time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Securities of any Series having attached thereto appropriate Coupons, if any, executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall
thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the written order of the Issuer, signed by the chairman of the Board of Directors, the vice chairman, the president, any vice president, the treasurer, any assistant treasurer, the
secretary, any assistant secretary, any manager or any other authorized representative duly authorized to act for or on behalf of the Issuer without any further action by the Issuer. In authenticating such Securities and accepting the additional

(1) a certified copy of any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors authorizing the action taken pursuant to the

(2) an executed supplemental indenture, if any;

Sections 2.01 and 2.03, respectively, and prepared in accordance with Section 11.05;

conformity with such resolution or Officer Action; 
 (b) that such Securities and Coupons, if any, have been duly
authorized, and, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer enforceable in
accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles, regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; 
 (c) the registration statement, if any, relating to the
Securities of such Series and any amendments thereto has become effective under the Securities Act of 1933 and to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement, as amended, has been
issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened; and 

  
 13 

 (d) the authentication and delivery of the Securities of such Series by the
Trustee in accordance with the directions of the Issuer so to do, and the Issuer’s execution and delivery of the Securities of such Series, will not violate the terms of this Indenture; 

provided, however, that in the case of any Series issuable in Tranches, if the Trustee has previously received the documents referred to in
Section 2.04(1)-(5) with respect to such Series, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver securities of such Series executed and delivered by the Issuer for original issuance upon receipt by the Trustee of the applicable Issuer Notice. 

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities and Coupons, if any, under this Section if the Trustee,
being advised by counsel (such counsel being reasonably acceptable to the Issuer), determines that such action may not lawfully be taken by the Issuer or if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own
rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture in a manner not acceptable to the Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency if the
Trustee believes that it will be unable to perform its duties hereunder with respect to such Securities. 
 SECTION 2.05 Execution
of Securities. The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Issuer by the chairman of the Board of Directors, the vice chairman, the president, any vice president, the treasurer, any assistant treasurer, the secretary, any assistant
secretary, any manager or any other authorized representative duly authorized to act for or on behalf of the Issuer. Such signatures may be the manual or facsimile signature of the present or any future such officers. Typographical and other minor
errors or defects in any such reproduction of any such signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Any Coupons attached to any Unregistered Security shall
be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the manual or facsimile signature of any such officer or manager of the Issuer or any Person duly authorized to act for or on behalf of the Issuer. 

In case any officer or manager of the Issuer who shall have signed any of the Securities or Coupons shall cease to be such officer or manager
before the Security or Coupon so signed shall be authenticated (in the case of the Securities) and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuer, such Security or Coupon nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as
though the person who signed such Security or Coupon had not ceased to be such officer or manager of the Issuer; and any Security or Coupon may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such
Security or Coupon, shall be the proper officers or managers of the Issuer, although at the date of the execution and delivery of this Indenture any such person was not such an officer or manager. 

SECTION 2.06 Certificate of Authentication. Only such Securities as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form hereinbefore recited, executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, shall be entitled to the benefits of this indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the
Trustee upon any Security executed by the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

  
 14

appertaining thereto have been detached and canceled, except as otherwise provided or permitted by this Indenture.

The Securities shall be numbered, lettered, or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plan as the officers or
managers of the Issuer executing the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof. 

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, shall bear interest from the date and shall be payable on the dates, in each
case, which shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.03. 
 Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any interest payment date shall be paid, in the case of Registered Securities, 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 the payment of such interest and, in the case of Unregistered Securities, upon surrender of the Coupon appertaining thereto in respect of the interest due on such interest payment date. 

The term “record date” as used with respect to any interest payment date (except for a date for payment of defaulted interest) shall
mean the date specified as such in the terms of the Securities of any particular Series, or, if no such date is so specified, if such interest payment date is the first day of a calendar month, the close of business on the fifteenth day of the next
preceding calendar month or, if such interest payment date is the fifteenth day of a calendar month, the close of business on the first day of such calendar month, whether or not such record date is a Business Day. 

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
(called “defaulted interest” for purposes of this Section) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder on the relevant record date by virtue of his having been such Holder; and such defaulted interest may be paid by the
Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below: 
 (1) The Issuer may elect to make payment of
any defaulted interest to the persons in whose names any such Registered 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 Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such Series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer 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 

  
 15 

 
deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the persons entitled to such defaulted interest as in this clause provided.
Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest in respect of Registered Securities of such Series which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and
not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall cause notice of the
proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the special record date thereof to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Registered 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 such defaulted interest and the special record date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such defaulted interest in respect of Registered Securities of such Series shall be paid to the person in
whose names such Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and such defaulted interest shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 

(2) The Issuer may make payment of any defaulted interest on the Registered Securities of any Series in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of that Series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment
pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Any defaulted interest payable in respect of any
Security of any Series which is not a Registered Security shall be payable pursuant to such procedures as may be satisfactory to the Trustee in such manner that there is no discrimination as between the Holders of Registered Securities and other
Securities of the same Series, and notice of the payment date therefor shall be given by the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, by publication at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in New York, New York and London,
England. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon 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 2.08 Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer will keep at each office or agency to be maintained for the
purpose as provided in Section 3.02 a register or registers in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it will register, and will register the transfer of, Registered Securities as in this Article Two provided. Such
register shall be in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times such register or registers shall be open for inspection by the Trustee. 

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any Series at any such office or agency to be maintained for
the purpose as provided in Section 3.02, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Registered Security or Registered Securities of the same Series and containing
the same terms (other than the principal amount thereof, if more than one

Registered Security is executed, authenticated and delivered with respect to any Registered Security so presented, in which case the aggregate principal amount of the executed, authenticated and
delivered Registered Securities shall equal the principal amount of the Registered Security presented in respect thereof). 
 At the option
of the Holder thereof, Unregistered Securities of a Series, which by their terms are registerable as to principal and interest, may, to the extent and under the circumstances specified pursuant to Section 2.03, be exchanged for Registered
Securities of such Series containing the same terms (other than the principal amount thereof, if an Unregistered Security is exchanged for more than one Registered Security, in which case the aggregate principal amount of such Registered Securities
shall equal the principal amount of the Unregistered Security exchanged therefor), as may be issued by the terms thereof. At the option of the Holder thereof, Registered Securities of a Series, which by their terms provide for the issuance of
Unregistered Securities, may, to the extent and under the circumstances specified pursuant to Section 2.03, be exchanged for Unregistered Securities of such Series containing the same terms (other than the principal amount thereof, if a
Registered Security is exchanged for more than one Unregistered Security, in which case the aggregate principal amount of such Unregistered Securities shall equal the principal amount of the Registered Security exchanged therefor). Securities so
issued in exchange for other Securities shall be of any authorized denomination and of like principal amount (subject to the parentheticals in the two immediately preceding sentences) and maturity date, interest rate or method of determining
interest, and like other terms and shall be issued upon surrender of the Securities for which they are to be exchanged and, in the case of Coupon Securities, together with all unmatured Coupons and matured Coupons in default appertaining thereto, at
the office or agency of the Issuer provided for in Section 3.02 and upon payment, if the Issuer shall require, of charges provided therein. Unregistered Securities of any Series issued in exchange for Registered Securities of such Series
between the regular record date for such Registered Security and the next interest payment date will be issued without the Coupon relating to such interest payment date, and Unregistered Securities surrendered in exchange for Registered Securities
between such dates shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such interest payment date. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities
which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Unregistered Security will not be delivered in exchange for a Registered Security or Securities unless the Trustee receives a certificate signed by the
person entitled to delivery of such Security or other items or documents fulfilling such conditions as shall be required by regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, or shall be notified by the Issuer that such a certificate shall
not be required by such regulations; provided, however, that no such Unregistered Security shall be delivered by the Trustee if the Trustee or such agent shall have, or shall have been notified in writing by the Issuer that the Issuer has, actual
knowledge that such certificate is false. 
 Upon presentation for registration of any Unregistered Securities of any Series which by its
terms is registrable as to principal, at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02. such Security shall be registered as to principal in the name of the Holder thereof and such registration shall be noted
on such Security. Any Security so registered shall be transferable on the registry books of the Issuer upon presentation of such Security at such office or agency for similar notation thereon. 

  
 17 

 Unregistered Securities shall be transferable by delivery, except while registered as to
principal. Registration of any Coupon Security shall not affect the transferability by delivery of the Coupons appertaining thereto which shall continue to be payable to bearer and transferable by delivery. 

All Securities and Coupons issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer and Parent,
evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities and Coupons surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Trustee) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee 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 Issuer may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 8.05 or 12.03 not involving any transfer. 

The Issuer 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 selection of Securities for redemption under Article Twelve and ending at the close of business on (a) if Securities of such Series are issuable only as Registered Securities, the day of mailing of the
relevant notice of redemption, (b) if Securities of such Series are issuable only as Unregistered Securities, the day of the first publication of the relevant notice of redemption or (c) if Securities of such Series are issuable as
Registered Securities and Unregistered Securities, the date of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or otherwise the date of such publication or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in
whole or in part, except, in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not redeemed. 
 SECTION 2.09
Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. In case any temporary or definitive Security or Coupon shall become mutilated, defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer in its discretion may execute, and upon the
written request of any officer or manager of the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security or Coupon Security of the same Series, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the
mutilated or defaced Security or Coupon (and the relevant Coupon Security), or in lieu of and substitution for the Security or Coupon (and the relevant Coupon Security) so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substitute
Security or Coupon Security shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee and to any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them harmless and, in every
case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security or Coupon and of the ownership thereof. 

  
 18 

 Upon the issuance of any substitute Security (including any Coupon Security), the Issuer may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. In case any Security or Coupon
which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in full shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, instead of issuing a substitute Security, pay or authorize the payment of the same
(without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Security or Coupon); provided, however, that interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Coupons at an office or agency of the
Issuer located outside of the United States of America, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03, if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee such
security or indemnity as any of them may require to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer and the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security or Coupon and of the ownership thereof. 
 Every substitute Security
of any Series issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section by virtue of the fact that any Security or Coupon is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer and Parent, whether or not the
destroyed, lost or stolen Security or Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations of rights set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any and all other Securities of such Series or Coupons duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Securities or Coupons shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted by the law, the foregoing provisions are
exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to
the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 

SECTION 2.10 Cancellation of Securities, Destruction Thereof. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption,
registration of transfer or exchange, or for credit against any payment in respect of a sinking or analogous fund and all Coupons surrendered for payment or exchange, shall, if surrendered to the Issuer, Parent or any agent of the Issuer, Parent or
the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be cancelled by it; and no Securities or Coupons shall be issued in lieu thereof, except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this
Indenture. The Trustee shall destroy cancelled Securities and Coupons held by it and deliver a certificate of destruction to the Issuer. If the Issuer or Parent shall acquire any of the Securities and Coupons, such acquisition shall not operate as a
redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities and Coupons unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

SECTION 2.11 Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities for any Series, the Issuer may execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Securities for such Series (printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise reproduced, in each case in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee). Temporary Securities of any Series 

  
 19 

 
may be issued as Registered Securities or Unregistered Securities with or without Coupons attached thereto, of any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive
Securities of such Series but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Issuer with the concurrence of the Trustee. Temporary Securities may contain such reference
to any provisions of this Indenture as may be appropriate. Every Temporary Security shall be executed by the Issuer and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the
definitive Securities. Without unreasonable delay the Issuer shall execute and shall furnish definitive Securities of such Series and thereupon temporary Securities of such Series may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge at each office
or agency to be maintained by the Issuer for that purpose pursuant to Section 3.02, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities of such Series a like aggregate principal amount of definitive
Securities of the same Series of authorized denominations and, in the case of Unregistered Securities, having attached thereto any appropriate Coupons. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any Series shall be entitled to the same benefits
under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such Series. 
 SECTION 2.12 Currency and Manner of Payments in Respect of
Securities. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, this Section 2.12 shall apply to Securities issued hereunder. 

(a) With respect to Registered Securities of any Series in Dollars or a Foreign Currency and with respect to Registered Securities denominated
in ECU with respect to which the Holders of such Securities have not made the election provided for in paragraph (b) below, the following payment provisions shall apply: 

(1) Except as provided in subparagraph (a)(2) or in paragraph (e) below, payment of the principal of any Registered
Security will be made at the Place of Payment by delivery of a check in the currency in which the Security is payable on the payment date against surrender of such Registered Security, and any interest on any Registered Security will be paid at the
Place of Payment by mailing a check in the currency in which the Securities are payable to the Person entitled thereto at the address of such Person appearing on the Security register. 

(2) Payment of the principal of and interest on such Security may also, subject to applicable laws and regulations, be made at
such other place or places as may be designated by the Issuer by any appropriate method. 
 (b) With respect to Registered Securities of any
Series denominated in ECU, the following payment provisions shall apply, except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (e) and (f) below: 

(1) An Officer Action or a resolution of the Board of Directors may provide with respect to any Series of such Securities that
Holders shall have the option to receive payments of principal of and interest on such Security in any of the currencies which may be designated for such election in such Security by delivering to the Trustee a written election, to be in form and
substance 

  
 20 

 
satisfactory to the Trustee, not later than the close of business on the record date immediately preceding the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect for such Holder until
changed by the Holder by written notice to the Trustee (but any such change must be made not later than the close of business on the record date immediately preceding the next payment date to be effective for the payment to be made on such payment
date and no such change may be made with respect to payments to be made on any Security with respect to which notice of redemption has been given by the Issuer pursuant to Article Twelve). Any Holder of any such Security who shall not have delivered
any such election to the Trustee not later than the close of business on the applicable record date will be paid the amount due on the applicable payment date in ECU as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12. Payment of principal
shall be made on the payment date against surrender of such Securities. Payment of interest shall be made at the Place of Payment by mailing a check in the applicable currency to the Person entitled thereto at the address of such Person appearing on
the Security register. 
 (2) Payment of the principal of and interest on such Security may also, subject to applicable laws
and regulations, be made at such other place or places as may be designated by the Issuer by any appropriate method. 
 (c) Payment of the
principal of any Unregistered Security and of interest on any Coupon Security will be made at such place or places outside the United States as may be designated by the Issuer by any appropriate method only in the currency or currency unit in which
the Security is payable (except as provided in paragraph (e) below) on the payment date against surrender of the Unregistered Security, in the case of payment of principal, or the relevant Coupon, in the case of payment of interest. Except as
provided in paragraph (e) below, payment with respect to Unregistered Securities and Coupons will be made by check, subject to any limitations on the methods of effecting such payment as shall be specified in the terms of the Security
established as provided in Section 2.03 and as shall be required under applicable laws and regulations. Payment of the principal of and interest on Unregistered Securities may also, subject to applicable laws and regulations, be made at such
other place or places as may be designated by the Issuer by any appropriate method. 
 (d) Not later than the fourth Business Day after the
record date for each payment date, the Trustee will deliver to the Issuer a written notice specifying, in the currency in which each Series of the Securities are denominated, the respective aggregate amounts of principal of and interest on the
Securities to be made on such payment date, specifying the amounts so payable in respect of the Registered and the Unregistered Securities and in respect of the Registered Securities as to which the Holders of Securities denominated in ECU shall
have elected to be paid in another currency as provided in paragraph (b) above. If an Officer Action or a resolution of the Board of Directors has provided for the election referred to in paragraph (b) above and if at least one Holder has
made such election, then not later than the eighth Business Day following each record date the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee an Exchange Rate Officer’s Certificate in respect of the Dollar or Foreign Currency payments to be made on such
payment date. The Dollar or Foreign Currency amount receivable by Holders of Registered Securities denominated in ECU who have elected payment in such currency as provided in paragraph (b) above shall be determined by the Issuer on the basis of
applicable Official ECU Exchange Rate set forth in the applicable Exchange Rate Officer’s Certificate. 

  
 21 

 (e) If the Foreign Currency in which any of the Securities are denominated ceases to be used both
by the government of the country which issued such currency and for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, or if the ECU ceases to be used both within the European Monetary System and
for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the European Communities, then with respect to each date for the payment of principal of and interest on the applicable Foreign Currency or ECU denominated Securities occurring
after the last date on which the Foreign Currency or ECU was so used (the “Conversion Date”), the Dollar shall be the currency of payment for use on each such payment date. The Dollar amount to be paid by the Issuer to the Trustee and by
the Trustee or any Paying Agent to the Holders of such Securities with respect to such payment date shall be the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency or, in the case of ECU, the Dollar Equivalent of the ECU as determined by the Currency
Determination Agent as of the record date (the “Valuation Date”) in the manner provided in paragraphs (g) or (h) below. 
 (f)
If the Holder of a Registered Security denominated in ECU elects payment in a specified Foreign Currency as provided for by paragraph (b) and such Foreign Currency ceases to be used both by the government of the country which issued such
currency and for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, such Holder shall receive payment in ECU, and if ECU ceases to be used both within the European Monetary System and for the
settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the European Communities, such Holder shall receive payment in Dollars. 
 (g)
The “Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency” shall be determined by the Currency Determination Agent as of each Valuation Date and shall be obtained by converting the specified Foreign Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate
on the Valuation Date. 
 (h) The “Dollar Equivalent of the ECU” shall be determined by the Currency Determination Agent as of each
Valuation Date and shall be the sum obtained by adding together the results obtained by converting the Specified Amount of each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate on the Valuation Date for such Component Currency. 

(i) For purposes of this Section 2.12 the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

A “Component Currency” shall mean any currency which, on the Conversion Date, was a component currency of the ECU. 

A “Specified Amount” of a Component Currency shall mean the number of units or fractions thereof which such Component Currency
represented in the ECU on the Conversion Date. If after the Conversion Date the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied
in the same proportion. If after the Conversion Date two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the respective Specified Amounts 

  
 22 

 
of such Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single currency equal to the sum of the respective Specified Amounts of such consolidated Component Currencies expressed in
such single currency, and such amount shall thereafter be a Specified Amount and such single currency shall thereafter be a Component Currency. If after the Conversion Date any Component Currency shall be divided into two or more currencies, the
Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be replaced by specified amounts of such two or more currencies, the sum of which, at the Market Exchange Rate of such two or more currencies on the date of such replacement, shall be equal to the
Specified Amount of such former Component Currency divided by the number of currencies into which such Component Currency was divided, and such amounts shall thereafter be Specified Amounts and such currencies shall thereafter be Component
Currencies. 
 “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean for any currency the noon Dollar buying rate for that currency for cable
transfers quoted in New York City on the Valuation Date as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. If such rates are not available for any reason with respect to one or more currencies for which an Exchange Rate is
required, the Currency Determination Agent shall use, in its sole discretion and without liability on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of the most recent available date, or quotations from one or more major banks
in New York City or in the country of issue of the currency in question, or such other quotations as the Currency Determination Agent shall deem appropriate. Unless otherwise specified by the Currency Determination Agent, if there is more than one
market for dealing in any currency by reason of foreign exchange regulations or otherwise, the market to be used in respect of such currency shall be that upon which a nonresident issuer of securities designated in such currency would purchase such
currency in order to make payments in respect of such securities. 
 All decisions and determinations of the Currency Determination Agent
regarding the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of the ECU and the Market Exchange Rate shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably
binding upon the Issuer and all Holders of the Securities. In the event that the Foreign Currency ceases to be used both by the government of the country which issued such currency and for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or
within the international banking community, the Issuer, after learning thereof, will promptly give notice thereof to the Trustee (and the Trustee will promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided in Section 11.04 to the Holders)
specifying the Conversion Date. In the event the ECU ceases to be used both within the European Monetary System and for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the European Communities, the Issuer, after learning thereof,
will promptly give notice thereof to the Trustee (and the Trustee will promptly thereafter give notice in the manner provided in Section 11.04 to the Holders) specifying the Conversion Date and the Specified Amount of each Component Currency on
the Conversion Date. In the event of any subsequent change in any Component Currency as set forth in the definition of Specified Amount above, the Issuer, after learning thereof, will similarly give notice to the Trustee. 

The Trustee shall be fully justified and protected in relying on and acting upon the information so received by it from the Issuer and the
Currency Determination Agent and shall not otherwise have any duty or obligation to determine such information independently. 

  
 23 

 SECTION 2.13 Compliance with Certain Laws and Regulations. If any Unregistered
Securities or Coupon Securities are to be issued in any Series of Securities, the Issuer will use reasonable efforts to provide for arrangements and procedures designed pursuant to then applicable laws and regulations, if any, to ensure that
Unregistered Securities or Coupon Securities are sold or resold, exchanged, transferred and paid only in compliance with such laws and regulations and without adverse consequences to the Issuer. 

SECTION 2.14 Securities Issuable in the Form of a Depository Security (a) . (a) If the Issuer shall establish pursuant to
Section 2.03 that the Securities of a particular Series are to be issued as a Depository Security, then the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.04 and the order delivered to the Trustee thereunder,
authenticate and deliver, a Depository Security which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, all of the Outstanding Securities of such Series, (ii) shall be registered in the
name of the Depository or its nominee, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE
PROVIDED IN SECTION 2.14 OF THE INDENTURE, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO
A SUCCESSOR OF THE DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR.” 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 2.14 or of Section 2.08, the Depository Security of a Series may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 2.08, only to another nominee of the Depository for such Series, or to a successor
Depository for such Series selected or approved by the Issuer or to a nominee of such successor Depository. 
 (c) If at any
time the Depository for a Series of Securities notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Series or if at any time the Depository for such Series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute or regulation and a successor Depository for such Series is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition,
as the case may be, this Section shall no longer be applicable to the Securities of such Series and the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver, securities of such Series in definitive registered form without coupons, in
authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Depository Security of such Series then Outstanding in exchange for the Depository Security. In addition, the Issuer may at any time determine that
the Securities of any Series shall no longer be represented by a Depository Security and that the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall no longer apply to the Securities of such series. In such event the Issuer will execute and the Trustee,
upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate evidencing such determination by the Issuer, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such Series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Depository Security of such Series in exchange for such Depository Security. Upon the exchange of the Depository Security for such 

  
 24 

 
Securities in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, the Depository Security shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Such Securities in definitive registered form
issued in exchange for the Depository Security pursuant to this Section 2.14(c) shall be registered in such name and in such authorized denominations as the Depository pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or
otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE THREE. 

Covenants of the Issuer and Parent 

SECTION 3.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of each Series of
Securities that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid (in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series and Coupons, if any, are payable, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03 for the
Securities of such Series and except as provided in Section 2.12(b), (e) and (f) hereof) the principal of, and interest on, each of the Securities of such Series in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such Series, any Coupons
appertaining thereto and this Indenture. 
 The interest on Unregistered Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of
the several Coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature at the office of a Paying Agent outside the United States. The interest on any temporary Unregistered Security shall be paid, as to any installment
of interest evidenced by a Coupon attached thereto, if any, only upon presentation and surrender of such Coupon, and, as to the other installments of interest, if any, only upon presentation of such Securities for notation thereon of the payment of
such interest. 
 SECTION 3.02 Offices for Payment, etc. So long as any of the Registered Securities remain outstanding,
the Issuer will maintain the following for each Series: an office or agency (a) where the Securities may be presented for payment, (b) where the Securities may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange as in this Indenture
provided and (c) where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Securities or of this Indenture may be served. So long as any of the Registered Securities remain outstanding, Parent will maintain an office or agency where
notices and demands to or upon Parent in respect of the Securities or of this Indenture may be served. The Issuer or Parent, as the case may be, will give to the Trustee written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change
of location thereof. In case the Issuer or Parent, as the case may be, shall fail to so designate or maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof, presentations and
demands may be made and notices may be served at the Corporate Trust Office. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, the Trustee is appointed Paying Agent and Security registrar. 

So long as any Coupon Securities or Unregistered Securities of any Series remain outstanding, the Issuer or Parent will (except as specified
pursuant to Section 2.03) maintain one or more offices or agencies outside the United States in such city or cities as may be specified elsewhere in this Indenture or as contemplated by Section 2.03, and shall maintain such office or
offices for a period of two years (or any period thereafter for which it is necessary in order to 

  
 25 

 
conform to United States tax laws or regulations) after the principal on such Coupon Securities or Unregistered Securities has become due and payable, with respect to such Series where Coupons
appertaining to Securities of such Series or Unregistered Securities of such Series may be surrendered or presented for payment, or surrendered for exchange pursuant to Section 2.08 and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer and Parent
in respect of Coupons appertaining to Securities of such Series or the Unregistered Securities of such Series or of this Indenture may be served. The Issuer or Parent 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 Issuer or Parent shall fail to maintain such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, presentations, surrenders, notices and demands in
respect of Unregistered Securities may be made or served at an office of the Trustee or its agent located outside the United States of America as specified pursuant to Section 2.03; and the Issuer and Parent hereby appoints the Trustee and any
authenticating agent appointed hereunder their agents to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

SECTION 3.03 Appointment to Fill a Vacancy in Office of Trustee. The Issuer, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy
in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 6.10, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee with respect to each Series of Securities hereunder. 

SECTION 3.04 Paying Agents. Whenever the Issuer shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any Series, it will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, 

(a) that it will hold all sums received by it as such Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series or
Coupons (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer or by any other obligor on the Securities of such Series or Coupons) in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such Series or Coupons or of the Trustee, and upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and upon the written request of the Trustee, pay over all such sums received by it to the Trustee, 
 (b)
that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Issuer (or by any other obligor on the Securities of such Series) to make any payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series or Coupons when the same shall be due
and payable, and 
 (c) that it will give the Trustee notice of any change of address of any Holder of which it is aware. 

The Issuer will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series or Coupons, deposit with the
Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest so becoming due, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action. 

If the Issuer shall act as its own Paying Agent with respect to the Securities of any Series or Coupons, it will, on or before each due date
of the principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series or Coupons, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such Series or Holders of such Coupons a sum sufficient to pay such principal or
interest so becoming due. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action. 

  
 26 

 Anything in this section to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer may at any time, for the
purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge with respect to one or more or all Series of Securities or Coupons hereunder, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust for any such Series by the Issuer
or any Paying Agent hereunder, as required by this Section, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained. Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this
Section is subject to the provisions of Sections 10.03 and 10.04. 
 SECTION 3.05 Written Statement to Trustee. Each of
the Issuer and Parent will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer and Parent ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers
thereof the Issuer and Parent is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of Article IX and Sections 3.06 to 3.10 inclusive, and, if the Issuer or Parent shall be in default, specifying all such
defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they have knowledge. 
 SECTION 3.06 Corporate Existence. Subject to
Article Nine, each of the Issuer and Parent will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and affect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Issuer or
Parent shall not be required to preserve or cause to be preserved any such right or franchise if the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer
or Parent and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 SECTION 3.07 Maintenance of
Principal Properties. The Parent will cause all Principal Properties to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs,
renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Parent may be necessary so that the business carried an in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section shall prevent or restrict the Parent from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of, or sale, abandonment or other disposition of, or other action with regard to, any of such properties if any such action is, in the
judgment of the Parent, desirable in the conduct of the business of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as a whole. 
 SECTION 3.08

imposed upon the Issuer or Parent or upon the income, profits or property of the Issuer or Parent, and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a mortgage upon the property of the Issuer or

appropriate proceedings.

 SECTION 3.09 Limitation upon Liens. The Parent will not itself, and will not
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed
being hereinafter in this Section and Section 3.10 called “Debt”), secured by pledge of, or mortgage or other lien (including lease purchase, instalment purchase and other title retention financing arrangements) on or in respect of
any Principal Property owned or leased by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, or on any shares of stock or Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary (such pledges, mortgages and other liens being hereinafter in this Section and in Section 3.10
called “Liens”), without effectively providing that the Securities and Guarantee (together with, if the Parent shall so determine, any other Debt of the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not
subordinate to the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured Debt (for the purpose of providing such equal and ratable security, the principal amount of any Securities which are Original Issue Discount
Securities shall mean and shall not be less than that principal amount which could be declared to be due and payable pursuant to Section 5.01 on the date of the making of such effective provision, and the extent of such equal and ratable
security shall be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, as and when said principal amount changes over time pursuant to Section 5.01 and any other provision hereof), so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured, unless, after giving
effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all such secured Debt then outstanding plus all Attributable Debt of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of sale and leaseback transactions (as defined in Section 3.10) entered
into after the date of this Indenture (other than sale and leaseback transactions permitted by Section 3.10(b)) would not exceed an amount equal to 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; provided, however, that nothing contained in this
Section shall prevent, restrict or apply to, and there shall be excluded from secured Debt in any computation under this Section, Debt secured by: 

(a) Liens existing as of the date of this Indenture on any property or assets owned or leased by the Parent or any Restricted
Subsidiary; 
 (b) Liens on property or assets of, or on any shares of stock or Debt of, any Person existing at the time such
Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (c) Liens on any property or assets or shares of stock or Debt existing at the
time of acquisition thereof (including acquisition through merger or consolidation) or to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price or construction cost thereof or to secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the time of or within 120
days after the later of acquisition of such property or assets or shares of stock or Debt or the completion of any such construction and the commencement of operation of such property, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase
price or construction cost thereof; 

  
 28 

 (d) Liens on any property or assets to secure all or any part of the cost of
development, operation, construction, alteration, repair or improvement of all or any part of such property or assets, or to secure Debt incurred prior to, at the time of or within 120 days after the completion of such development, operation,
construction, alteration, repair or improvement, whichever is later , for the purpose of financing all or any part of such cost (provided such Liens are limited to such property or assets, improvements thereon and the land upon which such property,
assets and improvements are located and any other property or assets not then constituting a Principal Property); 
 (e)
Liens in favor of, or which secure Debt owing to, the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (f) Liens arising from the

or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute, or pursuant to the provisions of any contract not directly or indirectly in connection with securing Debt; 

(g) any deposit or pledge as security for the performance of any bid, tender, contract, lease or undertaking not directly or
indirectly in connection with the securing of Debt; any deposit or pledge with any governmental agency required or permitted to qualify the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to conduct business, to maintain self-insurance or to obtain the benefits
of any law pertaining to workmen’s compensation, unemployment insurance, old age pensions, social security or similar matters, or to obtain any stay or discharge in any legal or administrative proceedings; deposits or pledges to obtain the
release of mechanics’, workmen’s, repairmen’s, materialmen’s or warehousemen’s liens or the release of property in the possession of a common carrier; any security interest created in connection with the sale, discount or
guarantee of notes, chattel mortgages, leases, accounts receivable, trade acceptances or other paper, or contingent repurchase obligations, arising out of sales of merchandise in the ordinary course of business; liens permitted by Section 3.08;
or other deposits or pledges similar to those referred to in this subparagraph (g); 
 (h) Liens arising by reason of any
judgment, decree or order of any court or other governmental authority, so long as any appropriate legal proceedings which may have been initiated for review of such judgment, decree or order shall not have been finally terminated or so long as the
period within which such proceedings may be initiated shall not have expired; 
 (i) Liens created after the date of this
Indenture on property leased to or purchased by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary after that date and securing, directly or indirectly, obligations issued by a State, a Territory or a possession of the United States of America, or any

of the recipient pursuant to Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor to such provision) as in effect at the time of the issuance of such obligations; and 

  
 29 

 (j) any extension, renewal, substitution or replacement (or successive
extensions, renewals, substitutions or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Lien referred to in subparagraphs (a) through (i) above or the Debt secured thereby; provided that (1) such extension, renewal, substitution or replacement
Lien shall be limited to all or any part of the same property or assets, shares of stock or Debt that secured the Lien extended, renewed, substituted or replaced (plus improvements on such property and any other property or assets not then
constituting a Principal Property) and (2) to the extent, if any, that the Debt secured by such Lien at such time is increased, the amount of such increase shall not be excluded from secured Debt under any computation under this Section. 

Debt created by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be cumulated with a guarantee of the same Debt by the Parent or any other
Restricted Subsidiary for the same financial obligation. 
 SECTION 3.10 Limitation upon Sales and Leasebacks. The Parent
will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement after the date of this Indenture with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (not including the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary)
providing for the leasing by the Parent or any such Restricted Subsidiary for a period, including renewals, in excess of three years of any Principal Property which was or is owned or leased by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary which has been
or is to be sold or transferred, more than 120 days after such property has been owned by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary and completion of construction and commencement of full operation thereof, to such lender or investor or to any Person
to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property (herein referred to as a “sale and leaseback transaction”) unless either: 

(a) The Attributable Debt of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of such sale and leaseback transaction and
all other sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of this Indenture (other than sale and leaseback transactions permitted by Section 3.10(b)), plus the aggregate principal amount of Debt secured by Liens on Principal
Properties then outstanding (excluding any such Debt secured by Liens covered in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of the first paragraph of Section 3.09) without equally and ratably securing the Securities, would not exceed 10% of
Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, or 
 (b) The Parent, within 120 days after the sale or transfer, applies an amount equal
to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Property sold and leased back pursuant to such arrangement or the fair market value of the Principal Property so sold and leased back at the time of entering into such
arrangement (as determined by any of the following: the Chairman or any Vice Chairman of the Board, the President, any Vice President, the Treasurer and the Controller of the Parent) to the retirement of Funded Debt (including Securities of any
Series constituting Funded Debt) of the Parent (and any redemption of Securities of any Series pursuant to this provision 

  
 30 

 
shall, if provided in the terms of such particular Series of Securities, not be deemed to constitute a refunding operation or anticipated refunding operation pursuant to any redemption provision
of such series otherwise prohibiting redemption when such would constitute a refunding operation or anticipated refunding operation); provided, that the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Parent pursuant to this
subparagraph (b) shall be reduced by (i) the principal amount of any Securities (the principal amount of any Securities which are Original Issue Discount Securities shall mean and shall not be less than that principal amount which could
then be declared to be due and payable pursuant to Section 5.01) delivered within 120 days after such sale or transfer to the Trustee for redemption and cancellation, and (ii) the principal amount of Funded Debt (similarly determined with
respect to Funded Debt that would constitute an Original Issue Discount Security within the meaning of this Indenture), other than Securities, voluntarily retired by the Issuer within 120 days after such sale, whether or not any such retirement of
Funded Debt covered by subclause (i) or (ii) above shall be specified as being made pursuant to this subparagraph (b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no retirement referred to in this subparagraph (b) may be effected by payment at maturity
or pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund payment or any mandatory prepayment provision. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the Parent
or any Restricted Subsidiary is the lessee in any sale and leaseback transaction, Attributable Debt shall not include any Debt resulting from the guarantee by the Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the lessee’s obligation thereunder.

 SECTION 3.11 Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Issuer and Parent may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 3.06 to 3.10, inclusive, with respect to the Securities of any Series if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such Series shall either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent
so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

ARTICLE FOUR. 

Securityholders’ Lists and Reports by the Issuer, Parent and the Trustee 

SECTION 4.01 Issuer to Furnish Trustee Information as to Names and Addresses of Securityholders. The Issuer covenants and
agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Registered Securities of each Series: 

(a) semiannually and not more than 15 days after each record date for the payment of interest on such Securities, as
hereinabove specified, as of such record date and on dates to be determined pursuant to Section 2.03 for noninterest bearing securities in each year, and 

  
 31 

 (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days
after receipt by the Issuer of any such request such list to be as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such information is furnished, 

provided that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Security registrar for such Series, such list shall not be required to be furnished but in any event
the Issuer shall be required to furnish such information concerning the Holders of Coupon Securities and Unregistered Securities which is known to it; provided, further, that the Issuer shall have no obligation to investigate any matter relating to
any Holder of an Unregistered Security or any Holder of a Coupon. 
 SECTION 4.02 Preservation and Disclosure of
Securityholders’ Lists. (a) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of each Series of Securities contained in the most
recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Security registrar for such Series, if so acting. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.01 upon
receipt of a new list so furnished. 
 (b) In case three or more Holders of Registered Securities of any Series (hereinafter referred to as
“applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Security for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states
that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders of Securities of a particular Series (in which case the applicants must all hold Securities of such Series) or with Holders of all Securities with respect to their rights under this
Indenture or under such Securities and such application is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five business days after the receipt of such
application, at its election, either 
 (i) afford to such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the
Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4.02, or 
 (ii) inform such applicants
as to the approximate number of Holders of Securities of such Series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of subsection
(a) of this Section, as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Securityholders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application. 

If the Trustee shall elect not to afford to such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail
to each Securityholder of such Series or all Securities, as the case may be, whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, a copy of
the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with 

  
 32 

 
reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after
such tender, the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best
interests of the Holders of Securities of such Series or all Securities, as the case may be, or could be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a
hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of such order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after
notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met, and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Securityholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of
such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 

(c) Each and every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Issuer and the Trustee that neither the Issuer nor
the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in accordance with the provisions of subsection
(b) of this Section, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under such subsection (b). 

SECTION 4.03 Reports by the Parent (a) . (a) So long as the Securities of any Series remain Outstanding, the Parent shall file
with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Parent files the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents, and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from
time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Parent is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The filing of such reports, information and documents
with the Commission on EDGAR (or any successor system thereto) shall be deemed to constitute filing of such reports, information and documents with the Trustee; provided, however that the Parent shall provide a physical or electronic copy thereof to
the Trustee. In the event that the Parent is at any time no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it shall continue to provide the Trustee with reports
containing substantially the same information as would have been required to be filed with the Commission had the Parent continued to have been subject to such reporting requirements. 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 Parent’s or
Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates); 

(b) to file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such
additional information, documents, and reports with respect to compliance by the Issuer and Parent with the conditions and covenants provided for it in this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations; and 

  
 33 

 (c) to transmit by mail to the Holders of Registered Securities in the manner and to the extent
required by Sections 4.04(c) and 11.04, within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries of any information, documents, and reports required to be filed by the Issuer or Parent pursuant to subsection (a) and (b) of this
Section as may be required to be transmitted to such Holders by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission. 

SECTION 4.04 Reports by the Trustee. (a) On or before August 15 in each year following the date hereof, so long as any
Securities are outstanding hereunder, the Trustee shall transmit by mail as provided below to the Securityholders of each Series, as hereinafter in this Section provided, a brief report dated as of the preceding June 15 with respect to: 

(i) its eligibility under Section 6.09 and its qualification under Section 6.08 or in lieu thereof, if to the best of
its knowledge it has continued to be eligible and qualified under such Sections, a written statement to such effect; 
 (ii)
the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee, as such, which remain unpaid on the date of such report and for the reimbursement of which it
claims or may claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Securities of any Series, on any property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee, except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such advances if such advances
so remaining unpaid aggregate not more than 1/2 of 1% of the principal amount of the Securities of any Series Outstanding on the date of such report; 

(iii) the amount, interest rate, and maturity date of all other indebtedness owing by the Issuer and Parent (or by any other
obligor on the Securities) to the Trustee in its individual capacity on the date of such report, with a brief description of any property held as collateral security therefor, except any indebtedness based upon a creditor relationship arising in any
manner described in Section 6.13(b)(2), (3), (4) or (6); 
 (iv) the property and funds, if any, physically in the
possession of the Trustee (as such) on the date of such report; 
 (v) any additional Series of Securities which the Trustee
has not previously reported; and 
 (vi) any action taken by the Trustee in the performance of its duties under this
Indenture which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion materially affects the Securities, except action in respect of a default, notice of which has been or is to be withheld by it in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5.11. 

  
 34 

 (b) The Trustee shall transmit to the Securityholders of such Series, as provided in subsection
(c) of this Section, a brief report with respect to the character and amount of any advances (and if the Trustee elects so to state, the circumstances surrounding the making thereof) made by the Trustee, as such, since the date of the last
report transmitted pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section (or if such report has not yet been so transmitted, since the date of this Indenture) for the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge prior
to that of the Securities of such Series on property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee and which it has not previously reported pursuant to this subsection (b), except that the Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to report such
advances if such advances remaining unpaid at any time aggregate 10% or less of the principal amount of Securities of such Series Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted within 90 days after such time. 

(c) Reports pursuant to this Section shall be transmitted by mail to all registered Holders of Securities, as the names and addresses of such
Holders appear upon the Security register of the Issuer and to such Holders of Unregistered Securities as have, within the two years preceding such notice, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose, and, except in the case of
reports pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 4.04, to all Holders whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time of such notice by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02(a). 

(d) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Securityholders, be furnished to the Issuer and be filed by the
Trustee with each stock exchange upon which the Securities of any applicable Series are listed and also with the Commission. The Issuer agrees to notify the Trustee with respect to any Series when and as the Securities of such Series become admitted
to trading on any national securities exchange.

shall have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration having been
rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Parent or Issuer, as applicable, by the Trustee or to the Parent or Issuer, as applicable, and the Trustee by the Holders of
at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of such Series at the time Outstanding a written notice specifying such default and requiring the Parent or Issuer, as applicable, to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or cause such

it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian,
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Parent or Issuer or of substantially all of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its
inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Parent or Issuer in furtherance of any such action; or 

(h) (i) except as permitted by this Indenture, the Guarantee with respect to any Series shall be held in any judicial
proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect or (ii) Parent, or any Person acting on behalf of Parent, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under the Guarantee (except pursuant to the

maturity of the Securities of such Series then Outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Parent (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders), may declare the principal (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities,
such principal amount as may be determined in accordance with the terms thereof) of all the Securities of such Series to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable,
anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of such Series contained to the contrary notwithstanding. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if at any time after the principal of the Securities of such Series (or, in the case
of Original Issue Discount Securities, such principal amount as may be determined in accordance with the terms thereof) shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been
obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Issuer shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series are payable (except as otherwise provided pursuant to
Section 2.03 for the Securities of such Series and except as provided in Section 2.12(b), (e) and (f) hereof) all matured installments of interest, if any, upon all the Securities of such Series and the principal of any and all
Securities of such Series which shall have become due otherwise than by such acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest,
at the rate borne by the Securities of such Series (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, at the yield to maturity) to the date of such payment or deposit) and in Dollars such amount as shall be sufficient to cover compensation to
the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and 

  
 37 

 
counsel and any and all defaults under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of Securities of such Series which shall have become due by such acceleration, shall have been
remedied, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Securities of such Series then Outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer and Parent and to the Trustee for the Securities of such
Series, may waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. 

SECTION 5.02 Collection of Indebtedness by Trustee: Trustee May Prove Debt. Each of the Issuer and Parent covenants that
(a) in case default shall be made in the payment of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of any Series when such interest shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 30 days, or
(b) in case default shall be made in the payment of all or any part of the principal of any of the Securities of any Series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity of the Securities of such Series or upon any
redemption or by declaration or otherwise, then upon demand of the Trustee for the Securities of such Series, the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, will pay to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series for the benefit of the Holders of the
Securities of such Series and the Holders of any Coupons appertaining thereto the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all Securities of such Series or such Coupons for principal of or interest, as the case may be (with
interest to the date of such payment upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest specified in the
Securities of such Series); and in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including compensation to, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, the Trustee
and each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel. 
 Until such demand is made by the Trustee, the Issuer may
pay the principal of and interest on the Securities of any Series to the persons entitled thereto, whether or not the principal of and interest on the Securities of such Series are overdue. 

In case the Issuer or Parent shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee for the Securities of such Series, in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or
final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Issuer, Parent or other obligor upon such Securities and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer, Parent or other obligor upon such
Securities and Coupons, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable. 
 In case there shall be pending proceedings
relative to the Parent or Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities and Coupons under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or
trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Parent or Issuer or its property or such other obligor, or in case of any other comparable judicial
proceedings relative to the 

  
 38 

 
Parent or Issuer or other obligor under the Securities of any Series and Coupons, if any, or to the creditors or property of the Parent or Issuer or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective
of whether the principal of any Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a claim or claims for the
whole amount of principal (or, if the Securities of such Series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be due and payable with respect to the Securities of such Series pursuant to a declaration in
accordance with Section 5.01 hereof) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities of any Series, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any
claim for compensation to, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel) and of the Securityholders and the Holders of any Coupons
appertaining thereto allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Parent or Issuer or other obligor upon all Securities of any Series, or to the creditors or property of the Parent or Issuer or such other obligor, 

(b) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the holders of the Securities of any Series in
any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings, and 

(c) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all
amounts received with respect to the claims of the Securityholders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver, or liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make payments to the
Trustee for the Securities of such Series, and, in the event that such Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to such Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover compensation to, and all
expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, such Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel and all other amounts due to such Trustee or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to Section 6.06.

 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of any Series or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any
such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar person. 
 All rights of action and of
asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Securities or any Coupon appertaining thereto, may be enforced by the Trustee for the Securities of such Series without the possession of any of the Securities of such Series or any Coupon
appertaining thereto or the production thereof at any trial or other proceedings relative 

  
 39 

 
thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the
expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities and Holders of any Coupons in respect of which such action
was taken. 
 In any proceedings brought by the Trustee for the Securities of such Series (and also any proceedings involving the
interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities and Coupons appertaining thereto in respect to which such action was taken, and it
shall not be necessary to make any Holders of such Securities and Coupons appertaining thereto parties to any such proceedings. 

SECTION 5.03 Application of Proceeds. Any moneys collected by the Trustee for the Securities of such Series pursuant to
this Article in respect of the Securities of any Series shall be applied in the following order at the date or dates fixed by such Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such moneys on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the
several Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto in respect of which moneys have been collected and stamping (or otherwise noting) thereon the payment, or issuing Securities of such Series in reduced principal amounts in exchange for the
presented Securities of like Series if only partially paid, or upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of costs and
expenses applicable to such Series in respect of which moneys have been collected, including compensation to, and all expenses and liabilities incurred and all advances made by, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents
and attorneys and all other amounts due to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, including Section 6.06; 

SECOND: In case the principal of the Securities of such Series in respect of which moneys have been collected shall not have become and be then
due and payable, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such Series in default in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that payment of such interest is permissible by law and that such
interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest specified in such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or
preference; 
 THIRD: In case the principal of the Securities of such Series in respect of which moneys have been collected shall have become
and shall be then due and payable, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all the Securities of such Series for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal, and (to the extent that payment of such interest
is permissible by law and that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest specified in the Securities of such Series; and in case such moneys shall be insufficient
to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such Series, then to the payment of such principal and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest or of interest over principal, or of any installment
of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such Series over any other Security of such Series, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest; and 

  
 40 

 FOURTH: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Issuer or any other person lawfully
entitled thereto. 
 SECTION 5.04 Suits for Enforcement. In case an Event of Default has occurred, has not been waived and is
continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights,
either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture or to enforce any other legal or
equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 
 SECTION 5.05 Restoration of Rights on Abandonment of
Proceedings. In case the Trustee for the Securities of any Series shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case, subject to the determination in any such proceeding, the Issuer, Parent and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies
and powers of the Issuer, Parent, the Trustee and the Securityholders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken. 

SECTION 5.06 Limitations on Suits by Securityholders. No Holder of any Security of any Series or Holder of any Coupon shall
have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a trustee,
receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless
also the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action or proceedings in its own name as trustee hereunder and
shall have offered to the Trustee such indemnity, as it may require, against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity shall
have failed to institute any such action or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.09; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by
the taker and Holder of every Security and by a Holder of each Coupon appertaining thereto with every other taker and Holder of a Security or Holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Securities of any
Series or one or more Holders of any Coupons appertaining thereto shall have any right in any manner whatever, by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holder of
Securities or any other Holders of such Coupons, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and
common benefit of all Holders of Securities of the applicable Series and all the Holders of Coupons appertaining thereto. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be
entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 

  
 41 

 SECTION 5.07 Unconditional Right of Securityholders to Institute Certain
Suits. Notwithstanding any provision in this Indenture and any provision of any Security or Coupon, the right of any Holder of any Security and the right of any Holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto to receive payment of the principal
of and interest on such Security at the respective rates, in the respective amount and in the currency or currency unit therein prescribed on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to institute suit for the enforcement of
any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

SECTION 5.08 Powers and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver of Default. Except as provided in
Section 5.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders 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. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Securityholder to
exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to
Section 5.06, every power and remedy given by this Indenture or by law to the Trustee, to the Securityholders or to the Holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by
the Trustee, the Securityholders or Holders of any Coupon. 
 SECTION 5.09 Control by Securityholders. The Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each Series affected (with each Series treated as a separate class) at the time Outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series by this Indenture; provided that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with law and the
provisions of this Indenture and provided further that (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall determine that the
action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee shall determine that the action
or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall so determine that the actions or forebearances specified in or pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interests
of Holders of the Securities of all Series or of the Holders of any Coupons appertaining thereto so affected not joining in the giving of said direction, it being understood that (subject to Section 6.01) the Trustee shall have no duty to
ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders. 

  
 42 

 Nothing in this Indenture shall impair the right of the Trustee in its discretion to take any
action deemed proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction or directions by Securityholders. 
 SECTION 5.10
Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series at the time Outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series and Holders of all Coupons, if
any, appertaining thereto waive any past default hereunder or its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any of the Securities of such Series. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, Parent, the Trustee,
the Holders of the Securities of such Series and the Holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to
have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or
impair any right consequent thereon. 
 SECTION 5.11 Trustee to Give Notice of Default. But May Withhold in Certain
Circumstances. The Trustee shall transmit to the Securityholders of any Series notice in the manner and to the extent provided in Sections 4.04(c) and 11.04, of all defaults which have occurred with respect to such Series, such notice to be
transmitted within 90 days after the occurrence thereof, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “default” or “defaults” for the purposes of this Section being hereby defined to mean
any event or condition which is, or with notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default); provided that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any of the Securities of such Series or any
default in the payment of any sinking fund installment or analogous obligation in respect of any of the Securities of such Series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive
committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Securityholders of such Series. 

SECTION 5.12 Right of Court to Require Filing of Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each
Holder of any Security and each Holder of any Coupon, by his acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by the Issuer or Parent, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder or group of Securityholders of any Series holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities
of such Series, or, in the case of any suit 

  
 43 

 
relating to or arising under clause (e) of Section 5.01 (if the suit relates to Securities of more than one but less than all Series), 10% in aggregate principal amount of Securities
Outstanding affected thereby, or in the case of any suit relating to or arising under clause (e) (if the suit under clause (e) relates to all the Securities then Outstanding), (f), (g) or (h) of Section 5.01, 10% in aggregate
principal amount of all Securities Outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the due date expressed in such Security. 

ARTICLE SIX. 

Concerning the Trustee 

SECTION 6.01 Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee; During Default; Prior to Default. With respect to the Holders of
any Series of Securities issued hereunder, the Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a particular Series and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred with
respect to such Series, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a Series has occurred (which has not been cured or waived)
of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such Series, shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 
 No provision of this
Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 

(a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any Series and after the curing or waiving of all such
Events of Default with respect to such Series which may have occurred: 
 (i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee with
respect to the Securities of any Series shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the
absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any statements, certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such statements, certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine
the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture; 

  
 44 

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

(c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders pursuant to Section 5.09 relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.

 None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such liability is not assured to it.

 Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the conditions of this Section 6.01. 
 SECTION 6.02 Certain Rights of the
Trustee. Subject to Section 6.01: 
 (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Opinion of Counsel or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security or other paper or document believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
 (b) any request, direction, order or demand of the Issuer or
Parent mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be evidenced to the Trustee by a
copy thereof certified by the secretary or any assistant secretary of the Issuer or Parent, as applicable; 
 (c) the Trustee may consult
with counsel and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
Counsel; 
 (d) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the
request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred therein or thereby; 
 (e) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to
be authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

  
 45 

 (f) The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it
by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the losses, liabilities, claims and expenses that might be incurred by it
in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (g) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties
hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 

(h) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture; 

(i) The permissive rights of the Trustee shall not be construed as a duty; 

(j) The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, request that the Issuer deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or
titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture; 
 (k) The Trustee shall not be required to
give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder; 
 (l) The rights, privileges, protections,
immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person
employed to act hereunder; 
 (m) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action 

(n) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of, or otherwise monitor compliance with, the Issuer’s or the
Parent’s covenants herein; 
 (o) prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder and after the curing or waiving of all
Events of Default, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond,
debenture, note, coupon, security, or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all Series affected then Outstanding; provided that, if
the payment within a time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms
of 

  
 46 

 
this Indenture, the Trustee may require indemnity against such expenses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the expenses of every such investigation shall be paid by the Issuer or Parent
or, if paid by the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee, shall be repaid by the Issuer or Parent upon demand; and 
 (p) the Trustee may
execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney
appointed with due care by it hereunder. 
 SECTION 6.03 Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals, Disposition of Securities or
Application of Proceeds Thereof . The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer or Parent, and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, the Coupons or the Guarantees. The Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute
and deliver this Indenture and perform its obligations hereunder. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer or Parent of any of the Securities or of the proceeds thereof. 

SECTION 6.04 Trustee and Agents May Hold Securities; Collections, etc. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security registrar, or any
agent of the Issuer, Parent or the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities or Coupons with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent and, subject to Sections 6.08
and 6.13, if operative, may otherwise deal with the Issuer or Parent and receive, collect, hold and retain collections from the Issuer or Parent with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent. 

SECTION 6.05 Moneys Held by Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.04 hereof, all moneys received by the
Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law. Neither the Trustee
nor any agent of the Issuer, Parent or the Trustee shall be under any liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder (except as otherwise agreed with the Issuer or Parent, as applicable). 

SECTION 6.06 Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Its Prior Claim. Each of the Issuer and Parent covenants and
agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, compensation in Dollars (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) and each of the Issuer
and Parent covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee upon its request in Dollars for all expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of it in accordance with any of the provisions of
this Indenture (including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and other persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad
faith. Each of the Issuer and Parent also covenants to indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability 

  
 47 

 
or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the trusts hereunder and its duties
hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against or investigating any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Issuer and Parent under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor
Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Such additional
indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities or the Holders of particular
Coupons, and the Securities are hereby subordinated to such senior claim. 
 SECTION 6.07 Right of Trustee to Rely on
Officers’ Certificate, etc. Whenever in the administration of the trusts of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting any
action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an
Officers’ Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel or both complying with Section 11.05 delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee
for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it or under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 
 SECTION 6.08
Disqualification of Trustee; Conflicting Interests. (a) If the Trustee for the Securities of any Series has or shall acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in this Section, it shall, within 90 days after ascertaining that it has
such conflicting interest, either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign in the manner and with the effect specified in this Indenture. 

(b) In the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, the Trustee shall, within 10
days after the expiration of such 90 day period, transmit by mail notice of such failure to the Securityholders in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 4.04(c) and 11.04. 

(c) For the purposes of this Section, the Trustee for the Securities of any Series shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect
to Securities of any Series if 
 (i) the Trustee is trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Outstanding Securities
of any other Series or is a trustee under another indenture under which any other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in any other securities, of the Company are outstanding, unless such other indenture is a collateral trust
indenture under which the only collateral consists of Securities issued under this Indenture; provided that there shall be excluded from the operation of this paragraph this indenture with respect to the Securities of any Series other than such
Series or any other indenture or indentures under which other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Company are outstanding if (x) this Indenture is and such other indenture or

  
 48 

 
indentures are wholly unsecured, and such other indenture or indentures are hereafter qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, unless the Commission shall have found and declared by order
pursuant to Section 305(b) or Section 307(c) of such Trust Indenture Act of 1939 that differences exist between the provisions of this Indenture with respect to Securities of such Series and one or more other Series, or the provisions of
this Indenture and the provisions of such other indenture or indentures which are so likely to involve a material conflict of interest as to make it necessary in the public interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from
acting as such under this Indenture with respect to Securities of such Series and such other Series, or under this Indenture or such other indenture or indentures, or (y) the Company shall have sustained the burden of proving, on application to
the Commission and after opportunity for hearing thereon, that trusteeship under this Indenture with respect to Securities of such Series and such other Series, or under this Indenture and such other indenture or indentures is not so likely to
involve a material conflict of interest as to make it necessary in the public interest or for the protection of investors to disqualify the Trustee from acting as such under this Indenture with respect to Securities of such Series and such other
Series, or under this Indenture and such other indentures; 
 (ii) the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers
is an obligor upon the Securities of any Series issued under this Indenture or an underwriter for the Company; 
 (iii) the
Trustee directly or indirectly controls or is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with the Company or an underwriter for the Company; 

(iv) the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is a director, officer, partner, employee, appointee, or
representative of the Company, or of an underwriter (other than the Trustee itself) for the Company who is currently engaged in the business of underwriting, except that (x) one individual may be a director or an executive officer, or both, of
the Trustee and a director or an executive officer, or both, of the Company, but may not be at the same time an executive officer of both the Trustee and the Company; (y) if and so long as the number of directors of the Trustee in office is
more than nine, one additional individual may be a director or an executive officer, or both, of the Trustee and a director of the Company; and (z) the Trustee may be designated by the Company or by any underwriter for the Company to act in the

 (vi) the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral security for
an obligation which is in default, (x) 5% or more of the voting securities or 10% or more of any other class of security of the Company, not including the Securities issued under this Indenture and securities issued under any other indenture under
which the Trustee is also trustee, or (y) 10% or more of any class of security of an underwriter for the Company; 
 (vii)
the Trustee is the beneficial owner of, or holds as collateral security for an obligation which is in default, 5% or more of the voting securities of any person who, to the knowledge of the Trustee, owns 10% or more of the voting securities of, or
controls directly or indirectly or is under direct or indirect common control with, the Company; 
 (viii) the Trustee is the

vivos trustee, guardian, committee or conservator, or in any other similar capacity, an aggregate of 25% or more of the voting securities, or of any class of security, of any person, the beneficial ownership of a specified percentage of which would
have constituted a conflicting interest under Section 6.08(c)(vi), (vii) or (viii). As to any such securities of which the Trustee acquired ownership through becoming executor, administrator or testamentary trustee of an estate which included
them, the provisions of the preceding sentence shall not apply, for a period of two years from the date of such acquisition, to the extent that such securities included in such estate do not exceed 25% of such voting securities or 25% of any such

joint control over such securities vested in it, shall, but only so long as such failure shall continue, be considered as though beneficially owned by the Trustee for the purposes of subsections (c)(vi), (vii) and (viii) of this Section. 

  
 50 

 The specification of percentages in subsections (c)(v) to (ix), inclusive, of this Section shall
not be construed as indicating that the ownership of such percentages of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of subsections (c)(iii) or (vii) of this Section.

 For the purposes of subsections (c)(vi), (vii), (viii) and of this Section, only: 

(i) the terms “security” and “securities” shall include only such securities as are generally known as

participation in any such note or evidence of indebtedness; 
 (ii) an obligation shall be deemed to be in default when a
default in payment of principal shall have continued for 30 days or more and shall not have been cured; and

trust where the interest or interests of the beneficiary or beneficiaries are evidenced by a security; 

  
 51 

 (iv) the term “voting security” shall mean any security presently
entitling the owner or holder thereof to vote on the direction or management of the affairs of a person, or any security issued under or pursuant to any trust, agreement or arrangement whereby a trustee or trustees or agent or agents for the owner
or holder of such security are presently entitled to vote on the direction or management of the affairs of a person; 
 (v)
the term “Company” shall mean any obligor upon the Securities; and

accordance with the following provisions: 
 (i) a specified percentage of the voting securities of the Trustee, the Company
or any other person referred to in this Section (each of whom is referred to as “person” in this paragraph) means such amount of the outstanding voting securities of such person as entitles the holder or holders thereof to cast such

the class outstanding; 
 (iii) the term “amount”, when used in regard to securities, means the principal amount if

thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such Series different classes, and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed
sufficient to constitute them securities of different classes, whether or not they are issued under a single indenture. 
 SECTION 6.09
Persons Eligible for Appointment as Trustee. The Trustee for each Series of Securities hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or the
District of Columbia having a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000, and which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State or District of Columbia
authority. Such corporation shall have its principal place of business in the State of New York, The City of New York, or in the State of Illinois, City of Chicago, if there be such a corporation in either such location willing to act upon
reasonable and customary terms and conditions. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section,
the combined capital and surplus of such corporation 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 the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.10. 

  
 53 

 SECTION 6.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor Trustee. (a)
The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign with respect to one or more or all Series of Securities by giving written notice of resignation to the Parent and Issuer and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders
in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 11.04. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees with respect to the applicable Series by written instrument in duplicate,
executed by authority of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee or trustees. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed with respect to any
Series and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation, the resigning trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Securityholder who has
been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of the applicable Series for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 5.12, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the
appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 

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

(i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 6.08 with respect to any Series of Securities after
written request therefor by the Issuer, Parent or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such Series for at least six months; or 

(ii) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Issuer, Parent or by any Securityholder; or 
 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable
of acting with respect to any Series of the Securities, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee
or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; 
 then, in any such case, the Issuer may remove the Trustee
with respect to the applicable Series of Securities and appoint a successor trustee for such Series by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 5.12, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such Series for at least six months may on behalf of
himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to such Series. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it
may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. 

  
 54 

 (c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each Series at
the time outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of such Series and appoint a successor trustee with respect to the Securities of such Series by delivering to the Trustee so removed, to the successor trustee so
appointed and to the Parent or Issuer the evidence provided for in Section 7.01 of the action in that regard taken by the Securityholders. 

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee with respect to any Series and any appointment of a successor trustee with respect to such Series
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 6.11. 

SECTION 6.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Trustee . Any successor trustee appointed as provided in
Section 6.10 shall execute and deliver to the Issuer and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee with respect to all or any applicable
Series shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and obligations with respect to such Series of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as trustee for such Series hereunder; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Issuer or of the successor trustee, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, the trustee ceasing to act shall, subject to Section 10.04,
pay over to the successor trustee all moneys at the time held by it hereunder and shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. Upon request of any such successor
trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a prior claim
upon all property or funds held or collected by such trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.06. 

If a successor trustee is appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) Series, the Issuer, the predecessor Trustee
and each successor trustee with respect to the Securities of any applicable Series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the
rights, powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any Series as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and 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 under separate indentures. 

No successor trustee with respect to any Series of Securities shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 6.11 unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 6.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 6.09. 

  
 55 

 Upon acceptance of appointment by any successor trustee as provided in this Section 6.11,
the Issuer shall give notice in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 11.04 to the Holders of Securities of any Series for which such successor trustee is acting as trustee at their last addresses as they shall appear in the Security
register. If the acceptance of appointment is substantially contemporaneous with the resignation, then the notice called for by the preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section 6.10. If the Issuer fails to mail such
notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Issuer. 

SECTION 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee. 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 the corporate trust business of the Trustee,
shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 6.08 and eligible under the provisions of Section 6.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. 
 In case at the time such successor
to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities of any Series shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any
predecessor Trustee and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and, in case at that time any of the Securities of any Series shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of
any predecessor Trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities of such Series or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of
the Trustee shall have; provided, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Securities of any Series in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors
by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 SECTION 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. (a)
Subject to the provisions of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company within four months prior to a default, as defined in subsection (c) of this Section, or
subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually, the Holders of the Securities of such Series, the Holders of
Coupons, if any appertaining thereto, and the holders of other indenture securities (as defined in this section): 
 (1) an
amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest, effected after the beginning of such four months’ period and valid as against the Company and its other
creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in subsection (a)(2) of this Section, or from the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee
could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against the Company upon the date of such default; and 

  
 56 

 (2) all property received by the Trustee in respect of any claim as such
creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such four months’ period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, subject, however, to the
rights, if any, of the Company and its other creditors in such property or such proceeds. 
 Nothing herein contained, however, shall affect
the right of the Trustee: 
 (A) to retain for its own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any
person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and (ii) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third person, and (iii) distributions made in cash, securities or other property in respect of claims
filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable state law; 

(B) to realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held
prior to the beginning of such four months’ period; 
 (C) to realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of
the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such four months’ period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the
creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default as defined in subsection (c) of this Section would occur
within four months; or 
 (D) to receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph (B) or (C), against the release
of any property held as security for such claim as provided in such paragraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property. 

For the purposes of paragraphs (B), (C) and (D) above, property substituted after the beginning of such four months’ period for
property held as security at the time of such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such paragraphs is
created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding any preexisting claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as such preexisting claim. 

If the Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned
between the Trustee, the Securityholders, the Holders of Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee, such Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities realize,
as a result of payments from such special account and 

  
 57 

 
payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United States Code or applicable State
law, the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the
respective claims of the Trustee, such Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities, dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the United
States Code or applicable State law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special
account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim, the term “dividends” shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the
United States Code or applicable State law, whether such distribution is made in cash, securities or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such
bankruptcy, receivership or proceeding for reorganization is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion between the Trustee, such Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the provisions of this
paragraph, the funds and the property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in determining the fairness
of the distributions to be made to the Trustee, such Securityholders and the holders of other indenture securities with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value of any
securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the provisions of
this paragraph as a mathematical formula. 
 Any Trustee who has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such four months’
period shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection (a) as though such resignation or removal had not occurred. If any Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such four months’ period, it shall be subject to
the provisions of this subsection (a) if and only if the following conditions exist: 
 (i) the receipt of property or
reduction of claim which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee had continued as trustee, occurred after the beginning of such four months’ period; and 

(ii) such receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within four months after such resignation or removal. 

(b) There shall be excluded from the operation of this Section a creditor relationship arising from: 

(1) the ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of
one year or more at the time of acquisition by the Trustee; 

  
 58 

 (2) advances authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent
jurisdiction or by this Indenture for the purpose of preserving any property which shall at any time be subject to the lien of this Indenture or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances thereon, if notice of such advance and of
the circumstances surrounding the making thereof is given to the Securityholders of the applicable Series of Securities and the Holders of the Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto, at the time and in the manner provided in this Indenture; 

(3) disbursements made in the ordinary course of business in the capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent,
registrar, custodian, Paying Agent, fiscal agent or depositary, or other similar capacity; 
 (4) an indebtedness created as
a result of services rendered or premises rented or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities sold in a cash transaction as defined in subsection (c)(3) below; 

(5) the ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation organized under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the
Federal Reserve Act, as amended, which is directly or indirectly a creditor of the Company; or 
 (6) the acquisition,
ownership, acceptance or negotiation of any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances or obligations which fall within the classification of self-liquidating paper as defined in subsection (c)(4) of this Section. 

(c) As used in this Section: 

(1) the term “default” shall mean any failure to make payment in full of the principal of or interest upon any of the
Securities or upon the other indenture securities when and as such principal or interest becomes due and payable; 
 (2) the
term “other indenture securities” shall mean securities upon which the Company is an obligor (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act of 1939) outstanding under any other indenture (i) under which the Trustee is also trustee,
(ii) which contains provisions substantially similar to the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, and (iii) under which a default exists at the time of the apportionment of the funds and property held in said special account;

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

(4) the term “self-liquidating paper” shall mean any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made,
drawn, negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacture, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which 

  
 59 

 
is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of, or a lien upon the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise
previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of
exchange, acceptance or obligation; and 
 (5) the term “Company” shall mean any obligor upon the Securities. 

ARTICLE SEVEN. 

Concerning the Securityholders 

SECTION 7.01 Evidence of Action Taken by Securityholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a specified percentage in principal amount of the Securityholders of any or all Series may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed by such specified percentage of Securityholders 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. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, Parent and the
Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Article. 
 (b) The ownership of Registered Securities shall be proved by the Security
register. 
 (c) The amount of Unregistered Securities held by any person executing any instrument or writing as a Securityholder, the
numbers of such Unregistered Securities, and the date of his holding the same may be proved by the production of such Securities or by a certificate executed by any trust company, bank, broker or member of a national securities exchange (wherever
situated), as depositary, if such certificate is in form satisfactory to the Trustee, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such depositary, or exhibited to it, the Unregistered Securities therein described; or
such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person executing such instrument or writing as a Securityholder, if such certificate or affidavit is in form satisfactory to the Trustee. The Trustee and the Issuer may assume that such
ownership of any Unregistered Security continues until (i) another certificate or affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Unregistered Security is produced, or (ii) such Unregistered Security is produced by some other
person, or (iii) such Unregistered Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security, or (iv) such Unregistered Security has been cancelled in accordance with Section 2.10. 

  
 60 

 SECTION 7.02 Proof of Execution of Instruments. Subject to Sections 6.01 and
6.2, the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy may be proved in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. 

SECTION 7.03 Holders to Be Treated as Owners. The Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may deem
and treat the person in whose name any Security shall be registered upon the Security register for such Series as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on such Security and for all other purposes; and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any such person, or upon his order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such
Security. 
 SECTION 7.04 Securities Owned by Parent or Issuer Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the Holders
of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any or all Series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Securities which are owned by the Parent or Issuer or any other obligor on the
Securities with respect to which such determination is being made or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Parent or Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities with
respect to which such determination is being made shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any
such direction, consent or waiver only Securities which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction
of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Securities and that the pledgee is not the Parent or Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities or any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities. In case of a dispute as to such right, the advice of counsel shall be full protection in respect of any decision made by the Trustee in accordance with such
advice. Upon request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and identifying all Securities, if any, known by the Parent or Issuer to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the
above- described persons; and, subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities not listed therein
are Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. 
 SECTION 7.05 Right of Revocation of Action Taken. At any
time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 7.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all Series, as the case may be,
specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included among the serial numbers of the Securities the Holders of which have consented to such action
may, by filing written notice at the corporate trust office and upon proof of holding as provided in this Article, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the Holder of any Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon 

  
 61 

 
all future Holders and owners of such Security and of any Securities issued in exchange or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon any
such Security. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all Series, as the case may be, specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon
the Issuer, Parent, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Securities affected by such action. 
 ARTICLE EIGHT. 

Supplemental Indentures 

SECTION 8.01 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Securityholders. The Issuer and Parent, when authorized by a
resolution of their Boards of Directors, and the Trustee for the Securities of any and all Series may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939 as in force at the date of the execution thereof), in form satisfactory to such Trustee, for one or more of the following purposes: 

(a) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge to the Trustee as security for the Securities of one or more Series any
property or assets; 
 (b) to evidence the succession of another corporation to the Issuer or Parent, or successive
successions, and the assumption by the successor corporation of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Issuer or Parent pursuant to Article Nine; 

(c) to add to the covenants of the Issuer and Parent such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions as their
Boards of Directors and the Trustee shall consider to be for the protection of the Holders of Securities of any or all Series and, if such additional covenants are to be for the benefit of less than all the Series of Securities stating that such
covenants are being added solely for the benefit of such Series, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions an Event of Default permitting the
enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth (and if such additional Events of Default are to be for the benefit of less than all Series of the Securities stating that such Events of Default are
being added solely for the benefit of such Series); provided, that in respect of any such additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision such supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period
may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such an Event of Default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such an Event of Default or may limit the
right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series to waive such an Event of Default; 

(d) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which way
be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture; or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or under any supplemental indenture as the Board
of Directors may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities or the Holders of any Coupons; 

  
 62 

 (e) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any Series as permitted by
Sections 2.01 and 2.03; 
 (f) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee
with respect to the Securities of one or more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than the one Trustee, pursuant
to the requirements of Section 6.11; or 
 (g) to evidence the assumption by Parent of all of the rights and obligations
of the Issuer hereunder with respect to a Series of Securities and under the Securities of such Series and the release of the Issuer from its liabilities hereunder and under such Securities as obligor on the Securities of such Series, all as
provided in Section 14.05 hereof. 
 The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Issuer and Parent in the execution of any such
supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage or pledge of any property thereunder, but the Trustee 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. 

Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section may be executed without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 8.02. 
 SECTION 8.02 Supplemental
Indentures With Consent of Securityholders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article Seven) of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each Series
affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), the Issuer and Parent, when authorized by a resolution of their Boards of Directors, and the Trustee for such Series of Securities may, from time to time and at any time, enter into an
indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as in force at the date of execution thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each such Series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (a) extend the
final maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or any premium thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof, or impair or affect the right of
any Securityholder to institute suit for payment thereof or, if the Securities provide therefor, any right of repayment at the option of the Securityholder without the consent of the Holder of each Security so affected, (b) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Securities of any Series, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or (c) release Parent from its obligations in respect of its Guarantee of any Series or modify the Guarantee of any
series other than in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Security so affected. 

  
 63 

 Upon the request of the Issuer, accompanied by a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors
certified by the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Issuer authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee for such Series of Securities of evidence of the consent of Securityholders as
aforesaid and other documents, if any, required by Section 7.01, the Trustee for such Series of Securities shall join with the Issuer and Parent in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects such
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case such Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed
supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. 
 Promptly after the execution by
the Issuer, Parent and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Issuer shall give notice in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 11.04 to the Holders of Securities of each Series
affected thereby at their addresses as they shall appear on the Securities register of the Issuer, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein,
shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 
 For the purposes of this
Section 8.02 only, if the Securities of any Series are issuable upon the exercise of warrants, each holder of an unexercised and unexpired warrant with respect to such series shall be deemed to be a Holder of Outstanding Securities of such
Series in the amount issuable upon the exercise of such warrant. For such purposes, the ownership of any such warrant shall be determined by the Issuer in a manner consistent with customary commercial practices. The Trustee for such Series shall be
entitled to rely on an Officers’ Certificate as to the principal amount of Securities of such Series in respect of which consents shall have been executed by holders of such warrants. 

SECTION 8.03 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions
hereof, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Issuer, Parent and the
Holders of Securities of each Series and Holders of Coupons affected thereby shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such
supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 

SECTION 8.04 Documents to Be Given to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall
receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article Eight complies with the applicable provisions of this Indenture. 

  
 64 

 SECTION 8.05 Notation on Securities in Respect of Supplemental Indentures.
Securities of any Series (including any Coupons appertaining thereto) authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article may bear, upon the direction of the Issuer, a notation in
form satisfactory to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series as to any matter provided for by such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Trustee shall so determine, new Securities of any Series and any Coupons appertaining thereto so
modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in
exchange for the Securities of such Series then Outstanding and any Coupons appertaining thereto then Outstanding. 
 ARTICLE NINE.

 Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Conveyance 

SECTION 9.01 Issuer and Parent May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. The Issuer and Parent may each consolidate with, or
sell, convey or lease all or substantially all of its assets to, or merge with or into, any other corporation, provided that in any such case, (i) either the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, shall be the continuing corporation, or the successor
corporation shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, a State thereof, the District of Columbia, Canada, any province of Canada, Norway, Switzerland or any member state of the European Union and
such successor corporation shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all the Securities or Guarantees, as applicable, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all
of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed or observed by the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, by supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such corporation, and (ii) the
Issuer or Parent, as applicable, or such successor corporation, as the case may be, shall not, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or such sale, conveyance or lease, be in default in the performance or observance of any such covenant or
condition. 
 SECTION 9.02 Successor Corporation Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or
conveyance, and following such an assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, with the same effect as if it had been named herein. Such successor
corporation may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, prior to such succession any or all of the Securities or Guarantees, as applicable, issuable hereunder which theretofore
shall not have been signed by the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor corporation instead of the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, and subject to all the terms, conditions and
limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities and Coupons and Guarantees, if any, appertaining thereto, which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Issuer
or Parent, as 

  
 65 

 
applicable, to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities or Guarantees which such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose.
All of the Securities and Coupons and Guarantees, if any, appertaining thereto, so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities and Coupons and Guarantees, if any, appertaining thereto,
theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities and Coupons and Guarantees, if any, appertaining thereto, had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made
in the Securities and Coupons and Guarantees, if any, appertaining thereto, thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 
 In the event
of any such sale or conveyance (other than a conveyance by way of lease) the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, (or any successor corporation which shall theretofore have become such in the manner described in this Article) shall be discharged from
all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities and the Guarantees and may be liquidated and dissolved. 

SECTION 9.03 Opinion of Counsel to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall receive
an Opinion of Counsel, prepared in accordance with Section 11.05, as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, and any such assumption, and any such liquidation or dissolution, complies with the
applicable provisions of this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE TEN. 

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture; Unclaimed Moneys 

SECTION 10.01 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. (A) If at any time (a) the Issuer shall have paid or caused to
be paid the principal of and interest on all the Securities of any Series and Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto Outstanding hereunder (other than Securities and Coupons which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or
paid as provided in Section 2.09) as and when the same shall have become due and payable, or (b) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities of any Series and Coupons theretofore authenticated (other than
any Securities of such Series and Coupons which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.09) or (c)(i) all the Securities of such Series and Coupons not theretofore delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation shall have become due and payable, or are by their terms to become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption, and (ii) the Issuer shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds the entire amount in the currency or currency unit required (other than moneys repaid by the Trustee or any Paying Agent
to the Issuer in accordance with Section 10.04) or Government Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will ensure the availability of cash sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all
Securities of such Series and Coupons (other than any Securities of such Series and Coupons which shall have been 

  
 66 

 
destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.09) not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal and interest
due or to become due to such date of maturity as the case may be, and if, in any such case, the Issuer shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuer with respect to Securities of such Series and Coupons, then this
Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to Securities of such Series and Coupons (except as to (i) rights of registration of transfer and exchange, and the Issuer’s right of optional redemption (provided the Issuer
provides sufficient funds to effect such optional redemption), (ii) substitution of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities and Coupons, (iii) rights of Holders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest thereon upon
the original stated due dates therefor (but not upon acceleration) and remaining rights of the Holders to receive mandatory sinking fund payments, if any, (iv) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (v) the
rights of the Securityholders of such Series as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the Trustee payable to all or any of them), and, subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee, on demand of the Issuer accompanied by
an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture with respect to such Series; provided, that the
rights of Holders of the Securities and Holders of Coupons to receive amounts in respect of principal of and interest on the Securities and Coupons held by them shall not be delayed longer than required by then-applicable mandatory rules or policies
of any securities exchange upon which the Securities are listed. The Issuer agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any costs or expenses thereafter incurred and to compensate the Trustee for any services thereafter rendered by the Trustee in connection
with this Indenture, the Securities of such Series and Coupons. 
 (B) (i) In addition to the provisions of Section 10.01(A), the
Issuer may, at its option by or pursuant to, or otherwise in a manner or by such Persons as may be authorized pursuant to, one or more Officer Actions or resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors, at any time with respect to the Securities
of any Series, elect to have either defeasance under subsection (ii) or covenant defeasance under subsection (iii) of this Section 10.01(B) be applied to the Outstanding Securities of such Series provided that provision therefor is
made for such application pursuant to Section 2.03 and the applicable conditions thereto as set forth in this Section 10.01(B) have been satisfied. 

(ii) Upon the Issuer’s exercise of the option referenced in Section 10.01(B)(i) applicable to this subsection, the Issuer may
terminate its obligations under the Outstanding Securities of any Series and this Indenture with respect to such Series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance
means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities of such Series 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 and request of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following: (1) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities of such Series to
receive payments in respect of the principal of and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (2) the Issuer’s and the Parent’s applicable obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 2.06, 2.09, 2.11,
3.02, 6.06, 10.04 and 10.05, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Section 10.01(B). Subject to compliance with this Section 10.01(B), the Issuer may exercise its option under this
subsection (ii) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under subsection (iii) with respect to Securities of such Series. 

  
 67 

 (iii) Upon the Issuer’s exercise of the option referenced in Section 10.01(B)(i)
applicable to this subsection, Parent and the Issuer shall be released from their obligations under Sections 3.07, 3.08, 3.09 and 3.10 with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such Series on and after the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”). For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such Series, Parent and the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in
respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision
herein or in any other document (including, without limitation, the form of Securities of such Series), but the remainder of this Indenture and the rights of each Holder of such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. 

(iv) The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 10.01(B)(ii) or (iii) to the Outstanding Securities
of such Series: 
 (1) The Issuer shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another
trustee satisfying the requirements of Sections 6.08 and 6.09 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Section and 10.01(B) applicable to it) under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, as trust funds in trust solely for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such Series, (I) cash in
the currency or currency unit required, or (II) Government Obligations maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts (payable in the currency in which the Securities of such Series are payable) and at such times as are sufficient,
without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal or interest, to pay the principal of and interest on the Outstanding Securities of such Series and Coupons to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, or (III) a combination
thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee
(or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (x) the principal of and each instalment of principal of and interest, if any, on the Outstanding Securities of such Series on the stated maturity of such principal or instalment of principal
or interest, if any, and (y) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to the Outstanding Securities of such Series on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
and of such Securities. Such irrevocable trust agreement shall include, among other things, (a) provision for the payments referenced in clauses (x) and (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, (b) the payment of the expenses of the
Trustee incurred or to be incurred in connection with carrying out such trust provisions, (c) rights of registration, transfer, substitution and exchange of Securities of such Series and Coupons in accordance with the terms stated in this
Indenture and (d) continuation of the rights and obligations and immunities of the Trustee as against the Holders of Securities of such Series as stated in this Indenture. 

  
 68 

 (2) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would
constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.01(f) and 5.01(g) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the
91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 

(3) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the Trustee for the Securities of such Series to have a conflicting
interest as defined in Section 6.08 and for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any Securities of the Issuer or Parent. 

(4) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this
Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or Parent is a party or by which it is bound. 
 (5) Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause any Outstanding Securities of such Series then listed on any registered national securities exchange under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to be delisted. 

(6) The Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee (I) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either (a) as a
result of such deposit and the related exercise of the Issuer’s option under this Section 10.01(B) (whether pursuant to subsection (ii) or (iii)) registration will not be required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
by the Issuer, the trust funds representing such deposit or the Trustee or (b) all necessary registrations under such Act have been effected and (II) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that Securityholders of such Series will not
recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same time as would have been the case if such
deposit and defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, had not occurred. The Trustee may also require that the Opinion of Counsel referred to in clause (I) state that such deposit and defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case
may be, does not violate applicable law. 
 (7) The Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
and Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the deposit and defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, contemplated by this Section 10.01(B) have been complied with. 

  
 69 

 (8) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with
any additional terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Issuer in connection therewith pursuant to Section 2.03. 

SECTION 10.02 Application by Trustee of Funds Deposited for Payment of Securities. Subject to Section 10.04, all
moneys deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of the
particular Securities of such Series and any Coupons appertaining thereto for the payment or redemption of which such moneys have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and interest; but such money
need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 SECTION 10.03 Repayment of Moneys Held by Paying
Agent. In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to Securities of any Series or Coupons, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent (other than the Issuer) under the provisions of this Indenture with
respect to such Series of Securities or Coupons shall, upon demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Trustee and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys. 

SECTION 10.04 Return of Unclaimed Moneys Held by Trustee and Paying Agent. Any moneys deposited with or paid to the Trustee
or any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of any Series or Coupons and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such
principal or interest shall have become due and payable, shall, upon the written request of the Issuer and unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be repaid to the Issuer by the
Trustee for such Series or such Paying Agent (except that with respect to any amounts then held by the Issuer in trust as its own Paying Agent no such request need be given and at such time the Issuer shall be discharged from its duty to hold such
moneys in trust as Paying Agent), and the Holder of the Security of such Series or Holders of Coupons appertaining thereto shall, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property laws,
thereafter look only to the Issuer for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or any Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease. Anything in this Article 10 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the written request of the Issuer any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 10.01(B)(iv) 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 such defeasance or covenant
defeasance, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 10.05 Reinstatement of
Issuer’s and Parent’s Obligations. If the Trustee is unable to apply any funds or Government Obligations in accordance with Section 10.01 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application or by reason of the Trustee’s inability to convert any such funds or Government Obligations into the 

  
 70 

 
currency or currency unit required to be paid with respect to the Securities of such Series, the Issuer’s and Parent’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of any Series
for which such application is prohibited shall be revived and reinstated as if no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 until such time as the Trustee is permitted to apply all such funds or Government Obligations in accordance with
Section 10.01 or is able to convert all such funds or Government Obligations; provided, however, that if the Issuer has made any payment of interest on or principal of any of such Securities or Coupons because of the reinstatement of its
obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Securityholders of such Securities to receive such payment from the funds or Government Obligations held by the Trustee; and provided, further, that this Section 10.05 shall not
be applicable to any Securities payable in United States of America dollars. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN. 

Miscellaneous Provisions 

SECTION 11.01 Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors of Issuer and Parent Exempt from Individual Liability. No
recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture, in any Security or Coupon appertaining thereto, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, as such or against any
past, present or future stockholder, officer, director or manager, as such, of the Issuer, Parent or of any successor, either directly or through the Issuer, Parent or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by
the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance of the Securities and Coupons, if any, by the Holders thereof and as part of the
consideration for the issue of the Securities. 
 SECTION 11.02 Provisions of Indenture for the Sole Benefit of Parties and
Securityholders. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities or Coupons, expressed or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any Person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent and their successors
hereunder and the Holders of the Securities and Coupons, if any, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of
the parties hereto and their successors and of the Holders of the Securities and Coupons. 
 SECTION 11.03 Successors and Assigns of
Issuer and Parent Bound by Indenture. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Issuer and Parent shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

SECTION 11.04 Notices and Demands on Issuer, Parent, Trustee and Securityholders. Any notice or demand which by any
provision of this Indenture is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee, by the Holders of Securities, or by the Holders of Coupons to or on the Issuer or Parent may be given or served by being deposited postage prepaid,
first-class mail (except as otherwise specifically provided herein) addressed (until another address of the Issuer or Parent is filed by the Issuer or Parent with the Trustee) to

Whirlpool Corporation, 2000 M-63, Benton Harbor, Michigan 49022-2692 Attention: General Counsel. Any notice, direction, request or demand by the Issuer or
Parent or any Securityholder to or upon the Trustee shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or made, for all purposes, if given or made at the Corporate Trust Office. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, (1) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Registered
Securities, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid to such Registered Holders as their names and addresses appear in the Security register
within the time prescribed and (2) if any of the Securities affected by such event are Unregistered Securities or Coupon Securities, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided or provided in the terms of
any Securities) if published once in a newspaper of general circulation in each place of payment within the time prescribed. 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 such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any
action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 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, and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given. 

In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to mail notice to the Issuer,
Parent and Securityholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such
notice. 
 SECTION 11.05 Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel; Statements to Be Contained
Therein. Upon any application or demand by the Issuer or Parent to the Trustee to take any action under any of the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer or Parent, as applicable, 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 counsel all such conditions precedent, if
any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no
additional certificate or opinion need be furnished. 
 Each certificate or opinion provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the
Trustee with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include (a) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition, (b) a brief statement as
to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based, (c) a statement that, in the opinion of such person, he has made such examination or
investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with and (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or
covenant has been complied with. 

  
 72 

 Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Issuer or Parent may be based, insofar
as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of or representations by counsel, unless such officer knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate, statement or opinion
may be based as aforesaid are erroneous. Any certificate, statement or opinion of counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, information with respect to which is in the possession of the Issuer or Parent, upon the certificate,
statement or opinion of or representations by an officer or officers of the Issuer or Parent, unless such counsel knows that the certificate, statement or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate, statement
or opinion may be based as aforesaid are erroneous. 
 Any certificate, statement or opinion of an officer of the Issuer or Parent or of
counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to accounting matters, upon a certificate or opinion of or representations by an accountant or firm of accountants in the employ of the Issuer or Parent, unless such officer or counsel, as the case may be,
knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the accounting matters upon which his certificate, statement or opinion may be based as aforesaid are erroneous. 

Any certificate or opinion of any independent firm of public accountants filed with the Trustee shall contain a statement that such firm is
independent. 
 SECTION 11.06 Payments Due on Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. Unless otherwise specified in a Security,
if the date of maturity of interest on or principal of the Securities of any Series or Coupons appertaining thereto or the date fixed for redemption or repayment of any such Security or Coupon shall not be a Business Day, then payment of interest or
principal need 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 date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such
date. 
 SECTION 11.07 Conflict of Any Provision of Indenture with Trust Indenture Act of 1939. If and to the extent that
any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision included in this Indenture which is required to be included herein by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive, of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, such required
provision shall control. 
 SECTION 11.08 New York Law to Govern. This Indenture, each Security and each Guarantee shall be
deemed to be a contract under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State. In respect of the Securities, the provisions of Articles
470-3 to 470-19 (inclusive) of the Luxembourg Law of 10 August 1915 on commercial companies, as amended, are expressly excluded. 

SECTION 11.09 Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but

 SECTION 11.10 Effect of Headings; Gender. The Article and Section headings
herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. The use of the masculine, feminine or neuter gender herein shall not limit in any way the applicability of any term or provision hereof. 

SECTION 11.11 Determination of Principal Amount. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of
outstanding Securities of any Series have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, or whether sufficient funds are available for redemption or for any other purpose, the principal amount of an
Original Issue Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the
maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.01 and the principal amount of any Securities denominated in a Foreign Currency or ECU that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be determined by converting the Foreign Currency or the
Specified Amount of each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate as of the date of such determination. 

SECTION 11.12 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. Each of the parties hereto agree that any legal suit, action
or proceeding brought by any party to enforce any rights under or with respect to this Indenture, any Security, any Guarantee or any other document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby may be instituted in any state or federal court in

each such party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity, and any defense based on such immunity, in respect of its obligations under the above-referenced documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, to the extent permitted by law. The Issuer
hereby appoints the Parent’s Corporate Secretary at the Parent’s principal executive offices at 2000 North M-63, Benton Harbor, Michigan 49022, as its agent to receive service of process or other

 ARTICLE TWELVE. 

Redemption of Securities and Sinking Funds 

SECTION 12.01 Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to the Securities of any Series
which are redeemable before their maturity or to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a Series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for Securities of such Series. 

SECTION 12.02 Notice of Redemption; Partial Redemptions. Notice of redemption to the Holders of Securities of any Series
required to be redeemed or to be redeemed as a whole or in part at the option of the Issuer shall be given by giving notice of such redemption as provided in Section 11.04, at least 10 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption to such Holders of Securities of such Series. Failure to give notice by mail, or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security of a Series designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any other Security of such Series. 
 The notice of redemption to each such Holder shall specify the date
fixed for redemption, the redemption price, the Place or Places of Payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, and that, unless otherwise specified in such notice, Coupon Securities, if any, surrendered for
payment must be accompanied by all Coupons maturing subsequent to the redemption date, failing which the amount of any such missing Coupon or Coupons will be deducted from the sum due for payment, that such redemption is pursuant to the mandatory or
optional sinking fund, or both, if such be the case, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in such notice and that on and after said date interest thereon or on the portions thereof to be redeemed will
cease to accrue and that, if less than all of the Outstanding Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the identification and principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed. If less than all of the Securities of any Series are to be redeemed,
the notice of redemption shall specify the numbers of the Securities of such Series to be redeemed, and, if only Unregistered Securities of any Series are to be redeemed, and if such Unregistered Securities may be exchanged for Registered
Securities, the last date on which exchanges of Unregistered Securities for Registered Securities not subject to redemption may be made. In case any Security of a Series is to be redeemed in part, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of
the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that on and after the date fixed for redemption, upon surrender of such Security and any Coupons appertaining thereto, a new Security or Securities of such Series in principal amount equal
to the unredeemed portion thereof with appropriate Coupons will be issued. 
 The notice of redemption of Securities of any Series to be
redeemed at the option of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request, by the Trustee or Paying Agent in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. If such notice is given by the Issuer, the Issuer shall provide notice
of such redemption to the Trustee or Paying Agent at least 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. 

  
 75 

 Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, (a) in the case of Securities for which
a place of payment is located outside the United States of America, not later than the Business Day immediately prior to the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section, unless otherwise agreed by the
Issuer and the Trustee, and (b) in the case of all other Securities, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section, the Issuer will have on deposit
with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 3.04) an amount of money in the currency or currency unit in which the
Securities of such Series and any Coupons appertaining thereto are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03 and except as provided in Sections 2.12(b), (e) and (f) of this Indenture) sufficient to redeem on the
redemption date all the Securities of such Series so called for redemption at the appropriate redemption price, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. If less than all the Outstanding Securities of a Series are to be
redeemed, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee or Paying Agent at least 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. 

If less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select, in compliance with the requirements of the principal
securities exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed, such manner as it shall deem appropriate and fair, Securities of such Series to be redeemed in whole or in part and the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the
Securities of such Series selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities of such Series selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. However, if less than all the Securities of any Series with differing
issue dates, interest rates and stated maturities are to be redeemed, the Issuer in its sole discretion shall select the particular Securities to be redeemed and shall notify the Trustee in writing thereof at least 45 days prior to the relevant
redemption date. Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such Series or any multiple thereof. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all
provisions relating to the redemption of Securities of any Series shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed. 

SECTION 12.03 Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, the
Securities or portions of Securities specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, and on
and after said date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of such Securities at the redemption price, together with interest accrued to said date) interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease to
accrue and, except as provided in Sections 6.05 and 10.04, such Securities shall cease from and after the date fixed for redemption to be entitled to any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in
respect of such Securities except the right to receive the redemption price thereof and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a place of payment specified in said notice, said
Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption; provided that if for any Registered Securities the
date fixed for redemption is a regular interest payment date, payment of interest becoming due on such date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant record date subject to the terms and provisions of
Section 2.07 hereof. 

  
 76 

 If any Coupon Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant
Coupons maturing on or after the date fixed for redemption, such Security may be paid after deducting from the redemption price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing Coupons or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be
waived by the Issuer and the Trustee, if there be furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any
missing Coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the redemption price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; provided, however, that, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03,
interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency located outside of the United States. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid or duly
provided for, bear interest from the date fixed for redemption at the rate of interest borne by the Security. 
 Upon presentation of any
Security redeemed in part only and the Coupons appertaining thereto, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Security or Securities and the
Coupons appertaining thereto, of authorized denominations, in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented. 

SECTION 12.04 Exclusion of Certain Securities from Eligibility for Selection for Redemption. Securities shall be excluded
from eligibility for selection for redemption if they are identified by registration and certificate number in a written statement signed by an authorized officer of the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent at least 30 days prior to
the last date on which notice of redemption may be given as being owned of record and beneficially by, and not pledged or hypothecated by, either (a) the Issuer or (b) an entity specifically identified in such written statement as directly
or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer. 
 SECTION 12.05 Mandatory
and Optional Sinking Funds. The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any Series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such
minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of any Series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. The date on which a sinking fund payment is to be made is herein referred to as the “sinking fund
payment date”. 
 In lieu of making all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to any Series of Securities in
cash, the Issuer may at its option deliver to the Trustee Securities of such Series (together with the unmatured Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired (except upon redemption pursuant to the mandatory
sinking fund) by the Issuer or receive credit for Securities of such Series (not previously so 

  
 77 

 
credited) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired (except as aforesaid) by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.10, (b) receive credit for
optional sinking fund payments (not previously so credited) made pursuant to this Section, or (c) receive credit for Securities of such Series (not previously so credited) redeemed by the Issuer through any optional redemption provision
contained in the terms of such Series. Securities so delivered or credited shall be received or credited by the Trustee at the sinking fund redemption price specified in such Securities. 

On or before the sixtieth day next preceding each sinking fund payment date for any Series of Securities, the Issuer will deliver to the
Trustee a written statement (which need not contain the statements required by Section 11.05) signed by an authorized officer of the Issuer (a) specifying the portion of the mandatory sinking fund payment to be satisfied by payment of cash
in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series and Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of such Series and except as provided in
Section 2.12(b), (e) and (f) hereof), and the portion to be satisfied by delivery or credit of Securities of such Series, (b) stating that none of the Securities of such Series for which credit is sought has theretofore been so
credited, (c) stating that no defaults in the payment of interest or Events of Default with respect to such Series have occurred (which have not been waived or cured) and are continuing, (d) stating whether or not the Issuer intends to
exercise its right to make an optional sinking fund payment with respect to such Series and, if so, specifying the amount of such optional sinking fund payment which the Issuer intends to pay on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment
date and (e) specifying such sinking fund payment date. Any Securities of such Series to be credited and required to be delivered to the Trustee in order for the Issuer to be entitled to credit therefor as aforesaid which have not theretofore
been delivered to the Trustee shall be delivered for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.10 to the Trustee with such written statement (or reasonably promptly thereafter if acceptable to the Trustee). Such written statement shall be irrevocable
and upon its receipt by the Trustee the Issuer shall become unconditionally obligated to make all the cash payments or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the next succeeding sinking fund payment date. Failure of the Issuer, on or
before any such sixtieth day, to deliver such written statement and Securities specified in this paragraph, if any, shall not constitute a default but shall constitute, on and as of such date, the irrevocable election of the Issuer (i) that the
mandatory sinking fund payment for such Series due on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date shall be paid entirely in cash (in the currency or currency unit described above) without the option to deliver or credit Securities of such Series
in respect thereof and (ii) that the Issuer will make no optional sinking fund payment with respect to such Series as provided in this Section. 

If the sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional or both) to be made in cash (in the currency or currency unit described above)
on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments made in cash shall exceed $100,000, or the equivalent in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series are payable
(or a lesser sum if the Issuer shall so request) with respect to the Securities of any particular Series, such cash shall be applied on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date to the redemption of Securities of such Series at the sinking fund
redemption price together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption. If such amount shall be $100,000, or the equivalent in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of 

  
 78 

 
such Series are payable, or less and the Issuer makes no such request then it shall be carried over until a sum in excess of $100,000, or the equivalent in the currency or currency unit in which
the Securities of such Series are payable, is available. The Trustee shall select, in the manner provided in Section 12.02 and giving effect to any exclusions required pursuant to Section 12.04, for redemption on such sinking fund payment
date a sufficient principal amount of Securities of such Series to absorb said cash, as nearly as may be possible, and shall (if requested in writing by the Issuer) inform the Issuer of the serial numbers of the Securities of such Series (or
portions thereof) so selected. The Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer (or the Issuer, if it shall so notify the Trustee in writing) shall cause notice of redemption of the Securities of such Series to be given in substantially the
manner provided in Section 12.02 (and with the effect provided in Section 12.03) for the redemption of Securities of such Series at the option of the Issuer. The amount of any sinking fund payments not so applied or allocated to the
redemption of Securities of such Series shall be added to the next cash sinking fund payment for such Series and, together with such payment, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Any and all sinking fund moneys held on
the stated maturity date of the Securities of any particular Series (or earlier, if such maturity is accelerated), which are not held for the payment or redemption of particular Securities of such Series shall be applied, together with other moneys,
if necessary, sufficient for the purpose, to the payment of the principal of, and interest on, the Securities of such Series at maturity. 

Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03, (a) in the case of Securities for which a place of payment is located outside the
United States of America, not later than the Business Day immediately prior to the sinking fund payment date, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer and the Trustee, and (b) in the case of all other Securities, not later than 10:00 a.m., New
York City time, on the sinking fund payment date, the Issuer shall have paid to the Trustee in cash (in the currency or currency unit described in the third paragraph of this Section 12.05) or shall otherwise provide for the payment of all
principal and interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption on Securities to be redeemed on the next following sinking fund payment date. 

The Trustee shall not redeem or cause to be redeemed any Securities of a Series with sinking fund moneys or mail or publish any notice of
redemption of Securities for such Series by operation of the sinking fund during the continuance of a default in payment of interest on such Securities or of any Event of Default except that, where the mailing or publication of notice of redemption
of any Securities shall theretofore have been made, the Trustee shall redeem or cause to be redeemed such Securities, provided that it shall have received from the Issuer a sum sufficient for such redemption. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the
sinking fund for such Series at the time when any such default or Event of Default shall occur, and any moneys thereafter paid into the sinking fund, shall, during the continuance of such default or Event of Default, be deemed to have been collected
under Article Five and held for the payment of all such Securities. In case such Event of Default shall have been waived as provided in Section 5.10 or the default cured on or before the sixtieth day preceding the sinking fund payment date in
any year, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next succeeding sinking fund payment date in accordance with this Section to the redemption of such Securities. 

SECTION 12.06 Repayment at the Option of the Holders. Securities of any Series which are repayable at the option of the
Holders thereof before their stated maturity shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such Series. 

  
 79 

 The repayment of any principal amount of Securities pursuant to such option of the Holder to
require repayment of Securities before their stated maturity, for purposes of Section 10.01, shall not operate as a payment, redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the Issuer, at its
option, shall deliver or surrender the same to the Trustee with a directive that such Securities be cancelled. 
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN.

 Holders’ Meetings 

SECTION 13.01 Purposes of Meetings. A meeting of Holders of Securities of any or all Series may be called at any time and
from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Article Thirteen for any of the following purposes: 
 (a) to give any
notice to the Issuer, Parent or to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series, or to give any directions to the Trustee for such Series, or to consent to the waiving of any default hereunder and its consequences, or to take any other action
authorized to be taken by Holders pursuant to any of the provisions of Article Five; 
 (b) to remove the Trustee for such
Series and nominate a successor Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Article Six; 
 (c) to consent to the execution of an
indenture or indentures supplemental hereto pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.02; and 
 (d) to take any other
action authorized to be taken by or on behalf of the Holders of any specified aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any one or more or all Series, as the case may be, under any provision of this Indenture or under applicable law. 

SECTION 13.02 Call of Meetings by Trustee. The Trustee for the Securities of any Series may at any time call a meeting of
Holders of Securities of such Series to take any action specified in Section 13.01, to be held at such time and at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or such other Place of Payment as the Trustee for such Series shall
determine. Notice of every meeting of the Holders of Securities of any Series, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given to Holders of Securities of such
Series in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 11.04. Such notice shall be given not less than 20 nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for such meeting. 

SECTION 13.03 Call of Meetings by Issuer or Holders. In case at any time the Issuer, pursuant to a resolution of its Board
of Directors, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any or all Series, as the case may be, shall have requested the Trustee for such Series to call a meeting of Holders of Securities of any or
all Series, as the case may be, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee for such Series shall not have given the notice of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of
such request, then the Issuer or such Holders may determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or such other Place of Payment for such meeting and may call such meeting to take any action authorized in
Section 13.01, by giving notice thereof as provided in Section 13.02. 

  
 80 

 SECTION 13.04 Qualifications for Voting. To be entitled to vote at any meeting
of Holders, a person shall be (a) a Holder of one or more Securities with respect to which such meeting is being held or (b) a person appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy by such Holder. The only persons who shall be entitled to
be present or to speak at any meeting of Holders shall be the persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel and any representatives of the Trustee for the Securities of the Series with respect to which such meeting is being held and its
counsel and any representatives of the Issuer, Parent and their counsel. 
 SECTION 13.05 Regulations. Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee for the Securities of any series may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Holders of the Securities of such Series, in regard to proof of the holding of
Securities of such Series and of the appointment of proxies, and in regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters
concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall think fit. 
 The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman
of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the Issuer or by Holders of the Securities of such Series as provided in Section 13.03, in which case the Issuer or the Holders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like
manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by majority vote of the meeting. 

At any meeting each Holder of Securities with respect to which such meeting is being held or proxy therefor shall be entitled to one vote for
each $1,000 (or the equivalent in the currency or currency unit in which such Securities are denominated) principal amount (in the case of the Original Issue Discount Securities, such principal amount to be determined in accordance with the terms
thereof) of Securities held or represented by him. However, no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any such Security challenged as not Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of
the meeting shall have no right to vote other than by virtue of the Securities of such Series held by him or instruments in writing aforesaid duly designating him as the person to vote on behalf of other Holders of such Series. At any meeting of
Holders, the presence of persons holding or representing Securities with respect to which such meeting is being held in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to take action on the business for the transaction of which such meeting was called
shall constitute a quorum, but, if less than a quorum is present, the persons holding or representing a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Securities represented at the meeting may adjourn such meeting with the same effect, for all
intents and purposes, as though a quorum had been present. Any meeting of Holders of Securities with respect to which a meeting was duly called pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.02 or Section 13.03 may be adjourned from time to time
by a majority of such Holders present, whether or not constituting a quorum, and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice. 

  
 81 

 SECTION 13.06 Voting. The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of
Holders of Securities with respect to which such meeting is being held shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of such Holders or of their representatives by proxy and the serial number or numbers of the Securities
held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their
verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders shall be prepared by secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to such record the original reports
of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that such notice was given in the manner and to the
extent provided in Section 11.04. The record shall show the serial numbers of the Securities voting in favor of and against any resolution. The record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the
meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Issuer and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee. 
 Any
record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 
 SECTION 13.07 No Delay of Rights by
Meeting. Nothing in this Article Thirteen shall be deemed or construed to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Holders or any rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in
the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Securities of any Series. 

ARTICLE FOURTEEN. 

Guarantee 

SECTION 14.01 Guarantee. Parent hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely
as surety, to each Holder of the Securities of each Series and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption, repayment or otherwise, of the Obligations. Parent further agrees (to the extent
permitted by law) that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound under this Article 14 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. 

Parent waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest
for nonpayment. Parent waives notice of any default under the Securities or the Obligations. The obligations of Parent hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce
any right or remedy against the Issuer or any other person under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any
of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; or (e) any change in the ownership of the Issuer.

  
 82 

 Parent further agrees that the Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and
not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Obligations. 

The obligations of Parent hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than
payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Parent herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder to assert any
claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Securities or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by
any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Parent or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantee as a matter of law or equity. 

Parent further agrees that the Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment,
or any part thereof, of principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise. 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against Parent by virtue
hereof, upon the failure of the Issuer to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, Parent hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the
Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing
(but only to the extent not prohibited by law). 
 Parent further agrees, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may do so, that, as between
Parent, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any
stay, injunction or other prohibition under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law of any jurisdiction preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any such
declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by Parent for the purposes of this Guarantee. 

Parent also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing
any rights under this Section. 

  
 83 

 SECTION 14.02 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by
Parent hereunder, Parent shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Trustee or any Holder against the Issuer or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Trustee or any Holder for the payment of the
Obligations, nor shall Parent seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Issuer in respect of payments made by Parent hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Trustee and the Holders by Parent on account of the
Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to Parent on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by Parent in trust for the Trustee and the
Holders, segregated from other funds of Parent, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by Parent, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by Parent (duly indorsed by Parent to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the
Obligations. 
 SECTION 14.03 Consideration. Parent has received, or will receive, direct or indirect benefits from the
making of the Guarantee. 
 SECTION 14.04 Indemnity. As a separate and alternative stipulation, Parent unconditionally and
irrevocably agrees that any sum expressed to be payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Securities but which is for any reason (whether or not now known or becoming known to the Issuer, Parent, the Trustee or any Holder of any Security)
not recoverable from Parent on the basis of a guarantee will nevertheless be recoverable from it as if it were the sole principal debtor and will be paid by it to the Trustee on demand. This indemnity constitutes a separate and independent
obligation from the other obligations in this Indenture, gives rise to a separate and independent cause of action and will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Trustee or any Holder of any Security. 

SECTION 14.05 Assumption by Parent. (a) Parent may, without the consent of the Holders, assume all of the rights and
obligations of the Issuer hereunder with respect to a Series of Securities and under the Securities of such Series if, after giving effect to such assumption, no Event of Default or event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both,
would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon such an assumption, Parent shall execute a supplemental indenture evidencing its assumption of all such rights and obligations of the Issuer and the Issuer shall be
released from its liabilities hereunder and under such Securities as obligor on the Securities of such Series. 
 (b) Parent shall assume all
of the rights and obligations of the Issuer hereunder with respect to a Series of Securities and under the Securities of such Series if, upon a default by the Issuer in the due and punctual payment of the principal, sinking fund payment, if any,
premium, if any, or interest on such Securities, Parent is prevented by any court order or judicial proceeding from fulfilling its obligations under Section 14.01 with respect to such Series of Securities. Such assumption shall result in the
Securities of such Series becoming the direct obligations of Parent and shall be effected without the consent of the Holders of the Securities of any Series. Upon such an assumption, Parent shall execute a supplemental indenture evidencing its
assumption of all such rights and obligations of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall be released from its liabilities hereunder and under such Securities as obligor on the Securities of such Series. 

  
 84 

 SECTION 14.06 Execution of Notation of Guarantee. To evidence its Guarantee to the
Holders specified in Section 14.01, Parent hereby agrees to execute the notation of the Guarantee in substantially the form set forth in Section 2.02 to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Parent hereby
agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 14.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on any Security a notation of such Guarantee. Each such notation of Guarantee shall be signed on behalf of Parent
by any proper officer of Parent prior to the authentication of the Security on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Security by the Trustee, after the due authentication thereof by the Trustee hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of
the Guarantee on behalf of Parent. Such signatures upon the notation of Guarantee may be manual or facsimile signatures of any present or any future such officers. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such reproduction of any such
signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the Guarantee of any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. 

In case any such proper officer of Parent who shall have signed the notation of Guarantee shall cease to be such officer before the Security
on which such notation is endorsed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuer, such Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such notation of
Guarantee had not ceased to be such officer of Parent; and any notation of Guarantee may be signed on behalf of Parent by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such notation of Guarantee, shall be the proper officers of Parent,
although at the date of execution and delivery of this Indenture any such person was not such an officer. 

  
 85 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed, and their
respective corporate seals to be hereto affixed and attested, all as of the day and year first above written.
