Participant elects to receive Shares, the Participant may further elect to defer receipt of all such Shares in the form of Deferred Shares. 
  

	 	3.2	Election to Defer 

  
 (a) First Plan Year. In first Plan Year in which the Participant becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, the Participant shall make an
irrevocable deferral election for that Plan Year within 30 days after initial eligibility. The election shall apply only with respect to Compensation not yet earned by the Participant as of the date the Participant submits an Election Form to the
Committee for acceptance. 
  
 (b) Subsequent Plan Years.
For each succeeding Plan Year, an irrevocable deferral election for that Plan Year shall be made by timely delivering a new Election Form to the Committee before the end of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year in which the services to which the
Compensation relate are to be performed. If no such Election Form is timely delivered for a Plan Year, the Annual Deferral Amount shall be zero for that Plan Year. 
  

 7 

	 	3.3	Adjustments to Participant’s Accounts 

  
 In accordance with, and subject to, the rules and procedures that are established from time to time by the Committee, in its sole discretion, amounts
shall be credited or debited to a Participant’s Deferral Account in accordance with the following rules: 
  
 (a) Adjustments. 
  

	 	1.	In the event of a cash dividend on Company Shares, dividend equivalents will be accrued based on the number of Deferred Shares in the Participant’s Deferred Account on the date
of record. The number of Deferred Shares in a Participant’s Deferral Account will be adjusted for the dividend equivalents (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) at least annually, as determined by the Committee.

  

	 	2.	In the event of a Share split, a Share dividend or a similar change in the Company Shares, the number of Deferred Shares in a Participant’s Deferral Account will be adjusted
(and rounded down to the nearest whole number) in accordance with the terms of the U-Store-It Trust 2004 Equity Incentive Plan or any successor plan thereto. 

  
 (b) No Actual Investment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary,
the Deferred Shares, the allocation to his or her Deferral Account, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Deferral Account shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an
actual investment of his or her Deferral Account in Shares. In the event that the Company, in its own discretion, decides to invest funds to provide for the delivery of the Shares, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments
themselves. Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Deferral Account shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Company; the Participant shall at all times
remain an unsecured creditor of the Company. 
  
 (c) Expenses. The Company shall be responsible for all reasonable administrative expenses of the Plan. 
  
 (d) Vesting. A Participant shall at all times be 100% vested in his or her Deferral Account. 
  
 (e) Shareholder Rights. Participants do not have the
rights of a shareholder with respect to Deferred Shares credited to his or her Deferral Account unless and until the Shares relating to such Deferred Shares have been delivered to the Participant. In addition, Participants do not have the right to
make an election pursuant to Code Section 83(b) and any attempt to make such an election will result in the forfeiture of the Deferred Shares. 
  

 8 

	 	3.4	Taxes 

  
 In the event the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the deferral or
distribution of the Shares, the Company will have the right to (i) require that the Participant arrange to have such payments made to the Company; or (ii) withhold such amounts from other payments due to the Participant from the Company. 

 
 ARTICLE 4 – BENEFIT DISTRIBUTIONS 
  

	 	4.1	Distribution Events 

  
 A Participant shall receive a distribution from his or her Deferral Account of his or her Annual Deferrals as soon as administratively feasible upon
Separation from Service. 
  
 Each year’s Annual Deferral
shall have a separate Election Form in which the Participant may elect the Distribution Event and Form of Distribution, in accordance with section 4.2. 
  

	 	4.2	Form of Distribution 

  
 Upon a Distribution Event as described in Section 4.1, a distribution shall be made from the Participant’s Deferral Account in the accordance with
the form of distribution selected by the Participant on the Election Form. The Plan permits distributions in the form of lump sum, Annual Installment payments not to exceed three years, or a combination of lump sum and Annual Installment payments
not to exceed three years. 
  
 ARTICLE 5 - BENEFICIARY
DESIGNATION 
  

	 	5.1	Beneficiary Designation 

  
 The Company may permit a Participant to designate a Beneficiary on a form therefore prescribed by the Company on which the Participant may designate a
Beneficiary (and change a previous designation) by filing the prescribed form with the Company. If so prescribed by the Company, such form may allow the designation of multiple Beneficiaries and/or a successor Beneficiary or successor Beneficiaries.
The consent of any current Beneficiary is not required for a change of Beneficiary, and no Beneficiary has any rights under this Plan except as are provided by its terms. The rights of a Beneficiary who predeceases the Participant who designated him
immediately terminate. Unless a Beneficiary has been designated in accordance with this Section and such Beneficiary survives the Participant, the Beneficiary of any Participant is his estate. 
  

 9 

 ARTICLE 6 - TERMINATION, AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION 
  

	 	6.1	Company’s Right to Amend or Terminate Plan 

  
 The Committee may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, amend, in whole or in part, any of the provisions of the Plan or may
terminate it as a whole or with respect to any Participant or group of Participants. Any such amendment or termination by the Committee is binding upon all affected Participants and Beneficiaries, and all other parties in interest. Any action of the
Committee amending or terminating the Plan becomes effective as of the date specified therein. The Committee will provide written notice of any such amendment or termination of the Plan to the Committee and any affected Participant as soon as
practicable following the adoption of such amendment or termination. 
  
 ARTICLE 7 - ADMINISTRATION 
  

	 	7.1	Administrator

authorities, powers, and responsibilities with respect to the Plan. To the extent certain authorities, powers, and responsibilities are carried out by the Committee, it will act by a majority of its members at the time in office and may take action
either by vote at a meeting or by consent in writing without a meeting. All authority, powers and responsibilities of the Company under the Plan will be exercised by the Company or the Committee, as the case may be, in its sole discretion.

  

	 	7.2	Powers of the Company

	 	(b)	to prescribe, amend, and rescind rules for the administration of the Plan to the extent not inconsistent with the terms thereof; 

  

	 	(c)	to appoint such individuals and subcommittees as it deems desirable for the conduct of its affairs and the administration of the Plan; 

  

	 	(d)	to delegate to officers or employees of the Company who are not Participants, part or all of its authority, powers, and responsibilities under the Plan, upon such terms as it deems
advisable; 

  

	 	(e)	to employ counsel, accountants, actuaries, and other consultants to aid in exercising its powers and carrying out its duties under the Plan; and 

  

	 	(f)	to perform any other acts necessary and proper for the conduct of its affairs and the administration of the Plan. 

  

 10 

	 	7.3	Determinations by the Company 

  
 The Company, or Committee if one is so appointed, will interpret and construe the Plan, Beneficiary Election Form and the Election Form. The
Company’s and/or Committee’s interpretations and determinations will be conclusive and binding on all Participants, Beneficiaries and any other persons claiming an interest under the Plan. 
  

	 	7.4	Indemnification 

  
 The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each officer, Trustee, and employee of the Company who is appointed to the Committee or who otherwise
performs any duties of the Company with respect to the Plan against any and all expenses and liabilities arising out of such member’s action or failure to act in such capacity, excepting only expenses and liabilities arising out of such
individual’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. 
  

	 	(a)	Expenses and liabilities against which an appointed individual is indemnified hereunder will include, without limitation, the amount of any settlement or judgment, costs, counsel
fees, and related charges reasonably incurred in connection with a claim asserted or a proceeding brought against him or the settlement thereof. 

  

	 	(b)	This right of indemnification will be in addition to any other rights to which an appointed individual may be entitled. 

  

	 	(c)	The Company may, at its own expense, settle any claim asserted or proceeding brought against an appointed individual when such settlement appears to be in the best interests of the
Company, with such individual’s consent which will not be unreasonably withheld. 

  

	 	7.5	Expenses of the Committee 

  
 In the event the Company appoints a Committee, the members of the Committee who are employees of the Company will serve without compensation for services
as such. All expenses of the Committee will be paid by the Company. 
  
 ARTICLE 8 - TRUST PROVISIONS 
  

	 	8.1	Establishment of the Trust 

  
 The Company is permitted, in its discretion, but not required to establish a Trust to provide for the benefits under this Plan. Except as otherwise
provided in the Trust Agreement, no portion of the Trust Fund will be used for any purpose other than payment of a Participant’s Deferral Account pursuant to Article 4 of the Plan, and the payment of expenses of the Trust. 
  

 11 

	 	8.2	Trust Status 

  
 Any trust established under this Plan is intended to be a grantor trust, within the meaning of Section 671 of the Code, of which the Company is the
grantor, and the Plan is to be construed in accordance with that intention. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Trust Fund will remain the property of the Company and will be subject to the claims of its creditors in the event of
its bankruptcy or insolvency. No Participant or person claiming through a Participant will have any priority claim on the Trust Fund or any security interest or other right superior to the rights of a general creditor of the Company. 
  
 ARTICLE 9 - MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	 	9.1	Unsecured General Creditor 

  
 Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets
of the Company other than as unsecured general creditors of the Company. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of the Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the
Company.

mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and
non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any
other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise. 
  

 12 

	 	9.3	Not a Contract of Employment 

  
 The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Company and the Participant. Nothing in this
Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time. 
  

	 	9.4	Furnishing Information 

  
 A Participant or his or her Beneficiary will cooperate with the Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the Committee and take such
other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.

 Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply;

Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding TIA
Section 316(c), such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and not
later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at
the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or 

  

 11 

 
consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be
computed as of such record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
then eleven months after the record date. 
  
 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, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security. 
  
 Section 1.05. Notices, Etc., To Trustee and Company. Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with: 
  
 (a) 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 the address of its Corporate Trust Office specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture, Attention: Corporate Trust Department; 
  
 (b) 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 it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture or at any other
address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company, Attention: Chief Financial Officer (with a copy to the Company’s general counsel); or (c) either the Trustee or the Company, by the other party shall be sufficient for every
purpose hereunder if given by facsimile transmission, receipt confirmed by telephone followed by an original copy delivered by guaranteed overnight courier; if to the Trustee at facsimile number (651)495-8097; and if to the Company at facsimile
number                     . 
  
 Section 1.06. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to Holders of Registered Securities by the Company or the Trustee,
such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later
than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in
any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have
been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. 
  
 If by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification to Holders of Registered Securities as shall be made
with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. 
  
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any
published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication. 
  
 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.

any number of counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Indenture. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Indenture by facsimile shall
be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Indenture. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Indenture by facsimile shall also deliver an original executed counterpart of this Indenture but the
failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability and binding effect of this Indenture. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect
the construction hereof.

covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 
  
 Section 1.09. Severability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in any Security 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.

Authenticating Agent and their successors hereunder and the Holders any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

to agreements made and to be performed therein. This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the TIA that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such provisions. 
  
 Section 1.12. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption
Date, Repayment Date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security or the last date on which a Holder has the right to convert or exchange a Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of
this Indenture or any Security other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu hereof), payment of interest or any Additional Amounts or principal (and premium, if any) or
conversion or exchange of such security need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but (except as otherwise provided in the supplemental indenture with respect to such Security) 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, Repayment Date or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity, or on such last day of conversion or exchange, provided that no interest shall accrue on
the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be.

director, as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance of the Securities by the Holders and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
  
 Section 1.14. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits,
qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof which is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required 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.

provide that it or they shall represent the aggregate amount of all Outstanding Securities of such series (or such lesser amount as is permitted by the terms thereof) from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount
of Outstanding Securities of such series represented thereby may from time to time be increased or decreased to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of any Global Security to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in

Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 3.03.

 Any Global Security authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend
in substantially the following form: 
  
 This Security is a Global Security within
the meaning set forth in the Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of a Depository or a nominee of a Depository. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a person other than the Depository or
its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the

Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened, without the consent of the Holders, for issuances of additional Securities of such series. 
  
 If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established by action taken pursuant

setting forth the terms of the Securities of such series. 
  

 17 

 Section 3.02. Denominations. The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations as shall be
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. With respect to Securities of any series denominated in Dollars, in the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series, other than Securities
issued in global form (which may be of any denomination), shall be issuable in denominations of $5,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
  
 Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President
or one of its Executive or Senior Vice Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon, and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile
signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities. 
  
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices before the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
  
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

  
 If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time and if
the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series shall so permit, such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the Trustee for the issuance of such Securities and determining the terms of particular Securities of
such series, such as interest rate or formula, maturity date, date of issuance and date from which interest shall accrue. 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 TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d)) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 
  
 (a) an Opinion of Counsel stating that: 
  
 (i) the form or forms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
  
 (ii) the terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of
this Indenture; 
  
 (iii) such Securities, when completed by appropriate
insertions and executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication in accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company in the manner and
subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general equitable principles; and 
  
 (b) an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of the
Securities have been complied with and that, to the best of the knowledge of the signers of such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing. 
  
 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, obligations or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
  

 18 

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.01 and of the preceding paragraph, if all the Securities of any series are
not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or a Company Order, or an Opinion of Counsel or an Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to
the preceding paragraph at the time of issuance of each Security of such series, but such order, opinion and certificates, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the
first Security of such series. 
  
 Each Registered Security shall be dated the
date of its authentication as contemplated by Section 3.01. 
  
 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 duly executed by the Trustee by manual
signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security (including a Global Security) shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for
cancellation as provided in Section 3.09 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for
all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon
Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities
in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such
Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global form. 
  
 Except in the case of temporary Securities (which shall be exchanged as otherwise provided herein or as otherwise provided in or pursuant to a Board Resolution), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the
Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities
of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 3.05. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or in any office
or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment a register for each series of Securities (the registers maintained in such office or in any such office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes referred to collectively as
the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or
any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, is hereby initially appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of
Securities on such Security Register as herein provided. If the Trustee shall cease to be Security Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.05, upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any Registered 

  

 19 

 
Security of any series at any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding, and containing identical terms and provisions. 
  
 Subject to the
provisions of this Section 3.05, at the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, containing
identical terms and provisions, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any such 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. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any permanent Global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the depositary for any permanent Global Security is DTC, then, unless the terms of
such Global Security expressly permit such Global Security to be exchanged in whole or in part for definitive Securities, a Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to a nominee of DTC, or by a nominee of DTC to DTC, or to
a successor to DTC for such Global Security selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor to DTC. If at any time DTC notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the applicable Global
Security or Securities or if at any time DTC ceases to be a Clearing Agency, if so required by applicable law or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor depositary with respect to such Global Security or Securities. If (a) a successor
depositary for such Global Security or Securities is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such unwillingness, inability or ineligibility, (b) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the beneficial owners representing a majority in principal amount of the applicable series of Securities represented by such Global Security or Securities advise DTC to cease acting as depositary for such Global Security or Securities
or (c) the Company, in its sole discretion, determines at any time that all Outstanding Securities (but not less than all) of any series issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global
Security or Securities, then the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, definitive Securities of like series, rank, tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
such Global Security or Securities. If any beneficial owner of an interest in a permanent Global Security is otherwise entitled to exchange such interest for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized form
and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 and provided that any applicable notice provided in the permanent Global Security shall have been given, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date
on which such interest may be so exchanged, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, definitive Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such beneficial owner’s interest in such
permanent Global Security. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such permanent Global Security shall be surrendered for exchange by DTC or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with
respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities to be redeemed and
ending on the relevant Redemption Date if the Security for which exchange is requested may be among those selected for redemption. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent Global Security after the close of
business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date or (ii) any Special Record Date and the opening of business
at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in
respect of such Registered Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent Global Security is payable in
accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
  

 20 

 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 Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the
Company or the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer (including evidence of title and identity) in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee, the Company’s designated agent (if any) and
the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
  
 A minimal service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, and the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06, 11.07 or 13.05 not involving any transfer. 
  
 The Company or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required to (a) issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security if such
Security may be among those selected for redemption during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before date of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption and ending at the close of business on the date of the mailing of the
relevant notice of redemption or, if such Securities are also issuable as Registered Securities and there is no publication, the date of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (b) register the transfer of or exchange any Registered
Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Registered Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed; provided, however, that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously
surrendered for redemption or (d) issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid. 
  
 Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated
Security is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company, together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them or any agent of either of them harmless, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, appertaining to the
surrendered Security. 
  
 If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the
Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new
security of the same series and principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, pay such Security. 
  
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
  
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any
destroyed, lost or stolen Security, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
  

 21 

 The provisions of this Section 3.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
  
 Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Reserved. Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01, interest on any Registered
Security that 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 at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02; provided, however, that each installment of interest on any Registered Security may at the Company’s option be paid by
(a) mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.08, to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register or (b) wire transfer to an account maintained
by the payee located inside the United States. 
  
 Unless otherwise provided as
contemplated by Section 3.01, every permanent Global Security will provide that interest, if any, payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to DTC with respect to that portion of such permanent Global Security held for its account by Cede
& Co, for the purpose of permitting such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such permanent Global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01, any interest on any
Registered Security of any series that 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 registered Holder thereof on
the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election, in each case as provided in clause (a) or (b) below: 
  
 (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose
names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Registered Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment (which shall not be less than 20 days after such notice is received by the
Trustee), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) 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 on or
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. The Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the
Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment, but such publications shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities)
are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 
  
 (b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
Securities exchange on which such Securities 

  

 22 

 
may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee or the proposed payment
pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
  
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 and Section 3.05, 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 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Registered 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 Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest on, such Registered Security and for all
other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Registered 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. All such payments so made to any such
Person, or upon such Person’s order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for money payable upon any such Security. 
  
 No Holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a
depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security and such depositary shall be treated by the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all
purposes whatsoever. 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
Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall 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 any depositary, as a Holder, with respect to such Global Security or impair, as between such depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Global
Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Security. 
  
 Section 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or exchange or
conversion or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall
be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the
Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. If
the Company shall so acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for
cancellation. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. Cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed
by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Company, unless the Trustee is otherwise directed by a Company Order. 
  
 Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to Securities of any series, interest on the
Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
  

 23 

 ARTICLE IV 
  

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  
 Section 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of
Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such series herein expressly provided for and any right to receive Additional Amounts, as provided in Section
10.10), and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, and at the expense of the Company, shall execute instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to

 and
the Company, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose an amount in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, 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; 
  
 (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 
  
 (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions

obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.11 and, if money shall have been deposited with and held by the Trustee pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 4.01, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the
last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive. 
  
 Section 4.02. Application of
Trust Funds. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 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 as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto of the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest and Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has been
deposited with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors and the term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or other similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  
 Section 5.02. 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 and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 51% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may
declare the principal amount (or, if Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all 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 the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal or specified portion thereof shall become immediately due and payable. 
  
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series
has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by
written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration of acceleration and its consequences if: 
  
 (a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay in the currency, currency unit or composite currency in which the Securities of such series

series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 
  
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. If any Event of Default described in Section 5.01 of
this Indenture shall occur and be continuing with respect to any series, the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series in addition to taking those
actions set forth elsewhere in this Article V, do one or more of the following:

 (b) sell the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interests therein
at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; 
  

 26 

 (c) institute proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the

Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the
property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities of any series shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
  
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided
for in the Securities of such series, of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
  
 (b) to collect and receive any money 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 of Securities of such series to make such
payments to the Trustee, and if the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and any
predecessor Trustee, their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.06. 
  
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security in any such proceeding. 
  
 In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the
interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Securities parties to any
such proceedings. 
  
 Section 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without
Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of 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 and its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
  

 27 

 Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V shall
be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest and any Additional Amounts, 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 and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.06; 
  
 SECOND, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities for the principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any Additional Amounts payable, 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 aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any), interest and
Additional Amounts, respectively; and 
  
 THIRD, to the payment of the remainder,
if any, to the Company. 
  
 Section 5.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of
any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
  
 (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of
Default with respect to the Securities of that series; 
  
 (b) the Holders of not
less than 51% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
  
 (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
  
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
  
 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 
  
 it being
understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to
obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 
  
 Section 5.08. Unconditional Rights of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium, if any,
Interest and Additional Amounts. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and
(subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest on, and any Additional Amounts in respect of, such Security on the respective due dates 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 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding,
be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
  

 28 

 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  
 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any
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 V 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 of Securities. 
  
 Section 5.12. Control by Holders of Securities. The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 
  
 (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

  
 (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which
is not inconsistent with such direction; and 
  
 (c) the Trustee need not take any
action which might involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Securities of such series not joining therein. 
  
 Nothing in this Indenture shall impair the right of the Trustee in its discretion to take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such
direction by Holders. 
  
 Section 5.13. 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: 
  
 (a) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any)
or interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security of such series; or 
  
 (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
  
 Upon any such waiver, 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 5.14. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force,
which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede
the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
  

 29 

 Section 5.15. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as
Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such
suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 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 any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 THE TRUSTEE 
  
 Section 6.01. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c),
notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on or any
Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of such series, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to the Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as Responsible
Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of the Securities of such series; and provided further that in the case of any default or breach of the character specified in
Section 5.01(d) with respect to the Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section 6.01, 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 the Securities of such series. 
  
 Section 6.02. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d): 
  
 (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties; 
  
 (b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein
shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than delivery of any Security to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant to Section 3.03 which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and any
resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
  
 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other
evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate; 
  
 (d) 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; 
  
 (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or power vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this
Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

  

 30 

 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series; provided that, if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the
opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expenses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the
reasonable expenses of every such examination shall be paid by the Holders or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Holders upon demand. The Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, relevant to the facts or matters that are the subject of
its inquiry, personally or by agent or attorney; 
  
 (g) the Trustee may execute
any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with
due care by it hereunder; 
  
 (h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion, rights or power conferred upon it by this Indenture; 
  
 (i) except with respect to Section 10.01, the Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Company with respect to the
covenants contained in Article 10. In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default except (a) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Section 10.01, 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) or (b) any Event of Default of which the
Trustee shall have received written notification or obtained actual knowledge; and 
  
 (j) delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee under Section 7.03 is for information purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained
therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants, as to which Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on the certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.07.

  
 The Trustee shall not be required 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. 
  
 Except during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee undertakes to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 
  
 Section 6.03. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals
contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness.
The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and
perform its obligations hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
  

 31 

 Section 6.04. May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent 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 TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or such other agent. 
  
 Section 6.05. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received
by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. 
  
 Section 6.06.
Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees: 
  
 (a) to pay to the
Trustee, solely from amounts on deposit in the Funding Account pursuant to Section 7.05(a)(ii), from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in
regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
  
 (b) except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, solely from amounts on deposit in the Funding Account pursuant to Section 7.05(a)(ii), to reimburse each of the Trustee and any predecessor 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 reasonable expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
  
 (c) to
indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its own part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the trust or trusts 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. 
  
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default
specified in Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 
  
 As security for the
performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section 6.06, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and money held or collected by the Trustee as such, except money held in trust for the payment of
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on particular Securities. 
  
 The
provisions of this Section 6.06 shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 
  
 Section 6.07. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility; Conflicting Interests. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 6.07, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.07, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI. Neither the Company nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by, or under common control with, the Company shall serve as Trustee. 
  
 Section 6.08. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.09. 
  

 32 

 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 an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 The Trustee may be removed at any
time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 
  
 If at any time: 
  
 (a) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or by any
Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months; or 
  
 (b) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.07 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at
least six months; or 
  
 (c) 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 or pursuant to a Board
Resolution may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities or (ii) subject to TIA Section 315(e), any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
  
 If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall
occur in the office of Trustee for any cause with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to 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). If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, 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 of
Securities and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder of a Security 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 Securities of such series. 
  
 The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address
of its Corporate Trust Office. 
  
 Section 6.09. Acceptance of Appointment by
Successor. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment, and 

  

 33 

 
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 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, subject
nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 6.06. 
  
 In case of
the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto, pursuant to Article IX, wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (a) 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, (b) 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 (c) 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 as 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. 
  
 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 this Section 6.09, as the case may be. 
  
 No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VI. 
  
 Section 6.10. 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 of 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 VI, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part 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 case 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 6.11. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. At any time
when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such
series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption or repayment thereof, and 

  

 34 

 
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. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. 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 bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing
business and in good standing under the laws of the United States or of any state 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 authorities. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 6.11, 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. In case at any time an
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.11, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.11. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the initial Authenticating Agent shall be the Trustee. 
  
 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 6.11, without the execution
or filing of any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
  
 An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at
any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination 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 6.11, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such
appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 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 herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this
Section 6.11. 
  
 The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time
to time reasonable compensation, including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section 6.11. 
  
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section 6.11, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in
lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form: 
  
 This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 Section 6.12. Additional Duties of
Trustee. In addition to the other duties set forth in this Indenture, the Trustee as trustee for the Holders shall: 
  
 (a) Release. The Trustee shall upon written request from the Company in the form of Exhibit C hereto and subject to the provisions of this Indenture, take all
actions reasonably necessary to effect the release of any Collateral from the lien of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or a Board Resolution adopted in accordance with Section 3.01 hereof, to the extent the terms hereof permit the sale,
disposition or transfer of such Collateral. 
  
 (b) Action Upon Event of
Default . Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 5.03, take any action and to execute any instrument which the Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to enforce, collect and dispose of
the Collateral and to enforce the Transaction Documents, including the authority to: 
  
 (i) ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquaintance and receipts for money due and to become due under or in respect to any of the Collateral; 
  
 (ii) receive, endorse, collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) above or
otherwise; 
  
 (iii) file any claims or take any action or institute any
proceedings which the Trustee may deem necessary or desirable for the collection or liquidation of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the right to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders with respect to any of the Collateral; and

  
 (iv) notify the borrower of the Company’s collateral assignment and/or
grant of a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the Real Property to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders and cause such Persons to remit payments directly to the Trustee and its designee. 
  
 The Company hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney granted
pursuant to this Section 6.12(b) is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. 
  
 (c) Payment on the Securities . The Trustee shall pay the interest and principal on the Securities when due and payable and, unless otherwise specified in a supplemental indenture or Board Resolution adopted pursuant to Section 3.01
hereof, the principal and any accrued interest on any of (a) a redemption, retirement, repayment or defeasance of Securities pursuant to Articles XI, XII, XIII or XIV hereof, in each case, from cash or other amounts available in the Securities
Payment Account. The Trustee has no duty or obligation to pay the Securities from its own funds, assets or corporate capital or to make inquiry regarding, or investigate the use of amounts, disbursed from the Securities Payment Account pursuant to
Section 7.05(c)(v). 
  
 Section 6.13. Appointment of Co Trustee or Separate
Trustee. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the trust fund or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Company and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and
deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co trustee or co trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the trust fund, 

  

 36 

 
and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the trust fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 6.13, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Company and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Company shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a
request to do so, or in case an Event of Default in respect of the Company shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet
the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee as set forth in this Indenture and no notice to Holders of Securities of the appointment of co trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under this Indenture. 
  
 (b) In the case of any appointment of a co trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this
Section 6.13 all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co trustee jointly, except to the extent that
under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations (including the holding of title to the trust fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co trustee at the direction of the Trustee. 
  
 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been
given to each of the then separate trustees and co trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VI. Each
separate trustee and co trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject
to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

  
 (d) Any separate trustee or co trustee may, at any time, constitute the
Trustee, its agent or attorney in fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

  
 (e) The appointment of a co trustee or separate trustee under this Section
6.13 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties, liabilities and responsibilities hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE VII

 Section 8.01 Consolidations and Mergers of Company and Sales, Leases and Conveyances
Permitted Subject to Certain Conditions. The Company may consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets to, or merge with or into any other entity, provided that in any such case (a) either the Company shall be
the continuing entity, or the successor entity (if other than the Company) formed by or resulting from any such consolidation or merger or which shall have received the transfer of such assets shall be an entity organized and existing under the laws
of the United States or a state thereof and such successor entity shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest (including all Additional Amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section

IX, satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such entity and (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and treating any 

  

 38 

 
indebtedness which becomes an obligation of such successor entity, the Company or any Subsidiary as a result thereof as having been incurred by such
successor entity, the Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing.

  
 Section 8.02. Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation. In case of
any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance and upon any such assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein
as the party of the first part, and the predecessor corporation, except in the event of a lease, shall be relieved of any further obligation under this Indenture and the Securities. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed, and
may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor
corporation, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the
officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Securities so issued shall in all respects have
the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

provisions of this Article VIII and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
  
 Section 9.01. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. Without the consent of any Holders of Securities, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to
time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes: 
  
 (a) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein and in the Securities;

power herein conferred upon the Company; 
  
 (c) to add any additional Events of
Default for the benefit of the Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such Events of Default are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such Events of Default are expressly being included solely for the
benefit of such series); provided, however, that in respect of any such additional Events of Default such supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in
the case of other defaults), may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default, may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such default or may limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of that or
those series of Securities to which such additional Events of Default apply to waive such default; 
  

 39 

 (d) [Reserved]; 
  
 (e) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture, provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no Security

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 or different Trustees; 
  
 (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be
defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however,
that such provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any series in any material respect; or 
  
 (j) to supplement any of the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of any series of
Securities pursuant to Sections 4.01, 14.02 and 14.03; provided, however, that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series or any other series of Securities in any material respect.

  
 Section 9.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Outstanding Securities of a series, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and

manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby: 
  
 (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or any
installment of principal of or interest on, any Security; or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate or amount of interest thereon or any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or
change any obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.10 (except as contemplated by Section 8.01(a) and permitted by Section 9.01(a)), or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that
would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 or the amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 5.04, or adversely affect any right of repayment of the Holder of any
Security, or change any Place of Payment where, or the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which, the principal of any Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right
to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder, on or after the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may be);

  
 (b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required

 (c) create any lien on the Collateral securing the Securities except as otherwise provided herein; or 
  
 (d) modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or Section 5.13, except to increase the required percentage to effect such action 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. 
  
 It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient
if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
  
 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. 
  
 Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental
indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise. 
  
 Section 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indenture.
Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article IX, 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
that are theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. 
  
 Section 9.05. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 

 
 Section 9.06. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures. Securities of any
series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX 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. 
  
 Section 9.07. Trustee To Act On Instructions. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary (other than Section 9.02), in the event the Trustee is uncertain as to the intention or application of any
provision of this Indenture or such intention or application is ambiguous as to its purpose or application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision hereof, or if this Indenture permits or does not prohibit any
determination by the Trustee or is silent or incomplete as to the course of action which the Trustee is required or is permitted or may be permitted to take with respect to a particular set of facts or circumstances, the Trustee shall, at the
expense of the Issuer, request and rely upon the following: (a) written instructions of the Issuer directing the Trustee to take certain actions or refrain from taking certain actions, which written instructions shall contain a certification that
the taking of such actions or refraining from taking certain actions is in the best interest of the Holders, and (b) a written statement from the rating agency, if any, that the proposed action or inaction will not have an adverse effect on the
rating, if any, then assigned to the applicable series of Securities. In such case, the Trustee shall have no liability to 

  

 41 

 
the Issuer or the Holders for, and the Issuer hereby holds harmless the Trustee from, any liability, costs or expenses arising from or relating to any action
taken by the Trustee acting upon such instructions, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to the Holders with respect to any such liability, costs or expenses. 
  
 ARTICLE X 
  
 COVENANTS; REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Section 10.01. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, Interest and Additional Amounts. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each
series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of Securities
and this Indenture. Unless otherwise specified with respect to Securities of any series pursuant to Section 3.01, at the option of the Company, all payments of principal may be paid by check to the registered Holder of the Registered Security or
other person entitled thereto against surrender of such Security. 
  
 Section
10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company shall 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 or conversion, where
Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt
written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of each such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address
thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 
  
 The Company may 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 of such purposes, and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in accordance with the
requirements set forth above for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.
Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to a series of Securities, the Company hereby designates as a Place of Payment for each series of Securities the office or agency of the Trustee,
initially in the City of Denver, Colorado, and initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as Paying Agent in such city and as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
  
 Section 10.03. 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 any Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on or Additional Amounts in respect of, any of the Securities of that
series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as
otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest or Additional Amounts 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 before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on or Additional Amounts in respect
of, any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum (in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if
any) or interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest or Additional Amounts and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
  

 42 

 The Company will cause each Paying Agent 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 10.03, that such Paying Agent will: 
  
 (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest or Additional Amounts on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 
  
 (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any such payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series;
and 
  
 (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
  
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums
held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms 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 sums. 
  
 Except as otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, or any
Additional Amounts in respect of, any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any), interest or Additional amounts has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon Company
Request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment of such principal of (and premium, if any) or
interest on, or any Additional Amounts in respect of, any Security, without interest thereon, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as Trustee thereof, shall
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper, notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
  
 Section 10.04. Existence. Subject to Article VIII, the Company will do or cause to be
done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, all material rights (by certificate of incorporation, bylaws and statute) and material franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to preserve any right or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company. 
  
 Section 10.05. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will cause all of its 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 in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that the Company and its Subsidiaries
shall not be prevented from selling or otherwise disposing of their properties for value in the ordinary course of their business. 
  
 Section 10.06. Insurance. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep in force upon all of its properties and operations policies of
insurance carried with responsible companies in such amounts and covering all such risks as shall be customary in the industry in accordance with prevailing market conditions and availability. 
  

 43 

 Section 10.07. Statement as to Compliance. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end
of each Fiscal Year, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of the Company’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this
Indenture and, in the event of any noncompliance, specifying such noncompliance and the nature and status thereof. For purposes of this Section 10.09, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice
under this Indenture. 
  
 Section 10.08. Additional Amounts. If any
Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of such series Additional Amounts as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. Whenever in this Indenture there is
mentioned, in any context except in the case of Section 5.02(a), the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or the net proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Security of any
series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established pursuant to Section 3.01 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be
payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express
mention is not made. 
  
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section
3.01, if the Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to that series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior
to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal and any premium is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal and any premium or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in
the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, the Company will furnish the Trustee and the Company’s principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such
Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of and any premium or interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series who are not United States Persons without withholding for or on
account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of the series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be
withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities of that series and the Company will pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by the terms of such Securities. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case may
be, shall not so receive the above-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, then the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall be entitled (a) to assume that no such withholding or deduction is required with respect to any payment of principal or interest
with respect to any Securities of a series until it shall have received a certificate advising otherwise and (b) to make all payments of principal and interest with respect to the Securities of a series without withholding or deductions until
otherwise advised. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in
connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them or in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 10.10 or in reliance on the Company’s not furnishing such an Officers’ Certificate. 
  
 Section 10.09. Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in any particular
instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 10.04 to 10.06, inclusive, if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities of such
series, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant 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 XI 
  

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
  
 Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their
terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article XI. 
  
 Section 11.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution.
In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all of the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 30 days prior to the giving of the notice of redemption in Section 11.04 (unless a shorter notice shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such
redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
  
 Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. If less than all the
Securities of any series issued on the same day with the same terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of
such series issued on such date with the same terms not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum
authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series. 

 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than
itself) 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 Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed. 
  
 Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.06, not less than 45
days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is agreed to by the Trustee in writing, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, but failure to give such notice in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any
Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other such Security or portion thereof. 
  
 Any notice that is mailed to the Holders of Securities in the manner herein provided shall be
conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. 
  
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
  
 (a) the
Redemption Date; 
  
 (b) the Redemption Price, accrued interest to the Redemption
Date payable as provided in Section 11.06, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any; 
  
 (c) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed; 
  
 (d) 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 will receive, without a 

  

 45 

 
charge, a new Security or Securities or authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed; 
  
 (e) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price and accrued interest to the Redemption
Date payable as provided in Section 11.06, if any, will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date; 
  
 (f) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities, maturing after the Redemption Date,
are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any, or for conversion; 
  
 (g) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case; 
  
 (h) the CUSIP number of such Security, if any; and 
  
 (i) if applicable, that a Holder of Securities who desires to convert Securities for redemption must satisfy the requirements for conversion contained in such Securities, the then-existing conversion price or rate, the place or places where
such Securities may be surrendered for conversion, and the date and time when the option to convert shall expire. 
  
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Company. 
  
 Section 11.05. Deposit of
Redemption Price. On or before any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent in immediately available funds an amount of money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency
or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and (except if the
Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall, as promptly as practicable, but in any
event no later than the Business Day following such Redemption Date, return to the Company amounts on deposit all funds so deposited by the Company that are not required to be paid to Holders as the Redemption Price. 
  
 If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Trustee or
with any Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust. 
  
 Section 11.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been
given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which
the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Company
shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void and shall cease to be
entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities (or portion thereof) except the right to receive the Redemption Price thereof. Upon surrender of any such Security
for redemption in accordance with said notice, appertaining thereto maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Trustee from funds on deposit in the Securities Payment Account on behalf of the Company at the Redemption
Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that, except as otherwise provided with respect to Securities convertible into Common Stock or Preferred Stock, installments of interest on Securities whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 3.07. 
  

 46 

 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and
premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security. 
  
 Section 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article XI or of Article XII) 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 or her 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 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. If a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver to the depositary, without service charge, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered. 
  
 ARTICLE XII 
  
 SINKING FUNDS 
  
 Section 12.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article XII shall be
applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of such series. 
  
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a
“mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of such Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the
terms of any Securities of any series, the cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02. 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 12.02.
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of a series, (a) deliver Outstanding Securities of such series (other
than any previously called for redemption) and (b) apply as a credit Securities of such 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, as provided for by the terms of such Securities, or which have otherwise been acquired by the Company; provided, however, that such Securities so delivered or applied as a credit have
not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the applicable Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of
such mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
  
 Section
12.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for Securities of any series, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next
ensuing mandatory 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 in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities
of that series pursuant to Section 12.02, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered and credited. If such
Officers’ Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified to the Securities Payment Account to be
paid to the Holders by the Trustee. Not 

  

 47 

 
less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in
the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such
Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07. 
  
 ARTICLE XIII 
  
 REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS 
  
 Section 13.01.
Applicability of Article. Repayment of Securities of any series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders thereof shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities, if any, and (except as otherwise specified by the terms
of such series established pursuant to Section 3.01) in accordance with this Article XIII. 
  
 Section 13.02. Repayment of Securities. Securities of any series subject to repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless otherwise provided in the terms of such Securities, be
repaid at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with interest, if any, thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant to the terms of such Securities. The Company covenants that on or prior to the Repayment Date it
will deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent an amount of money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified
pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so provided by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the principal) of, and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid on such date. 
  
 Section 13.03. Exercise of Option. Securities of any series subject to repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an “Option to Elect
Repayment” form on the reverse of such Securities. In order for any Security to be repaid at the option of the Holder, the Trustee must receive at the Place of Payment therefor specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place or
places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of such Securities) not earlier than 60 days nor later than 30 days prior to the Repayment Date (a) the Security so providing for such repayment together with the “Option to
Elect Repayment” form on the reverse thereof duly completed by the Holder (or by the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing) or (b) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange,
or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the Holder of the Security, the principal amount of the Security, the principal amount of the Security to
be repaid, the CUSIP number, if any, or a description of the tenor and terms of the Security, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee that the Security to be repaid, together with the duly completed
form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” on the reverse of the Security, will be received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter; provided, however,
that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if such Security and form duly completed are received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be
repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of such Security to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for Securities of such series, and the denomination or denominations of the Security or Securities to
be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof may not be
repaid in part if, following such repayment, the unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such Security to be repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be
provided by the terms of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise or the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the Company. 
  

 48 

 Section 13.04. When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and Payable . If Securities of any series
providing for repayment at the option of the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this Article XIII and as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or the portions thereof, as the case may be, to
be repaid shall become due and payable and shall be paid on behalf of the Company by the Trustee from amounts on deposit on the Repayment Date therein specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall default in the payment
of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest so to be repaid, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Security for repayment in
accordance with such provisions, maturing after the Repayment Date, the principal amount of such Security so to be repaid shall be paid by the Trustee on behalf of the Company from amounts on deposit in the Securities Payment Account, together with
accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment Date; provided that, in the case of Securities, installments of interest, if any, whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable (but without interest thereon, unless the
Company shall default in the payment thereof) to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section
3.07. 
  
 If the principal amount of any Security surrendered for repayment shall
not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, such principal amount (together with interest, if any, thereon accrued to such Repayment Date) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the
case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such Security. 
  
 Section 13.05. Securities Repaid in Part. Upon surrender of any Registered Security which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without
service charge and at the expense of the Company, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the
principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid. 
  
 ARTICLE XIV 
  
 DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT
DEFEASANCE 
  
 Section 14.01. Applicability of Article; Company’s
Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. If, pursuant to Section 3.01, provision is made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 14.02 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of
or within a series under Section 14.03, then the provisions of such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of this Article XIV (with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.01 with
respect to any Securities), shall be applicable to such Securities, and the Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such Securities, elect to have Section 14.02 (if applicable) or Section 14.03 (if applicable) be
applied to such Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article XIV. 
  
 Section 14.02. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 14.02 with respect to any Securities of or
within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 14.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this
purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of
Section 14.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee,
at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities to
receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 14.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due, (b) the
Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.05, 3.06, 

  

 49 

 
10.02 and 10.03 and with respect to the payment of Additional Amounts, if any, on such Securities as contemplated by Section 10.10, (c) the rights, powers,
trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (d) this Article XIV. Subject to compliance with this Article XIV the Company may exercise its option under this Section 14.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section
14.03 with respect to such Securities. 
  
 Section 14.03. Covenant
Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from its obligations under Sections 10.04 to 10.08, inclusive, and,
if specified pursuant to Section 3.01, its obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Outstanding Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 14.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant
defeasance”), and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with Sections
10.04 to 10.08, inclusive, or such other covenant, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities, the
Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under
Section 5.01(d) or 5.01(h) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
  
 Section 14.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 14.02
or Section 14.03 to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series: 
  
 (a) The
Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another Trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.07 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article XIV 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 such Securities, (i) an amount in such currency, currencies or currency unit in which such
Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity, or (ii) Government Obligations applicable to such Securities (determined on the basis of the currency, currencies or currency unit in which such Securities are then specified as payable at
Stated Maturity) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, if any, on such Securities or (iii) a combination thereof, in any case, in an amount sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal and interest, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying Trustee) to pay and discharge, (A) the principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, if any, on such Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and (B) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such Outstanding Securities on the day
on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities. 
  
 (b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 
  
 (c) No
Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.01(f) and 5.01(g) are
concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 
  
 (d) In the case of an election under Section 14.02, the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee an 

  

 50 

 
Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the
date of execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not
recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had
not occurred. 
  
 (e) In the case of an election under Section 14.03, the Company
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred. 
  
 (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent to the defeasance under Section 14.02 or the covenant defeasance under Section 14.03 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit pursuant to
clause (a) above and the related exercise of the Company’s option under Section 14.02 or 14.03 (as the case may be), registration is not required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Company, with respect to the trust
funds representing such deposit or by the Trustee for such trust funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under said act have been effected. 
  
 (g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 14.04, such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute
terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.01. 
  
 Section 14.05. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
Section 10.03, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.01) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying Trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section
14.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of any Outstanding Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, if any,
but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to Section 3.01, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 14.04(a) has been made, (a) the Holder of a Security in respect of which such deposit was
made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 3.01 or the terms of such Security to receive payment in a currency or currency unit other than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 14.04(a) has been made in respect of such Security
or (b) a Conversion Event occurs in respect of the currency or currency unit in which the deposit pursuant to Section 14.04(a) has been made, the indebtedness represented by such Security shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged
and satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), and interest, if any, on such Security as the same becomes due out of the proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the case of any such
election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such Security into the currency or currency unit in which such Security becomes payable as a result of such election or Conversion Event based on the applicable market exchange rate for
such currency or currency unit in effect on the second Business Day prior to each payment date, except, with respect to a Conversion Event, for such currency or currency unit in effect (as nearly as feasible) at the time of the Conversion Event.

  
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other
charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 14.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the
Holders of such Outstanding Securities. 
  

 51 

 Anything in this Article XIV to the contrary notwithstanding, subject to Section 6.06, the Trustee shall deliver or pay
to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 14.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect a defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance
with this Article XIV.

 (b) The Trustee shall, by
an instrument in writing appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 15.02(b), in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the
series calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting. 
  

 53 

 (c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of
the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security of such series or proxy. 
  
 (d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called pursuant to Section 15.02 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time by Persons
entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice. 
  
 Section 15.06. Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings. The vote upon any
resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of their representatives by proxy and the principal
amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any
resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in duplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of
any series shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the
fact, setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 15.02 and, if applicable, Section 15.04. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and
secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to the Company and another to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be
conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to                      or registered assigns the
principal sum of                      Dollars on

Date)” and, together with the Stated Maturity Date with respect to principal repayable on such date, the “Maturity Date”)]. 
  
 [IF THE SECURITY IS TO BEAR INTEREST PRIOR TO MATURITY, INSERT—and to pay interest thereon from
                     or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in
arrears on                     ,

amount hereof is paid or duly provided for [[if applicable] and with a final interest payment of     % per annum, in arrears, at the Stated Maturity Date.] The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for,
on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Holder in whose name this Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which
shall be the                      or
                     (whether or not a Business Day, as defined below), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date
[at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose; provided, however, that such interest may be paid, at the Company’s option, by mailing a check to such Holder at his 

  

 57 

 
registered address or by transfer of funds to an account maintained by such Holder within the United States]. Any such interest not so punctually paid or
duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Holder in whose name this Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be
paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided
in the Indenture. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.]

or at the [Stated] Maturity Date and in such case the overdue principal of this Security shall bear interest at the rate of     % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for. Interest on any overdue principal shall be payable on demand. Any such interest on any overdue
principal that is not so paid on demand shall bear interest at the rate of     % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such

and private debts. 
  
 Interest payable on this Security on any Interest Payment
Date and on the [Stated] Maturity Date [or Redemption Date, as the case may be,] will include interest accrued from and including the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and
including                     , if no interest has been paid on this Security) to but excluding such Interest Payment Date or the
[Stated] Maturity Date [or Redemption Date, as the case may be]. If any Interest Payment Date or the [Stated] Maturity Date [or Redemption Date] falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal, premium, if any, and/or interest payable with
respect to such Interest Payment Date or [Stated] Maturity Date [or Redemption Date, as the case may be,] will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no
interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or [Stated] Maturity Date [or Redemption Date, as the case may be]. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on
which banks in New York are not required or authorized by law or executive order to close.

hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
  
 Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, all as provided in the Indenture. 
  
 In the event of redemption of the Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
  
 [IF APPLICABLE, INSERT CONVERSION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN ANY BOARD RESOLUTION OR INDENTURE
SUPPLEMENTAL TO THE INDENTURE.] 
  
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions
as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a
majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit
the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount, in certain instances, of the Outstanding Securities of any series to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and other Securities issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
  
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, places and rates, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
  
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein [and herein] set forth, the transfer of 

  

 60 

 
this Security is registrable in the Security Register of the Company upon surrender of this security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of

executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees. 
  
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein [and herein] set forth, this Security is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the same terms and conditions, as requested by the Holder hereof
surrendering the same. 
  
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in
registered form in denominations of $                     and any integral multiple thereof. A minimal service charge shall be made for
any such registration of transfer or exchange, and the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

  
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if
any, or the interest on this Security, or for any claim based thereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any past, present or future stockholder, employee,
officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or through the Company or any successor, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise,
all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released. 
  
 The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada applicable to agreements made and to be performed
entirely in such State.
