            3. Physical Examination. Executive may, in his discretion, take an
annual physical examination during each year during the Term of this Agreement
with said physical examination(s) conducted at the expense of Bank.

      C. COMPENSATION

            1. Salary. For Executive's services hereunder, Bank shall pay, or
cause to be paid, as annual gross base salary, to Executive the amount of not
less than $94,500 during each of the years of the Term, beginning with the
Effective Date. Executive's salary shall be payable in equal installments in
conformity with Bank's normal payroll periods as in effect from time to time.
The Board of Directors shall also, from time to time, and at least once each
year grant such additional "merit" increases, if any, in, the base salary as are
determined after review to be appropriate in the discretion of the Board of
Directors. Bank and Executive both contemplate that his base salary shall be
increased as Bank grows and profits. Executive shall also, so long as he serves
on the Board of Directors, be entitled to directors and committee fees, and any
other compensation or benefits provided to outside directors of Bank (including,
but not limited to, committee fees, any director retirement benefits, any stock
options granted to directors in such capacity, etc.) in addition to the
compensation and benefits provided to him as an employee pursuant to this
Agreement.

      D. EXECUTIVE BENEFITS

            1. Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to a vacation leave
accruing at the rate of one and one-half vacation days for each month in which
he works (and a pro rata portion thereof for partial weeks, except that banking
holidays shall be treated as days worked) during each year of the Term, of which
two weeks must be taken consecutively in each year. Executive shall be entitled
to vacation pay in lieu of vacation. Time spent by Executive at (or traveling to
and from) seminars, conventions or conferences related to Bank business shall
not be counted against his vacation leave.

            2. Automobile. Bank shall provide for the use of Executive a
suitable automobile (equivalent to, or better than, a Lexus LS 430),
commensurate with his position, and shall pay all the expenses (including, but
not limited to, maintenance, fuel, insurance, registration) related thereto
during the Term.

            3. Group Medical and Life Insurance Benefits. Bank shall provide for
Executive, at Bank's expense during the Term, and after the Term until death in
accordance with Bank's policy now in effect or as shall be amended as soon as
practicable to provide for ongoing coverage upon the events described in such
policy, participation in a comprehensive major medical and dental, with life
insurance benefits, equivalent to the maximum available from time to time under
the California Bankers Association Group Insurance Program for an employee of
Executive's salary level. Any such insurance for which Executive votes in favor
as a director, or endorses as an officer, shall be deemed to meet the
requirements of this Section. Term life insurance benefits shall be provided to
Executive, at Bank's expense during the Term, in an amount not less than
$150,000, with Executive to be entitled to make an irrevocable designation

                                  Page 2 of 10
<PAGE>

of the beneficiary and owner of the policy thereunder. Executive's Salary
Continuation Agreement with Bank currently in effect shall be maintained by Bank
during the Term.

            4. Bonus. For each year end within the Term, Executive shall be
entitled to an Incentive Bonus determined in accordance with this Section if the
Threshold Test is met. The Threshold Test shall be deemed to have been met if
one or more of the following exists: (i) Bank's regular outside independent loan
reviewer gives a favorable review of the loan quality of Bank at, or within four
months of, the end of the year; (ii) net loan losses for the year do not exceed
one percent of gross outstanding loans at the beginning of the year; or (iii)
the latest report of supervisory activity of Bank by the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (or other bank regulatory agency) rates Bank no less
than satisfactory. The Incentive Bonus shall equal 3.75% of Bank's "Profits."
For purposes of this Section 4, "Profits" shall mean Bank's net income before
income taxes and before the effect of this bonus or any other bonuses based on
the profits of Bank.

            The Incentive Bonus shall be payable in January of the year
following completion of the year on which it is based, or as soon thereafter as
is practical after Bank's certified public accountants have delivered their
report on Bank's condition and results of operations for the year.

            5. Sick Leave. Executive shall be entitled to sick leave in
accordance with Bank's Personnel Policy, accruing at a rate of not less than six
tenths of one day per month or partial month of service. Accrued sick leave may
be carried over from prior periods, but Executive shall not be entitled to be
paid in lieu thereof.

            6. Disability Coverage.

            After age 65, in the event of Executive's disability as determined
under applicable policies of Bank covering Executive, Bank shall pay to
Executive the difference between the amount received by Executive under the then
in effect Bank disability policies and $10,000 per month until September 16,
2006.

      E. BUSINESS EXPENSES AND REIMBURSEMENT

            1. Business Expenses. Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement
by Bank for any ordinary and necessary business expenses incurred by Executive
in the performance of Executive's duties and in acting for Bank during the Term,
provided that an independent officer of Bank approves such expenses in
accordance with the standards set forth herein. Executive shall furnish to Bank
adequate records and other documentary evidence required by federal and state
statutes and regulations issued by the appropriate taxing authorities for the
substantiation of such payments as deductible business expenses of Bank and not
as deductible compensation to Executive; provided, however, that reimbursement
of such expenses shall not be dependent on proving deductibility of such
expenses for tax purposes if such

                                  Page 3 of 10
<PAGE>

expenses are otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, in its sole
discretion, to be appropriate.

      F. TERMINATION

            1. Termination With Cause. Except as otherwise provided herein, this
Agreement may be terminated by Bank, at Bank's option with notice to Executive,
upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

                  (a) Executive is convicted of illegal activity by a court of
competent jurisdiction or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, illegal activity,
which activity materially adversely affects Bank's reputation in the community
or which evidences the lack of Executive's fitness or ability to perform
Executive's duties, as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith;

                  (b) Executive has committed any illegal or dishonest act which
would cause termination of coverage under Bank's Bankers Blanket Bond as to
Employee, as distinguished from termination of coverage as to Bank as a whole;

                  (c) Executive after written notice from the Board of Directors
specifying the event and how it can be corrected again materially fails to
perform or habitually neglects Executive's duties;

                  (d) Executive becomes permanently disabled as such is defined
in his or Bank's disability insurance policies (or if no such definition, as
defined by federal law or regulation pursuant to the Social Security Act or a
related statute), such disability makes Executive eligible for benefits
thereunder, and any relevant waiting periods have passed. Any controversy
concerning Executive's disability shall be settled by arbitration in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any termination pursuant
to this subsection (d) shall not affect the continued operation of that portion
of Section D.6. hereof which is intended to survive Executive's disability;

                  (e) The Comptroller of the Currency, or any other regulatory
agency having jurisdiction, finally removes, or suspends Executive from office;

                  (f) The Comptroller of the Currency or other supervisory or
regulatory authority having jurisdiction takes possession of the property and
business of Bank; or

                  (g) Any regulatory authority having supervisory authority over
Bank exercises its cease and desist authority to remove Executive from office or
advises Bank that Executive should be removed from office.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been
terminated pursuant to Section F.1. unless and until there has been delivered to
him a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than
two-thirds of the entire authorized membership of the Board of Directors at a
meeting of the Board of Directors called and held for

                                  Page 4 of 10
<PAGE>

the purpose (after reasonable notice and an opportunity for Executive, together
with counsel, to be heard before the Board of Directors), finding that in the
good faith opinion of the Board of Directors he engaged in conduct set forth
above in clauses (a) through (g) of this Section F.1. and specifying the
particulars thereof in detail.

            2. Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason.

                  (a) During the Term, this Agreement may be terminated by Bank
without cause upon written notice to Executive or by Executive for Good Reason,
as defined below.

                  (b) During the Term, this Agreement may be terminated by
Executive without cause upon written notice to Bank.

            3. Compensation Upon Termination.

                  (a) If Executive's employment with Bank is terminated by Bank
pursuant to Section F.1., or by Executive pursuant to Section F.2.(b), Executive
shall then only be entitled to receive the amount of his annual gross salary, as
in effect immediately prior to termination, payable through the effective date
of such termination plus proration of the Incentive Bonus described in Section
D.4. above (calculated as provided in Section F.3(b)) and the amounts specified
in Section D.6. as well as any incurred but not yet reimbursed business expenses
(subject to the provisions of Section E.1. hereof). Other than the amounts
payable over time under Section D.6, the amounts payable under this Section
F.3(a) shall be paid in a lump sum upon termination.

                  (b) If Executive's employment is terminated by Bank or any
successor pursuant to Section F.2.(a), by Executive pursuant to Section F.2.(a)
or by Bank or any successor within one year before or after any Change of
Control, as defined below, and such termination is not based upon Section F.1.,
he shall be entitled to the same amount as if the termination had been pursuant
to Section F.1., plus an immediate payment in an amount equal to the greater of:
(i) one times the annual gross base salary of Executive (as in effect
immediately prior to termination) plus the amount equal to the Incentive Bonus
provided in Section D.4. above as though a full year had lapsed (calculated as
follows: the dollar amount of the Incentive Bonus for the number of months
lapsed in the year of termination, divided by the number of months lapsed in
that year and the resulting number multiplied by 12, less the amount of the
Incentive Bonus, if any, paid in the year of termination pursuant to Section G
below; or (ii) two times Executive's annual gross base salary, as in effect
immediately prior to termination, to be paid in a lump sum, less any applicable
withholding deductions.

                                  Page 5 of 10
<PAGE>

                  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that 12
U.S.C. ss.1828 and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto prohibit, or limit,
the payment of compensation pursuant to this Section F.3., Executive's right to
compensation hereunder shall be similarly prohibited or limited.

                  (d) Good Reason shall mean that without Executive's express
written consent, the assignment to Executive of any duties inconsistent with his
positions, duties, responsibilities and status with Bank; or a change in his
reporting responsibilities, titles or offices; or any removal of Executive from
or any failure to re-elect Executive to any of such positions, except in
connection with the termination of his employment pursuant to Section F.1. or
retirement or as a result of his death or by Executive other than for Good
Reason; or a reduction by Bank in Executive's annual gross base salary as in
effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time.

                  (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
if Executive's employment with Bank is terminated by the Bank pursuant to
Section F.2(a), by Executive pursuant to Section F.2(a), by Executive after he
reaches the age of 65 under Section F.2(b), or by Bank or any successor within
one year before or after any Change of Control and such termination following a
Change of Control is not based on Section F.1, Executive shall continue to
receive the comprehensive major medical and dental, and life insurance benefits
until death as set forth in Section D.3.

      G. Change of Control Benefit.

            Upon a Change of Control, as defined below, Executive shall be
entitled to receive his Section D.4 Incentive Bonus as of the effective date of
the Change of Control for the year in which the Change of Control occurs. Such
Incentive Bonus shall be calculated as follows: the Incentive Bonus for the
number of months lapsed in the year in which the Change of Control occurs
divided by the number of months lapsed in the year in which the Change of
Control occurs and the resulting number multiplied by 12. Such Incentive Bonus
shall be paid effective at the Change of Control.

            1. Change of Control. The term "Change of Control" pursuant to this
Section G shall have the following meaning:

                  (a) A reorganization, merger, consolidation or other form of
corporate transaction or series of transactions, in each case, with respect to
which persons who were the shareholders of Bank or its parent immediately prior
to such reorganization, merger or consolidation or other transaction do not,
immediately thereafter, directly or indirectly, own more than 75% of the
combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of director of
the reorganized, merged or consolidated entity's then outstanding voting
securities;

                  (b) A liquidation or dissolution of the Bank effected by the
Bank;

                                  Page 6 of 10
<PAGE>

                  (c) The sale of more than 50% of the assets of Bank to any
person or entity not controlled by or under common control with Bank (unless
such reorganization, merger, consolidation or other corporate transaction,
liquidation, dissolution or sale is subsequently abandoned); or

                  (d) The acquisition by any person, entity or "group", within
the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act,
(excluding any employee benefit plan of Bank, its subsidiaries or its parent
which acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act)) of: (i) more than 25% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting stock of the Bank or its parent; or
(ii) more than 9.9% and up to and including 25% of the outstanding shares of any
class of voting stock of the Bank or its parent, if after the acquisition, no
other person, entity or "group" would beneficially own a greater percentage of
such class of voting shares than the acquiror(s).

      H. GENERAL PROVISIONS

            1. Ownership of Books and Records; Confidentiality.

materials owned by Bank or used by it in connection with the conduct of its
business, whether prepared by Executive or otherwise coming into his possession,
shall be the exclusive property of Bank regardless of who actually prepared the
original material, book or record. All such books and records and other
materials, together with all copies thereof, shall be immediately returned to

entitled to copies of any policies, procedures or forms prepared with his
assistance.

                  (b) During the Term, Executive will have access to and become

knowledge or data concerning Bank, including its operations and business, and
the identity of customers of Bank, including knowledge of their financial
condition, their financial needs, as well as their methods of doing business.
Executive shall not disclose any of the aforesaid trade secrets, directly or
indirectly, or use them in any way, either during the Term or thereafter, except
as required in the course of Executive's employment with Bank. Executive shall
not solicit any employee or customer of Bank to become an employee or customer
of another institution until six months following the termination; provided,
however, that Executive shall not be prohibited from soliciting customers with
which he had a banking relationship established at another employer prior to the
commencement of the term hereof.

 Section 103. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. 
  
 In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is
not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters
and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
  
 Any certificate or opinion of an officer of the Company may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous.
Any such certificate or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Company stating that the information with respect to such
factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 
  
 Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
  

	Section	104. Acts of Holders; Record Dates. 

  
 (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may
be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective
when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as
the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of 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 601)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 
  
 (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by
a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. 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 the authority of the Person
executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
  

 10 

 (c) The Company may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, fix any day as the record
date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or to vote on any action, authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders. If
not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if
later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 701) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be, with regard to any record date. Only the Holders on such date (or their duly designated
proxies) shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action. 
  
 (d) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. 
  
 (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of 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 by the Trustee or the Company in reliance
thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
  
 Section 105. Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Company. 
  
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
  
 (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or 
  
 (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously
furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 
  
 Section 106. Notice to
Holders, Waiver. 
  
 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 (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), 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 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 
  

 11 

 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 with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
  
 Section 107. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of
the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any 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. 
  
 Section 108. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 
  
 The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
  
 Section 109. Successors and Assigns. 
  
 All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its
successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 
  
 Section 110.
Separability Clause. 
  
 In case any provision in this
Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
  
 Section 111. Benefits of Indenture. 
  
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
  
 Section 112. Governing Law. 
  
 This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 
  
 Section 113.
Legal Holidays. 
  
 In any case where any Interest Payment
Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need 
  

 12 

 not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day 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.

 Exelon Generation Company, LLC, a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor
Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received and intending to be legally bound hereby, hereby promises to pay to , or registered assigns, the principal sum set forth above [to be inserted in Global Securities—or such
other principal sum on the schedule attached hereto (which shall not exceed U.S. $                        ) (which principal
amount may from time to time be increased or decreased to such other principal amounts by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee hereinafter referred to in accordance with the Indenture)] [to be inserted in definitive Securities – upon
surrender] on January 15, 2014, and to pay interest thereon from                      or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest
has been paid or duly provided for [If Exchange Securities, then insert: on the Original Securities], semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 in each year commencing
                 ,                  at the rate of 5.35% per annum, until the principal
hereof is paid in full or made available for payment. [If Original Securities, then insert: ; provided, however, that if (i) on or prior to the 270th day following the original issue date of the Securities, neither (x) an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) registered pursuant to the Company’s registration statement (the
“Exchange Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act, registering a security substantially identical to this Security (except that such Security will not contain terms with respect to the Special Interest payments described below or
transfer restrictions) has been consummated nor (y) if applicable, in lieu thereof, a registration statement registering this Security for resale (a “Resale Registration Statement”) has become or been declared effective; or (ii) either the
Exchange Registration Statement or, if applicable, the Resale Registration Statement is filed and declared effective (except as specifically permitted therein) but shall thereafter cease to be effective without being succeeded promptly by an
additional registration statement filed and declared effective, in each case (i) and (ii) upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement (each such event referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Special Interest
Payment Event”), then additional interest will accrue (in addition to interest at the stated rate above) (the “Step-Up”) from the date of such Special Interest Payment Event at a rate of 0.50% per annum, determined daily, on the
principal amount hereof, and such additional interest shall be payable until such time (the “Step Down Date”) as no Special Interest Payment Event is in effect or the first date the Securities become freely tradeable under Rule 144(k) of
the Securities Act. Interest accruing as a result of the Step-Up (which shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed) is referred to herein as “Special Interest.” Accrued Special Interest, if any,
shall be paid semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 in each year. Any accrued and unpaid interest (including Special Interest) on this Security upon the issuance of an Exchange Security (as defined in the Indenture) in exchange for this Security
shall cease to be payable to the Holder hereof but such accrued and unpaid interest (including Special Interest) shall be payable on the next Interest Payment Date for such Exchange Security to the Holder thereof on the related Regular Record Date.]

  

 15 

 The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the January 1 or July 1
(whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, it shall be postponed to the following Business Day. 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 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 may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 
  
 If this Security is issued in the form of a Global Security, payments of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security shall be made in immediately available funds to the Depositary. If this Security is issued in certificated form, payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security will be made at the corporate trust office of the Trustee or the office of the Company in The City of New York, New York maintained for such purpose, and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose, in such coin
or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; 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. 
  
 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.

 Section 203. Form of Reverse of
Security. 
  
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue
of [Original] [Exchange] Securities of the Company designated as its 5.35% Senior Notes due 2014 (herein called the “Securities”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of December 19, 2003 (herein called the “Indenture”), between
the Company and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). The Securities will be unlimited in aggregate principal amount. The Original
Securities will initially be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue additional Securities (the “Additional Securities”) ranking equally with the
Securities and otherwise similar in all respects so that the Additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities. The Company may not issue Additional Securities if an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing with respect to the Securities. [If Original Securities, then insert: The Company may issue Exchange Securities substantially identical to this Security (except that such Exchange Security will not contain terms with respect to the
payment of Special Interest (as described on the face of this Security) or transfer restrictions) pursuant to an Exchange Offer or, in lieu thereof, a Resale Registration Statement.] Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. 
  
 The Securities are subject to
redemption upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice by mail, at any time, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be
redeemed, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date, or (b) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (not including any
portion of payments of interest 
  

 17 

 accrued as of the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis at the Adjusted Treasury
Rate plus 20 basis points, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date. 
  
 The Redemption Price will be calculated assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 “Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of
the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date. 
  
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury
security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities that would be used, at the time of the selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate
debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Securities. 
  
 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date: (a) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (b) if the Trustee obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations so received. 
  
 “Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by
the Company. 
  
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means (a)
each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which
case the Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (b) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company. 
  
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined
by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the third business day preceding that Redemption Date. 
  
 In the
event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
  
 The Securities do not have the benefit of any sinking fund obligations.

  
 In the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this
Security (including upon an exchange, transfer, redemption or repurchase of this Security in part only) effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the Security Registrar, upon receipt of notice of such event from the Depositary’s
custodian for this Security, shall make an adjustment on its records 
  

 18 

 to reflect an increase or decrease of the Outstanding principal amount of this Security resulting from such deposit or
withdrawal, as the case may be. 
  
 If an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
  
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (i) the entire indebtedness of this Security, or (ii) certain restrictive covenants and
Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein. 
  
 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 under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also
contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, 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. 
  
 As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to
institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default,
the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity,
and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Securities a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due
dates expressed herein. 
  
 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. 
  
 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 The
City of New York, New York, 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 attorney 
  

 19 

 duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of the same tenor, of authorized denominations and
for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
  
 The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof as provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of the same tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same. 
  
 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 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. 
  
 Interest [if an Original Security, then
insert: (other than Special Interest)] on this Security shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
  
 Section 204. Additional Provisions Required in Global Security.

contained in Sections 202 and 203, bear a legend in substantially the following form:

OTHER ENTITY AS IS 
  

 20 

 REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY
A PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.]

 The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Original Securities will
initially be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000, except for Additional Securities and Securities authenticated and delivered pursuant to Section 306. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue
Additional Securities ranking equally with the Securities and otherwise similar in all respects so that the Additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities. The Trustee shall authenticate Additional
Securities upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate, subject to Section 303, specifying the amount of Additional Securities to be authenticated. 
  
 The Company may issue as Exchange Securities another series of Securities from time to time pursuant to an Exchange Offer, in each case pursuant to a
Authorizing Resolution, subject to Section 303, included in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, in authorized denominations in exchange for a like principal amount of Original Securities. Upon any such exchange the Original
Securities shall be canceled in accordance with Section 309 and shall no longer be deemed Outstanding for any purpose. 
  
 The Securities shall be known and designated as the “5.35% Senior Notes due 2014” of the Company. Their Stated Maturity shall be January 15,
2014, and they shall bear interest from December 19, 2003, in the case of the Original Securities, from the date of authentication, in the case of Additional Securities, and from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest on the
Original Securities has been paid, in the case of the Exchange 
  

 21 

 Securities and thereafter, in all cases from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or
duly provided for, at a per annum interest rate of 5.35%, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment; provided, however, with respect to Original Securities, if there has been a Special Interest Payment Event, a
Step-Up will occur and the Original Securities will from such date bear Special Interest until the Step-Down Date. Accrued Special Interest, if any, shall be paid in cash in arrears semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 in each year, and the
amount of accrued Special Interest shall be determined on the basis of a 365-day year and the number of days actually elapsed. In connection with the cash payment of any Special Interest, the Company shall notify the Trustee (the “Special
Interest Notice”) on or before the later to occur of (i) the Regular Record Date preceding such payment of any Special Interest, and (ii) the date on which any such Additional Interest begins to accrue, of the amount of Special Interest to be
paid by the Company on the next Interest Payment Date. In the event of the occurrence of a Step-Down Date during the period between the date on which the Special Interest Notice is given and the next Interest Payment Date, the Company shall so
notify the Trustee and shall provide the Trustee with the revised amount of Special Interest to be paid by the Company on such Interest Payment Date. 
  
 If the Securities are issued in the form of a Global Security, payments of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities shall be
made in immediately available funds to the Depositary. If the Securities are issued in certificated form, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be payable at the corporate trust office of the Trustee in The City
of New York, New York, maintained for such purpose and at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose; 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. 
  
 The Securities shall be redeemable as provided in Article Eleven. 
  

The Securities shall not have the benefit of any sinking fund obligations. 
  
 Section 302. Denominations. 
  
 The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

  
 Section 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

  
 The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by
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 executed by the Company to the Trustee for 
  

 22 

 authentication, together with the items specified in the following paragraph; and the Trustee in accordance with such
Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise. 
  
 The Company’s request to the Trustee to authenticate Securities shall be accompanied by the following: 
  
 (1) A Company Order requesting authentication and specifying the principal
amount of the Securities to be authenticated and whether such Securities are Original Securities, Additional Securities or Exchange Securities. 
  
 (2) An Authorizing Resolution. 
  
 (3) In the case of Additional Securities, an Officer’s Certificate that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
  
 (4) In the case of Exchange Securities, delivery to the Trustee of a like
principal amount of Original Securities for cancellation. 
  
 (5)
An Opinion of Counsel that the Securities have been duly and validly issued in accordance with the Indenture and are entitled to the rights and benefits set forth herein and, in the case of the issuance of Exchange Securities, that the exchange for
Original Securities has been effected in compliance with the Act. 
  
 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. 
  
 Section 304. Temporary Securities. 
  
 Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, 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. The Global
Securities shall be issued only as temporary Securities. 
  
 If
temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon
surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in 
  

 23 

 exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the
temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities. 
  
 Section 305. Registration; Restriction on Transfer and Exchange. 
  
 (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other
office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of 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. 
  
 Such Security Register shall distinguish between Original Securities,
Exchange Securities and any Additional Securities. 
  
 Subject to
other provisions of this Indenture regarding restrictions on transfer, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same tenor of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such
restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. 
  
 At
the option of the Holder and subject to the other provisions of this Section 305, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of the same tenor of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing the applicable
legends set forth in Section 202, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
  
 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. 
  
 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 
  

 24 

 exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1108 not involving any transfer. 

 
 The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of
or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities selected for redemption under Section 1104 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. 
  
 (b) Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture or the Securities, transfers and exchanges of Securities and beneficial interests in a Global Security of the kinds specified in this Section 305(b) shall be made only in accordance with this Section 305(b). 

 
 (i) Non-Global Security to Non-Global Security. A
Security that is not a Global Security may be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Security that is not a Global Security as provided in Section 305(a), provided that, if the Security to be
transferred in whole or in part is a Restricted Security, or is a Regulation S Security and the transfer is to occur during the Restricted Period, then the Trustee shall have received (i) a Restricted Securities Certificate, satisfactory to the
Trustee and duly executed by the transferor Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, in which case the transferee Holder shall take delivery in the form of a Restricted Security or (ii) a Regulation S Certificate, satisfactory to the
Trustee and duly executed by the transferor Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, in which case the transferee Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing shall take delivery in the form of a Regulation S Security. 
  
 (ii) Exchange of Book-Entry Securities for Certificated
Securities. A beneficial interest in a Global Security may not be exchanged for a Security in certificated form unless (i) DTC (x) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Security or (y) has
ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in either case the Company thereupon fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days, (ii) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to
cause the issuance of the Securities in certificated form or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or any event which after notice or lapse of time or both would be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities.
In all cases, certificated Securities delivered in exchange for any Global Security or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance
with its customary procedures). Any certificated Security issued in exchange for an interest in a Global Security will bear the legend restricting transfers that is borne by such Global Security. Any such exchange will be effected through the DWAC
System and an appropriate adjustment will be made in the records of the Security Registrar to reflect a decrease in the principal amount of the relevant Global Security. 
  

 25 

 (iii) Restricted Global Security to Regulation S Global Security. If the owner of
a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to acquire the same in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security, such transfer may be effected
only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 305(b)(iii) and Section 305(b)(v) below and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, or (i) an order given by the Depositary or its authorized
representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security in a specified principal amount be created to a specified Agent Member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in an
equal amount be debited from another specified Agent Member’s account and (ii) a Regulation S Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly executed by the Holder of such Restricted Global Security or his attorney in fact duly authorized in
writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar but subject to Section 305(b)(v) below, shall reduce the principal amount of such Restricted Global Security and increase the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Security by such specified
principal amount. 
  
 (iv) Regulation S Global
Security to Restricted Global Security. If the owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to acquire the same in the form of a beneficial interest in the
Restricted Global Security, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this Section 305(b)(iv) and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (i) an order given by the Depositary or its
authorized representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in a specified principal amount be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global
Security in an equal principal amount be debited from another specified Agent Member’s account and (ii) if such transfer is to occur during the Restricted Period, a Restricted Securities Certificate, satisfactory to the Trustee and duly
executed by the Holder of such Regulation S Global Security or his attorney in fact duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar, shall reduce the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Security and increase the
principal amount of such Restricted Global Security by such specified principal amount. 
  
 (v) Regulation S Global Security to be Held Through Euroclear or Clearstream during Restricted Period. The Company shall use its
best efforts to cause the Depositary to ensure that, until the expiration of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Security may be held only in or through accounts maintained at the Depositary by Euroclear and
Clearstream (or by Agent Members acting for the account thereof), and no person shall be entitled to effect any transfer or exchange that would result in any such interest being held otherwise than in or through such an account; provided that
this Section 305(b)(v) shall not prohibit any transfer or exchange of such an interest in accordance with Section 305(b)(iv) above. 
  
 (c) Securities Act Legends. Rule 144A Securities and their Successor Securities shall bear the Restricted Securities Legend and Regulation S
Securities and their Successor Securities shall bear the Regulation S Legend, subject to the following: 
  

 26 

 (i) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 305(c), a Security or any portion
thereof which is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such Global Security while represented thereby; 
  
 (ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section
305(c), a new Security which is not a Global Security and is issued in exchange for another Security (including a Global Security) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such other Security,
provided that, if such new Security is required pursuant to Section 305(b)(ii) to be issued in the form of a Restricted Security, it shall bear the Restricted Securities Legend and, if such new Security is so required to be issued in the form
of a Regulation S Security, it shall bear the Regulation S Legend; 
  
 (iii) a new Security which does not bear a Securities Act Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if, in the
Company’s judgment, placing such a legend upon such new Security is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver
such a new Security as provided in this Article Three; and 
  
 (iv) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 305(c), a Successor Security of a Security that does not bear a particular form of Securities Act Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the
Company has reasonable cause to believe that such Successor Security is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144, in which case the Trustee, at the direction of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver a new Security
bearing the Restricted Securities Legend in exchange for such Successor Security as provided in this Article Three. 
  
 Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 
  
 If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
  
 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 the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security 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. 
  

 27 

 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 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 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 307.
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
  
 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 at the close
of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 
  
 Any
interest (including Special Interest) on any Security 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 (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money
equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, and such money when deposited shall 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 at his address as it appears in the Security
Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of 
  

 28 

 such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted
Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

  
 (2) The Company may make payment of any
Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the 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. 
  
 (3) 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 308. 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 as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) 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. 
  
 Section 309. Cancellation. 
  
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange 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 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 disposed of as directed by a Company Order. 
  
 Section 310. Computation of Interest. 
  
 Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, except that Special Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

  

 29 

 Section 311. CUSIP Numbers. 
  
 The Company in issuing Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) in addition to serial
numbers; if so, the Trustee shall use such CUSIP numbers in addition to serial numbers in notices of redemption and repurchase as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the
correctness of such CUSIP numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the serial or other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any
such redemption or repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP numbers. 
  
 ARTICLE FOUR

 Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge
of Indenture. 
  
 This Indenture shall cease to be of further

caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust sufficient cash or Government Securities for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee

 Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
  
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section
501(6) or (7)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may declare the principal of all the Securities 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 shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or (7) occurs, the principal of
and interest on all the Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. 
  
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money
due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, 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, 
  
 (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities, 
  
 (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the Securities, and 
  
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
  
 and 
  
 (2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the
principal of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
  
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 
  
 The Company covenants that if 
  
 (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any
Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
  

 33 

 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any
Security at the Maturity thereof, 
  
 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 borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders
by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
  
 Section 504. Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 In case of any judicial
proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under
the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized 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 607. 
  
 No
provision of this Indenture 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 505. 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, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

thereof if fully paid: 
  
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts
due the Trustee under Section 607; and 
  
 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. 
  
 Section 507. Limitation on Suits. 
  
 No Holder of any Security 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; 
  
 (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities 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;

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

 35 

 Section 508. 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 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated 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 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
  
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any
right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, 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 510. 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 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or
remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
  
 Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 
  
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security 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 512. Control by Holders.

of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee,
provided that 
  
 (1) such direction shall
not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and 
  

 36 

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

 (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security, 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 affected. 
  
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose
of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Section 514. Undertaking for Costs. 
  
 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, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act;
provided, that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or the Trustee. 
  
 Section 515. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
  
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will
not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law 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.

Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture, or 
  
 (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 513 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. 
  

 45 

 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 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 
  
 In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated
to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
  
 Section 904. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. 
  
 Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental

 Section 905. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act.

any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new
Securities 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. 
  
 ARTICLE TEN 
  
 Covenants 
  
 Section 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 
  
 The Company will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in accordance
with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture. 
  

 46 

 Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
  
 If the Securities are not issued as Global Securities, the Company will maintain in The City of New York, New York an office
or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities 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 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 (in or outside The City of New York, New York) where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such
designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York, New York 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 1003. Money for Security Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
  
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on
any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
  
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents, it will, prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any
Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held as provided by the Trust Indenture Act, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or
failure so to act. 
  
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent
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 comply with the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment in respect of the Securities, upon the written request of the Trustee,
forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent as such. 
  
 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 Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums
held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, 
  

 47 

 such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms 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 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, 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 1004. Statement by Officers as to Default. 
  
 The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the
date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without
regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 
  
 Section 1005. 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. 
  
 Section 1006. 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 upon the income, profits or property of the Company, 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; 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. 
  

 48 

 Section 1007. Restrictions on Certain Liens. 
  
 The Company will not issue, assume, guarantee or permit to exist any Indebtedness secured by any lien on any property of the
Company, whether owned on the date that the Securities are issued or thereafter acquired, without in any such case effectively securing the Outstanding Securities (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of or
guaranteed by the Company ranking equally with the Securities) equally and ratably with such Indebtedness (but only so long as such Indebtedness is so secured); provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to the
following permitted liens: 
  
 (i) pledges or
deposits in the ordinary course of business in connection with bids, tenders, contracts or statutory obligations or to secure surety or performance bonds, 
  
 (ii) liens imposed by law, such as carriers’, warehousemen’s and mechanics’ liens, arising in the ordinary course of
business, 
  
 (iii) liens for property taxes
being contested in good faith, 
  
 (iv) minor
encumbrances, easements or reservations which do not in the aggregate materially adversely affect the value of the properties or impair their use, 
  
 (v) liens on property existing at the time of acquisition thereof by the Company, or to secure any indebtedness incurred by the Company
prior to, at the time of, or within 90 days after the later of the acquisition, the completion of construction (including any improvements on an existing property) or the commencement of commercial operation of the property, which indebtedness is
incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or construction or improvements, 
  
 (vi) liens to secure purchase money Indebtedness not in excess of the cost or value of the property acquired, 
  
 (vii) mortgages securing obligations issued by a state,
territory or possession of the United States, or any political subdivision of any of the foregoing or the District of Columbia, to finance the acquisition or construction of property, and on which the interest is not, in the opinion of tax counsel
of recognized standing or in accordance with a ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service, includible in gross income of the holder by reason of Section 103(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor to such provision) as in effect at
the time of the issuance of such obligations, or 
  
 (viii) other liens to secure Indebtedness so long as the amount of outstanding Indebtedness secured by liens pursuant to this provision does not exceed 10% of the Company’s consolidated net tangible assets. 
  
 In the event that the Company shall propose to pledge, mortgage or
hypothecate any property, other than as permitted by clauses (i) through (viii) of the previous paragraph, the Company shall (prior thereto) give written notice thereof to the Trustee, who shall give notice to 
  

 49 

 the Holders, and the Company shall, prior to or simultaneously with such pledge, mortgage or hypothecation, effectively
secure all the Securities equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. 
  
 Section
1008. Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions. 
  
 The
Company shall not enter into any Sale/Leaseback Transaction with any Subsidiary. In addition, the Company shall not enter into any Sale/Leaseback Transaction unless: 
  
 (i) the Sale/Leaseback Transaction is entered into prior to, concurrently with or within 90 days after the
acquisition, the completion of construction (including any improvements on an existing property) or the commencement of commercial operations of the property; or 
  
 (ii) the Company could otherwise grant a lien on the property as a permitted lien described in Section 1007.
In determining whether the Company could have granted a lien on a property the subject of a Sale/Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 1007(v), the amount of Indebtedness being secured shall be deemed to be equal to the amount capitalized, under
generally accepted accounting principles, in respect of the lease involved in such Sale/Leaseback transaction. 
  
 Section 1009. Limitation on Asset Sales. 
  
 Except for the sale of the Company’s properties and assets substantially as an entirety as described in Section 801, and other than assets required to be sold to conform with governmental regulations, the Company
shall not consummate any Asset Sale if the aggregate book value of all such Asset Sales consummated since the date of issuance of the Securities would exceed 25% of the Company’s net tangible assets as of the beginning of the Company’s
most recently ended full fiscal quarter; provided, however, that any such Asset Sale will be disregarded for purposes of the 25% limitation specified herein if the proceeds thereof are (i) within twelve (12) months of such Asset Sale,
invested or reinvested by the Company in new generation assets, or (ii) used by the Company to repay its Indebtedness. 
  
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 
  
 Redemption of Securities 
  
 Section 1101. Right of Redemption. 
  
 The
Securities may be redeemed at the election of the Company, as a whole or from time to time in part, at the Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the
Redemption Date, or (b) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (not including any portion of payments of interest accrued as
of the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date. 
  

 50 

 Section 1102. Applicability of Article. 
  
 Redemption of Securities at the election of the Company, as permitted by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in
accordance with such provision and this Article. 
  
 Section 1103. Election to
Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
  
 The election of the Company to
redeem any Securities pursuant to Section 1101 shall be evidenced by a Authorizing Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date
fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. 
  
 Section 1104. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. 
  
 If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities (treating the Original Securities, the
Additional Securities and the Exchange Securities as a single series) to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities 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 $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of a denomination larger than $1,000.

  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and each
Security Registrar 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 principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
  
 Section 1105. Notice of Redemption. 
  
 Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. 
  
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
  
 (1) the Redemption Date, 
  
 (2) the Redemption Price, 
  
 (3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of
partial redemption of any Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed, 
  

 51 

 (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon
each such Security to be redeemed and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 
  
 (5) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 
  
 (6) that in the case that a Security is only redeemed in
part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities in an aggregate amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security, 
  
 (7) the aggregate principal amount of Securities being
redeemed, and 
  
 (8) the CUSIP number,
provided that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number or numbers listed in such notice or printed on the Securities being redeemed. 
  
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the
Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
  
 Section 1106. Deposit of Redemption Price. 
  
 On
or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay
the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 
  
 Section 1107. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
  
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become
due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of
any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of
interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to
their terms and the provisions of Section 307. 
  
 If any Security
called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security. 
  
 Section 1108. Securities Redeemed in Part. 
  

 52 

 Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the
Company designated for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security of the same tenor without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any
authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Global Security is so surrendered, such new Security shall
also be a Global Security. 
  
 ARTICLE TWELVE 
  
 Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance 
  
 Section 1201. Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

  
 The Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have
Section 1202 or Section 1203 applied to the Securities pursuant to such Section 1202 or 1203 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article. 
  
 Section 1202. Defeasance and Discharge. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise of its option to have this Section applied to the Securities, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from
its obligations, with respect to the Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1204 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to
have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of the Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1204 and as more fully
set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities when payments are due, (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003,
(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise its option to have this Section applied to the Securities notwithstanding the
prior exercise of its option to have Section 1203 applied to the Securities. 
  

 53 

 Section 1203. Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 Upon the Company’s exercise of its option to have this Section applied to the Securities, (1) the Company shall be
released from any term, provision or condition provided in pursuant to Article Eight and Sections 1006 and 1007, and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 901(2) for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and (2) the occurrence of any
event specified in Section 501(3) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1204 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such
Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in
the case of Section 501(3)) whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or Article or by reason of any reference in any such Section or Article to any other provision herein or in any other
document, but the remainder of this Indenture shall be unaffected thereby. 
  
 Section 1204. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the Securities: 
  
 (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of
making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of the Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) Government Securities which through the scheduled payment of principal and
interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient to pay and discharge, and which shall be
applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities on the Stated Maturity, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities.

  
 (2) In the event of an election to have
Section 1202 apply to the Securities, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date
of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Securities will not recognize gain or loss for
federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Securities and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the
case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur. 
  
 (3) In the event of an election to have Section 1203 apply to the Securities, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Securities will not recognize
gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to the 
  

 54 

 Securities and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur. 
  
 (4) No event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall
have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any such event specified in Sections 501(4) and 501(5), at any time on or prior to the 123rd day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 123rd day). 
  
 (5) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust
Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act). 
  
 (6) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other
agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 
  
 (7) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder. 
  
 (8) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the
intent of preferring the Holders of the Securities over the other creditors of the Company, or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defaulting creditors of the Company or others. 
  
 (9) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been
complied with. 
  
 Section 1205. Deposited Money and Government Securities to
Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. 
  
 Subject to the
provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Securities, of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the
Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 1204 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof. 
  

 55 

 Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company
from time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 1204 with respect to the Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a
written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to the Securities. 

 
 Section 1206. Reinstatement. 
  
 If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance
with this Article with respect to the Securities by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under this Indenture and the Securities
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to the Securities, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1205 with
respect to the Securities in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest an any Security following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company
shall be subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.
