All notices of any kind to be delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered or if sent by nationally-recognized overnight courier (e.g., FedEx, UPS, DHL, etc.) or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, addressed to the Company at 7102 Commerce Way, Brentwood, Tennessee 37027, Attn: Chief Financial Officer, to Executive at her then-existing payroll address, or to such other address as the party to whom notice is to be given may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been received: (a) if by personal delivery or nationally-recognized overnight courier, on the date of such delivery and (b) if by registered or certified mail, on the third postal service day following the date postmarked.

		
	18.
	Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of law. The state and federal courts for Davidson County, Tennessee shall be the exclusive venue for any litigation based in significant part upon this Agreement.

		
	19.
	Mediation / Arbitration.

		
	(a)
	Any dispute concerning a legally cognizable claim arising out of this Agreement or in connection with the employment of Executive by Company, including, without limitation, claims of breach of contract, fraud, unlawful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, defamation, tortious infliction of emotional distress, unfair competition, arbitrability and conversion (collectively a “Legal Dispute”) shall be resolved according to the following protocol:

		
	(i)
	The parties shall first submit the Legal Dispute to mediation under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and pursuant to the mediation rules and procedures promulgated by the AAA. The Company shall pay the expenses associated with the mediation.

12

		
	(ii)
	In the event mediation is unsuccessful in fully resolving the Legal Dispute, binding arbitration shall be the method of final resolution. The parties expressly waive their rights to bring action against one another in a court of law except as expressly provided herein. In addition to remedies at law, the parties acknowledge that failure to comply with this provision shall entitle the non-breaching party to injunctive relief to enjoin the actions of the breaching party. Any Legal Dispute submitted to Arbitration shall be under the auspices of the AAA and pursuant to the “National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes,” or any similar identified rules promulgated at such time the Legal Dispute is submitted for resolution. All mediation and arbitration hearings shall take place in either Davidson or Williamson County, Tennessee. The Company shall pay the filing expenses associated with the arbitration. All other expenses and fees associated with the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with the AAA rules.

		
	(b)
	Notice of submission of any Legal Dispute to mediation shall be provided no later than one year following the date the submitting party became aware, or should have become aware of, the conduct constituting the alleged claims. Failure to do so shall result in the irrevocable waiver of the claim made in the Legal Dispute.

		
	(c)
	Notwithstanding that mediation and arbitration are established as the exclusive procedures for resolution of any Legal Dispute, (i) either party may apply to an appropriate judicial or administrative forum for injunctive relief and (ii) claims by Company arising in connection with Sections 7, 8, 9, 10 and/or 11 may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction.

		
	(d)
	With respect to any breach or attempted breach of Sections 7, 8 and/or 9 of this Agreement, each party acknowledges that a remedy at law will be inadequate, agrees that the Company will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief and agrees not to use as a defense that any party has an adequate remedy at law. This Agreement shall be enforceable in a court of equity, or other tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection herewith. Such remedy shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise. No delay or omission in exercising any right or remedy set forth in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right or remedy and no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

		
	20.
	Section 409A.

		
	(a)
	It is intended that each installment of the payments provided under this Agreement, if any, is a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A and the payments satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) and 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v). Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, a termination of employment with the Company shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of “deferred compensation” (as such term is defined in Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A and Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references 

13

to a “separation,” “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”
		
	(b)
	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Company determines (i) that on the date her employment with the Company terminates or at such other time that the Company determines to be relevant, Executive is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(i)(1)) of the Company and (ii) that any payments to be provided to her pursuant to this Agreement are or may become subject to the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) or any other taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A if provided at the time otherwise required under this Agreement, then such payments shall be delayed until the date that is six months after the date of her “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)) with the Company, or, if earlier, the date of her death. Any payments delayed pursuant to this Section shall be made in a lump sum on the first business day of the seventh month following Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)), or, if earlier, the date of her death.

		
	(c)
	In addition, to the extent that any reimbursement, fringe benefit or other, similar plan or arrangement in which Executive participates during the term of her employment under this Agreement or thereafter provides for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, then such amount shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations, including (i) the amount eligible for reimbursement or payment under such plan or arrangement in one calendar year may not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement or payment in any other calendar year (except that a plan providing medical or health benefits may impose a generally applicable limit on the amount that may be reimbursed or paid), (ii) subject to any shorter time periods provided herein or the applicable plans or arrangements, any reimbursement or payment of an expense under such plan or arrangement must be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred, and (iii) the right to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

		
	(d)
	For the avoidance of doubt, any payment due under this Agreement within a period following Executive’s termination of employment or other event, shall be made on a date during such period as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

		
	(e)
	Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Section 409A.

		
	(f)
	This Agreement is intended to comply with the applicable requirements under Section 409A and the related Treasury Regulations and guidance issued by the Department of the Treasury, as modified from time to time, including exceptions and exemptions provided for therein (the “409A Requirements”). Accordingly, this Agreement shall be administered, construed and interpreted in a manner to comply with the 409A Requirements. Specifically, and without limiting the foregoing, if any terms set forth in this Agreement are considered to be ambiguous, such terms shall be administered, construed and interpreted in a manner to comply with the 409A Requirements.

In witness whereof, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the 4th day of May, 2018.

Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this

in accordance with its terms, have been done; and

 

WHEREAS, this
Indenture is subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act
that are required to be a part of this Indenture and, to the extent
applicable, shall be governed by such provisions.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the
Securities by the Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and
agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of
the Securities or of series thereof, as follows:

 

ARTICLE ONE

DEFINITIONS AND
OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION

 

1.1           Definitions.
For all purposes of this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly

Act have the meanings so assigned to them;

 

(c)           all
accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings
assigned to them in accordance with GAAP;

 

(d)           the
words “herein,”

other words of similar import refer to this Indenture as a whole
and not to any particular Article, Section or other

1

 

 

 

(e)           the
words “Article” and
“Section” refer to
an Article and Section, respectively, of this Indenture;
and

 

(f)           the
word “includes” and its
derivatives means “includes, but is not limited
to” and corresponding derivative
definitions.

 

Certain

supplemental indenture hereto, a Board Resolution or an

and (b) pursuant to the terms set forth in such supplemental
indenture, Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate, made
subject to the provisions of Article Thirteen.

 

“Affiliate” of any
specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common
control with such specified Person. For purposes of this
definition, “control,” as used
with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or
indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the
management or policies of such Person, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise. For
purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,”
“controlled
by” and “under common control

of the Company, any other authorized officer of the Company, or a
person duly authorized by any of them, in each case as applicable,
to have been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and to be in
full force and effect on the date of such certification, and
delivered to the Trustee. Where any provision of this Indenture
refers to action to be taken pursuant to a Board Resolution
(including the establishment of any series of the Securities and
the forms and terms thereof), such action may be taken by any
committee, officer or employee of the Company authorized to take
such action by the Board of Directors as evidenced by a Board
Resolution.

 

“Business Day,”
when used with respect to any Place of Payment or other location,
means, except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1
with respect to any series of Securities, each Monday, Tuesday,

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.

rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required
Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which final
unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a Banking
Day, then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the rate of
exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal
banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New
York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the
Banking Day next preceding the day on which final unappealable
judgment is entered and (b) its obligations under this Indenture to
make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged
or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any
judgment (regardless of whether entered in accordance with
subclause (a)), in any currency other than the Required Currency,
except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in
the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the
Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such
payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional
cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required
Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall

obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture.

conditions upon which Securities of the series shall be redeemed or

obligation;

(p)           if

(whether upon original issue or upon exchange of a temporary
Security of such series) only upon receipt of certain certificates

(q)           if

with the provisions of this Indenture).

 

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 3.3)
set forth, or determined in the manner provided, in the
Officer’s Certificate referred to above or in any such
indenture supplemental hereto.

 

 

 

24

 

 

All
Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time
and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without
the consent of the Holders, for increases in the aggregate
principal amount of such series of Securities and issuances of
additional Securities of such series or for the establishment of
additional terms with respect to the Securities of such
series.

 

If any
of the terms of the series are established by action taken by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of
such action shall be certified by an authorized officer or other
authorized person on behalf of the Company and delivered to the
Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officer’s
Certificate setting forth, or providing the manner for determining,
the terms of the series.

 

With
respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering,
such Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate may provide
general terms for Securities of such series and provide either that
the specific terms of particular Securities of such series shall be
specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined
by the Company or one or more agents thereof designated in an
Officer’s Certificate, in accordance with a Company
Order.

 

3.2           Denominations.
The Securities of each series shall be issuable in registered form
without coupons in such denominations as shall be specified as
contemplated by Section 3.1. In
the absence of any such provisions 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.

 

3.3           Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be
executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its
Chief Executive Officer, its President, its Chief Financial Officer
or any of its Vice Presidents and need not be attested. The
signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual
or facsimile.

 

Securities 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; provided, however,
that in the case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such Securities from time to
time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without
limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic
instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents,
thereafter promptly confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee
as may be specified by or pursuant to a Company Order delivered to
the Trustee prior to the time of the first authentication of
Securities of such series. If the forms or terms of the Securities
of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more
Board Resolutions as permitted by Section 2.1 and
Section
3.1, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the
additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to
such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such
documents as it may reasonably request. The Trustee shall also be
entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1)
shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating,

 

 

 

25

 

 

(a)           if
the form or forms of such Securities has been established in or
pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1,
that each such form has been established in conformity with the
provisions of this Indenture;

 

(b)           if
the terms of such Securities have been, or in the case of
Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering will be,
established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by
Section
3.1, that such terms have been, or in the case of Securities
of a series offered in a Periodic Offering will be, established in
conformity with the provisions of this Indenture, subject, in the
case of Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, to
any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel;
and

 

(c)           that
such Securities when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and
issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions
and assumptions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will
constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the
following limitations: (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization, liquidation, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and
other similar laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, or to general
equity principles, (ii) the availability of equitable remedies
being subject to the discretion of the court to which application
therefor is made; and (iii) such other usual and customary matters
as shall be specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

 

If such
form or forms 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 3.1 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 Officer’s Certificate otherwise required pursuant
to Section
3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise
required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the
time of 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.

 

With
respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering,
the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any
of such Securities, on the form or forms and terms thereof and the
legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon
the Opinion of Counsel and the other documents delivered pursuant
to Section
2.1 and Section 3.1 and
this Section, as applicable, in connection with the first
authentication of Securities of such series.

 

 

 

26

 

 

Each
Security shall be dated the date of its
authentication.

 

No
Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or
be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such
Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form
provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature of
an authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Security shall
be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security
has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture. 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 3.9 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.

 

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

 

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

 

3.5           Registration,
Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall
cause to be kept at the office or agency of the Company in the
Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York or in any other office
or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment required by
Section
10.2 a register (the register maintained in such office
being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The
Trustee is hereby appointed as the initial “Security
Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities
and transfers of Securities as herein provided, and its corporate
trust office in New York City, which, at the date hereof, is
located at [_____________________], New York, New York [_____], is
the initial office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan where the
Securities Register will be maintained. The Company may at any time
replace such Security Registrar, change such office or agency or
act as its own Security Registrar. The Company will give prompt
written notice to the Trustee of any change of the Security
Registrar or of the location of such office or agency.

 

 

 

27

 

 

Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any
series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 10.2
for such purpose, 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 and
tenor, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate
principal amount.

 

At the
option of the Holder, Securities of any series (except a Global
Security) may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series
and tenor, of any authorized denominations and of a like 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
3.4, Section 9.6 or
Section
11.7 not involving any transfer.

 

The
Company shall not be required (a) to issue, register the transfer
of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning
at, the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing
of a notice of redemption of Securities of that series selected for
redemption under Section 11.3
and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, 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.

 

Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Indenture and except as otherwise
specified with respect to any particular series of Securities as
contemplated by Section 3.1, a
Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of
a series may not be transferred, except as a whole by the
Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a
nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of
such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a
successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. Every Security authenticated and delivered upon
registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a
Global Security shall be a Global Security except as provided in
the two paragraphs immediately following.

 

 

 

28

 

 

If at
any time the Depositary for any Securities of a series represented
by one or more Global Securities notifies the Company that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Securities
or if at any time the Depositary for such Securities shall no
longer be eligible to continue as Depositary under Section 3.1 or
ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act,
the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to
such Securities. If a successor Depositary for such Securities is
not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company
receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the
Company’s election pursuant to Section 3.1
that such Securities be represented by one or more Global
Securities shall no longer be effective and the Company will
execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of Definitive Securities of such
series, will authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in
definitive registered form without coupons, in any authorized
denominations, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing
such Securities in exchange for such Global Security or Securities
registered in the names of such Persons as the Depositary shall
direct.

 

The
Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that
the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more
Global Securities shall no longer be represented by a Global
Security or Securities. In such event, the Company will execute and
the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication
and delivery of the Definitive Securities of such series, will
authenticate and deliver, Securities of such series in definitive
registered form without coupons, in any authorized denominations,
in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
the Global Security or Securities representing such Securities in
exchange for such Global Security or Securities registered in the
names of such Persons as the Depositary shall direct.

 

If
specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1
with respect to Securities represented by a Global Security, the
Depositary for such Global Security may surrender such Global
Security in exchange in whole or in part for Securities of the same
series and tenor in definitive registered form on such terms as are
acceptable to the Company, the Trustee and such Depositary.
Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of
Securities in definitive registered form, shall authenticate and
deliver, without service charge,

 

(a)           to
the Person specified by such Depositary, a new Security or
Securities of the same series and tenor, of any authorized
denominations as requested by such Person, in an aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s
beneficial interest in the Global Security; and

 

(b)           to
such Depositary, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to
the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the
surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of
Securities authenticated and delivered pursuant to clause (a)
above.

 

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

 

(a)           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;

 

 

 

29

 

 

(b)           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;

 

(c)           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 their own procedures; and

 

(d)           none
of the Company, the Trustee, nor any agent of any of them 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.

 

3.6           Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated
Security is surrendered to the Trustee, together with, in proper
cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company
or the Trustee to save each of them and any agent of any of them
harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the
same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

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

 

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

 

Upon
the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company
may require 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 stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company
regardless of whether the destroyed, lost or stolen 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 stolen
Securities.

 

 

 

30

 

 

3.7           Payment
of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise
provided as contemplated by Section 3.1
with respect to any series of Securities, 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.

 

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 (a) or
(b) below:

 

(a)           The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the
Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (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 Security of such series 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 mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder
of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the
Security Register, 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 the Securities of such series (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 (b).

 

(b)           The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
Securities of any 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.

 

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.

 

 

 

31

 

 

3.8           Persons
Deemed Owners. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated
by Section
3.1 with respect to any series of Securities, prior to due
presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent thereof 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 3.5 and
Section
3.7) any interest on such Security and for all other
purposes whatsoever, regardless of whether such Security be
overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of any
of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

No
holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on
its behalf by a Depositary shall have any rights under this
Indenture with respect to such Global Security, and such Depositary
may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of thereof
as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes
whatsoever.

 

3.9           Cancellation.
All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of
transfer or exchange 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 its
customary practices, and the Trustee shall thereafter deliver to
the Company a certificate with respect to such disposition from
time to time upon written request.

 

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

 

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

ARTICLE FOUR

SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE

 

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

caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
such purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and
interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities
which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or
Redemption Date, as the case may be, together with instructions
from the Company irrevocably directing the Trustee to apply such
funds to the payment thereof at maturity or redemption, as the case
may be;

 

(b)           the

conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such
Securities have been complied with.

the Securities of any series, (x) the obligations of the Company to
the Trustee under Section 6.7,
the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under
Section
6.14 and the right of the Trustee to resign under
Section

all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1
shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the
provisions of the 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.

 

ARTICLE FIVE

REMEDIES

 

5.1           Events
of Default. “Event of Default,”
wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series,
means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such
Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary
or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment,
decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of
any administrative or governmental body):

 

(a)           default
in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series
when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default
for a period of 30 days; or

 

(b)           default
in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any
Security of that series at its Maturity; or

 

(c)           default
in the deposit of any sinking fund payment when due;
or

 

(d)           default
in the performance, or breach, of the covenant set forth in
Section
8.1; or

 

(e)           default
in the performance, or breach, of any covenant in this Indenture
(other than the covenant in Section 8.1 or
any other covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach
is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has
expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of
series of Securities other than that series), and continuance of
such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has been
given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the
Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that
series a written notice specifying such default or breach and
requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a
“Notice of
Default” hereunder; or

 

 

 

34

 

 

(f)           the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the
meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case
or proceeding, (ii) consents to the entry of any order for
relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding,
(iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for
all or substantially all of its property, (iv) makes a general
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (v) consents to
or acquiesces in the institution of a bankruptcy or an insolvency
proceeding against it, (vi) takes any corporate action to
authorize or effect any of the foregoing, or (vii) takes any
comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency;
or

 

(g)           a
court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any
Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against the Company or
any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case,
(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary for all or substantially all of its property, or
(iii) orders the liquidation or winding up of the Company or
any Significant Subsidiary; and the order or decree remains
unstayed and in effect for 30 consecutive days; or

 

(h)           any
other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that
series in accordance with Section
3.1.

 

5.2           Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of
Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the
Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the
principal amount (or, if the Securities of that series are Original
Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as
may be specified in the terms of that series), together with any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, of all of the Securities of
that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders),
and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified
amount), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) of
Section
5.1 occurs, the Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding shall be due and payable immediately without further
action or notice.

 

At any
time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Securities of any 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 Five 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:

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)           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,

 

 

 

35

 

 

(iii)           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

 

(iv)           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

 

(b)           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
5.13.

 

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

 

5.3           Collection
of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The
Company covenants that if:

 

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

 

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

 

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.

 

 

 

36

 

 

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

 

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

 

(b)           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,
if 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
6.7.

 

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, compromise, 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.

 

5.5           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.

 

5.6           Application
of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article Five 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:

 

 

 

37

 

 

FIRST:
To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section
6.7;

 

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:
The balance, if any, to the Company.

 

5.7           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:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

5.8           Unconditional
Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder
of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any
premium and (subject to Section 3.5 and
Section
3.7) interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or
Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 

 

38

 

 

5.9           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.

 

5.10           Rights
and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, 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.

 

5.11           Delay
or Omission Not Waiver. To fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, 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 Five 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.

 

5.12           Control
by Holders. The Holders of not less than 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,
however,
that:

 

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

 

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

 

(c)           subject
to the provisions of Section 6.1,
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.

 

 

 

39

 

 

5.13           Waiver
of Past Defaults. By written notice to the Company and the
Trustee, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of
the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past
default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences,
except:

 

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

 

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

 

Upon
any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event
of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured,
for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

 

5.14           Undertaking
for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each
Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to
have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any
suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party
litigant, other than the Trustee, in such suit of an undertaking to
pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or
defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section
5.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company,
to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by
any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than
10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any
series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement
of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities
expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or
after the Redemption Date).

 

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

 

ARTICLE SIX

THE
TRUSTEE

 

6.1           Certain
Duties and Responsibilities.

 

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

 

 

 

40

 

 

(i)           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 no implied covenants or obligations
shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and

 

(ii)           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 they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture.

 

(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 man would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his 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

 

(i)           this
Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection
(a) of this Section;

 

(ii)           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;

 

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

 

(iv)           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)           Regardless
of whether 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.

 

 

 

41

 

 

6.2           Notice
of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any
Default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such
series, as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register, notice of such Default hereunder known to the Trustee,
unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except
in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Security of such series or in the
payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities
of such series, the Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities
notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if the Trustee
in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in
the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and,
provided,
further,
that in the case of any Default of the character specified in
Section
5.1(c) with respect to Securities of such series, no such
notice to Holders shall be given until at least 90 days after the
occurrence thereof and that in the case of any Default of the
character specified in Section 5.1(e)
with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to
Holders shall be given until at least 180 days after the occurrence
thereof.

 

6.3           Certain
Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1:

 

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

 

(b)           any
request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be
sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other

delivery pursuant to Section 3.3,
which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any
resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced
by a Board Resolution;

 

(c)           whenever
in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it
desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking,
suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless
other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) shall be entitled
to receive and may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely
upon an Officer’s Certificate;

 

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

 

(e)           the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights
or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or
direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless
such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security
or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which
might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction;

 

 

 

42

 

 

(f)           the
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts
or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or
other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may
make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to
make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to

(i)           the
Trustee shall be entitled to the rights and protections afforded to
the Trustee pursuant to this Article Six in acting as a Paying
Agent or Security Registrar hereunder; and

 

(j)           the
Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event

knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in
fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes
and this Indenture.

and Reimbursement. The Company agrees:

 

(a)           to
pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation 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);

 

(b)           except

shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and
the Legal Defeasance of the Securities.

Conflicting Interests. Reference is made to Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act. There shall be excluded from the
operation of Section
310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act this Indenture with
respect to the Securities of more than one series.

6.9           Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a
Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America, any State
thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to
exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus required by the Trust Indenture Act, subject to supervision
or examination by Federal or State authority. If such corporation
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 corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. The Trustee shall not be an obligor upon
the Securities or an Affiliate thereof. If at any time the Trustee
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 Six.

 

6.10           Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)           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.

 

(b)           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 30
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning
Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series.

 

(c)           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.

 

(d)           If
at any time:

 

(i)           the
Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act 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

 

(ii)           the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.9 and
shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company
or by any such Holder, or

 

(iii)           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
5.14, 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.

 

 

 

45

 

 

(e)           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, within one year after such resignation, removal or
incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor
Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the
Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so
appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment
in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 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.

 

(f)           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 1.7.
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.

 

6.11           Acceptance

(a)           In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so
appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and
to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee
shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on
the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall, upon payment of 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.

 

 

 

46

 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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 Six, 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.

 

 

 

47

 

 

6.13           Preferential
Collection of Claims Against Company. Reference is made to
Section 311 of the
Trust Indenture Act. For purposes of Section 311(b) of the Trust
Indenture Act,

 

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

 

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

 

6.14           Appointment
of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series
of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the
Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon
exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or
pursuant to Section 3.6,
and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all
purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever
reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and
delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed
on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each
Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall
at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under
the laws of the United States of America, 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.

 

 

 

48

 

 

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 of 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
or the Authenticating Agent.

 

An
Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written
notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may
at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to
the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon
such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall mail
written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to
which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and
addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as
an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be
appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this
Section.

 

Except
with respect to an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of
the Company, the Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent
from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under
this Section 6.14,
and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Company
for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section
6.7.

 

If an
appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to
this Section 6.14,
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 therein referred to
in the within-mentioned Indenture.

ARTICLE SEVEN

HOLDERS’
LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

 

7.1           Company
to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders. The
Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee:

 

(a)           semi-annually,
not more than 15 days after each Regular Record Date for a series
of Securities, a list for such series of Securities, in such form
as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses
of the Holders of Securities of such series as of such Regular
Record Date, and

 

(b)           at
such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30
days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list
of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days
prior to the time such list is furnished; provided,
however, that
if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Security Registrar, no
such list need be furnished with respect to such series of
Securities.

 

7.2           Preservation
of Information; Communications to Holders.

 

(a)           The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the
most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in
Section
7.1 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the
Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar. The Trustee may
destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 7.1
upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

 

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

 

(i)           afford
such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by
the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a),
or

 

(ii)           inform
such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders whose names
and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by
the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.2(a),
and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form
of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such
application.

 

 

 

50

 

 

If the
Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such
information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such
applicants, mail to each Holder whose name and address appear in
the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance
with Section 7.2(a)
a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is
specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a
tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment,
or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of
mailing, unless within five days after such tender the Trustee
shall mail to such applicants and file with the SEC, together with
a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the
effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be
contrary to the best interest of the Holders or would be in
violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify
the basis of such opinion. If the SEC, after opportunity for a
hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so
filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such
objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or
more of such objections, the SEC shall find, after notice and
opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have
been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall
mail copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable
promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such
tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation
or duty to such applicants respecting their
application.

 

(c)           Every
Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees
with the Company and the Trustee that none of the Company nor the
Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be held accountable by
reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names
and addresses of the Holders in accordance with Section 7.2(b),
regardless of the source from which such information was derived,
and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of
mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section
7.2(b).

 

7.3           Reports
by Trustee. Any Trustee’s report required pursuant to
Section
313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be dated as of May
15, and shall be transmitted within 60 days after May 15 of each
year (but in all events at intervals of not more than 12 months),
commencing with the year 20__, by mail to all Holders, as their
names and addresses appear in the Security Register. A copy of each
such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be
filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any
Securities are listed, with the SEC and with the Company. The
Company will notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on
any stock exchange.

 

7.4           Reports
by Company. The Company shall:

 

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

 

(b)           file
with the Trustee and the SEC, in accordance with rules and
regulations prescribed from time to time by the SEC, such
additional information, documents and reports with respect to
compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants of this

of this Section as may be required by rules and regulations
prescribed from time to time by the SEC.

the successor or resulting Person formed by or resulting upon such
consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which
such sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition is made
shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every
right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same
effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company
herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the
predecessor Company shall be relieved of all obligations and
covenants under this Indenture and the Securities.

any holder of a Security:

 

(a)           to

that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein in a
manner that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of
Securities in any material respect; or

evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and the
assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company
herein and, to the extent applicable, to the Securities;

(e)           to
add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants,
restrictions, conditions or provisions as the Company shall
consider to be appropriate for the benefit of the Holders of all or
any series of Securities (and if such covenants, restrictions,
conditions or provisions are to be for the benefit of less than all
series of Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly
being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company and
to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a
Default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions
or provisions an Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all
or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein
set forth; provided, that in respect of any such additional
covenant, restriction, condition or provision such supplemental
indenture may provide for a particular period of grace after
default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in
the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate
enforcement upon such an Event of Default or may limit the remedies
available to the Trustee upon such an Event of Default or may limit
the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of such series to waive such an Event of
Default; or

 

(f)           to
make any change to any provision of this Indenture that does not
adversely affect the rights or interests of any Holder of
Securities; or

 

 

 

53

 

 

(g)           to
provide for the issuance of additional Securities in accordance
with the provisions set forth in this Indenture on the date of this
Indenture; or

 

(h)           to
add any additional Defaults or Events of Default in respect of all
or any series of Securities; or

 

(i)           to
add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture
to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the
issuance of Securities in bearer form, registrable or not
registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons;
or

 

(j)           to
change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture;
provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective
only when there is no Security Outstanding of any series created
prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture that is
entitled to the benefit of such provision; or

 

(k)           to
establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as
permitted by Section 2.1 and
Section
3.1, including to reopen any series of any Securities as

or

 

(l)           to

series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this
Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee,
pursuant to the requirements of Section
6.11(b); or

 

(m)           to
conform the text of this Indenture (and/or any supplemental
indenture) or any debt securities issued thereunder to any
provision of a description of such debt securities appearing in a
prospectus or prospectus supplement or an offering memorandum or
offering circular to the extent that such provision was intended to
be a verbatim recreation of a provision of the indenture (and/or
any supplemental indenture) or any debt securities issued
thereunder; or

 

(n)           to
modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to
such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of
this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or under any similar
federal statute subsequently enacted, and to add to this Indenture
such other provisions as may be expressly required under the Trust
Indenture Act.

 

After
an amendment under this Section 9.1
becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice
briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice
to Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the
validity of an amendment under this Section
9.1.

 

Upon
the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, the Trustee is hereby authorized to join
with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental
indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and
stipulations that may be therein contained and to accept the
conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage, charge or pledge of any
property thereunder, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to
enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise.

 

 

 

54

 

 

9.2           With
Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend or
supplement this Indenture and the Securities with the consent of
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of each series of Securities affected by
such amendment or supplemental indenture, with each such series
voting as a separate class (including, without limitation, consents
obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or
exchange offer for Securities) and, subject to Section 5.8 and
Section
5.13 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default or
compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities
may be waived with respect to each series of Securities with the
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series voting as a separate class
(including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or
tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities).

 

Upon
the request of the Company accompanied by a resolution of its Board
of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of
evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders
of Securities as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the
documents described in Section 6.3
hereof, the Trustee will join with the Company in the execution of
such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or
supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in
which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be
obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental
Indenture.

 

It is
not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under
this Section 9.2 to
approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver,
but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the
proposed amendment or waiver.

 

After
an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2
becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of
Securities affected thereby a notice briefly describing the
amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail
such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental
indenture or waiver. Subject to Section 5.8 and
Section
5.13 hereof, the application of or compliance with, either
generally or in any particular instance, of any provision of this
Indenture or the Securities may be waived as to each series of
Securities by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series. However,
without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver
under this Section 9.2 may
not (with respect to any Securities held by a non-consenting
Holder):

 

(a)           change
the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of
principal of or interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal
amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium
payable upon the redemption thereof, or reduce the amount of the
principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due
and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity
thereof pursuant to Section 5.2, or
change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in
which, any Security or any premium or the interest thereon is
payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date),
or

 

 

 

55

 

 

(b)           reduce
the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required
for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this
Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences)
provided for in this Indenture, or

 

(c)           modify
any of the provisions of this Section 9.2,
Section
5.8, Section 5.13 or
Section
10.6, except to increase any such percentage or to provide
that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified
or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding
Security affected thereby, provided, however, that this
clause (c) shall not be deemed to require the consent of any
Holder with respect to changes in the references to
“the
Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section, or
the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements
of Section
6.11(b) and Section 9.1(l);
or

 

(d)           waive
a redemption payment with respect to any Security; provided,
however, that any purchase or repurchase of Securities shall not be
deemed a redemption of the Securities; or

 

(e)           make
any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver
provisions.

 

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

 

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

 

9.3           Execution
of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or accepting the
additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted
by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
(subject to Section 6.1)
shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental
indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

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

 

 

 

56

 

 

9.5           Conformity
with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture
executed pursuant to this Article Nine shall conform to the
requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in
effect.

 

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

 

ARTICLE TEN

COVENANTS

 

10.1           Payment
of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company covenants
and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it
will duly and punctually pay the principal of and any premium and
interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the
terms of the Securities and this Indenture.

 

10.2           Maintenance
of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency
(which may be an office of the Trustee or Registrar or agent of the
Trustee or Registrar) where Securities of that series may be
presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that
series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of
the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The
Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.
If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required
office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the
address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee.

 

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

 

Except
as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities as
contemplated by Section 3.1,
the Company hereby initially designates the office of the Trustee
located at [_____________], New York, New York [_____], as the
Company’s office or agency for each such purpose for each
series of Securities.

 

 

 

57

 

 

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

 

Whenever the
Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of
Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of and
any premium or interest on any Securities of that series, deposit
with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal and any
premium or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium
or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the
Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure
so to act. For purposes of this Section 10.3,
should a due date for principal of and any premium or interest on,
or sinking fund payment with respect to any series of Securities
not be on a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next
Business Day without any interest for the period from the due date
until such Business Day.

 

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:

 

(a)           hold
all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of and any
premium or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be
paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided;

 

(b)           give
the Trustee notice of any Default by the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any
payment of principal and any premium or interest on the Securities
of that series; and

 

(c)           at
any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all
sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

 

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.

 

 

 

58

 

 

Subject
to any applicable escheat or abandoned property laws, any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of and any
premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining
unclaimed for one year after such principal and any 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 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 Borough of Manhattan, 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.

 

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

 

10.5           Statement
by Officer as to Default. Annually, within 150 days after
the close of each fiscal year beginning with the first fiscal year
during which one or more series of Securities are Outstanding, the
Company will deliver to the Trustee a brief certificate (which need
not include the statements set forth in Section 1.3)
from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer
or principal accounting officer of the Company as to his or her
knowledge of the Company’s compliance (without regard to any
period of grace or requirement of notice provided herein) with all
conditions and covenants under the Indenture and, if the Company
shall be in Default, specifying all such Defaults and the nature
and status thereof of which such officer has
knowledge.

 

10.6           Additional
Amounts. If the Securities of a series provide for the
payment of additional amounts (as provided in Section
3.1(o)), at least 10 days prior to the first Interest
Payment Date with respect to that series of Securities and at least
10 days prior to each date of payment of principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on the Securities of that series if there has been
a change with respect to the matters set forth in the
below-mentioned Officer’s Certificate, the Company shall
furnish to the Trustee and the principal Paying Agent, if other
than the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate instructing the
Trustee and such Paying Agent whether such payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of that series shall
be made to holders of the Securities of that series without
withholding or deduction for or on account of any tax, assessment
or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that
series. If any such withholding or deduction shall be required,
then such Officer’s Certificate shall specify by country the
amount, if any, required to be withheld or deducted on such
payments to such holders and shall certify the fact that additional
amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable to each holder,
and the Company shall pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the
additional amounts required to be paid by this Section. The Company
covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to
hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense
reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part
arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by
any of them in reliance on any Officer’s Certificate
furnished pursuant to this Section
10.6.

 

 

 

59

 

 

Whenever in this
Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the
principal of or any premium, interest or any other amounts on, or
in respect of, any Securities of any series, such mention shall be
deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts
provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant
hereto to the extent that, in such context, additional amounts are,
were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms,
and express mention of the payment of additional amounts (if
applicable) in any provision hereof shall not be construed as
excluding the payment of additional amounts in those provisions
hereof where such express mention is not made.

 

ARTICLE ELEVEN

REDEMPTION OF
SECURITIES

 

11.1           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
3.1 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this
Article Eleven.

 

11.2           Election
to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to
redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In
case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than
all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 15
days prior to the last date for the giving of notice of such
redemption (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and 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 (a) prior to the
expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the
terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (b)
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
Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such
restriction or condition.

 

11.3           Selection
by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all
the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all of the
Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be
redeemed), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the
Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not
previously called for redemption, by lot, pro rata or by another
method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, including
any method required by the Depository with respect to any Global
Securities (and in such manner as is not prohibited by applicable
legal requirements) and which may provide for the selection for
redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized
denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple
thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a
denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for
Securities of that series.

 

 

 

60

 

 

The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any
Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount
thereof to be redeemed. If the Securities of any series to be
redeemed consist of Securities having different dates on which the
principal is payable or different rates of interest, or different
methods by which interest may be determined or have any other
different tenor or terms, then the Company may, by written notice
to the Trustee, direct that the Securities of such series to be
redeemed shall be selected from among the groups of such Securities
having specified tenor or terms and the Trustee shall thereafter
select the particular Securities to be redeemed in the manner set
forth in the preceding paragraph from among the group of such
Securities so specified.

 

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.

 

11.4           Notice
of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more
than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security
Register.

 

All
notices of redemption shall state:

 

(a)           the
Redemption Date,

 

(b)           the
Redemption Price, or if not then ascertainable, the manner of
calculation thereof,

 

(c)           if
less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial
redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to
be redeemed,

 

(d)           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,

 

(e)           the
place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for
payment of the Redemption Price, and

 

(f)           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.

 

11.5           Deposit
of Redemption Price. Prior to 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 10.3)
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.

 

 

 

61

 

 

11.6           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 with respect to Securities of any series
as contemplated in Section 3.1,
installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to
the Redemption Date shall 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
3.7.

 

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

 

11.7           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 and 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.

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

 

The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the
terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a
“mandatory
sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of
such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any
series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund
payment.” If provided for by the terms of Securities
of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be
subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.2.
Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of
Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities
of such series.

 

 

 

62

 

 

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

 

12.3           Redemption
of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 45 days prior
to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities
(unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), the
Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for
that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and
the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering
and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.2
and stating the basis for such credit and that such Securities have
not been previously so credited, and will also deliver to the
Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days
before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select
the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date
in the manner specified in Section 11.3
and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name
of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in
Section
11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of
such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner
stated in Section 11.6
and Section
11.7.

 

ARTICLE THIRTEEN

DEFEASANCE

 

13.1           Option
to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The
Company may, at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by a
resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, and at any
time, elect to have either Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 hereof be applied
to all outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions
set forth below in this Article Thirteen, unless otherwise
established with respect to the Securities of a series pursuant to
Section
3.1.

 

13.2           Legal
Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise
under Section 13.1
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.2,
the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 13.4
hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations
with respect to all outstanding Securities on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
“Legal
Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means
that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the
entire Debt represented by the outstanding Securities, which will
thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the
purposes of Section 13.5
hereof and the other sections of this Indenture referred to in
clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other
obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the
Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall
execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the
following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder:

 

 

 

63

 

 

(a)           the
rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities to receive payments in
respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on
such Securities when such payments are due from the trust referred
to in Section 13.4
hereof;

 

(b)           the
Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under
Section
3.4, Section 3.5,
Section
3.6, Section 10.2
and Section 10.3
hereof;

 

(c)           the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee
hereunder and the Company’s obligations in connection
therewith; and

 

(d)           this
Article Thirteen.

 

Subject
to compliance with this Article Thirteen, the Company may exercise
its option under this Section 13.2
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 13.3
hereof.

 

13.3           Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under
Section
13.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.3,
the Company will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 13.4
hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the
covenants contained in Section 7.4,
Section
8.1 and Section 10.4
hereof as well as any Additional Defeasible Provisions (such
release and termination hereinafter referred to as
“Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Securities will thereafter be
deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any
direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and
the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants,
but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all
other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities
will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this
purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the
outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and
will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or
limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or
indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any
other provision herein or in any other document and such omission
to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default
under Section 5.1
hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this
Indenture and such Securities will be unaffected thereby. In
addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 13.1
hereof of the option applicable to this Section 13.3
hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section
13.4 hereof, Sections
5.1(c), 5.1(d),
5.1(e),
5.1(g)
and 5.1(h) hereof
and will not constitute Events of Default.

 

13.4           Conditions
to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. In order to exercise either
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 13.2 or Section 13.3
hereof:

 

(a)           the
Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for
the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination of cash
in U.S. dollars and non-callable U.S. Government Obligations, in
such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized investment bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent
public accountants to pay the principal of, or interest and
premium, if any, on the Outstanding Securities on the stated date
for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the
case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Securities
are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a
particular redemption date;

 

 

 

64

 

 

(b)           in
the case of an election under Section 13.2
hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that:

 

(i)           the
Company has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

 

(ii)           since
the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal
income tax law,

 

in
either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of
Counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding
Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal
income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will
be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(c)           in
the case of an election under Section 13.3
hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities
will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(d)           no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the
date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default
resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such
deposit);

 

(e)           [reserved];

 

(f)           such
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach
or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material
agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

 

(g)           the
Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the
intent of preferring the Holders of Securities over the other
creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering,
delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Company or
others;

 

(h)           the
Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate,
stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clauses (a)
through (g) of this Section 13.4
have been complied with; and

 

(i)           the
Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which
Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions,
qualifications and exclusions), stating that all conditions
precedent set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (f) of this
Section
13.4 have been complied with; provided that the Opinion of
Counsel with respect to clause (f) of this Section 13.4
may be to the knowledge of such counsel.

 

 

 

65

 

 

13.5           Deposited
Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust, Other
Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 13.6 hereof, all money
and non-callable U.S. Government Obligation (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee,
collectively for purposes of this Section 13.5, the
“Trustee”)
pursuant to Section
13.4 hereof in respect of the Outstanding Securities will be
held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment,
either directly or through any Paying Agent (including 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, premium, if any, and interest, but
such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the
extent required by law.

 

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

 

Notwithstanding
anything in this Article Thirteen to the contrary, the Trustee will
deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of
the Company any money or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations
held by it as provided in Section 13.4
hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion
delivered under Section 13.4(a)
hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be
required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance
or Covenant Defeasance.

 

13.6           Repayment.
Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then
held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Security and remaining
unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on
its request or (if then held by the Company) will be discharged
from such trust; and the Holder of such Security will thereafter be
permitted to look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all
liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such
trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof,
will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may
at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in the
New York
Times and The Wall Street Journal
(national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and
that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than
30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to
the Company.

 

 

 

66

 

 

13.7           Reinstatement.
If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States
dollars or non-callable U.S. Government Obligations in accordance
with Section 13.2 or
Section
13.3 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or
judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining,
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the
Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities
will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to Section 13.2 or
Section
13.3 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with
Section
13.2 or Section 13.3
hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company
makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the
Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such
Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

 

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

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to
be duly executed, and their respective corporate seals to be
hereunto affixed and attested, all as of the day and year first
above written.
