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. 

    (e) The
fact and date of execution of any such instrument or writing, the authority of the Person executing the same and the principal amount and serial numbers of

amount determined by the Company that could be declared to be due and payable pursuant to the terms of such Original Issue Discount Security as of the date there is delivered to the Trustee and, where
it is hereby expressly required, to the Company, such Act by Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series and (ii) each Debt Security
denominated in a Foreign Currency or composite currency shall be deemed to have the principal amount determined by the Exchange Rate
Agent by converting the principal amount of such Debt Security in the currency in which such Debt Security is denominated into Dollars at the Exchange Rate as of the date such Act is delivered to the
Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company by Holders of the required aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series (or, if there is no such rate
on such date, such rate on the date determined as specified as contemplated in Section 301). 

    (h) The
Company may set a record for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of Debt Securities of any series entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote
or consent authorized or permitted by Section 512 or Section 513. Such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the

or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration.

    SECTION
106. Notice to Holders; Wavier.

    Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, (1) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of
Registered Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Registered Security affected by such event, at such Holder's address as it appears in the Security
Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice; and (2) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Bearer
Securities by publication thereof in an Authorized Newspaper in The City of New York and, if the Debt Securities of such series are then listed on The International Stock Exchange of the United
Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland and such stock exchange shall so require, in London, and, if the Debt Securities of such series are then listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such stock
exchange shall so require, in Luxembourg and, if the Debt Securities of such

    In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or for any reason, it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders
when said notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be
deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Registered Securities is to be 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
by publication to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided above. 

    In
case, by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized Newspaper, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impossible or impracticable to make publication of any
notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, then such method of publication or notification as shall be made with approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient publication of
such notice. Neither 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
mailed to Holders of Registered Securities as provided above. 

    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
wavier 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 wavier. 

    Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act 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.

Securities for Capital Securities or cash need not be made at such Place of Payment or Place of Capital Exchange on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of
Payment or Place of Capital Exchange with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, Capital Exchange Date or Stated Maturity, and no interest
shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, Capital Exchange Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers' Certificate setting forth the terms of the series. 

    SECTION
302. Denominations.

    Debt
Securities of each series shall be issuable in such form and denominations as shall be specified in the form of Debt Security for such series approved or established pursuant to
Section 201 or in the Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 301. In the absence of any specification with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, the Registered
Securities of such series, if any, shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof and the Bearer Securities of such series, if any, shall be issuable in the
denomination of $5,000. 

    SECTION
303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

    (a) The
Debt Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board, a Vice Chairman
of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Operating Officer, a Vice Chairman, the Chief Financial Officer, or a Vice President, and by its Treasurer or one of its Assistant
Treasurers or its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries under its corporate seal reproduced thereon. The signature of any of these officers on the Debt Securities may be manual or facsimile.
Coupons shall bear the facsimile signature of the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the Company. 

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

    (b) At
any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, Debt Securities of any series may be executed by the Company and delivered to
the Trustee for authentication, and, except as otherwise provided in this Article Three, shall thereupon be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee upon Company Order, without any further action by
the Company; provided, however, that, in connection with its original issuance, a Bearer Security may be
delivered only outside the United States and, except in the case of a temporary Global Security, only if the Company or its agent shall have received the certification required pursuant to Sections
304(b)(iii) and (iv), unless such certification shall have been provided earlier pursuant to Section 304(b)(v) hereof, and only if the Company has no reason to know that such
certification is false. 

    To
the extent authorized in or pursuant to a Board Resolution and set forth in an Officers' Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, such written
Company Order may be given by any one officer of the Company, may be electronically transmitted, and may provide instructions as to registration of holders, principal amounts, rates of interest,
maturity dates and other matters contemplated by such Board Resolution and Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture to be so instructed in respect thereof. Before authorizing and delivering the
first Debt Securities of any series (and upon request of the Trustee thereafter), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee (i) the 

16

 

certificates called for under Sections 201 and 301 hereof and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel described in the next sentence. 

    In
authenticating such Debt Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to any Debt Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, prior to the initial authentication of such Debt Securities, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 

	(i)
	a
Board Resolution relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken pursuant to such resolution certified by the
Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;

	(ii)
	an
executed supplemental indenture, if any, relating thereto;

	(iii)
	an
Officers' Certificate setting forth the form and terms of the Debt Securities of such series and coupons, if any, pursuant to Sections 201 and
301 and stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of such Debt Securities have been complied with, that no Event of Default with respect to any
series of Debt Securities has occurred and is continuing and that the issuance of such Debt Securities is not and will not result in an Event of Default or an event or condition which, upon the giving
of notice (or the acquisition of knowledge) or the lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default; and

	(iv)
	an
Opinion of Counsel stating 

    (A) that
the form of such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, has been established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or by a supplemental indenture as permitted by
Section 201 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 

    (B) that
the terms of such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, have been established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or by a supplemental indenture as permitted
by Section 301 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 

    (C) that
such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions
specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with
their terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally and the application of general
principles of equity, except that where the Debt Securities of any series are to be exchanged for Capital Securities or paid from the Securities Fund, the issuance of Capital Securities will require
further action by the Board of Directors; 

    (D) that
the Company has the corporate power to issue such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, and has duly taken all necessary corporate action with respect to such
issuance; 

    (E) that
the issuance of such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, will not contravene the charter or by-laws of the Company or result in any violation of
any of the terms or provisions of any law or regulation or of any material indenture, mortgage or other agreement known to such counsel by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound; 

    (F) that
all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of such Debt Securities and coupons, if any, have been complied with and that
authentication and delivery of such Debt Securities by the Trustee will not violate the terms of the Indenture; and 

17

 

    (G) such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. 

    (c) If
the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 301 that the Debt Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more
Global Securities, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section and the Company Order with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Global
Securities in permanent or temporary form that (i) shall represent and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of
such series to be represented by one or more Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee of such Depositary
and (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction. 

    (d) The
Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Debt Securities under this Section 303 if (i) the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or (ii) the issuance of such Debt Securities will adversely affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the
Debt Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 

    (e) If
all the Debt Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of
each Debt Security, but such Opinion of Counsel, with appropriate modifications, may instead be delivered at or prior to the time of the first issuance of Debt Securities of such series. 

    (f)  Each
Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Each Bearer Security shall be dated as of the date specified as contemplated by
Section 301. 

    (g) No
Debt Security or coupon attached thereto shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on
such Debt Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee, and such certificate upon any Debt Security shall be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Debt Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Except as permitted by Section 306, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer
Security unless all appurtenant coupons for interest then matured have been detached and cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Debt Security or portion thereof shall have been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Debt Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309
together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Debt Security or portion thereof has never been
issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Debt Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture. 

    (h) Each
Depositary designated pursuant to Section 301 for a Global Security in registered form must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it
serves as Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other applicable statute or regulation. 

    SECTION
304. Temporary Debt Securities.

    (a) Pending
the preparation of definitive Debt Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon receipt of documents required by Section 301 and 303,
together with a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Debt Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
denomination, substantially of the tenor and terms of the definitive Debt 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 Debt Securities may determine, as evidenced by their signatures on
such Debt Securities. In the case of Debt Securities 

18

 

of any series issuable as Bearer Securities, such temporary Debt Securities may be in global form representing all or any part of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series. 

    (b) Unless
otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301: 

	(i)
	Except
in the case of temporary Debt Securities in global form, if temporary Debt Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause
definitive Debt Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Debt Securities of such series, the related temporary Debt Securities shall be
exchangeable for such definitive Debt Securities upon surrender of the temporary Debt Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for such series, without
charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Debt Securities of any series (accompanied, if applicable, by all 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 Debt Securities of the same series of
like tenor and terms and of authorized denominations; provided, however, that no Bearer Security shall
be delivered in exchange for a Registered Security; and provided, further, that a Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a Bearer Security only in compliance with the conditions set forth
in Section 305.

	(ii)
	If
Debt Securities of any series are issued in temporary global form, any such temporary Global Security shall, unless otherwise provided pursuant
to Section 301, be delivered to the Depositary for the benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream S.A., for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Debt Securities (or to
such other accounts as they may direct).

	(iii)
	Without
unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary Global
Security (the "Global Exchange Date"), the Company shall deliver definitive Debt Securities to the Trustee or the agent appointed by the Company pursuant to Section 301 to effect the exchange
of the temporary Global Security for definitive Debt Securities (the "Global Exchange Agent"), in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary Global Security,
executed by the Company. On or after the Global Exchange Date, such temporary Global Security shall be surrendered by the Depository to the Global Exchange Agent, to be exchanged, in whole or from
time to time in part, for definitive Debt Securities without charge and the Trustee or the Global Exchange Agent, if authorized by the Trustee pursuant to Section 614, shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for each portion of such temporary Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Debt Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like
tenor and terms as the portion of such temporary Global Security to be exchanged. Upon any exchange of a part of such temporary Global Security for definitive Debt Securities, the portion of the
principal amount and any interest thereon so exchanged shall be endorsed by the Global Exchange Agent on a schedule to such temporary Global Security, whereupon the principal amount and interest
payable with respect to such temporary Global Security shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed. The definitive Debt Securities to be delivered in exchange for any
such temporary Global Security shall be in bearer form, registered form, global registered form or global bearer form, or any combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by Section 301,
and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof; provided,  however, that, in the case of the exchange of the
temporary Global Security for definitive Bearer Securities (including a definitive Global Bearer
Security), upon such presentation by
the Depositary, such temporary Global Security shall be accompanied by a certificate signed by Euroclear as to the portion of such temporary Global Security held for its account then to be exchanged
and a certificate signed by Clearstream S.A. as to the 

19

 

portion
of such temporary Global Security held for its account then to be exchanged, each in form set forth in Exhibit B to this Indenture, unless such certificate(s) shall have been provided
earlier pursuant to Section 304(b)(v) hereof; and provided, further, that definitive
Bearer Securities (including a definitive Global Bearer Security) shall be delivered in exchange for a portion of a temporary Global Security only in compliance with the requirements of
Section 303. 

	(iv)
	The
interest of a beneficial owner of Debt Securities in a temporary Global Security shall be exchanged for definitive Debt Securities of the same
series of like tenor and terms following the Global Exchange Date when the account holder instructs Euroclear or Clearstream S.A., as the case may be, to request such exchange on such account holder's
behalf and in the case of the exchange of the temporary Global Security for definitive Bearer Securities (including a definitive Global Bearer Security), unless such certificate(s) shall have been
earlier provided pursuant to Section 304(b)(v) hereof, the account holder delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream S.A., as the case may be, a certificate in the form set forth in
Exhibit A-1 and, if applicable A-2 to this Indenture, dated no earlier that 15 days prior to the Global Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be
available from the offices of Euroclear and Clearstream S.A., the Global Exchange Agent, any authenticating agent appointed for such series of Debt Securities and each Paying Agent. Unless otherwise
specified in such temporary Global Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary Global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Debt
Securities must bear the cost of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such Person does not take delivery of such definitive Debt Securities in person at the offices of
Euroclear and Clearstream S.A. Definitive Debt Securities in bearer form to be delivered in exchange for any portion of a temporary Global Security shall be delivered only outside the United States.

	(v)
	Until
exchanged in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Debt Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
under this Indenture as definitive Debt Securities of the same series and of like tenor and terms authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that interest payable on a temporary Global Security on
an Interest Payment Date shall be payable to Euroclear and Clearstream S.A. on such Interest Payment Date only if there has been delivery by Euroclear and Clearstream S.A. to the Global Exchange Agent
of a certificate or certificates in form set forth in Exhibit B to this Indenture dated no earlier that the first Interest Payment Date, 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 Security on such Interest Payment Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear
or Clearstream S.A., as the case may be, a certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 and, if applicable, A-2 to this Indenture dated no earlier than the first
Interest Payment Date. Any interest so received by Euroclear and Clearstream S.A. and not paid as herein provided prior to the Global Exchange Date shall be returned to the Global Exchange Agent
which, upon expiration of two years after such Interest Payment Date shall repay such interest to the Company in accordance with Section 1003. 

    SECTION
305. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

    The
Company shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be maintained by the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 305 and
Section 1002, with respect to the Debt Securities of each series which are Registered Securities, a register (herein sometimes referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Registered Securities and of transfers of Registered Securities. Pursuant to Section 301, the
Company shall appoint, with respect to Debt Securities of each series which are Registered Securities, a "Security Registrar" for the purposes of registering such Debt Securities and transfers and
exchanges of such Debt Securities as herein provided. 

20

 

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

    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 like tenor and terms and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Registered Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Bearer Securities may not be delivered in exchange for
Registered Securities. 

    At
the option of the Holder, Registered Securities or Bearer Securities of any series may be issued in exchange for Bearer Securities (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301 with respect to a Bearer Security in global form) of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of
the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency, 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 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 and the Trustee if
there be 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;  provided, however, that, except as other provided in Section 1002, 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 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 and terms 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 date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the coupon relating to such Interest
Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be. 

    Whenever
any Debt Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Debt Securities which the Holder marking
the exchange is entitled to receive. 

    If
at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities of a series notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series
or if at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 303(h), the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the
Debt Security of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Debt Securities of such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes
aware of such ineligibility, the Company's election pursuant to Section 301(11) shall no longer be effective with respect to the Debt Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and
the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Debt Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver, Debt Securities of such series in
definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities. 

21

 

    The Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Debt Securities of any series issued in the form of one or 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 Debt Securities of
such series, will authenticate and deliver, Debt Securities of such series in definitive form and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities
representing such series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities. 

    If
specified by the Company pursuant to Section 301 with respect to a series of Debt Securities, the Depositary for such series of Debt Securities may surrender a Global
Security for such series of Debt Securities in exchange in whole or in part for Debt Securities of such series of like tenor and terms and in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to the
Company and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge, 

    (a) to
each Person specified by such Depositary a new Debt Security or Securities of the same series of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as
requested by such Person in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and 

    (b) to
such Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and terms and in denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the
surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities delivered to Holders thereof. 

    In
any exchange provided for in any of the proceeding three paragraphs, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Debt Securities (a) in definitive
registered form in authorized denominations if the Debt Securities of such series are issuable as Registered Security, (b) in definitive bearer form in authorized denominations, with coupons
attached, if the Debt Securities of each such series are issuable as Bearer Securities or (c) as either Registered or Bearer Securities, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof,
if the Debt Security of such series are issuable in either form; provided, however, that no definitive
Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Global Security unless the Company or its agent shall have received from the person entitled to receive the definitive Bearer Security a
certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 and, if applicable, A-2 hereto; and provided, further, that no delivery of a Bearer Security will be
issued if the Company has reason to know that any such certificate is false. 

    Upon
the exchange of a Global Security for Debt Securities in definitive form, such Global Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Registered Securities issued in exchange for a
Global Security pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or
indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Registered Securities to the persons in whose names such Debt Securities are so registered. The Trustee
shall deliver Bearer Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section to the persons, and in such authorized denominations, as the Depositary for such Global Security,
pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee; provided,  however, that no definitive Bearer
Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Global Security unless the Company or its agent shall have
received from the person entitled to receive the definitive Bearer Security a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 and, if applicable, A-2
hereto; and provided, further, that delivery of a Bearer Security shall occur only outside the United
States; and provided, further that no definitive Bearer Security will be issued if the Company has
reason to know that any such certificate is false. 

22

 

    All Debt Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange for Debt Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to
the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Debt Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

    Every
Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Security Registrar or the Trustee) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing. 

    No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities, other than exchanges expressly provided in this Indenture to be made
at the Company's own expense or without expense or without charge to the Holders. 

    The
Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Debt Securities of any particular series to be redeemed or exchanged for Capital Securities
for a period of fifteen days preceding the first publication of the relevant notice of redemption or, if Registered Securities are outstanding and there is no publication, the mailing of the relevant
notice of redemption or exchange, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption or exchange in whole or in part, except the unredeemed or
unexchanged portion of such Registered Security being redeemed or exchanged in part, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption or exchange except that such a Bearer
Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of like tenor and terms of that series, provided that such Registered Security shall be
simultaneously surrendered for redemption or exchange. 

    Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the exchange of Bearer Securities into Registered Securities shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations in effect at the time
of exchange; neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall exchange any Bearer Securities into Registered Securities if it has received an Opinion of Counsel that as a result of
such exchanges the Company would suffer adverse consequences under the United States federal income tax laws and regulations then in effect and the Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Order
directing the Trustee not to make such exchanges thereafter unless and until the Trustee receives a subsequent Company Order to the contrary. The Company shall deliver copies of such Company Orders to
the Security Registrar. 

    SECTION
306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Debt Securities.

    If
(i) any mutilated Debt Security or a Bearer Security with a mutilated coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to a Paying Agent outside the United States designated by the
Company, or, in the case of any Registered Security, to the Trustee, or (ii) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Debt
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 notice to the
Company and the Trustee that such Debt Security or coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
in exchange for any such mutilated Debt Security or Bearer Security with a mutilated coupon appertaining to it or to which a destroyed, lost or stolen
coupon appertains (with all appurtenant coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen) or in lieu of any such number not contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any,
appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains; provided,  however,
that any such new Bearer Security will be delivered only in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 305. 

23

 

    In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security or coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a
new Debt Security, pay such Debt Security or coupon; provided, however, that payment of principal of
(and premium, if any) and any interest on Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States; and  provided, further, that, with respect to any such coupons, interest represented thereby (but not any
additional amounts payable as provided in Section 1006), shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the coupons appertaining thereto. 

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

    Every
new Debt Security of any series, with its coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security, or in exchange for a Bearer
Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debt
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 Debt Security and coupons, if any, shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Debt Securities of that series 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 Debt Securities or coupons. 

    SECTION
307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

    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
Registered Security (or one
or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 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. At the option of the Company, payment of interest on any Registered Security may be made by check in the currency designated for such payment pursuant to the terms of
such Registered Security mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account in such currency designated by
such Person in writing not less than ten days prior to the date of such payment. 

    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 registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of his having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the
Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 

    (1) The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Registered 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 

24

 

Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Registered Security of
such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money and/or, to the extent such Debt Securities are denominated and
payable in Dollars only, Eligible Instruments the payments of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment and providing no tax liability will be imposed upon the Trustee or the
Holder of such Registered Securities) will provide money in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without investments) be equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit to the date of the proposed payment, such money
and/or Eligible Instruments when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than
10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date. Unless the Trustee is acting as the
Security Registrar, promptly after such Special Record Date, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with a list, or shall make special arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee with respect thereto, of
the names and addresses of, and principal amounts of Registered Securities of such series held by, the Holders appearing on the Security Register at the close of business on such Special Record Date.
In the name and at the expense of the Company, the Trustee 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 of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to
such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the Registered Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be
payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at the office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series in exchange for a Registered
Security of such series after the close of business at such office or agency on 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 such proposed date of payment and Defaulted Interest will not be payable on such proposed date
of payment 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. 

    (2) The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Registered Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements
of any securities exchange on which the 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, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

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

    Subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 1002, the Holder of any coupon appertaining to a Bearer Security shall be entitled to receive interest payable on such coupon
upon presentation and 

25

 

surrender of such coupon on or after the Interest Payment Date of such coupon at an office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002. 

    If
any Registered Security is exchanged for Capital Securities after any record date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Debt Security whose
Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid by the Company on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such
exchange, and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Debt Security is registered at the close of business on such record
date. 

    If
any Bearer Security is exchanged for Capital Securities after any record date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Debt Security whose
Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such exchange, and such
interest (whether or not punctually paid or duly provided for) shall be paid by the Company pursuant to such procedures as may be satisfactory to the Trustee. 

    SECTION
308. 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 of 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 premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307)
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. 

    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 Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on
account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

    SECTION
309. Cancellation.

    Unless
otherwise provided with respect to a series of Debt Securities, all Debt Securities and coupons surrendered for payment, redemption, repayment, transfer, exchange or credit
against any sinking fund payment pursuant to this Indenture, shall, if surrendered to the Company or any agent of the Company, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The
Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Debt Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and
all Debt Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Debt Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Debt Securities cancelled as provided in this
Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Debt Securities and coupons held by the Trustee shall be disposed according to its customary procedures. 

    SECTION
310. Computation of Interest.

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

26

 

    SECTION 311. Certification by a Person Entitled to Delivery of a Bearer Security.

    Whenever
any provision of this Indenture or a Debt Security contemplates that certification be given by a Person entitled to delivery of a Bearer Security, such certification shall be
provided substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 and, if applicable, A-2 hereto, with only such changes as shall be approved by the Company and consented to by the
Trustee whose consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. 

    SECTION
312. Judgments.

    The
Company may provide, pursuant to Section 301, for the Debt Securities of any series that, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law and except as may otherwise be
specified as contemplated in Section 301, (a) the obligation, if any, of the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debt Securities of any series and
any appurtenant coupons in a Foreign Currency, composite currency or Dollars (the "Designated Currency") as may be specified pursuant to Section 301 is of the essence and agrees that judgments
in respect of such Debt Securities shall be given in the Designated Currency; (b) the obligation of the Company to make payments in the Designated Currency of the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on such Debt Securities and any appurtenant coupons shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the
extent of the amount in the Designated Currency that the Holder receiving such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any
premium and cost of exchange) in the country of issue of the Designated Currency in the case of Foreign Currency or Dollars or in the international banking community in the case of a composite
currency on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such Holder receives such payment; (c) if the amount in the Designated Currency that may be so purchased for any reasons
falls short of the amount originally due, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to compensate for such shortfall; and (d) any obligation of the Company not
discharged by such payment shall be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. 

 
 

ARTICLE FOUR
  
    SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE    
  

    SECTION
401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

    This
Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities herein expressly
provided for and rights to receive payments of principal and interest thereon and any right to receive additional amounts, as provided in Section 1006) and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture when 

    (1) either

    (A) all
Debt Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered and all coupons appertaining thereto (other than (i) coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities
surrendered in exchange for Registered Securities and maturing after such exchange, surrender of which is not required or has been waived as provided in Section 305, (ii) Debt Securities
and coupons which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306, (iii) coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities called for
redemption or surrendered for repayment and maturing after the relevant Redemption Date or Repayment Date, as appropriate, surrender of which has been waived as provided in Section 1106 or 1303
and (iv) Debt Securities and coupons for whose payment money and/or Eligible Instruments 

27

 

have theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have
been delivered to the Trustee canceled or for cancellation; or 

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

	(i)
	have
become due and payable, or

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

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

and
the Company, in the case of (B)(i), (B)(ii) or (B)(iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for the purpose, money
and/or, to the extent such Debt Securities are denominated and payable in Dollars only, Eligible Instruments the payments of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment and
providing no tax liability will be imposed upon the Trustee or the Holders of Debt Securities) will provide money in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with
the Trustee, without investment) be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Debt Securities and coupons of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any
mandatory sinking fund, repayment or analogous payments thereon, on the scheduled due dates therefor to the date of such deposit (in the case of Debt Securities and coupons which have become due and
payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, if any, and all Repayment Dates (in the case of Debt Securities repayable at the option of the Holders thereof);  provided, however, that in the event a petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 or a
successor statute is filed with respect to the Company within 91 days after the deposit, the obligations of the Company under the Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of such series
shall not be deemed terminated or discharged, and in such event the Trustee shall be required to return the deposited money and Eligible Instruments to the Company; 

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

    (3) the
Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating
to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 

    Notwithstanding
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Sections 607 and, if money or Eligible Instruments shall have
been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of
Section 1003 shall survive. 

    SECTION
402. Application of Trust Money and Eligible Instruments.

    Subject
to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Eligible Instruments deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in
trust and such money and the principal and interest received on such Eligible Instruments shall be applied by it, in accordance with
the provisions of the Debt Securities, the coupons and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee
may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money or Eligible Instruments have been deposited with the Trustee. 

28

 
 
 

ARTICLE FIVE
  
    REMEDIES    
  

    SECTION
501. Events of Default.

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

    (1) the
entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or the Bank by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under the
Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Company or the Bank or of any substantial part of the property of either, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs
of either, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or 

    (2) the
commencement by the Company or the Bank of a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal
or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or the consent by the Company or the Bank to the entry of a decree or order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law or to the
appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of either of the foregoing or of any substantial part of the property of either, or the
making by the Company or the Bank of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by the Company or the Bank in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due,
or the taking of corporate action by the Company or the Bank in furtherance of any such action; or 

    (3) any
other Event of Default, if any, provided with respect to Debt Securities of such series specified as contemplated by Section 301. 

    SECTION
502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

    If
an Event of Default with respect to Debt Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not
less than 25% in principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of such series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Debt Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such
portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) of and all accrued but unpaid interest on all the Debt Securities of such series to be due and payable immediately, by
a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable.
Upon payment of such amount, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of principal of the Debt Securities of such series shall terminate. 

    At
any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Debt Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series, by written notice to the Company and
the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 

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

    (A) all
overdue installments of interest on all Debt Securities of such series and any related coupons, 

29

 

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

    (C) to
the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments for interest on each Debt Security and any related coupons at the rate or
rates prescribed therefor in such Debt Securities, and 

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

    and

    (2) all
Events of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 

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

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

    The
Company covenants that if: 

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

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

    (3) defaults
in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Debt Security of such series, or 

    (4) defaults
in any required designation of funds as Securities Funds, or 

    (5) defaults
in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (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 series of Debt Securities other than
such series), and such default or breach continues for a period of 30 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the
Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice
of Default" hereunder, 

the
Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Debt Securities and coupons, the amount then due and payable on such Debt Securities and coupons for any
overdue principal (and premium, if any) and interest, sinking fund installment and interest, including the delivery of any Capital Securities then required to be delivered, and, to the extent that
payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in
such Debt Securities; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

    If
the Company fails to pay such amounts (including the delivery of any Capital Securities then required to be delivered) forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and
as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid and the delivery of any Capital Securities required to be delivered and not so
delivered, or, in the case 

30

 

of the failure to deliver Capital Securities, money equal to the principal amount of the Debt Securities for which the Capital Securities were to be exchanged, and may prosecute such proceeding to
judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Debt Securities and coupons and collect the moneys (or money equal to the principal amount of the
Debt Securities for which Capital Securities were to be exchanged) adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such
Debt Securities and coupons, wherever situated. 

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

    SECTION
504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

    In
case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceedings, or any voluntary
or involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter constituted, relative to the Company or
any other obligor upon the Debt Securities of a particular series or any related coupons or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of
whether the principal of such Debt 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, 

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

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

and
any receiver, assignee, trustee, custodian, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and
in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. 

    Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Debt 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 in any such
proceeding. 

    SECTION
505. Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Debt Securities or Coupons.

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

31

  

    SECTION

    No
Holder of any Debt Security of any series or any related coupons shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 

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

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

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

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

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

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

Securities.

    Notwithstanding
any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Debt Security or coupon shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional to receive payment of such
coupon on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security or coupon (or, in the case of
redemption, on the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may be), to have the Debt Securities exchanged for Capital Securities pursuant to Article Fourteen, if applicable, and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or exchange, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder, subject, however, to the provisions of Article Eighteen. 

    SECTION
509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

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

    SECTION
510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

    Except
as otherwise provided in Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other
right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or
in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

    SECTION
511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

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

512. Control by Holders of Debt Securities.

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

    (2) subject
to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a
Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders of Debt Securities of such series not joining in any
such direction (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders); and 

    (3) the
Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 

    SECTION
513. Waiver of Past Defaults.

33

 

    The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Debt Securities of any such series
and any related coupons waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default 

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

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

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

    SECTION
514. Undertaking for Costs.

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

    SECTION
515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

    The
Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage
of, any stay or extension law whenever 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 benefits 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.

respect to Debt Securities of any series, except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of such series, 

    (1) the
Trustee undertakes to perform such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Indenture against the Trustee; and 

34

 

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

    (b) In
case an Event of Default with respect to Debt Securities of any series has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall, with respect to the Debt Securities of
such series or any coupons, as the case may be, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs. 

    (c) No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own
willful misconduct, except that 

    (1) this
Subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section. 

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

in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Debt Securities of such series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of such series. 

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

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

    SECTION

    Within
90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder with respect to Debt Securities of any series the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Debt Securities

however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any) or interest on any Debt Security of such series or any related coupons or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Debt Securities of such series or in the exchange of
Capital Securities for Debt Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee
of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Debt Securities of such series. For the
purpose of this Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series.

    SECTION

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

    (3) to
indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based upon the income of the

    There
shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of
Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000, and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State
authority; provided, however, that if Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act or the rules and
regulations of the Commission under
the Trust Indenture Act at any time permit a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of any other jurisdiction to serve as trustee of an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture
Act, this Section 609 shall be automatically amended to permit a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of any such other jurisdiction to serve as Trustee hereunder. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. Neither the Company nor any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company may serve as Trustee. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

    SECTION
610. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

38

 

    (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 611. 

    (b) The
Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If an instrument of
acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation or removal, the retiring Trustee may petition at the
expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series. 

    (c) The
Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Debt Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Debt Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 

    (d) If
at any time: 

    (1) the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 with respect to any series of Debt Securities and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or 

    (2) the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any series of Debt Securities or a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the
premises shall have been entered in respect of the Trustee in an involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; or a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall have been entered for the appointment of a receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Trustee or of its property or affairs, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation, winding up or liquidation, or 

    (3) the
Trustee shall commence a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Trustee or
its property or affairs, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or shall take corporate action
in furtherance of any such action, 

then,
in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to such series or (ii) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona
fide Holder of a Debt Security of any series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee for the Debt Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

    (e) If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of
Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Debt Securities or one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Debt
Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Debt 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 Debt Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series 

39

 

delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Debt
Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series shall have been so
appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted anointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of such series for at least six months
may, subject to Section 514, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Debt Securities of such series. 

    (f)  The
Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series and each appointment of a
successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Registered Securities, if any, of
such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register and, if Debt Securities of such series are issuable as Bearer Securities, by publishing notice of such event once in an
Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment located outside the United States. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series and the
address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

    SECTION
611. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

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

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

40

 

property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Debt Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 

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

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

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

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

    SECTION
613. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

    (a) Subject
to Subsection (b) of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company
within three months prior to a default, as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section, or subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set
apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the Holders of the Debt Securities and coupons and the holders of other indenture securities (as defined in Subsection
(c) of this Section): 

    (1) an
amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest, effected after the
beginning of such three-month period and
valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in paragraph (2) of this Subsection, or from
the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee could have exercised if a voluntary or involuntary case had been commenced in respect of the Company under the Federal bankruptcy
laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law upon the date of such default; and 

    (2) all
property received by the Trustee in respect of any claims as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition thereof, or
otherwise, after the beginning of such three-month period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its
other creditors in such property or such proceeds. 

    Nothing
herein contained, however, shall affect the right of the Trustee: 

    (A) to
retain for its own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any Person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and
(ii) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third Person, and (iii) distributions made in cash, securities or other property in respect of claims filed
against the Company in bankruptcy or 

41

 

receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law; 

    (B) to
realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim if such property was so held prior to the beginning of such three-month
period; 

    (C) to
realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such
claim was created after the beginning of such three-month period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the
burden of proving that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section would occur within
three months; or 

    (D) to
receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph (B) or (C), against the release of any property held as security for such claim as provided in
paragraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property. 

    For
the purposes of paragraphs (B), (C) and (D), property substituted after the beginning of such three-month period for property held as security at the time of such
substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such paragraphs is
created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding any pre-existing claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as
such pre-existing claim. 

    If
the Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned among the Trustee, the Holders and the
holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee, the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities realize, as a result of payments from such special account and payments
of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any
other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account
of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the respective claims of the Trustee and the Holders and the holders of other indenture
securities dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or
any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all
sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim, the term "dividends" shall include any
distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other
applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, whether such distribution is made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with
respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such bankruptcy, receivership or proceedings for reorganization is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion
among the Trustee and the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special account and proceeds
thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to
the Trustee and the Holders and the holders of other indenture securities with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to 

42

 

appraise the value of any securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of such distributions as between the secured and
unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the provisions of this paragraph as a mathematical formula. 

    Any
Trustee which has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such three-month period shall be subject to the provisions of this Subsection as though such resignation or
removal had not occurred.
If any Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such three-month period, it shall be subject to the provisions of this Subsection if and only if the following conditions exist: 

	(i)
	the
receipt of property or reduction of claim, which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued as Trustee,
occurred after the beginning of such three-month period; and

	(ii)
	such
receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within three months after such resignation or removal. 

    (b) There
shall be excluded from the operation of Subsection (a) of this Section a creditor relationship arising from 

    (1) the
ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of one year or more at the time of
acquisition by the Trustee; 

    (2) advances
authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction or by this Indenture, for the purpose of preserving any property which shall at
any time be subject to the lien of this Indenture or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon, if notice of such advances and of the circumstances surrounding the making
thereof is given to the Holders at the time and in the manner provided in this Indenture; 

    (3) disbursements
made in the ordinary course of business in the capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying agent, fiscal
agent or depositary, or other similar capacity; 

    (4) an
indebtedness created as a result of services rendered or premises rented; or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities sold in a cash
transaction as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section; 

    (5) the
ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation organized under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, which
is directly or indirectly a creditor of the Company; or 

    (6) the
acquisition, ownership, acceptance or negotiation of any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances or obligations which fall within the classification of
self- liquidating paper as defined in Subsection (c) of this Section. 

    (c) For
the purposes of this Section only: 

    (1) The
term "default" means any failure to make payment in full of the principal of or interest on any of the Debt Securities or upon the other indenture securities
when and as such principal or interest becomes due and payable. 

    (2) The
term "other indenture securities" means securities upon which the Company is an obligor outstanding under any other indenture (i) under which the Trustee
is also trustee, (ii) which contains provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section, and (iii) under which a default exists at the time of the apportionment of the
funds and property held in such special account. 

43

 

    (3) The term "cash transaction" means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in
currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks and payable upon demand. 

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

    (5) The
term "Company" means any obligor upon the Debt Securities. 

    SECTION
614. Authenticating Agent.

    The
Trustee shall upon Company request appoint one or more authenticating agents (including, without limitation, the Company or any Affiliate thereof) with respect to one or more
series of Debt Securities which shall be authorized on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Debt Securities of such series in connection with the issue, delivery, registration of transfer,
exchange, partial redemption or repayment of such Debt Securities. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication on behalf
of the Trustee by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the Company and must be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States or of any State, having a principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, having a combined capital surplus of at least $1,000,000,
authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities or the equivalent foreign authority in the case of an authenticating agent
who is not organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof or the District of Columbia. 

    Any
corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business of an authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent. 

    An
authenticating agent may at any time resign with respect to one or more series of Debt Securities by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The
Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent with respect to one or more series of Debt Securities by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and
to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section, the Trustee promptly may appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights,
powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent herein. No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless eligible under
the provisions of this Section. 

    The
Company agrees to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, subject to the provisions of Section 607. 

    The
provisions of Sections 104, 111, 306, 309, 603, 604 and 605 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent. 

44

 

    Pursuant to each appointment made under this Section, the Debt Securities of each series covered by such appointment may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of
authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 

    This
is one of the Debt Securities, of the series designated herein, described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

    SECTION
701. Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders.

    The
Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee with respect to Debt Securities of each series for which it acts as Trustee: 

    (1) semi-annually,
not more than 15 days after the Regular Record Date in respect of the Debt Securities of such series or on June 30 and
December 31 of each year with respect to each series of Debt Securities for which there are no Regular Record Dates, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of the Holders of Registered Securities as of such Regular Record Date or June 15 or December 15, as the case may be, and 

    (2) At
such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and
content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished. 

provided, however, that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Security Registrar, no such list need
be furnished. 

    SECTION
702. Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders.

    (a) The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of Registered Securities contained in the most
recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 701 and the names and addresses of Holders of Registered Securities received by the Trustee in its capacity as Paying Agent or
Security Registrar, if so acting. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 701 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. The Trustee shall preserve for at least
two years the names and addresses of Holders of Bearer Securities filed with the Trustee pursuant to Section 703(c). 

    (b) If
three or more Holders of Debt Securities of any series (hereinafter referred to as "applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee
proof that each such applicant has owned a Debt Security for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to
communicate with other Holders of Debt Securities of such series (in which case the applicants must hold Debt Securities of such series) or with all Holders of Debt Securities with respect to their
rights under this Indenture or under the Debt 

45

 

Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business days after the receipt of
such application, at its election, either 

	(i)
	afford
such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), or

	(ii)
	inform
such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders of Debt Securities of such series or of all Debt Securities, as the case may be,
whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), and as to the approximate time of mailing to such Holders the form of
proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application. 

    If
the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail to each Holder whose name and
address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 702(a), a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request,
with reasonable promptness
after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the Trustee
shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would
be contrary to the best interests of the Holders or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a
hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of
such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail
copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender, otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty
to such applicants respecting their applications. 

    (c) Every
Holder of Debt Securities or coupons, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee
shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with Section 702(b), regardless of the source from which
such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 702(b). 

    Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such 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
conclusively rely exclusively on Officers' Certificate). 

    SECTION
703. Reports by Trustee.

46

 

    (2) the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee (as such)
which remain unpaid on the date of such report, and for the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Debt Securities of such series or any related coupons,
on any property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee, except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances so remaining unpaid aggregate not
more than 1/2% of the principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series on the date of such report; 

    (3) the
amount, interest rate and maturity date of all other indebtedness owing by the Company (or any other obligor on the Debt Securities of such series) to the
Trustee in its individual capacity, on the date of such report, with a brief description of any property held as collateral security therefor, except an indebtedness based upon a creditor relationship
arising in any manner described in Section 613(b)(2), (3), (4) or (6);

change to the property and funds, if any, physically in the possession of the Trustee as such on the date of such report;

action taken by the Trustee in the performance of its duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion materially affects the Debt
Securities, except action in respect of a default, notice of which has been or is to be withheld by the Trustee in accordance with Section 602; 

provided, however, that if the Trust Indenture Act is amended subsequent to the date hereof to eliminate
the requirement of the Trustee's brief report, the report required by this Section need not be transmitted to any Holders. 

    (b) The
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Debt Securities of any series for which it acts as the Trustee, as provided in Subsection (c) of this
Section, a brief report with respect to the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee (as such)
since the date of the last report transmitted pursuant to Subsection (a) of this Section (or if no such report has yet been so transmitted, since the date of execution of this instrument) for
the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a right or charge, prior to that of the Debt Securities of such series, on property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee, and which it has not
previously reported pursuant to this Subsection, except that the Trustee for each series shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances remaining unpaid at any time
aggregate 10% or less of the principal amount of the Debt Securities of such series Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted within 90 days after such time. 

    (c) Reports
pursuant to this Section shall be transmitted by mail: 

    (1) to
all Holders of Registered Securities, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear in the Security Register; 

    (2) to
such Holders of Bearer Securities as have, within the two years preceding such transmissions, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose;
and 

    (3) except
in the case of reports pursuant to Subsection (b) of this Section, to each Holder of a Debt Security whose name and address is preserved at the time
by the Trustee, as provided in Section 702(a). 

    (d) A
copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange upon which any Debt Securities of
such series are listed, with the 

47

 

Commission and also with the Company. The Company will notify the Trustee when any series of Debt Securities are listed on any stock exchange. 

    SECTION
704. Reports by Company.

    The
Company will: 

    (a) file

required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or, if the Company is not required to file information, documents or
reports pursuant to either of said Sections, then it will file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the
supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in respect of a security listed and registered

    (c) transmit
by mail to all Holders of Debt Securities, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 703(c) with respect to reports pursuant to
Section 703(a), within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries of any information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to
paragraphs (1) and (2) of this Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission. 

    Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such 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
conclusively rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).

affect the interests of the Holders of Debt Securities of any series or any related coupons in any material respect; or 

    (10) to
add to or change or eliminate any provision of this Indenture as shall be necessary or desirable in accordance with any amendments to the Trust Indenture Act,
provided such action shall not adversely affect the interest of Holders of the Debt Securities of any series or any appurtenant coupons in any material respect. 

    SECTION
902. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders.

    With
the consent of the Holders of not less than 662/3% in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture,
by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for
the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders under this Indenture of
such Debt Securities of such series and any related coupons; provided, however, that an indenture
supplemental hereto which changes the required ownership set forth in the definition of Controlled Subsidiary in Section 101 hereof from 80% to a majority but does not change any other
provision of this Indenture or modify in any other manner the rights of the Holders of all the Debt Securities under this Indenture may be entered into with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series; and provided, further,
that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Debt Security or coupon affected thereby, 

    (1) change
the Stated Maturity of the principal or any installment of principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Debt Security, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the interest hereon or any premium payable upon redemption or repayment thereof, or change any obligation of the Company to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 1006 (except as
contemplated by Section 801(1) and permitted by Section 901(1)), or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a
declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502, or change any Place of Payment, or the coin or currency in which any Debt Security or the interest thereon or any
coupon is payable, or impair any right to the delivery of Capital Securities in exchange for Debt Securities provided for in this Indenture or the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any
such payment or delivery on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, repayment or exchange, on or after the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Capital Exchange Date, as the
case may be); or 

50

 

    (2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental
indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (or compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in
this Indenture, or reduce the requirements of Section 1604 for quorum or voting; or 

    (3) modify
any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or Section 1007, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other
provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Debt Security affected thereby;  provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with
respect to changes in the references to "the Trustee" and concomitant changes in this Section and Section 1007, or the deletion of this provision, in accordance with the requirements of
Section 611(b) and 901(7); or 

    (4) adversely
affect the right to repayment, if any, of Debt Securities of any series at the option of the Holders thereof; or 

    (5) impair
the right of any Holder of Debt Securities of any series to receive Capital Securities on any Capital Exchange Date for Debt Securities of such series with a
Market Value equal to the principal amount of such Holder's Debt Securities of such series or in an amount sufficient to provide proceeds upon sale by the Company in the Secondary Offering equal to
the principal amount of such Holder's Debt Securities of such series; or 

    (6) impair
the right of any Holder of Convertible Securities of any series to convert such Debt Securities pursuant to Article Nineteen; 

and
provided, further, that no change shall be made in the provisions of Article Eighteen that will
affect adversely the holders of Senior Debt without the consent of the holders of all Senior Debt Outstanding. 

    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 Debt Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Debt 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 Debt Securities of any other series. 

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

    SECTION
903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

    In
executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trust created by this Indenture,
the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise. 

    SECTION
904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

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

    SECTION
905. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

51

    SECTION
906. Reference in Debt Securities to Supplemental Indenture.

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

 
 

ARTICLE TEN
  
    COVENANTS    
  

    SECTION
1001. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

    The
Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Debt Securities and any appurtenant coupons that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on the Debt Securities and any appurtenant coupons in accordance with the terms of the Debt Securities, any appurtenant coupons and this Indenture. Any interest due on Bearer
Securities on or before Maturity, other than additional amounts, if any, payable as provided in Section 1006 in respect of principal of (or premium, if any, on) such a Debt Security, shall be
payable only upon presentation and surrender of the several coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature. For all purposes of this Indenture, the exchange
of Capital Securities for Debt Securities of any series pursuant to the Indenture shall constitute full payment of principal of the Debt Securities of such series being exchanged on any Capital
Exchange Date for Debt Securities of such series, without prejudice to any Holder's rights pursuant to Section 1413. 

    SECTION
1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

    The
Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Debt Securities an office or agency where Debt Securities (but, except as otherwise provided below, unless such
Place of Payment is located outside the United States, not Bearer Securities) may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Debt Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Debt Securities and this Indenture may be served. If Debt Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the
Company will maintain, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series which is located outside the United States where Debt Securities
of such series and the related coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any additional amounts payable on Debt Securities of such series pursuant to
Section 1006); provided, however, that if the Debt Securities of such series are listed on the
Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland or the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock exchange shall so
require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent in London or Luxembourg or any other required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Debt Securities of such
series are listed on such exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company
shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall
fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby
appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and demands, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related coupons may be presented and surrendered for
payment 

52

 

(including payment of any additional amounts payable on Bearer Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1006) at the place specified for the purpose pursuant to Section 301(5). 

    No
payment of principal of, premium or interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the
United States or by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in the United States; provided,  however, payment of principal of and any premium
and interest denominated in Dollars (including additional amounts payable in respect thereof) on any
Bearer Security may be made at an office or agency of, and designated by, the Company located in the United States if (but only if) payment of the full amount of such principal, premium, interest or
additional amounts in Dollars at all offices outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange
controls or other similar restrictions and the Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel that such payment within the United States is legal. Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by
Section 301 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, at the option of the Holder of any Bearer Security or related coupon, payment may be made by check in the currency designated for such
payment pursuant to the terms of such Bearer Security presented or mailed to an address outside the United States or by transfer to an account in such currency maintained by the payee with a bank
located outside the United States. 

    The
Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of such Place of Payment) where the Debt Securities of one or more series and any
appurtenant coupons (subject to the preceding paragraph) 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
obligations to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for any series of Debt Securities, for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation and any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

    SECTION
1003. Money for Debt Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.

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

    Whenever
the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents with respect to any series of Debt Securities, it will prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or
interest on any Debt Securities of such series and any appurtenant coupons, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such
sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of
its actions or failure to so act. 

    The
Company will cause each Paying Agent with respect to any series of Debt Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will 

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

53

 

    (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities of such series or any appurtenant coupons) in the making of any
payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Debt Securities of such series or any appurtenant coupons; and 

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

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

    Any
principal and interest received on the Eligible Instruments deposited with the Trustee or any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Debt Security of any series or any
appurtenant coupon or any money on deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent representing amounts deducted from the Redemption Price or Repayment Price with respect to unmatured coupons not
presented upon redemption or exercise of the Holder's option for repayment pursuant to Section 1106 or 1303 and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Debt Security or any
coupon appertaining thereto shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such
trust money (including the principal and interest received on Eligible Instruments deposited with the Trustee), and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper of general
circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and each Place of Payment or mailed to each such Holder, or both, 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 balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 

    SECTION
1004. Officers' Certificate as to Default.

    The
Company will deliver to the Trustee, on or before a date not more than four months after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (which on the date hereof is the calendar year)
ending after the date hereof, an Officers' Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the
terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture, and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature thereof of which they may have knowledge. 

    SECTION
1005. Limitation on Disposition of Voting Stock of, and Merger and Sale of Assets by, the Bank.

    The
Company will not: 

    (1) sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Voting Stock of the Bank or permit the Bank to issue, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of its Voting
Stock, unless, after giving effect to any such transaction, the Bank remains a Controlled Subsidiary; or 

    (2) permit
the Bank to 

    (a) merge
or consolidate, unless the surviving corporation is a Controlled Subsidiary; or 

54

 

    (b) convey or transfer its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, except to a Controlled Subsidiary. 

    SECTION
1006. Payment of Additional Amounts.

    If
the Debt Securities of a series provide for the payment of additional amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Debt Security of any series or any coupon appertaining
thereto additional amounts upon the terms and subject to the conditions provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if
any) or interest on, or in respect of, any Debt Security of any series or any related coupon or the net proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Debt Security of any series, such mention shall
be deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts provided for in the terms of such Debt Securities and 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 Debt 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 Debt
Securities (or if the Debt Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal (and premium, if any) is made, and at least 10 days
prior to each date of payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers' Certificate, the
Company will furnish the Trustee and the Company's principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers' Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or
Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Debt Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Debt Securities of that series or the related
coupons who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Debt Securities of that series. If any such withholding
shall be required, then such Officers' Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Debt Securities or coupons and the Company
will pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the additional amounts, if any, required by the terms of such Debt Securities and the first paragraph of this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify
the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in
connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers' Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section. 

    SECTION
1007. Waiver of Certain Covenants.

    The
Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Section 1005, with respect to the Debt Securities of any series if, before
the time for such compliance the Holders of at least 662/3% in principal amount of the Debt Securities of such series at the time Outstanding shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so
expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force
and effect. 

    SECTION
1008. Calculation of Original Issue Discount

    If
Debt Securities of a series are issuable as Original Issue Discount Securities, the Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year (i) written
notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding Securities as of the end of such year and (ii) such other specific
information relating to such original issue 

55

 

discount as may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 

 
 

ARTICLE ELEVEN
  
    REDEMPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES    
  

    SECTION
1101. Applicability of Article.

    Debt
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

    SECTION
1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

    The
election of the Company to redeem any Debt Securities shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at
the election of the Company of less than all of the Debt Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice
shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount and the tenor and terms of the Debt Securities of any series to be redeemed. In the case
of any redemption of Debt Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Debt Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall
furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

    SECTION
1103. Selection by Trustee of Debt Securities to Be Redeemed.

    Except
as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Debt Securities of any series, if less than all the Debt Securities of any series with like tenor and terms are
to be redeemed, the particular Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Debt Securities of such
series with like tenor and terms not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions
(equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities of such series or any integral multiple thereof which is also an authorized denomination) of the principal amount of Registered
Securities or Bearer Securities (if issued in more than one authorized denomination) of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities of such
series. 

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

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

    SECTION
1104. Notice of Redemption.

    Notice
of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Debt
Securities to be redeemed. 

    All
notices of redemption shall state: 

    (1) the
Redemption Date, 

    (2) the
Redemption Price, 

56

 

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

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

    (5) the
Place or Places of Payment where such Debt Securities, together in the case of Bearer Securities with all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after
the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 

    (6) that
Bearer Securities may be surrendered for payment only at such place or places which are outside the United States, except as otherwise provided in
Section 1002, 

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

    (8) the
CUSIP number, if any. 

    A
notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 106 need not identify particular Registered Securities to be redeemed. 

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

    SECTION
1105. Deposit of Redemption Price.

    Prior
to 10:00 a.m. any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and
hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money and/or, to the extent such Debt Securities to be redeemed are denominated and payable in Dollars only, Eligible Instruments the
payments of principal and interest on which when due (and without reinvestment and providing no tax liability will be imposed upon the Trustee or the Holders of the Debt Securities to be redeemed)
will provide money on or prior to the Redemption Date in such amounts as will (together with any money irrevocably deposited in trust with the Trustee, without investment) be sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Debt Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date;  provided, however, that deposits with respect to Bearer Securities shall be made with a Pay Agent or
Paying Agents located outside the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301. 

    SECTION
1106. Debt Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

    Notice
of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Debt Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein
specified and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Debt 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 Debt Security for redemption in accordance
with said notice, such Debt Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date;  provided, however, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or
prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of coupons for such interest (at an office or agency located outside the United States except as otherwise provided
in Section 1002), and provided further, that installments of interest on Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date shall be payable to the 

57

 

Holders of such Debt Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and provisions of Section 307. 

    If
any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Bearer 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 the Trustee if
there be 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 Bearer Security shall surrender to the
Trustee or 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 without interest thereon; provided,  however, that interest
represented by coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons at an office or agency located
outside of the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002. 

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

    SECTION
1107. Debt 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, the Security Registrar or the Trustee so
requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Debt Security without service charge, a new Registered Security or
Registered Securities of the same series and of like tenor and terms, of any authorized denominations as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unredeemed portion of the principal of the Debt Security so surrendered. 

 
 

ARTICLE TWELVE
  
    SINKING FUNDS    
  

    SECTION
1201. Applicability of Article.

    The
provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Debt Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301 for Debt Securities of such series. 

    The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Debt 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 term of Debt Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment." If provided for by the terms of Debt Securities
of any series, the amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each
sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Debt Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of such series. 

    SECTION
1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Debt Securities.

    The
Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Debt Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption), together in the case of any Bearer Securities of such
series with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto, and (2) may apply as a credit Debt Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the
terms of such Debt Securities or 

58

 

through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with
respect to the Debt Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities as provided for by the terms of such series;  provided that such Debt Securities have not
been previously so credited. Such Debt Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the
Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Debt Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a
result of the delivery or credit of Debt Securities in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 1202, the principal amount of Debt Securities to be redeemed in order to exhaust the
aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Debt Securities for redemption, except upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a
Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the

ARTICLE THIRTEEN
  
    REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS    
  

    SECTION
1301. Applicability of Article.

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

    SECTION
1302. Repayment of Debt Securities.

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

    SECTION
1303. Exercise of Option; Notice.

    Each
Holder desiring to exercise such Holder's option for repayment shall, as conditions to such repayment, surrender the Debt Security to be repaid in whole or in part together with
written notice of the exercise of such option at any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, not less than 

59

 

30 nor more than 45 days prior to the Repayment Date; provided, however, that surrender of Bearer
Securities together with written notice of exercise of such option shall be made at an office or agency located outside the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002. Such
notice, which shall be irrevocable, shall specify the principal amount of such Debt Security to be repaid, which shall be equal to the minimum authorized denomination for such Debt Security or an
integral multiple thereof, and shall identify the Debt Security to be repaid and, in the case of a partial repayment of the Debt
Security, shall specify the denomination or denominations of the Debt Security or Debt Securities of the same series to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal of the Debt Security
surrendered which is not to be repaid. 

    If
any Bearer Security surrendered for repayment shall not be accompanied by all unmatured coupons and all matured coupons in default, such Bearer Security may be paid after deducting
from the Repayment 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 the Trustee if there be
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 Bearer Security shall surrender to the Trustee or
any Paying Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Repayment Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted without interest
thereon; 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 1002. 

    The
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without service charge to the Holder of any Registered Security so surrendered a new Registered Security or
Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination specified in the foregoing notice, in an aggregate principal amount equal to any portion of the principal of the Registered Security so
surrendered which is not to be repaid. 

    The
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver without service charge to the Holder of any Bearer Security so surrendered a new Registered Security or
Securities or new Bearer Security or Securities (and all appurtenant unmatured coupons and matured coupons in default) or any combination thereof of the same series of any authorized denomination or
denominations specified in the foregoing notice, in an aggregate principal amount equal to any portion of the principal of the Debt Security so surrendered which is not to be paid;  provided,
however, that the issuance of a Registered Security therefor shall be subject to applicable
laws and regulations, including provisions of the United States federal income tax laws and regulations in effect at the time of the exchange; neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Security
Registrar shall issue Registered Securities for Bearer Securities if it has received an Opinion of Counsel that as a result of such issuance the Company would suffer adverse consequences under the
United States federal income tax laws then in effect and the Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Order directing the Trustee not to make such issuances thereafter unless and until the
Trustee receives a subsequent Company Order to the contrary. The Company shall deliver copies of such Company Order to the Security Registrar. 

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

Repayment Date to designate one or more Remarketing Entities to purchase, at a price equal to the Repayment Price, Debt Securities of such series from the Holders thereof who give notice and surrender
their Debt Securities in accordance with Section 1303. 

60

 

    SECTION 1305. Debt Securities Payable on the Repayment Date.

    Notice
of exercise of the option of repayment having been given and the Debt Securities so to be repaid having been surrendered as aforesaid, such Debt Securities shall, unless
purchased in accordance with Section 1304, on the Repayment Date become due and payable at the price therein specified and from and after the Repayment Date such Debt Securities shall cease to
bear interest and shall be paid on the Repayment Date, and the coupons for such interest appertaining to Bearer Securities so to be repaid, except to the extent provided above, shall be void, unless
the Company shall default in the payment of such price, in which case the Company shall continue to be obligated for the principal amount of such Debt Securities and shall be obligated to pay interest
on such principal amount at the rate borne by such Debt Securities from time to time until payment in full of such principal amount.

    SECTION
1405. Rights and Duties of Holders of Debt Securities to be Exchanged for Capital Securities.

63

 

    (a) Subject to Section 503, and without prejudice to the rights pursuant to Section 1413 of Holders of Debt Securities of any series to be exchanged, no
Holder of Debt Securities of such series shall be entitled to receive any cash from the Company on any Capital Exchange Date or at the Stated Maturity of any Debt Security of such series except from
the proceeds of the sale of such Holder's Capital Securities in the related Secondary Offering and except as provided herein with respect to fractional Capital Securities, amounts equal to expenses of
the sale in the related Secondary Offering of such Capital Securities, accrued and unpaid interest and acceleration upon an Event of Default. In the event

to Section 1413. 

    (b) Each
Holder for whom Capital Securities are being offered in the Secondary Offering shall be deemed to have appointed the Company its
attorney-in-fact to execute any and all documents and agreements the Company deems necessary or appropriate to effect such Secondary Offering. 

    (c) Unless
advised to the contrary in writing within 30 days following the date of the notice described in Section 1404(a) by any Holder for whom Capital
Securities are being offered in the Secondary Offering, the Company shall assume for the purposes of any Secondary Offering that the Capital Securities are to be offered for the account of such
Holder, that such Holder has not held any position, office or other material relationship with the Company within three years preceding the Secondary Offering, that such Holder owns no other Capital
Securities, and that after completion of the Secondary Offering such Holder will own less than one percent of the class of such Capital Securities. 

    (d) Each
Holder for whom Capital Securities are being offered in the Secondary Offering agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, any other Holder, and any
underwriter, agent or other similar person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities resulting from or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any notice of exchange, any offering memorandum or selling document or registration statement relating to the Secondary Offering, any preliminary prospectus or prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or resulting from or based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission is made therein (i) in reliance upon and in conformity
with any written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any such Holder specifically for use in connection with the preparation thereof or (ii) because of such Holder's failure
to advise the Company in writing that any of the assumptions described in Section 1404(a)(7)(A) and Subsection (c) of this Section is incorrect; 

    (e) In
order for any Holder who has duly returned a Capital Security Election Form to receive Capital Securities on any Capital Exchange Date for any Debt Security of
any series, (1) the Holder of any Registered Security to be exchanged shall surrender such Debt Security (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 of any Registered Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing), to the Capital Exchange
Agent on the Capital Exchange Date, and (2) the Holder of any Bearer Security to be exchanged shall surrender such Debt Security and all unmatured coupons and all matured coupons in default
with the Capital Security Election Form at a Place of Capital Exchange outside the United States designated pursuant to Section 1404(a)(8) except as otherwise provided in Section 1002.
If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such Debt Security or coupons, the surrender of such Debt Security or coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee, if there be
furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Capital Exchange Agent harmless in respect of such Debt Security or 

64

 

coupons. Except as provided in Section 307, no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any exchange on account of any interest accrued on any Debt Securities surrendered for exchange or on
account of any dividends or interest on the Capital Securities issued upon exchange. 

    (f)  Debt
Securities of any series to be exchanged shall be deemed to have been exchanged on the Capital Exchange Date therefor in accordance with the foregoing
provision, and at such time the rights of the Holders of such Debt Securities as Holder shall cease (subject to the provisions of Section 307 and without prejudice to the rights of Holders of
Debt Securities of such series pursuant to Section 1413), and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the Capital Securities issuable upon such exchange shall be treated for all purposes as
the record holder or holders of such Capital Securities at such time.

    Notice

payable at the Capital Exchange Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Capital Exchange Price and accrued interest) Debt
Securities of such series to be
exchanged shall cease to bear interest and the coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be exchanged, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of
any Debt Security of such series for exchange in accordance with said notice, such Debt Security shall be paid by the Company at the Capital Exchange Price, together with accrued interest to the
Capital Exchange Date; provided, however, that if such Capital Exchange Date is an Interest Payment
Date, the interest payable on such date shall be paid to the Holder of Debt Securities of such series according to the terms of the Debt Securities of such series and the provisions of
Section 307; and provided further, that exchanges of Bearer Securities shall be made only and installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Capital
Exchange Date shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002 and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 301, only upon presentation and surrender of those Bearer Securities and coupons. 

    If
any Bearer Security surrendered for exchange shall not be accompanied by all unmatured coupons and all matured coupons in default such Bearer Security may be paid after deducting
from the Capital Exchange Price an amount equal to the face amount of all missing coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished
to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Capital Exchange Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Bearer Security shall surrender to the Trustee or
Capital 

65

 

Exchange Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Capital Exchange Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided,
however, that interest on Bearer Securities shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside of the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002. 

    If
any Debt Security of any series called for exchange shall not be so paid or exchanged upon surrender thereof for exchange, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from such
Capital Exchange Date at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Debt Security; provided, however,
that in the case of Bearer Securities, any such principal and interest thereon shall be paid at an office or agency located outside the United States except as otherwise provided in
Section 1002. 

    Any
Registered Security which is to be exchanged only in part shall be surrendered as provided herein (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 or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute, the Trustee
shall authenticate and there shall be delivered to the Holder of such Debt Security without service charge a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination or
denominations as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unexchanged portion of principal of the Debt Security so surrendered.

Bearer Security which is to be exchanged only in part shall be surrendered as provided herein and the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and there shall be
delivered to the Holder of such Debt Security without service charge a new Registered Security or Securities or new Bearer Security or Securities (and all appurtenant unmatured coupons and coupons in
default) or any combination thereof of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the
unexchanged portion of principal of the Debt Security so surrendered; provided, however, the issuance of
a Registered Security therefor shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations, including provisions of the United States federal income tax laws and regulations in effect at the time of the
exchange; neither the Company, the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall issue Registered Securities in exchange for Bearer Securities if it has received an Opinion of Counsel that as a result of
such exchanges the Company would suffer adverse consequences under the United States federal income tax laws then in effect and the Company has delivered to the Trustee a Company Order directing the
Trustee not to make such exchanges thereafter unless and until the Company delivers to the Trustee a subsequent Company Order to the contrary. The Company shall deliver copies of such Company Orders
to the Security Registrar.

which the Company shall have been merged or the corporation with shall have acquired such assets of the Company, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture
providing that the Holder of each Debt Security then Outstanding shall have the right thereafter to receive securities of such successor on the Capital Exchange Date for such Debt Security with a
Market Value equal to the principal amount of such Debtor Security. The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, conveyances or transfers. 

    SECTION
1415. Responsibility of Trustee.

    The
Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Debt Securities of any series to be exchanged to determine the Market Value of any Capital
Securities delivered in exchange for Debt Securities of such series and may rely on and shall be entitled to receive prior to any Capital Exchange Date for Debt Securities of such series an Officers'
Certificate of the Company as to the Market Value of the Capital Securities being exchanged for the Debt Securities of such series
and the amount of Capital Securities being exchanged for each $1,000 principal amount of Debt Securities of such series or the minimum denomination of such series, if larger, and that such Capital
Securities qualify as Capital Securities under the definition thereof contained herein. The Trust shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Capital
Securities which may at any time be issued or delivered in exchange for any Debt Security; and the Trustee does not make any representation with respect thereto. The Trustee shall not be responsible
for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any Capital Securities or Capital Security certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Debt Security for the
purpose of exchange or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article. 

    SECTION
1416. Revocation of Obligation to Exchange Capital Securities for Debt Securities.

    The
Company's obligation to exchange Capital Securities for Debt Securities of any series as provided in Section 1402 is absolute and unconditional; provided, however, that
such obligation may be revoked at the option of the Company at any time on not less than 60 days' prior notice given in the 

68

 

manner provided in Section 106 to the Holders of Debt Securities of such series, the Trustee and the Capital Exchange Agent, if the Company shall determine that under then regulations of the
Company's Primary Federal Regulator either the Debt Securities are no longer includable as capital or it is no longer necessary for the Company to be obligated to exchange Capital Securities for Debt
Securities in order for the Debt Securities to maintain the same capital treatment as they are then receiving under such regulations or if approval of the Primary Federal Regulator is obtained for
such revocation. 

    In
the event such obligation is revoked 

    (a) the
Company will pay the Debt Securities of such series in cash at 100% of the principal amount thereof on the Stated Maturity thereof, and 

    (b) the
Company may, at any time on or after a date selected by the Company, on not less than 60 days' prior notice given in the manner provided in
Section 106 to the Holders of Debt Securities of such series and the Trustee, redeem the Debt Securities of such series, in whole or in part, for cash at 100% of the principal amount thereof,
plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date. 

    SECTION
1417. Optional Securities Funds.

    (a) (1)
With respect to Debt Securities of any series for which an Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 301 provides that the Debt
Securities of such series are exchangeable for Capital Securities, the Company may elect to establish a fund (referred to herein as the "Optional Securities Funds") to which funds may at any time be
designated by the Company as provided in Section 1502 as if such Optional Securities Funds were Securities Funds (as defined in Article Fifteen) to be used to pay the principal of the Debt
Securities of such series. 

    (2) Notwithstanding
any provisions to the contrary contained in this Indenture or in the Debt Securities of any series, neither funds designated as Optional Securities
Funds nor any other property from time to time held as Optional Securities Funds shall be deemed to be for any purpose property of the Holders or trust funds for the benefit of the Holders, and the
Optional Securities Funds shall not constitute security for the payment of the Debt Securities. 

    (b) In
lieu of, or in addition to, any exchange of Capital Securities for Debt Securities of any series which may be made in accordance with the provisions of Sections
1402 and 1403, the Company may elect to redeem the Debt Securities of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1106 and the terms of the Debt Securities of each series, in whole
or in part, by paying the principal of such Debt Securities with funds designated as Optional Securities Funds at a price equal to the percentage of the principal amount established in the terms of
the Debt Securities of such series on the Redemption Date of the Debt Securities to be so redeemed, and (except if such Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) by paying accrued interest on
such Debt Securities. If such Redemption Date is an Interest Payment Date, the interest payable on such date shall be paid to the Holder of Debt Securities of such series according to the terms of the
Debt Securities of such series and the provisions of Section 307. 

    (c) The
Company shall give notice of such proposed redemption in the manner provided in Section 106 to the Holders of the Debt Securities of such series within
the time prescribed for the giving of the initial notice in Section 1402 or 1403, depending upon the Redemption Date selected by the Company. Such notice shall state the Redemption Date and the
place or places where the Debt Securities of the series to be paid are to be surrendered for payment; provided,  however, if such redemption is of less than
all of the Debt Securities of such series and is to be made on a Capital Exchange Date specified in
accordance with Section 1402 or 1403, then such notice may be incorporated into any initial notice of such Capital Exchange Date and provided
that no notice of any redemption may be given unless there are sufficient Optional Securities Funds to pay the principal amount of the Debt Securities to be redeemed. 

69

 

    (d) If less than all the Debt Securities of any series are to be so redeemed, then Sections 1404(c) and 1408 shall apply to the redemption in the same manner as if such
Debt Securities were to be exchanged for Capital Securities. 

    (e) Funds
designated as Optional Securities Funds shall be released from such designation under the circumstances described in Section 1503.

    SECTION 1501. Creation of Securities Funds.

    A
fund (the "Securities Funds") will be established when specified in an Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 1502, to be used to pay the
principal of the Debt Securities of that series. 

    Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained in this Indenture or in the Debt Securities of any series, neither funds designated as Securities Funds nor any other property
from time to time held as Securities Funds shall be deemed to be for any purpose property of the Holders or trust funds for the benefit of the Holders, and the Securities Funds shall not constitute
security for the payment of the Debt Securities. 

    SECTION
1502. Designations of Securities Funds.

    The
Securities Funds will consist of amounts equal to (i) the net proceeds of the sale of Capital Securities for cash from time to time after the date of initial issuance of
the Debt Securities of any series for which funds may be designated by the Company as provided in this Section, and (ii) the market value, as determined by the Company, of Capital Securities
sold from time to time after the date of initial issuance of the Debt Securities of such series in exchange for other property, less the expenses to effect any such exchanges, and (iii) other
funds which the regulations of the Primary Federal Regulator then permit for the payment of principal of "mandatory convertible securities (equity commitment notes or equity contract notes)" as
defined in such regulations; provided that (x) the Company has designated such amounts as Securities Funds on its books and records in the manner
required by the Primary Federal Regulator, and (y) there shall be deducted from the Securities Funds an amount equal to the amount of any funds used to redeem or repay the Debt Securities of
such series for which Securities Funds are required to be designated or any similar securities. 

    SECTION
1503. Covenant of the Company to Obtain Securities Funds.

    Notwithstanding
anything else contained herein, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that with regard to the Debt Securities of any series which by its terms require the
designation of Securities Funds (i) by the Interest Payment Date which occurs on or next preceding the date when one-third of the period from the date of issuance of the Debt
Securities of such series to their Stated Maturity has elapsed, it will have obtained Securities Funds in an amount that will equal at least one-third of the original aggregate principal
amount of the Debt Securities of such series (or such lesser amount as the Primary Federal Regulator may permit from time to time) and will have prepared and delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate to the foregoing effect, (ii) by the Interest Payment Date which occurs on or next preceding the date when two-thirds of the period from the date of issuance of the Debt
Securities of such series to their Stated Maturity has elapsed, it will have obtained Securities Funds in the amount that will equal at least two-thirds of the original aggregate principal
amount of the Debt Securities of such series (or such lesser amount as the Primary Federal Regulator may permit from time to time) and will have prepared and delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate to the foregoing effect, and (iii) by 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of the Debt Securities of such series, it will have obtained Securities Funds in an amount that
will equal not less than the original aggregate 

70

 

principal amount of the Debt Securities of such series (or such lesser amount as the Primary Federal Regulator may permit from time to time) and will have prepared and delivered to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate to the foregoing effect; provided, however, that such covenant and agreement of the Company shall be canceled, and amounts therefore designated as Securities Funds will be
released from such designation in the event and to the extent that the Company shall determine that under then regulations of the Company's Primary Federal Regulator either the Debt Securities are no
longer includable as capital or it is no longer necessary for the Company to be obligated to pay the principal of the Debt Securities out of Securities Funds in order for the Debt Securities to
maintain the same capital treatment as they are then receiving under such regulations, in the event and to the extent that approval of the Primary Federal Regulator is obtained for such cancellation
and release or in the event and to the extent that the Company shall have exchanged or redeemed such Debt Securities pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities of such series from a source other
than amounts designated as Securities Funds.

ARTICLE EIGHTEEN
  
    SUBORDINATION OF DEBT SECURITIES    
  

    SECTION 1801. Debt Securities Subordinate to Senior Debt.

    The
Company covenants and agrees that anything in this Indenture or the Debt Securities of any series to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt
Securities of each series and any coupons appurtenant thereto is subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Senior Debt to the extent provided herein, and each Holder of Debt Securities of each
series and coupons appurtenant thereto, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees to the subordination herein provided and shall be bound by the provisions hereof. Senior Debt
shall continue to be Senior Debt and entitled to the benefits of these subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any term of the Senior Debt or extension or
renewal of the Senior Debt. 

    In
the event that the Company shall default in the payment of any principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior Debt when the same become due and payable, whether at
maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such default to the Company by the Holders of Senior Debt or any trustee
therefor, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or
otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any of the Debt Securities, or in respect of any redemption, repayment, retirement,
purchase or other acquisition of any of the Debt Securities. 

    In
the event of 

    (a) any
insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition or other similar proceeding relating to the Company, its creditors
or its property, 

    (b) any
proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company, voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings, 

    (c) any
assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors, or 

    (d) any
other marshalling of the assets of the Company, 

all
Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or
other property, shall be made to any Holder of any of the Debt Securities or coupons appurtenant thereto on account thereof. Any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property
(other than securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these
subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt Securities, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof
under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), which would otherwise (but for these subordination provisions) be payable or deliverable in respect of the Debt Securities of any series or
coupons appurtenant thereto shall be paid or delivered directly to the Holders of Senior Debt in accordance with the priorities then existing among such Holders until all Senior Debt (including any
interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall have been paid in full. In the event of any such proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to
Senior Debt, the Holders of the Debt Securities and coupons appurtenant thereto, together with the Holders of any obligations of the Company ranking on a parity with the Debt Securities, shall be
entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debt Securities and such
other obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property or otherwise, shall be 

75

 

made on account of any capital stock or any obligations of the Company ranking junior to the Debt Securities and such other obligations. 

    In
the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of
the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions
with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt Securities, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of
reorganization or readjustment), shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder in contravention of any of the terms hereof such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the
benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior Debt at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for
application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Debt in full. In the event of the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to endorse or
assign any such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same. 

    No
present or future holder of any Senior Debt shall be prejudiced in the right to enforce subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt Securities by any act or failure to
act on the part of the Company. Nothing contained herein shall impair, as between the Company and the Holders of Debt Securities of each series, the obligation of the Company to pay to such Holders
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest upon such Debt Securities and coupons appurtenant thereto or prevent the Trustee or the Holder from exercising all rights, powers and remedies
otherwise permitted by applicable law or hereunder upon a default or Event of Default hereunder, all subject to the rights
of the holders of the Senior Debt to receive cash, securities or other property otherwise payable or deliverable to the Holders. 

    Senior
Debt shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holders thereof shall have received cash, securities or other property equal to the amount of such Senior Debt
then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the Holders of Debt Securities of each series and coupons appurtenant thereto, if any, shall be subrogated to all rights of any holders
of Senior Debt to receive any further payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt until the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt Securities of such series and coupons appertaining thereto,
if any, shall have been paid in full, and such payments or distributions received by such Holders, by reason of such subrogation, of cash, securities or other property which otherwise would be paid or
distributed to the holders of Senior Debt, shall, as between the Company and its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, on the one hand, and such Holders, on the other hand, be deemed to be
a payment by the Company on account of Senior Debt, and not on account of the Debt Securities of such series. 

    The
Trustee and Holders will take action (including, without limitation, the delivery of this Indenture to an agent for the holders of Senior Debt or consent to the filing of a
financing statement with respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of counsel designated by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Debt at the time outstanding, be necessary or
appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination effected by these provisions. 

    The
provisions of this Section 1801 shall not impair any rights, interests, remedies or powers of any secured creditor of the Company in respect of any security interest the
creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture. 

    The
securing of any obligations of the Company, otherwise ranking on a parity with the Debt Securities or ranking junior to the Debt Securities, shall not be deemed to prevent such
obligations from constituting, respectively, obligations ranking on a parity with the Debt Securities or ranking junior to the Debt Securities. 

76

 

    SECTION 1802. Trustee and Holders of Debt Securities May Rely on Certificate of Liquidating Agent; Trustee May Require Further Evidence as to Ownership of
Senior Debt; Trustee Not Fiduciary to Holders of Senior Debt.

    Upon
any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Eighteen, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon an order or decree made by
any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization or
arrangement proceedings are pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered
to the Trustee or to the Holders, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the
amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Eighteen. In the absence of any such bankruptcy trustee,
receiver, assignee or other Person, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon a written notice by a Person representing himself or herself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee or
representative on behalf of such holder) as evidence that such Person is a holder of such Senior Debt (or is such a trustee or representative). In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith,
that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as holder of Senior Debt to participate in any payments or distributions pursuant to this Article Eighteen, the Trustee may
request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, as to the extent to which such Person is entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article Eighteen, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may offer any
payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive payment. The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
Debt. 

    SECTION
1803. Payment Permitted if No Default.

    Nothing
contained in this Article Eighteen or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Debt Securities, shall prevent (a) the Company at any time, except during the
pendency of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings referred to in, or under the conditions described in, Section 1801, from making payments of the principal of
(or premium, if any) or interest on the Debt Securities or (b) the application by the Trustee or any Paying Agent of any moneys deposited with it hereunder to payments of the principal of or
interest on the Debt Securities, if, at the time of such deposit, the Trustee or such Paying Agent, as the case may be, did not have the written notice provided for in Section 1804 of any event
prohibiting the making of such deposit, or if, at the time of such deposit (whether or not in trust) by the Company with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company) such payment would not
have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article, and the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary received by it on or after such date. 

    SECTION
1804. Trustee Not Charged with Knowledge of Prohibition.

    Anything
in this Article Eighteen or elsewhere in this Indenture contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the
existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of money to or by the Trustee and shall be entitled conclusively to assume that no such facts exist and that no event specified in
Section 1801 has happened, until the Trustee shall have received an Officers' Certificate to that effect or notice in writing to that effect signed by or on behalf of the holder or holders or
their representatives, of Senior Debt who shall have been certified by the Company or otherwise established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee to be such holder or holders or
representatives or from any trustee under the indenture pursuant to which such Senior Debt shall be outstanding. The Company shall give prompt 

77

 

written notice to the Trustee and to the Paying Agent of any facts which would prohibit the payment of money to or by the Trustee or any Paying Agent. 

    SECTION
1805. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

    Each
Holder of Debt Securities or coupons by such Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee in such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination as between such Holder and holders of Senior Debt as provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any
and all such purposes. 

    SECTION
1806. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt.

    The
Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Debt which may at the time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder
of Senior Debt, provided that nothing in this Article shall deprive the Trustee of any rights as such holder and provided
furtherthat nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 607. 

    SECTION
1807. Article Applicable to Paying Agents.

    In
case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as used in this Article shall in
such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if the Paying Agent were
named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Sections 1804
and 1806 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if the Company or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. 

    SECTION
1808. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of the Company or Holders of Senior Debt.

    No
right of any present or future holders of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or
failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any
noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provision and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of
Senior Debt may, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, change the manner, place or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter any such
Senior Debt, or amend or supplement any instrument pursuant to which any such Senior Debt is issued or by which it may be secured, or release any security therefor, or exercise or refrain from
exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Debt including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, all without notice to or assent from the Holders of the Debt Securities or
the Trustee and without affecting the obligations of the Company, the Trustee or the Holders of the Debt Securities under this Article. 

 
 

ARTICLE NINETEEN
  
    CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES    
  

    SECTION 1901. Applicability of Article.

    If
an Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 301 provides that the Debt Securities of a series shall be Convertible Securities, Debt Securities of
such series shall be convertible in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified in such Officers' Certificate or supplemental indenture) in accordance with this Article. 

    SECTION
1902. Right to Convert.

78

 

    Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article, the Holder of any Convertible Security shall have the right, at such Holder's option, at any time prior to the
close of business on the date set forth in the Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 301 hereof (or if such Convertible Security is called for redemption or submitted for
repayment, then in respect of such Convertible Security to and including but not after the close of business on the Redemption or Repayment Date, as the case may be, unless the Company shall default
in the payment due) to convert the principal amount of any such Convertible Security, or, in the case of any Convertible Security of a denomination greater than $1,000, any portion of such principal
which is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (as such shares shall then be constituted) obtained by dividing the principal
amount of the Convertible Security or portion thereof surrendered for conversion by the Conversion Price, by surrender of the Convertible Security so to be converted in whole or in part in the manner
provided in Section 1903. Such conversion shall be effected by the Company. 

    SECTION
1903. Exercise of Conversion Privilege; Delivery of Common Stock on Conversion; No Adjustment for Interest or Dividends.

    In
order to exercise the conversion privilege, the Holder of any Convertible Security to be converted in whole or in part shall surrender such Convertible Security at an office or
agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 1002, accompanied by the funds, if any, required by the last paragraph of this Section, together with written notice of conversion in the
form provided on the Convertible Securities, that the Holder elects to convert such Convertible Security or the portion thereof specified in said notice. Such notice shall also state the name or names
(with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock which shall be deliverable on such conversion shall be registered, and shall be accompanied by transfer taxes, if
required pursuant to Section 1908. Each Convertible Security surrendered for conversion shall, unless the shares deliverable on conversion are to be registered in the same name as the
registration of such Convertible Security, be duly endorsed by, or accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or such Holder's duly
authorized attorney. 

    As
promptly as practicable after the surrender of such Convertible Security and the receipt of such notice and funds, if any, as aforesaid, the Company shall deliver at such office or
agency to such Holder, or on such Holder's written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares deliverable upon the conversion of such Convertible Security or portion thereof in
accordance with the provisions of this Article and a check or cash in respect of any factional interest in respect of a share of Common Stock arising upon such conversion as provided in
Section 1904. In case any Convertible Security of a denomination greater than $1,000 shall be surrendered for partial conversion and subject to Section 302, the Company shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Convertible Security so surrendered, without charge to such Holder, a new Convertible Security or
Convertible Securities in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Convertible Security. 

    Each
conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date on which such Convertible Security shall have been surrendered (accompanied by the funds, if any, required by the
last paragraph of this Section) and such notice shall have been received by the Company, as aforesaid, and the person in whose name any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be
registrable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become on said date the holder of record of the shares represented thereby; provided, however, that any such surrender on any date when the
stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall constitute the person in whose name the certificates are to be registered as the record holder thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding
day on which stock transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date upon which such Convertible Security shall have been surrendered. 

79

 

    Any Convertible Security or portion thereof surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on the Regular Record Date for any Interest Payment Date shall
(unless such Convertible Security or portion thereof being converted shall have been called for redemption or submitted for repayment on a date in such period) be accompanied by payment, in legal
tender or other funds acceptable to the Company, of an amount equal to the interest otherwise payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount being converted;  provided, however, that no such payment need be made if there shall exist at the time of conversion a
default on the payment of interest on the Convertible Securities. An amount equal to such payment shall be paid by the Company on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Convertible Security
on such Regular Record Date, provided, however, that if the Company shall default in the payment of interest on such Interest Payment Date, such amount shall be paid to the person who made such
required payment. Except as provided above in this Section, no adjustment shall be made for interest accrued on any Convertible Security converted or for dividends on any shares issued upon the
conversion of such Convertible Security as provided in this Article. 

    SECTION
1904. Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares.

    No
fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares shall be delivered upon conversion of Convertible Securities. If more than one Convertible Security shall
be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be deliverable upon conversion shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of
the Convertible Securities (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. If any fractional share of stock would be deliverable upon the conversion of any Convertible
Security or Convertible Securities, the Company shall make an adjustment therefor in cash at the current market value of such fractional share of stock. The market value of a share of Common Stock
shall be the Closing Price on the Business day immediately preceding the day on which the Convertible Securities (or specified portions thereof) are deemed to have been converted. 

    SECTION
1905. Conversion Price.

    The
Conversion Price shall be as specified in the form of Convertible Security hereinafter set forth, subject to adjustment as provided in this Article. 

    SECTION
1906. Adjustment to Conversion Price.

    The
Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows: 

    (a) In
case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution on the Common Stock in shares of its capital stock (whether shares of Common Stock or of
capital stock of any other class), (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of securities (including
Common Stock), or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of securities (including Common Stock), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto
shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Convertible Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of capital stock of the Company which such
Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such Convertible Security been converted immediately prior to the happening of
such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after
the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination. If, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a), the Holder of any Convertible Security thereafter surrendered for
conversion shall become entitled to receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (whose determination shall be conclusive and shall be
described in a written statement filed with the Trustee and any conversion agent) shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Conversion Price between or among shares of such classes of capital
stock. 

80

 

    In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) of this Section 1906, the Holder of any Convertible Security thereafter
converted shall become entitled to receive any shares or other securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares so received upon conversion of
any Convertible Security shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in any manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the shares of Common Stock
contained in this Section 1906, and other provisions of this Article Nineteen with respect to the shares of Common Stock shall apply on like terms to any such other shares or other securities. 

    (b) In
case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights or warrants to all holders of its Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock)
entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at a price per share (or a conversion price per share)less than the
current market price per share of Common Stock (as defined in subsection (d) below) at such record date, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the
same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (or the aggregate initial conversion price of the
convertible securities so offered) would purchase at such current market price, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the
number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered are initially convertible). Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such a record is fixed, and shall become effective immediately after such record date. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or
purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such current market price, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration determined
by the Board of Directors of the Company. Common Stock owned by or held for the account of the Company or any majority owned subsidiary shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any
adjustment required under this subsection (b). 

    (c) In
case the Company shall fix a record date for making a distribution to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding regular
quarterly or other periodic or recurrent cash dividends or distributions paid from retained earnings of the Company or dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) above) or rights
or warrants to subscribe or purchase (excluding those referred to in subsection (b) above), then in each case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price
determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (as defined in
subsection (d) below) of the Common Stock on such record date less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company whose determination shall be conclusive,
and described in a certificate filed with the Trustee) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common Stock,
and the denominator shall be the current market price per share (as defined in subsection (d) below) of the Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made successively when ever such a record date
is fixed and shall become effective immediately after such record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company shall distribute any rights or warrants to acquire capital stock
("Rights") pursuant to this subsection (c), the distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights subsequent to their initial distribution (whether or not such distribution shall have
occurred prior to the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities) shall be deemed to be the distribution of such Rights for purposes of this subsection (c); provided that the Company may, in
lieu of making any adjustment pursuant to this subsection (c) upon a distribution of separate certificates representing such Rights, make proper provision so that each Holder of such
Convertible Security who converts such Convertible Security (or any portion thereof) (i) before the record date for 

81

 

such distribution of separate certificates shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion shares of Common Stock issued with Rights and (ii) after such record date and prior to the
expiration, redemption or termination of such Rights shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the same number of such
Rights as would a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that such Convertible Security so converted would have entitled the holder thereof to purchase in accordance with the terms and
provisions of and applicable to the Rights if such Convertible Security were converted immediately prior to the record date for such distribution. Common Stock owned by or held for the account of the
Company or any majority owned subsidiary shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any adjustment required under this subsection (c). 

    (d) For
the purpose of any computation under subsection (b) and (c) above, the current market price per share of Common Stock at any date shall be deemed
to be the average of the daily Closing Prices for the thirty days (which are not legal holidays as defined in Section 113) commencing forty-five days (which are not legal holidays
as defined in Section 113) before the day in question. The Closing Price for any day shall be (i) if the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading on any national securities
exchange or the National Market System of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ"), the last sale price (regular way), or the average of the
closing bid and ask prices if no sale occurred, of Common Stock on the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, (ii) if not listed as described in (i), the mean
between the closing high bid and low asked quotations of Common Stock on NASDAQ, or any similar system or automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices then in common use, if so quoted,
or (iii) if not quoted
as described in clause (ii), the mean between the high bid and low asked quotations for Common Stock as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated if at least two securities dealers
have inserted both bid and asked quotations for Common Stock on at least 5 of the 10 preceding days. If none of the conditions set forth above is met, the Closing Price of Common Stock on any day or
the average of such Closing Prices for any period shall be the fair market value of Common Stock as determined by a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. selected by the Company. 

    (e) (i)
No adjustment in the Conversion price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided,
however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subsection (e)(i) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment;  further provided,
however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subsection (e)(i) are not otherwise required to be made shall be made no
later than 3 years after the date on which occurs an event that requires an adjustment to be made or carried forward. 

	(ii)
	All
calculations under this Article Nineteen shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one- hundredth of a share, as the case
may be. Anything in this Section 1906 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this
Section 1906, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividends, subdivision of shares, distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities, or
distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its shareholders shall not be taxable. 

    (f)  Whenever
the Conversion Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any conversion agent other than the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Promptly after delivery of such certificate,
the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the date on which such adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such
notice of such adjustment of the 

82

 

Conversion Price to the Holder of each Convertible Security at such Holder's last address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 305 of this Indenture. 

    (g) In
any case in which this Section 1906 provides that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer
until the occurrence of such event (i) delivering to the Holder of any Convertible Security converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Stock deliverable upon such conversion before giving effect to such
adjustment and (ii) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to Section 1904, provided,  however, that the
Company shall deliver to such Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder's rights to receive such
additional shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event
requiring such adjustment. If such event does not occur, no adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 1906. 

    SECTION
1907. Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

    If
any of the following events occur, namely (i) any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of the Convertible Securities
(other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change in the shares of
Common Stock into two or more classes or series of securities), (ii) any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is
the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or
as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding shares of its Common Stock) or (iii) any sale or conveyance of the properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an
entirety to any other corporation; then the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (which shall conform to the
Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of execution of such supplemental indenture and comply with the provisions of Article Nine) providing that each Convertible Security shall be convertible
into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property, including cash, receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of a
number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of such Convertible Securities immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Such
supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article. The Company shall cause notice of the
execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder of Convertible Securities, at his address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 305 of this Indenture. 

    The
above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, consolidations, mergers and sales. 

    SECTION
1908. Taxes on Shares Issued.

    The
delivery of stock certificates on conversions of Convertible Securities shall be made without charge to the Holder converting a Convertible Security for any tax in respect of the
issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the delivery of stock registered in any name other than of the
Holder of any Convertible Security converted, and the Company shall not be required to deliver any such stock certificate unless and until the person or persons requesting the delivery thereof shall
have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. 

83

 

    SECTION 1909. Shares to be Fully Paid; Compliance with Governmental Requirements; Listing of Common Stock.

    The
Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which may be delivered upon conversion of Convertible Securities will upon delivery be fully paid and nonassessable by the
Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. 

    The
Company covenants that if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Convertible Securities hereunder require registration with or approval of any
governmental authority under any Federal or state law before such shares may be validly delivered upon conversion, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure
such registration or approval, as the case may be. 

    The
Company further covenants that it will, if permitted by the rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., qualify for trading on NASDAQ, upon official
notice of issuance, all Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of the Convertible Securities. 

    SECTION
1910. Responsibility of Trustee.

    Neither
the Trustee nor any authenticating agent nor any conversion agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Convertible Securities to determine
whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or
herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. Neither the Trustee nor any authenticating agent nor any conversion agent shall be accountable with respect to the
validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be delivered upon the conversion of any Convertible Security; and
neither the Trustee nor any authenticating agent nor any conversion agent makes any representation with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 601, neither the Trustee nor any
authenticating agent nor any conversion agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash
upon the surrender of any Convertible Security for the purpose of conversion or for any failure of the Company to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article. 

    SECTION
1911. Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions.

    In
case: 

    (a) the
Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Stock (other than in cash out of its current or retained earnings); or 

    (b) the
Company shall authorize the granting to the holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any share of any class or any other
rights or warrants; or 

    (c) of
any reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Stock, or a change in par value, or from
par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value) or, of any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Corporation is
required or for the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or 

    (d) of
the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and the Company shall
cause to be mailed to each holder of Convertible Securities at his address appearing on the Security Register, provided for in Section 305 of this Indenture, as promptly as possible but in any
event no less than fifteen days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution
or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, 

84

 

the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distribution or rights are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be
entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Failure
to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such dividend, distribution, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation
or winding up or any adjustment in the Conversion Price required by this Article Nineteen. 

    SECTION
1912. Covenant to Reserve Shares.

    The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, free from pre-emptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, such number of
shares of Common Stock as shall then be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities.

ARTICLE II
  TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE DEBENTURES    
  

Section 2.1  Designation and Principal Amount. 

    There
is hereby authorized a series of Debt Securities designated the "5.375% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2041", limited in aggregate principal amount to
$1,030,930,000 (or $1,185,568,000 if the Initial Purchaser's option to purchase an additional $150,000,000 of the Units is exercised in full). 

Section 2.2  Maturity. 

    The
Stated Maturity shall be July 1, 2041, unless reset in connection with a Remarketing to 60 days following the Remarketing Date. 

Section 2.3  Global Debentures. 

    If
distributed to holders of Trust Securities in connection with the involuntary or voluntary dissolution of the Trust: 

    (a) The
Debentures in definitive form may be presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee in exchange for a global security in an aggregate principal amount equal
to all Outstanding Debentures (a "Global Debenture"). The Company upon any such presentation shall execute a Global Debenture in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to the Trustee for
authentication and delivery in accordance with the Base Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture. The Depositary for the Debentures will be the The Depositary Trust Company. The Global
Debentures will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, Cede & Co., and delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or a custodian appointed by the Depositary for crediting
to the accounts of its participants pursuant to the instructions of the Administrative Trustees. Payments on the Debentures issued as a Global Debenture will be made to the Depositary or its nominee. 

    (b) If
any Preferred Securities are held in definitive form, the Debentures in definitive form may be presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee, and any
Preferred Security Certificate which represents Preferred Securities other than Preferred Securities held by the depositary for the Preferred Securities or its nominee ("Non Book-Entry
Preferred Securities") will be deemed to represent beneficial ownership interests in Debentures presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee having an aggregate principal amount equal to the
aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Non Book-Entry Preferred Securities until such Preferred Security Certificates are presented to the Security Registrar for transfer or
reissuance, at which time such Preferred Security Certificates will be canceled and a Debenture registered in the name of the holder of the Preferred Security Certificate or the transferee of the
holder of such Preferred Security Certificate, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Preferred Security Certificate canceled
will be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with the Base Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture. On issue of such Debentures,
Debentures with an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were presented by the Property Trustee to the Trustee will be deemed to have been canceled. 

Section 2.4  Interest. 

    (a) Each
Debenture will bear interest at a rate per annum of 5.375% (the "Coupon Rate") of the principal amount of $50 per Debenture from and including April 30,
2001 to, but excluding, the Remarketing Date, and at the Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of the Debenture from and including the Remarketing Date to, but excluding, the Stated Maturity, payable
quarterly in arrears on 

7

 

February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing on August 1, 2001. 

    (b) Interest
not paid on the scheduled Interest Payment Date will accrue and compound quarterly at the Coupon Rate of the principal amount of the Debentures or the
Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of the Debentures, as the case may be. 

    (c) The
Regular Record Dates for the Debentures shall be: 

     (i) as
long as the Debentures are represented by a Global Debenture, the Business Day preceding the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or 

    (ii) if
the Debentures are issued in definitive form, at least one Business Day prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 

	(d)
	The
amount of interest payable on the Debentures for any period will be computed: 

     (i) for
any full 90-day quarterly period, on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months; 

    (ii) for
any period shorter than a full 90-day quarterly period, on the basis of a 30-day month; and 

    (iii) for
any period shorter than a 30-day month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the 30-day month. 

    In
the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Debentures is not a Business Day, payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next day that is a
Business Day (and without any additional interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the
preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally payable. 

Section 2.5  Optional Deferral of Interest. 

    (a) As
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and as long as a Failed Remarketing has not occurred, the Company has the right, at any time and from
time to time, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures for a period (each, an "Extension Period") not exceeding 20 consecutive
quarters, during which Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided that no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date for the
Debentures or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. Upon the occurrence of a Failed Remarketing, any such Extension Period shall terminate, and interest shall become payable in cash on the next Interest
Payment Date. Despite such deferral, interest shall continue to accrue with additional interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate of the principal amount of the
Debentures or the Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of the Debentures, as applicable, compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period ("Compounded Interest"). Prior to the termination of any such
Extension Period, the Company may further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extension Period; provided that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further
extensions of such Extension Period, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. At the termination of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all interest then
accrued and unpaid, plus Compounded Interest. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the
above requirements. 

8

 

    (b) The procedure the Company must follow to exercise its option to defer payments of interest on the Debentures for an Extension Period shall be as follows: 

     (i) If
the Property Trustee shall be the only holder of the Debentures, the Company shall give notice of its election of such extension period to the Property Trustee,
the Administrative Trustees and the Trustee at least one Business day prior to the earlier of: 

    (A) the
next date on which Distributions on the Preferred Securities are payable; or 

    (B) the
date the Administrative Trustees are required to give notice of the record date or the date such Distributions are payable for the first quarter of such
Extension Period to (x) any national stock exchange or other organization on which the Preferred Securities are listed or quoted, if any, or (y) the holders of the Preferred Securities;
or 

    (ii) If
the Property Trustee shall not be the holder of the Debentures, the Company shall give notice of its election of such extension period to the Holders at least
ten Business Days prior to the earlier of: 

    (A) the
Interest Payment Date for the first quarter of such Extension Period; or 

    (B) the
date on which the Company is required to give notice of the record date or the payment date of such related interest payment for the first quarter of such
Extension Period to (x) any national stock exchange or other organization on which the Debentures are listed or quoted, if any, or (y) the Holders.

exchange of Preferred Securities for Debentures equal to the Accreted Value of the exchanged Preferred Securities on such exchange date. 

    (b) No
less than three Business Days prior to the applicable Required Repurchase Date: 

     (i) if
the Preferred Securities to be exchanged are represented by a Global Preferred Security, the Trustee shall, in accordance with the instruction of the Property
Trustee provided for in the Declaration, transfer to the Exchange Agent Debentures having an Accreted Value equal to the Accreted Value of the Preferred Securities for which, pursuant to the
Declaration, the necessary endorsement to the "Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Preferred Security" attached to the Global Preferred Security was made to reduce the amount of Preferred

Securities represented thereby; and 

    (ii) if
the Preferred Securities to be exchanged are represented by Definitive Preferred Securities, the Trustee shall, in accordance with the instruction of the

    (B) does
not subject any of them to more than de minimis regulatory requirements; and 

    (iii) the
receipt by the Administrative Trustees of the prior written consent of the Company. 

    (c) A

Section 6.1  Debentures Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness. 

    The
Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness represented by the Debentures and the
payment of the principal of and interest on each and all of the Debentures is hereby expressly subordinated and 

18

 

junior, to the extent and in the manner set forth and as set forth in this Section 6.1, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. 

    (a) In
the event of any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise, the
holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled first to receive payment of the full amount due thereon in respect of all such Senior Indebtedness and all other amounts due or provision shall be
made for such amount in cash, or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before the Holders are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any character, whether in
cash, securities or other property, on account of the principal of or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Debentures. 

    (b) In
the event of any acceleration of maturity of the Debentures because of an Event of Default, unless the full amount due in respect of all Senior Indebtedness is
paid in cash or other form of payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of or interest on the Debentures or to
acquire any of the Debentures, and the Company shall give prompt written notice of such acceleration to such holders of Senior Indebtedness. 

    (c) In
the event of and during the continuance of any default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Senior Indebtedness, unless all such payments due in
respect of such Senior Indebtedness have been paid in full in cash or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the
principal of or interest on the Debentures or to acquire any of the Debentures. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any default under any Senior Indebtedness or under any
agreement pursuant to which Senior Indebtedness may have been issued. 

    (d) During
the continuance of any event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, as such event of default is defined under any such Senior Indebtedness or in
any agreement pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness has been issued (other than a default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Senior Indebtedness), permitting the holder or holders
of such Senior Indebtedness to
accelerate the maturity thereof, no payment shall be made by the Company, directly or indirectly, with respect to principal of or interest on the Debentures for 179 days following notice in
writing (a "Payment Blockage Notice") to the Company, from any holder or holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture
or under which any instrument evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, that such an event of default has occurred and is continuing, unless such event of default has been cured or
waived or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full; provided, however, if the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness is accelerated, no payment may be made on the Debentures until such Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration (or termination, in the case of a lease) has been cured or
waived. 

    For
purposes of this Section 6.1(d), such Payment Blockage Notice shall be deemed to include notice of all other events of default under such indenture or instrument which are
continuing at the time of the event of default specified in such Payment Blockage Notice. The provisions of this Section 6.1(d) shall apply only to one such Payment Blockage Notice given in any
period of 365 days with respect to any issue of Senior Indebtedness, and no such continuing event of default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage
Notice shall be, or shall be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. 

    (e) In
the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c) and 6.1(d), any payment on account of principal of or interest on the
Debentures shall be made by or on behalf of the Company and received by the Trustee, by any Holder or by any Paying Agent (or, if 

19

 

the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment shall be segregated and held in trust): 

     (i) after
the occurrence of an event specified in Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b), then, unless all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, or provision shall be
made therefor, 

    (ii) after
the happening of an event of default of the type specified in Section 6.1(c) above, then, unless the amount of such Senior Indebtedness then due shall
have been paid in full, or provision made therefor or such event of default shall have been cured or waived, or 

    (iii) after
the happening of an event of default of the type specified in Section 6.1(d) above and delivery of a Payment Blockage Notice, then, unless such event
of default shall have been cured or waived or the 179-day period specified in Section 6.1(d) shall have expired, 

such
payment (subject, in each case, to the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof) shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be immediately paid over to, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as
their interests may appear. 

Section 6.2  Subrogation. 

    Subject
to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness to which the indebtedness evidenced by the Debentures is in the circumstances subordinated as provided in Section 6.1
hereof, the Holders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such
Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Debentures shall be paid in full, and, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders, no such
payment or distribution made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by virtue of this Article which otherwise would have been made to the holders of the Debentures shall be deemed to be a payment by
the Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, provided that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one
hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. 

Section 6.3  Obligation of the Company is Absolute and Unconditional. 

    Nothing
contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Debentures is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of
Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and interest on the Debentures as and when the same
shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, nor shall anything contained herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture,
subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. 

Section 6.4  Maturity of or Default on Senior Indebtedness. 

    Upon
the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all principal of or premium, if any, or interest on, rent or other payment obligations in
respect of all such matured Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full, or such payment shall have been duly provided for, before any payment on account of principal or interest is made upon the
Debentures. 

20

 

Section 6.5  Payments on Debentures Permitted. 

    Except
as expressly provided in this Article, nothing contained in this Article shall affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, payments of the
principal of or interest on the Debentures in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof, or shall prevent the Trustee or any Paying Agent from applying any moneys deposited with it hereunder
to the payment of the principal of or interest on the Debentures. 

Section 6.6  Effectuation of Subordination by Trustee. 

    Each
Holder, by such Holder's acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

    Upon
any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court
of competent jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in
bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders, for the
purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the right of such Persons under this Article, and if such evidence is
not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Persons pending judicial determination as to the right of such Persons to receive such payment. 

Section 6.7  Knowledge of Trustee. 

    Notwithstanding
the provision of this Article or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Indebtedness,
of any default in payment of principal of or interest on, rent or other payment obligation in respect of any Senior Indebtedness, or of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of
moneys to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee having responsibility for the administration of the trust established by this
Indenture shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, any Holder, any Paying Agent of the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness, and, prior to
the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such default or facts exist; provided, however, that unless on the third Business Day prior to
the date upon which by the terms
hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose the Trustee shall have received the notice provided for in this Section 6.7, then, anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such moneys and apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary which may be received by it on or after such date. 

Section 6.8  Trustee's Relation to Senior Indebtedness. 

    The
Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of
Senior Indebtedness and nothing contained in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 

    Nothing
contained in this Article shall apply to claims of or payments to the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 607 of the Base Indenture. 

21

 

    With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Article, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any
fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders, the Company or any other
Person moneys or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise. 

Section 6.9  Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not Impaired. 

    No
right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure
to act on the part of the Company or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be
otherwise charged with. 

Section 6.10  Modification of Terms of Senior Indebtedness. 

    Any
renewal or extension of the time of payment of any Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating
or evidencing Senior Indebtedness, including without limitation the waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the Holders or the Trustee. 

    No
compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of, or waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in
respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any indenture or other instrument under which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such
release is in accordance with the provisions or any applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of this Article or of the Debentures relating to the subordination
thereof. 

 
 

ARTICLE VII
  RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF PREFERRED SECURITIES    
  

Section 7.1  Preferred Security Holders' Rights. 

    Notwithstanding
Section 507 of the Base Indenture, if the Property Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Debentures after a holder of Preferred Securities has made a
written request, the holder of Preferred Securities may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, institute a legal proceeding directly against the Company to enforce the Property Trustee's rights
under the Indenture without first instituting any legal proceeding against the Property Trustee or any other person or entity. 

Section 7.2  Direct Action. 

    Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Indenture, for as long as any Preferred Securities remain outstanding, to the fullest extent permitted by law, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and such event is attributable to the failure of the Company to pay principal of and interest on the Debentures on the date such principal or interest is otherwise payable,
a holder of Preferred Securities may institute a proceeding directly against the Company (a "Direct Action") to enforce payment to such holder of the principal of or interest on Debentures having an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities of such holder. 

22

  

Section 7.3  Payments Pursuant to Direct Actions. 

    The
Company shall have the right to set off against its obligations to the Trust, as Holder, any payment made to a holder of Preferred Securities in connection with a Direct Action. 

 
 

ARTICLE VIII
  REMARKETING    
  

Section 8.1  Effectiveness of this Article. 

    Except
for Section 8.2(a) and 8.2(b), this Article VIII shall become effective only upon a distribution of the Debentures upon dissolution of the Trust which occurs
prior to the Remarketing of the Preferred Securities pursuant to the Declaration. Until such a distribution, or if such distribution occurs after the Remarketing of the Preferred Securities pursuant
to the Declaration, this Article VIII (except for Section 8.2(a) and 8.2(b)) shall have no effect. 

Section 8.2  Remarketing. 

    (a) In
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities: 

     (i) in
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the Accreted Value of the
Debentures as of the end of the day on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date shall become due on the date which is 60 days following the Remarketing Date; 

    (ii) on
the Remarketing Date, the rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures shall become the Reset Rate on the Accreted Value of the Securities

    (iii) on
the Remarketing Settlement Date, interest accrued and unpaid on the Debentures from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to, but

    (b) In
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities and at any time thereafter, a purchaser may exchange its Trust Securities for its pro rata share of
Debentures. In such event, the Administrative Trustees shall cause Debentures held by the Property Trustee, having an aggregate Accreted Value equal to the aggregate Accreted Value of the Trust
Securities purchased by such purchaser and with accrued and unpaid interest equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on the Trust Securities purchased by such purchaser, to be distributed to
such purchaser in exchange for such Holders' pro rata interest in the Trust. In such event, the Debentures held by the Trust shall decrease by the amount of Debentures delivered to the purchaser of
Trust Securities. 

    (c) The
proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures shall be paid to the selling Holders, provided that, upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause
Remarketing Event, the proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement for which the holders of such Units have elected to exercise their Warrants shall be
paid directly to the Warrant Agent to satisfy in full the Exercise Price of the Warrants held by such holders. 

    (d) Upon

at least 20 Trading Days within the immediately preceding 30 consecutive Trading Days, $74.49 per share; 

23

 

    (ii) as of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, no Event of Default or deferral of interest
payments to Holders of the Debentures shall have occurred and be continuing; 

    (iii) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, a registration statement covering the issuance
and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon exercise of such Warrants shall be effective under the Securities Act, or the issuance and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon
exercise of such Warrants shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and 

    (iv) on
the Remarketing Date, the Legal Requirements shall have been satisfied. 

The
settlement of the Remarketing shall occur on the Remarketing Settlement Date, provided that the following conditions precedent are satisfied on the Remarketing Settlement Date: 

    (A) the
Warrant Requirements shall be satisfied; and 

    (B) a
redemption of the Warrants of those holders who have not elected to exercise their Warrants on such date shall have been consummated pursuant to the Warrant

    (x) the
Remarketing cannot occur because of a failure to satisfy either the Warrant Requirements or the Legal Requirements as of or on the relevant date or dates; and 

    (y) the
Company is using its best efforts to satisfy such Requirements; 

the
Company shall have the right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures on a subsequent date which is no later than May 1, 2041, provided that all applicable requirements and conditions
precedents (including the timely occurrence of a Trading Remarketing Event) are satisfied. 

    (e) Upon
the occurrence of a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the Company may elect to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and select a Remarketing Date, provided that
the following conditions precedent are satisfied: 

     (i) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; 

    (ii) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, a registration statement covering the issuance and
sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon exercise of such Warrants shall be effective under the Securities Act, or the issuance and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon
exercise of such Warrants shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and 

    (iii) on
the Remarketing Date, the Legal Requirements shall have been satisfied. 

The
settlement of the Remarketing shall occur on the Remarketing Settlement Date, provided that the following conditions precedent are satisfied on the Remarketing Settlement Date: 

    (A) the
Warrant Requirements shall be satisfied; and 

    (B) a
redemption of the Warrants of those holders who have not elected to exercise their Warrants on such date shall have been consummated pursuant to the Warrant
Agreement. 

24

 

If
any of the foregoing conditions precedent are not satisfied, the Remarketing cannot occur and the contemporaneous redemption of Warrants shall be canceled; provided, however, that if: 

    (x) the
Remarketing cannot occur because of a failure to satisfy either the Warrant Requirements or the Legal Requirements as of or on the relevant date or dates; and 

    (y) the
Company is using its best efforts to satisfy such Requirements; 

the
Company shall have the right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures on a subsequent date which is no later than May 1, 2041, provided that all applicable requirements and conditions
precedents (including the timely occurrence of a Legal Cause Remarketing Event) are satisfied. 

    (f)  On
the Maturity Remarketing Date, a Remarketing of the Debentures shall occur, provided that on such date, the Legal Requirements (to the extent applicable) shall
have been satisfied. 

    If,
for any reason, a Remarketing of the Debentures does not occur on the Maturity Remarketing Date, the Administrative Trustees shall give notice thereof to all Holders of the
Debentures (whether or not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement) prior to the close of business on the following Business Day. In such event: 

     (i) the
rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures (which, on the Maturity Remarketing Date, shall be equal to the principal amount of the
Debentures) shall become the Reset Rate; and 

    (ii) the
Company no longer shall have the option to defer payments of interest on the Debentures. 

    (g) Upon
the occurrence of a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event and the election by the Company to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures, or
upon the Maturity Remarketing Date, as long as the Debentures are evidenced by Global Debenture, deposited with the Clearing Agency, the Company shall request, not later than four nor more than
20 days prior to the Remarketing Date, that the Depositary notify the Holders of the Debentures of the Remarketing of the Debentures and of the procedures that must be followed if such Holder
of Debentures or holder of Units wishes to opt not to participate in the Remarketing of the Debentures. 

    (h) Upon
the occurrence of a Remarketing Event, all of the Debentures (excluding the Debentures as to which the Holders thereof have opted not to participate in the
Remarketing (but including Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement)) shall be remarketed by the Remarketing Agent. Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
Business Day preceding the Remarketing Date, each Holder of Debentures may elect not to have the Debentures held by such Holder remarketed in the Remarketing. Holders of Debentures that are not held
pursuant to the Unit Agreement shall give such notice to the Trustee and Holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement shall give such notice to the Unit Agent. Holders of
Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement and holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement that do not give notice of their intention not to participate in the
Remarketing shall be deemed to have consented to the disposition of their Debentures in the Remarketing. Any such notice shall be irrevocable and may not be conditioned upon the level at which the
Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing. 

    Not
later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the Remarketing Date, the Trustee and the Unit Agent, as applicable, based on the notices received
by it prior to such time, shall notify the Trust, the Company and the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be tendered for purchase in the Remarketing. 

25

 

    (i)  The right of each Holder to have Debentures tendered for purchase shall be limited to the extent that: 

     (i) the
Remarketing Agent conducts a Remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement; 

    (ii) the
Remarketing Agent is able to find a purchaser or purchasers for the Debentures deemed tendered; and 

    (iii) such
purchaser or purchasers deliver the purchase price therefor to the Remarketing Agent. 

    (j)  On
the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remarket the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at a price equal
to: 

     (i) in
connection with a Remarketing upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, 100% of the aggregate Accreted Value as of the end of the day
on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date, and 

    (ii) on
the Maturity Remarketing Date, 100% of the principal amount. 

    (k) If,
as a result of the efforts described in 8.2(j), the Remarketing Agent determines that it will be able to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for
purchase at the purchase price set forth in Section 8.2(j) prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall determine the Reset Rate, which
shall be the rate per annum (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) of 1% per annum) that the Remarketing Agent determines, in its sole judgment, to be the lowest rate per annum
that will enable it to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for Remarketing. 

    (l)  If
none of the Holders of the Debentures or the holders of the Units elects to have their Debentures remarketed in the Remarketing, the Reset Rate shall be the
rate determined by the Remarketing Agent, in its sole discretion, as the rate that would have been established had a Remarketing been held
on the Remarketing Date, and the related modifications to the others terms of the Debentures and the Warrants shall be effective on the Remarketing Date. 

    (m) If,
by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for
purchase, a Failed Remarketing shall be deemed to have occurred and the Remarketing Agent shall so advise by telephone (promptly confirmed in writing) the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the
Trustee, the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust and the Company. The Administrative Trustees shall then give notice of the Failed Remarketing to the Holders of the Debentures prior to the
close of business on the Business Day following the Failed Remarketing Date. In the event of a Failed Remarketing: 

     (i) the
Accreted Value of the Debentures as of the end of the day on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date shall become due on the date which is 60 days
following the Failed Remarketing Date; 

    (ii) the
rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures shall become the Reset Rate; and 

    (iii) the
Company no longer shall have the option to defer payments of interest on the Debentures. 

Notwithstanding
a Failed Remarketing, subject to the satisfaction of the Legal Requirements, the Warrants shall be redeemed at the Warrant Value and the holders of Warrants shall have the option to
exercise its Warrants in lieu of such redemption, as provided in the Unit Agreement and the Warrant Agreement. 

26

 

    (n) By approximately 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, provided that there has not been a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall
advise, by telephone (promptly confirmed in writing): 

     (i) the
Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trustee, the Trust and the Company of the Reset Rate determined in the Remarketing and the aggregate principal amount of
Debentures sold in the Remarketing; 

    (ii) each
purchaser (or the Depositary participant thereof) of the Reset Rate and the aggregate principal amount of Debentures such purchaser is to purchase; and 

    (iii) each
purchaser to give instructions to its Depositary participant to pay the purchase price on the Remarketing Settlement Date in same day funds against delivery
of the Debentures purchased through the facilities of the Depositary. 

    (o) In
accordance with the Depositary's normal procedures, on the Remarketing Settlement Date, the transactions described above with respect to each Debenture deemed
tendered for purchase and sold in the Remarketing shall be executed through the Depositary, and the accounts of the respective Depositary participants shall be debited and credited and such Debentures
delivered by book-entry as necessary to effect purchases and sales of such Debentures. The Depositary shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures. 

    (p) If
any Holder of the Debentures selling such Debentures (or any holder of Units selling the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement) in the
Remarketing fails to deliver such Debentures, the Depositary participant of such selling holder and of any other Person that was to have purchased Debentures in the Remarketing may deliver to any such
other Person an aggregate principal amount of Debentures that is less than the aggregate principal amount of Debentures that otherwise was to be purchased by such Person. In such event, the aggregate
principal amount of Debentures to be so delivered shall be determined by such Depositary participant, and delivery of such aggregate principal amount of Debentures shall constitute good delivery. 

    (q) The
Remarketing Agent is not obligated to purchase any Debentures that otherwise would remain unsold in the Remarketing. Neither the Trust, any Trustee, the Company
nor the Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of the Debentures for Remarketing. 

    (r) Under
the Remarketing Agreement, the Company shall be liable for, and shall pay, any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Remarketing, and the
Trust shall not have any liabilities for such costs and expenses. 

    (s) The
tender and settlement procedures set forth in this Section 8.2, including provisions for payment by purchasers of the Debentures in the Remarketing,
shall be subject to modification to the extent required by the Depositary or if the book-entry system is no longer available for the Debentures at the time of the Remarketing, to
facilitate the tendering and remarketing of the Debentures in definitive form. In addition, the Remarketing Agent may modify the settlement procedures set forth herein in order to facilitate the
settlement process.

[REVERSE OF DEBENTURE]    

WASHINGTON MUTUAL INC. 

5.375% Subordinated Junior Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2041 

    Capitalized
terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

	1.
	Principal
and Interest. 

    Washington
Mutual Inc., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Debenture at the Coupon Rate from and including
April 30, 2001, to, but excluding, the Remarketing Date, and on the Accreted Value of this Debenture on the Remarketing Date at the Reset Rate from and including the Remarketing Date to, but
excluding, the Stated Maturity. The Company will pay interest on this Debenture quarterly in arrears on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year (each an
"Interest Payment Date"), commencing on August 1, 2001. Interest not paid on the scheduled Interest Payment Date will accrue and compound quarterly at the Coupon Rate of the principal amount of
this Debenture or the Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of this Debenture, as the case may be. 

    Interest
on the Debentures shall be computed (i) for any full quarterly 90-day period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months, (ii) for any period shorter than a full quarterly 90-day period, on the basis of a 30-day month and (iii) for any period less than a 30-day
month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the 30-day month. 

	2.
	Optional
Deferral of Interest. 

    As
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and as long as a Failed Remarketing has not occurred, the Company has the right, at any time and from time to time, to
defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures for a period (each, an "Extension Period") not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters, during which
Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Debentures, provided that no Extension Period shall end on a
date other than an Interest Payment Date for the Debentures or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. Upon the occurrence of a Failed Remarketing, any such Extension Period shall terminate, and interest
shall become payable in cash on the next Interest Payment Date. Despite such deferral, interest shall continue to accrue with additional interest thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at
the Coupon Rate of the principal amount of the Debentures or Reset Rate of the Accreted Value of the Debentures, as applicable, compounded quarterly during any such Extension Period ("Compounded
Interest"). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extension Period; provided that such Extension Period,
together with all such previous and further extensions of such Extension Period, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters or extend beyond the Stated Maturity. At the termination of any Extension
Period, the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid, plus Compounded Interest. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due, the Company may
commence a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. 

    The
Company shall pay all deferred interest and Compounded Interest on the Debentures prior to the exercise of its right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures. 

    During
an Extension Period, the Company may not: 

    (a) declare
or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock; or 

    (b) make
any payment of principal of or interest on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank on a parity with or junior in interest
to the Debentures or make 

A–3

 

any guarantee payments with respect to any guarantee by the Company of the debt securities of any subsidiary of the Company if such guarantee ranks on a parity with or junior in interest to the
Debentures; 

in
each case, other than: 

     (i) dividends
or distributions in capital stock (or rights to acquire capital stock) of the Company; 

    (ii) payments
under the Guarantee; 

    (iii) any
declarations of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders' rights plan, or the issuances of stock under any such plan in the future,
or redemptions or repurchases of any rights pursuant to a rights agreement; 

    (iv) purchases
or acquisitions of capital stock of the Company in connection with the satisfaction by the Company of its obligations under any employee benefit plans;
and 

    (v) repurchases
of capital stock of the Company in connection with the satisfaction by the Company of its obligations pursuant to any acquisitions of businesses made by
the Company (which repurchases are made in connection with the satisfaction of indemnification obligations of the sellers of such businesses). 

	3.
	Method
of Payment. 

    Interest
on any Debenture 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. As long as the Debentures are represented by a Global Debenture, the Regular Record
Dates for the Debentures shall be the Business Day preceding the corresponding Interest Payment Date. If the Debentures are issued in definitive form, the Regular Record Dates for the Debentures shall
be at least one Business Day prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 

	4.
	Paying
Agent and Security Registrar. 

    Initially,
The Bank of New York, the Trustee, will act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent and Security Registrar without notice to any
Holder. 

	5.
	Indenture.

    The
Company issued this Debenture under an Indenture, dated as of April 30, 2001 (the "Base Indenture"), between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 30, 2001 (the "First Supplemental Indenture", together with the Base Indenture, the "Indenture"),
between the Company and the Trustee. 

	6.
	Redemption.

    The
Company shall have no right to redeem the Debentures. 

	7.
	Sinking
Fund. 

    The
Debentures will not be subject to a sinking fund provision. 

	8.
	Limited
Right to Require Exchange of Preferred Securities and Repurchase of Debentures. 

    Pursuant
to Section 6.7 of the Declaration, in the event a holder of a Unit exercises a Warrant on a date other than a Remarketing Settlement Date and elects to exercise its
Repurchase Right, the Company shall be required on the applicable Required Repurchase Date to repurchase at the 

A–4

 

Repurchase Price Debentures which, pursuant to the Declaration, have been received in exchange for Preferred Securities. 

	9.
	Change
of Control Right to Require Exchange of Preferred Securities and Repurchase of Debentures. 

    Pursuant
to Section 6.8 of the Declaration, in the event a Change of Control occurs and the holder of a Unit or the holder of a Preferred Security, as the case may be, elects
to exercise its Change of Control Repurchase Right, the Company shall be required on the Change of Control Repurchase Date to repurchase at the Change of Control Repurchase Price Debentures which,
pursuant to the Declaration, have been received in exchange for Preferred Securities. 

	10.
	Distribution
of Debentures in Exchange for Trust Securities Upon the Occurrence of a Special Event. 

    If
at any time a Special Event occurs and certain conditions are satisfied, the Administrative Trustees may dissolve the Trust and, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of
the Trust as provided by
applicable law, cause the Debentures held by the Property Trustee to be distributed to the holders of Trust Securities in liquidation of such holders' interests in the Trust on a Pro Rata basis, upon
not less than 30 nor more than 60 days notice, within the 90 Day Period, and, simultaneous with such distribution, to cause a Like Amount of the Securities to be exchanged by the Trust on a Pro
Rata basis. 

    A
Debenture Distribution Notice, which notice shall be irrevocable, shall be given by the Trust by mail to each holder of Trust Securities as provided in the Indenture. 

    In
the event of a dissolution of the Trust and a distribution of the Debentures, the Company shall have the same right, and shall be subject to same terms and conditions, to cause a
Remarketing of the Debentures as the Company has and is subject to under Section 6.6 of the Declaration to cause a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities. 

	11.
	Remarketing.

    Except
as set forth herein, these remarketing provisions shall become effective only upon a distribution of the Debentures upon dissolution of the Trust which occurs prior to the
Remarketing of the Preferred Securities pursuant to the Declaration. Until such a distribution, or if such distribution occurs after the Remarketing of the Preferred Securities pursuant to the
Declaration, these remarketing provisions shall have no effect. 

    In
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities: 

     (i) in
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the Accreted Value of the
Debentures as of the end of the day on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date shall become due on the date which is 60 days following the Remarketing Date; 

    (ii) on
the Remarketing Date, the rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures shall become the Reset Rate on the Accreted Value of the Securities
established in the Remarketing of the Preferred Securities; and 

    (iii) on
the Remarketing Settlement Date, interest accrued and unpaid on the Debentures from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to, but
excluding, the Remarketing Settlement Date shall be payable to the holders of the Debentures on the Special Record Date. 

    In
connection with a Remarketing of the Preferred Securities and at any time thereafter, a purchaser may exchange its Trust Securities for its pro rata share of Debentures. In such
event, the 

A–5

 

Administrative Trustees shall cause Debentures held by the Property Trustee, having an aggregate Accreted Value equal to the aggregate Accreted Value of the Trust Securities purchased by such
purchaser and with accrued and unpaid interest equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on the Trust Securities purchased by such purchaser, to be distributed to such purchaser in exchange
for such Holders' pro rata interest in the Trust. In such event, the Debentures held by the Trust shall decrease by the amount of Debentures delivered to the purchaser of Trust Securities. 

    The
proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures shall be paid to the selling Holders, provided that, upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the
proceeds from the Remarketing of the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement for which the holders of such Units have elected to exercise their Warrants shall be paid directly to the
Warrant Agent to satisfy in full the Exercise Price of the Warrants held by such holders. 

    Upon
the occurrence of a Trading Remarketing Event, the Company may elect to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and select a Remarketing Date, provided that the following
conditions precedent are satisfied: 

     (i) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures, the Closing Price of a share of the Common Stock exceeds and has exceeded for
at least 20 Trading Days within the immediately preceding 30 consecutive Trading Days, $74.49 

    (ii) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, no Event of Default or deferral of interest
payments to Holders of the Debentures shall have occurred and be continuing; 

    (iii) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, a registration statement covering the issuance
and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon exercise of such Warrants shall be effective under the Securities Act, or the issuance and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon
exercise of such Warrants shall be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and 

    (iv) on
the Remarketing Date, the Legal Requirements shall have been satisfied. 

The
settlement of the Remarketing shall occur on the Remarketing Settlement Date, provided that the following conditions precedent are satisfied on the Remarketing Settlement Date: 

    (A) the
Warrant Requirements shall be satisfied; and 

    (B) a
redemption of the Warrants of those holders who have not elected to exercise their Warrants on such date shall have been consummated pursuant to the Warrant
Agreement. 

If
any of the foregoing conditions precedent are not satisfied, the Remarketing cannot occur and the contemporaneous redemption of Warrants shall be canceled; provided, however, that if: 

    (x) the
Remarketing cannot occur because of a failure to satisfy either the Warrant Requirements or the Legal Requirements as of or on the relevant date or dates; and 

    (y) the
Company is using its best efforts to satisfy such Requirements; 

the
Company shall have the right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures on a subsequent date which is no later than May 1, 2041, provided that all applicable requirements and conditions
precedents (including the timely occurrence of a Trading Remarketing Event) are satisfied. 

A–6

 

    Upon the occurrence of a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, the Company may elect to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and select a Remarketing Date, provided that the following
conditions precedent are satisfied: 

     (i) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; 

    (ii) as
of the date of which the Company elects to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures and on the Remarketing Date, a registration statement covering the issuance and
sale of Common Stock to the
holders of Warrants upon exercise of such Warrants shall be effective under the Securities Act, or the issuance and sale of Common Stock to the holders of Warrants upon exercise of such Warrants shall
be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and 

    (iii) on
the Remarketing Date, the Legal Requirements shall have been satisfied. 

The
settlement of the Remarketing shall occur on the Remarketing Settlement Date, provided that the following conditions precedent are satisfied on the Remarketing Settlement Date: 

    (A) the
Warrant Requirements shall be satisfied; and 

    (B) a
redemption of the Warrants of those holders who have not elected to exercise their Warrants on such date shall have been consummated pursuant to the Warrant
Agreement. 

If
any of the foregoing conditions precedent are not satisfied, the Remarketing cannot occur and the contemporaneous redemption of Warrants shall be canceled; provided, however, that if: 

    (x) the
Remarketing cannot occur because of a failure to satisfy either the Warrant Requirements or the Legal Requirements as of or on the relevant date or dates; and 

    (y) the
Company is using its best efforts to satisfy such Requirements; 

the
Company shall have the right to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures on a subsequent date which is no later than May 1, 2041, provided that all applicable requirements and conditions
precedents (including the timely occurrence of a Legal Cause Remarketing Event) are satisfied. 

    On
the Maturity Remarketing Date, a Remarketing of the Debentures shall occur, provided that on such date, the Legal Requirements (to the extent applicable) shall have been satisfied. 

    If,
for any reason, a Remarketing of the Debentures does not occur on the Maturity Remarketing Date, the Administrative Trustees shall give notice thereof to all Holders of Debentures
(whether or not held
pursuant to the Unit Agreement) prior to the close of business on the following Business Day. In such event: 

     (i) the
rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures (which, on the Maturity Remarketing Date, shall be equal to the principal amount of the
Debentures) shall become the Reset Rate; and 

    (ii) the
Company no longer shall have the option to defer payments of interest on the Debentures. 

    Upon
the occurrence of a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event and the election by the Company to cause a Remarketing of the Debentures, or upon the Maturity
Remarketing Date, as long as the Debentures are evidenced by Global Debenture, deposited with the Clearing Agency, the Company shall request, not later than four nor more than 20 days prior to
the Remarketing Date, that the Depositary notify the Holders of the Debentures of the Remarketing of the Debentures and of the procedures that must be followed if such Holder of Debentures or holder
of Units wishes to opt not to participate in the Remarketing of the Debentures. 

A–7

 

    Upon the occurrence of a Remarketing Event, all of the Debentures (excluding the Debentures as to which the Holders thereof have opted not to participate in the Remarketing (but
including Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit Agreement)) shall be remarketed by the Remarketing Agent. Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding
the Remarketing Date, each Holder of Debentures may elect not to have the Debentures held by such Holder remarketed in the Remarketing. Holders of Debentures that are not held pursuant to the Unit
Agreement shall give such notice to the Trustee and Holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement shall give such notice to the Unit Agent. Holders of Debentures that are not held
pursuant to the Unit Agreement and holders of Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement that do not give notice of their intention not to participate in the Remarketing shall be deemed
to have consented to the disposition of their Debentures in the Remarketing. Any such notice shall be irrevocable and may not be conditioned upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established in
the Remarketing. 

    Not
later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the Remarketing Date, the Trustee and the Unit Agent, as applicable, based on the notices received
by it prior to such time, shall notify the Trust, the Company and the Remarketing Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be tendered for purchase in the Remarketing. 

    The
right of each Holder to have Debentures tendered for purchase shall be limited to the extent that: 

     (i) the
Remarketing Agent conducts a Remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement; 

    (ii) the
Remarketing Agent is able to find a purchaser or purchasers for the Debentures deemed tendered; and 

    (iii) such
purchaser or purchasers deliver the purchase price therefor to the Remarketing Agent. 

    On
the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remarket the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at a price equal to: 

     (i) in
connection with a Remarketing upon a Trading Remarketing Event or a Legal Cause Remarketing Event, 100% of the aggregate Accreted Value as of the end of the day
on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date, and 

    (ii) on
the Maturity Remarketing Date, 100% of the principal amount. 

    If,
as a result of the efforts described herein, the Remarketing Agent determines that it will be able to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase at the purchase
price set forth above prior to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent shall determine the Reset Rate, which shall be the rate per annum (rounded to the
nearest one-thousandth (0.001) of 1% per annum) that the Remarketing Agent determines, in its sole judgment, to be the lowest rate per annum that will enable it to remarket all of the
Debentures deemed tendered for Remarketing. 

    If
none of the Holders of the Debentures or the holders of the Units elects to have their Debentures remarketed in the Remarketing, the Reset Rate shall be the rate determined by the
Remarketing Agent, in its sole discretion, as the rate that would have been established had a Remarketing been held on the Remarketing Date, and the related modifications to the others terms of the
Debentures and the Warrants shall be effective on the Remarketing Date. 

    If,
by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all of the Debentures deemed tendered for purchase, a Failed
Remarketing shall be 

A–8

 

deemed to have occurred and the Remarketing Agent shall so advise by telephone the Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trustee, the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust and the Company.
The Administrative Trustees shall then give notice of the Failed Remarketing to the Holders of the Debentures prior to the close of business on the Business Day following the Failed Remarketing Date.
In the event of a Failed Remarketing: 

     (i) the
Accreted Value of the Debentures as of the end of the day on the day next preceding the Remarketing Date shall become due on the date which is 60 days
following the Failed Remarketing Date; 

    (ii) the
rate of interest per annum on the Accreted Value of the Debentures shall become the Reset Rate; and 

    (iii) the
Company no longer shall have the option to defer payments of interest on the Debentures. 

Notwithstanding
a Failed Remarketing, subject to the satisfaction of the Legal Requirements, the Warrants shall be redeemed at the Warrant Value and a holders of Warrants shall have the option to
exercise its Warrants in lieu of such redemption, as provided in the Unit Agreement and the Warrant Agreement. 

    By
approximately 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Remarketing Date, provided that there has not been a Failed Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall advise, by
telephone: 

     (i) the
Depositary, the Property Trustee, the Trustee, the Trust and the Company of the Reset Rate determined in the Remarketing and the aggregate principal amount of
Debentures sold in the Remarketing; 

    (ii) each
purchaser (or the Depositary participant thereof) of the Reset Rate and the aggregate principal amount of Debentures such purchaser is to purchase; and 

    (iii) each
purchaser to give instructions to its Depositary participant to pay the purchase price on the Remarketing Settlement Date in same day funds against delivery
of the Debentures purchased through the facilities of the Depositary. 

    In
accordance with the Depositary's normal procedures, on the Remarketing Settlement Date, the transactions described above with respect to each Debenture deemed tendered for purchase
and sold in the Remarketing shall be executed through the Depositary, and the accounts of the respective Depositary participants shall be debited and credited and such Debentures delivered by
book-entry as necessary to effect purchases and sales of such Debentures. The Depositary shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures. 

    If
any Holder of the Debentures selling such Debentures (or any holder of Units selling the Debentures that are held pursuant to the Unit Agreement) in the Remarketing fails to
deliver such Debentures, the Depositary participant of such selling holder and of any other Person that was to have purchased Debentures in the Remarketing may deliver to any such other Person an
aggregate principal amount of Debentures that is less than the aggregate principal amount of Debentures that otherwise was to be purchased by such Person. In such event, the aggregate principal amount
of Debentures to be so delivered shall be determined by such Depositary participant, and delivery of such aggregate principal amount of Debentures shall constitute good delivery. 

    The
Remarketing Agent is not obligated to purchase any Debentures that otherwise would remain unsold in the Remarketing. Neither the Trust, any Trustee, the Company nor the
Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of the Debentures for Remarketing. 

A–9

 

    Under the Remarketing Agreement, the Company shall be liable for, and shall pay, any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Remarketing, and the Trust shall not
have any liabilities for such costs and expenses. 

    The
tender and settlement procedures set forth herein, including provisions for payment by purchasers of the Debentures in the Remarketing, shall be subject to modification to the
extent required by the Depositary or if the book-entry system is no longer available for the Debentures at the time of the Remarketing, to facilitate the tendering and remarketing of the
Debentures in definitive form. In addition, the Remarketing Agent may modify the settlement procedures set forth herein in order to facilitate the settlement process. 

	12.
	Subordination.

    The
payment of principal of and interest on this Debenture is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior
payment in full of all amounts then due on all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and this Debenture is issued subject to such subordination provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each
Holder of this Debenture, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder's behalf to take such action
as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee such Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

	13.
	Defaults
and Remedies. 

    The
Indenture provides that an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures occurs when any of the following occurs: 

    (a) the
Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any of the Debentures when it becomes due and payable at Stated Maturity, upon exercise of a Repurchase
Right, upon exercise of a Change of Control Repurchase Right or otherwise, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of Article 6 of the First Supplemental
Indenture; 

    (b) the
Company defaults in the payment of interest on any of the Debentures when it becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days,
whether or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of Article 6 of the First Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that a valid extension of the interest payment
period does not constitute a default in the payment of interest; 

    (c) the
Company fails to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in the Debentures or the Indenture (other than a covenant included in the
Indenture solely for the benefit of any series of Debt Securities other than the Debentures) and such default continues for a period of 90 days after written notice of such failure is given as
specified in the Indenture; 

    (d) there
are certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company; or 

    (e) the
voluntarily or involuntarily dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, except in connection with: 

     (i) the
distribution of the Debentures held by the Trust to the holders of the Trust Securities in liquidation of their interests in the Trust; 

    (ii) the
redemption of all of the outstanding Trust Securities; or 

    (iii) certain
mergers, consolidations, conversions, amalgamations, replacements or other transactions involving the Trust, each as permitted under the Declaration. 

A–10

 

    If
an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all of the Debentures may be declared due and payable, in the manner, with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

	14.
	Amendment;
Supplement; Waiver. 

    The
Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, without the consent of any Holder, to execute supplemental indentures modifying certain provisions of the
Indenture, provided that no such modification has a material adverse effect on the interests of the Holders. 

    In
addition, the Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures and all other series of Debt Securities affected at the time Outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Debentures; provided, however, that no such
supplemental indenture may, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Debenture, among other things: 

     (i) change
the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or the time of payment of any installment of interest on, any Debenture; 

    (ii) reduce
the principal amount of, or the rate of interest on any Debenture; 

    (iii) change
the place of payment where the Debentures or any interest thereon is payable; 

    (iv) impair
the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or with respect to the Debentures; 

    (v) reduce
the above-stated percentage of principal amount of Debentures, the Holders of which are required to modify or amend the Indenture, to consent to any waiver
thereunder or to approve any supplemental indenture; 

    (vi) change
any obligation of the Company to maintain an office or agency in the place and for the purposes required by the Indenture; or 

   (vii) modify
any of the above provisions; 

and
provided, further, that no such supplemental indenture shall be effective until the holders of not less than 662/3% of the aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Trust
Securities shall have consented to such supplemental indenture; and provided, further, that where the consent of the Holders of not less than 662/3% of the aggregate principal amount of
the Debentures is required under the Indenture, no such supplemental indenture shall be effective until the holders of at least the same proportion in aggregate stated liquidation amount of the Trust
Securities shall have consented to such supplemental indenture. 

    The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time Outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all
of the Holders of the Debentures, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to the
Debentures, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any of the Debentures (unless cured as provided in the Indenture) or in respect of a covenant or
provision that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of each Debenture then Outstanding. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this Debenture (unless
revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued in exchange herefor or in
place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

	Restrictive
Covenants. 

    The
Indenture requires the Company, for as long as the Preferred Securities remain outstanding, to: 

    (a) maintain,
directly or indirectly, 100% ownership of the Common Securities; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company may succeed to the
Company's ownership of such Common Securities; 

    (b) cause
the Trust to (a) remain a statutory business trust, except in connection with the distribution of the Debentures to the Holders, the redemption of all
of the Securities, or certain mergers, consolidations, conversions or amalgamations, each as permitted by the Declaration, (b) not to voluntarily dissolve, wind up, liquidate or be terminated,
except as permitted by this Declaration and (c) otherwise continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes; 

    (c) use
its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Trust will not be an "investment company" required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended; and 

    (d) not
to take any action that would be reasonably likely to cause the Trust to be classified as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a
corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. 

    The
Indenture also imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company to, among other things, merge, consolidate or sell, assign, transfer or lease all or substantially all of
its properties or assets. Such covenants and limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Company must report periodically to the Trustee on compliance with the
covenants in the Indenture. 

	16.

Transfer; Exchange. 

    The
Debentures of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $50 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject
to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, Debentures of this series so issued are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of this series of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

    As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Debenture is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on the Security Register of the
Company, upon surrender of this Debenture for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of
authorized denominations and
for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.

registered Holder of this Debenture shall be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

	18.

respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue
of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for
the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.
