any provision of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an

opinion need be furnished.

 

    7

     

    

 

Every certificate or opinion
with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

 

(a)              
a statement that each Person signing such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition and the definitions

	Section 1.03.	        Form
of Documents Delivered to Trustee.

 

In any case where several
matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters
be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document,
but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other
matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

 

Any certificate or opinion
of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which such officer’s certificate or opinion are based are erroneous. Any such certificate
or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession
of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

 

Where any Person is required
to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments

    8

     

    

 

Whenever, subsequent to
the receipt by the Trustee of any Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate, Opinion of Counsel or other document or instrument,
a clerical, typographical or other inadvertent or unintentional error or omission shall be discovered therein, a new document or
instrument may be substituted therefor in corrected form with the same force and effect as if originally filed in the corrected
form and, irrespective of the date or dates of the actual execution and/or delivery thereof, such substitute document or instrument
shall be deemed to have been executed and/or delivered as of the date or dates required with respect to the document or instrument
for which it is substituted. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, if any such corrective document or instrument
indicates that action has been taken by or at the request of the Company which could not have been taken had the original document
or instrument not contained such error or omission, the action so taken shall not be invalidated or otherwise rendered ineffective
but shall be and remain in full force and effect (except to the extent that such action was a result of willful misconduct or bad
faith or had or could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Holders of any Debt Securities issued hereunder).

 

Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, any Debt Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or instrument shall nevertheless be
the valid obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding
Debt Securities.

 

	Section 1.04.	        Acts of Holders.

 

(a)              
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture
to be made, given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor
signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing or, alternatively, may be embodied in and evidenced by
the record of Holders voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders
duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII, or a combination of such instruments and any
such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments
and any such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act”
of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument
or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Debt Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose
of this Indenture and (subject to Section 9.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the
manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 13.06.

 

(b)               The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of
such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds,
certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof or may be proved
in any other manner that the Trustee and the Company deem sufficient. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a
capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his
authority.

 

    9

     

    

 

(c)              
The principal amount (except as otherwise contemplated in clause (y) of the proviso to the definition of Outstanding) and
serial numbers of Debt Securities held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Debt Security Register.

 

(d)              
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act of a Holder shall bind every
future Holder of the same Debt Security and the Holder of every Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof
or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Debt Security.

 

(e)              
Until such time as written instruments shall have been delivered to the Trustee with respect to the requisite percentage
of principal amount of Debt Securities for the action contemplated by such instruments, any such instrument executed and delivered
by or on behalf of a Holder may be revoked with respect to any or all of such Debt Securities by written notice by such Holder
or any subsequent Holder, proven in the manner in which such instrument was proven.

 

(f)               
Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, authenticated and delivered after any Act of Holders may, and shall
if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any action taken by such Act of Holders. If the
Company shall so determine, new Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Trustee and the Company, to such action may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranche.

 

(g)              
If the Company shall solicit from Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such
a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before
or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders
for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the Outstanding Debt Securities have authorized
or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose
the Outstanding Debt Securities shall be computed as of the record date.

 

	Section 1.05.	        Notices,
                                         Etc. to Trustee and Company.

 

Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company, or the Company
by the Trustee or by any Holder, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and delivered personally to an officer or other responsible employee of the addressee, or transmitted by
facsimile transmission or other direct written electronic means to such telephone number or other electronic communications
address as the parties hereto shall from time to time designate, or transmitted by certified or registered mail, charges

	Section 1.06.	        Notice to Holders of Debt Securities; Waiver.

 

Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given, and
shall be deemed given, to Holders if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event,
at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Debt Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than
the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 

In case by reason of the
suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice to Holders by
mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every
purpose hereunder. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect
in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

 

    11

     

    

 

Any notice required by
this Indenture may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event otherwise
to be specified therein, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with
the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

 

	Section 1.07.	        Conflict
                                         with Trust Indenture Act.

 

If any provision of this
Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture
by, or is otherwise governed by, any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such other provision shall control; and if any
provision hereof otherwise conflicts with the Trust Indenture Act, the Trust Indenture Act shall control.

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

 

	Section 1.11.	        Benefits of Indenture.

 

Nothing in this Indenture
or the Debt Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, their successors hereunder,

 Each of the parties hereto:

 

(i)                
agrees that any suit, action or proceeding against it arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Debt Securities,
as the case may be, may be instituted in any U.S. federal or New York state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in New York
City and in the courts of its own domicile, in respect of actions brought against such party as a defendant;

 

(ii)

(iii)           
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying

of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. Delivery
of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Indenture or the Debt Securities by facsimile or by electronic (.pdf) format

Securities and any other documents to be delivered in connection herewith may be electronically or digitally signed, and that any

of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities other than a provision in
Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, or in the indenture supplemental hereto, Board Resolution or
Officer’s Certificate that establishes the terms of the Debt Securities of such series or Tranche, which specifically
states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of interest or principal and premium, if any, need

Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity,
and, if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for
the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to such
Business Day.

	Section 2.03.	         Debt
                                                                                                         Securities Issuable in the Form of a Global Security.

 

(a)               If
the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.01 that the Debt Securities of a particular 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 Section 3.03 and the Company Order delivered to the Trustee thereunder, authenticate
and deliver such Global Security or Securities, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal
to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Security
or Securities, (ii) may provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Debt Securities represented thereby may from
time to time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges, (iii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such
Global Security or Securities or its nominee, (iv) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to
the Depositary’s instruction and (v) shall bear a legend in accordance with the requirements of the Depositary. The
Trustee shall enter into any agreement with the Depositary related to such Global Securities as the Company may direct in
such Company Order.

 

    14

     

    

 

(b)              
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section or of Section 3.05, except as contemplated by the provisions
of paragraph (c) below, unless the terms of a Global Security expressly permit such Global Security to be exchanged in whole or
in part for individual Debt Securities, a Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided
in Section 3.05, only to a nominee of the Depositary for such Global Security, or to the Depositary, or to a successor
Depositary for such Global Security selected or approved by the Company, or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

(c)           
(1)If at any time the Depositary for a Global Security notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as the Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities for such series shall no longer
be eligible or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to such Global Security. If a successor Depositary for such Global Security is not appointed
by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company will execute,
and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities of such series in the form
of definitive certificates in exchange for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver Debt Securities of such series in
the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global Security in exchange for such Global Security. Such Debt Securities will be issued to and registered in the name of such
Person or Persons as are specified by the Depositary.

 

(2)    To
the extent legally permitted and subject to the rules and regulations of the acting Depositary, the Company may at any time and
in its sole discretion determine that the Debt Securities of any series issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Securities
shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In any such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee,
upon receipt of a Company Request for the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates
in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver without service charge to each Person specified
by the Depositary Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the principal amount of such Global Security representing such series, or the aggregate principal amount of such Global
Securities representing such series, in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

 

    15

     

    

 

 

(3)       If
specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to Debt Securities issued or issuable in the form of
a Global Security, the Depositary for such Global Security may surrender such Global Security in exchange in whole or in part for
Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms 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 any
authorized denomination as requested by such Person in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s
beneficial interest in the Global Security and (B) to such Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and terms and in an authorized
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.

 

(4)       In
any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three subparagraphs, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire
principal amount of a Global Security for Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates, such Global Security shall be
canceled by the Trustee. Except as provided in the immediately preceding subparagraph, Debt 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, acting pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct
the Trustee. Provided that the Company and the Trustee have so agreed, the Trustee shall deliver such Debt Securities to the Persons
in whose names the Debt Securities are so to be registered.

With respect to Debt Securities

or the Officer’s Certificate pursuant to such supplemental indenture or Board Resolution, as the case may be, may provide
general terms or parameters for Debt Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of Debt Securities of
such series, or any Tranche thereof, shall be specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company
or its agents in accordance with procedures specified in a Company Order as contemplated by clause (b) of the third paragraph of
Section 3.03.

 

	Section 3.02.	Denominations.

 

Unless otherwise provided
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof, the Debt Securities

	Section 3.03.	
Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

 

Unless otherwise provided
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof, the Debt Securities
shall be executed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Officer and may have the corporate seal of the Company affixed thereto
or reproduced thereon attested by any other Authorized Officer. The signature of any or all of these officers on the Debt Securities
may be manual, electronic, or facsimile.

 

Debt Securities bearing
the manual, electronic, or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at the time of execution Authorized 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 did not hold such offices at the date of such Debt Securities.

 

    20

     

    

 

The Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver Debt Securities of a series, for original issue, at one time or from time to time in accordance with the Company Order
referred to below, upon receipt by the Trustee of:

 

(a)           the
instrument or instruments establishing the form or forms and terms of such series, as provided in Sections 2.01 and 3.01;

 

(b)          
a Company Order requesting the authentication and delivery of such Debt Securities and, to the extent that the terms of
such Debt Securities shall not have been established in an indenture supplemental hereto or in a Board Resolution, or in an Officer’s
Certificate pursuant to a supplemental indenture or Board Resolution, all as contemplated by Sections 2.01 and 3.01,
either (i) establishing such terms or (ii) in the case of Debt Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, specifying
procedures, acceptable to the Trustee, by which such terms are to be established (which procedures may provide, to the extent acceptable
to the Trustee, for authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or any agent or agents
thereof, which oral instructions are to be promptly confirmed electronically or in writing), in either case in accordance with
the instrument or instruments delivered pursuant to clause (a) above;

 

(c)           the Debt Securities of such series, executed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Officer;

 

(d)           an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that:

 

(i)       
the form or forms of such Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and have been established in conformity
with the provisions of this Indenture;

 

(ii)      
the terms of such Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and have been established in conformity with
the provisions of this Indenture; and

 

(iii)     
assuming authentication and delivery by the Trustee and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel,
such Debt Securities will have been duly issued under this Indenture and will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company,
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement, to laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement
of creditors’ rights, including, without limitation, bankruptcy and insolvency laws and to general principles of equity (regardless
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

 

provided, however, that, with
respect to Debt Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such Opinion of
Counsel only once at or prior to the time of the first authentication of such Debt Securities (provided that such Opinion of Counsel
addresses the authentication and delivery of all Debt Securities of such series) and that in lieu of the opinions described in
clauses (ii) and (iii) above Counsel may opine that:

 

(x)       
when the terms of such Debt Securities shall have been established pursuant to a Company Order or Orders or pursuant to such
procedures (acceptable to the Trustee) as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order or Orders, all as
contemplated by and in accordance with the instrument or instruments delivered pursuant to clause (a) above, such terms will
have been duly authorized by the Company and will have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
and

 

    21

     

    

 

(y)      
such Debt Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and the Company Order
or Orders or specified procedures referred to in paragraph (x) above and issued and delivered by the Company in the manner
and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will have been duly issued under this Indenture and will
constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits provided by the Indenture, and
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement, to laws relating to or affecting generally the
enforcement of creditors’ rights, including, without limitation, bankruptcy and insolvency laws and to general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

With respect to Debt Securities
of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of
such Debt Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the
Opinion of Counsel and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 and this Section, as applicable,
at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Debt Securities of such series unless and until such opinion or other documents
have been superseded or revoked or expire by their terms. In connection with the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities
of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that the Company’s instructions to authenticate
and deliver such Debt Securities do not violate any rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction
over the Company.

 

If the form or terms of
the Debt Securities of any series have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate
as permitted by Sections 2.01 or 3.01, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Debt Securities if
the issuance of such Debt Securities pursuant to this Indenture will materially or adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights,
duties or immunities under the Debt Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee.

 

Unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof, each Debt Security
shall be dated the date of its authentication.

 

Unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof,
no Debt Security 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 or its agent by manual or electronic signature, 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 and is entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Debt Security shall have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder to the Company, or any Person acting on its behalf, but shall never have been issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Debt Security to the Debt Security Registrar for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09 together
with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel) stating that such Debt Security 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 hereof.

 

    22

     

    

 

	Section 3.04.	
Temporary Debt Securities.

 

Pending the preparation
of definitive Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Debt Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise
produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Debt Securities in lieu of which they are
issued, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Debt Securities
may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Debt Securities; provided, however, that temporary Debt Securities
need not recite specific redemption, sinking fund, conversion or exchange provisions.

 

Unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, after the
preparation of definitive Debt Securities of such series or Tranche, the temporary Debt Securities of such series or Tranche shall
be exchangeable, without charge to the Holder thereof, for definitive Debt Securities of such series or Tranche, upon surrender
of such temporary Debt Securities at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 6.02 in a Place
of Payment for such Debt Securities. Upon such surrender of temporary Debt Securities, the Company shall, except as aforesaid,
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche,
of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

 

Until exchanged in full
as hereinabove provided, temporary Debt Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture
as definitive Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

	Section 3.05.	Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

 

The Company shall
cause to be kept in each office designated pursuant to Section 6.02, with respect to the Debt Securities of each
series or any Tranche thereof, a register (all registers kept in accordance with this Section being collectively
referred to as the “Debt Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Debt Securities of such series or Tranche and the registration
of transfer thereof. The Company shall designate one Person to maintain the Debt Security Register for the Debt Securities of
each series on a consolidated basis, and such Person is referred to herein, with respect to such series, as the
 “Debt Security Registrar.” Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may designate one
or more of its offices as an office in which the Debt Security Register shall be maintained, and the Company may designate
itself the Debt Security Registrar with respect to one or more of such series. The Debt Security Register shall be open for
inspection by the Trustee and the Company at all reasonable times.

 

    23

     

    

 

Except as otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Debt Security of such series or Tranche at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant
to Section 6.02 in a Place of Payment for such series or Tranche, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche,
of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

 

Except as otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, any Debt
Security of such series or Tranche may be exchanged at the option of the Holder for one or more new Debt Securities of the same
series and Tranche, of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Debt Securities
to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Debt Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Debt Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

All Debt Securities delivered
upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities shall be 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 Debt Security presented
or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee or the Debt Security
Registrar) be duly endorsed or shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the
Trustee or the Debt Security Registrar, as the case may be, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing.

 

Unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, 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 registration of transfer or exchange of
Debt Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 4.06 or 12.06 not involving any transfer.

 

The Company shall not
be required to execute or to provide for the registration of transfer of or the exchange of (a) Debt Securities of any series,
or any Tranche thereof, during a period of 15 days immediately preceding the day the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Debt
Securities of such series or Tranche is to be made or (b) any Debt Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except
the unredeemed portion of any Debt Security being redeemed in part.

 

None of the Company,
the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Debt 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.

 

    24

     

    

 

	Section 3.06.	Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Debt Securities.

 

If any mutilated Debt
Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor
a new Debt Security of the same series, and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

If there shall be delivered
to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the ownership of and the destruction, loss or theft of
any Debt Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to save each of them and any agent
of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Debt Security is held by a Person
purporting to be the owner of such Debt Security, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security, a new Debt Security of the same series and Tranche, and of like tenor
and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security 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.

 

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

 

Every new Debt Security
of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone other than the Holder of such new Debt Security, and any such new Debt Security shall be entitled to all
the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Debt Securities of such series duly issued hereunder.

 

The provisions of this
Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Securities.

 

	Section 3.07.	Payment of Interest and Additional Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

 

Unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, interest
and Additional Interest, if any, on any Debt Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Debt Security (or one or more Predecessor Debt Securities) is registered
at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

 

    25

     

    

 

 

Any interest on any Debt
Security of any series that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
 “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the related Regular Record Date by
virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided
in clause (a) or (b) below:

 

(a)              
The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Debt Securities of such
series (or their respective Predecessor Debt Securities) are registered at the close of business on a date (herein called a “Special
Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall
notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Debt Security of such series and
the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee
shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall promptly
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 Debt Securities of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Debt Security
Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the
Debt Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Debt Securities) are registered at the close of business on such
Special Record Date.

 

(b)               The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Debt Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Debt 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 and Section 3.05, 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 (including any Additional
Interest) accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Debt Security.

 

		Section 3.08.	Persons Deemed Owners.

 

Prior to due
presentment of a Debt Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Debt Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Debt Security for
the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07)
interest, if any, on such Debt Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Debt Security is overdue,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the

		Section 3.09.	Cancellation by Debt Security Registrar.

 

All Debt Securities surrendered
for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Debt Security
Registrar, be delivered to the Debt Security Registrar and, if not theretofore canceled, shall be promptly canceled by the Debt
Security Registrar. The Company may at any time deliver to the Debt Security Registrar for cancellation any Debt Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever or which the Company shall not
have issued and sold, and all Debt Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Debt Security Registrar. No Debt Securities
shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Debt Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All certificates representing canceled Debt Securities held by the Debt Security Registrar shall be
disposed of in accordance with the customary practices of the Debt Security Registrar at the time in effect, and the Debt Security
Registrar shall not be required to destroy any such certificates. The Debt Security Registrar, if other than the Trustee, shall
promptly deliver a certificate of disposition with respect to such disposed certificates to the Trustee and the Company unless,
by a Company Order, similarly delivered, the Company shall direct that canceled Debt Securities be returned to it. The Debt Security
Registrar shall promptly deliver evidence of any cancellation of a Debt Security in accordance with this Section to the Trustee
and the Company. If the Trustee is the entity acting as Debt Security Registrar, it shall promptly deliver to the Company a certificate
of disposition with respect to any certificates disposed of and/or evidence of any cancellation of a Debt Security, in each case
in accordance with this Section, if so requested by a Company Order.

 

		Section 3.10.	Computation of Interest.

 

Except as otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, interest on the Debt Securities
of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed within any month in relation to the deemed 30 days of such month.

 

		Section 3.11.	Payment to be in Proper Currency.

 

In the case of the
Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, denominated in any currency other than Dollars or in a composite
currency (the “Required Currency”), except as otherwise specified with respect to such Debt Securities as
contemplated by Section 3.01, the obligation of the Company to make any payment of the principal thereof, or the
premium or interest thereon, shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender by the Company, or recovery by the Trustee,
in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the
Trustee timely holding the full amount of the Required Currency then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a
currency other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may take such actions as it considers appropriate to exchange such
currency for the Required Currency. The costs and risks of any such exchange, including without limitation the risks of delay
and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by the Company, the Company shall remain fully liable for any shortfall or
delinquency in the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable, and in no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable
therefor except in the case of its negligence or willful misconduct.

ARTICLE IV

REDEMPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

 

		Section 4.01.	Applicability of Article.

 

Debt Securities of any
series, or any Tranche thereof, that are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms
and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche) in accordance
with this Article.

 

		Section 4.02.	Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

 

The election of the Company
to redeem any Debt Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution and/or an Officer’s Certificate. 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 in writing of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of such Debt Securities to be redeemed. In the
case of any redemption of Debt Securities (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms
of such Debt Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (b) pursuant to an election of the Company that is subject to a condition
specified in the terms of such Debt Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing
compliance with such restriction or condition.

 

		Section 4.03.	Selection of Debt Securities to be Redeemed.

 

If less than all the Debt
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, are to be redeemed, the particular Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected
by the Trustee from the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranche not previously called for redemption, by such method
as shall be provided for any particular series, or, in the absence of any such provision, by such method of random selection that
is in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary (or, in the case of definitive Debt Securities, pro rata) and which
may, in any case, provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Debt Securities of such series or Tranche
of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche; provided,
however, that if, as indicated in an Officer’s Certificate, the Company shall have offered to purchase all or any
principal amount of the Debt Securities then Outstanding of any series, or any Tranche thereof, and less than all of such Debt
Securities as to which such offer was made shall have been tendered to the Company for such purchase, the Trustee, if so directed
by Company Order, shall select for redemption all or any principal amount of such Debt Securities that have not been so tendered.

 

    28 

     

    

 

If the Debt Securities
are then held in the form of a Global Security, the Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected in accordance with the customary
procedures of the Depositary.

 

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 Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Debt Securities
that has been or is to be redeemed.

 

		Section 4.04.	Notice of Redemption.

 

Notice of redemption shall
be given in the manner provided in Section 1.06 to the Holders of the Debt Securities to be redeemed not less than
30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date.

 

All notices of redemption
shall state:

 

(a)              
 the Redemption Date,

 

(b)                the
Redemption Price,

 

(c)              
 if less than all the Debt Securities of any series or Tranche are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Debt
Securities to be redeemed and the portion of the principal amount of any Debt Security to be redeemed in part,

 

(d)                that
on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including Additional Interest), if any, to the Redemption
Date, will become due and payable upon each such Debt Security to be redeemed and, if applicable and provided that the Redemption
Price is received by the Paying Agent or Agents on or prior to the Redemption Date, that interest (including any Additional Interest)
thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(e)              
 the place or places where such Debt Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest,
if any, unless it shall have been specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Securities that
such surrender shall not be required,

 

(f)                 that
the redemption is for a sinking or other fund, if such is the case, and

 

(g)                such
other matters as the Company shall deem desirable or appropriate (including CUSIP numbers with respect to such Debt Securities,
if the Company shall so elect, in which event such notice of redemption may contain a disclaimer as to the correctness of such
numbers either as printed on the Debt Securities or on such notice of redemption).

 

Unless otherwise
specified with respect to any Debt Securities in accordance with Section 3.01, with respect to any notice of
redemption of Debt Securities at the election of the Company, unless, upon the giving of such notice, such Debt Securities
shall be deemed to have been paid in accordance with Section 7.01, such notice may state that such redemption
shall be conditional upon the receipt by the Paying Agent or Agents for such Debt Securities, on or prior to the date fixed
for such redemption, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, on such Debt Securities and that if such money shall not have been so received such notice shall be of no
force or effect and the Company shall not be required to redeem such Debt Securities. In the event that such notice of
redemption contains such a condition and such money is not so received, the redemption shall not be made and within a
reasonable time thereafter notice shall be given, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such money
was not so received and such redemption was not required to be made, and the Paying Agent or Agents for the Debt Securities
otherwise to have been redeemed shall promptly return to the Holders thereof any of such Debt Securities that had been
surrendered for payment upon such redemption.

 

    29 

     

    

 

Notice of redemption of
Debt Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company, and any notice of non-satisfaction of a condition for redemption
as aforesaid, shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Debt Security Registrar in the name and
at the expense of the Company. Notice of mandatory redemption of Debt Securities shall be given by the Debt Security Registrar
in the name and at the expense of the Company.

 

		Section 4.05.	Debt Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

 

Notice of redemption having
been given as aforesaid, and the conditions, if any, set forth in such notice having been satisfied, the Debt Securities or portions
thereof 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, in the case of an unconditional notice of redemption, the Company shall default in the payment
of the Redemption Price and accrued interest (including Additional Interest), if any) such Debt Securities or portions thereof,
if interest-bearing, shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Debt Security for redemption in accordance with such
notice, such Debt Security or portion thereof shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest
(including Additional Interest), if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that no such surrender shall
be a condition to such payment if so specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Security;
and provided, further, that except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect
to such Debt Security, any installment of interest on any Debt Security the Stated Maturity of which installment is on or prior
to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holder of such Debt Security, or one or more Predecessor Debt Securities, registered
as such at the close of business on the related Regular Record Date according to the terms of such Debt Security and subject to
the provisions of Section 3.07.

 

		Section 4.06.	Debt Securities Redeemed in Part.

 

Upon the surrender
of any Debt Security that is to be redeemed only in part at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee
so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Debt Security, without service charge, a new Debt Security or Debt Securities
of the same series and Tranche, of any authorized denomination requested by such Holder and of like tenor and in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Debt Security so
surrendered.

		Section 5.01.	Applicability of Article.

 

The provisions of this
Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof,
except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche.

 

The minimum amount
of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is herein referred
to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms
of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.”
If provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment
may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 5.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption
of Debt Securities of the series or Tranche in respect of which it was made as provided for by the terms of such Debt Securities.

 

		Section 5.02.	Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Debt Securities.

 

The Company (a) may
deliver to the Trustee Outstanding Debt Securities (other than any previously called for redemption) of a series or Tranche in
respect of which a mandatory sinking fund payment is to be made and (b) may apply as a credit Debt Securities of such series or
Tranche that have been purchased by the Company or redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such
Debt Securities or 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 such mandatory sinking fund payment; provided, however, that no
Debt Securities shall be applied in satisfaction of a mandatory sinking fund payment if such Debt Securities shall have been previously
so applied. Debt Securities so applied 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 mandatory sinking fund payment
shall be reduced accordingly.

 

		Section 5.03.	Redemption of Debt Securities for Sinking Fund.

 

Not less than 45 days
prior to each sinking fund payment date for the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying:

 

(a)              
the amount of the next succeeding mandatory sinking fund payment for such series or Tranche;

 

(b)               the amount, if any, of the optional sinking fund payment to be made together with such mandatory sinking fund payment;

 

    31 

     

    

 

(c)              
 the aggregate sinking fund payment;

 

(d)              
the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment that is to be satisfied by the payment of cash; and

 

(e)              
the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche pursuant to Section 5.02 and stating the basis for such credit and that such Debt Securities
have not previously been so credited, and, if it has not already done so, the Company shall also deliver to the Trustee any Debt
Securities to be so delivered.

 

If the Company shall
not have delivered such Officer’s Certificate and, to the extent applicable, all such Debt Securities, on or prior to the
45th day prior to such sinking fund payment date, the sinking fund payment for such series or Tranche in respect of such sinking
fund payment date shall be made entirely in cash in the amount of the mandatory sinking fund payment. Not less than 30 days before
each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Debt Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment
date in the manner specified in Section 4.03 and the Debt Security Registrar shall cause notice of the redemption thereof
to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 4.04. Such notice having
been duly given, the redemption of such Debt Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 4.05
and 4.06.

The Company shall maintain
in each Place of Payment for the Debt Securities of each series, or any Tranche thereof, an office or agency where payment of such
Debt Securities shall be made, where the registration of transfer or exchange of such Debt Securities may be effected and where
notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of such Debt Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall
give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of each such office or agency and prompt
notice to the Holders of any such change in the manner specified in Section 1.06. If at any time the Company shall
fail to maintain any such required office or agency in respect of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, or shall
fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, payment of such Debt Securities shall be made, registration of transfer or
exchange thereof may be effected and notices and demands in respect thereof may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the

The Company may also from
time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, or any
Tranche thereof, for any or all of the foregoing purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided,
however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain
an office or agency for such purposes in each Place of Payment for such Debt Securities in accordance with the requirements set
forth above. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee, and prompt notice to the Holders in the manner specified
in Section 1.06, of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or

Debt Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal
and premium or interest (including Additional Interest) so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any failure by the Company (or any other obligor
on such Debt Securities) to make any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest), if
any, on such Debt Securities.

 

Whenever the Company shall
have one or more Paying Agents for the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, it shall, on or before each due date
of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on such Debt Securities, deposit

Interest) so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest
(including Additional Interest), and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of
any failure by it so to act.

 

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

 

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

 

    33 

     

    

 

(b)              
 give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or any other obligor upon such Debt Securities) to make any payment
of principal of or premium, if any, or interest, (including Additional Interest) if any, on such Debt Securities; and

 

(c)              
at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee
all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent and furnish to the Trustee such information as it possesses regarding the names
and addresses of the Persons entitled to such sums.

 

The Company may at any
time 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, if so stated in a Company Order delivered to the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of Article VII;
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 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 (including Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal
and premium, if any, or interest (including Additional 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, upon such payment or discharge, the Holder
of such Debt Security shall, as an unsecured general creditor and not as a Holder of an Outstanding Debt Security, look only to
the Company for payment of the amount so due and payable and remaining unpaid, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such payment to the Company, may at the
expense of the Company cause to be mailed, on one occasion only, notice to such Holder 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 mailing, any unclaimed balance of such

useful in the conduct of its business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and shall cause

that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted; provided, however, that nothing
in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing, or causing the discontinuance of, the operation and

in principal amount of Debt Securities Outstanding under this Indenture shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance
in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition; but, in the case of (a) or (b), no such
waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver
shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or
condition shall remain in full force and effect.

shall not have been delivered, such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid for all
purposes of this Indenture, and the Holders of such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall nevertheless be no longer entitled
to the benefits of this Indenture or of any of the covenants of the Company under Article VI (except the covenants
contained in Sections 6.02 and 6.03) or any other covenants made in respect of such Debt Securities or portions thereof
as contemplated by Section 3.01, but the indebtedness of the Company in respect of such Debt Securities or portions
thereof shall not be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged prior to Maturity for any other purpose, and the Holders of such
Debt Securities or portions thereof shall continue to be entitled to look to the Company for payment of the indebtedness represented
thereby; and, upon receipt of a Company Request, the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such Debt Securities or portions
thereof are deemed to have been paid for all purposes of this Indenture.

 

If payment at Stated Maturity
of less than all of the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is to be provided for in the manner and with the
effect provided in this Section, the Trustee shall select such Debt Securities, or portions of principal amount thereof, in the
manner specified by Section 4.03 for selection for redemption of less than all the Debt Securities of a series or Tranche.

 

In the event that Debt
Securities that shall be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture, and, if such is the case, in respect of which
the Company’s indebtedness shall have been satisfied and discharged, all as provided in this Section, do not mature and are
not to be redeemed within the 60 day period commencing with the date of the deposit of moneys or Eligible Obligations, as aforesaid,
the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, give a notice, in the same manner as a notice of redemption with respect to such
Debt Securities, to the Holders of such Debt Securities to the effect that such deposit has been made and the effect thereof.

 

Notwithstanding that any
Debt Securities shall be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture, as aforesaid, the obligations of the Company
and the Trustee in respect of such Debt Securities under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 4.04, 5.03
(as to notice of redemption), 6.02, 6.03, 9.07, 9.14 and 9.15 and this Article shall survive.

 

The Company shall pay,
and shall indemnify the Trustee or any Paying Agent with which Eligible Obligations shall have been deposited as provided in this
Section against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against such Eligible Obligations or the principal or
interest received in respect of such Eligible Obligations, including, but not limited to, any such tax payable by any entity deemed,
for tax purposes, to have been created as a result of such deposit.

 

    37 

     

    

 

Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, (a) if, at any time after a Debt Security would be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture,
and, if such is the case, the Company’s indebtedness in respect thereof would be deemed to have been satisfied or discharged,
pursuant to this Section (without regard to the provisions of this paragraph), the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case
may be, shall be required to return the money or Eligible Obligations, or combination thereof, deposited with it as aforesaid to
the Company or its representative under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, such Debt
Security shall thereupon be deemed retroactively not to have been paid and any satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s
indebtedness in respect thereof shall retroactively be deemed not to have been effected, and such Debt Security shall be deemed
to remain Outstanding and (b) any satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s indebtedness in respect of any Debt Security
shall be subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 6.03.

 

 Section 7.02.                              Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

 

This Indenture shall upon
Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as hereinafter expressly provided), and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

 

(a)              
no Debt Securities remain Outstanding hereunder; and

 

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

 

provided, however, that if,
in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 7.01, any Debt Security, previously deemed to have been paid for purposes
of this Indenture, shall be deemed retroactively not to have been so paid, this Indenture shall thereupon be deemed retroactively
not to have been satisfied and discharged, as aforesaid, and to remain in full force and effect, and the Company shall execute
and deliver such instruments as the Trustee shall reasonably request to evidence and acknowledge the same.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture as aforesaid, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee under Sections 3.04, 3.05,
3.06, 4.04, 5.03 (as to notice of redemption), 6.02, 6.03, 9.07, 9.14 and 9.15
and this Article shall survive.

 

Upon satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture as provided in this Section, the Trustee shall assign, transfer and turn over to the Company, subject
to the lien provided by Section 9.07, any and all money, securities and other property then held by the Trustee for
the benefit of the Holders of the Debt Securities other than money and Eligible Obligations held by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.03.

 

 Section 7.03.                              Application of Trust Money.

 

Neither the Eligible
Obligations nor the money deposited pursuant to Section 7.01, nor the principal or interest payments on any such
Eligible Obligations, shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose other than, and shall be held in trust for, the payment of
the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on, the Debt Securities or
portions of principal amount thereof in respect of which such deposit was made, all subject, however, to the provisions of Section 6.03; provided, however,
that, so long as there shall not have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default, any cash received from such principal or interest payments
on such Eligible Obligations, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable, be invested in Eligible
Obligations of the type described in Section 7.01(b) maturing at such times and in such amounts as shall be
sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, due
and to become due on such Debt Securities or portions thereof on and prior to the Maturity thereof, and interest earned from
such reinvestment shall be paid over to the Company as received, free and clear of any trust, lien or pledge under this
Indenture except the lien provided by Section 9.07; and provided, further, that, so long as there
shall not have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of
time, would become an Event of Default, any moneys held in accordance with this Section on the Maturity of all such Debt
Securities in excess of the amount required to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, then due on such Debt Securities shall be paid over to the Company free and clear of any trust, lien or
pledge under this Indenture except the lien provided by Section 9.07; and provided, further, that
if an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default,
shall have occurred and be continuing, moneys to be paid over to the Company pursuant to this Section shall be held
until such Event of Default, or event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of
Default, shall have been waived or cured.

or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 33% 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, unless the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Holders of a principal amount of
Debt Securities of such series not less than the principal amount of Debt Securities the Holders of which gave such notice,
as the case may be, shall agree in writing to an extension of such period prior to its expiration; provided, however,
that the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Holders of such principal amount of Debt Securities of such series, as the case may
be, shall be deemed to have agreed to an extension of such period for a maximum of one hundred twenty (120) days if
corrective action is initiated by the Company within such period and is being diligently pursued; or

 

    39 

     

    

 

(e)              
the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (1) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in
an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
law or (2) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition by one or
more Persons other than the Company seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company
under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or
other similar official for the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of

or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable

receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property,
or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its
debts generally as they become due, or the authorization of such action by the Board of Trustees; or

 

(g)

 Section 8.02.                              Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

 

If an Event of
Default due to the default in payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest) on,
any series of Debt Securities or due to the default in the performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty of the
Company applicable to the Debt Securities of such series but not applicable to all Outstanding Debt Securities shall have
occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the Debt Securities
of such series may then declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Debt Securities of such series are Discount Debt
Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms thereof as contemplated by Section 3.01)
of all Debt Securities of such series and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest) accrued thereon to be
due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). If an Event
of Default due to default in the performance of any other of the covenants or warranties herein applicable to all Outstanding
Debt Securities or an Event of Default specified in Sections 8.01(e) or (f) shall have occurred and be
continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of all Debt Securities then
Outstanding (considered as one class), and not the Holders of the Debt Securities of any one of such series, may declare the
principal amount (or, if any of the Debt Securities are Discount Debt Securities, such portion of the principal amount of
such Debt Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof as contemplated by Section 3.01) of all Debt
Securities and premium, if any, and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). As a consequence of each such declaration (herein referred to as a
declaration of acceleration) with respect to Debt Securities of any series, the principal amount (or portion thereof in the
case of Discount Debt Securities) of such Debt Securities, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest)
accrued thereon shall become due and payable immediately.

 

    40 

     

    

 

With respect to a series
of Debt Securities to which a credit enhancement is applicable, the applicable supplemental indenture may provide that the provider
of such credit enhancement may, if default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such series, and subject to certain conditions,
have all the rights with respect to remedies that would otherwise have been exercisable by the Holders of Debt Securities of that
series.

 

At any time after such
a declaration of acceleration with respect to Debt Securities of any series shall have been made and before a judgment or decree
for payment of the money due shall have been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Event or
Events of Default giving rise to such declaration of acceleration shall, without further act, be deemed to have been waived, and
such declaration and its consequences shall, without further act, be deemed to have been rescinded and annulled, if

 

(a)              
the Company shall have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

 

(1)              
all overdue interest on all Debt Securities of such series;

 

(2)              
the principal of and premium, if any, on any Debt Securities of such series that have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest (including Additional Interest) thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Debt Securities;

 

(3)              
to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in such Debt Securities;

 

(4)              
all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.07; and

 

(b)              
any other Event or Events of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal
of Debt Securities of such series that shall have become due solely by reason of such declaration of acceleration, shall have been
cured or waived as provided in Section 8.13.

 

    41 

     

    

 

No such rescission shall
affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

 Section 8.03.                              Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 

If an Event of Default
described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 8.01 shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, upon
demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of the Debt Securities of the series with respect to which such
Event of Default shall have occurred, the whole amount then due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal and premium,
if any, and interest, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, (i) interest on premium, if any, (ii) interest on any overdue
principal and (iii) Additional 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 any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.07.

 

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

 

If an Event of Default
with respect to Debt Securities of any series shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 under the Indenture 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 8.04.                              Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

 

In case of the pendency
of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities or the property of the Company or of such other
obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the 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 (including Additional Interest)) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise,

 

(a)              
to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest),
if any, owing and unpaid in respect of the Debt Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable
in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.07)
and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

 

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

 

    42 

     

    

 

and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly
to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amounts due it under Section 9.07.

 

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 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 8.05.                              Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Debt Securities.

 

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

 

 Section 8.06.                              Application of Money Collected.

 

Any money collected by
the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and,
in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest),
if any, upon presentation of the Debt Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money shall have been collected
and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

 

FIRST: To the payment
of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.07;

 

SECOND: To the payment
of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Debt Securities for principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest
(including Additional Interest), if any, respectively; and

 

THIRD: To the payment
of the remainder, if any, to the Company, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct.

 

    43 

     

    

 

 Section 8.07.                              Limitation on Suits.

 

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

 

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

 

(b)              
the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series in
respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, considered as one class, shall have made written request
to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

 

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

 

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

 

(e)              
no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series in respect of which an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, considered as one class;

 

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

 

 Section 8.08.                              Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

 

Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Debt Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.07) interest (including Additional Interest),
if any, on such Debt Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

 

 Section 8.09.                              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 shall have been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case,
subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, Trustee and such Holder shall be restored severally and respectively
to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and such Holder shall continue as though
no such proceeding had been instituted.

 

    44 

     

    

 

 Section 8.10.                              Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

 

Except as otherwise provided
in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, 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 8.11.                              Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

 

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

 

 Section 8.12.                              Control by Holders of Debt Securities.

 

If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing in respect of a series of Debt Securities, the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Debt Securities
of such series; provided, however, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect
to more than one series of Debt Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities
of all such series, considered as one class, shall have the right to make such direction, and not the Holders of the Debt Securities
of any one of such series; and provided, further, that

 

(a)              
such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and may not involve the Trustee in
personal liability in circumstances where indemnity would not in the Trustee’s reasonable discretion be adequate, and

 

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

 

Before proceeding to exercise
any right or power hereunder at the direction of such Holders, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive from such Holders reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with any such direction.

 

 Section 8.13.                              Waiver of Past Defaults.

 

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 such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default

 

    45 

     

    

 

(a)              
 in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt
Security of such series, or

 

(b)              
in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section 12.02 cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Debt Security of such series affected.

 

Upon any such waiver,
such default shall cease to exist, and any and all Events 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 8.14.                     Undertaking
for Costs.

 

The Company and the Trustee
agree, and each Holder 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 Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee,
to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount
of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series in respect of which such suit may be brought, considered as one class, or to any
suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including
Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security
(or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

 

Section 8.15.                     Waiver
of Stay or Extension Laws.

 

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

ARTICLE IX

THE TRUSTEE

 

 Section 9.01.                     Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

 

(a)              
The Trustee shall have and be subject to all the duties and responsibilities specified with respect to an indenture trustee
in the Trust Indenture Act, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.

 

(b)              
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that
may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case
an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has knowledge has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise,
as a prudent 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 prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after
the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred

 

(i)                
the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of, or failure to perform, such duties and obligations as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

 

(ii)             
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements
and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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 that by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

 

(d)              
The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of Debt Securities pursuant to Section 8.12, relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
under this Indenture.

 

(e)              
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 it is not reasonably assured of receiving (i) repayment of such funds or (ii) indemnity,
in an amount deemed adequate to the Trustee in its reasonable judgment, against such risk or liability.

 

    47 

     

    

 

(f)               
 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the duties and responsibilities of the Trustee under
this Indenture shall be subject to the protections, exculpations and limitations on liability afforded to the Trustee under the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, including those provisions of such Act deemed by such Act to be included herein.

 

(g)              
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 9.02.                     Notice of Defaults.

 

The Trustee shall give
the Holders notice of any default hereunder with respect to the Debt Securities of any series to the Holders of Debt Securities
of such series of which it has knowledge (within the meaning of Section 9.03(h)) in the manner and to the extent required
to do so by the Trust Indenture Act, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that
in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 8.01(d), no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any
event that is, or after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, an Event of Default.

 

 Section 9.03.                     Certain Rights of Trustee.

 

Subject to the provisions
of Section 9.01 and to the applicable provisions of the Trust Indenture Act:

 

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

 

(b)              
any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company
Order, or as otherwise expressly provided herein, and any resolution of the Board of Trustees may be sufficiently evidenced by
a Board Resolution;

 

(c)              
whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established

may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate;

 

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

 

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

 

    48 

     

    

 

(f)               
the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness
or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts
or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall (subject
to applicable legal requirements) be entitled to examine, during normal business hours, the books, records and premises of the
Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

 

(g)              
the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney
appointed with due care by it hereunder; and

 

(h)              
the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
any series for which it is acting as Trustee unless either (1) in the case of a default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(b),
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have knowledge of the default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such default
or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company, any other obligor on such Debt Securities or by any Holder
of such Debt Securities.

 

(i)               
The permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty unless so
specified herein.

 

(j)               
In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, consequential loss, or punitive damages or
damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised
of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 

(k)              
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right
to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent,
custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

 

(l)               
The Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved
that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

 

(m)              The
Company agrees that (i) if reasonably requested by The Bank of New York Mellon in any of its capacities hereunder (for
purposes of this paragraph, “Trustee”) and required by Sections 1471-1474 of the Code or regulations
promulgated thereunder, including applicable intergovernmental agreements promulgated thereunder, if any
(“FATCA”), in relation to a payment made under the Indenture and the Notes issued thereunder, the Company
will provide such information if and to the extent that (A) such information is reasonably necessary for the Trustee to
determine that it is in compliance with FATCA as relates to the payments made under the Indenture and the Notes issued
thereunder and (B) such information is reasonably available to the Company with regard to the Company and its subsidiaries in
relation to the requirements of FATCA that are actually imposed upon such requesting Trustee; provided however that the
Company and its subsidiaries shall not be required to provide information which it is prohibited legally from disclosing and
(ii) the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments to the extent necessary to comply with
FATCA for which the Trustee shall have no liability and shall have no obligation to gross-up any payment under this Indenture
or to pay any additional amount as a result of such FATCA withholding tax.

 

    49 

     

    

 

(n)              
To help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Trustee will obtain, verify, and record information
that identifies individuals or entities that establish a relationship or open an account with the Trustee. The Trustee will ask
for the name, address, tax identification number and other information that will allow the Trustee to identify the individual or
entity who is establishing the relationship or opening the account. The Trustee may also ask for formation documents such as articles
of incorporation, an offering memorandum, or other identifying documents to be provided.

 

(o)              
The Trustee shall accept electronic transmissions; provided that the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to verify
or confirm that the Person sending instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information by electronic
transmission is, in fact, a Person authorized to give such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or
information on behalf of the party purporting to send such electronic transmission; and the Trustee shall not have any liability
for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by any party as a result of such reliance upon or compliance
with such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information. Each other party to this Indenture
agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of electronic methods to submit instructions, directions, reports, notices or
other communications or information to the Trustee, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized
instructions, notices, reports or other communications or information, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

 

 Section 9.04.                     Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Debt Securities.

 

The recitals contained
herein and in the Debt Securities (except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication) shall be taken as the statements
of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee
makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities. Neither the Trustee nor
any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Debt Securities or the proceeds thereof.
The Trustee shall not incur any liability for non-performance or breach of any obligation hereunder to the extent that the Trustee
is delayed in performing, unable to perform or breaches such obligation because of acts of God, war, terrorism, fire, floods, electrical
outages or other causes reasonably beyond its control; provided, however, that the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable
efforts consistent with accepted practices for corporate trustees to maintain performance without delay or resume performance as
soon as reasonably practicable under the circumstances.

 

    50 

     

    

 

Section 9.05.                     May
Hold Debt Securities.

 

Each of the Trustee, any
Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Debt Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any
other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Debt Securities and, subject to Sections 9.08 and 9.13, may otherwise
deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Debt Security
Registrar or such other agent.

 

 Section 9.06.                     Money Held in Trust.

 

Money held by the Trustee
in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no
liability for interest on investment of any money received by it hereunder except as expressly provided herein or otherwise agreed
with, and for the sole benefit of, the Company.

 

 Section 9.07.                     Compensation and Reimbursement.

 

The Company shall

 

(a)              
pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation
shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

 

(b)              
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture, including the costs
of collection (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except to the
extent that any such expense, disbursement or advance may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith; and

 

(c)              
indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless from and against any and all losses, demands, claims, liabilities, causes of
action or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder, including the reasonable
costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
its powers or duties hereunder (regardless of whether such claim is brought by the Company, a Holder or any other Person), except
to the extent any such loss, demand, claim, liability, cause of action or expense may be attributable to its negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith and may assume the defense of the Trustee with counsel acceptable to the Trustee, unless the Trustee shall
have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional
to those available to the Company, in which case the Trustee may engage separate counsel, and the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be assumed by the Company.

 

    51 

     

    

 

As security for the
performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Debt Securities
upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such other than property and funds held in trust for the
payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on Debt Securities. “Trustee” for purposes of this
Section shall include any predecessor Trustee; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct
or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder. When a Trustee incurs
expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Sections 8.01(e) or (f),
the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law. The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal
of the Trustee.

 

 Section 9.08.                     Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

 

If the Trustee shall have
or acquire any conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, it shall either eliminate such conflicting interest
or resign to the extent, in the manner and with the effect, and subject to the conditions, provided in the Trust Indenture Act
and this Indenture. For purposes of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act and to the extent permitted thereby, the
Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a Trustee under (i) this Indenture with respect to
Debt Securities of one or more series or (ii) any other indenture to which the Trustee and the Company are a party, if any, or
with respect to the securities issued thereunder, if any.

 

 Section 9.09.                     Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

 

There shall at all times
be a Trustee hereunder which shall be

 

(a)              
a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District
of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000
and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, or

 

(b)              
if and to the extent permitted by the Commission by rule, regulation or order upon application, a corporation or other Person
organized and doing business under the laws of a foreign government, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 or the Dollar equivalent of the applicable foreign currency and
subject to supervision or examination by authority of such foreign government or a political subdivision thereof substantially
equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to United States institutional trustees,

 

and, in either case, qualified
and eligible under this Article and the Trust Indenture Act. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of such 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. 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.

 

    52 

     

    

 

Section 9.10.                     Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)              
No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 9.11.

 

(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 the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 9.11 shall not have been
delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series.

 

(c)              
The Trustee may be removed at any time upon 30 days’ notice 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 fail to comply with Section 9.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder
who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months, or

 

(2)              
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 9.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor
by the Company or by any such Holder, or

 

(3)              
the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or
of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs
for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

 

then, in any such case, (x) the Company by
a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Debt Securities or (y) subject to Section 8.14, any Holder
who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Debt Securities and the appointment of a successor
Trustee or Trustees.

 

(e)               If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for
any cause (other than as contemplated in clause (y) in Subsection (d) of this Section), with respect to the Debt
Securities of 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 9.11. 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 delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 9.11, 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 appointment in the
manner required by Section 9.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of such series for
at least six months may, on behalf of itself 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.

 

    53 

     

    

 

(f)               
So long as no event that is, or after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, and except with respect to a Trustee appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Debt Securities pursuant to Subsection (e) of this Section, if the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee
(i) a Board Resolution appointing a successor Trustee, effective as of a date specified therein, and (ii) an instrument of acceptance
of such appointment, effective as of such date, by such successor Trustee in accordance with Section 9.11, the Trustee
shall be deemed to have resigned as contemplated in Subsection (b) of this Section, the successor Trustee shall be deemed
to have been appointed by the Company pursuant to Subsection (e) of this Section and such appointment shall be deemed
to have been accepted as contemplated in Section 9.11, all as of such date, and all other provisions of this Section and
Section 9.11 shall be applicable to such resignation, appointment and acceptance except to the extent inconsistent
with this Subsection (f).

 

(g)              
The Company or, should the Company fail so to act promptly, the successor Trustee, at the expense of 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 all Holders of Debt Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Debt Security
Register. 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 9.11.                     Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

 

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

 

    54 

     

    

 

(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 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 request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of all sums owed to it, shall duly
assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all 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 instruments that fully vest in and confirm to
such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in Subsection (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 9.12.                     Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

Any corporation into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified
and eligible under this Article, without the execution 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.

 

    55 

     

    

 

 

Section
9.13.                   Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

 

If
the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities (other than by reason of
a relationship described in Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture Act), the Trustee shall be subject to any and all applicable

 Section 9.14.                   Co-Trustees and Separate Trustees.

 

At any time or times,
for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, the Company and the Trustee shall have power
to appoint, and, upon the written request of the Trustee or of the Holders of at least 33% in principal amount of the Debt Securities
then Outstanding, the Company shall for such purpose join with the Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and
agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with
the Trustee, or to act as separate trustee, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment,
and to vest in such Person or Persons, in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable,
subject to the other provisions of this Section. If the Company does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt
by it of a request so to do, or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have power
to make such appointment.

 

Should any written instrument
or instruments from the Company be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed to more fully confirm to such co-trustee
or separate trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged
and delivered by the Company.

 

Every co-trustee or separate
trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following conditions:

 

(a)               the
Debt Securities shall be authenticated and delivered, and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect of
the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee
hereunder, shall be exercised solely, by the Trustee;

 

    56 

     

    

 

(b)              
the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered
by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed either by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such
co-trustee or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee,
except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and
performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee;

 

(c)              
the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Company, may accept the
resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate
trustee without the concurrence of the Company. Upon the written request of the Trustee, the Company shall join with the Trustee
in the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal.
A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section;

 

(d)              
no co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee,
or any other such trustee hereunder, and the Trustee shall have no liability, personally or in its capacity as Trustee, for any
act or omission of any co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder; and

 

(e)              
any Act of Holders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate
trustee.

 

 Section 9.15.                    Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

 

The Trustee may
appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof,
which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Debt Securities of such series or Tranche issued
upon original issuance, exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06,
and Debt Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory
for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Debt Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such
reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall
be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the
United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, authorized
under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

 

    57 

     

    

 

Any corporation into which
an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate
agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation
shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

 

An Authenticating Agent
may resign at any time by giving 45 days written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company.
Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent
that shall be acceptable to the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

 

The Company agrees to
pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

 

The provisions of Sections
3.08, 9.04 and 9.05 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.

 

If an appointment with
respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof, shall be made pursuant to this Section, the Debt
Securities of such series or Tranche may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication,
an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

 

    58 

     

    

 

This is one of the Debt
Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 

	Date:	By:	 
	 	 	As Trustee
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 
	 	 	As Authenticating Agent
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 
	 	 	Authorized Signatory

 

If all of the Debt Securities
of a series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Debt
Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Debt Securities of such series
authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing (which writing need not comply with
Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), shall appoint, in accordance with this Section and
in accordance with such procedures as shall be acceptable to the Trustee, an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of
Payment designated by the Company with respect to such series of Debt Securities.

including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively
on Officer’s Certificates).

any such amendment shall require one or more changes to any provisions hereof or the inclusion herein of any additional provisions,
or shall by operation of law be deemed to effect such changes or incorporate such provisions by reference or otherwise, this Indenture

Section 12.02.                 Supplemental
Indentures With Consent of Holders.

 

With the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of all series then Outstanding under this
Indenture, considered as one class, 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; provided, however,
that if there shall be Debt Securities of more than one series Outstanding hereunder and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall
directly affect the rights of the Holders of Debt Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the consent
only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series so directly affected,
considered as one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that if the Debt Securities of any series shall have
been issued in more than one Tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders
of Debt Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such Tranches, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all Tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required;
and provided, further, that no such supplemental indenture shall:

 

(a)              
change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest (including Additional Interest)
on any Debt Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon (or the amount of any installment
of interest thereon) or change the method of calculating such rate or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or
reduce the amount of the principal of a Discount Debt Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration
of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 8.02, or change the coin or currency (or other property) in which any Debt
Security or any premium or the interest (including Additional Interest) thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity of any Debt Security (or, in the case of redemption, on
or after the Redemption Date), without, in any such case, the consent of the Holder of such Debt Security, or

 

(b)              
reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series or any Tranche thereof, the consent
of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for
any waiver of compliance with any provision of this Indenture or of any default hereunder and its consequences, or reduce the requirements
of Section 13.04 for quorum or voting, without, in any such case, the consent of the Holders of each Outstanding Debt
Security of such series or Tranche, or

 

    63 

     

    

 

(c)              
 modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 6.07 or Section 8.13 with respect to the Debt
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof (except to increase the percentages in principal amount referred to in this Section or
such other Sections or to provide that 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, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 9.11(b), 9.14 and 12.01(h).

 

A supplemental indenture
that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture that has expressly been included solely for the benefit
of one or more particular series of Debt Securities, or of one or more Tranches thereof, or that modifies the rights of the Holders
of Debt Securities of such series or Tranches 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 or Tranche.

 

Upon the request of the
Company, accompanied by a copy of the Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, compliance
by the Company with Section 12.03 hereof, and the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders
of the Debt Securities required hereunder with respect to the proposed supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall join with the
Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless the supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights,
duties or immunities under this Indenture, or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be obligated
to enter into such supplemental indenture.

 

It shall not be necessary
for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall
be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. A waiver by a Holder of such Holder’s right to consent under
this Section shall be deemed to be a consent of such Holder.

 

 Section 12.03.                 Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

 

In executing, or accepting
the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the
trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided and (subject to Section 9.01) shall be fully protected
in relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

 

Section 12.04.                 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 shall be bound thereby. Any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article may restate this Indenture
in its entirety, and, upon the execution and delivery thereof, any such restatement shall supersede this Indenture as theretofore
in effect for all purposes.

 

    64 

     

    

 

Section 12.05.                 Conformity With Trust
Indenture Act.

  

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

 

Section 12.06.                 Reference in Debt Securities
to Supplemental Indentures.

 

Debt Securities of any
series, or any Tranche thereof, 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, or any Tranche thereof,
so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Debt Securities of such series
or Tranche.

 

 Section 12.07.                 Modification
without Supplemental Indenture.

 

If the terms of any particular
series of Debt Securities shall have been established in a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to a Board
Resolution as contemplated by Section 3.01, and not in an indenture supplemental hereto, additions to, changes in or
the elimination of any of such terms may be effected by means of a supplemental Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate,
as the case may be, delivered to, and accepted by, the Trustee; provided, however, that such supplemental Board Resolution
or Officer’s Certificate shall not be accepted by the Trustee or otherwise be effective unless all conditions set forth in
this Indenture that would be required to be satisfied if such additions, changes or elimination were contained in a supplemental
indenture shall have been appropriately satisfied. Upon the acceptance thereof by the Trustee, any such supplemental Board Resolution
or Officer’s Certificate shall be deemed to be a “supplemental indenture” for purposes of Sections 12.04
and 12.06.

herein, then the Company or the Holders of Debt Securities of such series and Tranches in the amount above specified, as the case
may be, may determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or in such other place as shall
be determined or approved by the Company, for such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof

(c)              
Any meeting of Holders of Debt Securities of one or more, or all, series, or any Tranche or Tranches thereof, shall be valid
without notice if the Holders of all Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranches are present in person or by proxy and
if representatives of the Company and the Trustee are present, or if notice is waived in writing before or after the meeting by
the Holders of all Outstanding Debt Securities of such series, or by such of them as are not present at the meeting in person or
by proxy, and by the Company and the Trustee.

 

		Section 13.03.	Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings.

 

To be entitled to vote
at any meeting of Holders of Debt Securities of one or more, or all, series, or any Tranche or Tranches thereof, a Person shall
be (a) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranches, or (b) a Person appointed by an instrument
in writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranches by such Holder
or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to attend any meeting of Holders of Debt Securities of any series or Tranche

		Section 13.04.	Quorum; Action.

 

The Persons entitled
to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of the series and Tranches with respect
to which a meeting shall have been called as hereinbefore provided, considered as one class, shall constitute a quorum for a
meeting of Holders of Debt Securities of such series and Tranches; provided, however, that if any action is to be
taken at such meeting that this Indenture expressly provides may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage, which is
less than a majority, in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series and Tranches, considered as one
class, the Persons entitled to vote such specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such
series and Tranches, considered as one class, shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within one hour of the
time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of Holders of Debt Securities of such
series and Tranches, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for such period as may be determined by the
chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting,
such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for such period as may be determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to
the adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Except as provided by Section 13.05(e), notice of the reconvening of
any meeting adjourned for more than 30 days shall be given as provided in Section 13.02(a) not less than ten days
prior to the date on which the meeting is scheduled to be reconvened. Notice of the reconvening of an adjourned meeting shall
state expressly the percentage, as provided above, of the principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series
and Tranches that shall constitute a quorum.

 

    66 

     

    

 

Except as limited by Section 12.02,
any resolution presented to a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present as aforesaid may be adopted
only by the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of the
series and Tranches with respect to which such meeting shall have been called, considered as one class; provided, however,
that, except as so limited, any resolution with respect to any action that this Indenture expressly provides may be taken by the
Holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such
series and Tranches, considered as one class, may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which
a quorum is present as aforesaid by the affirmative vote of the Holders of such specified percentage in principal amount of the
Outstanding Debt Securities of such series and Tranches, considered as one class.

 

Any resolution passed
or decision taken at any meeting of Holders of Debt Securities duly held in accordance with this Section shall be binding
on all the Holders of Debt Securities of the series and Tranches with respect to which such meeting shall have been held, whether
or not present or represented at the meeting.

 

		Section 13.05.	Attendance at Meetings; Determination of Voting Rights;
Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings.

 

(a)              
Attendance at meetings of Holders of Debt Securities may be in person or by proxy; and, to the extent permitted by law,
any such proxy shall remain in effect and be binding upon any future Holder of the Debt Securities with respect to which it was
given unless and until specifically revoked by the Holder or future Holder of such Debt Securities before being voted.

 

(b)               Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any
meeting of Holders of Debt Securities in regard to proof of the holding of such Debt Securities and of the appointment of
proxies and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies,
certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it
shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Debt Securities
shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.04 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the
manner specified in Section 1.04. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies,
regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.04 or other
proof.

 

    67 

     

    

 

(c)              
The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have
been called by the Company or by Holders as provided in Section 13.02(b), in which case the Company or the Holders of Debt
Securities of the series and Tranches calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chairman.
A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series and Tranches represented at the meeting, considered
as one class.

 

(d)              
At any meeting each Holder or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1 principal amount of Debt Securities held or
represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Debt Security
challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall
have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Debt Security or proxy.

 

(e)              
Any meeting duly called pursuant to Section 13.02 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to
time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series and
Tranches represented at the meeting, considered as one class; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

 

		Section 13.06.	Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings.

 

The vote upon any resolution
submitted to any meeting of Holders shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the Holders or of
their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding Debt Securities, of the series and
Tranches with respect to which the meeting shall have been called, held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting
shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall
make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports of all votes cast at the meeting. A record of the
proceedings of each meeting of Holders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record
the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having
knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in
Section 13.02 and, if applicable, Section 13.04. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits
of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to the Company, and another to the
Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed
and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

 

		Section 13.07.	Action Without Meeting.

 

In lieu of a vote of Holders
at a meeting as hereinbefore contemplated in this Article, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action may be made, given or taken by Holders by written instruments as provided in Section 1.04.

for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion

Every certificate or opinion with respect
to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

Any certificate or opinion of an officer
of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel,

with respect to the matters upon which such officer’s certificate or opinion are based are erroneous. Any such certificate
or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations
by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession

representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

 

Where any Person is required to make, give
or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture,

therefor in corrected form with the same force and effect as if originally filed in the corrected form and, irrespective of the
date or dates of the actual execution and/or delivery thereof, such substitute document or instrument shall be deemed to have been
executed and/or delivered as of the date or dates required with respect to the document or instrument for which it is substituted.
Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, if any such corrective document or instrument indicates that action
has been taken by or at the request of the Company which could not have been taken had the original document or instrument not
contained such error or omission, the action so taken shall not be invalidated or otherwise rendered ineffective but shall be and
remain in full force and effect (except to the extent that such action was a result of willful misconduct or bad faith or had or
could be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Holders of any Debt Securities issued hereunder).

 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
any Debt Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or instrument shall nevertheless be the valid obligations
of the Company entitled to the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding Debt Securities.

 

Section 1.04.            
Acts of Holders.

 

(a)                Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be
made, given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed
by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing or, alternatively, may be embodied in and evidenced by the
record of Holders voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders
duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII, or a combination of such instruments and any
such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or
instruments and any such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
 “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution
of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Debt Security, shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 9.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and
the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders shall be proved in the manner
provided in Section 13.06.

 

(b)               
The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness
of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying
that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof or may be proved in any other
manner that the Trustee and the Company deem sufficient. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his
individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority.

 

(c)                The
principal amount (except as otherwise contemplated in clause (y) of the proviso to the definition of Outstanding) and serial
numbers of Debt Securities held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Debt Security Register.

 

(d)               
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act of a Holder shall bind every
future Holder of the same Debt Security and the Holder of every Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof
or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Debt Security.

 

(e)                Until
such time as written instruments shall have been delivered to the Trustee with respect to the requisite percentage of principal
amount of Debt Securities for the action contemplated by such instruments, any such instrument executed and delivered by or on
behalf of a Holder may be revoked with respect to any or all of such Debt Securities by written notice by such Holder or any subsequent
Holder, proven in the manner in which such instrument was proven.

 

    6

     

    

 

(f)                 Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, authenticated and delivered after any Act of Holders may, and shall
if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any action taken by such Act of Holders. If
the Company shall so determine, new Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, so modified as to conform, in the opinion
of the Trustee and the Company, to such action may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranche.

 

(g)               
If the Company shall solicit from Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such
a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before
or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders
for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the Outstanding Debt Securities have authorized
or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose
the Outstanding Debt Securities shall be computed as of the record date.

prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 

In case by reason of the suspension of regular
mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice to Holders by mail, then such notification
as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. In any
case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,
to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

 

    7

     

    

 

Any notice required by this Indenture may
be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event otherwise to be specified
therein, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee,
but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

If any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required or deemed to be included in this Indenture by, or is otherwise

otherwise conflicts with the Trust Indenture Act, the Trust Indenture Act shall control.

(a)                 If
the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 3.01 that the Debt Securities of a particular 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 Section 3.03 and the Company Order delivered to the Trustee thereunder, authenticate

to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series to be represented by such Global Security
or Securities, (ii) may provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Debt Securities represented thereby may from time to
time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges, (iii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such
Global Security or Securities or its nominee, (iv) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the

Company Order.

 

    9

     

    

 

(b)               
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section or of Section 3.05, except as contemplated by the provisions
of paragraph (c) below, unless the terms of a Global Security expressly permit such Global Security to be exchanged in whole or
in part for individual Debt Securities, a Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided
in Section 3.05, only to a nominee of the Depositary for such Global Security, or to the Depositary, or to a successor
Depositary for such Global Security selected or approved by the Company, or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

(c)   (1)   If at any time the Depositary for a Global Security notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue
as the Depositary for such Global Security or if at any time the Depositary for the Debt Securities for such series shall no longer
be eligible or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to such Global Security. If a successor Depositary for such Global Security is not appointed
by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company will execute,
and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities of such series in the form
of definitive certificates in exchange for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver Debt Securities of such series in
the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global Security in exchange for such Global Security. Such Debt Securities will be issued to and registered in the name of such
Person or Persons as are specified by the Depositary.

 

(2)   To
the extent legally permitted and subject to the rules and regulations of the acting Depositary, the Company may at any time and
in its sole discretion determine that the Debt Securities of any series issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Securities
shall no longer be represented by such Global Security or Securities. In any such event the Company will execute, and the Trustee,
upon receipt of a Company Request for the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates
in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Security, will authenticate and deliver without service charge to each Person
specified by the Depositary Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security representing such series, or the aggregate principal amount of such
Global Securities representing such series, in exchange for such Global Security or Securities.

 

(3)   If specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to Debt Securities issued or issuable in the
form of a Global Security, the Depositary for such Global Security may surrender such Global Security in exchange in whole or in
part for Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates of like tenor and terms 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 any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for
such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Security and (B) to such Depositary a new Global Security of like tenor and
terms and in an authorized 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.

 

(4)   In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding three subparagraphs, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange
of the entire principal amount of a Global Security for Debt Securities in the form of definitive certificates, such Global Security
shall be canceled by the Trustee. Except as provided in the immediately preceding subparagraph, Debt 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, acting pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct
the Trustee. Provided that the Company and the Trustee have so agreed, the Trustee shall deliver such Debt Securities to the Persons
in whose names the Debt Securities are so to be registered.

 

(5)   Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the principal amount thereof, or any increase or decrease in such principal
amount, or changes in the rights of Holders of Outstanding Debt Securities represented thereby shall be made in such manner and
by such Person or Persons as shall be specified in or pursuant to any applicable letter of representations or other arrangement
entered into with, or procedures of, the Depositary with respect to such Global Security or in the Company Order delivered or to
be delivered pursuant to Section 3.03 with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.03,
the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any such Global Security in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons
specified in or pursuant to any applicable letter of representations or other arrangement entered into with, or procedures of,
the Depositary with respect to such Global Security or in any applicable Company Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 3.03
is so delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to such Global Security contained therein shall be in writing but
need not be accompanied by or contained in an Officer’s Certificate and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

 

    10

     

    

 

(6)   The Depositary or, if there be one, its nominee, shall be the Holder of a Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture;
and beneficial owners with respect to such Global Security shall hold their interests pursuant to applicable procedures of such
Depositary. The Company, the Trustee and the Debt Security Registrar shall be entitled to deal with such Depositary for all purposes
of this Indenture relating to such Global Security (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (including
Additional Interest) and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the beneficial owners of such Global Security as the
sole Holder of such Global Security, and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof (including any direct or indirect
participants in such Depositary). None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Debt Security Registrar shall 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 in or pursuant to any applicable letter of representations or other arrangement entered into with, or procedures
of, the Depositary with respect to such Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such
beneficial ownership interests.

The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
Debt Securities of a series, for original issue, at one time or from time to time in accordance with the Company Order referred
to below, upon receipt by the Trustee of:

 

(a)                 the
instrument or instruments establishing the form or forms and terms of such series, as provided in Sections 2.01 and 3.01;

 

(b)               
a Company Order requesting the authentication and delivery of such Debt Securities and, to the extent that the terms of
such Debt Securities shall not have been established in an indenture supplemental hereto or in a Board Resolution, or in an Officer’s
Certificate pursuant to a supplemental indenture or Board Resolution, all as contemplated by Sections 2.01 and 3.01,
either (i) establishing such terms or (ii) in the case of Debt Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, specifying
procedures, acceptable to the Trustee, by which such terms are to be established (which procedures may provide, to the extent acceptable
to the Trustee, for authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or any agent or agents
thereof, which oral instructions are to be promptly confirmed electronically or in writing), in either case in accordance with
the instrument or instruments delivered pursuant to clause (a) above;

 

(c)                 the
Debt Securities of such series, executed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Officer;

 

(d)               
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that:

 

(i)                the form or forms of such Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and have been established in conformity
with the provisions of this Indenture;

 

(ii)              
the terms of such Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and have been established in conformity with
the provisions of this Indenture; and

 

(iii)              assuming authentication and delivery by the Trustee and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel,
such Debt Securities will have been duly issued under this Indenture and will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company,
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement, to laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement
of creditors’ rights, including, without limitation, bankruptcy and insolvency laws and to general principles of equity (regardless
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

 

provided, however, that,
with respect to Debt Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such
Opinion of Counsel only once at or prior to the time of the first authentication of such Debt Securities (provided that such
Opinion of Counsel addresses the authentication and delivery of all Debt Securities of such series) and that in lieu of the
opinions described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above Counsel may opine that:

 

    13

     

    

 

(x)       when
the terms of such Debt Securities shall have been established pursuant to a Company Order or Orders or pursuant to such procedures
(acceptable to the Trustee) as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order or Orders, all as contemplated by and in accordance
with the instrument or instruments delivered pursuant to clause (a) above, such terms will have been duly authorized by the
Company and will have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

 

(y)       such
Debt Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and the Company Order or Orders
or specified procedures referred to in paragraph (x) above and issued and delivered by the Company in the manner and subject to
any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will have been duly issued under this Indenture and will constitute valid
and legally binding obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits provided by the Indenture, and enforceable in accordance
with their terms, subject, as to enforcement, to laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights,
including, without limitation, bankruptcy and insolvency laws and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability
is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

With respect to Debt Securities of a series
subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any of such Debt Securities,
the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and
other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 and this Section, as applicable, at or prior to the
time of the first authentication of Debt Securities of such series unless and until such opinion or other documents have been superseded
or revoked or expire by their terms. In connection with the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities of a series subject
to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that the Company’s instructions to authenticate and deliver
such Debt Securities do not violate any rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the
Company.

 

If the form or terms of the Debt Securities
of any series have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate as permitted by Sections
2.01 or 3.01, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Debt Securities if the issuance of such Debt Securities
pursuant to this Indenture will materially or adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Debt
Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof, each Debt Security shall be
dated the date of its authentication.

 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Debt Securities, or any Tranche thereof, no Debt Security 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 or its agent by manual or electronic signature,
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 and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
any Debt Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder to the Company, or any Person acting on its behalf, but
shall never have been issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Debt Security to the Debt Security Registrar
for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.02
and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Debt Security 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 hereof.

 

Section 3.04.            
Temporary Debt Securities.

 

Pending the preparation of definitive Debt
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, temporary Debt Securities that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Debt Securities in lieu of which they are issued, with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Debt Securities may determine,
as evidenced by their execution of such Debt Securities; provided, however, that temporary Debt Securities need not
recite specific redemption, sinking fund, conversion or exchange provisions.

 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, after the preparation of
definitive Debt Securities of such series or Tranche, the temporary Debt Securities of such series or Tranche shall be exchangeable,
without charge to the Holder thereof, for definitive Debt Securities of such series or Tranche, upon surrender of such temporary
Debt Securities at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 6.02 in a Place of Payment for
such Debt Securities. Upon such surrender of temporary Debt Securities, the Company shall, except as aforesaid, execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche, of authorized
denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

 

    14 

     

    

 

Until exchanged in full as hereinabove provided,
temporary Debt Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Debt Securities
of the same series and Tranche and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

Section 3.05.            
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

 

The Company shall cause to be kept in each
office designated pursuant to Section 6.02, with respect to the Debt Securities of each series or any Tranche thereof,
a register (all registers kept in accordance with this Section being collectively referred to as the “Debt Security Register”)
in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche and the registration of transfer thereof. The Company shall designate one Person to maintain the Debt
Security Register for the Debt Securities of each series on a consolidated basis, and such Person is referred to herein, with respect
to such series, as the “Debt Security Registrar.” Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company
may designate one or more of its offices as an office in which the Debt Security Register shall be maintained, and the Company
may designate itself the Debt Security Registrar with respect to one or more of such series. The Debt Security Register shall be
open for inspection by the Trustee and the Company at all reasonable times.

 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Debt Security of such series or Tranche at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 6.02
in a Place of Payment for such series or Tranche, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche, of authorized
denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, any Debt Security of such
series or Tranche may be exchanged at the option of the Holder for one or more new Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche,
of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Debt Securities to be exchanged
at any such office or agency. Whenever any Debt Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Debt Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

All Debt Securities delivered upon any registration
of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities shall be 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 Debt Security presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee or the Debt Security Registrar)
be duly endorsed or shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee or
the Debt Security Registrar, as the case may be, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, 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 registration of transfer or exchange of Debt Securities,
other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 4.06 or 12.06 not involving any transfer.

 

The Company shall not be required to execute
or to provide for the registration of transfer of or the exchange of (a) Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof,
during a period of 15 days immediately preceding the day the mailing of a notice of redemption of the Debt Securities of such series
or Tranche is to be made or (b) any Debt Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion
of any Debt Security being redeemed in part.

 

None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying
Agent or the Debt 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 3.06.            
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Debt Securities.

 

If any mutilated Debt Security is surrendered
to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Debt Security
of the same series, and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

If there shall be delivered to the Company
and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the ownership of and the destruction, loss or theft of any Debt Security
and (b) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Debt Security is held by a Person purporting to be the owner
of such Debt Security, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed,
lost or stolen Debt Security, a new Debt Security of the same series and Tranche, and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing
a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

    15 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security 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.

 

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

 

Every new Debt Security of any series issued
pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security shall constitute an original additional contractual
obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone
other than the Holder of such new Debt Security, and any such new Debt Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture
equally and proportionately with any and all other Debt Securities of such series duly issued hereunder.

 

The provisions of this Section are exclusive
and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Securities.

 

Section 3.07.            
Payment of Interest and Additional Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, interest and Additional
Interest, if any, on any Debt Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Debt Security (or one or more Predecessor Debt Securities) is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

 

Subject to Section 3.12 any
interest on any Debt Security of any series that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the related Regular
Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each
case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:

 

(a)                The
Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Debt Securities of such series (or
their respective Predecessor Debt Securities) are registered at the close of business on a date (herein called a “Special
Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Debt Security of such series
and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal
to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit
of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date
of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall
promptly 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 Debt Securities of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Debt Security
Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest
and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names
the Debt Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Debt Securities) are registered at the close of business on
such Special Record Date.

 

(b)               
The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Debt Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Debt 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 and Section 3.05, 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 (including any Additional Interest) accrued
and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Debt Security.

 

Section 3.08.            
Persons Deemed Owners.

 

Prior to due presentment of a Debt Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name such Debt Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Debt Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal
of and premium, if any, and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest, if any, on such Debt Security and for all
other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Debt Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of
the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

    16 

     

    

 

Section 3.09.            
Cancellation by Debt Security Registrar.

 

All Debt Securities surrendered for payment,
redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Debt Security Registrar, be
delivered to the Debt Security Registrar and, if not theretofore canceled, shall be promptly canceled by the Debt Security Registrar.
The Company may at any time deliver to the Debt Security Registrar for cancellation any Debt Securities previously authenticated
and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever or which the Company shall not have issued
and sold, and all Debt Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Debt Security Registrar. No Debt Securities shall
be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Debt Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted
by this Indenture. All certificates representing canceled Debt Securities held by the Debt Security Registrar shall be disposed
of in accordance with the customary practices of the Debt Security Registrar at the time in effect, and the Debt Security Registrar
shall not be required to destroy any such certificates. The Debt Security Registrar, if other than the Trustee, shall promptly
deliver a certificate of disposition with respect to such disposed certificates to the Trustee and the Company unless, by a Company
Order, similarly delivered, the Company shall direct that canceled Debt Securities be returned to it. The Debt Security Registrar
shall promptly deliver evidence of any cancellation of a Debt Security in accordance with this Section to the Trustee and the Company.
If the Trustee is the entity acting as Debt Security Registrar, it shall promptly deliver to the Company a certificate of disposition
with respect to any certificates disposed of and/or evidence of any cancellation of a Debt Security, in each case in accordance
with this Section, if so requested by a Company Order.

 

Section 3.10.            
Computation of Interest.

 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated
by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, interest on the Debt Securities of each
series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and on the basis of the actual number
of days elapsed within any month in relation to the deemed 30 days of such month.

 

Section 3.11.            
Payment to be in Proper Currency.

 

In the case of the Debt Securities of any
series, or any Tranche thereof, denominated in any currency other than Dollars or in a composite currency (the “Required
Currency”), except as otherwise specified with respect to such Debt Securities as contemplated by Section 3.01,
the obligation of the Company to make any payment of the principal thereof, or the premium or interest thereon, shall not be discharged
or satisfied by any tender by the Company, or recovery by the Trustee, in any currency other than the Required Currency, except
to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the Trustee timely holding the full amount of the Required Currency
then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a currency other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may take such
actions as it considers appropriate to exchange such currency for the Required Currency. The costs and risks of any such exchange,
including without limitation the risks of delay and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by the Company, the Company shall
remain fully liable for any shortfall or delinquency in the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable, and in no circumstances
shall the Trustee be liable therefor except in the case of its negligence or willful misconduct.

 

Section 3.12.            
Extension of Interest Payment.

 

The Company shall have the right at any
time, so long as the Company is not in default in the payment of interest on the Debt Securities of any series hereunder, to extend
interest payment periods on all Debt Securities of one or more series, or Tranches thereof, if so specified as contemplated by
Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Securities and upon such terms as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01
with respect to such Debt Securities.

 

Article
IV

Redemption of Debt Securities

 

Section 4.01.            
Applicability of Article.

 

Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche
thereof, that are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche) in accordance with this Article.

 

Section 4.02.            
Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

 

The election of the Company to redeem any
Debt Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution and/or an Officer’s Certificate. 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 in writing of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of such Debt Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any
redemption of Debt Securities (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Debt
Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (b) pursuant to an election of the Company that is subject to a condition specified
in the terms of such Debt Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance
with such restriction or condition.

 

    17 

     

    

 

Section 4.03.            
Selection of Debt Securities to be Redeemed.

 

If less than all the Debt Securities of
any series, or any Tranche thereof, are to be redeemed, the particular Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the
Trustee from the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranche not previously called for redemption, by such method as
shall be provided for any particular series, or, in the absence of any such provision, by such method of random selection that
is in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary (or, in the case of definitive Debt Securities, pro rata) and which may,
in any case, provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Debt Securities of such series or Tranche
of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche; provided,
however, that if, as indicated in an Officer’s Certificate, the Company shall have offered to purchase all or any
principal amount of the Debt Securities then Outstanding of any series, or any Tranche thereof, and less than all of such Debt
Securities as to which such offer was made shall have been tendered to the Company for such purchase, the Trustee, if so directed
by Company Order, shall select for redemption all or any principal amount of such Debt Securities that have not been so tendered.

 

If the Debt Securities are then held in
the form of a Global Security, the Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected in accordance with the customary procedures
of the Depositary.

 

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
Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Debt Securities that has been
or is to be redeemed.

 

Section 4.04.            
Notice of Redemption.

 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the
manner provided in Section 1.06 to the Holders of the Debt Securities to be redeemed not less than 30 nor more than
60 days prior to the Redemption Date.

 

All notices of redemption shall state:

 

(a)                
the Redemption Date,

 

(b)                 the
Redemption Price,

 

(c)                
if less than all the Debt Securities of any series or Tranche are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Debt
Securities to be redeemed and the portion of the principal amount of any Debt Security to be redeemed in part,

 

(d)                 that
on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including Additional Interest), if any, to the Redemption
Date, will become due and payable upon each such Debt Security to be redeemed and, if applicable and provided that the Redemption
Price is received by the Paying Agent or Agents on or prior to the Redemption Date, that interest (including any Additional Interest)
thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(e)                
the place or places where such Debt Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest,
if any, unless it shall have been specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Securities that
such surrender shall not be required,

 

(f)                  that
the redemption is for a sinking or other fund, if such is the case, and

 

(g)                
such other matters as the Company shall deem desirable or appropriate (including CUSIP numbers with respect to such Debt
Securities, if the Company shall so elect, in which event such notice of redemption may contain a disclaimer as to the correctness
of such numbers either as printed on the Debt Securities or on such notice of redemption).

 

Unless otherwise specified with respect
to any Debt Securities in accordance with Section 3.01, with respect to any notice of redemption of Debt Securities
at the election of the Company, unless, upon the giving of such notice, such Debt Securities shall be deemed to have been paid
in accordance with Section 7.01, such notice may state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by
the Paying Agent or Agents for such Debt Securities, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of money sufficient to
pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on such Debt Securities and that
if such money shall not have been so received such notice shall be of no force or effect and the Company shall not be required
to redeem such Debt Securities. In the event that such notice of redemption contains such a condition and such money is not so
received, the redemption shall not be made and within a reasonable time thereafter notice shall be given, in the manner in which
the notice of redemption was given, that such money was not so received and such redemption was not required to be made, and the
Paying Agent or Agents for the Debt Securities otherwise to have been redeemed shall promptly return to the Holders thereof any
of such Debt Securities that had been surrendered for payment upon such redemption.

 

Notice of redemption of Debt
Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company, and any notice of non-satisfaction of a condition for redemption as
aforesaid, shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Debt Security Registrar in the name and
at the expense of the Company. Notice of mandatory redemption of Debt Securities shall be given by the Debt Security
Registrar in the name and at the expense of the Company.

 

    18 

     

    

 

Section 4.05.            
Debt Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

 

Notice of redemption having been given as
aforesaid, and the conditions, if any, set forth in such notice having been satisfied, the Debt Securities or portions thereof
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, in the case of an unconditional notice of redemption, the Company shall default in the payment of the
Redemption Price and accrued interest (including Additional Interest), if any) such Debt Securities or portions thereof, if interest-bearing,
shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Debt Security for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Debt
Security or portion thereof shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that no such surrender shall be a condition to such
payment if so specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Security; and provided, further,
that except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to such Debt Security, any installment
of interest on any Debt Security the Stated Maturity of which installment is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable
to the Holder of such Debt Security, or one or more Predecessor Debt Securities, registered as such at the close of business on
the related Regular Record Date according to the terms of such Debt Security and subject to the provisions of Section 3.07.

 

Section 4.06.            
Debt Securities Redeemed in Part.

 

Upon the surrender of any Debt Security
that is to be redeemed only in part at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement
by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof
or his attorney duly authorized in writing), the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder
of such Debt Security, without service charge, a new Debt Security or Debt Securities of the same series and Tranche, of any authorized
denomination requested by such Holder and of like tenor and in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Debt Security so surrendered.

 

Article
V

Sinking Funds

 

Section 5.01.            
Applicability of Article.

 

The provisions of this Article shall be
applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Debt Securities of such series or Tranche.

 

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment
provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is herein referred to as a “mandatory
sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Debt Securities of any
series, or any Tranche thereof, is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the
terms of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction
as provided in Section 5.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Debt Securities of the
series or Tranche in respect of which it was made as provided for by the terms of such Debt Securities.

 

Section 5.02.            
Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Debt Securities.

 

The Company (a) may deliver to the Trustee
Outstanding Debt Securities (other than any previously called for redemption) of a series or Tranche in respect of which a mandatory
sinking fund payment is to be made and (b) may apply as a credit Debt Securities of such series or Tranche that have been purchased
by the Company or redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Debt Securities or 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 such mandatory sinking fund payment; provided, however, that no Debt Securities shall be applied in
satisfaction of a mandatory sinking fund payment if such Debt Securities shall have been previously so applied. Debt Securities
so applied 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 mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

 

Section 5.03.            
Redemption of Debt Securities for Sinking Fund.

 

Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking
fund payment date for the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate specifying:

 

(a)                
the amount of the next succeeding mandatory sinking fund payment for such series or Tranche;

 

(b)                
the amount, if any, of the optional sinking fund payment to be made together with such mandatory sinking fund payment;

 

    19 

     

    

 

(c)                
 the aggregate sinking fund payment;

 

(d)                
the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment that is to be satisfied by the payment of cash; and

 

(e)                
the portion, if any, of such aggregate sinking fund payment that is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Debt Securities
of such series or Tranche pursuant to Section 5.02 and stating the basis for such credit and that such Debt Securities
have not previously been so credited, and, if it has not already done so, the Company shall also deliver to the Trustee any Debt
Securities to be so delivered.

 

If the Company shall not have delivered
such Officer’s Certificate and, to the extent applicable, all such Debt Securities, on or prior to the 45th day prior to
such sinking fund payment date, the sinking fund payment for such series or Tranche in respect of such sinking fund payment date
shall be made entirely in cash in the amount of the mandatory sinking fund payment. Not less than 30 days before each such
sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Debt Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the
manner specified in Section 4.03 and the Debt Security Registrar shall cause notice of the redemption thereof to be
given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 4.04. Such notice having been
duly given, the redemption of such Debt Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 4.05
and 4.06.

 

Article
VI

Covenants

 

Section 6.01.            
Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest.

 

The Company shall pay the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Debt Securities of each series in accordance with the terms of such Debt Securities
and this Indenture.

 

Section 6.02.            
Maintenance of Office or Agency.

 

The Company shall maintain in each Place
of Payment for the Debt Securities of each series, or any Tranche thereof, an office or agency where payment of such Debt Securities
shall be made, where the registration of transfer or exchange of such Debt Securities may be effected and where notices and demands
to or upon the Company in respect of such Debt Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of each such office or agency and prompt notice to the Holders
of any such change in the manner specified in Section 1.06. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such
required office or agency in respect of Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, or shall fail to furnish the Trustee
with the address thereof, payment of such Debt Securities shall be made, registration of transfer or exchange thereof may be effected
and notices and demands in respect thereof may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints
the Trustee as its agent for all such purposes in any such event.

 

The Company may also from time to time designate
one or more other offices or agencies with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof, for any
or all of the foregoing purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that, unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to the Debt Securities of such series or Tranche no
such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such
purposes in each Place of Payment for such Debt Securities in accordance with the requirements set forth above. The Company shall
give prompt written notice to the Trustee, and prompt notice to the Holders in the manner specified in Section 1.06,
of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
any office or agency required by this Section may be maintained at an office of the Company, in which event the Company shall perform
all functions to be performed at such office or agency.

 

Section 6.03.            
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 the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, it shall, on or before each due
date of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on any of such Debt Securities,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal and premium or
interest (including Additional Interest) so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of
as herein provided. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any failure by the Company (or any other obligor on such Debt
Securities) to make any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on such
Debt Securities.

 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more
Paying Agents for the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, it shall, on or before each due date of the principal
of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on such Debt Securities, deposit with such Paying
Agents sums sufficient (without duplication) to pay the principal and premium or interest (including Additional Interest) so becoming
due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest (including Additional
Interest), and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any failure by it so
to act.

 

    20 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

(b)                 give
the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or any other obligor upon such Debt Securities) to make any payment of principal
of or premium, if any, or interest, (including Additional Interest) if any, on such Debt Securities; and

 

(c)                
at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee
all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent and furnish to the Trustee such information as it possesses regarding the names
and addresses of the Persons entitled to such sums.

 

The Company may at any time 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, if so
stated in a Company Order delivered to the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of Article VII; 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 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 (including
Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal and premium, if any,
or interest (including Additional 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, upon such payment or discharge, the Holder of such Debt Security
shall, as an unsecured general creditor and not as a Holder of an Outstanding Debt Security, look only to the Company for payment
of the amount so due and payable and remaining unpaid, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such
trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that
the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such payment to the Company, may at the expense of the Company
cause to be mailed, on one occasion only, notice to such Holder 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 mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be paid to the Company.

 

Section 6.04.            
Corporate Existence.

 

Subject to the rights of the Company under
Article XI, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect
its corporate existence.

 

Section 6.05.            
Maintenance of Properties.

 

The Company shall cause (or, with respect
to property owned in common with others, make reasonable effort to cause) all its properties used or useful in the conduct of its
business to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and shall cause (or, with respect to property owned
in common with others, make reasonable effort to cause) to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as, in the judgment of the Company, may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith
may be properly conducted; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing,
or causing the discontinuance of, the operation and maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment
of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business.

 

Section 6.06.            
Annual Officer’s Certificate as to Compliance.

 

Not later than _______________ in each year,
commencing _______________, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate, which need not comply with
Section 1.02, executed by the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer or the principal accounting
officer of the Company, stating whether, to such officer’s knowledge, the Company is in compliance with all conditions and
covenants under this Indenture, such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice
under this Indenture, and making any other statements as may be required by the provisions of Section 314(a)(4) of the Trust
Indenture Act.

 

Section 6.07.            
Waiver of Certain Covenants.

 

The Company may omit in any particular
instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in (a) Section 6.02 or any additional covenant
or restriction specified with respect to the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, as contemplated by Section 3.01 if
before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt
Securities of all series and Tranches with respect to which compliance with Section 6.02 or such additional
covenant or restriction is to be omitted, considered as one class, shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such
compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition and (b) Sections
6.04, 6.05, 6.06 or Article XI if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of Debt Securities Outstanding under this Indenture shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition; but, in the case of
(a) or (b), no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly
waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in
respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

VII

Satisfaction and Discharge

 

Section 7.01.            
Satisfaction and Discharge of Debt Securities.

 

Any Debt Security or Debt Securities, or
any portion of the principal amount thereof, shall be deemed to have been paid for all purposes of this Indenture, and the entire
indebtedness of the Company in respect thereof shall be deemed to have been satisfied and discharged, if there shall have been
irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company), in trust:

 

(a)                
money in an amount that shall be sufficient, or

 

(b)               
  in the case of a deposit made prior to the Maturity of such Debt Securities or portions thereof, Eligible Obligations, which
shall not contain provisions permitting the redemption or other prepayment thereof at the option of the issuer thereof, the principal
of and the interest on that when due, without any regard to reinvestment thereof, will provide moneys which, together with the
money, if any, deposited with or held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, shall be sufficient, or

 

(c)                
a combination of (a) or (b) that shall be sufficient,

 

to pay when due the principal of and premium,
if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, due and to become due on such Debt Securities or portions thereof
on or prior to Maturity; provided, however, that in the case of the provision for payment or redemption of less than
all the Debt Securities of any series or Tranche, such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall have been selected by the Trustee
as provided herein and, in the case of a redemption, the notice requisite to the validity of such redemption shall have been given
or irrevocable authority shall have been given by the Company to the Trustee to give such notice, under arrangements satisfactory
to the Trustee; and provided, further, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee and such Paying Agent:

 

(x)       if
such deposit shall have been made prior to the Maturity of such Debt Securities, a Company Order stating that the money and Eligible
Obligations deposited in accordance with this Section shall be held in trust, as provided in Section 7.03;

 

(y)       if
Eligible Obligations shall have been deposited, an Opinion of Counsel that the obligations so deposited constitute Eligible Obligations
and do not contain provisions permitting the redemption or other prepayment at the option of the issuer thereof, and an opinion
of an independent public accountant of nationally recognized standing, selected by the Company, to the effect that the requirements
set forth in clause (b) above have been satisfied; and

 

(z)       if
such deposit shall have been made prior to the Maturity of such Debt Securities, an Officer’s Certificate stating the Company’s
intention that, upon delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, its indebtedness in respect of such Debt Securities or portions
thereof will have been satisfied and discharged as contemplated in this Section.

 

If the Company shall make any deposit of
money and/or Eligible Obligations with respect to any Debt Securities, or any portion of the principal amount thereof, as contemplated
by this section, the Company shall not deliver an Officer’s Certificate described in clause (z) above unless the Company
shall also deliver to the Trustee, together with such Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as
a result of a change in law occurring after the date of this Indenture, the Holders of such Debt Securities, or portions thereof,
will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the satisfaction and discharge
of the Company’s indebtedness in respect thereof and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts,
at the same times and in the same manner as if such satisfaction and discharge had not been effected.

 

Upon the deposit of money or Eligible Obligations,
or both, in accordance with this Section, together with the documents required by clauses (x), (y) and (z) above, the Trustee shall,
upon receipt of a Company Request, acknowledge in writing that the Debt Security or Debt Securities or portions thereof with respect
to which such deposit was made are deemed to have been paid for all purposes of this Indenture and that the entire indebtedness
of the Company in respect thereof has been satisfied and discharged as contemplated in this Section. In the event that all of the
conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section shall have been satisfied in respect of any Debt Securities or portions
thereof except that, for any reason, the Officer’s Certificate specified in clause (z) shall not have been delivered,
such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid for all purposes of this Indenture, and
the Holders of such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall nevertheless be no longer entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
or of any of the covenants of the Company under Article VI (except the covenants contained in Sections 6.02
and 6.03) or any other covenants made in respect of such Debt Securities or portions thereof as contemplated by Section 3.01,
but the indebtedness of the Company in respect of such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall not be deemed to have been satisfied and
discharged prior to Maturity for any other purpose, and the Holders of such Debt Securities or portions thereof shall continue to be entitled
to look to the Company for payment of the indebtedness represented thereby; and, upon receipt of a Company Request, the Trustee shall
acknowledge in writing that such Debt Securities or portions thereof are deemed to have been paid for all purposes of this Indenture.

 

    22 

     

    

 

 

If payment at Stated Maturity of less than
all of the Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof, is to be provided for in the manner and with the effect provided
in this Section, the Trustee shall select such Debt Securities, or portions of principal amount thereof, in the manner specified
by Section 4.03 for selection for redemption of less than all the Debt Securities of a series or Tranche.

 

In the event that Debt Securities that shall
be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture, and, if such is the case, in respect of which the Company’s indebtedness
shall have been satisfied and discharged, all as provided in this Section, do not mature and are not to be redeemed within the
60 day period commencing with the date of the deposit of moneys or Eligible Obligations, as aforesaid, the Company shall, as promptly
as practicable, give a notice, in the same manner as a notice of redemption with respect to such Debt Securities, to the Holders
of such Debt Securities to the effect that such deposit has been made and the effect thereof.

 

Notwithstanding that any Debt Securities
shall be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture, as aforesaid, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee
in respect of such Debt Securities under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 4.04, 5.03 (as to notice
of redemption), 6.02, 6.03, 9.07, 9.14 and 9.15 and this Article shall survive.

 

The Company shall pay, and shall indemnify
the Trustee or any Paying Agent with which Eligible Obligations shall have been deposited as provided in this Section against any
tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against such Eligible Obligations or the principal or interest received in respect
of such Eligible Obligations, including, but not limited to, any such tax payable by any entity deemed, for tax purposes, to have
been created as a result of such deposit.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
(a) if, at any time after a Debt Security would be deemed to have been paid for purposes of this Indenture, and, if such is the
case, the Company’s indebtedness in respect thereof would be deemed to have been satisfied or discharged, pursuant to this
Section (without regard to the provisions of this paragraph), the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall be required
to return the money or Eligible Obligations, or combination thereof, deposited with it as aforesaid to the Company or its representative
under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, such Debt Security shall thereupon be deemed
retroactively not to have been paid and any satisfaction and discharge of the Company’s indebtedness in respect thereof shall
retroactively be deemed not to have been effected, and such Debt Security shall be deemed to remain Outstanding and (b) any satisfaction
and discharge of the Company’s indebtedness in respect of any Debt Security shall be subject to the provisions of the last
paragraph of Section 6.03.

 

Section 7.02.            
Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

 

This Indenture shall upon Company Request
cease to be of further effect (except as hereinafter expressly provided), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall
execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

 

(a)                
no Debt Securities remain Outstanding hereunder; and

 

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

 

provided, however, that if,
in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 7.01, any Debt Security, previously deemed to have been paid for purposes
of this Indenture, shall be deemed retroactively not to have been so paid, this Indenture shall thereupon be deemed retroactively
not to have been satisfied and discharged, as aforesaid, and to remain in full force and effect, and the Company shall execute
and deliver such instruments as the Trustee shall reasonably request to evidence and acknowledge the same.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture as aforesaid, the obligations of the Company and the Trustee under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06,
4.04, 5.03 (as to notice of redemption), 6.02, 6.03, 9.07, 9.14 and 9.15 and this
Article shall survive.

 

Upon satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture as provided in this Section, the Trustee shall assign, transfer and turn over to the Company, subject to the lien provided
by Section 9.07, any and all money, securities and other property then held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders
of the Debt Securities other than money and Eligible Obligations held by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.03.

 

    23 

     

    

 

Section 7.03.            
Application of Trust Money.

 

Neither the Eligible Obligations nor
the money deposited pursuant to Section 7.01, nor the principal or interest payments on any such Eligible
Obligations, shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose other than, and shall be held in trust for, the payment of the
principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on, the Debt Securities or portions
of principal amount thereof in respect of which such deposit was made, all subject, however, to the provisions of Section 6.03; provided, however,
that, so long as there shall not have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default, any cash received from such principal or interest payments
on such Eligible Obligations, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, to the extent practicable, be invested in Eligible
Obligations of the type described in Section 7.01(b) maturing at such times and in such amounts as shall be
sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, due
and to become due on such Debt Securities or portions thereof on and prior to the Maturity thereof, and interest earned from
such reinvestment shall be paid over to the Company as received, free and clear of any trust, lien or pledge under this
Indenture except the lien provided by Section 9.07; and provided, further, that, so long as there
shall not have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of
time, would become an Event of Default, any moneys held in accordance with this Section on the Maturity of all such Debt
Securities in excess of the amount required to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, then due on such Debt Securities shall be paid over to the Company free and clear of any trust, lien or
pledge under this Indenture except the lien provided by Section 9.07; and provided, further, that
if an Event of Default, or an event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default,
shall have occurred and be continuing, moneys to be paid over to the Company pursuant to this Section shall be held until
such Event of Default, or event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become an Event of Default,
shall have been waived or cured.

failure to pay interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt Security of such series within 30 days after
the same becomes due and payable (whether or not payment is prohibited by the provisions of Article XV hereof); provided,
however, that a valid extension of the interest payment period by the Company as contemplated in Section 3.12
of this Indenture shall not constitute a failure to pay interest for this purpose; or

 

(b)               
failure to pay the principal of or premium, if any, on any Debt Security of such series when due and payable under this
Indenture (whether or not payment is prohibited by the provisions of Article XV hereof); or

failure to make any sinking fund payment with respect to such series when due; or

 

(d)               
failure to perform or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty
a default in the performance of which or breach of which is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly
been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of Debt Securities other than such series) for a period
of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and
the Trustee by the Holders of at least 33% 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, unless the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Holders of a principal amount of Debt Securities of such series not less
than the principal amount of Debt Securities the Holders of which gave such notice, as the case may be, shall agree in writing
to an extension of such period prior to its expiration; provided, however, that the Trustee, or the Trustee and the
Holders of such principal amount of Debt Securities of such series, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have agreed to an extension
of such period for a maximum of one hundred twenty (120) days if corrective action is initiated by the Company within such
period and is being diligently pursued; or

 

(e)               
the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (1) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in
an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
law or (2) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition by one
or more Persons other than the Company seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company
under any applicable federal or state law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or
other similar official for the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of

for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

 

(f)                 the
commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the
consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in a case or proceeding under any
applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any
bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking
reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to
the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar
official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the
authorization of such action by the Board of Trustees; or

 

    24 

     

    

 

 

(g)               
any other Event of Default specified with respect to Debt Securities of such series.

 

Section 8.02.            
Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

 

If an Event of Default due to the default
in payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest) on, any series of Debt Securities or
due to the default in the performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty of the Company applicable to the Debt Securities
of such series but not applicable to all Outstanding Debt Securities shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee
or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount of the Debt Securities of such series may then declare the principal amount
(or, if any of the Debt Securities of such series are Discount Debt Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be
specified in the terms thereof as contemplated by Section 3.01) of all Debt Securities of such series and premium,
if any, and interest (including Additional Interest) accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing
to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). If an Event of Default due to default in the performance of any other
of the covenants or warranties herein applicable to all Outstanding Debt Securities or an Event of Default specified in Sections 8.01(e)
or (f) shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 33% in principal amount
of all Debt Securities then Outstanding (considered as one class), and not the Holders of the Debt Securities of any one of such
series, may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Debt Securities are Discount Debt Securities, such portion of the principal
amount of such Debt Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof as contemplated by Section 3.01) of all Debt
Securities and premium, if any, and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company
(and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). As a consequence of each such declaration (herein referred to as a declaration of
acceleration) with respect to Debt Securities of any series, the principal amount (or portion thereof in the case of Discount Debt
Securities) of such Debt Securities, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest) accrued thereon shall become
due and payable immediately (provided that the payment of principal of such Debt Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent
provided in Article XV hereof).

 

With respect to a series of Debt Securities
to which a credit enhancement is applicable, the applicable supplemental indenture may provide that the provider of such credit
enhancement may, if default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such series, and subject to certain conditions, have
all the rights with respect to remedies that would otherwise have been exercisable by the Holders of Debt Securities of that series.

 

At any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to Debt Securities of any series shall have been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of
the money due shall have been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Event or Events of Default giving
rise to such declaration of acceleration shall, without further act, be deemed to have been waived, and such declaration and its
consequences shall, without further act, be deemed to have been rescinded and annulled, if

 

(a)                
the Company shall have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

 

(1)   
all overdue interest on all Debt Securities of such series;

 

(2)   
the principal of and premium, if any, on any Debt Securities of such series that have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest (including Additional Interest) thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such
Debt Securities;

 

(3)   
to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in such Debt Securities;

 

(4)   
all amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.07; and

 

(b)               
any other Event or Events of Default with respect to Debt Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal
of Debt Securities of such series that shall have become due solely by reason of such declaration of acceleration, shall have been
cured or waived as provided in Section 8.13.

 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section 8.03.            
Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 

If an Event of Default described in clause (a),
(b) or (c) of Section 8.01 shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay
to it, for the benefit of the Holders of the Debt Securities of the series with respect to which such Event of Default shall have
occurred, the whole amount then due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal and premium, if any, and interest, if any,
and, to the extent permitted by law, (i) interest on premium, if any, (ii) interest on any overdue principal and (iii) Additional
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 any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 9.07.

 

    25 

     

    

 

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

 

If an Event of Default with respect to Debt
Securities of any series shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 under the Indenture 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 8.04.            
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

 

In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative
to the Company or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors,
the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the 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 (including Additional Interest)) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding
or otherwise,

 

(a)                
to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest),

and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

 

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

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make
such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders,
to pay to the Trustee any amounts due it under Section 9.07.

 

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 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.

Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Debt Securities.

Indenture or the Debt Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Debt Securities

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
in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Subject to the provisions of Article XV,
any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed

any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal, premium, if any, and interest (including
Additional Interest), if any, respectively; and

 

THIRD: To the payment of the remainder,
if any, to the Company, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may

Section 8.07.            
Limitation on Suits.

 

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

 

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

 

(b)               
the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series in
respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, considered as one class, shall have made written request
to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

 

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

 

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

 

(e)                
no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series in respect of which an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, considered as one class;

 

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

 

Section 8.08.            
Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Debt Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the
principal of and premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.07 and 3.12) interest (including Additional Interest),
if any, on such Debt Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security (or, in the case of redemption,
on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

 

Section 8.09.            
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 shall have been discontinued or abandoned
for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject
to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, Trustee and such Holder shall be restored severally and respectively to their
former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and such Holder shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

 

Section 8.10.            
Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the last
paragraph of Section 3.06, 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 8.11.            
Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

 

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

 

Section 8.12.            
Control by Holders of Debt Securities.

 

If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing in respect of a series of Debt Securities, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Debt Securities of such series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect
to the Debt Securities of such series; provided, however, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing with respect to more than one series of Debt Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all such series, considered as one class, shall have the right to make such
direction, and not the Holders of the Debt Securities of any one of such series; and provided, further,
that

 

    27 

     

    

 

(a)                
such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and may not involve the Trustee in
personal liability in circumstances where indemnity would not in the Trustee’s reasonable discretion be adequate, and

 

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

 

Before proceeding to exercise any right
or power hereunder at the direction of such Holders, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive from such Holders reasonable security
or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with any such direction.

 

Section 8.13.            
Waiver of Past Defaults.

 

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
such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default

 

(a)                
in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt
Security of such series, or

 

(b)               
in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section 12.02 cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Debt Security of such series affected.

 

Upon any such waiver, such default shall
cease to exist, and any and all Events 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 8.14.            
Undertaking for Costs.

 

The Company and the Trustee agree, and each
Holder 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 Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted
by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt
Securities of all series in respect of which such suit may be brought, considered as one class, or to any suit instituted by any
Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest),
if any, on any Debt Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Debt Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

 

Section 8.15.            
Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

 

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

 

Article
IX

The Trustee

 

Section 9.01.            
Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

 

(a)                
The Trustee shall have and be subject to all the duties and responsibilities specified with respect to an indenture trustee
in the Trust Indenture Act, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.

 

(b)                The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may
have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In
case an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has knowledge has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and
skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
person’s own affairs.

 

    28 

     

    

 

(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 prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after
the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred

 

(i)     
the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of, or failure to perform, such duties and obligations as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

 

(ii)   
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements
and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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 that by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

 

(d)               
The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of Debt Securities pursuant to Section 8.12, relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
under this Indenture.

 

(e)                
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 it is not reasonably assured of receiving (i) repayment of such funds or (ii) indemnity,
in an amount deemed adequate to the Trustee in its reasonable judgment, against such risk or liability.

 

(f)                 
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the duties and responsibilities of the Trustee under
this Indenture shall be subject to the protections, exculpations and limitations on liability afforded to the Trustee under the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, including those provisions of such Act deemed by such Act to be included herein.

 

(g)               
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 9.02.            
Notice of Defaults.

 

The Trustee shall give the Holders notice
of any default hereunder with respect to the Debt Securities of any series to the Holders of Debt Securities of such series of
which it has knowledge (within the meaning of Section 9.03(h)) in the manner and to the extent required to do so by
the Trust Indenture Act, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that in the case
of any default of the character specified in Section 8.01(d), no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least
60 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event that is,
or after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, an Event of Default.

 

Section 9.03.            
Certain Rights of Trustee.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 9.01
and to the applicable provisions of the Trust Indenture Act:

 

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

a Board Resolution;

 

(c)                
whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established

may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate;

 

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

 

    29 

     

    

 

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

 

(f)                 
the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness
or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts
or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall (subject
to applicable legal requirements) be entitled to examine, during normal business hours, the books, records and premises of the
Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

 

(g)               
the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney
appointed with due care by it hereunder;

 

(h)               
the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
any series for which it is acting as Trustee unless either (1) in the case of a default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(b), a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee shall have knowledge of the default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such default or Event of
Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company, any other obligor on such Debt Securities or by any Holder of such
Debt Securities.

 

(i)                 
The permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty unless so
specified herein.

 

(j)                 
In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, consequential loss, or punitive damages or
damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised
of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 

(k)               
The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right
to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent,
custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

 

(l)                 
The Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved
that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

 

(m)              
The Company agrees that (i) if reasonably requested by The Bank of New York Mellon in any of its capacities hereunder (for
purposes of this paragraph, “Trustee”) and required by Sections 1471-1474 of the Code or regulations promulgated thereunder,
including applicable intergovernmental agreements promulgated thereunder, if any (“FATCA”), in relation to a payment
made under the Indenture and the Notes issued thereunder, the Company will provide such information if and to the extent that (A)
such information is reasonably necessary for the Trustee to determine that it is in compliance with FATCA as relates to the payments
made under the Indenture and the Notes issued thereunder and (B) such information is reasonably available to the Company with regard
to the Company and its subsidiaries in relation to the requirements of FATCA that are actually imposed upon such requesting Trustee;
provided however that the Company and its subsidiaries shall not be required to provide information which it is prohibited legally
from disclosing and (ii) the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments to the extent necessary
to comply with FATCA for which the Trustee shall have no liability and shall have no obligation to gross-up any payment under this
Indenture or to pay any additional amount as a result of such FATCA withholding tax.

 

(n)               
To help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Trustee will obtain, verify, and record information
that identifies individuals or entities that establish a relationship or open an account with the Trustee. The Trustee will ask
for the name, address, tax identification number and other information that will allow the Trustee to identify the individual or
entity who is establishing the relationship or opening the account. The Trustee may also ask for formation documents such as articles
of incorporation, an offering memorandum, or other identifying documents to be provided.

 

(o)               
The Trustee shall accept electronic transmissions; provided that the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to verify
or confirm that the Person sending instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information by electronic
transmission is, in fact, a Person authorized to give such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or
information on behalf of the party purporting to send such electronic transmission; and the Trustee shall not have any liability
for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by any party as a result of such reliance upon or compliance
with such instructions, directions, reports, notices or other communications or information. Each other party to this Indenture
agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of electronic methods to submit instructions, directions, reports, notices or
other communications or information to the Trustee, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized
instructions, notices, reports or other communications or information, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

 

    30 

     

    

 

Section 9.04.            
Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Debt Securities.

 

The recitals contained herein and in the
Debt Securities (except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and
neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations
as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent
shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Debt Securities or the proceeds thereof. The Trustee shall not
incur any liability for non-performance or breach of any obligation hereunder to the extent that the Trustee is delayed in performing,
unable to perform or breaches such obligation because of acts of God, war, terrorism, fire, floods, electrical outages or other
causes reasonably beyond its control; provided, however, that the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts
consistent with accepted practices for corporate trustees to maintain performance without delay or resume performance as soon as
reasonably practicable under the circumstances.

 

Section 9.05.            
May Hold Debt Securities.

 

Each of the Trustee, any Authenticating
Agent, any Paying Agent, any Debt Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity,
may become the owner or pledgee of Debt Securities and, subject to Sections 9.08 and 9.13, may otherwise deal
with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Debt Security
Registrar or such other agent.

 

Section 9.06.            
Money Held in Trust.

 

Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder
need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest
on investment of any money received by it hereunder except as expressly provided herein or otherwise agreed with, and for the sole
benefit of, the Company.

 

Section 9.07.            
Compensation and Reimbursement.

 

The Company shall

 

(a)                
pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation
shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

 

(b)               
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture, including the costs
of collection (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except to the
extent that any such expense, disbursement or advance may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith; and

 

(c)    
indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless from and against any and all losses, demands, claims, liabilities, causes of
action or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with
the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder, including the reasonable
costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of
its powers or duties hereunder(regardless of whether such claim is brought by the Company, a Holder, or any other Person), except
to the extent any such loss, demand, claim, liability, cause of action or expense may be attributable to its negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith and may assume the defense of the Trustee with counsel acceptable to the Trustee, unless the Trustee shall
have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional
to those available to the Company, in which case the Trustee may engage separate counsel, and the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be assumed by the Company.

 

As security for the performance of the obligations
of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Debt Securities upon all property and funds held
or collected by the Trustee as such other than property and funds held in trust for the payment of principal, premium, if any,
and interest on Debt Securities. “Trustee” for purposes of this Section shall include any predecessor Trustee;
provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect
the rights of any other Trustee hereunder. When a Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default
specified in Sections 8.01(e) or (f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel)
and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this Indenture and the
resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 

Section 9.08.            
Disqualification; Conflicting Interests.

 

If the Trustee shall have or acquire any
conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, it shall either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign
to the extent, in the manner and with the effect, and subject to the conditions, provided in the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture.
For purposes of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act and to the extent permitted thereby, the Trustee shall not be
deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a Trustee under (i) this Indenture with respect to Debt Securities of one or more series or (ii) any other indenture
to which the Trustee and the Company are a party, if any, or with respect to the securities issued thereunder, if any.

 

    31 

     

    

 

 

Section 9.09.            
Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder
which shall be

 

(a)                
a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District
of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000
and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, or

 

(b)                
if and to the extent permitted by the Commission by rule, regulation or order upon application, a corporation or other Person
organized and doing business under the laws of a foreign government, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000 or the Dollar equivalent of the applicable foreign currency and
subject to supervision or examination by authority of such foreign government or a political subdivision thereof substantially
equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to United States institutional trustees,

 

and, in either case, qualified and eligible
under this Article and the Trust Indenture Act. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or to the requirements of such supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital

condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

 

Section 9.10.            
Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)                
No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 9.11.

 

(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 the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 9.11 shall not have been
delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such series.

 

(c)                
The Trustee may be removed at any time upon 30 days’ notice 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 fail to comply with Section 9.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder
who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months, or

 

(2)   
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 9.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor
by the Company or by any such Holder, or

 

(3)   
the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or
of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs
for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

 

then, in any such case, (x) the Company
by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Debt Securities or (y) subject to Section 8.14,
any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Debt Securities and the appointment
of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

 

(e)                 If
the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for
any cause (other than as contemplated in clause (y) in Subsection (d) of this Section), with respect to the Debt
Securities of 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 9.11. 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 delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 9.11, 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 appointment in the
manner required by Section 9.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of such series for
at least six months may, on behalf of itself 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)                 
So long as no event that is, or after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, and except with respect to a Trustee appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Debt Securities pursuant to Subsection (e) of this Section, if the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee (i) a
Board Resolution appointing a successor Trustee, effective as of a date specified therein, and (ii) an instrument of acceptance
of such appointment, effective as of such date, by such successor Trustee in accordance with Section 9.11, the Trustee
shall be deemed to have resigned as contemplated in Subsection (b) of this Section, the successor Trustee shall be deemed to have
been appointed by the Company pursuant to Subsection (e) of this Section and such appointment shall be deemed to have been accepted
as contemplated in Section 9.11, all as of such date, and all other provisions of this Section and Section 9.11
shall be applicable to such resignation, appointment and acceptance except to the extent inconsistent with this Subsection
(f).

 

(g)                
The Company or, should the Company fail so to act promptly, the successor Trustee, at the expense of 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 all Holders of Debt Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Debt Security

address of its corporate trust office.

 

Section 9.11.            
Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

 

(a)                
In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of all series, every such
successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor
Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all
sums owed to it, 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 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 request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of all sums owed to it, shall duly
assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all 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 instruments that fully vest in and confirm to
such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in Subsection (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 9.12.            
Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of
the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible
under this Article, without the execution 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.

 

Section 9.13.            
Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

 

If the Trustee shall be or become a creditor
of the Company or any other obligor upon the Debt Securities (other than by reason of a relationship described in Section 311(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act), the Trustee shall be subject to any and all applicable provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding
the collection of claims against the Company or such other obligor. For purposes of Section 311(b) of the Trust Indenture
Act:

 

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

 

(b)                
the term “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation that 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 that 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.

 

Section 9.14.            
Co-Trustees and Separate Trustees.

 

At any time or times, for the purpose of
meeting the legal requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, the Company and the Trustee shall have power to appoint, and, upon
the written request of the Trustee or of the Holders of at least 33% in principal amount of the Debt Securities then Outstanding,
the Company shall for such purpose join with the Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements necessary
or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Trustee, or to
act as separate trustee, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the
other provisions of this Section. If the Company does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request so to do, or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have power to make such
appointment.

 

Should any written instrument or instruments
from the Company be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed to more fully confirm to such co-trustee or separate
trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered
by the Company.

 

Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall,
to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following conditions:

 

(a)                
the Debt Securities shall be authenticated and delivered, and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect
of the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee
hereunder, shall be exercised solely, by the Trustee;

 

(b)                
the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered
by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed either by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such
co-trustee or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee,
except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and
performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee;

 

(c)                 the
Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Company, may accept the
resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, if an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or
separate trustee without the concurrence of the Company. Upon the written request of the Trustee, the Company shall join with
the Trustee in the execution and delivery of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such
resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the
manner provided in this Section;

 

    34

     

    

 

(d)                
no co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee,
or any other such trustee hereunder, and the Trustee shall have no liability, personally or in its capacity as Trustee, for any
act or omission of any co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder; and

 

(e)                
any Act of Holders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate
trustee.

 

Section 9.15.            
Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating
Agent or Agents with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof, which shall be authorized to
act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Debt Securities of such series or Tranche issued upon original issuance, exchange,
registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06, and Debt Securities so authenticated
shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Debt Securities by the Trustee
or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on
behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating
Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States, any state or territory thereof or the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of
Puerto Rico, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports
of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital
and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in this Section.

 

Any corporation into which an Authenticating
Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall
be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.

 

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any
time by giving 45 days written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency
of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent that shall be acceptable
to the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all
the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.
No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

 

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating
Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

 

The provisions of Sections 3.08,
9.04 and 9.05 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.

 

If an appointment with respect to the Debt
Securities of one or more series, or any Tranche thereof, shall be made pursuant to this Section, the Debt Securities of such series
or Tranche may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate
of authentication substantially in the following form:

 

This is one of the Debt Securities of the
series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 

	Date: 	 By:     	 
	 	 	As Trustee
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 
	 	 	As Authenticating Agent
	 	 	 
	 	By:	 
	 	 	Authorized Signatory

 

    35

     

    

 

If all of the Debt Securities of a series
may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Debt Securities
upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Debt Securities of such series authenticated
upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 1.02
and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), shall appoint, in accordance with this Section and in accordance with such
procedures as shall be acceptable to the Trustee, an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by
the Company with respect to such series of Debt Securities.

The Company shall notify the Trustee of

than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of all series then Outstanding under this Indenture, considered
as one class, 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; provided, however, that if there shall be
Debt Securities of more than one series Outstanding hereunder and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the
rights of the Holders of Debt Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the consent only of the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series so directly affected, considered as
one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that if the Debt Securities of any series shall have been issued
in more than one Tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of Debt Securities
of one or more, but less than all, of such Tranches, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all Tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and
provided, further, that no such supplemental indenture shall:

 

(a)                
change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest (including Additional Interest)
on (except as provided in Section 3.12) any Debt Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest
thereon (or the amount of any installment of interest thereon) or change the method of calculating such rate or reduce any premium
payable upon the redemption thereof, or reduce the amount of the principal of a Discount Debt Security that would be due and payable
upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 8.02, or change the coin or currency
(or other property) in which any Debt Security or any premium or the interest (including Additional Interest) thereon is payable,
or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity of any Debt Security
(or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), without, in any such case, the consent of the Holder of such
Debt Security, or

 

(b)                
reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of any series or any Tranche thereof, the consent
of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for
any waiver of compliance with any provision of this Indenture or of any default hereunder and its consequences, or reduce the requirements
of Section 13.04 for quorum or voting, without, in any such case, the consent of the Holders of each Outstanding Debt
Security of such series or Tranche, or

 

(c)                
modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 6.07 or Section 8.13 with respect to the Debt
Securities of any series, or any Tranche thereof (except to increase the percentages in principal amount referred to in this Section
or such other Sections or to provide that 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, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 9.11(b), 9.14
and 12.01(h).

 

A supplemental indenture that changes or
eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture that has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or
more particular series of Debt Securities, or of one or more Tranches thereof, or that modifies the rights of the Holders of Debt
Securities of such series or Tranches 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 or Tranche.

 

    38

     

    

 

Upon the request of the Company, accompanied
by a copy of the Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, compliance by the Company with
Section 12.03 hereof, and the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders of the Debt Securities
required hereunder with respect to the proposed supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution
of such supplemental indenture unless the supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture, or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not be obligated to enter into such supplemental
indenture.

 

It shall not be necessary for any Act of
Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if
such Act shall approve the substance thereof. A waiver by a Holder of such Holder’s right to consent under this Section shall
be deemed to be a consent of such Holder.

 

Section 12.03.         
Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

 

In executing, or accepting the additional
trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided and (subject to Section 9.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon an
Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized
or permitted by this Indenture.

 

Section 12.04.         
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
shall be bound thereby. Any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article may restate this Indenture in its entirety, and, upon
the execution and delivery thereof, any such restatement shall supersede this Indenture as theretofore in effect for all purposes.

 

Section 12.05.         
Conformity With Trust Indenture Act.

 

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

 

Section 12.06.         
Reference in Debt Securities to Supplemental Indentures.

 

Debt Securities of any series, or any Tranche
thereof, 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, or any Tranche thereof, so modified as to conform,
in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Debt Securities of such series or Tranche.

 

Section 12.07.         
Modification without Supplemental Indenture.

 

If the terms of any particular series of
Debt Securities shall have been established in a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to a Board Resolution
as contemplated by Section 3.01, and not in an indenture supplemental hereto, additions to, changes in or the elimination
of any of such terms may be effected by means of a supplemental Board Resolution or Officer’s Certificate, as the case may
be, delivered to, and accepted by, the Trustee; provided, however, that such supplemental Board Resolution or Officer’s
Certificate shall not be accepted by the Trustee or otherwise be effective unless all conditions set forth in this Indenture that
would be required to be satisfied if such additions, changes or elimination were contained in a supplemental indenture shall have
been appropriately satisfied. Upon the acceptance thereof by the Trustee, any such supplemental Board Resolution or Officer’s
Certificate shall be deemed to be a “supplemental indenture” for purposes of Sections 12.04 and 12.06.

shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within one hour of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall,
if convened at the request of Holders of Debt Securities of such series and Tranches, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting

In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for such period as may

Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Debt Securities shall be proved in the manner
specified in Section 1.04 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.04.
Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine
without the proof specified in Section 1.04 or other proof.

 

(c)               
The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have
been called by the Company or by Holders as provided in Section 13.02(b), in which case the Company or the Holders
of Debt Securities of the series and Tranches calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary

Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting

Any meeting duly called pursuant to Section 13.02 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time to
time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all series and
Tranches represented at the meeting, considered as one class; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

 

Section 13.06.

to which the meeting shall have been called, held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two
inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with
the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports of all votes cast at the meeting. A record of the proceedings of each
meeting of Holders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports

Liability Solely Corporate.

 

No recourse shall be had for the
payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on any Debt Securities,

thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under this Indenture, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer
or trustee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation (either directly
or through the Company or a predecessor or successor corporation), whether by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute
or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood
that this Indenture and all the Debt Securities are solely corporate obligations, and that no personal liability whatsoever
shall attach to, or be incurred by, any incorporator, shareholder, officer or trustee, past, present or future, of the
Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, either directly or indirectly through the Company or any predecessor

covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Debt Securities or to be implied herefrom or therefrom,
and that any such personal liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as part of the

Article
XV

Subordination of Securities

 

Section 15.01.         
Securities Subordinate to Senior Indebtedness.

 

The Company, for itself, its successors
and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of the Debt Securities of each series, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants
and agrees, that the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on each and all of the Debt Securities
is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner set forth in this Article, in right of payment to the prior payment
in full of all Senior Indebtedness.

 

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

 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
nothing contained in this Article shall restrict the right of the Trustee or the Holders of Debt Securities to take any action
to declare the Debt Securities to be due and payable prior to their stated maturity pursuant to Section 8.02 or to
pursue any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that all Senior Indebtedness then due and payable shall
first be paid in full before the Holders of the Debt Securities or the Trustee are entitled to receive any direct or indirect payment
from the Company of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Debt Securities.

 

Section 15.02.         
Payment Over of Proceeds of Securities.

 

In the event (a) of any insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in respect of the Company or a substantial
part of its property, or of any proceedings for liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company, whether or not involving
insolvency or bankruptcy, whether voluntary or involuntary or (b) subject to the provisions of Section 15.03, that
(i) a default shall have occurred with respect to the payment of principal of or interest on or other monetary amounts due and
payable on any Senior Indebtedness, or (ii) there shall have occurred a default (other than a default in the payment of principal
or interest or other monetary amounts due and payable) in respect of any Senior Indebtedness, as defined therein or in the instrument
under which the same is outstanding, permitting the holder or holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof (with notice or
lapse of time, or both), and such default shall have continued beyond the period of grace, if any, in respect thereof, and, in
the cases of subclauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (b), such default shall not have been cured or waived or shall not have
ceased to exist, and, in the case of subclause (ii) of this clause (b), the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness shall
have been accelerated in accordance with the default provisions thereof or (c) that the principal of and accrued interest on the
Debt Securities of any series shall have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 8.01 and such declaration
shall not have been rescinded and annulled as provided in Section 8.02, then:

 

(1)   
the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment of the full amount due thereon, or provision
shall be made for such payment in money or money’s worth, before the Holders of any of the Debt Securities are entitled to
receive a payment on account of the principal of or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Debt Securities, including, without
limitation, any payments made pursuant to Articles IV and V;

 

(2)   
any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
to which any Holder or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, shall be paid or delivered by the
person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly
to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture
under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate
amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment
in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision
therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holder of the indebtedness
evidenced by the Debt Securities or to the Trustee under this Indenture; and

 

    42

     

    

 

(3)    in
the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Company of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities, in respect of principal of or interest on the Debt Securities or in
connection with any repurchase by the Company of the Debt Securities, shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder before
all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full to the extent required by Subsection (1) of this Section 15.02, or
provision is made for such payment in money or money’s worth, such payment or distribution in respect of principal of
or interest on the Debt Securities or in connection with any repurchase by the Company of the Debt Securities shall be paid
over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees
under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably as
aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time
after the 123rd day following the date of deposit of cash or Eligible Obligations pursuant to Section 7.01 (provided
all conditions set out in such Section shall have been satisfied), the funds so deposited and any interest thereon will not be
subject to any rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, those arising under this Article; provided
that no event described in clauses (e) and (f) of Section 8.01 with respect to the Company has occurred during such
123-day period.

 

For purposes of this Article only, the words
 “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of beneficial interest of the Company as reorganized
or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment that
are subordinate in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness that may at the time be outstanding to the same extent as, or to
a greater extent than, the Debt Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article. The consolidation of the Company with,
or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance
or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions
provided for in Article XI hereof shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for
the purposes of this Section 15.02 if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance
or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article XI hereof. Nothing in Section 15.01 or in this
Section 15.02 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 9.07.

 

Section 15.03.         
Disputes with Holders of Certain Senior Indebtedness.

 

Any failure by the Company to make any payment
on or perform any other obligation in respect of Senior Indebtedness, other than any indebtedness incurred by the Company or assumed
or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the Company for money borrowed (or any deferral, renewal, extension or refunding thereof)
or any other obligation as to which the provisions of this Section shall have been waived by the Company in the instrument or instruments
by which the Company incurred, assumed, guaranteed or otherwise created such indebtedness or obligation, shall not be deemed a
default under clause (b) of Section 15.02 if (i) the Company shall be disputing its obligation to make such
payment or perform such obligation and (ii) either (A) no final judgment relating to such dispute shall have been issued against
the Company that is in full force and effect and is not subject to further review, including a judgment that has become final by
reason of the expiration of the time within which a party may seek further appeal or review, or (B) in the event that a judgment
that is subject to further review or appeal has been issued, the Company shall in good faith be prosecuting an appeal or other
proceeding for review and a stay of execution shall have been obtained pending such appeal or review.

 

Section 15.04.         
Subrogation.

 

Senior Indebtedness shall not be deemed
to have been paid in full unless the holders thereof shall have received cash (or securities or other property satisfactory to
such holders) in full payment of such Senior Indebtedness then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness,
the Holders of the Debt Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive any further
payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness until
all amounts owing on the Debt Securities shall be paid in full; and such payments or distributions of cash, property or securities
received by the Holders of the Debt Securities, by reason of such subrogation, which otherwise would be paid or distributed to
the holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of Senior Indebtedness, it being understood 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 the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

 

If any payment or distribution to which
the Holders of the Debt Securities would otherwise have been entitled but for the provisions of this Article shall have been applied,
pursuant to the provisions of this Article, to the payment of amounts payable under Senior Indebtedness, then and in such case,
the Holders of the Debt Securities shall be entitled to receive from the holders of such Senior Indebtedness any payments or distributions
received by such holders of Senior Indebtedness in excess of the amount required to make payment to the extent required by Section 15.02,
or provision for payment, of such Senior Indebtedness.

 

    43

     

    

 

Section 15.05.         
Unconditional Obligation of the Company.

 

Nothing contained in this Article or
elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Debt Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among 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 Debt Securities 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 herein or therein prevent the

or securities of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order
or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization
proceedings are pending or upon a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee agent or other person
making such payment or distribution delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled

Upon the maturity of the principal of any
Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all matured principal of Senior Indebtedness and interest and

the Debt Securities or before any Debt Securities can be acquired by the Company or any sinking fund payment is made with respect
to the Debt Securities (except that required sinking fund payments may be reduced by Debt Securities acquired before such maturity
of such Senior Indebtedness).

 

Section 15.07.         
Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness.

 

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

 

Section 15.08.         
Notice to Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

 

The Company shall give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of
the Debt Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any other provision
of the Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making
of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the
Company, from a Holder or from a holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from any representative or representatives of such holder
and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled, subject to Section 9.01, in all
respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that, if prior to the fifth Business Day preceding
the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose, or in the event of the execution of
an instrument pursuant to Section 7.02 acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, then if prior to
the second Business Day preceding the date of such execution, the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys the
notice provided for in this Section, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee may, in its discretion,
receive such moneys and/or 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; provided, however, that no such application shall
affect the obligations under this Article of the persons receiving such moneys from the Trustee.

 

Section 15.09.         
Modification, Extension, Etc. of Senior Indebtedness.

 

The holders of Senior Indebtedness may,
without affecting in any manner the subordination of the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any,
on the Debt Securities, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, agree with the Company to change the
manner, place or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, any Senior Indebtedness, or amend
or supplement any instrument pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness is issued, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other
of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, all without notice
to or assent from the Holders or the Trustee.

 

Section 15.10.         
Trustee Has No Fiduciary Duty to Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

 

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness,
the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and objectives 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 shall
not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or deliver to the Holders or the Company or any other Person,
cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise.

Section 15.11.         
Paying Agents other than the Trustee.

 

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 such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition
to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Sections 15.07, 15.08 and 15.10 shall
not apply to the Company if it acts as Paying Agent.

 

Section 15.12.         
Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness Not Impaired.

 

No right of any present or future holder
of 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 15.13.         
This Article Not To Prevent Events of Default.

 

The failure to make a payment on account
of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Debt Securities by reason of any provision of this Article shall not be
construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of Section 8.01.

 

Section 15.14.         
Effect of Subordination Provisions; Termination.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, other than as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, all the provisions of this Indenture shall be subject
to the provisions of this Article, so far as the same may be applicable thereto.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, the provisions of this Article XV shall be of no further effect, and the Debt Securities shall no
longer be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment of Senior Indebtedness, if the Company shall have delivered to
the Trustee a notice to such effect. Any such notice delivered by the Company shall not be deemed to be a supplemental indenture
for purposes of Article XII.

 

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