 The Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture to provide for the
issuance from time to time of its unsecured debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (herein called the “Securities”), unlimited as to principal amount, to bear such rates of interest, to mature at such time or times, to be
issued in one or more series and to have such other provisions as shall be fixed as hereinafter provided. 
 All things
necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Company, in accordance with its terms, have been done. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH 
 For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Securities by the
Holders thereof, it is mutually agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Securities or of any series thereof, as follows: 
 ARTICLE ONE 
 DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION 
  

	Section 101.	Definitions. 

 For all purposes of this
Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires: 
 (1)      the terms defined in this Article have the meanings assigned to them in this Article and include the plural as well as the singular; 
 (2)      all other terms used herein which are defined in the Trust Indenture Act, either directly or by
reference therein, have the meanings assigned to them therein;

 “Act”, when used with respect to any Holder, has the meaning specified in Section 104. 
 “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
the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means the power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by
contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing. 
 “Attributable Indebtedness” when used in connection with a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction involving a Principal Property means, at the time of determination, the lesser of (a) the fair market value of

remaining term thereof (including any renewal term or period for which such lease has been extended) computed by discounting from the respective due dates to such date such total net amount of rent at the rate of interest set forth or implicit in
the terms of such lease or, if not practicable to determine such rate, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average interest rate per annum borne by the Securities of each series Outstanding pursuant to this Indenture compounded semi-annually,
or (c) if the obligation with respect to the Sale and Lease-Back Transaction constitutes an obligation that is required to be classified and accounted for as a capitalized lease for financial reporting purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, the amount equal to the capitalized amount of such obligation determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and included in the financial statements of the lessee. For purposes of the
foregoing definition, rent shall not include amounts required to be paid by the lessee, whether or not designated as rent or additional rent, on account of or contingent upon maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and
similar charges. In the case of any lease that is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall be the lesser of the net amount determined assuming termination upon the first date such lease may be terminated (in

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

	Section 104.	Acts of Holders; Record Dates. 

 (a)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders
signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee
and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 
 (b)      The fact and date
of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying
that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (c)      The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (d)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder
of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be
done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 (e)      The Company may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, fix any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Securities of any series entitled to give or
take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or to vote on any action, authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series. If not set by the Company prior to the first
solicitation of a Holder of Securities of such series made by any Person in respect of any such action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date
of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 701) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date for action to be taken by the Holders of one or more series of
Securities, only the Holders of Securities of such series on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be 

  

 11 

 
entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action. With regard to any record date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities of the relevant series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to give or take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. With regard to
any action that may be given or taken hereunder only by Holders of a requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series (or their duly appointed agents) and for which a record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company may,
at its option, set an expiration date after which no such action purported to be given or taken by any Holder shall be effective hereunder unless given or taken on or prior to such expiration date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents). On or prior to any expiration date set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company may, on one or more occasions at its option, extend such date to any later
date. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent any Holder (or any duly appointed agent thereof) from giving or taking, after any expiration date, any action identical to, or, at any time, contrary to or different from, any action given or taken, or
purported to have been given or taken, hereunder by a Holder on or prior to such date, in which event the Company may set a record date in respect thereof pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the Trust Indenture Act, the
Company shall not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any action to be given or taken by Holders pursuant to Section 501, 502 or 512. 
 (f)      Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to give or take any action hereunder
with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any different
part of such principal amount. 
  

	Section 105.	Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company.

 (1)      the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or 
 (2)      the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and
mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of the Treasurer at the address of the Company’s principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in
writing to the Trustee by the Company; provided, however, that such notice shall not be deemed to be given until received by the Company. 
  

 12 

	Section 106.	Notice to Holders; Waiver. 

 Where this
Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address
as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to
mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition
precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of
regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder. 
  

	Section 107.	Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

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

	Section 108.	Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 

 The Article and Section headings herein, the Table of Contents and cross-reference sheet are for convenience only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

  

	Section 109.	Successors and Assigns. 

 All covenants
and agreements in this Indenture and the Securities by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. 
  

	Section 110.	Separability Clause. 

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

 13 

	Section 111.	Benefits of Indenture. 

 Nothing in this
Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, any Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
  

	Section 112.	Governing Law. 

 This Indenture and the
Securities shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
  

	Section 113.	Legal Holidays. 

 In any case where any
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities (other than a provision of
the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the
next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Repayment Date or at the Stated Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and
after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be. 
  

	Section 114.	No Recourse Against Others. 

 An
incorporator or any past, present or future director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on or
otherwise in respect of the Securities or the Indenture. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
  

	Section 115.	Counterparts. 

 (a)      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.

 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 303) set forth, or determined in the manner provided,
in the Officers’ Certificate referred to above or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of
additional Securities of such series. 
 If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established by action taken
pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate
setting forth the terms of the series. 
  

	Section 302.	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 301. 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 $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
  

	Section 303.	Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

 Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. The Company’s seal shall be impressed, affixed, imprinted or reproduced on the Securities and may be in facsimile form. 
  

 24 

 If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time
the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless. 
 A Security shall not be valid until an
authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order (which may provide that Securities that are the
subject thereof will be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee from time to time upon the telephonic or written order of Persons designated in said Company Order and that such Persons are authorized to determine such terms and conditions of said
Securities as are specified in the Company Order) shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201
and 301, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating: 
 (1)      if the form such
Securities has been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2)      if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to a Board
Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (3)      that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in
such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general
applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles and to such other matters as counsel may specify. 
 If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities
under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise
required pursuant to Section 301 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or 

  

 25 

 
prior to the time 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 and contemplate issuance of all Securities of such series. 
 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, and such certificate upon any Security shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, 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. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably
acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities of a series. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities of a series whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture
to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Security Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 
  

	Section 304.	Temporary Securities. 

 Until definitive
Securities of any series are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the
Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. 
 Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive
Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 1002 in a Place of Payment for that series for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of
such series, without charge to the Holder thereof. 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 one or more
definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. 
  

 26 

	Section 305.	Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange; Paying Agent. 

 The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Security Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be
presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Security Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange (the register maintained in such office and in any office or agency of the Company in a Place of
Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”). The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying
agent. 
 The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Security Registrar, Paying Agent or
co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the Trust Indenture Act. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and
address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Security Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 607. The Company or any wholly owned
Subsidiary incorporated or organized within The United States of America may act as Paying Agent, Security Registrar, co-registrar or transfer agent. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Security Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the Securities. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor.

 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any
authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, 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. 
  

 27 

 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 304, 906, 1107 or 1403 not involving any transfer. 
 In the event of any redemption, the Company shall not be
required to (a) 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 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security, or portion thereof called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any
Security being redeemed in part. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, any Global Security shall be
exchangeable pursuant to this Section 305 for Securities registered in the names of Persons other than the Depositary for such Global Security or its nominee only when (a) such Depositary notifies the Company and the Trustee in writing
that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within
90 days, (b) the Company in its sole discretion determines that Securities shall no longer be represented by a Global Security and executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable,
(c) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or an event which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security
or (d) there shall exist such other circumstances, if any, as shall be specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) above, shall be
surrendered by the Depositary, or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto, to the Trustee, as the agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for definitive Securities without charge,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities, executed by the Company, of the same series of authorized denominations and
of like tenor as the portion of such Global Security to be exchanged, which shall be in the form of registered Securities as provided in the Company Order. 
 Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security other than pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) in
the preceding paragraph, whether pursuant to this Section, Sections 304, 306, 906, 1107 or 1403 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security.

Security is surrendered to the Security Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security of the same
series if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies 

  

 28 

 
any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the
judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Security Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge
the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section
in lieu of any destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone,
and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionally with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 In case any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security,
pay such Security. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other
rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities. 
  

	Section 307.	Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

 Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 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. 
 In the case of Securities represented by a Global Security registered in the name of or held by a Depositary or its nominee, unless otherwise specified by Section 301, payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest, if any, will be made to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner or Holder of such Global Security. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent nor the
Security Registrar for such Securities will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of a beneficial ownership interest in a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or
reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which
is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been
such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
 (1)      The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest 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 

  

 29 

 
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 (2). 
 (2)      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 is 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. 
 At the option of the Company, interest on Securities of any series that bear interest may be paid
by mailing a check to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301. 
 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. 
  

	Section 308.	Persons Deemed Owners. 

 Prior to due
presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of and any premium and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301(e) and subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be
overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  

 30 

 In the case of a Global Security, so long as the Depositary for such Global Security, or
its nominee, is the registered owner of such Global Security, such Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or Holder of the Securities represented by such Global Security for all purposes under this
Indenture. Except as provided in Section 305, owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security will not be entitled to have Securities that are represented by such Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to
receive physical delivery of such Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under this Indenture. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall (a) prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or (b) impair, as between a Depositary and holders of beneficial interests in any Global Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights
of the Depositary as Holder of such Global Security. 
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security
Registrar 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 Security issued in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records
relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
  

	Section 309.	Cancellation. 

 The Company at any time
may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange. 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 Trustee and no
one else shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer, exchange or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction
to the Company unless the Company directs the Trustee to deliver canceled Securities to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  

	Section 310.	Computation of Interest. 

 Except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  

	Section 311.	Wire Transfers. 

 Notwithstanding any
other provision to the contrary in this Indenture, the Company may make any payment of moneys required to be deposited with the Trustee on 

  

 31 

 
account of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Securities (whether pursuant to optional or mandatory redemption payments, interest payments
or otherwise) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Trustee on or before the date and time such moneys are to be paid to the Holders of the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. 
  

	Section 312.	CUSIP Numbers. 

 (a)      The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” 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
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 numbers. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Securities. 
 ARTICLE FOUR 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
  

	Section 401.	Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 

 This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when 
 (1)      either 
 (A)      all
Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Securities for whose payment
money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation;
or 
 (B)      all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation 
 (i)      have become due and payable; or 
 (ii)      will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year and are not
repayable at the option of the Holder prior thereto; or 
 (iii)      are to
be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in 

  

 32 

 
the name, and at the expense, of the Company and are not repayable at the option of the Holder prior thereto; 
 and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
the purpose, lawful money of the United States or U.S. Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide lawful money not later than the due dates of principal
(and premium, if any) or interest, or any combination thereof, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium 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; 
 (2)      the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the
Company; and 
 (3)      the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 In the event there are Outstanding Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument
prepared by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to the Securities of all series to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. In the event there are two
or more Trustees hereunder, then the effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such instruments from all Trustees hereunder. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent
under Section 614 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003
shall survive. 
  

	Section 402.	Application of Trust Money. 

 Subject to
the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 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 as set forth in the Securities Register,
of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 
  

 33 

 ARTICLE FIVE 
 REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE 
 AND HOLDERS IN EVENT OF DEFAULT 
  

	Section 501.	Events of Default. 

 “Event of
Default”, wherever used herein with respect to a series of Securities, 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), except to the extent such event is specifically deleted or modified as contemplated by Section 301(w) for the
Securities of that series: 
 (1)      failure to pay the principal of (or any
premium on) any Security of that series at its Maturity; or 
 (2)      failure
to pay 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 
 (3)      failure to deposit any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series; or 
 (4)      with respect to a series of Securities, failure to perform, or the breach of, any
other covenant of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant a default in whose performance or whose breach is specifically dealt with elsewhere in this Section or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit
of a series of Securities other than that series or which has been included in this Indenture but not made applicable to the Securities of such series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given a
written notice specifying such failure or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder, 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; or 
 (5)      the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (a) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (b) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or
in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its properties, or ordering
the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 
 (6)      the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any
applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other 

  

 34 

 
similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by the Company to the entry of a decree or order for
relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against
the Company, or the filing by the Company of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by the Company to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking
possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its properties, or the making by the Company of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
the admission by the Company in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action; or 
 (7)      the occurrence of any other Event of Default established as contemplated by
Section 301 with respect to Securities of that series. 
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any Notice of Default pursuant
to this Section with respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in
such Notice of Default, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such Notice of Default. Promptly after the establishment of a record date pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall notify
the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series of the establishment of such record date. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to join in such Notice of Default, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such Notice of Default shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such Notice of Default shall automatically and without any action by any Person be
canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a Notice of Default contrary to or different from, or, after
the expiration of such period, identical to, a Notice of Default that has been canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph. 
  

	Section 502.	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 either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in 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 of such Securities as may be specified in the terms of that
series) 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) shall become
immediately due and payable. 
  

 35 

 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any
series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series,
by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if: 
 (1)      the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
 (A)      all overdue interest on all Securities of that series, 
 (B)      the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the
rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, 
 (C)      to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and 
 (D)      all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
 and 
 (2)      all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the
non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any declaration of acceleration, or any rescission and annulment of any such declaration, pursuant to
this Section with respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such
declaration, or rescission or annulment, as the case may be, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be. Promptly after the establishment of a
record date pursuant to the provisions of this Section 502, the Trustee shall notify the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series of the establishment of such record date. The Holders of Outstanding Securities of such
series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that, unless such declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective 

  

 36 

 
by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having
joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such declaration or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall automatically and without any action by any Person be canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this
paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a declaration of acceleration, or a rescission and annulment of any such declaration, contrary to or different
from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, a declaration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, that has been canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect
thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph. 
  

	Section 503.	Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

 The Company covenants that if: 
 (1)      default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; or 
 (2)      default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any
Security at the Maturity thereof; or 
 (3)      default is made in the payment
of any sinking or purchase fund or analogous obligation when the same becomes due by the terms of any Security of any series, and any such default continues for any period of grace provided with respect to any Securities of such series; 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holder of any such Security (or the Holders of any such series in the
case of clause (3) above), the whole amount then due and payable on any such Security (or on the Securities of any such series in the case of clause (3) above) for principal and any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of
such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of any such Security (or of Securities of any such series in the case of
clause (3) above); and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel. 
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee
of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the
Securities of such series and collect the money 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 

  

 37 

 
rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce
any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
  

	Section 504.	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

 In
case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all
actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments
to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount
due it for reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  

	Section 505.	Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 

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

	Section 506.	Application of Money Collected 

 Any
money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any premium or interest, upon
presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; 
  

 38 

 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 or any other Person or Persons
entitled thereto. 
 In any case where Securities are Outstanding and are denominated in more than one currency, or in a
composite currency and at least one other currency, and the Trustee is directed to make ratable payments under this Section to Holders of Securities, the Trustee shall calculate the amount of such payments as follows: (i) as of the day the
Trustee collects an amount under this Article, the Trustee shall, as to each Holder of a Security to whom an amount is due and payable under this Section which is denominated in a foreign currency or currency units, determine that amount of U.S.
Dollars that would be obtained for the amount owing such Holder, using the rate of exchange at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase U.S. Dollars in The City of New York with such amount owing,
(ii) calculate the sum of all U.S. Dollar amounts determined under (i) and add thereto any amounts due and payable in U.S. Dollars; and (iii) using the individual amounts determined in (i) or any individual amounts due and
payable in U.S. Dollars, as the case may be, as a numerator and the sum calculated in (ii) as a denominator, calculate as to each Holder of a Security to whom an amount is owed under this Section the fraction of the amount collected under this
Article payable to such Holder. Any expenses incurred by the Trustee in actually converting amounts owing to Holders of Securities denominated in a currency or composite currency other than that in which any amount is collected under this Article
shall be likewise (in accordance with this paragraph) borne ratably by all Holders of Securities to whom amounts are payable under this Section. 
 To the fullest extent allowed under applicable law, if for the purpose of obtaining judgment against the Company in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of, or any premium or
interest on the Securities of any series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), 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 New York Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The Company shall not be liable for any shortfall
nor shall it benefit from any windfall in payments to Holders of Securities under this Section caused by a change in exchange rates between the time the amount of a judgment against it is calculated as above and the time the Trustee converts the
Judgment Currency into the Required Currency to make payments under this Section to Holders of Securities, but payment of such judgment shall discharge all amounts owed by the Company on the claim or claims underlying such judgment. 
  

	Section 507.	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: 
  

 39 

 (1)      such Holder has previously given
written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 
 (2)      the Holders of not less than 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; 
 (3)      such Holder or
Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4)      the Trustee for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5)      no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee
during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 
 it being
understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to
obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
  

	Section 508.	Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, and (except as specified as contemplated by Section 301(d) and subject to Section 307) any 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. 
  

	Section 509.	Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

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

	Section 510.	Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

 Except
as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no 

  

 40 

 
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right
and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  

	Section 511.	Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

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

	Section 512.	Control by Holders. 

 The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that 
 (1)      such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 
 (2)      the Trustee shall not determine (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no obligation to make such determination) that the action so directed would be unjustly
prejudicial to Holders of Securities of that series, or any other series, not taking part in such direction, and 
 (3)      the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any Notice of Default pursuant to this Section with respect to Securities of any series, a record date shall automatically and without any other action by any
Person be set for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such Notice of Default, which record date shall be the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such Notice of Default.
Promptly after the establishment of a record date pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall notify the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series of the establishment of such record date. The Holders of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such Notice of Default, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that,
unless such Notice of Default shall have become effective by virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date (or their duly appointed agents) having joined therein on or prior to the
90th day after such record date, such Notice of 

  

 41 

 
Default shall automatically and without any action by any Person be canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder (or a
duly appointed agent thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of such 90-day period, a Notice of Default contrary to or different from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, a Notice of Default that has been canceled
pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date in respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph. 
  

	Section 513.	Waiver of Past Defaults. 

 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
default 
 (1)      in the payment of the principal of or any premium or
interest on any Security of such series, or 
 (2)      in respect of a
covenant or provision hereof which under Article 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. 
  

	Section 514.	Undertaking for Costs. 

 In any suit for
the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs
of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require
such an undertaking and that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series or to any suit instituted by any Holder in each case for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Security on or after the due date for such payment.

  

	Section 515.	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 

  

 42 

 
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

  

	Section 601.	Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 

 The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but subject to Section 107), 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. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 
  

	Section 602.	Notice of Defaults. 

 If a default occurs
hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such series notice of such default known to the Trustee as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act and in the manner provided in
Section 106; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence
thereof. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or interest on any Security (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Security, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as
a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the Security Holders. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice
or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series. 
  

	Section 603.	Certain Rights of Trustee. 

 Subject to
the provisions of Section 601: 
 (1)      in the absence of bad faith on
the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may rely and shall be 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; 
 (2)      any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the
Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
  

 43 

 (3)      whenever in the administration of
this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad
faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
 (4)      the
Trustee may consult with counsel and the written 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; 
 (5)      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 (including, without limitation, under Section 512), 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; 
 (6)      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, unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
Securities of a series affected by such matter; and 
 (7)      the Trustee may
execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys. 
  

	Section 604.	Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, if any, of any series, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and
deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder, and that the statements made by it or to be made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and
accurate. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
  

	Section 605.	May Hold Securities. 

 The Trustee, any
Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with
the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
  

 44 

	Section 606.	Money Held in Trust. 

 Subject to the
provisions of Section 1305(c) and the last paragraph of Section 1003, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for investment of or interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. Except for amounts deposited
pursuant to Article Thirteen, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid from time to time to the Company upon a Company Order. 
  

	Section 607.	Compensation and Reimbursement. 

 The
Company agrees: 
 (1)      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); 
 (2)      except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its
request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel),
except to the extent any such expense, disbursement or advance may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
 (3)      to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust
or trusts hereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to
the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. 
 As
security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for payment of
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on particular Securities. 
 “Trustee”, for purposes of
this Section, includes any predecessor Trustee, provided that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee shall not affect the rights under this Section of any other Trustee. 
  

 45 

	Section 608.	Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 

 If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign, to the
extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture, and the Company shall take prompt action to have a successor Trustee appointed in the manner provided herein. For purposes of
Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act, no Trustee hereunder will be deemed to have a conflicting interest solely by reason of being Trustee in respect of more than one series of Securities. 
  

	Section 609.	Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series, which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000, and be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Person 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 Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee 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. No obligor upon the Securities of a particular series or Person directly or indirectly
controlling, controlled by or under common control with such obligor shall serve as Trustee upon the Securities of such series. 
  

	Section 610.	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 611. 
 (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 611 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: 
  

 46 

 (1)      the Trustee shall fail to comply
with Section 608 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 
 (2)      the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder,
or 
 (3)      the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 
 then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or
(ii) subject to Section 514, 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. 
 (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 611. If, within six months 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 611, 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 611, 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 Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to Securities of any
series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 106. 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.

  

 47 

	Section 611.	Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

 (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. 
 (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. 
  

 48 

	Section 612.	Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

 Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party,
or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. In the event any Securities shall not
have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Securities, in either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and effect which this Indenture provides for
the certificate of authentication of the Trustee. 
  

	Section 613.	Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

 The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed
shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent indicated therein. 
  

	Section 614.	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 original issue and
upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, 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. 
  

 49 

 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of 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
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. 
 The Trustee agrees to pay
to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 607. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 
 This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

of Securities as of such Regular Record Date (unless the Trustee has such information), or if there is no Regular Record Date for interest for such series of Securities, semi-annually, upon such dates as are set forth in the Board Resolution or
indenture supplemental hereto authorizing such series, and 
 (2)      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 so long as the Trustee is the Security Registrar, no such list shall be required to be furnished. 
  

	Section 702.	Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders.

 (c)      Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and
holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to the names and addresses of Holders made
pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act.

Company files the same with the Commission (unless such information, documents or reports are available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor thereto)). Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the sole remedy for a breach of this Section 704 by the Company shall be established in an Officer’s Certificate or in one or more indentures supplement hereto.

more series of Securities, so long as any such addition, change or elimination not otherwise permitted hereunder shall (1) neither apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of the supplemental indenture and entitled to
the benefit of the provision nor modify the rights of the Holders of any Security with respect to the provision, or (2) become effective only when there is no such Security outstanding; 
 (h)      to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor or separate Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of this Indenture by more than one Trustee; 
 (i)      to comply with the rules of any Depositary;

code). 
  

	Section 902.	Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. 

 With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the
Company, when authorized by a Board 

  

 54 

 
Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture and any past default or compliance with any provisions may also be waived by Act
of said Holders; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, 
 (1)      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, Redemption Price or Repayment Price 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 502, or change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Security or any premium or interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption or repayment, on or after the Redemption Date or Repayment Date, as the case may be), or 
 (2)      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 
 (3)      modify any of the
provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1010, 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 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 and
Section 1010, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 611(b) and 901(d). 
 A
supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which 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 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental
indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
  

	Section 903.	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 601) shall be fully 

  

 55 

 
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. 
  

	Section 904.	Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

 Upon
the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, 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. 
  

	Section 905.	Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. 

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

	Section 906.	Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. 

 Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article 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 
 PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 
  

	Section 1001.	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. Principal, premium and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium and interest then
due. 
  

	Section 1002.	Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

 The
Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency 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 

  

 56 

 
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, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive
all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 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 each Place of Payment for Securities of any series 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. 
  

	Section 1003.	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 or 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, on or prior to each due date of the principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such
sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will (a) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and
(b) during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities of that series, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay
to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent for payment in respect of the Securities of that series. 
 The
Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such
Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from
all further liability with respect to such money. 
 All monies deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held
by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security 

  

 57 

 
of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on
Company Request (including interest income on such funds, if any), 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. 
  

	Section 1004.	Statement by Officers as to Default. 

 The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate from the principal executive, financial or accounting officer or treasurer 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 hereunder) with all conditions and covenants hereof. 
  

	Section 1005.	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 corporate 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 and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

  

	Section 1006.	Maintenance of Properties. 

 The Company
will cause all material properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be
made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as (and to the extent) in the judgment of the Company may be necessary or appropriate in connection with its business; provided, however, that nothing in
this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary
and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
  

	Section 1007.	Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 

 The
Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, within 30 days after the Company shall have received notice that the same has become delinquent (1) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon
the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary, and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a material lien upon the property of the
Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good

  

 58 

 
faith by appropriate proceedings; provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such
tax, assessment, charge or claim unless the failure to pay or discharge such tax, assessment, charge or claim would, individually or in the aggregate with all such failures, have a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as
a whole. 
  

	Section 1008.	Limitations on Liens. 

 Unless the terms
of a particular series of Securities otherwise provide, so long as any Securities of such series remain Outstanding, the Company will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, issue, incur, create, assume or guarantee any debt for borrowed money
(hereinafter referred to as “Debt”), secured by a mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien, charge or other encumbrance (mortgages, security interests, pledges, liens, charges and other encumbrances being hereinafter in this Article Ten
referred to as “lien” or “liens”) upon any Principal Property of the Company or any Subsidiary or upon any shares of stock or indebtedness of any Subsidiary that owns any Principal Property (whether such Principal Property,
shares of stock or indebtedness are now existing or owed or hereafter created or acquired) without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance, incurrence, creation, assumption or guaranty of any such Debt that the
Securities of such series (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guarantee by the Company or such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Securities of such series and then existing or thereafter created) shall
be secured equally and ratably with (or, at the Company’s option, prior to) such secured Debt until such time as such Debt is no longer secured by a lien. The preceding sentence shall not require the Company to secure any Securities of such
series if the lien consists of either of the following: 
 (a)      Permitted Liens; or

 (b)      liens securing Debt if, after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence, creation,
assumption or guaranty of such Debt (and the receipt and application of the proceeds thereof) or the securing of outstanding Debt, the sum of (without duplication) (i) the aggregate principal amount of all such Debt of the Company and its
Subsidiaries secured by liens (other than Permitted Liens) upon Principal Property of the Company or any Subsidiary or upon any shares of stock or indebtedness of any Subsidiary that owns Principal Property (or, in the case of a lien, the lesser of
such principal amount and the fair market value of the property subject to such lien, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) and (ii) all Attributable Indebtedness in respect of Sale and Lease-Back Transactions in each case not
otherwise permitted under Section 1009, at the time of determination does not exceed the greater of 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets or $800,000,000. 
  

	Section 1009.	Limitations on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions. 

 Unless the terms of a particular series of Securities otherwise provide, so long as any Securities of such series remain Outstanding, the Company will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction
unless (a) the Company or such Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Debt secured by a lien on the Principal Property involved in such transaction in an amount at least equal to the Attributable Indebtedness with respect to such Sale and
Lease-Back Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities of 

  

 59 

 
such series pursuant to Section 1008 or (b) the Company, within six months after the effective date of such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction,
applies an amount equal to the Attributable Indebtedness in respect of such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction to the defeasance or retirement (other than any mandatory retirement, mandatory prepayment or sinking fund payment or by way of payment at
maturity) of Securities or other Debt of the Company or a Subsidiary that matures more than one year after the creation of such Debt or to the purchase, construction or development of other comparable property. 
  

	Section 1010.	Waiver of Certain Covenants. 

 The
Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 1008 and 1009 with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall
extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or
condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
  

	Section 1101.	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 301 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

  

	Section 1102.	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 60 days (45
days in the case of redemption of all Securities of any series or of any series with the same (i) Stated Maturity, (ii) period or periods within which, price or prices at which and terms and conditions upon which such Securities may or
shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company or pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision or repayable at the option of the Holder and (iii) rate or rates at which the Securities bear interest, if
any, or formula pursuant to which such rate or rates accrue (collectively, the “Equivalent Principal Terms”)) prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the
Trustee of such Redemption Date of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any
restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company 

  

 60 

 
shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
  

	Section 1103.	Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 

 If fewer than all the Securities with Equivalent Principal Terms 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 (pro rata, to the extent practicable) not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee. The Trustee shall make the selection from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for
redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $2,000. Securities and portions of them the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $2,000 or any integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. 
 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. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the
redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
  

	Section 1104.	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, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to each Holder of Securities to be
redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. 
 Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Securities in
the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (1)      the Redemption
Date; 
 (2)      the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest, if
any, to be paid; 
 (3)      if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any
series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed; 
  

 61 

 (4)      in case any Security is to be
redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized
denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed; 
 (5)      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; 
 (6)      the place or places where such Securities are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; 
 (7)      that the
redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case; 
 (8)      the
“CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Securities being redeemed; and 
 (9)      that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the “CUSIP” number, ISIN, or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or
printed on the Securities. 
 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 and shall be irrevocable. 
  

	Section 1105.	Deposit of Redemption Price. 

 On or
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 1003) 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. 
  

	Section 1106.	Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 

 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the
Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date
will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
  

 62 

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

	Section 1107.	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 of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

 ARTICLE TWELVE 
 SINKING FUNDS 
  

	Section 1201.	Applicability of Article. 

 The
provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 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.” The cash amount of any sinking
fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 
  

	Section 1202.	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. 

 

 63 

	Section 1203.	Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ 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 the crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 1202 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, if any, to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment
date in the manner specified in Section 1103 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 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption
of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. 
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 
 DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
  

	Section 1301.	Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

 Section 1302 and/or Section 1303 shall apply to the Outstanding Securities of any series to the extent specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series. 
  

	Section 1302.	Defeasance and Discharge. 

 The Company
shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304, in the case of defeasance, are
satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such series and to have
satisfied all of its other obligations under the Securities of such series and this Indenture insofar as the Securities of such series are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the
same), subject to the following which shall survive until all the Securities of such series have in fact been paid in full: (a) the rights of Holders of Securities of such series to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities of such series when payments are due, and (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to
the Securities of such series under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003. Thereafter, the Company’s obligations set forth in Sections 607 and 1305 shall survive. The rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and
the provisions of this Article shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder. 
 Subject to compliance
with this Article, the Company may defease the Outstanding Securities of any series pursuant to this Section notwithstanding the prior Covenant Defeasance of the Outstanding Securities of such series pursuant to Section 1303. 
  

 64 

	Section 1303.	Covenant Defeasance. 

 The Company shall
be released from its obligations under Sections 1005 through 1009, inclusive, and the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 501(4) (with respect to any of Sections 1005 through 1009 inclusive) and 501(7) or under any covenant added with
respect to a series of Securities pursuant to Section 301 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to Outstanding Securities of any series as provided in this Section on and after the date the
conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any
term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 501(4)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any
reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such series shall be unaffected thereby. 
  

	Section 1304.	Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

 The following shall be the conditions to Defeasance pursuant to Section 1302 or Covenant Defeasance pursuant to Section 1303 of the Outstanding Securities of any series: 
 (1)      The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the
Trustee (or another trustee that satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 609 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments,
specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations that through the scheduled payment of principal
and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm
of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge each installment of principal (including mandatory sinking fund payments) of, and premium (not relating to optional
redemption), if any, and interest on, the Outstanding Securities of such series on the dates such installments of principal of, and premium (not relating to optional redemption), if any, or interest are due. 
 (2)      In the case of Defeasance under Section 1302, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date first set forth hereinabove, there has been a change
in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize gain or loss for Federal
income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the 

  

 65 

 
same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur. 
 (3)      In the case of Covenant Defeasance under Section 1303, the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to
be effected with respect to the Securities of such series and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.

 (4)      The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate to the effect that the Securities of such series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit. 
 (5)      No Event of Default or event that (after notice or lapse of time or both) would become an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time
of such deposit or, with regard to any Event of Default or any such event specified in Sections 501(5) and (6), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed
satisfied until after such 90th day). 
 (6)      Such Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act). 
 (7)      Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance (including the deposit pursuant to such
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance) shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 
 (8)      The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 (9)      Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, unless such trust shall be qualified under such Act or exempt from regulation thereunder. 
  

	Section 1305.	Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Indemnity for U.S. Government Obligations; Repayment to Company. 

 (a)      Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S.
Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and Section 1306, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the
“Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of the Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in 

  

 66 

 
accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of Securities of such series, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money so held in
trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (b)      The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the
principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities. 
 (c)      Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee and any Paying Agent shall promptly deliver or pay to the Company upon Company Request
any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by them as provided in Section 1304 with respect to Securities of any series that, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Securities of such series. 
  

	Section 1306.	Reinstatement. 

 If the Trustee or the
Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article with respect to the Securities of any series 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 of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to Securities of such series until such
time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1305 with respect to Securities of such series in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of
principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of such series following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series to receive such payment from the money
so held in trust. 
 ARTICLE FOURTEEN 
 REPAYMENT AT OPTION OF SECURITY HOLDERS 
  

	Section 1401.	Applicability of Article. 

 Securities of
any series which are repayable at the option of the Holders thereof before their Stated Maturity shall be repaid in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series) in accordance
with this Article. 
  

 67 

	Section 1402.	Repayment of Securities. 

 Each Security
which is subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holder thereof on a Repayment Date shall be repaid at the applicable Repayment Price together with interest accrued to such Repayment Date as specified pursuant to
Section 301. 
  

	Section 1403.	Exercise of Option; Notice. 

 Each Holder
desiring to exercise his option for repayment shall, as conditions to such repayment, surrender the Security to be repaid with written notice of the exercise of such option at any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, not less than
15 nor more than 30 days prior to the Repayment Date. Such notice, which shall be irrevocable, shall identify the Security to be repaid and shall specify the principal amount of such Security to be repaid, which shall be not less than the minimum
authorized denomination for such Security or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof and, in the case of a partial repayment of the Security, the denomination or denominations of the Security or Securities with Equivalent Principal Terms to
be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal of the Security surrendered which is not to be repaid. 
 Any
Security which is to be repaid 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 with Equivalent Principal Terms, 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. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the repayment of Securities shall
relate, in the case of any Security repaid or to be repaid only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Security which has been or is to be repaid. 
  

	Section 1404.	Securities Payable on the Repayment Date. 

 Notice of exercise of the option of repayment having been given and the Securities so to be repaid having been surrendered as aforesaid, such Securities shall, on the Repayment Date, become due and payable at the Repayment Price therein
specified and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of Repayment Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment in accordance with
Section 1403, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Repayment Price, together with accrued interest to the Repayment Date; provided, however, that, installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Repayment 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 307.

  

 68 

 If any Security duly surrendered for repayment shall not be so paid, the principal and
any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

 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.

 70Exhibit 10.1

 Exhibit 10.1 
 Form of Restricted Stock Award Agreement for Directors 
 MARKEL CORPORATION 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT 
 DIRECTOR AWARD 
 To: ______________________ 
 MARKEL CORPORATION (the “Company”) hereby grants you (the “Director”)              shares of Restricted Stock (the
“Shares”) under the Markel Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Shares that have not yet vested under Section 1 below, or as otherwise specifically provided herein, are forfeitable and nontransferable. The
Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) will administer this Award Agreement, and any decision of the Board will be final and conclusive. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings provided in the Plan. 
 The terms of your Award are: 
 1. Vesting
of Shares. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Agreement, the Shares will become vested and nonforfeitable on
                                (the “Vesting Date”), provided that the
Director remains a member of the Board until that time. 
 2. Forfeiture of Shares. If the Director ceases to be a member of the Board
other than by reason of death or Disability (as defined below) before the Vesting Date, the Shares will be forfeited; provided, that the Board may determine in its sole discretion that forfeiture should not occur, in whole or in part, because the
Director had an approved termination of his or her service as a Board member and may in such circumstances allow the Shares to vest, in whole or in part, on such terms as the Board deems appropriate. If the Director dies or incurs a Disability, the
Shares will become fully vested and non-forfeitable on the date of the Director’s death or Disability. 
 3. Change of Control.
Any unvested Shares will become fully vested and non-forfeitable if, after a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) and before the Vesting Date, the Director ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason other than voluntary resignation.

 4. Disability Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, the Director has incurred a “Disability” if the Director is unable
to engage in any substantial gainful activity by 

 reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in his death or can be
expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months. The Director will be deemed disabled for this purpose if determined to be totally and permanently disabled by the Social Security Administration or under a disability insurance
program that applies the same (or stricter) definition of Disability as provided herein to determine whether the Director is disabled. Otherwise, the Board will in its sole discretion determine whether the Director is disabled for this purpose.

 5. Transfer Restrictions. The Shares are not subject to sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance before the
Vesting Date. The Company will retain custody of the Shares until the Vesting Date. At the Company’s request, the Director will deliver to the Company a stock power, endorsed in blank, with respect to the Shares that will remain in effect until
the Vesting Date. 
 6. Binding Effect. Subject to the limitations stated above, this Award Agreement will be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the Director’s legatees, distributees, and personal representatives and the successors of the Company. 
 7. Change
in Capital Structure. The Shares will be adjusted as the Board determines is equitably required upon a dividend in the form of stock, spin-off, stock split-up, subdivision or consolidation of shares of Company Stock or other similar changes in
capitalization. 
 8. Interpretation. This Award Agreement will be construed under and be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia. THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA OR THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR THE COUNTY OF HENRICO, VIRGINIA WILL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OVER ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE PLAN OR THIS AWARD
AGREEMENT. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Award Agreement to be signed, effective as of the award date shown above.
