 REVERSE OF NOTE 

EXELIS INC. 

5.550% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2021 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of the Company (herein called the
“Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of September 20, 2011 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company, ITT Corporation, as Guarantor (herein called
the “Guarantor”) and Union Bank, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Securities, the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered, and the definition of
capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may be denominated in different currencies, may mature
at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates (which rates may be fixed or variable), may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase, or analogous funds (if any), may be
subject to different covenants and Events of Default, and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture. This Note is one of a series of Securities of the Company designated as set forth on the face hereof (herein called the
“Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000. 
 Optional Redemption 

The Notes shall be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price
equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption)
discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. 

Except as otherwise provided herein, redemption of the Notes shall be made in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Indenture.

 “Treasury Rate” means the yield to maturity at the time of computation of United States Treasury securities
with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) which has become publicly available at least two business days prior to the date of redemption (or, if such Statistical
Release is no longer published, any publicly available source or similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from the date of redemption to the maturity date; provided, however, that if the period from the date of redemption to the
maturity date is not equal to the constant maturity of a United States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the Treasury Rate shall be obtained 

 
by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the
period from the date of redemption to the maturity date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used. 

Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event 
 If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs after the Distribution Date (as defined in the Indenture), unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described
above, the Company will be required to make an offer to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (equal to $2,000 or any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof), of each Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the
“Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in the Notes. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to, but not including, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). 
 Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may
constitute the Change of Control, a notice will be mailed to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the
notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control,
will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will be required, to the extent lawful, to: 
 (a)         accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

(b)        deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in
respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 
 (c)        deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

The Paying Agent will be required to promptly mail, to each Holder who properly tendered Notes, the purchase price for such Notes, and
the Trustee will be required to promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that
each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

 The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control
Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under
its offer. In the event that such third party terminates or defaults its offer, the Company will be required to make a Change of Control Offer treating the date of such termination or default as though it were the date of the Change of Control
Triggering Event. 
 In addition, the Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the
Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. 

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following after the Distribution Date: (1) the direct or
indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties or
assets and those of the Company’s subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons, other than to the Company or one of the Company’s subsidiaries; (2) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors
is not composed of Continuing Directors (as defined below); (3) the consummation of any transaction including, without limitation, any merger, amalgamation, arrangement or consolidation the result of which is that any person becomes the
beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s Voting Stock; (4) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any
such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company or of such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the
Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or
(5) the adoption of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution (other than the Company’s liquidation into a newly formed holding company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction described in clause (3)
above will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company (which will include a parent company) and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the
Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as, and hold in substantially the same proportions as, the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or
(B) immediately following that transaction no person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly of more than 50% of the then outstanding Voting Stock, measured by
voting power, of such holding company. Following any such transaction, references in this definition to the Company shall be deemed to refer to such holding company. For the purposes of this definition, “person” and “beneficial
owner” have the meanings used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. 

 “Change of Control Triggering Event” means the Notes cease to be rated
Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies on any date during the 60-day period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing upon the earlier of (1) the first public announcement of the Change of Control or the Company’s
intention to effect a Change of Control and (2) the consummation of such Change of Control, which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced
consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies. Unless at least one Rating Agency is providing a rating for the Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade
during that Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will all be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been
consummated. 
 “Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Board of
Directors who (1) was a member of the Board of Directors on the issue date of the Notes; or (2) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to the Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were
members of the Board of Directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval by such directors of the Company’s proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a
director). 
 “Fitch” means Fitch Inc., and its successors. 

“Investment Grade” means a rating equal to or higher than BBB- (or the equivalent) by Fitch, Baa3 (or the equivalent) by
Moody’s or BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company. 

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.

 “Rating Agencies” means (a) each of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P; and (b) if any of the Rating
Agencies ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act that is selected by the Company (as
certified by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer) as a replacement for Fitch, Moody’s or S&P, or all of them, as the case may be. 
 “S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors. 

“Voting Stock” of any specified person as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time
entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person. 

 Defeasance 
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire principal of all the Securities of any series upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein.

 Certain of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture with respect to the Notes may be terminated if the Company
irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations or Equivalent Government Securities sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Indenture. 
 Events of Default 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall
occur and be continuing, the principal amount hereof may be declared due and payable or may be otherwise accelerated in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 Payment 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note
or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

Amendments 
 The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series under the Indenture at any time by
the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected by such amendment or modification. The Indenture also
contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the
Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders
of this Note and of any Note issued upon 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 Note. 
 Transfer, Registration and Exchange 
 As provided in the Indenture and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registerable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment duly
endorsed, 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 duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of
authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

 No service charge shall be made for any such registration or 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 the presentment of this Note 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 Note is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, nor any
such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Other Terms 

The Indenture contains provisions setting forth certain conditions to the institution of proceedings by Holders of Securities with respect
to the Indenture or for any remedy under the Indenture. 
 The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different
authorized denominations as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 The Notes are not subject to a sinking fund.

 This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture and are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Indenture.

Upon any application or request by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company shall
furnish to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such

such particular application or request, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished. 
 Every certificate or opinion
with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than pursuant to Sections 2.3, 3.3 and 9.6) shall include: 
 (a) a statement that each individual signing such certificate or opinion has read such condition or covenant and the definitions herein relating thereto;

 Section 1.3 Form of Document 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 certificates or opinions 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 as 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 1.4 Acts of Holders 
 (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. 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 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 

  
 -11-

 
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 reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 

(c) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Register. 

(d) 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. 
 (e) If the Company shall solicit from
the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, fix in advance a record date for the
determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders
of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed to consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed
as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of clause (a) of this
Section 1.4 not later than six months after the record date. 
 Section 1.5 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, 
 (a) 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 Trustee Administration, or 

(b) 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 Itron, Inc., 2111 N. Molter Road, Liberty Lake, WA 99019, Attention: Chief Financial Officer or at any other address previously furnished in
writing to the Trustee by the Company. 

  
 -12-

 Section 1.6 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 or otherwise agreed to by a Holder) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Register, within the time 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. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder,
whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. 
 If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason
of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice as provided above, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

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 equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 1.7 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 1.8 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 1.9 Separability 
 In case any provision of this Indenture or 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 1.10 Benefits of Indenture 
 Nothing in this Indenture or in the
Securities, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

 Section 1.11 Governing Law 
 THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SAID STATE
WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS THEREOF. This Indenture is subject to the Trust Indenture Act and if any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with the Trust Indenture Act, the Trust Indenture Act shall control.

 Section 1.12 Legal Holidays 
 In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then
(notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture of any Security other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of principal, premium, if any,
or interest need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on such date; provided that no interest shall accrue on the
amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be. 
 Section 1.13 No Recourse Against Others 
 No director, officer, employee or
stockholder, as such, of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by
accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
 ARTICLE 2

(d) If any of the terms of the Securities of any series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of such

determining, the terms of the Securities of such series, and an appropriate record of any action taken pursuant thereto in connection with the issuance of any Securities of such series shall be delivered to the Trustee prior to the authentication
and delivery thereof. With respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, such Board Resolution or Officers’ Certificate may provide general terms for Securities of such series and provide either that the specific terms of
particular Securities of such series shall be specified in a Company Order or that such terms shall be determined by the Company, or one or more of the Company’s agents designated in an Officers’ Certificate, in accordance with the Company
Order as contemplated by the first proviso of the third paragraph of Section 3.3. 

  
 -17-

 Section 3.2 Denominations 
 The Securities of each series shall be issuable only in definitive registered form without coupons and in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. In the absence of
any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. 
 Section 3.3 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating 
 Securities
shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and attested to by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company. The signatures of such officers on the Securities may be manual or
facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities. 
 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, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and make
available for delivery such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities; provided, however, that in the case of Securities offered in a Periodic Offering, the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver such Securities from time to time in accordance with such other procedures (including, without limitation, the receipt by the Trustee of oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agents,
promptly confirmed in writing) acceptable to the Trustee as may be specified by or pursuant to a Company Order delivered to the Trustee prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series. 

If the form or terms of the Securities of a series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Officers’ Certificates as
permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to
section 315(a) through (d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, 
 (a) that the forms and terms of such Securities have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 

(b) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and
subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions; 

  
 -18-

 provided, however, that, with respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic
Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive such Opinion of Counsel only once at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series and that the Opinion of Counsel above may state: 

(x) that the forms of such Securities have been, and the terms of such Securities (when established in accordance with
such procedures as may be specified from time to time in a Company Order, all as contemplated by and in accordance with a Board Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to Section 3.1, as the case may be) will have been, established
in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (y) that such Securities, when (1) executed by
the Company, (2) completed, authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in accordance with this Indenture, and (3) issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid
and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions. 

With respect to Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the authorization by the
Company of any of such Securities, the form and terms thereof and the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof, upon the Opinion of Counsel and other documents delivered pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 3.1 of this Section, as
applicable, at or prior to the time of the first authentication of Securities of such series unless and until it has received written notification that such opinion or other documents have been superseded or revoked. In connection with the
authentication and delivery of Securities of a series subject to a Periodic Offering, the Trustee shall be entitled to assume that the Company’s instructions to authenticate and deliver such Securities do not violate any rules, regulations or
orders of any governmental agency or commission having jurisdiction over the Company. 
 If the form or terms of the Securities
of a series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Officers’ Certificates as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities
pursuant to this Indenture will adversely affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the two preceding paragraphs, if all of the Securities of any series are not to
be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1 at or prior to the time of the authentication of each Security of such series if the Officers’
Certificate is delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Security shall
be entitled to any benefits under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of one of the authorized signatories of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent. Such signature upon any Security
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Indenture and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

  
 -19-

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.9 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.2 and need
not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and
shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 3.4 Temporary Securities 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver temporary Securities of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor and form 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 conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause permanent Securities of such series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After preparation of such permanent Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such permanent Securities of like tenor upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the
Company pursuant to Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment for such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Permanent Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as permanent Securities of such series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. 
 Section 3.5 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange 
 The
Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or in any office or agency to be maintained by the Company in accordance with Section 9.2 in a Place of Payment a register (the “Register”) in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and the registration of transfers of Securities. The Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being
converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 9.2
in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations
and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. 

  
 -20-

 At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities
of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like aggregate principal amount containing identical terms and provisions, 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. 

Whenever any Securities are 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 upon any 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 such transfer or
exchange. 
 Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the
Company, the Registrar or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to those of the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee requiring such written instrument of transfer duly executed by
the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service change shall be made for any registration of
transfer or for any 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 or transfer or exchange of Securities, other
than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4 or 10.7 not involving any transfer. 
 The Company shall not be required (a) to
issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Securities for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection for redemption of Securities of like tenor and of the series of which such Security is a part and ending
at the close of business on the earliest date on which the relevant notice of redemption is deemed to have been given to all Holders of Securities of like tenor and of such series to be redeemed or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange of
any Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 

Section 3.6 Replacement Securities 
 If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, together with, in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a replacement Security of the same series and date of maturity, if the Trustee’s requirements are met. 

  
 -21-

 If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agency 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 replacement Security of the same series and
principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case
any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee connected therewith). 
 Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether
or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.7 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights
Preserved 
 Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, interest, if any, 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 at the office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 9.2; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, interest on any series of Securities that bear interest may be paid (a) by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it shall appear on the Register of Holders of Securities of such series or (b) to the extent specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, by wire transfer to an account maintained
by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Register of Holders of Securities of such series. 
 Unless otherwise
provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”)
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or
(ii) below: 

  
 -22-

 (i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the
Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following
manner. The Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the trustee for such deposit prior to the date
of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause (i) provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such
Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii). 
 (ii) The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a specified date in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to
this clause (ii), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions
of this Section and Section 3.5, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were
carried by such other Security. 
 Section 3.8 Persons Deemed Owners 

Prior to due presentment of any 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, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.7) 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 3.9 Cancellation 
 The Company at any time may deliver Securities to
the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and any Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for replacement, for registration of transfer, or for exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities
surrendered for replacement, for registration of transfer, or for exchange, payment, redemption or cancellation and may dispose of cancelled Securities in accordance with its procedures for the disposition of cancelled securities and issue a
certificate of disposition to the Company. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, except as expressly permitted in the terms of Securities for any particular
series or as permitted pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 

  
 -23-

 Section 3.10 Computation of Interest 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 (a) interest of any Securities that bear interest at a fixed rate
shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and (b) interest on any Securities the bear interest at a variable rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period divided by 360 or
the actual number of days in the year. 
 Section 3.11 CUSIP Numbers 

The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers (in addition to the other identification numbers printed on the Securities) in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness
of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by
any defect in or omission of such numbers. 
 ARTICLE 4 

Satisfaction, Discharge and Defeasance 
 Section 4.1 Termination of Company’s Obligations Under the Indenture 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.1, this Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect
with respect to Securities of or within any series (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of such Securities and replacement of such Securities which may have been lost, stolen or mutilated as herein expressly
provided for) and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such Securities when

 (i) all such Securities previously authenticated and delivered (other than (i) such Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in
Section 3.6, and (ii) such Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in
Section 9.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  
 -24-

 (ii) all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation 
 (1) have become due and payable, or 

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

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

and the Company, in the case of (1), (2) or (3) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as
trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal, premium, if any, and interest, with respect thereto,
to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 
 (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 
 (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligation of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.9, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.2 and the last paragraph of Section 9.3 shall survive. 
 Section 4.2 Application of Trust Funds 
 Subject to the provisions of the
last paragraph of Section 9.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly
or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal, premium, if any, and any interest for whose payment such money has been deposited
with or received by the Trustee, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 Section 4.3
Applicability of Defeasance Provisions; Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance 
 If pursuant to
Section 3.1 provision is made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under Section 4.4 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of

  
 -25-

 
or within a series under Section 4.5, then the provisions of such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the provisions of Sections 4.6 through 4.9 inclusive, with such
modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to any Securities, shall be applicable to such Securities, and the Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such Securities, elect
to have Section 4.4 (if applicable) or Section 4.5 (if applicable) be applied to such Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article. 
 Section 4.4 Defeasance and Discharge 
 Upon the Company’s exercise of
the option specified in Section 4.3 applicable to this Section with respect to the Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities on the date the
conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied (hereinafter “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by
such Securities which shall thereafter be deemed to be 
 “Outstanding” only for the purposes of
Section 4.7 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clause (b) of this Section, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the
Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall on Company Order execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of such
Securities to receive, solely from the trust funds described in Section 4.6(a) and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments
are due; (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.5, 3.6, 9.2 and 9.3 and with respect to the payment of additional amounts, if any, payable with respect to such Securities as specified pursuant
to Section 3.1(b)(16); (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder; and (d) this Article 4. Subject to compliance with this Article 4, the Company may exercise its option under this Section
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 4.5 with respect to such Securities. Following a defeasance, payment of such Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. 

Section 4.5 Covenant Defeasance 
 Upon the Company’s exercise of the option specified in Section 4.3 applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under Sections 7.1 and 9.4, and, if specified pursuant to Section 3.1, its obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 4.6 are satisfied
(hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences
of any thereof) in connection with Sections 7.1 and 9.4, or such other covenant, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to
such 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 Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein 

  
 -26-

 
to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply
shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.1(c) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 

Section 4.6 Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance 
 The following shall be the conditions to application of Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 to any Securities of or within a series:

purposes of such Sections also a “Trustee”) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the payments referred to in clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 4.6(a), specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely
to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, with instructions to the Trustee as to the application thereof, (i) money in an amount, or (ii) if Securities of such series are not subject to repayment at the option of Holders,

Section 4.6(a), money in an amount or (iii) a combination thereof in an amount, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on such Securities on the Maturity of such principal or installment of principal
or interest and (y) any mandatory sinking fund payments applicable to such Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. Before such a deposit the Company
may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date or dates in accordance with Article 10 which shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. 

(b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or Event
of Default under, this Indenture or result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 

(c) No Default or Event of Default under Section 5.1(e) or 5.1(f) with respect to such Securities shall have occurred
and be continuing during the period commencing on the date of such deposit and ending on the 91st day after such date (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

 (d) In the case of an election under Section 4.4, the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (ii) since the date of
execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had
not occurred. 
 (e) In the case of an election under Section 4.5, the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred. 
 (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance under Section 4.4 or the
covenant defeasance under Section 4.5 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit pursuant to subsection (a) above and the related exercise of the
Company’s option under Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 (as the case may be), registration is not required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Company, with respect to the trust funds representing such deposit or by
the trustee for such trust funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under said act have been effected. 

(g) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute terms,
conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith as contemplated by Section 3.1. 
 Section 4.7
Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
Section 9.3, all money and Government Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.1) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.6 in respect of any Securities of any
series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as
the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law.

more of the following actions as specified in a Company Request:

permitted by Standard No. 76 or the Commission, for transactions accounted for as extinguishment of debt under the circumstances described in paragraph 3.c of Standard No. 76 or any successor provision and (ii) verifying the
accuracy, after giving effect to such action or actions, of the computations which demonstrate that the amounts remaining to be earned on the Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.6(a) will be sufficient for
purposes of Section 4.6(a). 
 ARTICLE 5

 Section 5.1 Events of Default 

An “Event of Default” occurs with respect to the Securities of any series if (whatever the reason for such Event

Section 5.4 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim

on any Security of such series or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which pursuant to Section 8.2 cannot be amended or modified without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security of such series adversely
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. 
 Section 5.8 Control by Majority 
 The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series affected (with each such series voting as a class) 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 it with respect to Securities of that series; provided, however, that (a) the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, (b) the Trustee
may refuse to follow any direction that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series not consenting, or that would in the good-faith judgment of the Trustee have a substantial likelihood of involving the Trustee in
personal liability and (c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

 (e) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series has not given to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request. 
 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 of such Holders,
or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

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.

successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this
Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of
the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties

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

Federal, State Territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in
its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this
Article. 
 Section 6.13 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such

delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee
had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 6.14 Appointment of Authenticating Agent 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to
act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture
and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be
promptly furnished to the Company. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authenticating and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include

except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.1, shall at all times be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act 

  
 -41-

 
as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $10 million and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If such Authenticating
Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such
Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any corporation
into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided, such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of
any paper or further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating Agent for any series of
Securities may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written
notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which
such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth in Section 1.6. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation, including reimbursement of its
reasonable expenses for its services under this Section. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made
pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

 ARTICLE 9 
 Covenants 
 Section 9.1 Payment of Principal, Premium, if Any, and Interest

 The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities that it will duly and
punctually pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series and this Indenture. An installment of principal or interest shall be considered paid on the
date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent holds on that date money designated for and sufficient to pay the installment. 
 Section 9.2
Maintenance of Office or Agency 
 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office
or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain
any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints
the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from time
to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such 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 each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to
the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, the Trustee shall initially serve as Paying Agent. 

Section 9.3 Money for Securities to Be Held in Trust; Unclaimed Money 
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the
Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal, 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 in writing of its action or failure so to act. 

  
 -47-

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

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on Securities of that
series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 
 (b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the
Securities; and 
 (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the
Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 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, such sums to be held
by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect
to such money. 
 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the
payment of any principal, premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, 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,, or cause to be mailed to such Holder, 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 9.4 Corporate Existence 
 Subject to Article 7, the Company will at all times do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights and franchises;
provided that nothing in this Section 9.4 shall prevent the abandonment or termination of any right or franchise of the Company if, in the opinion of the Company, such abandonment or termination is in the best interests of the Company
and does not materially adversely affect the ability of the Company to operate its business or to fulfill its obligations hereunder.

Such reports, information and documents will be deemed to be filed, furnished or transmitted to the Trustee and Holders of the Securities
in compliance with this Section 9.5 on the date filed with the Commission. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute
constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on
Officers’ Certificates). 
 Section 9.6 Annual Review Certificate; Notice of Default 

The Company covenants and agrees to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, a brief

 Section 10.2 Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee 
 The election of the
Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or any Officers’ Certificate. In the case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities, if any, of any series, the
Company shall, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series
to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or
elsewhere in this Indenture or (b) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance
with such restriction or condition. 
 Section 10.3 Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed 

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, if less than all the Securities of a series with the same original issue
date, interest rate and Stated Maturity are to be redeemed, the Trustee, not more than 45 days prior to the redemption date, shall select the Securities of the series to be redeemed in such manner as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.
The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of the series that are Outstanding and that have not previously been called for redemption and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized
denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series. The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected by the Trustee for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

  
 -51-

 For 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 10.4 Notice of Redemption 
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.6 not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior

Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed; 

(d) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and
after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the holder will receive, without a charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed; 

(e) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for
payment for the Redemption Price; 
 (f) that Securities of the series called for redemption must be surrendered
to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date; 

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

(i) CUSIP number. 
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed 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 10.5 Deposit of Redemption Price

segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 9.3) an amount of money sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and (unless the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) interest accrued to the Redemption
Date on, all Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 

  
 -52-

 Unless any Security by its terms prohibits any sinking fund payment obligation from being
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities (including Securities redeemed otherwise than through a sinking fund), the Company may deliver such Securities to the Trustee for crediting against such payment obligation in accordance with the terms
of such Securities and this Indenture. 
 Section 10.6 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. Except as provided in the
next succeeding paragraph, 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, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is 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 3.7. 
 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
prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 10.7 Securities Redeemed in Part 

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

Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 
 Section 11.2 Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments
With Securities 
 The Company (a) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for
redemption) and (b) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments
pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the
terms of such series; provided that such Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through
operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 
 Section 11.3 Redemption of
Securities for Sinking Fund 
 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of
Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to Section 11.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not
less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 10.3 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to
be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 10.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 10.6
and 10.7.
