior to the Stated Maturity, the amount which shall be deemed to be the principal amount of such Securities
as of any such date for any purpose thereunder or hereunder, including the principal amount thereof which shall be due and payable
upon any Maturity other than the Stated Maturity or which shall be deemed to be Outstanding as of any date prior to the Stated
Maturity (or, in any such case, the manner in which such amount deemed to be the principal amount shall be determined);

(20)
 if applicable, that Persons other than those specified in Section 1.11 shall have such benefits, rights, remedies
and claims with respect to any Securities of the series or under this Indenture with respect to such Securities, as and to the
extent provided for such Securities;

(21)
any change in the actions permitted or required under this Indenture to be taken by or on behalf of the Holders of the
Securities of the series, including any such change that permits or requires any or all such actions to be taken by or on behalf
of the Holders of any specific Securities of the series rather than or in addition to the Holders of all Securities of the series;

and

(24)
any other terms of the series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, except as permitted
by Section 9.01(7)).

All
Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided
in or pursuant to the Board Resolution referred to above and (subject to Section 3.03) set forth, or determined in the
manner provided, in the Officers’ Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities
of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided pursuant to this Section 3.01 for
any series, after issuance of Securities of such series, such series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of
that series.

    	21 

    	 

    

 

The
terms of any Security of a series may differ from the terms of other Securities of the same series, if and to the extent provided
pursuant to this Section 3.01. The matters referenced in any or all of Clauses (1) through (24) above may be established
and set forth or determined as aforesaid with respect to all or any specific Securities of a series (in each case to the extent
permitted by the Trust Indenture Act).

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

Section
3.02.     Denominations.
The Securities of each series shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in such denominations as shall
be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Securities
of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

Section 3.03.Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on
behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, President or a Vice President of the Company (or any other officer of the
Company designated in writing by or pursuant to authority of the Board of Directors and delivered to the Trustee from time to
time). The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

Securities
endorsed thereon bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company
shall bind the Company notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication
and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At
any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of
such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form
or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by
Sections 2.01 and 3.01, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this
Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall
be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

(1)  
if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.01,
that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(2)  
if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.01,
that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

    	22 

    	 

    

 

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

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

Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 3.01 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued
at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01
or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication
of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the
first Security of such series to be issued.

Each
Security shall be dated as of the date of its authentication.

No
Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears
on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual
signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated
and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have
been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

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

If
temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall
be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office
or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation
of any one or more temporary Securities of any

    	23 

    	 

    

 

series,
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities
of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities
of such series and tenor.

Section
3.05.     Registration,
Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at each office or agency of the Company designated
as a Place of Payment pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 10.02 a register (the register maintained in each such
office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. [Each such office or agency] is hereby appointed “Security
Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

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

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

All
Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing
the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of
transfer or exchange. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required
by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer
or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, Section 9.06 or Section 11.07 not
involving any transfer.

If
the Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in whole or in part, the Company shall
not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified
tenor, as the case may be) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice
of redemption of any such Securities under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of

    	24 

    	 

    

 

business
on the day of such mailing (or during such period as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for such Securities),
or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

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

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

(2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, and subject to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and
no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for
such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary has notified the Company that it (i) is unwilling or unable
to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act,
or (B) the Company has executed and delivered to the Trustee a Company Order stating that such Global Security shall be exchanged
in whole for Securities that are not Global Securities (in which case such exchange shall promptly be effected by the Trustee).
If the Company receives a notice of the kind specified in Clause (A) above or has delivered a Company Order of the kind specified
in Clause (B) above, it may, in its sole discretion, designate a successor Depositary for such Global Security within 90 days
after receiving such notice or delivery of such order, as the case may be. If the Company designates a successor Depositary as
aforesaid, such Global Security shall promptly be exchanged in whole for one or more other Global Securities registered in the
name of the successor Depositary, whereupon such designated successor shall be the Depositary for such successor Global Security
or Global Securities and the provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) of this provision shall continue to apply thereto.

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

(4)Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global
Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 3.04, Section 3.06, Section 9.06
or Section 11.07 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless
such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

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

    	25 

    	 

    

 

(1)
the Company and the Trustee may deal with the Depositary as sole owner of the Global Security and as the authorized representative
of such Person;

(2)
such Person’s rights in the Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to
those established by law and agreement between such Person and the Depositary and/or direct and indirect participants of the Depositary;

(3)
the Depositary and its participants make book-entry transfers of beneficial ownership among, and receive and transmit
distributions of principal and interest on the Global Securities to, such Persons in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
of the Depositary; and

(4)
none of the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability
for any aspect of the records relating to or payments

made on
account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating
to such beneficial ownership interests.

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

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

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

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

    	26 

    	 

    

 

Section
3.07.     Payment of Interest;
Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any Securities
of a series, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest (or, if no business is conducted by the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office
on such date, at 5:00 P.M. New York City time on such date).

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

(1)
The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest payable on any Securities of a series to the Persons in
whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify
the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each of such Securities and the date of the
proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount
proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit
prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment
and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The 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 given to each Holder of such Securities in the manner
set forth in Section 1.06, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons
in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

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

Except
as may otherwise be provided in this Section 3.07 or as contemplated in Section 3.01 with respect to any Securities
of a series, the Person to whom interest shall be payable on any Security that first becomes payable on a day that is not an Interest
Payment Date shall be the Holder of such Security on the day such interest is paid.

    	27 

    	 

    

 

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

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

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

Section
3.08.     Persons Deemed
Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company and the Trustee and any agent of
the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the
purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) any interest on such Security
and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent
of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

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

Section
3.10.     Computation
of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, interest on
the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section
3.11.     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

    	28 

    	 

    

 

representation
is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption
and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities. Any such redemption shall
not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of
any change in the CUSIP numbers.

Article
IV

4.01.     Satisfaction

provided for herein or in the terms of such Security), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Securities, when

(1)
either

(A)
all such Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or wrongfully
taken and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has
theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged
from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

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

		(i)	have
                                         become due and payable, or

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

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

and
the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds
in trust for such purpose money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore

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

(3)

conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the

    	29

Notwithstanding
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to Securities of any series, the obligations of the Company to the
Trustee under Section 6.07, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14, and,
if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section with respect to such
Securities, the obligations of the Company of such series under Section 10.02 and the obligations of the Trustee under
Section 4.02, Section 6.06 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 with respect to such Securities shall
survive such satisfaction and discharge.

Section
4.02.     Application
of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 4.01 with respect to Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance
with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including
the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and
any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. All moneys deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Section 4.01 (and held by it or any Paying Agent) for the payment of Securities subsequently converted shall

 any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series in accordance with Section 3.01.

Section
5.02.     Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any
specific Securities of any series, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(4)
or Section 5.01(5)) with respect to Securities of that series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in
every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series
may declare the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, in the case of any Security of that series which specifies
an amount to be due and payable thereon upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms
thereof) to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and
upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. Except as may
otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any specific Securities of any series, if an Event of Default
specified in Section 5.01(4) or Section 5.01(5) with respect to Securities of that series at the time Outstanding
occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, in the case of any Security of that series which specifies
an amount to be due and payable thereon upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms
thereof) shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately
due and payable.

Except
as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any specific Securities of any series, at any time after
such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of that series has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if:

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

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

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

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

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

(2)
 all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities
of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section
5.12.

    	32 

    	 

    

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

Section
5.04.     Trustee May
File Proofs of Claim. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities,
their property or their creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,
to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed
in any such proceeding. The Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable
on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and,
in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.

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

    	33 

    	 

    

 

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

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

FIRST:
To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07;

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

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

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

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

(2)
 the Holders of not less than 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

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

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

(5)
no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; it being understood and intended that
no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this

    	34 

    	 

    

 

Indenture
to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the
equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

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

Section
5.09.     Rights and Remedies
Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully
taken Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee
or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted
by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

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

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

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

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

(3)
subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction
if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Section
5.12.     Waiver of Past
Defaults. Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any specific Securities of any series,
the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender
offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of the Outstanding Securities of any series to be

    	35 

    	 

    

 

affected
under this Indenture may by notice to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any existing
default and its consequences hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default

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

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

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

Section
5.13.     Undertaking
for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the
Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to
file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses, against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that
neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to
make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Trustee or, if applicable, in any suit for the
enforcement of the right to convert any Security in accordance with its terms.

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

VI

THE TRUSTEE

6.01.     Certain Duties
and Responsibilities. (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

(1)
the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and
as are provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and, except for implied covenants or obligations under the Trust Indenture Act, no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

    	36 

    	 

    

 

(2)
in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to
be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts
stated therein).

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

(c)
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

(1)
 this Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of the first paragraph of this Section;

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

to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities
of such series; and

(4)
no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it.

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

Section
6.02.     Notice of Defaults.
If a default occurs hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such
series notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that
in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.01(3) with respect to Securities of such series, no
such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the
term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event
of Default with respect to Securities of such series.

(11)
 the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its rights to be indemnified,

Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

Section
6.05.     May Hold Securities.

6.07.     Compensation
and Reimbursement.

The
Company agrees

(1)
to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as the Company and Trustee shall agree in writing for all services
rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee
of an express trust);

(2)
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation
and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable
to its negligence or willful misconduct; and

(3)
to indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and its officers, directors, agents and employees for, and

upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal
of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities.

Without
limiting any rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection
with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(4) or Section 5.01(5), the expenses (including the reasonable
charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

The
provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section
6.08.     Conflicting
Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee
shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of,

to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series.

Section
6.09.     Corporate Trustee
Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of

its Corporate Trust Office in the continental United States of America. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section
and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be
its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section
6.10.     Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with
the applicable requirements of Section 6.11.

The
Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company.
If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee
within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company,
any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

The
Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance
by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving
of a notice of removal pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

If
at any time:

(1)
the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder
who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(2)
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor
by the Company or by any such Holder, or

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

then, in
any such case, (A) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to
Section 5.13, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself
and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to
all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any
cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee
may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only
one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section
6.11. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after
the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. If, within one year after
such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with

    	41 

    	 

    

 

respect
to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith
upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.
If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders
and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security
of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and
each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series
in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

Section
6.11.     Acceptance of
Appointment by Successor. 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 its
charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring
Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder.

In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the
Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain
such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall
contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of
the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall
continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall
be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood
that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that
each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered
by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture

    	42 

    	 

    

 

the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but,
on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

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

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

Section
6.12.     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, shall be the successor
of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have
been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to
such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as
if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

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

Section
6.14.     Appointment
of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to any series of Securities
which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate the Securities of such Series issued upon original issue
and upon exchange, registration of transfer, partial conversion or partial redemption or pursuant to Section 3.06, and
Securities of such series so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory
for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication
and delivery of Securities of such series by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference
shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent so appointed with respect
to such series and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent so appointed with
respect to such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized
and doing business under the laws of the

    	43 

    	 

    

 

United
States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having
a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority.
If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising
or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall
be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time
an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any
corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue
to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution
or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee, the Company, the Authenticating Agent or such successor
corporation. An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating
Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent with respect to any series of Securities which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of
such appointment to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Any successor Authenticating
Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder,
with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless
eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The
Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

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

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

notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

With

or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever
the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City
time, on each due date of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit (or, if the Company
has deposited any trust funds with a trustee pursuant to Section 12.04(1), cause such trustee to deposit) with a Paying
Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying
Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

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

    	51 

    	 

    

 

upon
the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect
of the Securities of that series.

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

Any
money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of
or any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an [unsecured] general creditor, look only to
the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all
liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the direction and expense of the Company, cause to be
published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation
in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be
less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the
Company.

Section
10.04.  Corporate Existence. Subject
to Article VIII, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect
its corporate existence.

Section
10.05.  Statement by Officers as to Default.
The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date
hereof, an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default
in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period
of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and
the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge;

Section
10.06.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.
Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any Securities of any series, the Company may, with respect
to all or any Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth
in Section 10.04 or in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 3.01(18), Section 9.01(4), Section 9.01(8)
or Section 9.01(9) for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in Article VIII if, before the time for
such compliance, the Holders of a majority in principal amount (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase of, or
tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities) of all Outstanding Securities affected by such waiver (considered together as
one class for this purpose and such affected Securities potentially being Securities of

 

    	52 

    	 

    

the
same or different series and, with respect to any particular series, potentially comprising fewer than all the Securities of such
series) shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term,
provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so
expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee
in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. A waiver of compliance given by or
on behalf of any Holder of Securities in connection with a purchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, such Holder’s Securities
will not be rendered invalid by such purchase, tender or exchange.

Article
XI

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

Section
11.01.  Applicability of Article.
Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms
and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such Securities) in accordance with this Article.

Section
11.02.  Election
to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall
be established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for
such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series (including
any such redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of
such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of
the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities (1) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such
redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, or (2) pursuant to an election of the Company
that is subject to a condition specified in the terms of the Securities of the series to be redeemed, the Company shall furnish
the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition.

Section
11.03.  Selection by Trustee of Securities
to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities of such series
and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities
to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 40 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities
of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may
provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of such series, provided that the
unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than
the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor
are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected not more than 40 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and
specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence.

    	53 

    	 

    

 

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

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

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

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

Section
11.04.  Notice of Redemption. Notice
of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.06 not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date (or within such period as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the relevant Securities),
to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register.

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

(1)
the Redemption Date,

(2)
the Redemption Price,

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

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

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

    	54 

    	 

    

 

(6)
for any Securities that by their terms may be converted, the terms of conversion, the date on which the right to convert
the Security to be redeemed will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion, and

(7)
that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

Notice
of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s
request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company.

Section
11.05.  Deposit of Redemption Price.
Prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent
(or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount
of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued
interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date, other than any Securities called for redemption on that
date which have been converted prior to the date of such deposit.

If
any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Trustee or with any Paying Agent or so segregated
and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to any right of the Holder of such Security or any Predecessor
Security to receive interest as provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.07 or in the terms of such Security) be paid
to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust.

Section
11.06.  Securities Payable on Redemption
Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date,
become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default
in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any
such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price,
together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to
the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant
Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

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

Section
11.07.  Securities Redeemed in Part.
Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or
the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee
duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same
series

    	55 

    	 

    

 

and
of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange
for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

Article
XII

DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

Section
12.01.  Company’s Option to Effect
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Unless otherwise designated pursuant to Section 3.01(15), the Securities of any
series of Securities shall be subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance pursuant to such Section 12.02 or Section
12.03, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 3.01 and upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article. The Company may elect, at its option, at any time, to have Section 12.02 or
Section 12.03 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities so subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance. Any
such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for
such Securities.

Section
12.02.  Defeasance and Discharge.
Upon the Company’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities,
as the case may be, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities as
provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 are satisfied (hereinafter called
“Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid
and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other respective obligations
under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute
proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 12.04(1)
and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such
Securities when payments are due, (2) the obligations of the Company with respect to such Securities under Section 3.04,
Section 3.05, Section 3.06, Section 10.02 and Section 10.03, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties
and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise
its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option (if any) to
have Section 12.03 applied to such Securities.

Section
12.03.  Covenant Defeasance. Upon
the Company’s exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities,
as the case may be, (1) the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 10.04 and any covenants provided
pursuant to Section 3.01(18), Section 9.01(4), Section 9.01(10) or Section 9.01(10) for the benefit
of the Holders of such Securities, and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 5.01(3) (with respect to Section
10.04 and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 3.01(18), Section 9.01(4), Section 9.01(10)
or Section 9.01(10) and Section 5.01(6) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case
with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 12.04
are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance
means that, with respect to such Securities, the Company may omit to comply with

 

    	56 

    	 

    

and
shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent
so specified in the case of Section 5.01(3)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein
to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document,
but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

Section
12.04.  Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 to any Securities or
any series of Securities, as the case may be:

(1)
The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies
the requirements contemplated by Section 6.09 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it)
as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated
solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through
the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than
one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) such other obligations or arrangements as may be specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Securities, or (D) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient,
in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee)
to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities on the respective Stated Maturities, in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used herein, “U.S. Government Obligation”
means (x) any security which is (i) a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith
and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting
as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith
and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the
option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a) (2) of the Securities
Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in Clause (x) above and held by such bank
for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest
on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is
not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received
by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such
depositary receipt.

(2)
In the event of an election to have Section 12.02 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from,
or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been
a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion
shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result
of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge

 

    	57 

    	 

    

to
be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and
at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

(3)
In the event of an election to have Section 12.03 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case
may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities
will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected
with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same
times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.

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

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

(6)
Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any
other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

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

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

Section
12.05.  Deposited Money and U.S. Government
Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03,
all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee
(solely for purposes of this Section and Section 12.06, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively
as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 12.04 in respect of any Securities shall be held in trust
and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly
or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company
acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon
in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money and U.S. Government Obligations so held in trust need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.

    	58 

    	 

    

 

The
Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 12.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any
such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

Anything
in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 12.04 with respect to any Securities
which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities.

Section
12.06.  Reinstatement. If the Trustee
or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article with respect to any Securities by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then
the respective obligations under this Indenture and such Securities from which the Company has been discharged or released pursuant
to Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
this Article with respect to such Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held
in trust pursuant to Section 12.05 with respect to such Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however,
that if the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any such Security following such reinstatement
of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment
from the money so held in trust.
