Section 2.03(a). If a Company Order pursuant to Section 2.04 or 2.11 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or other notation on the books and records of the Registrar or
delivery or redelivery of a Security of such series in global form shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 12.04 or 12.06 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (except as required by Section 2.04). 

The provisions of the last sentence of Section 2.04 shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never issued
and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not comply with Section 12.04 or 12.06 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) with regard
to the reduction in the Principal Amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 2.04. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.01 and 2.13, payment of Principal of and any interest on any Security in global form shall be made to the person or persons specified therein or shall be made as specified as
contemplated by Section 2.03(a). 
 Any series of Bearer Securities shall be issued initially in the form of one temporary global Bearer Security
(the “Temporary Global Bearer Security”), which Temporary Global Bearer Security shall be deposited on behalf of the beneficial owners of the Bearer Securities represented thereby with a depositary designated by the Company, as
common depositary (the “Common Depositary”), for credit to their respective accounts (or to such other accounts as they may direct) at Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., Brussels office, as operator of Euroclear or Clearstream. 

On or before the date 40 days after the later of the announcement of the offering of Bearer Securities and the date of settlement thereof (the “Exchange
Date”), the Company shall deliver to a Paying Agent located outside the United States, or its designated agent, a Temporary Bearer Security representing such Bearer Securities and executed by the Company. On or after the Exchange Dates,
such Temporary Global Bearer Security shall be surrendered by the Common Depositary thereof to the Trustee or its agent, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, at the sole discretion of
the Company for (i) Bearer Securities or (ii) a permanent global Bearer Security (the “Permanent Global Bearer Security”) without charge to Holders, and the principal Paying Agent or other Paying Agent outside the United
States shall authenticate and deliver (at an office or agency outside the United States), in exchange for the Temporary Global Bearer Security or the portions thereof to be exchanged, an equal aggregate principal amount of Bearer Securities or the
Permanent Global Bearer Security, as shall be specified by the beneficial owners thereof; provided, however, that upon such surrender by the Common Depositary, the Temporary Global Bearer Security shall be accompanied by a certificate dated
the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by Euroclear as to the portion of the Temporary Global Bearer Security held for its account then to be exchanged and a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by
Clearstream as to the portion of the Temporary Global Bearer Security held for its account then to be exchanged, each to the effect hereinafter provided. The Company and the 

  

 8 

 
Trustee agree that they will cooperate in causing the paying agent located outside the United States to retain each certificate provided by Euroclear or Clearstream
for a period of four calendar years following the year in which the certificate is received and not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any such certificate without first offering to deliver it to the Company. 
 Each certificate to be provided by Euroclear and Clearstream shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A or with such changes therein as shall
be approved by the Company and be satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 Each certificate received by Euroclear and Clearstream from persons appearing in
their records as persons entitled to a portion of the Temporary Global Bearer Security shall be substantially to the effect set forth in this Indenture or as otherwise acceptable to the Company. 
 Upon any such exchange of a portion of the Temporary Global Bearer Security for Bearer Securities or the Permanent Global Bearer Security, the Temporary Global
Bearer Security shall be endorsed to reflect the reduction of the principal amount evidenced thereby. Until so exchanged in full, the Temporary Global Bearer Security shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under, and subject to the
same terms and conditions of, this Indenture as Bearer Securities authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that none of Euroclear, Clearstream or the beneficial owners of the Temporary Global Bearer Security shall be entitled to receive payment
of interest or other payments thereon or to convert the Temporary Global Bearer Security, or any portion thereof, into Common Stock of the Company or any other security (including a Registered Security or a Bearer Security, except as provided in the
fifth paragraph of this section Section 2.02), cash or other property.

 (25)    any addition to or change in the covenants set forth in ARTICLE IV which apply to Securities of the series; and

 (26)    any other terms of the series. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, in the event of any conflict or discrepancy between the terms of a series of Securities as established
pursuant to the Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture contemplated by this Section 2.03(a) and the terms of this Indenture, the terms of such series as established pursuant to such Officers’ Certificate or supplemental
indenture shall, for purposes of such series, apply to the extent of such conflict or discrepancy. 
 All Securities of any one series and the Coupons
appertaining to any Bearer Securities of such series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and the rate or rates of interest, if any, and Stated Maturity, the date from which interest, if any, shall accrue and except as may
otherwise be provided in or pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) or in any indenture supplemental hereto. 
 All Securities of any one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series or for the establishment of additional terms with respect to
the Securities of such series. 
 If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of any
appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the series. With
respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, such Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate may provide general terms for Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of particular Securities of such
series shall be specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company, or one or more of the Company’s agents designated in an Officers’ Certificate, in accordance with the Company Order as contemplated by the
first proviso of the third paragraph of Section 2.04. 
 (b)    Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of Securities, any Registered Securities of a series shall be issuable in denominations of 

  

 12 

 
$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof and any Bearer Securities of a series shall be issuable in denominations of $5,000 and $100,000. 
 Section 2.04    Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of
the Board, one of its Vice Chairmen, its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, or the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer, 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. Coupons shall bear the facsimile signature of any of the foregoing persons. 
 Securities and Coupons bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time such signatures were imprinted on such Securities, the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to, at or after 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 (and subject to delivery of the Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate
or supplemental indenture as set forth in Section 2.03 with respect to the initial issuance of Securities of any series), the Company may deliver Securities of any series together with any Coupons appertaining thereto, executed by the Company
to the Trustee or its authenticating agent for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee or its authenticating agent in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate
and deliver such Securities; provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, (a) such Company Order may be delivered by the Company to the Trustee or its authenticating agent prior to the
delivery to the Trustee of such Securities for authentication and delivery, (b) the Trustee or the authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver Securities of such series for original issue from time to time, in an aggregate Principal
Amount not exceeding the aggregate Principal Amount established for such series, pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order, (c) the rate or
rates of interest, if any, the Stated Maturity or Maturities, the original issue date or dates, the redemption provisions, if any, and any other terms of Securities of such series shall be determined by a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures
and (d) if provided for in such procedures, such Company Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company, or the Company’s duly authorized agent or agents designated in an
Officers’ Certificate, which instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing; and provided, further, that, no Bearer Security or Coupon shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any person who is not a United States Alien or to any
location in the United States. Except as permitted by Section 2.09, the Trustee’s authenticating agent shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant Coupons for interest then matured have been detached and
cancelled. 
 If the forms or terms of the Securities of the series and any related Coupons have been established in or pursuant to one or more
Officers’ Certificates as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 2.03(a), 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 shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating: 
  

 13 

 (a)    that the form and terms of such Securities and any Coupons have been duly authorized by
the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (b)    that such Securities, together with
any Coupons appertaining thereto, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or its authenticating agent and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and
legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions; provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive such Opinion of Counsel only once at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series (provided, that such Opinion of Counsel covers all Securities of such series) and that the Opinion of
Counsel above may state: 
 (x)    that the forms of such Securities have been, and the terms of such Securities (when established
in accordance with such procedures as may be specified from time to time in a Company Order, all as contemplated by and in accordance with a Board Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture pursuant to
Section 2.03(a), as the case may be) will have been, duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (y)    that such Securities, together with the Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto, when (1) executed by the Company, (2) completed, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or in the case of
Bearer Securities and Coupons, an authenticating agent located outside the United States, in accordance with this Indenture, and (3) issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will
constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions. 
 With
respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and
enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.03(a) and this Section, as applicable, at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series unless and
until it has received written notification that such opinion or other documents have been superseded or revoked. In connection with the authentication and delivery of Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be
entitled to assume, unless it has received written notice to the contrary or any of its Trust Officers has actual knowledge to the contrary, that the Company’s instructions to authenticate and deliver such Securities do not violate any rules,
regulations or orders of any governmental agency or commission having jurisdiction over the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 2.03(a) and of the preceding three paragraphs, if all Securities of a series are subject to a Periodic Offering, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.03(a) at
or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such Officers’ Certificate is delivered 

  

 14 

 
at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
 Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication; and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), each Bearer
Security (including a Bearer Security represented by a temporary global Security) shall be dated as of the date of original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
 The Trustee (at the expense of the Company) may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless otherwise provided in
the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. 
 No Security or Coupon 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. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form: 
 This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. 
 The Bank of New York, 
 as Trustee 
  
 By:                                      
                                        
                   
 Authorized Officer

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly 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 2.12 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 12.04 or 12.06 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 2.05 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain, with respect to each series of Securities, an office or
agency where such Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where such Securities may be presented for purchase or payment (“Paying Agent”). The
Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one 
  

 15 

 
or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agent. 
 The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with respect to each series of Securities with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar (if not the
Trustee). The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent for a
particular series of Securities, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them may act as Paying Agent,
Registrar or co-registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as the Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with each series of
Securities. 
 Section 2.06    Paying Agent to Hold Money and Securities in Trust. Not later than 10:00 am (London, England time)
on each due date of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due
on the due date for payment under the Securities. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such
Paying Agent for the making of payments in respect of the Securities of such series and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. At any time during the continuance of any such default, a Paying
Agent shall, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all money so held in trust with respect to such Securities. If the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them acts as Paying Agent for a series of
Securities, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent with respect to such Securities and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent for a series of Securities to pay all money held by it with
respect to such Securities to the Trustee and to account for any money disbursed by it. Upon doing so, such Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. 
 Section 2.07    Securityholder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each series of
Securities. If the Trustee is not the Registrar for any series of Securities, the Company shall, upon the written request of the Trustee, cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year a
listing of Holders of such series of Securities dated within 15 days of the date on which the list is furnished. In addition, If the Trustee is not the Registrar for any series of Securities, the Company shall provide the Trustee, at such other
times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Securityholders of such series of Securities. 
 Section 2.08    Transfer and Exchange. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company
designated pursuant to Section 4.05 for such purpose in a Place of Payment, 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

  

 16 

 
of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate Principal Amount and tenor. The Company shall not charge a service charge for any registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the transfer or exchange of the Securities from the Securityholder
requesting such transfer or exchange (other than any exchange of a temporary Security for a definitive Security not involving any change in ownership or any exchange pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.06, 9.05 or 10.03, not involving any transfer).

 Notwithstanding any other provisions (other than the provisions set forth in the sixth and seventh paragraphs) of this Section, a Security in global
form representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of
such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
 At
the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate Principal Amount and tenor, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled
to receive. Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities. 
 At the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of any series
may be exchanged for Registered Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination or denominations and of a like aggregate Principal Amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any office or agency of the
Company located outside the United States, with all unmatured Coupons and all matured Coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons
in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee or Paying Agent in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing Coupon or Coupons, or the
surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company, the Paying Agent and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter
the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing Coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment when the same becomes due;
provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.05, interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency located outside the United States.
Notwithstanding the foregoing in this paragraph, in case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of the same series and like tenor after the close of business at such office
or agency 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 before the opening of business at such office or agency on the
related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to 

  

 17 

 
such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, and 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 the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture. 
 Whenever any Securities are surrendered for exchange in accordance herewith and subject to the provisions hereof, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee or a duly appointed authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of
such series, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such
notice, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form in an
aggregate Principal Amount equal to the Principal Amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or Securities in global form in accordance with the instructions, if any, of the Depositary.

 The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more global
Securities shall no longer be represented by such global Security or Securities. In such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series,
will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form and in an aggregate Principal Amount equal to the Principal Amount of the Security or Securities in global form representing such series in exchange for such Security or
Securities in global form in accordance with the instructions, if any, of the Depositary. 
 A series of Permanent Global Bearer Securities will be
exchanged by the Company in whole but not only in part at the option of the holders for definitive Bearer Securities of such series in an aggregate Principal Amount equal to the Principal Amount of the corresponding Permanent Global Bearer
Securities, in all cases at the cost and expense of the Company. If the Company is notified of such a request, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Bearer
Securities of such series in such aggregate Principal Amount, will authenticate and deliver definitive Bearer Securities of such series in such aggregate Principal Amount outside the United States in accordance with the instructions, if any, of the
Depositary, provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security or coupon delivered in exchange for a portion of a series of Permanent Global Bearer Securities shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any person that is not a United States
Alien, or to any location in the United States. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section, except as otherwise specified in the preceding two
paragraphs or as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), any global Security shall be exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interests in a global 

  

 18 

 
Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Securities of such series and of like Principal Amount and tenor but of another authorized form and
denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee definitive
Securities in aggregate Principal Amount equal to the Principal Amount of such global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be surrendered by the
Depositary with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge and the Trustee or, in the case of Bearer Securities, an
authenticating agent outside the United States shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such global Security, an equal aggregate Principal Amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of
like tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged which, unless the Securities of the series are not issuable both as Bearer Securities and as Registered Securities, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), shall be in
the form of Bearer Securities or Registered Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the last paragraph of this Section 2.08, no such exchanges
may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date; and provided, further, that no Bearer Security or Coupon
delivered in exchange for a portion of a global Security shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any person that is not a United States Alien or to any location in the United States. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion
of a 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 before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, then 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 global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Upon the exchange of a Security
in global form for Securities in definitive form, such Security in global form shall be cancelled by the Trustee. All cancelled Securities and Coupons held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee and a certificate of their disposal
delivered to the Company upon its request therefor, unless the Company directs, by Company Order, that the Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Company. Registered Securities issued in exchange for a Security in global form pursuant to this
Section 2.08 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Security in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee
in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Registered Securities as instructed in writing by the Depositary. 
 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. 
  

 19 

 Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending (except as otherwise provided in the first proviso in the eighth paragraph of this Section 2.08) at the close of business on (A) if Securities of
the Series are issuable only as Registered Securities, the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption and (B) if Securities of the series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the day of the first publication of the relevant notice of
redemption or, if Securities of the series are also issuable as Registered Securities and there is no publication, the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so
selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except that such a Bearer Security may be exchanged for a
Registered Security of that series and like tenor, provided, that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously surrendered for redemption. 
 Section 2.09    Replacement Securities and Coupons. If (a) any mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated Coupon appertaining thereto is surrendered to the Trustee or paying agent outside the United States,
or (b) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or Coupon, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them
to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of written notice to the Company, any such paying agent or the Trustee that such Security or Coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written
request the Trustee or paying agent outside the United States shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or Coupon or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or Coupon, or in exchange for the Security
to which a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains (with all appurtenant Coupons not mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen), a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and Principal Amount, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or Coupon, or to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or Coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security or Coupon; provided, however, that the Principal of and any interest on Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.05, be payable only at an office or agency
located outside the United States and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), any interest on Bearer Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the Coupons appertaining thereto. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Securities under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
that may 

  

 20 

 
be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or Paying Agent) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, or in exchange for a Security to
which a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its Coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost or
stolen Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and any such new Security and Coupons, if any, shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that issue and their
Coupons, if any, duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and
remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons. 
 Section
2.10    Outstanding Securities; Determinations of Holders’ Action. Securities of any series “Outstanding” at any time are, as of the date of determination, all the Securities of such series theretofore
authenticated by the Trustee for such series except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be “Outstanding”
because the Company or an Affiliate thereof holds the Security; provided, however, that solely for purposes of determining whether the Holders of the requisite Principal Amount of Outstanding Securities have given or concurred in any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Securities owned by the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be
outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities which the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so
disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the
pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. Subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such
determination (including, without limitation, determinations pursuant to ARTICLE VI or ARTICLE IX). In addition, in determining whether the Holders of the requisite Principal Amount of Outstanding Securities have given or concurred in any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, (i) the Principal Amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be Outstanding shall be the amount of the Principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the
date of such determination upon acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02, (ii) the Principal Amount of a Security denominated in a foreign currency or currencies shall be the Dollar equivalent, as determined on the
date of original issuance of such Security, of the Principal Amount (or, in the case of a Discount Security, the Dollar equivalent on the date of original issuance of such Security of the amount determined as provided in (i) above) of such
Security. 
  

 21 

 If a Security has been paid pursuant to Section 2.09 or in exchange for or in lieu of which another Security
has been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture, it ceases to be Outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the Trustee (other than the Company) holds, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or on Stated Maturity, money sufficient to pay Securities
and any Coupons thereto appertaining payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities shall cease to be Outstanding and interest, if any, on such Securities shall cease to accrue; provided, that if such Securities are to be
redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee has been made. 
 Section 2.11 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 or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or
more Coupons or without Coupons, 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. Such
temporary Securities may be in global form. 
 Except in the case of Securities represented by a temporary global Security, if temporary Securities for
some or all of the Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities representing such Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. Subject to Section 2.02, after the preparation of such definitive
Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such definitive Securities of like tenor upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.05 in a
Place of Payment for such series for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of such series, without charge to the Holder, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be
imposed in connection with a transfer or exchange of the Securities from the Securityholder requesting such transfer or exchange. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured
Coupons and all matured Coupons in default appertaining thereto), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like Principal Amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of
authorized denominations; provided, however, that no definitive Bearer Security or Permanent Global Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities. 
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a), if Bearer Securities of any series are represented by a Security in temporary global form, any such temporary global Security shall be delivered to the Depositary for the benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream, for credit to the
respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Securities (or to such other accounts as they may direct). 
  

 22 

 Without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the Exchange Date, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee or paying agent outside the United States permanent Securities of the same series which may be in definitive or global form at the sole discretion of the Company, in aggregate Principal Amount equal to the Principal Amount of such temporary
global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee or paying agent outside the United States, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to
be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for permanent Securities of the same series which may be in definitive or global form at the sole discretion of the Company and of like tenor without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for each portion of such temporary global Security, an equal aggregate Principal Amount of definitive Securities or interests in the Permanent Global Bearer Security of the same series of authorized denominations and of like
tenor as the portion of such temporary global Security to be exchanged. The permanent Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global Security shall be in definitive bearer form or registered form, or shall be represented by a
Permanent Global Bearer Security, or any combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof provided, that no beneficial
owner of a registered Temporary Global Bearer Security who is not a United States Alien or who is located in the United States shall be entitled to receive Bearer Securities. 
 Unless otherwise specified in any such Temporary Global Bearer Security, the interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series represented by a Temporary
Global Bearer Security shall be exchanged for permanent Securities of the same series, which may be in definitive or global form at the sole discretion of the Company and of like tenor following the Exchange Date when the account holder instructs
Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to request such exchange on his behalf and delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, any certificate specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a). Unless otherwise specified in such
Temporary Global Bearer Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such Temporary Global Bearer Security, except that a person receiving permanent Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage,
transportation and the like in the event that such person does not take delivery of such permanent Securities in person at the offices of Euroclear or Clearstream. 
 Until exchanged in full as here-in-above provided, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as permanent Securities of the same series and of like tenor
authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), interest payable on a temporary global Security representing a series of Bearer Securities on an Interest Payment Date for
Securities of such series occurring prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable to Euroclear and Clearstream on such Interest Payment Date, upon delivery by Euroclear and Clearstream to a paying agent outside the United States of any
certificate specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), for credit without further interest on or after such Interest Payment Date to the respective accounts of the persons who are the beneficial owners of such Temporary Global Bearer
Security on such Interest Payment Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, any certificate specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a). 
  

 23 

 Section 2.12    Cancellation. All Securities or Coupons surrendered for payment, redemption,
registration of transfer or exchange, or for credit against any sinking fund payment, shall, if surrendered to any person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and all Registered Securities and matured Coupons so delivered shall be
promptly cancelled by it. All Bearer Securities and unmatured Coupons so delivered shall be held by the Trustee and, upon instruction by a Company Order, shall be cancelled or held for reissuance. Bearer Securities and unmatured Coupons held for
reissuance may be reissued only in replacement of mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Bearer Securities of the same series and like tenor or the related Coupons pursuant to Section 2.09. All Bearer Securities and unmatured Coupons held by the
Trustee pending such cancellation or reissuance shall be deemed to be delivered for cancellation for all purposes of this Indenture and the Securities. 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 (including Securities received by the Company in exchange or as payment for other Securities of the Company) 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. The Company may not
reissue, or issue new Securities to replace, Securities it has paid or delivered 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, except as expressly permitted in the form of Securities for any particular series or as permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities and
Coupons held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures, and a certificate of their destruction shall be delivered to the Company unless the Company directs, by Company Order, that the Trustee
deliver such Securities to the Company. 
 Section 2.13    Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Unless otherwise
provided as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person in
whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered in exchange for a Registered
Security of such series after the close of business (at an office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series) on any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business (at such office or agency) on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date,
such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date and interest will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but
will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Any interest on any Registered
Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder at the close of business
on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below: 
  

 24 

 (1)    The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the
persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements reasonably 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 (1) 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
Registered Securities at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so
mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall not be payable pursuant to the
following clause (2). 
 (2)    The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Registered Securities
in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Registered Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the
Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the
foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 2.08, 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 accrued and unpaid interest, and
to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 2.14    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 Registered Security for the
purpose of receiving payment of Principal of and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) and subject to Section 2.08 and Section 2.13) 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. 
  

 25 

 Title to any Bearer Security and any Coupons appertaining thereto shall pass by delivery. The Company, the Trustee
and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any Coupon as the absolute owner of such Bearer Security or Coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for
all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Bearer Security or Coupon 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. 
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments
made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 Section 2.15    Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) for Securities of any series,
(i) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a fixed rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and (ii) interest on any Securities which bear interest at a variable rate shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period divided by 365 or 366 days, as applicable. 
 ARTICLE III

 REDEMPTION 
 Section
3.01    Right to Redeem; Notices to Trustee. 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 2.03(a) for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. In the case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, within the time period specified
below, notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date, the Principal Amount of and of any other information necessary to identify the Securities of such series to be redeemed and the Redemption Price. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) for Securities of any series, the Company shall give the notice to the Trustee provided for
in this Section 3.01 at least 60 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee). 
 Section 3.02    Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of Securities, if less than all the Securities of any series with the
same interest rate and Stated Maturity are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the particular Securities to be redeemed by such method as the Trustee considers fair and appropriate, which method 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 Registered Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination
for Securities of that series. The Trustee shall make the selection not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date from Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption. Provisions of this 

  

 26 

 
Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly in
writing of the Securities to be redeemed and, in the case of any portions of Securities to be redeemed, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 Section 3.03    Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of Securities, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the
Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), the notice shall identify the Securities (including
CUSIP/ISIN numbers) to be redeemed and shall state: 
 (1)    the Redemption Date; 
 (2)    the Redemption Price; 
 (3)    if fewer than all the Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the Principal Amounts) of the particular Securities to be
redeemed; 
 (4)    that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such
Security (or portion thereof) to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date; 
 (5)    the place or places where such Securities, together in the case of Bearer Securities with all Coupons appertaining thereto, if any, maturing on or after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of
the Redemption Price; and 
 (6)    that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. 
 A notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 12.02 need not identify particular Registered Securities to be redeemed. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided,
however, that, in all cases, the text of such Company notice shall be prepared by the Company and the Company shall give the Trustee at least five (5) days’ advance notice of such request. 
 Section 3.04    Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is given, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on
the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the notice, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the
Coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, together with all Coupons, if
any, appertaining thereto maturing on or after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided, however, that
installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose 

  

 27 

 
Stated Maturity is prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in
Section 4.05) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), only upon presentation and surrender of Coupons for such interest; and provided, further, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a), installments of interest on Registered 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 Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.13. 
 If any Bearer Security
surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant Coupons maturing on or after the Redemption Date, such Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing
Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company and a paying agent located outside the United States if there be furnished to the Company, the Trustee and such paying agent such security or indemnity as they
may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing Coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price,
such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in
Section 4.05) and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a), only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 3.05    Deposit of Redemption Price. By or before 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with
the Paying Agent (or if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all Securities to be redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption which prior thereto have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. If such money
is then held in trust and is not required for such purpose, it shall be discharged from such trust. 
 Section 3.06    Securities
Redeemed in Part. Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and upon such surrender, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such
Security a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, in an authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, equal in aggregate Principal Amount to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the Principal of
the Security surrendered. 
  

 28 

 ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS 
 Notwithstanding anything in this
ARTICLE IV to the contrary, this ARTICLE IV shall cease to apply at any time when no Securities are Outstanding. 
 Section
4.01    Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly make all payments in respect of each series of Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto and, to the extent
not otherwise so provided, pursuant to this Indenture. An installment of Principal of or interest on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or a Paying Agent holds (or, if the Company of an Affiliate o the
Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company of such Affiliate segregates and holds in trust) on that date funds (in the currency or currencies of payment with respect to such Securities) designated for and sufficient to pay such
installment. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of Securities, any interest due on Bearer Securities on or before Maturity shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the
several Coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature. At the Company’s option, payments of Principal or interest may be made by check or by transfer to an account maintained by the payee, subject, in
the case of Bearer Securities, to the provisions of Section 4.05. 
 Section 4.02    SEC Reports. The Company shall deliver to
the Trustee, within 15 days after it files the same with the SEC, copies of such reports, information and documents (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company is required
to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver to the Trustee any material for which the Company has sought and received confidential
treatment by the SEC and the Company shall not be required to deliver to the Trustee any letters delivered to the SEC in response to any comments the SEC may have on any such reports, information or documents; provided further, each such
report, information or document will be deemed to be so delivered to the Trustee if the Company files such report, information or document with the SEC through the SEC’s EDGAR database. The Company also shall comply with the other provisions of
TIA Section 314(a). 
 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the
Trustee’s receipt of the same 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 hereunder (as to
which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 Section 4.03    Compliance Certificate. The
Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2008) an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not the signers have actual knowledge of any
Default that occurred during such fiscal year. If they do, such Officers’ Certificate shall describe, to the signers’ actual knowledge, the Default and its status. 
  

 29 

 The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within five (5) days after the
Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or
default and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 Section 4.04    Further Instruments and Acts.
Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. 
 Section 4.05    Maintenance of Office or Agency. If Securities of a series are issuable only as Registered Securities, the Company will
maintain in each Place of Payment for such series an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the Company will maintain (A) in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, an office or agency where any Registered Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where any Registered Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer, where Securities of
that series may be surrendered for exchange, purchase or redemption and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served and where Bearer Securities of that series and
related Coupons may be presented or surrendered for payment in the circumstances described in the following paragraph, (B) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the
United States, an office or agency where Securities of that series and related Coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any additional amounts payable on Securities of that series pursuant to Section 4.06), and
(C) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series located outside the United States an office or agency where any Registered Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of
transfer, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for 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 office of the Trustee at One Canada
Square, London E14 5AL, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, shall be such office or agency for all of the aforesaid purposes unless the Company shall maintain some other office or agency for such purposes and shall give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such other office or agency. In the event that Registered Securities are issued or that the Depositary shall so require, the Company will appoint a Paying Agent and Registrar in The
City of New York. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency in respect of any series of Securities or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders of
Securities of that series may be made and notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 12.02, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related Coupons may be presented and surrendered
for payment (including payment of any additional amounts payable on Bearer Securities of that series pursuant to Section 4.06) at the place specified for that purpose as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) and the Company hereby appoints the
same as its agent to receive such respective presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
  

 30 

 No payment of Principal or interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in
the United States, by check mailed to any address in the United States, by transfer to an account located in the United States or upon presentation or surrender in the United States of a Bearer Security or Coupon for payment, even if the payment
would be credited to an account located outside the United States; provided, however, that, if the Securities of a series are denominated and payable in Dollars, payment of Principal of and any interest on any such Bearer Security (including
any additional amounts payable on Securities of such series pursuant to Section 4.06) shall be made at the office of the Company’s Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (but only if) payment in Dollars of the
full amount of such Principal, interest or additional amounts, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies outside the United States maintained for such purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded
by exchange controls or other similar restrictions. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the
Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the
Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in 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. 
 Section 4.06 Additional Amounts. If specified as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a), the Securities of a series may provide for the payment of additional amounts, and in such case, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of such series or any Coupon appertaining thereto additional amounts as provided
therein. Wherever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the Principal of or any interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or payment of any related Coupon, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of additional amounts provided for in this Section to the extent that, in such context, additional amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 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. 
 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 payment of Principal is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of Principal and any 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 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 interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series or any related Coupons who are United States
Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the

  

 31 

 
amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities or Coupons and the Company will pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the
additional amounts required by the Securities of such series and this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without
negligence or willful misconduct on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section. 
 ARTICLE V 
 SUCCESSOR
CORPORATION 
 Notwithstanding anything in this ARTICLE V to the contrary, this ARTICLE V shall cease to apply at any time when no Securities are
Outstanding. 
 Section 5.01    When Company May Merge or Transfer Assets. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or
into any other person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any person, unless: 
 (a)    either (1) the Company shall be the continuing corporation or person or (2) the person (if other than the Company) formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the person which
acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety (i) shall be a corporation, partnership or trust or limited liability company organized and validly existing under the laws of the
United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and (ii) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all of the obligations
of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture; 
 (b)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default
shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (c)    the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, comply with this Article and that
all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been satisfied. 
 The successor person formed by such consolidation or
into which the Company is merged or the successor person to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as
if such successor had been named as the Company herein; and thereafter, except in the case of a lease of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture,
the Securities and Coupons.

 ARTICLE VI 
 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section
6.01    Events of Default Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with respect to any series of securities, an “Event of Default” occurs, with respect to each series of the Securities
individually, if: 
 (1)    the Company fails to pay the principal of any Security of such series, when and as the
same shall become payable; 
 (2)    the Company fails to pay any installment of interest on any Security of such
series when the same becomes due and payable and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; 
 (3)    the
Company fails to comply with any of its agreements in the Securities or this Indenture (including any indenture supplemental hereto pursuant to which the Securities of such series were issued) (other than those referred to in clause (1) above
and other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of Securities other
than such series) and such failure continues for 60 days after receipt by the Company of a Notice of Default; 
 (4)    there shall have been the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of (a) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or
(b) a decree or order adjudging the Company bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the wind up or liquidation of its affairs, and any such decree or order for relief shall continue to be in
effect, or any such other decree or order shall be unstayed and in effect, for a period of 60 consecutive days; 
 (5)    (a) the Company commences a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, (b) the Company consents to the entry of a
decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, (c) the Company files a petition
or answer or consent seeking reorganization or substantially comparable relief under any applicable federal state law, (d) the Company (x) consents to the filing of such petition or the appointment of, or taking possession by, a custodian,
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, (y) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or (z) admits in writing its inability to pay its
debts generally as they become due or (e) the Company takes any corporate action primarily in furtherance of any such actions in this clause (5); or 
  

 33 

 (6)    any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that
series; 
 provided, however, that an Event of Default with respect to one series of Securities shall not, solely by
virtue thereof, be deemed to constitute an Event of Default with respect to any other series of Securities. 
 “Bankruptcy Law” means
Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 A Default under clause (3) above is not an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal
Amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series notify the Company and the Trustee, of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (3) above after receipt of such notice. Any such notice must
specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” 
 Section
6.02    Acceleration. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4) or (5)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by
notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the Principal Amount (or, if any of the Securities of that series
are Discount Securities, such portion of the Principal Amount of such Securities of that series as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all the Securities of that series to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such Principal
(or portion thereof) shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4) or (5) occurs and is continuing with respect to a series of Securities, the Principal (or portion thereof) of all the
Outstanding Securities of that series shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Securityholder) may rescind an acceleration with respect to that series and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and all
existing Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series have been cured or waived except nonpayment of the Principal (or portion thereof) of Securities of such series that has become due solely as a result of such acceleration and if
all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07 have been paid. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
 Section 6.03    Other Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to a series of Outstanding Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to (a) collect the payment
of the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for Principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue Principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest
from the date such interest was due, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, 

  

 34 

 
including amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 or (b) enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if the Trustee does not possess any of the Securities or Coupons or does not produce any of the Securities or Coupons in
the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of, or acquiescence in, the Event of Default. No
remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 
 Section 6.04    Waiver of Past Defaults. The
Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, by notice to the Trustee (and without notice to any other Securityholder), may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series and any
related Coupons waive an existing Default with respect to such series and its consequences except (1) an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(1) with respect to such series or (2) a Default in respect of a provision that under
Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair
any consequent right. 
 Section 6.05    Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such
series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Securityholders or would involve the Trustee in
personal liability. 
 Section 6.06    Limitation on Suits. A Holder of any Security of any series or any related Coupons may not
pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless: 
 (1)    the Holder gives to the Trustee
written notice stating that an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series is continuing; 
 (2)    the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3)    such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any
loss, liability or expense; 
 (4)    the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of
the notice, the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5)    the Holders of a majority in aggregate
Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request during such 60-day period. 
  

 35 

 A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Securityholder or to obtain a
preference or priority over any other Securityholder. 
 Section 6.07    Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Indenture, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of any Holder of any Security or Coupon to receive payment of the Principal of and (subject to Section 2.13) interest on such Security or payment of such Coupon
on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security or Coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities or any Redemption Date, or to
bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected adversely without the consent of each such Holder. 
 Section 6.08    Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(1) with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount owing with respect to such series of Securities and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.09    Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective
of whether the Principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue Principal or
interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (a)    to file and prove a claim for
the whole amount of Principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amount due the Trustee under Section 7.07) and of the Holders of Securities and Coupons allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(b)    to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any Custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities
and Coupons to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities and Coupons, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
 Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee or the holders of the Securities to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security or Coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition 

  

 36 

 
affecting the Securities or Coupons 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 or
Coupon in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.10    Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this ARTICLE VI, it
shall pay out the money in the following order and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of Principal or interest, upon presentation of the Securities or Coupons, or both, as the case may be, and the notation thereon of the payment
if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07; 
 SECOND: to Securityholders for amounts due and unpaid for the Principal and interest on the Securities and interest evidenced by Coupons in respect of which or for
the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities and Coupons for Principal and interest, respectively; and 
 THIRD: the balance, if any, to the Company. 
 The Trustee may
fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Securityholders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such record date, the Company shall mail to each Securityholder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date,
the payment date and amount to be paid. 
 Section 6.11    Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or
remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit of an undertaking to pay the
costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses
made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Security or Coupon for the enforcement of the payment of the
Principal of or interest on any Security or the payment of any Coupon on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security or Coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
 Section 6.12    Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at
any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury or other 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.

 TRUSTEE 
 Section
7.01    Duties of Trustee. 
 (a)    If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall

determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture but need not confirm or investigate the mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein. 
 (c)    The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

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 any such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the

 (l)    The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture. 
 (m)    The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent or custodian of, and other Person duly employed to act by, the Trustee hereunder.

complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

that the Company has performed in accordance with all of the provisions of this Indenture, unless notified in writing to the contrary. 
 Section
7.03    Individual Rights of Trustee, Etc. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities or Coupons and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same
rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar or any other agent of the Company may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
 Section 7.04    Trustee’s Disclaimer. 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 the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or
Coupons. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities and, shall not be responsible for any statement in the registration statement for the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or in this Indenture or the Securities or any Coupons (other than its certificate of authentication) or for the determination as to which beneficial owners are entitled to receive any notices hereunder. 
 Section 7.05    Notice of Defaults. If a Default with respect to the Securities of any series occurs and is continuing and if it is known to
the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to each Holder of Securities of such series notice of such Default in the manner set forth in TIA Section 315(b) within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default described in
Section 6.01(1) with respect to any Security of any series or a Default in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to any Security of such series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as 

  

 40 

 
a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of Securities of such series. 
 Section 7.06    Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this
Indenture, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of Securities a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b) and (c). 
 A copy of each such report at the time of its mailing to Holders of Securities shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Securities of the
relevant series may be listed. The Company agrees to notify the Trustee whenever the Securities of a particular series become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 
 Section 7.07    Compensation and Indemnity. The Company agrees: 
 (a)    to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder, including, but not limited to, additional compensation for all services rendered during and
after an Event of Default or for exceptional duties, and which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust; 
 (b)    to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses, advances and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been determined to have
been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct; and 
 (c)    to indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability
or reasonable expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it without willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance
of its duties hereunder (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim, whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other Person). The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company promptly of any claim for
which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Company is prejudiced by the failure to so notify the Company. Upon such
notification, the Company shall defend such claim, and the Trustee shall cooperate in such defense. The Trustee may employ separate counsel to defend any such claim, but the Trustee shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel, unless the
employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such claim or the Trustee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it which are different from,
additional to or in conflict with those available to the Company, in any of which events the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Company. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which
consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company shall not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities and any Coupons on
all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay the Principal of or interest, if any, on particular Securities or for the payment of particular Coupons. 
 The Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 7.07 shall survive the discharge or other termination of this Indenture or the resignation or removal
of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(4) or (5), the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 Section 7.08    Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company; provided, however, no such resignation shall
be effective until a successor Trustee has accepted its appointment pursuant to this Section 7.08. The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series at the time outstanding may remove 

  

 41 

 
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if:

 (1)    the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 
 (2)    the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 
 (3)    a receiver or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 
 (4)    the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 
 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the
Company shall promptly appoint, by resolution of its Board of Directors, a successor Trustee 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 series). 
 In the case
of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of Securities of the
particular series with respect to which such successor Trustee has been appointed. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

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

  

 42 

 
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, upon 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, subject, nevertheless, to its lien, if any, provided for in Section 7.07. 
 If a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any series does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities
of such series at the time outstanding may petition, at the Company’s expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder of a Security of such series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
such Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.09    Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee
consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor
Trustee. 
 Section 7.10    Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA
Section 310(a)(1) and 310(a)(5). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b),
including the optional provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9). In determining whether the Trustee has conflicting interests as defined in TIA Section 310(b)(1), the provisions contained in the proviso to TIA
Section 310(b)(1) shall be deemed incorporated herein. 
 Section 7.11    Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.
The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when: 
  

 43 

 (a)    either 
 (1)    all Outstanding Securities or all Outstanding Securities of such series, as the case may be, theretofore authenticated
and delivered and all Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto (other than (i) Coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities surrendered for exchange form Registered Securities and maturing after such exchange, whose surrender is not required or has

Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 8.02) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (2)    all such Securities and, in the case of (i) or (ii) below, any Coupons appertaining thereto not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, 
 (i)    have become due and payable, or 
 (ii)    will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 
 (iii)    are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of
notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and 
 the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or
(iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose, an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities and Coupons not theretofore delivered to the

 (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
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 The Trustee shall join in the
execution of a document prepared by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture on demand of the Company accompanied by such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company.

  

 44 

 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any series, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee with respect to the Securities of that series under Section 7.07, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04 and, if money shall
have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to clause (b) of this Section, Section 8.02 shall survive. The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the principal and
interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities. 
 Section 8.02    Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company on Company Request any money held by them for the payment of any amount with respect to the Securities that remains
unclaimed for two years; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such return, may at the expense and direction of the Company cause to be published once in an Authorized Newspaper in each
Place of Payment of or mail to each such Holder 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 or mailing, any unclaimed money then remaining
will be returned to the Company. After return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another person. 
 Section 8.03    Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) with
respect to Securities of a particular series, the Company, may at its option, by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to any series of Securities, elect to have either Section 8.04 or Section 8.05 be applied to all of the
outstanding Securities of any series (the “Defeased Securities”), upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this ARTICLE VIII. 
 Section 8.04    Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.03 of the option applicable to this Section 8.04, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to the Defeased Securities on the date the conditions set forth below 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 the Defeased Securities (which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.09, 2.11, 2.12, 4.01, 4.05, 6.06, 6.07, 7.07, 7.08
and 8.02 of this Indenture) and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such series of Securities and this Indenture insofar as such series of Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, and, upon written
request, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same). Subject to compliance with this ARTICLE VIII, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.04 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under
Section 8.05 with respect to a series of Securities. 
 Section 8.05    Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise
under Section 8.03 of the option applicable this Section 8.05, the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 4.02 and 4.03 and ARTICLE V and such other provisions as may be provided as contemplated by
Section 2.03(a) with respect to Securities of a particular series and with respect to the Defeased Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied 

  

 45 

 
(hereinafter “covenant defeasance”), and the Defeased 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 if any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this
purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Defeased 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 Sections or such Article,
whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or Article or by reason of any reference in any such Section or Article to any other provisions herein or in any other document, and such omission to
comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 
 Section 8.06    Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either
Section 8.04 or Section 8.05 to a series of outstanding Securities. 
 (a)    The Company shall have irrevocably
deposited with the Trustee, in trust, (i) sufficient funds in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such series are denominated to pay the Principal of and interest to Stated Maturity (or redemption) on, the Debt Securities
of such series, or (ii) such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the government which issued the currency in which the Securities of such series are denominated, and
which are not subject to prepayment, redemption or call, as will, together with the predetermined and certain income to accrue thereon without consideration of any reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay when due the Principal of, and interest to
Stated Maturity (or redemption) on, the Debt Securities of such series. 
 (b)    The Company shall (i) have delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that the Company has met all of the conditions precedent to such defeasance and that the Holders of the Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States Federal income tax purposes as
a result of such defeasance, and will be subject to United States Federal income tax in the same manner as if no defeasance and discharge or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, had occurred or (ii) in the case of an election under
Section 8.04, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date this
Indenture was first executed, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel in the United States shall confirm that, the holders of Outstanding
Securities of that particular series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
 Section 9.01    Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. Without the consent of any Holders of Securities or Coupons, the Company and the Trustee, at any time and from 

  

 46 

 
time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes: 
 (1)    to evidence the succession of another corporation to the Company and the assumption by any such successor of the
covenants of the Company herein and in the Securities; or 
 (2)    to add to the covenants, agreements and
obligations of the Company for the benefit of the Holders of all of the Securities or any series thereof, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or 
 (3)    to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture to provide that Bearer Securities may be registrable as to
Principal, to change or eliminate any restrictions (including restrictions relating to payment in the United States) on the payment of Principal of or any premium or interest on Bearer Securities, to permit Bearer Securities to be issued in exchange
for Registered Securities, to permit Bearer Securities to be issued in exchange for Bearer Securities of other authorized denominations or to permit the issuance of Securities in uncertificated form; or 
 (4)    to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series and any related Coupons as permitted by Sections 2.01 and
2.03(a), respectively; or 
 (5)    to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a
successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
Trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Section 7.08; or 
 (6)    to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency; or 
 (7)    to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture (which addition,
change or elimination may apply to one or more series of Securities), provided that any such addition, change or elimination shall neither (A) apply to any Security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental
indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (B) modify the rights of the Holder of any such Security with respect to such provision; or 
 (8)    to secure the Securities; or 
 (9)    to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder in any material respect.

 Section 9.02    Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority
in aggregate Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture, the Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture or the Securities of any series or may enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the 

  

 47 

 
rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series and any related Coupons under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such amendment or supplemental
indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby: 
 (1)    change
the Stated Maturity of the Principal of, or any installment of Principal or interest on, any such Security, or reduce the Principal Amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon redemption thereof or reduce the amount of
Principal of any such Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.02, or change the Place of Payment where, or change the coin or currency in which, any Principal
of, or any installment of interest on, any such Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date); 
 (2)    reduce the percentage in Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent
of whose Holders is required for any such amendment or supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with any provisions of this Indenture or any defaults hereunder and their consequences) with
respect to the Securities of such series provided for in this Indenture; or 
 (3)    modify any of the provisions
of this Section, Section 6.04 or 6.07, except to increase the percentage of Outstanding Securities of such series required for such actions 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. 
 A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other
provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
 After an amendment or supplemental indenture under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to each Holder of the particular Securities
affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment. 
 Section 9.03    Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every
supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall comply with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04    Revocation
and Effect of Consents, Waivers and Actions. Until an amendment or waiver with respect to a series of Securities becomes effective, a consent to it or any other action by a Holder of a Security of that series hereunder is a continuing consent by the
Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of that Security that evidences the same obligation as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent, waiver 

  

 48 

 
or action is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent, waiver or action as to such Holder’s Security or
portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the Company or an agent of the Company certifies to the Trustee that the consent of the requisite aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities of that series has been
obtained. After an amendment, waiver or action becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder of Securities of the relevant series. 
 The Company may,
but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment or waiver with respect to a series of Securities. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the first two
sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph, those persons who were Holders of Securities of that series at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to revoke any consent previously given,
whether or not such persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date. 
 Section 9.05    Notation On or Exchange of Securities. Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture with respect to such series pursuant to this
Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of such 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 that series. 

Section 9.06    Trustee to Sign Supplemental Indentures. The Trustee shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this
ARTICLE IX if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing such amendment, the Trustee shall be provided with, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
 Section 9.07    Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form
a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby, except to the extent otherwise set forth therein. 
 ARTICLE X 
 SINKING FUNDS

 Section 10.01    Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the
retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) for Securities of such series. 
  

 49 

 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein
referred to as a “Mandatory Sinking Fund Payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “Optional Sinking Fund Payment.”
If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 10.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any
series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series. 
 Section 10.02    Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments
with Securities. The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series with the same interest rate and Stated Maturity (other than any previously called for redemption), together, in the case of any Bearer Securities of such series,
with the same interest rate and Stated Maturity with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto, and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series with the same interest rate and Stated Maturity which have been redeemed either at the
election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory
sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series with the same interest rate and Stated Maturity; provided, that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such
purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund, and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
 Section 10.03    Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 60 days (or such shorter period as shall be reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the
terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 10.02 and will
also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in
Section 3.02 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 3.03. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be
made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 3.04 and 3.06.

request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have made the first publication of the notice of such meeting within 21 days after receipt of such request or shall not thereafter

 Section 11.03    Persons Entitled to Vote at Meeting. To be entitled
to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, a person shall be (1) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series, or (2) a person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of
one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such Holder or Holders. The only persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be the persons entitled to vote at such meeting
and their counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel. 
 Section
11.04    Quorum; Action. The persons entitled to vote a majority in Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series shall constitute a quorum for a meeting of Holders of Securities of such series. In the absence of a

chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the
adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in Section 11.02(a), except that such notice need be given only once not less than five days prior to the date on which the

 Except as limited by the proviso to Section 9.02, any resolution presented to a meeting or adjourned meeting
duly reconvened at which a quorum is present as aforesaid may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority in Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; provided, however, that, except as limited by the
proviso to Section 9.02, any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which this Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified
percentage, which is less than a majority, in Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid by the affirmative vote of the
Holders of such specified percentage in Principal Amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series. 
 Any resolution passed or decision taken at
any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly held in accordance with this Section shall be binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series and the related Coupons, whether or not present or represented at the meeting. 

Section 11.05    Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings. 
 (a)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for
any meeting of Holders of Securities of a series in regard to proof of the holding of Securities of such series and of the appointment of proxies and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of
proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities
shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 11.07 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 11.07 or by having the signature of the person executing the proxy witnessed or guaranteed by any
trust company, bank or banker authorized by Section 11.07 to certify to the holding of Bearer Securities. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without
the proof specified in Section 11.07 or other proof. 
 (b)    The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a
chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 11.02(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 chairman. 
 (c)    At any meeting, each Holder of a Security of a series or proxy shall be
entitled to vote with respect to 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 to 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 11.02 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to time by persons entitled to 

  

 52 

 
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 11.06    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 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 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 facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the
meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 11.02 and, if applicable, Section 11.04. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the 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.

 Section 11.07    Actions of Holders Generally. 
 (a)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of such series may, alternatively, be embodied in and evidenced by the record of Holders of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies
duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article, or a combination of such instruments and any such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any
meeting of Holders of Securities shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 11.06. 
 (b)    The fact and date of the
execution by any person of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the persons executing the same, may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (c)    The Principal Amount and serial numbers of Registered Securities held by the person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved
by the books of the Registrar. 
  

 53 

 (d)    The Principal Amount and serial numbers of Bearer Securities held by any person, and
the date of holding the same, may be proved by the production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed by any trust company, bank, banker or other depositary, wherever situated, as depositary, if such certificate shall be deemed by the
Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such person had on deposit with such depositary, or exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the
person holding such Bearer Securities, if such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Bearer Security continues until (1) another certificate or
affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, or (2) such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other person, or (3) such Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered
Security, or (4) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The Principal Amount and serial numbers of Bearer Securities held by any person, and the date of holding the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient. 
 (e)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act of the Holder of any
Security in accordance with this Section shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done,
omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 (f)    If the Company shall solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act in accordance with this Section, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to
an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or such other act, but the Company shall
have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other 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 percentage of Outstanding Securities or Outstanding Securities of a series, as the case may be, have authorized or agreed or consented
to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities or Outstanding Securities of the series, as the case may be, shall be computed as of such record date;
provided, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders as of the close of business on the record date shall be deemed effective unless such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act
shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of clause (a) of this Section 11.07 not later than six months after the record date.

 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. 
 Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Securityholder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders of Securities of the same series. If a

 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by
reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give notice to Holders of Registered Securities by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the acceptance of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder. 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 of a Registered Security shall affect the sufficiency
of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities or the sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided
above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither the failure to give notice by publication to
Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in any notice so published, shall affect the sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Registered Securities given as provided herein. 
 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.

Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not 

  

 56 

 
necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but
one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any Opinion of
Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company with respect to such factual matters, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 
 Section
12.06    Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel with respect to compliance with a covenant or condition provided for in this Indenture shall include:

 Section 12.07    Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section
12.08    Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar. With respect to the Securities of a particular series, the Trustee with respect to such series of Securities may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Holders
of such series of Securities. With respect to the Securities of a particular series, the Registrar and the Paying Agent with respect to such series of Securities may make reasonable rules for their functions. 
 Section 12.09    Legal Holidays. A “Legal Holiday” is any day other than a Business Day. If any specified date (including an
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or a date for giving notice) is a Legal Holiday at any Place of Payment or place for giving notice, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the
Securities 

  

 57 

 
or Coupons other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of
interest or Principal need not be made at such Place of Payment, or such other action need not be taken, on such date, but the action shall be taken on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday at such Place of Payment with the same force
and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity or such other date and to the extent applicable no Original Issue Discount or interest, if any, shall accrue for the intervening period.

Others. A director, officer, employee, stockholder or agent, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such
obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder of such Security shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

 EXHIBIT 10.5 
 ASSURANT 
 SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN 
 (As Amended and Restated Effective as of January 1, 2008) 
 ARTICLE ONE – INTRODUCTION 
 Effective January 1, 1990, the Board of Directors of Fortis,
Inc. (“Fortis”) established the Fortis, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as a nonqualified, unfunded supplemental retirement plan for certain executives of Fortis and its subsidiaries. The Plan has been amended from time to
time. The Plan was most recently amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2000 (the “Prior Plan”). Effective as of February 4, 2004, the Company was renamed Assurant, Inc. (“Assurant” or the “Company”)
and the Prior Plan was renamed as the Assurant Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. Effective as of January 1, 2008, the Prior Plan is amended and restated as set forth in this document to comply with Section 409A and for certain other
purposes. Amounts earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 under the Prior Plan shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Prior Plan. Amounts earned or vested under this Plan or the Prior Plan after December 31, 2004
shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 
 ARTICLE TWO – DEFINITIONS 
 Actuarial Equivalent. Except for determining the amount of benefits payable hereunder in a single lump sum, Actuarial Equivalent shall mean an actuarial
conversion using the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality table, and a seven percent (7%) interest per annum assumption. To determine the amount of benefits payable hereunder in a single lump sum on or after January 1, 2008, this Plan shall use
the mortality table prescribed under Code Section 417(e) as of the distribution date and the annual rate of interest prescribed under Code Section 417(e) for the September preceding the first day of the Plan Year in which such distribution
occurs. 
 Adverse Change of Circumstance. If a Change in Control occurs with respect to Assurant under subparagraphs (ii), (iii), or (iv) of
Section 9.01, then a Participant shall be deemed to have had an Adverse Change of Circumstance if (i) he was employed by Assurant or any Division immediately prior to a Change in Control; and (ii) after such Change in Control of
Assurant as described in Section 9.01, (x) the Participant’s employment with Assurant and all of its subsidiaries is terminated by Assurant without Cause; or (y) the Participant terminates employment voluntarily with Assurant and
all of its subsidiaries for Good Reason. 
 If a Division has a Change in Control as defined in subparagraph (i) of Section 9.01, then a
Participant employed by such Division immediately prior to the Change in Control has an Adverse Change in Circumstances if either (i) the Person who acquired the Division does not make an offer of employment to such Participant that includes a
position, 

 
compensation and employment location that are consistent with the requirements of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) set out at the beginning of
definition of Good Reason in this Plan; or (ii) such Participant is offered employment by such Person on terms described in clause (i) of this paragraph, but within two (2) years following such Change in Control (x) the
Participant's employment with such Person and all of its affiliates is terminated by such Person without Cause; or (y) the Participant terminates employment voluntarily with such Person and all of its affiliates for Good Reason. 
 Any termination for Cause, or by the Participant for Good Reason, must be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party, and must be given in accordance with
Section 10.09 of this Agreement. For purposes of this Plan, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice that: 
  

	 	(i)	indicates the specific termination provision in this Plan relied upon; and 

  

	 	(ii)	to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Participant's employment under the provision
so indicated; and 

  

	 	(iii)	if the date of termination is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than 30 days after the giving of such
notice). 

 If the Participant or the Company fails to set forth in a Notice of Termination any additional fact or circumstance that
contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause, but otherwise delivers a Notice of Termination in accordance with this Plan, such party will not be precluded from asserting the additional fact or circumstance in enforcing such party’s rights
hereunder. 
 Annual Target Earnings shall mean a Participant’s most recent base salary plus target short-term incentive bonus approved by the
Compensation Committee. 
 Assurant shall mean Assurant, Inc. and its corporate successors.

be amended from time to time, or its successor plan.

death of a Participant as designated by the Participant on his Beneficiary designation form on file with the Committee. The Committee may require certification in any form it deems appropriate of the Participant’s marital status prior to
accepting or honoring any Beneficiary designation. If a Participant fails to name a Beneficiary, or if all of the 

  

 - 2 - 

 
primary and alternate Beneficiaries named by the Participant predecease the Participant, then the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s Spouse, and if
the Participant does not have a Spouse, then the Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s estate. 
 Benefit Service shall have that meaning as set
forth in Section 4.02. 
 Board shall mean the Board of Directors of Assurant. 
 Business Combination means any reorganization, merger, share exchange or consolidation of a Person, or the sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the net assets of a Person.

 (i) the willful and continued failure of the Participant to perform substantially the Participant’s duties with the Employer (other than any such
failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), which failure continues for a period of at least thirty (30) days after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant by the Board or the Chief
Executive Officer of Assurant that specifically identifies the manner in which the Board or Chief Executive Officer believes that the Participant has not substantially performed the Participant's duties, or 
 (ii) the willful engaging by the Participant in illegal conduct or gross misconduct that is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Employer.

 For purposes of this definition of “Cause,” no act or failure to act on the part of the Participant shall be considered “willful”
unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Participant's action or omission was in the best interests of the Employer.

by the Company to make any payment of compensation to the Participant that does not occur in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after the Company receives notice thereof from the Participant, is excluded from the definition of
“Good Reason.” 

  

	 	(iii)	Employment Location. The Company’s requiring the Participant to be based at any location that is more than fifty (50) miles from the location at that the

Participant’s intent to terminate his or her employment if not remedied, and (2) the Company has not remedied such event within 30 days after receipt of such notice; provided, however, that if the specified event reasonably cannot be
remedied within such 30-day period, the Company commences reasonable steps within such 30-day period to remedy such event and diligently continues such steps thereafter until a remedy is effected, and the remedy is effected within 60 days after the
Company’s receipt of the Participant’s notice, then such event shall not constitute “Good Reason.” 
  

 - 4 - 

 Also notwithstanding the foregoing, “Good Reason” shall not exist if the Participant is offered employment with
the Company or an affiliate thereof in a position other than with the Division, or if the Participant is offered employment with the Person that acquires the Division or any of such Person’s affiliates, and in either case such offer of
employment includes a position, compensation and employment location that are consistent with the requirements of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) set out at the beginning of this definition of Good Reason.

 - 5 - 

 Vesting Service shall mean a Participant’s Benefit Service; provided, however, that in no event shall a
Participant be credited with Vesting Service for employment before he begins to participate in this Plan. 
 Defined terms in general. A defined term,
such as “Disability,” will normally govern the definitions of derivatives therefrom, such as “Disabled,” even though such derivatives are not specifically defined and even if they are or are not initially capitalized. The
masculine gender, where appearing in the Plan, shall be deemed to include the feminine gender, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary. Singular and plural nouns and pronouns shall be interchangeable as the factual context may allow or
require. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” shall mean and refer to the entire Plan and not to any particular provisions or Section. References to
“Participants,” “former Participants,” “Beneficiaries” and “Spouses” shall include also those who may make claims through or on behalf of such persons. 
 ARTICLE THREE – PARTICIPATION 
 To participate in this Plan, an Executive of Assurant or
any of its subsidiaries must be nominated for participation herein by the Executive Committee. However, at the next meeting of the Compensation Committee following the nomination of an Executive’s participation in this Plan, such nomination
shall be approved by the Compensation Committee before the date on which the Executive is eligible to begin participation in the Plan. 
 ARTICLE FOUR – COMPREHENSIVE BENEFIT 
 4.01 Comprehensive Benefit. Subject to the conditions stated in this Plan, when a
Participant terminates employment with Assurant and all of its subsidiaries other than for Cause, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a benefit, referred to as the “Comprehensive Benefit,” expressed as a single life annuity. The
Comprehensive Benefit shall be equal to (i) his Target Benefit minus the sum of; (ii) his Qualified Plan Benefit; (iii) his Nonqualified Plan Benefit; (iv) his Social Security Benefit; and (v) Other Benefit, if any,
where: 
 (i) Target Benefit is fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s Annual Target Earnings as of his Separation from
Service Date, multiplied by a fraction (not to exceed one), the numerator of which is the number of months of Benefit Service as of his Separation from Service Date, and the denominator of which is two hundred forty (240). In other words, after
twenty (20) years of Benefit Service, a Participant will earn a full fifty percent (50%) benefit under this Plan. If the Comprehensive Benefit is paid prior to age 60, then the Target Benefit will be reduced on an Actuarially Equivalent
basis to reflect early commencement from age 60 to the date the Comprehensive Benefit was paid; provided, however, that effective for Participants who first became eligible to participate in the Plan on or after January 1, 2007, if the
Comprehensive 

  

 - 6 - 

 
Benefit is paid prior to age 62, then the Target Benefit will be reduced on an Actuarially Equivalent basis to reflect early commencement from age 62 to the
date the Comprehensive Benefit is actually paid. 
 (ii) Qualified Plan Benefit is the amount of annual retirement income that is
payable to or for the benefit of the Participant under the Assurant Pension Plan as of his Separation from Service Date. 
 (iii)
Nonqualifed Plan Benefit is the lump sum payable to or for the benefit of the Participant under the Assurant Executive Pension Plan as of his Separation from Service Date. 
 (iv) Social Security Benefit is defined in Article Two of this Plan. 
 (v) Other Benefit is the amount of any other benefit that is payable to or for the benefit of the Participant as of his Separation from Service Date as specified in the Compensation Committee resolutions
approving his participation in the Plan. 
 A Participant’s Comprehensive Benefit shall not change after the Participant’s Separation from Service
Date except as provided in Section 4.04(b) (Social Security Offset). 
 4.02 Calculation of Benefit Service. A Participant’s Benefit Service
begins on the date he begins active, full-time employment with Assurant or any of its subsidiaries, and ends on his Separation from Service Date. For the first and last calendars months of the Participant’s employment, active employment by the
Participant with Assurant or any of its subsidiaries for any part of a calendar month is deemed to be a full month of Benefit Service. If a Participant was formerly employed by a company that is acquired by Assurant or any of its subsidiaries, then
Benefit Service prior to the date of such acquisition shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, and shall be recorded in the Compensation Committee resolutions approving the Participant’s participation in the
Plan. 
 4.03 Commencement and Form of Comprehensive Benefit. The Participant’s Comprehensive Benefit shall be paid in a single lump sum as soon
as administratively feasible, but no later than 90 days, after the Participant’s Separation from Service Date. With respect to a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A), payment may not occur before the date that is six
months after the Participant’s Separation from Service Date (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant). 
 4.04 Adjustment of
Comprehensive Benefit in Certain Cases. 
 (a) Form of Qualified Plan Benefit. The retirement income under the Assurant Pension
Plan shall be the amount, expressed as a single life annuity for the life of the Participant, which would be paid under the Assurant Pension Plan as of the Participant’s Separation from Service Date. For this purpose, if the Assurant Pension
Plan does not have actuarial reduction factors for benefits commencing before a certain time, then such reduction shall be done on an Actuarially Equivalent basis. 
  

 - 7 - 

 (b) Social Security Benefit Offset. If the Participant’s lump sum is paid from this Plan paid
before the Participant is eligible for a Social Security Benefit, then the Social Security Benefit shall be (i) calculated as though the Participant was eligible to receive his Social Security Benefit on the date he receives payment from this
Plan; and (ii) reduced on an Actuarially Equivalent basis from the date of Social Security eligibility to the date the Comprehensive Benefit is paid hereunder. 
 4.05 Vesting. 
 (a) Three Percent Monthly Vesting after Second Anniversary of Participation in the
Plan. A Participant shall be zero percent (0%) vested and have no right to a Comprehensive Benefit if the Participant terminates employment with Assurant and its subsidiaries before the second anniversary of the date on which the Participant
commenced participation in the Plan. Beginning on such second anniversary, the Participant shall thereafter become vested in his Comprehensive Benefit at the rate of three percent (3%) for each month of Benefit Service accrued thereafter, to a
maximum vesting percentage of 100%. 
 (b) Full Vesting upon Death. If a Participant dies while employed by Assurant or any of its
subsidiaries, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be entitled to the death benefit described in Section 5.01 of this Plan regardless of whether or not the Participant was fully vested in his Comprehensive Benefit at the time of his
death. 
 (c) Full Vesting upon Disability. If a Participant becomes Disabled, then the Participant shall become 100% vested in his
Comprehensive Benefit as of the date of his Disability. 
 (d) Full Vesting upon Change in Control. If (A) there is a Change in
Control with respect to Assurant (as defined in subparagraph (ii), (iii), or (iv) of Section 9.01), or a Change in Control with respect to a Division (as defined in subparagraph (i) of Article Nine); and (B) a Participant has an
Adverse Change in Circumstance within two (2) years following the Change in Control, then the Participant shall become 100% vested immediately in his Comprehensive Benefit. 
 (e) Forfeiture if Termination is for Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.05, if a Participant’s employment
with Assurant or any of its subsidiaries is terminated for Cause, then such Participant shall forfeit his entire Comprehensive Benefit hereunder. 
 4.06
[reserved] 
 4.07 Participant’s Covenants. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, if a Participant eligible to receive a
Comprehensive Benefit under this Plan commits a material breach, as determined by the Compensation Committee, of the covenants set 

  

 - 8 - 

 
forth below concerning noncompetition (including, but not limited to, refraining from becoming associated with or engaging in or rendering services to any
business that is in competition in a substantive way with the Employer), confidentiality, nonsolicitation of employees or nonsolicitation of customers, then the Participant shall cease to participate in the Plan as of the date of such breach and the
Participant shall forfeit his entire Comprehensive Benefit hereunder. Assurant shall have no further obligation to pay a Comprehensive Benefit to the Participant or his Spouse or Beneficiary. 
 (a) Noncompetition. Participant’s receipt of his Comprehensive Benefit under the Plan is subject to and contingent upon refraining from
becoming associated with or engaging in or rendering services to any business that is in competition in a substantive way with the Participant’s Employer for a period of two (2) years following his Separation from Service Date. Participant
shall not, without Assurant’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, alone or as a partner, officer, director, manager or shareholder of any company or business organization, engage in any such competing business activity. The ownership
by Participant of not more than one percent (1%) of the shares of stock of any corporation having a class of equity securities actively traded on a national securities exchange or on NASDAQ shall not be deemed to violate the prohibitions of
this Section 4.07(a). 
 (b) Confidentiality. Participant will retain in confidence any confidential information, including,
without limitation, any and all specifications, designs, business plans, financial information, proposals, reports, marketing plans and information, cost information, customer information, sales volumes and other sales statistics, personnel data,
profit margins, sources of supply, pricing information, development plans, business strategies, trade secrets, concepts and ideas, known to him concerning the Employer and their business. Participant will hold all confidential information in trust
and in strictest confidence, and will protect the confidential information from dissemination, reproduction or disclosure. The obligations of Participant under this Section 4.07(b) shall not apply or will cease to apply to information which has
become generally known to the public through no wrongful act of Participant. 
 (c) Nonsolicitation of Employees. Participant
acknowledges and agrees that he shall not, without Assurant’s prior written consent, seek in any manner, directly or indirectly, to induce any person who is employed by Assurant or any of its subsidiaries at any time during his employment or
after his Separation from Service Date to leave his employment with Assurant or any of its subsidiaries to enter into an employment relationship with any entity that competes in a substantive way with Assurant or any of its subsidiaries. 

(d) Nonsolicitation of Customers, Brokers or Agents. Participant shall not, without Assurant’s prior written consent, call on, solicit,
take away, or attempt to call on, solicit, or take away any existing customer, broker, or agent doing business with the Employer as of the Participant’s Separation from Date. 
  

 - 9 - 

 ARTICLE FIVE – DEATH BENEFIT 
 If a Participant dies before his Comprehensive Benefit is paid, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive the Participant’s Comprehensive Benefit accrued to the date of his death under
Section 4.01 in the form of a lump sum to be paid as soon as administratively feasible, but no later than 90 days, following the date of the Participant’s death. 
 The amount of the death benefit shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Participant’s Comprehensive Benefit accrued to the date of death. However, the death benefit shall be subject to the reductions described
in Sections 4.01 and 4.04. 
 ARTICLE SIX – [reserved] 
 ARTICLE SEVEN – FUNDING POLICY 
 Neither Assurant nor any of its
subsidiaries shall be obligated to fund the payment of benefits hereunder. The funds necessary to pay benefits accrued under this Plan shall be paid from the general assets of the Employer. To the extent that any Participant, Spouse or Beneficiary
acquires the right to receive payments under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor of the Employer. 
 ARTICLE EIGHT – ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 
 8.01 Committee  
 (a) The Compensation Committee shall appoint the members of the Committee who shall serve at the pleasure of the Compensation Committee and, except as
otherwise provided in this Plan, shall have complete control of the administration of the Plan with all powers necessary to enable it to carry out properly the provisions of the Plan. 
 (b) In addition to all implied powers and responsibilities necessary to carry out the objectives of the Plan and any related resolutions, the Committee
shall have the power: 
 (i) to construe the Plan and to determine all questions arising in the administration, interpretation
and operation of the Plan and any related resolutions, and to adopt such rules and by-laws as it may find necessary for the proper administration, interpretation and operation of the Plan or any related resolutions provided that all interpretations,
determinations and decisions of the Committee in respect of any matter hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Employer, Participants, and all other persons claiming any interest under the Plan or any related resolutions, subject
only to (i) the provisions of this Section regarding review by the Compensation Committee, and (ii) the claims procedure described in Section 8.02; and 
  

 - 10 - 

 (ii) to amend any or all of the provisions of the Plan, except if any amendment would
significantly increase the liabilities of the Plan. 
 (c) The Committee shall have the authority to appoint and remove the administrators or
other outside persons or vendors, and to delegate such duties to each administrator or other persons or vendors as the Committee deems appropriate. 
 (d) If a member of the Committee is also a Participant in this Plan, and if an issue or action with respect to this Plan relates specifically and uniquely to such Participant, then such Participant shall take no part in the deliberations or
decision concerning such issue or action. 
 (e) Each material financial decision or action by the Committee shall be subject to review by
the Compensation Committee. Any decision or action by the Committee that relates specifically and uniquely to the Chief Executive Officer of Assurant shall be deemed to be a material financial decision or action. 
 (f) Wherever this Plan provides that a decision or action of the Committee (material or otherwise) shall be subject to the review of the Compensation
Committee, then such decision or action shall be reported to the Compensation Committee, and such decision or action may be overruled or modified by the Compensation Committee. If the Compensation Committee takes no action with respect to any such
decision or action within sixty (60) days of it being reported, the decision or action shall be deemed approved. Until a decision or action subject to this paragraph has been reviewed or is deemed approved by the Compensation Committee, such
decision or action shall have no legal effect. 
 8.01A Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee shall have the power to appoint and remove
the members of the Committee and to review material financial decisions and/or actions of the Committee, including the power to make any Plan amendment that would significantly increase the liabilities of the Plan. In addition to the provisions in
Section 4.07, the Compensation Committee shall have the power to approve an Executive’s nomination for participation in the Plan, and to pass any resolutions to provide for an increased benefit to any Participant (including, without
limitation, by crediting additional years of Benefit Service to the Participant, or by assuming that the Participant is a given number of years older than is actually the case); provided, however, that any resolutions to increase benefits shall
comply with the plan amendment rules in Section 409A and shall only be effective with respect to compensation for services to be performed in subsequent Plan Years. Otherwise, such resolutions shall be null and void. Furthermore, the
Compensation Committee shall have the power to terminate the Plan at any time in whole or in part, and provide for the payment of all benefits accrued under the Plan and accelerate payment of all benefits accrued under the Plan, subject to
Section 409A. The Compensation Committee shall have no other responsibilities with respect to the Plan. 
  

 - 11 -

the Plan. The Executive Committee also shall have the power to determine the Plan’s funding policy, if any. The Executive Committee shall have no other responsibilities with respect to the Plan.

file a claim for benefits under the Plan by submitting to the Committee a written statement describing the nature of the claim and requesting a determination of its validity under the terms of the Plan. Subject to the provisions of
Section 8.01, within 90 days after the date such claim is received by the Committee, it shall issue a ruling with respect to the claim. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, written notice shall be furnished to the claimant, that shall

 Any Participant, Spouse or Beneficiary (or his authorized representative) whose claim for benefits has been denied, may appeal such denial by
resubmitting to the Committee a written statement requesting a further review of the decision within 60 days of the date the claimant receives notice of such denial. Such statement shall set forth the reasons supporting the claim, the reasons such
claim should not have been denied, and any other issues or comments that the claimant deems appropriate with respect to the claim. 
 If the
claimant shall request in writing, the Committee shall make copies of the Plan documents pertinent to his claim available for examination by the claimant. 
 Within 60 days after the request for further review is received, the Committee shall review its determination of benefits and the reasons therefor and notify the claimant in writing of its final decision. Such written
notice shall include specific reasons for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, with specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based.

such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the corporation resulting from such
Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially 

  

 - 13 - 

 
all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Current
Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination; (2) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such
Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business
Combination, and (3) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Board at the time of the execution of the initial Business Combination agreement,
or of the action of the Board providing for such Business Combination. 
 (iv) Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company, unless the Division has been transferred to some other Person controlled, directly or indirectly, by Assurant prior to such liquidation or dissolution. 
 9.02 Certain Changes to Plan upon a Change in Control. If (A) there is a Change in Control with respect to Assurant (as defined in Section 9.01(ii),
(iii), or (iv)), or a Change in Control with respect to a Division (as defined in Section 9.01(i)); and (B) a Participant has an Adverse Change in Circumstance within two (2) years following the Change in Control then, upon the
Participant's termination of employment following such Adverse Change in Circumstances: 
 (i) the Participant shall be credited immediately
with thirty-six (36) additional months of Benefit Service; and 
 (ii) the actuarial reduction for commencement of the Plan benefit
prior to age 60 shall be calculated as though the Participant was thirty-six (36) months older than his actual age. 
 ARTICLE TEN
– MISCELLANEOUS 
 10.01 Right to Amend and Terminate. Subject to the provisions in Article 8 regarding the amendment authority of the
Committee, the Compensation Committee reserves the right to modify, alter, amend, or terminate the Plan, at any time and from time to time, without notice, and in accordance with the rules under Section 409A; provided, however, that no such
amendment or termination shall (without the written consent of the Participant, if living, and if not, of the Participant’s Spouse or other applicable Beneficiary) reduce the amount or delay the timing of payment of any retirement benefit,
disability benefit, or survivor benefit under the Plan that has accrued with respect to the Participant or his Spouse or Beneficiary as of the date of such amendment or termination (regardless of whether or not such benefit is vested under
Section 4.05 and regardless of whether or not such benefit is in pay status). For this purpose, the benefit that shall have 

  

 - 14 - 

 
accrued as of the date of a given amendment or date of termination shall be based on the Participant’s Annual Target Earnings, Benefit Service, Vesting
Service, and other applicable factors as of the date of such amendment or termination. Furthermore, if permitted by Section 409A, the termination of the Plan will involve both the amendment of the Plan to provide for payment of all benefits
accrued under the Plan and the accelerated payment of benefits accrued under the Plan. 
 10.02 Nonassignment of Benefits. The Comprehensive Benefit
payable under the Plan shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, assignment, garnishment or pledge and any attempt to anticipate, assign, garnish or pledge the same shall be void and no such benefits shall be in any manner liable for or
subject to the debts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant, Spouse or Beneficiary. 
 10.03 Merger Of Employer. If Assurant and
substantially all of its subsidiaries are acquired by, merged into, or sell substantially all of their assets to any other organization, the Plan shall not be automatically terminated, but instead shall be continued thereafter by such successor
organization. All rights to amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan shall be transferred to the successor organization, effective as of the date of combination or sale. 
 10.04 [reserved] 
 10.05 No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any
Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Employer or to deny the Employer any right it may have to discharge him at any time. 
 10.06
Construction. To the extent not preempted by federal law, the Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 10.07 Severability. The invalidity and unenforceability of any particular provision of this Plan shall not affect any other provision hereof, and the Plan shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable
provision were omitted or modified so as to cure such defect. 
 10.08 Guarantee. If the form of payment to a Participant or Beneficiary is scheduled
to provide payments over a period of more than one (1) year, and if at the time such payments commence Assurant is not subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code, then Fortis Insurance N.V. hereby
guarantees the payment of each and every benefit to such Participant or Beneficiary under this Plan, and such guarantee shall be unconditional, legally binding, and irrevocable. However, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event that
Fortis Insurance N.V., including its affiliates or successors, ceases to be the beneficial owner of Assurant, then the amount of the guarantee under the preceding sentence shall be set as the Actuarial Equivalent of the Participant’s
Comprehensive Benefit immediately following such cessation of beneficial ownership. 
  

 - 15 - 

 10.09 Notices. All notices and other communications made pursuant to this Agreement must be in writing and must be
given by hand delivery, or by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier, or by telecopy with a confirmation copy sent by either overnight courier or first-class mail, and addressed as follows: 
 If to the Participant, then to the Participant's last known address. 
 If to the Company: 
 Assurant, Inc. 
 Attention: Benefit Plans Committee 
 One Chase
Manhattan Plaza 
 41st Floor 
 New York, NY 10005 
 or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance with this Section. Notice and communications shall be effective when
actually received by the addressee. 
 10.10 Deduction Limitation. If the Committee determines in good faith that there is a reasonable likelihood
that any compensation paid to a Participant for a taxable year of the Company would not be deductible by the Company or the Employer solely by reason of the limitation under Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the
Committee to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant pursuant to this Plan is deductible, the Committee may delay all or any portion of a distribution under this Plan. The amounts so delayed shall be distributed to the
Participant or his Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant’s death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Committee in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable
year of the Company or the Employer during which the distribution is made will not be limited by Code Section 162(m). 
 10.11 Prohibited
Acceleration/Distribution Timing. This Section 10.11 shall take precedence over any other provision of the Plan to the contrary. No provision of this Plan shall be followed if following the provision would result in the acceleration
of the time or schedule of any payment from the Plan as would require immediate income tax to Participants based on the law in effect at the time the distribution is to be made, including Section 409A. In addition, a payment may be delayed
after a designated payment date under the circumstances described in Section 409A, including payments subject to Code Section 162(m), or payments that would violate federal securities or other applicable law. In such case, payment will be
made at the earliest date on which the Company reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will not cause such violation. The making of a payment that would cause inclusion in gross income or the application of any penalty provision or
other provision of the Code is not treated as a violation of applicable law.
