		(f)	For
                                         the avoidance of doubt, once a Market Cap / Cash Balance Conversion Event no longer subsists,
                                         the Investor’s right to issue a Market Cap / Cash Balance Conversion Notice under
                                         clause 5.1(d) ceases immediately, however, the Company must comply with any Market Cap
                                         / Cash Balance Conversion Notice issued prior to that time.

 

		(g)	For
                                         greater certainty, upon the Company complying with the obligations in clause 5.1(c),
                                         the Company will have satisfied all obligations to pay the Amount Outstanding to Investor

                                         the Conversion Amount will be the Amount Outstanding in respect of the Convertible Security;

                                         provided, however, that if any amount of the 2015 Convertible Security Agreement is converted
                                         into Shares in such rolling 30 day period, the Conversion Amount set forth in this clause
                                         5.2(e) will be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis for such period;

                                         Amount, calculated as at the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the
                                         Conversion Shares are issued, by the relevant Conversion Price, provided that if the
                                         resultant number contains a fraction, such number will be rounded down to the next lowest
                                         whole number.

 

		(g)	On
                                         or prior to each Conversion Date, the Investor will provide the Company with a notice
                                         of the relevant Conversion Price applicable to the Conversion due to be effected on such
                                         Conversion Date, setting out the manner in which such Conversion Price was calculated

                                         to the end of the Lock-Up Period, Conversion Shares will be delivered as physical certificates
                                         bearing the legend contemplated forth in clause 5.2(c)(iii), but provided that where

                                         legend contemplated in clause 5.2(c)(iii); and

 

		(iv)	Investor
                                         shall provide all such certificates, declarations, and/or opinions reasonably required
                                         by the Company, reliance on which is required by Law in order for the Conversion Shares
                                         to be issued without United States legends attached as contemplated by the Parties and
                                         in reliance on the Company’s representation in Section 10.1.

are required. In the event any approvals of the TSX are conditional upon the Company subsequently filing additional information
or documentation with the TSX, the Company shall complete all such filings and the Investor shall cooperate to provide any required
documentation required to be provided by it in the prescribed time period.

 

		5.4	Limitation
                                         on Shares Issuable on Conversion

 

		(a)	Notwithstanding
                                         any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to the last paragraph of this clause
                                         5.4, the aggregate number of Investor’s Shares issuable upon Conversion, together
                                         with the number of Investor’s Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants, shall not
                                         exceed 24,339,125 Shares, as adjusted on a proportionate basis to reflect any Security
                                         Structure Event (the Share Maximum), unless and to the extent the Company
                                         has obtained approval by its shareholders for the issuance of additional Investor’s
                                         Shares in a manner and form required by the TSX, or has otherwise obtained the approval
                                         of the TSX to issue Shares in excess of the Share Maximum without shareholder approval.

 

		(b)	If
                                         in the opinion of the Investor it is likely that the issuance of Investor’s Shares
                                         upon a Conversion, together with the number of Investor’s Shares issued upon exercise
                                         of Warrants, would result in the issuance of a number of Shares in excess of the Share
                                         Maximum or result in the Investor becoming a “control person” (as defined
                                         in the Securities Act (British Columbia)), the Investor may on notice require that the
                                         Company call and hold a special or extraordinary meeting of shareholders to seek the
                                         required shareholder approval, which the Company shall hold within sixty (60) days of
                                         the date that the Investor has delivered notice to the Company.

 

		(c)	If
                                         the Share Maximum referred to in clause 5.4(a) above would be exceeded on a Conversion
                                         and the Company is unable to obtain the approval of its shareholders for the issuance
                                         of additional Investor’s Shares in excess of the Share Maximum, then without limiting
                                         any of the Investor’s other rights under this Agreement:

 

		(i)	the
                                         Investor may by written notice to the Company (Cash Conversion Notice)
                                         require the Company to pay a cash amount to the Investor equal to Y multiplied by $C,
                                         where:

 

Y
= the number of new Investor’s Shares required to be issued to the Investor in excess of the Share Maximum; and

 

$C
= the VWAP per Share on the date of issuance of the relevant Conversion Notice,

 

(Cash
Conversion Amount); and

 

     - 16 -

     

    

 

		(ii)	upon
                                         the Company receiving a Cash Conversion Notice from the Investor, the Company must within
                                         five (5) Business Days pay the Investor in immediately available funds the Cash Conversion
                                         Amount.

 

		(d)	Notwithstanding
                                         any right of Conversion hereunder, Investor will not be entitled to convert that portion
                                         of the Amount Outstanding representing the Total Interest Amount until such time as the
                                         relevant pro rata amount has accrued in accordance with this clause 5.4(d). For purposes
                                         of determining that portion of the Amount Outstanding represented by principal, fees
                                         and expenses and the Total Interest Amount in connection with Conversions, in all cases
                                         a Conversion will be deemed to apply first to the amounts constituting the principal
                                         amount, followed by amounts constituting fees and expenses and with the final balance
                                         of the Amount Outstanding representing the Total Interest Amount. The Total Interest
                                         Amount will accrue for purposes of this clause 5.4(d) in respect of the US$200,000 Total
                                         Interest Amount for the Convertible Security, in equal monthly increments of US$8,333.33
                                         commencing at the end of the first month following the issue of the Convertible Security
                                         and the end of each month thereafter for 24 months.

 

In
the event that a Conversion and/or exercise of Warrants would result in the Investor becoming an “Insider” (as defined
in TSX Rules) of the Company, such Conversion and/or exercise of Warrants will be postponed and will not be effective until the
TSX has approved a personal information form(s), or waived the requirement therefor, in respect of the Investor. In addition,
in the event that a Conversion and/or exercise of Warrants would “materially affect control” (as defined in TSX Rules)
of the Company, and/or result in the Investor becoming a “control person” (as defined in the Securities Act (British
Columbia)), such Conversion and/or exercise of Warrants will be postponed and will not be effective until the Parties comply with
all requirements under TSX Rules and Canadian Securities Laws, as applicable. For greater certainty, if a Conversion and/or exercise
of Warrants is postponed in accordance with this clause 5.4(d), such postponement will not constitute an Event of Default.

                                         TSX Rules.

                                         of failure to meet conditions

                                         to the Investor or its nominee without the prior written consent of the Investor if,

                                         the event the Company arranges to obtain any debt funding (including convertible debt)
                                         or other financial accommodation, which ranks senior to, or pari passu with, a Convertible
                                         Security, the Company must notify the Investor about such arrangements (in reasonable
                                         detail) (Debt Proceeds Notification), and:

 

		(i)	in
                                         the event the proceeds raised or received through such debt funding or financial accommodation
                                         (Debt Proceeds) is less than US$5,000,000, the Investor may, within 10
                                         Business Days of its receipt of the Debt Proceeds Notification, direct the Company to
                                         use up to 50% of the Debt Proceeds to repay the Amount Outstanding on the Convertible
                                         Security;

 

		(ii)	in
                                         the event the Debt Proceeds is at least US$5,000,000 but less than US$10,000,000, the

                                         direct the Company to use the Debt Proceeds to repay up to 50% of the outstanding Face
                                         Value of the Convertible Security; and

 

		(iii)	in
                                         the event the Debt Proceeds is US$10,000,000 or more, the Investor may, within 10 Business
                                         Days of its receipt of the Debt Proceeds Notification, direct the Company to use the
                                         Debt Proceeds to repay up to 70% of the outstanding Face Value of the Convertible Security.

 

		(c)	In
                                         the event the Investor directs the Company to make any repayment under clause 10.3(b)(i),
                                         10.3(b)(ii) or 10.3(b)(iii), the Company shall make such repayment within three (3) Business
                                         Days of its receipt of a written direction from the Investor, which direction may not
                                         be delivered to the Company until two (2) Business Days following actual receipt by the
                                         Company of the funds referred to in clause 10.3(b).

		10.4	Right
                                         of First Refusal

 

		(a)	The
                                         Company may not agree to, announce, proceed with, negotiate or complete any equity financing
                                         or convertible debt financing by way of a public offering or private placement of Shares
                                         or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Shares with one or more third parties
                                         (each, a “Subsequent Offering”), unless it has first offered a number
                                         of Shares or securities that is equal to no less than 100% of the Shares or securities
                                         exchangeable for or convertible into Shares in the proposed Subsequent Offering to the
                                         Investor on the same terms as the Subsequent Offering and has otherwise complied with
                                         this clause 10.4. For greater certainty, the term “Subsequent Offering” shall
                                         exclude the granting or exercising of stock options under any stock option plan established
                                         by the Company and approved by the TSX and holders of Shares of the Company.

 

		(b)	The
                                         Company must deliver a written notice (the “Priority Offering Notice”)
                                         to the Investor no less than forty-eight (48) hours prior to the time that it wishes
                                         to announce, proceed with or negotiate a Subsequent Offering, which notice must state
                                         all of the pertinent terms and conditions of the Subsequent Offering, including:

 

		(i)	the
                                         nature of the securities being offered;

 

		(ii)	the
                                         number of securities being offered;

 

		(iii)	the
                                         offering price in cash or the methodology for determining the offering price;

 

		(iv)	the
                                         proposed date for completion; and

 

		(v)	a
                                         statement of any regulatory and shareholder approvals that are required.

 

		(c)	Following
                                         the delivery of a Priority Offering Notice, the Company may then announce, proceed with,
                                         negotiate and complete the Subsequent Offering subject to TSX approval within the next
                                         90 days following the delivery of the Priority Offering Notice on terms and conditions
                                         no more favourable to the subscribers than those set out in the Priority Offering Notice.

 

		(d)	Within
                                         ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Priority Offering Notice, the Investor shall
                                         deliver to the Company a response in writing (the “Priority Offering Response
                                         Notice”) setting out at least the following information:

 

		(i)	whether
                                         the Investor will exercise its rights in this clause 10.4 in whole or in part;

 

		(ii)	specifying
                                         the number and percentage of securities it proposes to acquire on the same terms as the
                                         Subsequent Offering; and

 

		(iii)	the
                                         aggregate cash consideration that it shall be required to pay to the Company as a result
                                         of exercising its right in this section.

 

		(e)	Each
                                         Priority Offering Notice and Priority Offering Response Notice shall constitute a binding
                                         agreement by the Investor to subscribe for and take up, and by the Company to issue and
                                         sell to the Investor, subject to TSX approval the number of Shares or securities exchangeable
                                         for or convertible into Shares specified by the Investor in the Priority Offering Response
                                         Notice upon the terms and conditions specified in the Priority Offering Notice and shall
                                         be an obligation of the Company regardless of whether a Subsequent Offering has closed
                                         prior to the delivery of a Priority Offering Response Notice, provided however if a Subsequent
                                         Offering has closed prior to the delivery of a Priority Offering Response Notice, then
                                         the Company’s obligation to issue and sell to the Investor the number of Shares
                                         or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Shares specified by the Investor in
                                         the Priority Offering Response Notice upon the terms and conditions specified in the
                                         Priority Offering Notice shall be subject to approval of the TSX. The Company shall use
                                         its best efforts to include the securities to which the Investor is entitled under this
                                         clause 10.4 in its application to the TSX for the Subsequent Offering, or where not practicable,
                                         to use its best efforts to file such application in respect of the securities to which
                                         the Investor is entitled under this clause 10.4 as promptly as possible following the
                                         delivery of a Priority Offering Notice.

		(f)	In
                                         the event the only participant in the Subsequent Offering is the Investor or the Investor
                                         delivers a Priority Offering Response Notice after the closing of the Subsequent Offering,
                                         the closing shall take place at a mutually agreeable time.

 

If
the Investor fails to deliver a Priority Offering Response Notice within the time limits as stipulated in clause 10.4(d) or does
so but states that it shall not be acquiring any of the securities set forth in the Priority Offering Notice, the Company shall
then have 90 days following the delivery of the Priority Offering Notice to agree, announce, proceed with, negotiate or complete
a Subsequent Offering with any third party or parties but provided that:

 

		(i)	the
                                         nature of the security being offered to the third party or parties remains unchanged
                                         from that set out in the Priority Offering Notice;

 

		(ii)	the
                                         number of securities being offered to the third party or parties remains unchanged from
                                         that set out in the Priority Offering Notice; and

 

		(iii)	the
                                         offering price and terms of the offering are no more favourable to the third party or
                                         parties than that set out in the Priority Offering Notice,

 

and
if any of such conditions is not satisfied clause 10.4 shall again apply and the third party transaction will be considered a
new Subsequent Offering.

 

		(g)	For
                                         greater certainty, this clause 10.4 is intended to permit the Investor to increase its
                                         Pro Rata Interest to an amount greater than its Pro Rata Interest at the time that a
                                         Priority Offering Notice is delivered, should the Investor wish to exercise its rights
                                         hereunder, and to complete a subsequent investment in the Company on terms identical
                                         to those of any Subsequent Offering of the Company, but shall not impair the right of
                                         the Company to complete a Subsequent Offering provided the Company complies with the
                                         terms of this clause 10.4.

 

		10.5	Rights
                                         of Investor

 

The
right of the Investor to be issued Conversion Shares in accordance with clause 5 and otherwise under this Agreement, will not
confer on the Investor any entitlement to receive dividends or vote at a general meeting of shareholders of the Company.

 

		10.6	Compliance
                                         with Laws

 

		(a)	The
                                         Company and the Investor will each comply with all applicable Laws in all material respects.

 

		(b)	Except
                                         as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall make, in a timely manner, all filings
                                         that may be required under Canadian Securities Laws and US Securities Laws in connection
                                         with the Contemplated Transactions, including, without limitation, all filings required
                                         by the TSX and all filings required further to sections 6.1 and 6.3 of NI 45-106.

		10.7	TSX
                                         Listing

 

At
all times during the term of this Agreement (and provided that the Investor holds any Securities), the Company shall ensure that
the Shares remain listed on the TSX, provided that this covenant shall not prevent the Company from completing any transaction
which would result in the Company ceasing to be listed on the TSX so long as the holders of Shares receive securities of an entity
which is listed on a stock exchange in Canada or the United States or cash or the holders of the Shares have approved the transaction
in accordance with the requirements of Canadian Securities Laws, US Securities Laws and corporate laws, subject to the Company’s
compliance with its obligations in clause 10.8, if the Investor exercises its right in clause 10.8.

 

		10.8	Adjustments
                                         on Arrangements, Take-Overs and Changes of Control

 

If
the Company proposes an arrangement or is the subject of a take-over bid, which in either case would result in a Change of Control
Event that would also result in the Shares no longer being listed on the TSX, then the Investor may, but is not required to, at
any time up to five (5) Business Days prior to the date of completion of such proposed transaction, require that the Company cause
that other person, company or legal entity which is the counterparty to such arrangement or take-over bid, to assume all of the
obligations of the Company under this Agreement following the completion of such proposed transaction, including the obligation
to issue Conversion Shares. If the Investor exercises its right in this clause, then the Company shall cause that other person,
company or legal entity to enter into an assignment and/or novation agreement acceptable to the Investor acting reasonably, and
following such time, the Investor shall accept, in lieu of Shares, Conversion Shares, Convertible Security, or Warrants, an economically
equivalent number of shares, convertible securities and warrants issued by that other person, company, or legal entity in lieu
of the Shares, Conversion Shares, Convertible Security or Warrants to which the Investor is entitled to hereunder. The number
of Shares, Conversion Shares, Convertible Security, or Warrants to be issued shall be adjusted for the exchange ratio applicable
in the relevant arrangement or take-over bid, and the Investor shall have the right to consent to the accuracy of such adjustment.
If the Investor exercises its right in this clause, and the Company is unable to, or the other company does not, enter into an
assignment and/or novation acceptable to the Investor, then the failure to do so shall be considered an Event of Default.

 

		10.9	Register
                                         of Convertible Securities

 

The
Investor will, on behalf of the Company, as the Company’s attorney, maintain the Register of the Convertible Securities
during the term of this Agreement. The Investor will provide a copy of the Register of the Convertible Securities to the Company
upon request of the Company.

 

		10.10	Prohibited
                                         Transactions

 

Unless
agreed in writing between the Company and the Investor, from the date of execution of this Agreement until the date of termination
of this Agreement the Company shall not effect, or enter into an agreement to effect, any Prohibited Transaction unless the funds
raised from such Prohibited Transaction are utilised to repay the Amount Outstanding in full.

 

		10.11	No
                                         shorting

 

The
Investor will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, engage in any securities lending, short sales, hedging transactions or
enter into any swap or any other agreement, arrangement or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly,
the economic consequence of ownership of any Securities, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of
any Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise by delivery.

		(a)	The
                                         Investor may set off any of its obligations to the Company (whether or not due for payment),
                                         against any of the Company’s obligations to the Investor (whether or not due for
                                         payment) under this Agreement and/or any Transaction Document and/or under the 2015 Convertible

		(b)	The
                                         Investor may do anything necessary to effect any set-off undertaken in accordance with
                                         this clause 10.13 (including varying the date for payment of any amount payable by the

		(b)	any
                                         deduction or withholding for Tax or any other reason, unless a deduction or withholding
                                         is required by law,

 

except
as may otherwise be consented to by the Investor.

                                         Negative Covenants

                                         existence of such event or state of facts, where such occurrence, failure to occur, or
                                         the coming into existence of such event or state of facts relates to the Conversion of
                                         Shares, the listing of Shares on the TSX, a cease trade order relating to the Shares,

                                         where an Event of Default has occurred, for as long as such Event of Default continues,
                                         and the Closing Date or Conversion Date, as applicable, will be deemed to be postponed

                                         addition to the remedies set out in sub-clauses 14(a), 14(b) and 14(d), subject to compliance
                                         with clause 13, upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, the Investor

		(f)	Notwithstanding
                                         anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document,
                                         in addition to the rights of the Investor specified in this clause 14, upon an Event

                                         of 15% per annum (Interest Rate upon Default), which interest will accrue
                                         from the earliest date of the Event of Default on the outstanding Face Value and will
                                         be compounded monthly, for as long as the Event of Default will not have been remedied,
                                         except that the Interest Rate Upon Default will not apply if: (i) subsequent to the Event

                                         Shares set forth in clause 5.2 of this Agreement. The Company must pay this amount of
                                         interest on the Amount Outstanding on the Convertible Security to the Investor on a monthly

This
Agreement:

 

		(a)	may
                                         be terminated, without limiting the generality of clause 14, but subject to clause 13:

 

		(i)	by
                                         the Investor on the occurrence or existence of a Securities Termination Event or a Change

                                         date as the Parties agree in writing, provided that the right to terminate this Agreement
                                         under this clause 15.1(a)(iii) is not available to any Party:

 

		(A)	that

		(B)	whose
                                         failure to fulfil any obligation under this Agreement has been the principal cause of,
                                         or has resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur;

 

		(iv)	by

                                         to any other rights it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of
                                         a right of termination will not be an election of remedies.

 

		(b)	If

                                         to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document notwithstanding;

                                         to the Investor, unless the Investor terminates this Agreement as a result of one of

                                         total dollar traded volume of the Shares in the thirty (30) days immediately prior to
                                         the termination under clause 15.1(a)(i) is equal to or greater than US$500,000, and (iii)
                                         the Company otherwise complies in all respects with its obligation to issue Conversion
                                         Shares set forth in clause 5.2 of this Agreement (which obligation will survive termination).

                                         amount nor effect any Closing, provided that termination will not affect any undischarged
                                         obligation under this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt any obligation
                                         of the Company to issue Shares on exercise of Warrants and of any obligation of the Company
                                         to issue any additional Convertible Security.

 

		(d)	Nothing
                                         in this Agreement will be deemed to release any Party from any liability for any breach
                                         by such Party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or to impair the right of

                                         this Agreement.

provided,
however, that the Company shall not indemnify any Investor Indemnified Person from, or hold any Investor Indemnified Person harmless
against, any Losses that result solely from:

 

		(vi)	such
                                         Investor Indemnified Person’s breach of any representation or warranty contained
                                         in this Agreement, or

 

		(vii)	such

                                         for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction
                                         of all Losses that is permissible under applicable law.

 

		(c)	To
                                         the extent that any amount payable to an Investor Indemnified Person in accordance with
                                         this clause 16.2 is subject to Tax or withholding, then, without limiting clause 10.17
                                         or clause 11, the Company shall increase the amount payable to the Investor Indemnified
                                         Person by such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that after making the allowance
                                         for any Tax that may be payable, the Investor Indemnified Person receives the full amount
                                         required to be paid before giving effect to such allowance for Tax.

 

		(d)	Each
                                         indemnity set out in this Agreement:

 

		(i)	is
                                         a continuing obligation, independent of the Company’s other obligations under this
                                         Agreement;

 

		(ii)	continues
                                         notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement;

 

		(iii)	constitutes
                                         a liability of the Company separate and independent from any other liability under this
                                         Agreement and under any other agreement; and

 

		(iv)	will
                                         survive, and continue in full force and effect, in accordance with clause 16.1.

 

		(e)	The
                                         Company acknowledges that the indemnity given under this clause 16.2 is directly enforceable
                                         against it by any Investor Indemnified Person. The Investor holds the benefit of this
                                         clause 16.2 on trust for any Investor Indemnified Person.

 

		17.	Miscellaneous

 

		17.1	Time
                                         of the essence

		17.3	Remedies
                                         and injunctive relief

 

		(a)	The
                                         rights and remedies of the Investor set out in this Agreement and the other Transaction
                                         Documents are in addition to all other rights and remedies given to the Investor by law
                                         or otherwise.

 

		(b)	The
                                         Company acknowledges that:

 

		(i)	monetary
                                         damages alone would not be adequate compensation to the Investor for a breach by the
                                         Company of this Agreement; and

 

		(ii)	the
                                         Investor may seek an injunction or an order for specific performance from a court of
                                         competent jurisdiction if:

 

		(A)	the
                                         Company fails to comply or threatens not to comply with this Agreement; or

 

		(B)	the
                                         Investor has reason to believe that the Company will not comply with this Agreement.

 

		17.4	Adjustments

 

		(a)	Each
                                         time when a Security Structure Event occurs, the Conversion Price will be reduced or,
                                         as the case may be, increased, in the same proportion as the issued capital of the Company
                                         is, as the case may be, consolidated or subdivided, provided that the adjustment may
                                         not be greater than an amount that is equal to the difference between: (i) the trading
                                         price of the underlying securities immediately prior to such underlying securities trading
                                         on an “ex-distribution” basis, and (ii) the trading price of the underlying
                                         securities immediately after the underlying securities have commenced trading on an “ex-distribution”
                                         basis.

 

		(b)	The
                                         intent of this clause 17.4 is to maintain the relative benefit and burden to the Investor
                                         and the Company of their respective economic bargains.

 

		(c)	When
                                         the Company becomes aware of a fact that may give rise to an adjustment of the Conversion
                                         Price, the Company must promptly notify the Investor of the specifics of the fact that
                                         may give rise to such adjustment.

                                         obligations under this Agreement at least five (5) Business Days prior to the assignment
                                         or novation taking effect.

		(e)	Nothing
                                         in this clause 17.5 will be deemed to prevent the Investor from assigning, transferring,
                                         encumbering or otherwise dealing with its rights under, or in connection with, the Investor’s
                                         Shares or Warrants without the consent of any person, subject to the Investor’s

                                         Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time in the sole discretion
                                         of the Holder by delivery to the Corporation at its principal office in Colorado of a
                                         written notice of exercise in the form attached as Schedule A hereto prior to the Expiry
                                         Time specifying the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrants are then

                                         to the Expiry Time, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate to the Holder in the
                                         same form as this Warrant Certificate with appropriate changes, such certificate to be
                                         delivered by courier to the Holder concurrently with the delivery by courier to the Holder
                                         of the certificates representing the Warrant Shares acquired on exercise.

		(b)	Upon
                                         due exercise of the Warrants by the Holder, the Warrant Shares so subscribed for shall
                                         be deemed to have been issued as fully paid and non-assessable shares and the person
                                         to whom such Warrant Shares are to be issued shall be deemed to have become the holder
                                         of record of such Warrant Shares on the date of exercise unless the transfer books of
                                         the Corporation shall be closed on such date, in which case the Warrant Shares so subscribed
                                         for shall be deemed to have been issued and such person shall be deemed to have become
                                         the holder of record of such Warrant Shares on the date on which such transfer books
                                         were reopened and such Warrant Shares shall be issued at the Exercise Price in effect
                                         on the date of exercise.

 

		(c)	Notwithstanding
                                         the partial exercise of the Warrants by the Holder, the Warrants may be exercised at
                                         any time (and from time to time) prior to the Expiry Time for all or any part of the
                                         Warrant Shares which, prior to such time, have not been issued to the Holder. The Holder
                                         will be deemed to have represented and warranted its compliance with the re-sale and
                                         transfer restrictions set forth in Section 19(b) below upon the exercise of any Warrants
                                         in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, any U.S. Person.

 

		(d)	When
                                         the transfer books of the Corporation have been opened for three (3) Business Days after
                                         the due exercise or partial exercise of the Warrants, the Corporation shall use its reasonable
                                         best efforts to cause a certificate evidencing the number of Warrant Shares so subscribed
                                         for to be delivered by courier to the person in whose name such Warrant Shares are to
                                         be issued (as specified in the notice of exercise) at the address specified in the notice
                                         of exercise, within five (5) Business Days thereafter or shall cause the Warrant Shares
                                         to be entered into a direct registration or other electronic book-entry system if no
                                         certificates are issued, provided that, if no certificates are issued, such Warrant Shares
                                         may be issued with a restricted CUSIP.

 

		(e)	The
                                         Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act.
                                         The Warrants may not be exercised within the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S.
                                         Person unless registered or exempt from the registration requirements thereunder.

 

		(f)	Subject
                                         to the terms hereof, this Warrant Certificate may be transferred, subject to the terms
                                         set forth in the Transfer Form attached hereto. No transfer of this Warrant Certificate
                                         shall be effective unless this Warrant Certificate is accompanied by a duly executed
                                         Transfer Form or other instrument of transfer in such form as the Corporation may from
                                         time to time prescribe, together with such evidence of the genuineness of each endorsement,
                                         execution and authorization and of other matters as may be required by the Corporation,
                                         and delivered to the Corporation. No transfer of this Warrant Certificate shall be made
                                         if, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, such transfer would result in the violation
                                         of any applicable securities laws. Subject to the foregoing, the Corporation shall issue
                                         and mail, as soon as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days of the
                                         receipt by the Corporation of this Warrant Certificate and the Transfer Form, a new Warrant
                                         Certificate (with or without legends as determined by the Corporation) registered in
                                         the name of the transferee or as the transferee may direct and shall take all other necessary
                                         actions to effect the transfer as directed.

 

		(g)	In
                                         the event that an exercise of Warrants would result in the Holder becoming an “Insider”
                                         (as defined in the TSX Company Manual) of the Corporation, such exercise of Warrants
                                         will be postponed and will not be effective until the TSX has approved a personal information
                                         form, or waived the requirement therefor, in respect of the Holder. In addition, in the
                                         event that an exercise of Warrants would “materially affect control” (as
                                         defined in the TSX Company Manual) of the Corporation, such exercise of Warrants will
                                         be postponed and will not be effective until the parties comply with any requirements
                                         under the TSX Company Manual, if any.

 

		3.	Rights
                                         of Holder Before Exercise of Warrants

 

The
Holder shall not have any rights whatsoever as a shareholder in respect of the Warrant Shares until the Warrants are exercised,
in whole or in part, and payment for the Warrant Shares thereby purchased has been made.

		4.	Adjustments
                                         to Number or Kind of Securities Issuable on Exercise

 

		(a)	If,
                                         at any time prior to the Expiry Time, there occurs:

 

		(i)	a
                                         reclassification or redesignation of the Common Shares or any other capital reorganization
                                         other than a Common Share Reorganization (as defined below); or

 

		(ii)	a
                                         consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation
                                         or entity or an arrangement with any other corporation or entity which results in the
                                         cancellation, reclassification or redesignation of the Common Shares or a change or conversion
                                         of the Common Shares into other shares or securities or the holders of the Common Shares
                                         becoming entitled to receive shares or other securities of the other corporation or entity,
                                         or the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another
                                         corporation or entity or the Corporation being controlled (within the meaning of the
                                         Income Tax Act (Canada)) by another corporation or entity;

 

(any
such event being herein called a “Capital Reorganization”), then, immediately upon the effective time of such
Capital Reorganization and at all times thereafter, a Holder who exercises its right to subscribe for Warrant Shares shall be
entitled to be issued and receive and shall accept for the same aggregate consideration, upon such exercise, in lieu of the number
of Warrant Shares to which it was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Warrants, the kind and aggregate number of shares
or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the corporation or other entity resulting from such Capital Reorganization
or any other corporation that the Holder would have been entitled to be issued and receive upon such Capital Reorganization if,
immediately prior to the effective time thereof, it had been the registered holder of the number of Warrant Shares to which it
was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

		(b)	If
                                         necessary as a result of any Capital Reorganization, appropriate adjustments shall be
                                         made in the application of the provisions of this section with respect to the rights
                                         and interest thereafter of the Holder to the end that the provisions set forth in this
                                         section shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably
                                         be practicable in relation to any shares or other securities or property thereafter issuable
                                         and deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants.

 

		(c)	If
                                         at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time any adjustment or readjustment
                                         in the Exercise Price shall occur pursuant to the provisions of subsection 5(a), then
                                         the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the subsequent exercise of the Warrants shall
                                         be simultaneously adjusted or readjusted, as the case may be, by multiplying the number
                                         of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such
                                         adjustment or readjustment by a fraction which shall be the reciprocal of the fraction
                                         employed in the adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price.

 

		5.	Adjustment
                                         of Exercise Price

 

		(a)	If,
                                         at any time prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation shall:

 

		(i)	subdivide
                                         the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;

 

		(ii)	consolidate
                                         the outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of shares; or

 

		(iii)	make
                                         a distribution (other than a distribution referred to in subsections 4(b) or 4(c) of
                                         this Warrant Certificate) to the holders of all or substantially all of the Common Shares
                                         payable in Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares;

 

    - 55 - 

    

    

 

(any
such event being herein called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted,
effective immediately after the effective date or record date at which holders of Common Shares are determined for the purposes
of the Common Share Reorganization, by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record
date by a fraction of which:

 

		A.	the
                                         numerator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or
                                         record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization; and

 

		B.	the
                                         denominator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving
                                         effect to such Common Shares Reorganization, including, without limitation, in the case
                                         of a distribution of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, the
                                         number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding if such securities had been
                                         exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such date.

 

To
the extent that any adjustment in the Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this subsection (a) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation
of a record date for the distribution of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, the Exercise Price shall
be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange or conversion right to the Exercise Price which would
then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable pursuant to such exchangeable
or convertible securities after such expiration.

 

		(b)	If,
                                         at any time prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the
                                         issue to the holders of all or substantially all of the Common Shares of rights, options
                                         or warrants under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more
                                         than 45 days after the record date for such issue (which period is herein called the
                                         “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or securities
                                         exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at a price per share to the holder
                                         (or, in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, at
                                         an exchange or conversion price per share) of less than 95% of the Current Market Price
                                         of the Common Shares on such record date (any such event being herein called a “Rights
                                         Offering”), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective immediately after
                                         the record date, to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on
                                         such date by a fraction of which:

 

		(i)	the
                                         numerator shall be the aggregate of:

 

		(A)	the
                                         number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date for the Rights Offering; and

 

		(B)	the
                                         number determined by dividing:

 

		(I)	either

 

		(x)	the
                                         product of the number of Common Shares offered for issue during the Rights Period upon
                                         exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at
                                         which such Common Shares are offered; or

 

		(y)	the
                                         product of the exchange or conversion price of the securities so offered and the number
                                         of Common Shares for or into which the securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering
                                         are exchangeable or convertible;

 

as
the case may be, by;

 

		(II)	the
                                         Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering;
                                         and

 

		(ii)	the
                                         denominator shall be the aggregate of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such
                                         record date and the number of Common Shares offered pursuant to such Rights Offering
                                         (or the number of Common Shares into which the securities so offered may be exchanged
                                         or converted).

 

    - 56 - 

    

    

 

If
by the terms of the rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection (b), there is more than one purchase, conversion
or exchange price per Common Share, the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription
or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, shall be calculated for purposes
of the adjustment on the basis of the lowest purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, as the case may be. Any
Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to
be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. To the extent that any adjustment in the Exercise Price occurs pursuant
to this subsection (b) as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date or the distribution of rights, options or
warrants referred to in this subsection (b), the Exercise Price shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant
exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares
actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration.

 

		(c)	If,
                                         at any time prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation shall issue or distribute to the
                                         holders of all or substantially all of the Common Shares:

 

		(i)	Common
                                         Shares or other securities of the Corporation including, without limitation, rights,
                                         options or warrants to acquire Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible
                                         into Common Shares or any property or asset of the Corporation, (other than rights, options
                                         or warrants pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled, during a period
                                         expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issue, to subscribe for
                                         or purchase Common Shares at a price per share (or in the case of securities exchangeable
                                         for or convertible into Common Shares at an exchange or conversion price per share at
                                         the date of issue of such securities) of at least 95% of the Current Market Price of
                                         the Common Shares on such record date), and including, without limitation, evidences
                                         of indebtedness, or

 

		(ii)	any
                                         property or other assets including, without limitation, cash;

 

and
such issuance or distribution does not constitute a Rights Offering or a Common Share Reorganization (any such issuance or distribution
being herein called a “Special Distribution”), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective immediately
after the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution, to a price
determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on the record date of the Special Distribution by a fraction of which:

 

		(A)	the
                                         numerator shall be the difference between:

 

		(I)	the
                                         product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date and the Current
                                         Market Price of the Common Shares on the record date; and

 

		(II)	the
                                         fair market value to the holders of Common Shares, as determined by the board of directors
                                         of the Corporation acting reasonably, of the securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences
                                         of indebtedness or other assets issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and

 

		(B)	the
                                         denominator shall be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record
                                         date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the record date.

 

Any
Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any subsidiary shall be deemed not to be outstanding for
the purpose of such computation. To the extent that any adjustment in the Exercise Price occurs pursuant to this subsection (c)
as a result of the fixing by the Corporation of a record date for the distribution of exchangeable or convertible securities or
rights, options or warrants referred to in this subsection (c), the Exercise Price shall be readjusted immediately after the expiration
of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if the fair market
value had been determined on the basis of the number of Common Shares issued and remaining issuable pursuant to such exchangeable
or convertible securities immediately after such expiration.

                                         to the other provisions of this section 6, any adjustment made pursuant to sections 4
                                         or 5 are cumulative and shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in
                                         either of such sections shall occur.

 

		(b)	In
                                         any case where an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for
                                         an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such
                                         event:

 

		(i)	issuing
                                         to the Holder, by reason of the adjustment required by such event, the additional Warrant
                                         Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants after such record date and before the occurrence
                                         of such event; and

 

		(ii)	delivering
                                         to the Holder any distributions declared with respect to such additional Warrant Shares
                                         after the exercise of the Warrants and before such event;

 

provided,
however, that the Corporation shall deliver to the Holder an appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder’s right, upon
the occurrence of the event requiring the adjustment, to an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants and to such distributions declared with respect to any such additional Warrant Shares issuable on
the exercise of the Warrants.

 

		(c)	No
                                         adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless the adjustment would result
                                         in a change of at least 1% in the Exercise Price then in effect and no adjustment shall
                                         be made in the number of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants unless
                                         it would result in a change of at least one one-hundredth of a Warrant Share, provided,
                                         however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this subsection (c)
                                         would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into
                                         account in any subsequent adjustment.

 

		(d)	No
                                         adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number or kind of securities issuable on exercise
                                         of the Warrants shall be made in respect of any event described in sections 4 or 5 if
                                         the Holder is entitled to participate in such event (subject to TSX acceptance) on the
                                         same terms mutatis mutandis as if the Holder had exercised the Warrants prior to or on
                                         the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of such event.

 

		(e)	If
                                         the Corporation shall set a record date to determine shareholders for the purpose of
                                         entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or purchase
                                         rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any
                                         such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, legally abandon its plan
                                         to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution or subscription or purchase rights, no
                                         adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise
                                         of these Warrants shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date.

 

		(f)	In
                                         the absence of a resolution of the directors of the Corporation fixing a record date
                                         for a stock dividend or other distribution comprising a Common Share Reorganization,
                                         a Rights Offering or a Special Distribution, the Corporation shall be deemed to have
                                         fixed as the record date therefor the effective date of such event.

 

		(g)	The
                                         Corporation will not, whether pursuant to an adjustment under sections 4 and 5 or any
                                         other circumstances, be obligated to issue any fraction of a Warrant Share on any exercise
                                         or partial exercise of the Warrants. If any fractional interest in a Warrant Share would,
                                         except for the provisions of this section 5(g), be issuable upon the exercise or partial
                                         exercise of the Warrants, the number of Warrant Shares issuable shall be rounded down
                                         to the nearest whole number.

 

		(h)	In
                                         the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in sections
                                         4 or 5, such question shall conclusively be determined by a firm of reputable chartered
                                         accountants appointed by the Corporation, which accountants may be the Corporation’s
                                         auditors. Such accountants shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation
                                         and such determination shall be binding upon the Corporation and the Holder.

		7.	Proceedings
                                         Prior to Action Requiring Adjustment

 

		(a)	As
                                         a condition precedent to the taking of any action that would require an adjustment pursuant
                                         to sections 4 or 5, the Corporation shall take or cause to be taken all such action as,
                                         in the opinion of counsel of the Corporation, may be necessary in order that the Holder
                                         shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of the Warrants, the shares or other securities
                                         or property provided for under the provisions hereof.

 

		(b)	Adjustments
                                         to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant
                                         Certificate may be subject to the prior approval of the Exchange.

 

		8.	Notice

 

At
least twenty-one days prior to any record date or effective date, as the case may be, for any event which requires or might require
an adjustment in any of the rights of the Holder under this Warrant Certificate, including the Exercise Price and the number of
Warrant Shares that are purchasable under this Warrant Certificate, the Corporation will deliver to the Holder, at the Holder’s
registered address, a certificate of the Corporation specifying the particulars of such event and, if determinable, the required
adjustment and the calculation of such adjustment. In case any adjustment has been given that is not then determinable, the Corporation
will promptly after such adjustment is determinable deliver to the Holder, at the Holder’s registered address, a certificate
providing the calculation of such adjustment. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that the register of transfers and share
transfer books for the Warrant Shares will be open, and that the Corporation will not take any action that might deprive the Holder
of the opportunity of exercising the rights of subscription contained in this Warrant Certificate, during such twenty-one day
period.

 

		9.	Replacement

 

Upon
receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant Certificate
and, if requested by the Corporation, upon delivery of a bond of indemnity satisfactory to the Corporation (or, in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate), the Corporation will issue to the Holder a replacement certificate (containing
the same terms and conditions as this Warrant Certificate).

 

		10.	Covenants

 

The
Corporation covenants with the Holder that so long as any obligations of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate remain
outstanding:

 

		(a)	it
                                         will use its reasonable best efforts to at all times maintain its existence; will carry
                                         on and conduct its business in a prudent manner in accordance with industry standards
                                         and good business practice, and will keep or cause to be kept proper books of account
                                         in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, subject to the completion
                                         of a Capital Reorganization in accordance with subsection 10(g) below;

 

		(b)	it
                                         will cause the certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares, from time to time, subscribed
                                         and paid for, upon the exercise of the Warrants, to be duly issued and delivered in accordance
                                         with the conditions hereof or cause such Warrant Shares to be entered into a direct registration
                                         or other electronic book-entry system if no certificates are issued, provided that, if
                                         no certificates are issued, such Warrant Shares may be issued with a restricted CUSIP;

 

		(c)	all
                                         Warrant Shares which shall be issued upon exercise of the Warrants and payment of the
                                         Exercise Price shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares;

 

		(d)	it
                                         will reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Warrant Shares for the purpose
                                         of enabling it to satisfy its obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon the exercise of
                                         the Warrants;

 

    - 59 - 

    

    

 

		(e)	it
                                         will maintain the listing of the Common Shares on the Exchange and the status of the
                                         Corporation as a reporting issuer not in default and otherwise remain in full compliance
                                         with the periodic reporting and other substantive requirements under the securities legislation
                                         of each of the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New
                                         Brunswick until the Expiry Time unless the Corporation shall become merged into, or amalgamated
                                         with, or otherwise acquired by, another issuer and the shareholders of the Corporation
                                         shall receive cash from or publicly traded shares of such other issuer;

 

		(f)	except
                                         as required by law, it will not close its transfer books or take any other action which
                                         might deprive the Holder of the opportunity of exercising its right to subscribe for
                                         Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrant during the period of twenty-one days after the
                                         giving of a notice required by section 8 or unduly restrict such opportunity;

 

		(g)	it
                                         shall not complete or facilitate a Capital Reorganisation if the effect of such Capital
                                         Reorganisation is that:

 

		(i)	all
                                         or substantially all of its assets become the property of, or are under the control of,
                                         or it is controlled (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) by, any other
                                         person (an “Acquiring Person”); and

 

		(ii)	holders
                                         of Common Shares receive any other security in replacement of, or in addition to, their
                                         Common Shares;

 

unless,
at or prior to or contemporaneously with the effective time of such Capital Reorganisation, the Corporation and the Acquiring
Person shall have executed such instruments and done such things as the Corporation, acting reasonably, considers necessary or
advisable to establish that upon the consummation of such transaction:

 

		(iii)	the
                                         Acquiring Person will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Corporation
                                         under this Warrant Certificate, and

 

		(iv)	the
                                         Warrant and the terms set forth in this Warrant Certificate will be a valid and binding
                                         obligation of the Acquiring Person entitling the Holder, as against the Acquiring Person,
                                         to all the rights of the Holder under this Warrant Certificate.

 

The
Acquiring Person shall possess, and from time to time may exercise, each and every right and power of the Corporation under this
Warrant in the name of the Corporation or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision hereof required to be done or performed
by any director or officer of the Corporation may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers
of the Acquiring Person.

TO INSERT THE DATE THAT IS 4 MONTHS AND ONE DAY FROM THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THE WARRANTS, E.G. THE STATUTORY HOLD PERIOD IN CANADA].

 

“THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE (“TSX”); HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES
CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TSX SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY, ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING
SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TSX.”

 

The
Holder understands and acknowledges that, until such time as the Warrant Shares are no longer restricted securities pursuant to
Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act, the Warrant Shares may not be offered or sold or otherwise transferred, directly
or indirectly, in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person, and it will not deposit any of the
Warrant Shares with Cede & Co. or any successor thereto, nor will it transfer or sell any Warrant Shares over the facilities
of the OTC Markets Group, Inc. including the OTCQX International and it will also cause any nominee holding the Warrant Shares
on its behalf to comply with the foregoing re-sale and transfer restrictions. In addition, if the Warrants are exercised in the
United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person, the Holder exercising such Warrants will be deemed to have represented to the
Corporation that the Holder has implemented appropriate internal controls and procedures to ensure that the Warrant Shares shall
be properly identified in its records as restricted securities under the U.S. Securities Act that are subject to the re-sale and
transfer restrictions set forth herein notwithstanding the absence of a U.S. restrictive legend or a definitive physical certificate,
as contemplated by the parties and in reliance on the foregoing representation of the Holder.

required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange on which Securities of that series may be listed, or to conform to usage. 

Section 2.03    Denominations: Provisions for Payment. 

The Securities shall be issuable as registered Securities and in the denominations of one thousand U.S. dollars ($1,000) or any integral
multiple thereof, subject to Section 2.01(a)(13). The Securities of a particular series shall bear interest payable on the dates and at the rate specified with respect to that series. Subject to Section 2.01(a)(23), the principal of and
the interest on the Securities of any series, as well as any premium thereon in case of redemption or repurchase thereof prior to maturity, and any cash amount due upon conversion or exchange thereof, shall be payable in the coin or currency of the
United States of America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Interest on the Securities shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. 

The interest installment on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for
Securities of that series shall be paid to the Person in whose name said Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment. In the event that any Security
of a particular series or portion thereof is called for redemption and the redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Security will be
paid upon presentation and surrender of such Security as provided in Section 3.03. 
 Any interest on any Security that is payable, but
is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of the same series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular record

  
 8 

 date by virtue of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the
Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below: 
 (1)    The Company may
make payment of any Defaulted Interest on Securities to the Persons in whose names such Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered in the Security Register at the close of business on a special record date for the payment
of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the
same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements 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 not be more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify
the Company of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be sent, to each Securityholder 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 sent as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such
Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered in the Security Register on such special record date. 

(2)    The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any Securities in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice 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. 
 Unless otherwise set forth in a Board Resolution or one
or more indentures supplemental hereto establishing the terms of any series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the term “regular record date” as used in this Section with respect to a series of Securities and any Interest
Payment Date for such series shall mean either the fifteenth day of the month immediately preceding the month in which an Interest Payment Date established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest Payment
Date is the first day of a month, or the first day of the month in which an Interest Payment Date established for such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof shall occur, if such Interest Payment Date is the fifteenth day of a month, whether or
not such date is a Business Day. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security of a series delivered under this
Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security of such series shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Security. 

Section 2.04    Execution and Authentications. 

The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Company by one of its Officers. Signatures may be in the form of a manual or facsimile
signature. 

  
 9 

 The Company may use the facsimile signature of any Person who shall have been an Officer (at
the time of execution), notwithstanding the fact that at the time the Securities shall be authenticated and delivered or disposed of such Person shall have ceased to be such an officer of the Company. The Securities may contain such notations,
legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication by the Trustee. 

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated manually by an authorized signatory of the Trustee, or by an Authenticating Agent. Such
signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. At any time and from time to time after the execution
and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, signed
by an Officer, and the Trustee in accordance with such written order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

Company’s delivery of any such authentication order to the Trustee at any time after the initial issuance of Securities under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust
Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, (1) an Opinion of Counsel or reliance letter and (2) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the execution, authentication and delivery of such
Securities are in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if
the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 

Section 2.05    Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 

(a)    Securities of any series may be exchanged upon presentation thereof at the office or agency of the Company
designated for such purpose, for other Securities of such series of authorized denominations, and for a like aggregate principal amount, upon payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation thereto, all as
provided in this Section. In respect of any Securities so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange therefor the Security or Securities of the same series
that the Securityholder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive, bearing numbers not contemporaneously outstanding. 

(b)    The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, at its office or agency designated for such purpose a register
or registers (herein referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall register the Securities and the transfers of Securities as in this Article provided and
which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. The registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and transfer of Securities as herein provided shall be appointed as authorized by Board Resolution or Supplemental
Indenture (the “Security Registrar”). 

  
 10 

 Upon surrender for transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company
designated for such purpose, the Company shall execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Security or Securities of the same series as the Security presented for
a like aggregate principal amount.

so required by the Company or the Security Registrar) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company or the Security Registrar, duly executed by the registered holder or by such holder’s duly authorized
attorney in writing. 
 (c)    Except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution,
and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental to this Indenture, no service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Securities, or issue of new Securities in case
of partial redemption of any series or repurchase, conversion or exchange of less than the entire principal amount of a Security, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in relation
thereto, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.06, Section 3.03(b) and Section 9.04 not involving any transfer. 

(d)    The Company and the Security Registrar shall not be required (i) to issue, exchange or register the
transfer of any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the sending of a notice of redemption of less than all the Outstanding Securities of the same series and ending at the close of business on the
day of such sending, nor (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series or portions thereof called for redemption or surrendered for repurchase, but not validly withdrawn, other than the unredeemed portion of any such
Securities being redeemed in part or not surrendered for repurchase, as the case may be. The provisions of this Section 2.05 are, with respect to any Global Security, subject to Section 2.11 hereof. 

The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under
this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require
delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with
the express requirements hereof. 
 Section 2.06    Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
temporary Securities (printed, lithographed or typewritten) of any authorized denomination. Such temporary Securities shall be substantially in 

  
 11 

 
the form of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined
by the Company. Every temporary Security of any series shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities of such
series. Without unnecessary delay the Company will execute and will furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon any or all temporary Securities of such series may be surrendered in exchange therefor (without charge to the
Securityholders), at the office or agency of the Company designated for the purpose, and the Trustee shall authenticate and such office or agency shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal amount of
definitive Securities of such series, unless the Company advises the Trustee to the effect that definitive Securities need not be executed and furnished until further notice from the Company. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of such
series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Section 2.07    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Securities. 

In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company (subject to the next
succeeding sentence) shall execute, and upon the Company’s request the Trustee (subject as aforesaid) shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and
substitution for the mutilated Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Security so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Security shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity
as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of the
applicant’s Security and of the ownership thereof. The Trustee may authenticate any such substituted Security and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the Company. Upon the issuance of any substituted
Security, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

In case any Security that has matured or is about to mature shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, instead
of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or
indemnity as they may require to save them harmless, and, in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Company and the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof. 

Every replacement Security issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the
Company whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities of the same series duly issued hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement 

  
 12 

 
or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities, and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) any and all other rights or remedies, notwithstanding any law or statute existing or
hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 

Section 2.08    Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, repurchase, exchange, registration of transfer or conversion shall, if
surrendered to the Company or any paying agent (or any other applicable agent), be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it, and no Securities shall be issued in lieu thereof except as
expressly required or permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. On request of the Company at the time of such surrender, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company canceled Securities held by the Trustee. In the absence of such request the
Trustee may dispose of canceled Securities in accordance with its standard procedures and deliver a certificate of disposition to the Company. If the Company shall otherwise acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate
as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.09    Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and the holders of the Securities any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Indenture, or under any covenant, condition or provision herein contained; all such covenants, conditions and provisions being for the
sole benefit of the parties hereto and of the holders of the Securities. 

Section 2.10    Authenticating Agent. 

So long as any of the Securities of any series remain Outstanding there may be an Authenticating Agent for any or all such series of Securities
which the Trustee shall have the right to appoint. Said Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon exchange, transfer or partial redemption, repurchase or conversion
thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. All references in this Indenture to the authentication of
Securities by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating Agent for such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall be a corporation that has a combined capital and surplus, as most
recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it is organized or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under such laws to conduct such business
and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately. 

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at
any time (and upon request by the 

  
 13 

 
Company shall) terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon resignation, termination or cessation
of eligibility of any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may appoint an eligible successor Authenticating Agent 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 as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent pursuant hereto. 

Section 2.11    Global Securities. 

(a)    If the Company shall establish pursuant to Section 2.01 that the Securities of a particular series are
to be issued as a Global Security, then the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.04, authenticate and deliver, a Global Security that (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to
the aggregate principal amount of, all of the Outstanding Securities of such series, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the
Depositary’s instruction (or if the Depositary names the Trustee as its custodian, retained by the Trustee), and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11 of the
Indenture, this Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.” 

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05, the Global Security of a series may be transferred, in
whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 2.05, only to another nominee of the Depositary for such series, or to a successor Depositary for such series selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor
Depositary. 
 (c)    If at any time the Depositary for a series of the Securities notifies the Company that it
is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such series or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor
Depositary for such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Company has
received a request from the Depositary or from the Trustee, this Section 2.11 shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of such series and the Company will execute, and subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee will authenticate and
deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global
Security. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be represented by a Global Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall no longer apply to the Securities of such
series. In such event the Company will execute and, subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate evidencing such determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in
definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security of such series in exchange for such Global Security. Upon the exchange of the Global
Security for such Securities in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive 

  
 14 

 
registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.11(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant
to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. 

Section 2.12    CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any
notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly
notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 
 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES AND SINKING FUND PROVISIONS 

Section 3.01    Redemption. 

The Company may redeem the Securities of any series issued hereunder on and after the dates and in accordance with the terms established for
such series pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof. 
 Section 3.02    Notice of
Redemption. 
 (a)    In case the Company shall desire to exercise such right to redeem all or, as the case
may be, a portion of the Securities of any series in accordance with any right the Company reserved for itself to do so pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the Company shall, or shall cause the Trustee to, give notice of such redemption to holders
of the Securities of such series to be redeemed by mailing, first class postage prepaid (or with regard to any Global Security held in book entry form, by electronic mail in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary), a notice of
such redemption not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days before the date fixed for redemption of that series to such Securityholders, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed. Any notice that is mailed in the
manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered holder receives the notice. In any case, failure duly to give such notice to the holder of any Security of any series designated for
redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities of such series or any other series. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the
expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with any such restriction. 

  
 15 

 Each such notice of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including CUSIP
numbers, if any), specify the date fixed for redemption and the redemption price at which Securities of that series are to be redeemed, and shall state that payment of the redemption price of such Securities to be redeemed will be made at the office
or agency of the Company, upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, that from and after said date interest will cease to accrue and that the
redemption is from a sinking fund, if such is the case. If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the notice to the holders of Securities of that series to be redeemed in part shall specify the particular Securities to be so
redeemed. 
 In case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice that relates to such Security shall state the portion of the
principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and shall state that on and after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

 (b)    If less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee at
least 45 days’ notice (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date fixed for redemption as to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the series to be redeemed, and thereupon the Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected, by lot, on a pro rata basis, or in such other manner as the Company shall deem appropriate and fair in its discretion and that may provide for the selection of a portion or portions (equal to one thousand U.S. dollars
($1,000) or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of such Securities of a denomination larger than $1,000, the Securities to be redeemed and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers of the Securities to
be redeemed, in whole or in part. The Company may, if and whenever it shall so elect, by delivery of instructions signed on its behalf by an Officer, instruct the Trustee or any paying agent to call all or any part of the Securities of a particular
series for redemption and to give notice of redemption in the manner set forth in this Section, such notice to be in the name of the Company or its own name as the Trustee or such paying agent may deem advisable. In any case in which notice of
redemption is to be given by the Trustee or any such paying agent, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to, or permit to remain with, the Trustee or such paying agent, as the case may be, such Security Register, transfer books or other
records, or suitable copies or extracts therefrom, sufficient to enable the Trustee or such paying agent to give any notice by mail that may be required under the provisions of this Section. 

Section 3.03    Payment Upon Redemption. 

(a)    If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the Securities or portions
of Securities of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to, but excluding, the date fixed
for redemption and interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such redemption price and accrued interest with respect to
any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption
price for such series, together with interest accrued thereon to, but excluding, the date 

  
 16 

 
fixed for redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an Interest Payment Date, the interest installment payable on such date shall be payable to the registered holder at the close of
business on the applicable record date pursuant to Section 2.03). 
 (b)    Upon presentation of any
Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall deliver to the Securityholder thereof, at the expense of the
Company, a new Security of the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented. 

Section 3.04    Sinking Fund. 

The provisions of Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.01 for Securities of such series. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment
provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment,” and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to
as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 3.05. Each sinking fund payment shall be
applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 

Section 3.05    Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

The Company (i) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities of a series that have been
redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part
of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series, provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited.
Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the redemption price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced
accordingly. 
 Section 3.06    Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to
the Trustee), the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of the series, the portion thereof, if any, that is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.05 and the basis for such credit and will, together with such Officer’s Certificate, deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less
than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date shall be selected in the manner specified in Section 3.02 and the Company shall cause notice of the redemption thereof to
be given in the name 

  
 17 

 
of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 3.02. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the
manner stated in Section 3.03. 
 ARTICLE 4 

COVENANTS 

Section 4.01    Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Company will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of that
series at the time and place and in the manner provided herein and established with respect to such Securities. Payments of principal on the Securities may be made at the time provided herein and established with respect to such Securities by U.S.
dollar check drawn on and mailed to the address of the Securityholder entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or U.S. dollar wire transfer to, a U.S. dollar account if such Securityholder shall have furnished wire
instructions to the Trustee no later than 15 days prior to the relevant payment date. Payments of interest on the Securities may be made at the time provided herein and established with respect to such Securities by U.S. dollar check mailed to the
address of the Securityholder entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or U.S. dollar wire transfer to, a U.S. dollar account if such Securityholder shall have furnished wire instructions in writing to the Security
Registrar and the Trustee no later than 15 days prior to the relevant payment date. 

Section 4.02    Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

So long as any series of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Company agrees to maintain an office or agency with respect to each such series
and at such other location or locations as may be designated as provided in this Section 4.02, where (i) Securities of that series may be presented for payment, (ii) Securities of that series may be presented as herein above
authorized for registration of transfer and exchange, and (iii) notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be given or served, such designation to continue with respect to such
office or agency until the Company shall, by written notice signed by any officer authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate and delivered to the Trustee, designate some other office or agency for such purposes or any of them. If at any time
the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the
Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, notices and demands. The Company initially appoints the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as its paying agent with respect to the Securities. 

  
 18 

 Section 4.03    Paying Agents. 

(a)    If the Company shall appoint one or more paying agents for all or any series of the Securities, other than
the Trustee, the Company will cause each such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section: 

(1)    that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if
any) or interest on the Securities of that series (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor of such Securities) in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto; 

(2)    that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor of such
Securities) to make any payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series when the same shall be due and payable; 

(3)    that it will, at any time during the continuance of any failure referred to in the preceding paragraph
(a)(2) above, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent; and 

(4)    that it will perform all other duties of paying agent as set forth in this Indenture. 

(b)    If the Company shall act as its own paying agent with respect to any series of the Securities, it will on or
before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay such principal (and premium, if
any) or interest so becoming due on Securities of that series until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of such action, or any failure (by it or any other obligor
on such Securities) to take such action. Whenever the Company shall have one or more paying agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Securities of that series,
deposit with the paying agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such
paying agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of this action or failure so to act. 

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) the agreement to hold sums in trust as
provided in this Section is subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, and (ii) the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any paying
agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such paying agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms and conditions as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such paying agent; and, upon
such payment by the Company or any paying agent to the Trustee, the Company or such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

Section 4.04    Appointment to Fill Vacancy in Office of Trustee. 

The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.10,
a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.

SECURITYHOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE 

Section 5.01    Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Securityholders. 

The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee (a) within 15 days after each regular record date (as defined in
Section 2.03) a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the holders of each series of Securities as of such regular record date, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to furnish or
cause to furnish such list at any time that the list shall not differ in any respect from the most recent list furnished to the Trustee by the Company and (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing within 30 days after the
receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however, that, in either case, no such list need be furnished for any series for
which the Trustee shall be the Security Registrar. 
 Section 5.02    Preservation Of
Information; Communications With Securityholders. 
 (a)    The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form
as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the holders of Securities contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 and as to the names and addresses of holders of Securities
received by the Trustee in its capacity as Security Registrar (if acting in such capacity). 
 (b)    The Trustee
may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 

(c)    Securityholders may communicate as provided in Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with other
Securityholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities, and, in connection with any such communications, the Trustee shall satisfy its obligations under Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance
with the provisions of Section 312(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

Section 5.03    Reports by the Company. 

(a)    The Company will at all times comply with Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Company
covenants and agrees to provide (which delivery may be via electronic mail) to the Trustee within 30 days, after the Company files the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or
copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act; provided, however, the Company shall not be required to deliver to the Trustee any correspondence filed with the Commission or any materials for which the Company has sought and received confidential treatment by the Commission; and provided
further, that so long as such filings by the Company are available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (EDGAR), or any successor system, such filings shall be deemed to have been filed with the Trustee
for purposes hereof without any further action required by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, a failure by the Company to file annual reports, information and other reports with the Commission within the time period prescribed thereof by the
Commission shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 5.03. 

  
 20 

 (b)    Delivery of reports, information and documents to the
Trustee under Section 5.03 is for informational purposes only and the information and the Trustee’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein, or determinable from information
contained therein including the Company’s compliance with any of their covenants thereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate). The Trustee is under no duty to examine any such reports,
information or documents delivered to the Trustee or filed with the Commission via EDGAR to ensure compliance with the provision of this Indenture or to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of the information or the statements contained therein.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility or duty whatsoever to ascertain or determine whether the above referenced filings with the Commission on EDGAR (or any successor system) has occurred. 

Section 5.04    Reports by the Trustee. 

(a)    If required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee, within sixty (60) days after
each May 1, shall send to the Securityholders a brief report dated as of such May 1, which complies with Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

(b)    The Trustee shall comply with Section 313(b) and 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

(c)    A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Securityholders, be filed by the
Trustee with the Company, with each securities exchange upon which any Securities are listed (if so listed) and also with the Commission. The Company agrees to notify the Trustee when any Securities become listed on any securities exchange. 

ARTICLE 6 
 REMEDIES OF
THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS ON EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 Section 6.01    Events of
Default. 
 (a)    Whenever used herein with respect to Securities of a particular series, “Event of
Default” means any one or more of the following events that has occurred and is continuing: 
 (1)    the
Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon any of the Securities of that series, as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 90 days; provided, however, that a valid
extension of an interest payment period by the Company in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute a default in the payment of interest for this purpose; 

(2)    the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of
that series as and when the same shall become due 

  
 21 

 
and payable whether at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration or otherwise, or in any payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series; provided,
however, that a valid extension of the maturity of such Securities in accordance with the terms of any indenture supplemental hereto shall not constitute a default in the payment of principal or premium, if any; 

(3)    the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements with respect to that
series contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to that series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof (other than a covenant or agreement that has been expressly included in this Indenture solely for the benefit
of one or more series of Securities other than such series) for a period of 90 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder,
shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, by registered or certified mail, or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of that series at the time Outstanding; 

(4)    the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (i) commences a voluntary case,
(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the
benefit of its creditors; or 
 (5)    a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order under any Bankruptcy
Law that (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all or substantially all of its property or (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company, and the order or decree
remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days. 
 (b)    In each and every such case (other than an Event of Default
specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above), unless the principal of all the Securities of that series shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Securityholders), may declare the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on all the
Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (4) or clause (5) above occurs, the
principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of that series shall automatically be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or the holders of the Securities. 

(c)    At any time after the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on the
Securities of that series shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of that series then Outstanding hereunder, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: (i) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the Securities of that series and the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any and all Securities of that series that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with
interest upon such 

  
 22 

 
principal and premium, if any, and, to the extent that such payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, at the rate per annum expressed in the Securities
of that series to the date of such payment or deposit) and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06, and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the Indenture with respect to such series, other than the nonpayment of principal
on (and premium, if any, on) and accrued and unpaid interest on Securities of that series that shall not have become due by their terms, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.06. 

No such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

(d)    In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right with respect to Securities of that series
under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case, subject to any
determination in such proceedings, the Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such
proceedings had been taken. 
 Section 6.02    Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for
Enforcement by Trustee. 
 (a)    The Company covenants that (i) in case it shall default in the payment
of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of a series, or in any payment required by any sinking or analogous fund established with respect to that series as and when the same shall have become due and payable, and such default shall
have continued for a period of 90 days, or (ii) in case it shall default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any of the Securities of a series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the
Securities of a series or upon redemption or upon declaration or otherwise then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Securities of that series, the whole amount that then shall have
been become due and payable on all such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) or interest, or both, as the case may be, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and (to the extent that payment of such interest is
enforceable under applicable law) upon overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum expressed in the Securities of that series; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, and the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06. 
 (b)    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, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of that series and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed
to be payable in the manner provided by law or equity out of the property of the Company or other obligor upon the Securities of that series, wherever situated. 

  
 23 

 (c)    In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition or judicial proceedings affecting the Company, or its creditors or property, the Trustee shall have power to intervene in such proceedings and take any action therein that may be
permitted by the court and shall (except as may be otherwise provided by law) be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other papers and documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the holders of
Securities of such series allowed for the entire amount due and payable by the Company under the Indenture at the date of institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount that may become due and payable by the Company after such date,
and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim, and to distribute the same after the deduction of the amount payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in
bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the holders of Securities of such series to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such
Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it under Section 7.06. 
 (d)    All rights of action
and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the terms established with respect to Securities of that series, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of such Securities, or the production thereof at any trial or
other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 payment to the Trustee of any
amounts due under Section 7.06, be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Securities of such series. 
 In case of an Event of
Default hereunder, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such
rights, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other
legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of that series or the rights of any Securityholder thereof or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding. 

Section 6.03    Application of Moneys Collected. 

Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article with respect to a particular series of Securities shall be applied in the
following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such moneys on account of principal (or 

  
 24 

 
premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities of that series, and notation thereon of the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 

FIRST: To the payment of costs and expenses of collection and of all amounts payable to the Trustee under Section 7.06; 

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest,
respectively; and 
 THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto. 

Section 6.04    Limitation on Suits. 

No holder of any Security of any series shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit,
action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless (i) such Securityholder previously shall have given to the
Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the Securities of such series specifying such Event of Default, as hereinbefore provided; (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of such series then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder; (iii) such Securityholder or Securityholders shall have
offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee for 90 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall
have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and (v) during such 90 day period, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

 Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary or any other provisions of this Indenture, the right of any holder of any
Security to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security, as therein provided, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), or to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or redemption date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder and by accepting a Security hereunder it is expressly understood,
intended and covenanted by the taker and holder of every Security of such series with every other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue
or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other of such Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any right
under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of Securities of such series. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder
and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 

  
 25 

 Section 6.05    Rights and Remedies
Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
 (a)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07, all
powers and remedies given by this Article to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the holders of the
Securities, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to such Securities. 

(b)    No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Securities to exercise any right or power
accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.04,
every power and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Securityholders. 

Section 6.06    Control by Securityholders. 

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, determined in accordance with
Section 8.04, 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 such series; provided,
however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or subject the Trustee in its sole discretion to personal liability. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right
to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed, subject to the Trustee’s duties under the Trust Indenture Act, would
involve the Trustee in personal liability or might be unduly prejudicial to the Securityholders not involved in the proceeding. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding affected
thereby, determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may on behalf of the holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained herein or established pursuant to
Section 2.01 with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any of the Securities of that series as and when the same shall become due by the terms of
such Securities otherwise than by acceleration (unless such default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal and any premium has been deposited with the Trustee (in accordance with
Section 6.01(c)). Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.07    Undertaking to Pay Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Securities by such holder’s 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 

  
 26 

 
Trustee for any action taken 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 and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of
this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of Securityholders, holding more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any
suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security or established pursuant to
this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 7 

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 

Section 7.01    Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. 

(a)    The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and
after the curing of all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with respect to the Securities of such series such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth
in this Indenture, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series has occurred (that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise
with respect to Securities of that series 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 man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his
or her own affairs. 
 (b)    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: 

(i)    prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the
curing or waiving of all such Events of Default with respect to that series that may have occurred: 

(A)    the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of such series be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the Securities of such series except for the performance of 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 
 (B)    in the
absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may with respect to the Securities of such series 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; 

  
 27 

 (ii)    the Trustee shall not be liable to any Securityholder or
to any other Person for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

(iii)    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 not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that series; 

(iv)    none of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not
reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Indenture or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it; 

(v)    The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers or
duties hereunder; 
 (vi)    The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall
not be construed as a duty of the Trustee; and 
 (vii)    No Trustee shall have any duty or responsibility for
any act or omission of any other Trustee appointed with respect to a series of Securities hereunder. 

Section 7.02    Certain Rights of Trustee. 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01: 

(a)    The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security 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, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced
by a Board Resolution or an instrument signed in the name of the Company by any authorized Officer of the Company (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically prescribed herein); 

(c)    The Trustee may consult with counsel and the opinion or written advice of such counsel or, if requested, any
Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 

  
 28 

 (d)    The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any
of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with
respect to a series of the Securities (that has not been cured or waived), to exercise with respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs; 

(e)    The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed
by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

(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, consent, order, approval, bond, security, or other papers or documents or inquire as to the performance by the Company of one of its covenants under this Indenture, unless
requested in writing so to do by the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the particular series affected thereby (determined as provided in Section 8.04); provided, however, that if the
payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded
to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require security or indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against such costs, expenses or liabilities as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such examination
shall be paid by the Company or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Company upon demand; 
 (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)    In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or
liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or
terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall
use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances; 

(i)    In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss
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; and 

  
 29 

 (j)    The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or
directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that such instructions or directions shall be signed by
an authorized representative of the party providing such instructions or directions. If the party elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method)
and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or
indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume
all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by
third parties. The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to furnish the Trustee with Officer’s Certificates, Company
Orders and any other matters or directions pursuant to this Indenture. 
 (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 under the Securities, and each
agent, custodian or other person employed to act under this Indenture. 
 (l)    The Trustee shall not be deemed
to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default constituting the failure to pay the interest on, or the principal of, the Securities if the Trustee also serves the paying agent for such Securities) until the
Trustee shall have received written notification in the manner set forth in this Indenture or a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have obtained actual knowledge. 

Section 7.03    Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or Securities. 

(a)    The recitals contained herein and in the Securities shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the
Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any statement in any registration statement, prospectus, or any other document in connection with the sale of Securities. The Trustee shall
not be responsible for any rating on the Securities or any action or omission of any rating agency. 
 (b)    The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. 

(c)    The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any of the Securities or
of the proceeds of such Securities, or for the use or application of any moneys paid over by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or established pursuant to Section 2.01, or for the use or application of any moneys
received by any paying agent other than the Trustee. 

  
 30 

 Section 7.04    May Hold Securities.

 The Trustee or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of
Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, paying agent or Security Registrar. 

Section 7.05    Moneys Held in Trust. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.05, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in
trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder except such as it may
agree with the Company to pay thereon. 
 Section 7.06    Compensation and
Reimbursement. 
 (a)     The Company shall pay to the Trustee for each of its capacities hereunder from time
to time compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall
reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the
Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 (b)    The Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee in each of its
capacities hereunder against any loss, liability or expense (including the cost of defending itself and including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel) incurred by it except as set forth in
Section 7.06(c) in the exercise or performance of its powers, rights or duties under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the
claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee. 

(c)    The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the
Trustee or by any officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through negligence or bad faith. 

(d)    To ensure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the
Securities on all funds or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of or interest on particular Securities. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default
specified in Section 6.01(4) or (5), the expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for services in connection therewith are to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. The
provisions of this Section 7.06 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

  
 31 

 Section 7.07    Reliance on Officer’s
Certificate. 
 Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the
Trustee shall deem it reasonably necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee and such certificate, in the absence of negligence
or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 

Section 7.08    Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 

If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act,
the Trustee and the Company shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

Section 7.09    Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

There shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Securities issued hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a corporation or other Person permitted to act as trustee by the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least fifty million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or District of Columbia authority. 

If such corporation or other Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or other Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. The Company may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 7.10. 

Section 7.10    Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

(a)    The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed may at any time resign with respect to the Securities of one
or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company and the Securityholders of such series. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee with respect to Securities of such series by
written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 30 days after the sending 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 Securities of such series, or

  
 32 

 
any Securityholder of that series who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such
court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 

(b)    In case at any time any one of the following shall occur: 

(i)    the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 7.08 after written request therefor by
the Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months; or 

(ii)    the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.09 and shall
fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder; or 
 (iii)    the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, 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, the Company may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Security or Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of that holder and all others similarly situated, petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 (c)    The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee with respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company and may appoint a successor Trustee for such series with the consent of the Company. 

(d)    Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the
Securities of a series pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.11. 

(e)    Any successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be appointed with respect to the Securities of
one or more series or all of such series, and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series. 

Section 7.11    Acceptance of Appointment By Successor. 

(a)    In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all Securities, every such
successor trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to 

  
 33 

 
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 any amounts due to it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights, powers, and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver
to such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 
 (b)    In case of
the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and
deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor
trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates, (ii) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the
retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing
herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, 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 that no Trustee shall be responsible for any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; 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, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates have
no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture, and each such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor
trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates. 
 (c)    Upon
request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section, as the case may be. 
 (d)    No successor trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 

  
 34 

 (e)    Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as
provided in this Section, the Company shall send notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Securityholders. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the
successor trustee shall cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense of the Company. 

Section 7.12    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, including the administration of the trust created by this Indenture,
shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 7.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 7.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 

Section 7.13    Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. 

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

Section 7.14    Notice of Default.  

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if such Event of Default is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee
shall send to each Securityholder in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act notice of the Event of Default within the earlier of 90 days after it occurs and 30 days after it is known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee or written notice of it is received by the Trustee, unless such Event of Default has been cured; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Securityholders. 

ARTICLE 8 
 CONCERNING
THE SECURITYHOLDERS 
 Section 8.01    Evidence of Action by Securityholders. 

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a majority or specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of a particular series may take any 

  
 35 

 
action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action the
holders of such majority or specified percentage of that series have joined therein may be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such holders of Securities of that series in person or by agent or proxy
appointed in writing. 
 If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders of any series any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, 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 action may be
given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of
Outstanding Securities of that series have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities of that series shall be computed
as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
than six months after the record date. 
 Section 8.02    Proof of Execution by
Securityholders. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder (such
proof will not require notarization) or his or her agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Securities shall be sufficient if made in the following manner: 

(a)    The fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in any reasonable
manner acceptable to the Trustee. 
 (b)    The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register
of such Securities or by a certificate of the Security Registrar thereof. 
 The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this
Section as it shall deem necessary. 
 Section 8.03    Who May be Deemed Owners. 

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Security
Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name such Security shall be registered upon the books of the Security Registrar as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of
ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 2.03) interest on such Security and for all other
purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

  
 36 

 Section 8.04    Certain Securities Owned by
Company Disregarded. 
 In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Securities of a particular
series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, the Securities of that series that are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by or under common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Securities of that series shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining
whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Securities of such series that the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. The Securities so owned that have been pledged in good
faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this Section, if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not a Person directly
or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full
protection to the Trustee. 
 Section 8.05    Actions Binding on Future
Securityholders. 
 At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking
of any action by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder of a Security of that series that is shown by
the evidence to be included in the Securities the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee, and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such
Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Security, and of any Security issued in exchange therefor, on
registration of transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Security. Any action taken by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of a particular series specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the holders of all the Securities of that series.

expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series), to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and the continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event of Default, or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; 
 (e)    to add to, delete from, or revise the

 (g)    to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Securities of any
series as provided in Section 2.01, to establish the form of any certifications required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or any series of Securities, or to add to the rights of the holders of any series of Securities;

 (h)    to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor trustee; or 

(i)    to comply with any requirements of the Commission or any successor in connection with the qualification of
this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. 
 The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such

duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders of any of the Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02.

majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series affected by such supplemental indenture or indentures at the time Outstanding, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at
any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner not covered by Section 9.01 the rights of the holders of the Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such
supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the holders of each Security then Outstanding and affected thereby, (a) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities of any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate
or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture.

 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders of any series affected thereby under this Section to approve the
particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. 

Section 9.03    Effect of Supplemental Indentures. 

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of Section 10.01, this Indenture shall,
with respect to such series, be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of

the filing with the Trustee of evidence of 

  
 39 

 
the consent of Securityholders required to consent thereto as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such 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. The Trustee, subject to the
provisions of Section 7.01, shall receive an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article is authorized or permitted by the terms of this Article
and that all conditions precedent to the execution of the supplemental indenture have been complied with; provided, however, that such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel need not be provided in connection with the execution of a
supplemental indenture that establishes the terms of a series of Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof. 
 Promptly after the
execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Company shall (or shall direct the Trustee to) send a notice, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental
indenture, to the Securityholders of all series affected thereby .as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. Any failure of the Company to send, or cause the sending of, such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in

the Company’s request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and thereupon the paying agent and the Trustee shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys or Governmental Obligations, and

BY ACCEPTANCE THEREOF, HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INDENTURE. 

Section 13.06    Treatment of Securities as Debt. 

It is intended that the Securities will be treated as indebtedness and not as equity for federal income tax purposes. The provisions of this
Indenture shall be interpreted to further this intention. 
 Section 13.07    Certificates
and Opinions as to Conditions Precedent. 
 (a)    Upon any application or demand by the Company to the
Trustee to take any action under any of the provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture (other than the certificate to be
delivered pursuant to Section 13.12) relating to the proposed action have been complied with and, if requested, an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent have been complied with, except that
in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished. 
 (b)    Each certificate or opinion provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee with
respect to compliance with a condition or covenant in this Indenture (other than the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 13.12 of this Indenture or Section 314(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall include (i) a
statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; (ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such

opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and (iv) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with. 

Section 13.08    Payments on Business Days. 

Except as provided pursuant to Section 2.01 pursuant to a Board Resolution, and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, or established
in one or more indentures supplemental to this Indenture, in any case where the date of maturity of interest or principal of any Security or the date of redemption of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal
(and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the nominal date of maturity or redemption, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such nominal date. 

Section 13.09    Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 

If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by Section 318(c) of the
Trust Indenture Act, such imposed duties shall control. 

Section 13.10    Counterparts. 

This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used
in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. 

Section 13.11    Separability. 

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series shall for any reason be held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Indenture or of such Securities, but this Indenture and such Securities shall be construed as if such
invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein. 

Section 13.12    Compliance Certificates. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year during which any Securities of any series were
outstanding, an officer’s certificate stating whether or not the signers know of any Event of Default that occurred during such fiscal year. Such certificate shall contain a certification from the principal executive officer, principal
financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company that a review has been conducted of the activities of the Company and the Company’s performance under this Indenture and that the Company has complied with all conditions and
covenants under this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 13.12, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or 

  
 45 

 
requirement of notice provided under this Indenture. If the officer of the Company signing such certificate has knowledge of such an Event of Default, the certificate shall describe any such
Event of Default and its status. 
 Section 13.13    U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions
and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The
parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

Section 13.14    Force Majeure. 

In no event shall the Trustee, the Security Registrar, any paying agent or any other agent under this Indenture be responsible or liable for
any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or
military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions or utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee, the Security Registrar,
any paying agent or any other agent under this Indenture shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.
