execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in
this Section.

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

any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done

 Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise
herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice
with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person 

  

 10 

 
entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall
be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made by or with the approval of the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

 11 

 Section 1.13 Legal Holidays. 
 Except as may be otherwise specified with respect to any particular series, in any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of
Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

agreement contained in this Indenture, or in any Security, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any past, present or future stockholder, employee, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor,
either directly or through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly
waived and released by the acceptance of the Securities by the Holders and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

 EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST

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

                             (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such
Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required
by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture]. [If the Security is not to bear interest prior to Maturity, insert — The principal of this Security shall not bear interest except in the case of a default in payment of
principal upon acceleration, upon redemption or at Stated Maturity and in such case the overdue principal of this Security shall bear interest at the rate of         % per annum (to the extent that the
payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for. Interest on any overdue principal shall be payable on
demand. Any such interest on any overdue principal that is not so paid on demand shall bear interest at the rate of         % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such demand for payment to the date payment of such interest has been made or duly provided for, and such interest shall also be payable on demand.] 
 Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and [if applicable, insert — any such] interest on this Security will be made at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in Boston Massachusetts; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register. 
 [If applicable, insert — [The Securities of this series are/This Security is] subject to redemption
prior to the Stated Maturity as described on the reverse hereof.] 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set
forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose.

 Section 2.03 Form of Reverse of Security. 
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one
or more series under an Indenture, dated as of                     , 20     (herein called the
“Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Securities and of
the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initally limited in aggregate principal amount to $125,000,000. The Company may issue additional
Securities of this series, having the same terms as this Security (except for the issue date) and, if issued, such additional Securities will be part of the same series as this Security. In addition, by the terms of the Indenture, additional
Securities [if applicable, insert — of this series and] of other separate series, which may vary as to date, amount, Stated Maturity, interest rate or method of calculating the interest rate and in other respects as therein provided, may be
issued in an unlimited principal amount. 
 The Indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the
Indenture referred to above, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the principal of (and premium, if any), and interest on all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as defined in the Indenture, and each Holder of
this Security, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by the provisions of the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the
subordination of this Security as provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture regarding payments to creditors in respect of General Obligations (as defined in the 

  

 15 

 
Indenture). In particular, the Indenture provides that if upon the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency relating to the Company, there
remains, after giving effect to the subordination provisions referred to in the preceding paragraph, any amount of cash, property or securities available for payment or distribution in respect of Securities (as defined in the Indenture, “Excess
Proceeds”), and if, at such time, any creditors in respect of General Obligations have not received payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of such General Obligations, then such Excess Proceeds shall first be
applied to pay or provide for the payment in full of such General Obligations before any payment or distribution may be made in respect of Securities. This paragraph shall immediately and automatically terminate, be null and void ab initio and have
no further effect upon the occurrence of a Termination Event (as defined in the Indenture). 
 [If applicable, insert — [The Securities
of this series are/This Security is] subject to redemption prior to the Stated Maturity hereof upon not less than 30 days’ notice by mail to the Person[s] in whose name[s] [the Securities to be redeemed are/this Security is] registered at the

                     through operation of the sinking fund for this series at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount, and
(2)] [at any time] [on any Interest Payment Date] [on or after
                                    ], as a whole or in part,

principal amount [if applicable, insert —, together in the case of any such redemption [if applicable, insert — (whether through operation of the sinking fund or otherwise)] with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, provided,
however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the [Holders of such Securities/Holder of this Security] (or one or more Predecessor Securities) of record at the close of
business on the relevant Regular Record Dates or Special Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture]. [If there is no sinking fund, insert — [The Securities of this series are/This Security is] not subject to

                     and ending with the year
                     through operation of the sinking fund for this series at the Redemption Prices for redemption through operation of the
sinking fund (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) set forth in the table below, and (2) at any time [on or after

 and thereafter at a Redemption Price equal to         % of the
principal amount [if applicable, insert —, together in the case of any such redemption (whether through operation of the sinking fund or otherwise) with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the [Holders of such Securities/Holder of this Security] (or one or more Predecessor Securities) of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates
or Special Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture].] 
 [Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
may not, prior to                     , redeem any Securities of this series as contemplated by [clause (2) of] the preceding paragraph
as a part of, or in anticipation of, any refunding operation by the application, directly or indirectly, of moneys borrowed having an interest cost to the Company (calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice) of less than
        % per annum.] 
 [The sinking fund for this series provides for the redemption on
                             in each year beginning with the year
                     and ending with the year

sinking fund”) and not more than [$]            ] aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series. [Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the Company
otherwise than through [mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [mandatory] sinking fund payments otherwise required to be made in the inverse order in which they become due.]] 
 [In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor of an authorized denomination
for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.] 
 [If the Security is not
an Original Issue Discount Security, — If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may (subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture) be
declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.] 
 [If the Security is an Original Issue Discount
Security, — If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, a lesser amount than the principal amount due at the Stated Maturity of the Securities of this series may (subject to the conditions set
forth in the Indenture) be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount due and payable on this Security in the event that 

  

 17 

 
this Security is declared due and payable prior to the Stated Maturity hereof shall be — insert formula for determining the amount — or in the
event that this Security is redeemed shall be the specified percentage of — insert formula for determining the amount. Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any overdue
principal and overdue interest (in each case to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities
of this series shall terminate.] 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and in certain circumstances, to all General Obligations, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder
of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained
herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected and, for certain purposes, without the consent of the Holders of any Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
 [If the Security is an Original Issue Discount Security, — In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the Outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or waiver under the Indenture or whether a quorum is present at a meeting of Holders of Securities, the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that shall be deemed to be Outstanding shall be the amount of
the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon the acceleration of the Maturity thereof.] 
 Subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company set forth in this Security and as provided in the Indenture referred to above, no reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture
shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

  

 18 

 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this
Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security are
payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or
more new Securities of this series and of like tenor of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and subsequently may not be exchanged by a Holder for
Securities in denominations of less than $1,000. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior
to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered in the Security Register as the owner hereof for
all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 The Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, such Board
Resolution and Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture may provide general terms or parameters for Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of particular Securities of such series shall be specified in a
Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company or its agents in accordance with other procedures specified in a Company Order as contemplated by the third paragraph of Section 3.03. 
  

 22 

 Section 3.02 Denominations. 
 The Securities of each series shall be issued in registered form without coupons in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by
Section 3.01. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of
$1,000. 
 Section 3.03 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 
 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents and attested by its
Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
 Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior
to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
 At any time and from
time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such
Securities, or, in the case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, from time to time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of electronic instructions from the Company or its duly
authorized agents, promptly confirmed in writing by the Company) acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order for establishing the specific terms of particular Securities being so offered, and the Trustee in
accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01, in
authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating: 
 (a) that the form of such Securities has been established in conformity with the provisions
of this Indenture; 
 (b) that the terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this
Indenture; and 
 (c) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the
manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other
laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; 
  

 23 

 provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive such Opinion of Counsel in connection only with the first authentication of Securities of such series and that the opinions described in clauses (b) and (c) above may state, respectively, that: 
 (1) if the terms of such Securities shall have been established pursuant to a Company Order or pursuant to such procedures as may be
specified from time to time by a Company Order, all as contemplated by a Board Resolution or action taken pursuant thereto, such terms will have been duly authorized by the Company and established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;
and 
 (2) such Securities, when executed by the Company, completed, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance
with this Indenture, and issued and delivered by the Company and paid for, all in accordance with any agreement of the Company relating to the offering, issuance and sale of such Securities, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of
the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.

 With respect to Securities of a series offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may rely, as to the authorization by the Company of any
of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 and this Section, as applicable, in
connection with the first authentication of Securities of such series and it shall not be necessary for the Company to deliver such Opinion of Counsel and other documents (except as may be required by the specified other procedures, if any, referred
to above) at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series unless and until the Trustee receives notice that such Opinion of Counsel or other documents have been superseded or revoked, and may assume compliance with any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel (other than any conditions to be performed by the Trustee). If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such
Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for
herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in
Section 3.09 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of
this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 Section 3.04 Temporary Securities. 
 Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 
 If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay.
After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of like tenor of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the
office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor and of any authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. 
 Section 3.05
Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 
 The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
a register (the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed
“Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
 Upon surrender
for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment for such series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees) one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. 
 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment for such series. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
  

 25 

 Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so
required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 not involving any
transfer. 
 The Company may but shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that series selected for redemption under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to
this Section 3.05 for Securities registered in the name of Persons other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for
such Global Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series, or
(iii) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose pursuant to Section 3.01. Upon the occurrence in respect of any Global Security of any series of any one
or more of the conditions specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or such other conditions as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such series, such Global Security may be exchanged for
Securities not bearing the legend specified in Section 2.05 and registered in the names of such Persons as may be specified by the Depositary (including Persons other than the Depositary). 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such Global
Security to a nominee of such Depositary, or by a nominee of such Depositary, to such Depositary, or another nominee of such Depositary. 
 Section 3.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee
together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them or any agent of either of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount. 
  

 26 

 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such
Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of
like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this
Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.07 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered in the Security Register at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. 
 Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable but is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date (herein called
“Defaulted Interest”), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as
provided in clause (1) or (2) below. 
 (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the
Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date 

  

 27 

 
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 Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in
respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment
and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such
series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 
 (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause,
such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 3.08 Persons Deemed Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Security Register as the owner
of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 No holder of any beneficial
interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a Depositary (or its nominee) shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security or any Security represented thereby, and such Depositary may be treated by the
Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global 

  

 28 

 
Security or any Security represented thereby for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein
shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of
beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of any Security. 
 Section 3.09 Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of
transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any
Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed unless otherwise directed by a Company Order. 
 Section 3.10 Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 3.11 Payment to be in Proper Currency. 
 In the case of any Securities denominated in any currency (the “Required Currency”) other than United States Dollars, except as otherwise provided therein, the obligation of the Company to make any payment
of principal, premium or interest thereon shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender by the Company, or recovery by the Trustee, in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result
in the Trustee timely holding the full amount of the Required Currency then due and payable. If any such tender or recovery is in a currency other than the Required Currency, the Trustee may take such actions as it considers reasonably appropriate
to exchange such currency for the Required Currency (which may include utilization of the foreign exchange services of its commercial banking department, for which it may earn compensation). The costs and risks of any such exchange, including,
without limitation, the risks of delay and exchange rate fluctuation, shall be borne by the Company, the Company shall remain fully liable for any shortfall or delinquency in the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable, and in no
circumstances shall the Trustee be liable therefor except in the case of its negligence or willful misconduct. The Company hereby waives any defense of payment based upon any such tender or recovery which is not in the Required Currency, or which,
when exchanged for the Required Currency by the Trustee, is less than the full amount of Required Currency then due and payable. 
  

 29 

 ARTICLE FOUR - SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 4.01 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the
request and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when: 
 (1) either 
 (A) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than
(i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in
trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

 (i) have become due and payable; 
 (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year; or 
 (iii) are to
be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company; 
 and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
the purpose an amount, in the currency in which such Securities are payable, sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any)
and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the respective Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 
 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 Notwithstanding the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the
obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive. 
  

 30 

 Section 4.02 Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 shall be held in
trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the
Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any
series, and unless otherwise provided with respect to Securities of any series pursuant to Section 3.01(12), means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary

 (2) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or

 (5) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.01(12). 
 Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Outstanding Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if any of the Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such lesser portion of the
principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any
such declaration such principal amount (or specified portion thereof) shall become immediately due and payable. 
 At any time after such a
declaration of acceleration with respect to Outstanding Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders 

  

 32 

 
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to
pay: 
 (A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series; 
 (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of
acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities; 
 (C) to the extent that
payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities; and 
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07; and

 (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of
Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Upon
receipt by the Trustee of any written notice declaring such an acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, with respect to Securities of a series all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall be established for
determining Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such notice, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated
proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be,
shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having joined in such notice prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be,
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new written notice
of declaration of acceleration, or rescission or annulment thereof, as the case may be, that is identical to a written notice which has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be
established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.02. 
  

 33 

 Section 5.03 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
 The Company covenants that if: 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days; 
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) on any Security at the Maturity thereof; or 
 (3) default is made in the performance of any covenant or a breach occurs in any warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a
covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of one or more Securities other than
that series), and such default or breach continues for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; 
 the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for
principal (and premium, if any) and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor
in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel. The events referred to in Sections 5.03(1), (2) and (3) are herein referred to as “Defaults”. 
 If the Company
fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or
final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon
such Securities, wherever situated. 
 If a Default or an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such
rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
  

 34 

 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any Notice of Default pursuant to Section 5.03(3) with respect to
Securities of a series all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall be established for determining Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such Notice of Default, which record date shall
be at the close of business on the date the Trustee receives such Notice of Default. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such Notice of Default, whether or not such
Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that unless Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, or their proxies, shall have joined in such Notice of Default prior to the day which is 90
days after such record date, such Notice of Default shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after
expiration of such 90-day period, a new Notice of Default which is identical to a Notice of Default which has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 5.03. 
 Section 5.04 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and
payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise: 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any), or such
portion of the principal amount of any series of Original Issue Discount Securities as may be specified in the terms of such series, and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 6.07) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (ii) to collect and receive any moneys or
other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07. 
  

 35 

 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding. 
 Section 5.05 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. 
 All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the
payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and for any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in
respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 Section 5.06 Application of Money Collected. 
 Subject to the provisions of Article Thirteen, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon
surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities 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: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. 
 Section 5.07 Limitation on Suits. 
 No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities of that series; 
 (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that
series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
  

 36 

 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee, for 60 days after its
receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction
inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this
Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein
provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
 Section 5.08 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive
Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the
right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of
redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 5.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all
rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall,
to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  

 37 

 Section 5.11 Delay or Omission not Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any
such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be
deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 5.12 Control by Holders. 
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right (subject to Section 6.03(e))
to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series; provided that: 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; and 
 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. 
 Upon receipt by the Trustee of any written notice directing the time, method or place of conducting any such proceeding or the exercise of any such trust
or power with respect to Securities of a series all or part of which is represented by a Global Security, a record date shall be established for determining Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series entitled to join in such notice, which
record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Trustee receives such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, whether or not such
Holders remain after such record date; provided that, unless Holders of a majority (or, in the case of Section 5.07(2), 25%) in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have joined in such notice prior to the day
which is 90 days after such record date, such notice shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
 Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new notice identical to a notice which has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the
preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.12. 
 Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of any series may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series, waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default: 
  

 38 

 (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security
of such series; or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended
without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to,
fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any past default hereunder. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to
waive any default hereunder, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such majority in principal amount shall have waived such default prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any
such waiver of such default previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default
or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of
Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any
Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
 Section 5.15 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance
of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

 ARTICLE SIX - THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 6.01 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 
 The provisions of TIA Section 315 shall apply to the Trustee; provided that, (i) for purposes of TIA Section 315(a)(1), except during the continuance of an Event of Default known to a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties as are specifically set out in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee;
and (ii) for purposes of TIA Section 315(c), in case an Event of Default known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 
 Section 6.02 Notice of Defaults. 
 Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such series, as
their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the
principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the
board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Securities of such series; and
provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.01(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the
purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series. 
 Section 6.03 Certain Rights of Trustee. 
 Subject to the provisions of TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d): 
 (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
 (b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein
shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order or as otherwise expressly provided herein and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
  

 40 

 (c) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be
proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate;

 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its own choosing and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 
 (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders
shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or
matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; 
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys
and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 
 (h) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

 (i) the Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any
of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it;

 (j) the grant of a permissive right or power to the Trustee hereunder shall not be construed to impose a duty to act, and the Trustee
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any matter unless a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office; and 
 (k) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, 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. 
  

 41 

 Section 6.04 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 
 The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the
Company, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. The Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 6.05 May Hold Securities. 
 The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar
or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were
not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. 
 Section 6.06 Money Held in Trust.

 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee
shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. 
 Section 6.07 Compensation and Reimbursement. 
 The Company agrees: 
 (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall
not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
 (2) except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the reasonable expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith on its part; and 
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee and its agents for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable
attorneys fees and expenses) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending
itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. 
 The
obligations of the Company under this Section 6.07 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the
satisfaction and 

  

 42 

 
discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by
the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on particular Securities, and the Securities are hereby subordinated to each senior claim. 
 Section 6.08 Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 
 The provisions of TIA Section 310(b) shall apply to the Trustee. 
 Section 6.09 Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility. 
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act under TIA
Section 310(a) (1) and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. Neither the Company, nor any Person or Corporation directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company, shall act as Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 6.10
Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor
Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the
instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (c) The Trustee may be removed at
any time with respect to the Securities of any series by an Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 
 (d) If at any time: 
 (1) the
Trustee shall fail to comply with TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months; 
 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company
or by any such Holder; or 
  

 43 

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

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14,
any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities
and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a
vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or
those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
any Series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its
acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the
Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any Series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder
of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

 (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and
each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the
Security Register. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 6.11 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 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 its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor
Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 
  

 44 

 (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 (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable
to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and
(3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such
supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such
Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company
or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the
appointment of such successor Trustee relates. Whenever there is a successor Trustee with respect to one or more (but less than all) series of securities issued pursuant to this Indenture, the terms “Indenture” and “Securities”
shall have the meanings specified in the provisos to the respective definitions of those terms in Section 1.01 which contemplate such situation. 
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts
referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 
 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment
unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 Section 6.12
Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 Any Corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties

  

 45 

 
hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities; in case any of the Securities shall
not have been authenticated by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of such predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor
Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the
certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 
 The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a). A Trustee which has resigned or been removed is subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 
 Section 6.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, the Trustee, with the concurrence of the Company, may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall
be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series, 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. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this
Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent
and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a Corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the
United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by
federal, state or District of Columbia authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any Corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating 

  

 46 

 
Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any
time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving
such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which
shall be acceptable to the Company, in its sole discretion, and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will
serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an
alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 
 This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein
and referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
 Section 9.01 Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. 
 Without the consent of any Holders, the Company, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time,
may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes: 
 (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein and in the Securities; 
 (2) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such covenants are to
be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; 
 (3) to add any additional Events of Default (and if such Events of Default are to be for the benefit of less than all series of
Securities, stating that such Events of Default are being included solely for the benefit of such series);

(5) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture in respect of one or more series of Securities, provided
that any such addition, change or elimination (i) shall neither (A) apply to any Security of any series created 

  

 50 

 
prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (B) modify the rights of the Holder of any such
Security with respect to such provision or (ii) shall become effective only when there is no such Security Outstanding; 
 (6) to secure the Securities; 
 (7) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by
Sections 2.01 and 3.01; 
 (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, pursuant to the
requirements of Section 6.11(b); or 
 (9) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may
be inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any
series in any material respect; or 
 (10) to confirm any “automatic” amendment pursuant to Section 13.15.

 Notwithstanding any provision in this Indenture or otherwise, the rights of creditors in respect of General Obligations under this
Indenture and otherwise in respect of the Securities may, at any time and from time to time, be reduced or eliminated by a supplemental indenture entered into by the Company and the Trustee, which supplemental indenture will not require the consent
of the Holders of Securities or any creditor in respect of General Obligations. 
 Section 9.02 Supplemental Indentures with Consent
of Holders. 
 With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of
each series affected by such supplemental indenture, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto
for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture; provided,
however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby: 
 (1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, any such Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption
thereof, or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02, or change any Place of Payment where, or
the coin or currency in which, any such Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to 

  

 51 

 
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date) or modify the provisions of this Indenture with respect to the subordination of the Securities in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Securities; 
 (2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for
any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture; or 
 (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 5.13 or Section 10.07, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or
waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to “the Trustee”
and concomitant changes in this Section and Section 10.07, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 6.11(b) and 9.01(8). 
 A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which
modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture
supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed for such purpose, the Holders on such record date or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain
Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
 It shall not be necessary for any Act
of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 
 Section 9.03 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 
 In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be
obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Trustee, bear a notation in a form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the
Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series. 
 Section 9.07 Notice of Supplemental Indentures. 
 Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.02, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holders of each Outstanding
Security so affected, pursuant to Section 1.06, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. 
 ARTICLE TEN - COVENANTS 
 Section 10.01 Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 
 The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. In the absence of contrary provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of any series may, at the
option of the Company, be paid by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it appears on the Security Register. 
 Section 10.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of
Securities an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the
Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location and any change in the location of such office or agency. If at any time the Company
shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with 

  

 53 

 
the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company
hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from
time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designation; provided, however, that no such
designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee
of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
 Section 10.03 Money
for Securities Payments to be Held in Trust. 
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of
Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the currency in which
such series of Securities is payable sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sum shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of
its failure so to act. 
 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 a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act. 
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1)
hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed
of as herein provided; 
 (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities
of that series) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and 
 (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company
Order direct any 

  

 54 

 
Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as
those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall
be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money,
and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in
a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less
than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 10.04 Existence. 
 Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that
the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section 10.05 Maintenance of Properties. 
 The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary to be maintained as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection
therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in
the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section 10.06 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 
 The Company will pay or discharge or cause to
be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary,
and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or any Subsidiary; 

  

 55 

 
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim
whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. 
 Section 10.07 Waiver of
Certain Covenants. 
 The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in
Sections 10.04 to 10.06, inclusive, with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act
of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly
waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to waive any such term, provision
or condition. If a record date is fixed for such purpose, the Holders on such record date or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to waive any such term, provision or condition hereunder, whether or not such
Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall have waived such term, provision or condition prior to the date which
is 90 days after such record date, any such waiver previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect.

 Section 11.03 Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of like tenor of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than
60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of like tenor of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the
selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of like tenor of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the
minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the

 Section 13.02 Company not to Make Payments with Respect to Securities in Certain Circumstances. 
 No payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Securities shall be made and no Holder of the Securities shall be entitled to demand or

any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect) on all Senior Indebtedness of the Company have been paid in full or duly provided for, or (ii) if, at the time of such payment or immediately after giving effect
thereto, there shall exist with respect to any such Senior Indebtedness any event of default permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof or any event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become such an event of
default. 
 Section 13.03 Securities Subordinated to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness of the Company on Dissolution,
Liquidation or Reorganization of the Company; Subrogation. 
 Upon any distribution of the assets of the Company in connection with

Company or otherwise), the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness of the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and the interest due
thereon (including interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect) before the Holders of
the Securities are entitled to receive any payment upon the principal thereof (and premium, if any) or interest thereon; and, upon any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company
of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or

trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any
instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have

been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including
interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law now or hereafter in effect) on the Senior Indebtedness of the Company
held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to pay in full all such Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 
 If the Holders of the Securities or any of them, shall fail to file a proper claim in the form required in any proceeding referred to in the first
paragraph of this Section, prior to 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, and if the Trustee shall likewise fail, prior to 15 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, pursuant to the
authority granted to the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Sections 5.03 and 5.04, then the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim or claims for and on behalf of the Holders of the
Securities in the form required in any such proceeding. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any such dissolution,
winding up, liquidation or reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by
reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Securities, shall be received by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness of the Company is
paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such
Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution (or provision thereof) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 
 None of the payments or
distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article or of payments over, pursuant to the provisions of this Article, to the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness by the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the
Company to or on account of such Senior Indebtedness; it being understood that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Company, on the other hand. 
 Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the
Company, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the Securities shall be
paid in full. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company within the meaning of this Article. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01,
shall be entitled to assume that no such event has occurred and shall not be charged with 

  

 61 

 
knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee or the taking of any other action by
the Trustee, unless the Company or any one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness (or any one or more creditors in respect of General Obligations) or any trustee therefor who shall have been certified or otherwise established to the satisfaction of
the Trustee to be such a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or creditor in respect of General Obligations) or trustee has given written notice thereof to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office. Upon any distribution of assets
of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article Six, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon: (1) any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such
dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or (2) a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose
of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (and the creditors in respect of General Obligations), the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed
thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person, as a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a creditor
in respect of General Obligations), to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior
Indebtedness (or General Obligations) held by such Person, as to the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Section, and if such
evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. 
 Section 13.04 Obligation of the Company Unconditional. 
 Nothing contained in this Article or
elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or
hereafter in effect) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company, other
than the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and, in the case of Section 13.14, other than creditors in respect of General Obligations), nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Securities from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and the rights, if any, under Section 13.14 of creditors in respect of
General Obligations) in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. 
  

 62 

 Section 13.05 No Fiduciary Duty to Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, the Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness (or creditors in respect of General Obligations), and shall have no duties to such holders of Senior Indebtedness (or creditors in respect of General Obligations), except as expressly set forth in this Article and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be liable to holders of Senior Indebtedness (or creditors in respect of General Obligations) if it shall mistakenly pay over or distribute to or on behalf of
Holders of Securities or the Company monies or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness (or creditors in respect of General Obligations) shall be entitled by virtue of this Article. 
 Section 13.06 Notice to Trustees of Facts Prohibiting Payments. 
 Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Article or any other provision of this Indenture (other than Section 6.01), the Trustee shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts
which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee or the taking of any other action by the Trustee, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office written notice
thereof from the Company or from one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness (or from one or more creditors in respect of General Obligations) or from any trustee therefor who shall have been certified by the Company or otherwise established to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee to be such a holder (or creditor in respect of General Obligations) or trustee; and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled, subject to Section 6.01, in all respects
to assume that no such facts exist; provided that, if prior to the fifth business day preceding the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose, or in the event of the execution of an instrument pursuant to
Section 4.01 acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, then if prior to the second business day preceding the date of such execution, the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys the notice provided for in
this Section, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee may, in its discretion, receive such moneys and/or apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary, which may be received by it on or after such date; provided, however, no such application shall affect the obligations under this Article of the Persons receiving such moneys from the Trustee. 
 Section 13.07 Application by Trustee of Moneys Deposited with It. 
 Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, any deposit of moneys by the Company with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (whether or not in
trust) for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Securities shall, except as provided in Section 13.06, be subject to the provisions of Sections 13.01, 13.02 and 13.03. 
  

 63 

 Section 13.08 Subordination Rights not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of the Company or Holders of
Senior Indebtedness (or Creditors in Respect of General Obligations). 
 No right of any present or future holders of any Senior
Indebtedness (or any present or future creditors in respect of General Obligations) to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any
act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder of Senior Indebtedness (or such creditor in respect of General Obligations), or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of
any knowledge thereof with which any such holder of Senior Indebtedness (or any such creditor in respect of General Obligations) may have or be otherwise charged. The holders of Senior Indebtedness (and creditors of General Obligations) may at any
time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion change the manner, place or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, any such Senior Indebtedness (or any such General Obligation), or amend or
supplement any instrument pursuant to which any such Senior Indebtedness (or any such General Obligation) is issued or by which it may be secured, or release any security therefor or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights
under the Senior Indebtedness (or the General Obligation), including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, all without notice to or assent from the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee and without affecting the obligations of
the Company, the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities under this Article. 
 Section 13.09 Authorization of Trustee to Effectuate
Subordination of Securities. 
 Each Holder of a Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, authorizes and expressly directs the
Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, as between the Holders of the Securities and the holders of Senior Indebtedness (and creditors in respect of General Obligations), the
subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 Section 13.10
Right of Trustee to Hold Senior Indebtedness of the Company (or to be a Creditor in Respect of General Obligations of the Company). 
 The Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights set forth in this Article in respect of any Senior Indebtedness (or General Obligations) of the Company at any time held by it or owed to it to the same extent as any other holder of such
Senior Indebtedness (or creditor in respect of such General Obligations), and nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder (or creditor in respect of such General Obligations). 

Section 13.11 Article Thirteen not to Prevent Events of Default. 
 The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Securities by reason of any provision in this Article shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of
a default, a Default or an Event of Default. 
  

 64 

 Section 13.12 Article Applicable to Paying Agents. 
 In case at any time a Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term
“Trustee” as used in this Article shall in such case (unless the context shall require otherwise) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of
the Trustee; provided, however, that Sections 13.06 and 13.10 shall not apply to the Company if it acts as Paying Agent hereunder. 
 Section 13.13 Trustee Compensation not Prejudiced. 
 Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to,
the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07. 
 Section 13.14 Payment of Proceeds in Certain Cases. 
 (a) Upon any distribution of the assets of the Company in connection with the dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company
(whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company or otherwise), the provisions of Section 13.03 shall be
given effect to determine the amount of cash, property or securities which may be payable or deliverable as between the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the one hand, and the Holders of Securities, on the other hand. 
 (b) If, after giving effect to the provisions of Section 13.03, any amount of cash, property or securities shall be available for payment or
distribution in respect of the Securities (“Excess Proceeds”), and any creditors in respect of General Obligations shall not have received payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of such General Obligations,
then such Excess Proceeds shall first be applied (ratably with any amount of cash, property or securities available for payment or distribution in respect of any other indebtedness of the Company that by its express terms provides for the payment
over of amounts corresponding to Excess Proceeds to creditors in respect of General Obligations) to pay or provide for the payment of the General Obligations remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such General Obligations in full,
after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for creditors in respect of General Obligations. Any Excess Proceeds remaining after the payment (or provision for payment) in full of all General Obligations shall be available for
payment or distribution in respect of the Securities. 
 (c) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of subsection
(b) of this Section, upon any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or
distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Securities, shall be received by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Holders of the
Securities before all General Obligations are paid in full or payment thereof is duly provided for, subject to any obligation that the Trustee or such Holder may have pursuant to Section 13.03, such payment or distribution shall be paid over or
delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company for payment in accordance with subsection (b). 
  

 65 

 (d) Subject to the payment in full of all General Obligations, the Holders of the Securities shall be
subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company that by its express terms provides for the payment over of amounts corresponding to Excess Proceeds to creditors in respect of such General Obligations and is
entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the creditors in respect of such General Obligations to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to such General Obligations until the Securities shall be
paid in full, and none of the payments or distributions to creditors in respect of such General Obligations to which Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section and no payments over, pursuant
to the provisions of this Section, to creditors in respect of such General Obligations by Holders of Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than creditors in respect of such General Obligations, and the Holders
of Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of such General Obligations. 
 (e) The provisions
of subsections (b), (c) and (d) of this Section are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the creditors in respect of General Obligations, on the other hand,
after giving effect to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, as provided in this Article. Nothing contained in subsections (b), (c) and (d) of this Section is intended to or shall affect the relative rights against the Company
of the Holders of the Securities and (1) the holders of Senior Indebtedness or (2) other creditors of the Company other than creditors in respect of General Obligations. 
 Section 13.15 Automatic Termination. 
 Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Company will promptly notify the Trustee, this Indenture shall be automatically amended such that it no longer subordinates the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
the Securities to the prior payment of the General Obligations and the following provisions of this Indenture shall immediately and automatically terminate, be null and void ab initio and have no further effect: (1) the definitions of
“Excess Proceeds” and “General Obligations”; (2) clause (d) of Section 1.11; (3) the third paragraph of Section 2.03; (4) the last paragraph of Section 9.01; (5) all language in each
parenthetical containing the words “General Obligations” in Sections 13.03, 13.04, 13.05, 13.06, 13.08, 13.09 and 13.10; and (6) Section 13.14. The Trustee shall have the right at any time to request that the Company supply it
with an Opinion of Counsel as to whether a Termination Event shall have occurred, on which Opinion of Counsel the Trustee may rely. 
 ARTICLE FOURTEEN - MEETINGS OF HOLDERS OF SECURITIES 
 Section 14.01 Purposes for Which Meetings May Be Called.

 A meeting of Holders of Securities of any series may be called at any time and from time to time pursuant to this Article to make, give or

 66

Securities of such series for any purpose specified in Section 14.01, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have made the first publication of the notice
of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of such request or shall not thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the Company or the Holders of Securities of such series in the amount above specified, as the case
may be, may determine the time and the place for such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof as provided in subsection (a) of this Section. 
 Section 14.03 Persons Entitled to Vote at Meetings. 
 To be entitled to vote at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, a Person shall be (a) a Holder of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series, or (b) a Person appointed by an instrument
in writing as proxy for a Holder or Holders of one or more Outstanding Securities of such series by such Holder or Holders. The only Persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall
be the Persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel, any representatives of the Trustee and its counsel and any representatives of the Company and its counsel. 
 Section 14.04 Quorum; Action. 
 (a) The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series shall constitute a quorum for a meeting of Holders of Securities of such series; provided, however, that if any action is to be taken
at such meeting with respect to a consent or waiver which this Indenture expressly provides may be given by the Holders of not less than a specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series, the Persons entitled to
vote such specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes after the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at
the request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than ten days as determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the
absence of a quorum at the reconvening of any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period of not less than ten days; at the reconvening of any meeting adjourned or further adjourned for lack of a quorum, the
Persons entitled to vote 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting
shall be given as provided in Section 14.02(a), except that such notice need be given only once not less than five days prior to the date on which the meeting is scheduled to be reconvened. 
  

 67

binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series, whether or not present or represented at the meeting. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 14.04, if any action is to be taken at a meeting of Holders of Securities of any series with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action that this
Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in principal amount of all Outstanding Securities affected thereby, or of the Holders of such series and one or more additional series: 
 (i) there shall be no minimum quorum requirement for such meeting; and 
 (ii) the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series that vote in favor of such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be taken into account in determining whether such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action has been made, given or taken under this Indenture.

 Section 14.05 Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Holders
of Securities of a series in regard to proof of the holding of Securities of such series and of the appointment of proxies and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates
and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate. Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities shall be proved in the
manner specified in Section 1.04 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.04. Such regulations may provide that written instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed
valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.04 or other proof. 
 (b) The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing
appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 14.02(b), in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the series calling the
meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a 

  

 68 

 
temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting. 
 (c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of
such series or proxy shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any
Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security of such series or proxy. 
 (d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called pursuant to Section 14.02 at which a quorum is present may be adjourned from time
to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice. 
 Section 14.06 Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings. 
 The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of
their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all
votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in duplicate, of the proceedings
of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by
one or more persons having knowledge of the fact, setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 14.02 and, if applicable, Section 14.04. Each copy shall be signed and
verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such copy shall be delivered to the Company and another to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at
the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated.

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