THE SECURITIES

SECTION 2.1. Form and Dating.

The Securities and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication in respect thereof, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which Exhibit is part of this Indenture. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage (which do not adversely affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee). The Company shall approve the form of the Securities and any notation, legend or endorsement on them. Any such notations, legends or endorsements not contained in the form of Security attached as Exhibit A hereto shall be delivered in writing to the Trustee. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

The Securities shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000.00 in excess thereof.

The Company shall pay interest on the principal amount of the outstanding Securities at the rate of 4.0% per annum for the period ending June 15, 2022 and 5.0% per annum for the period ending June 15, 2023. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date, to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date to holders of record on the Regular Record Dates, commencing on December 15, 2021, until the principal of the Securities is paid or duly provided for. No interest shall be paid for accrued interest from the last Interest Payment Date, or if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date, if the Security is not held on the Regular Record Dates. Interest shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal or interest payable with respect to such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

The Holder may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, at the Holder’s option, at any time after September 15, 2021, and at a Redemption Price equal to the 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed. Notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) shall be delivered at least 60 days but not more than 90 days before the Redemption Date to the Company.

The Company may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, as set forth herein, at any time and from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities to the Redemption Date.

The terms and provisions contained in the forms of Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture and, to the extent applicable, the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of the forms of Securities conflict with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

SECTION 2.2. Execution and Authentication.

Two Officers shall sign, or one Officer shall sign and one Officer shall attest to, the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. The Securities may be in facsimile form.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security was an Officer at the time of such execution but no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless and the Company shall nevertheless be bound by the terms of the Securities and this Indenture.

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the Security in manual or facsimile form, but such signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

The Trustee shall authenticate the Securities for original issue in the aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million upon receipt of one or more written orders of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate. The Officers’ Certificate shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the Securities are to be authenticated. The aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding at any time may not exceed $100 million, except as provided in Section 2.7. Upon the written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities in substitution of Securities originally issued to reflect any name change of the Company.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. Unless otherwise provided in the appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company.

Securities shall be issuable without coupons in denominations of $1,000.00 and any integral multiple thereof.

SECTION 2.3. Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities may be served. The Company may act as Registrar or Paying Agent, except that, for the purposes of Articles III and VIII and as otherwise specified in the Indenture, neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company shall act as Paying Agent. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have one or more co-Registrars and one or more additional Paying Agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional Paying Agent. The Company hereby initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent, and the Trustee hereby initially agrees so to act. The Trustee may perform its Registrar and Paying Agent duties through one or more of its affiliates.

The Company shall enter into an appropriate written agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture, which agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such upon prompt written notice by the Company to the Trustee.

The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Securities Custodian with respect to the Global Securities.

The immunities, protections and exculpations available to the Trustee under this Indenture shall also be available to each Agent and the Securities Custodian, and the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture to compensate and indemnify the Trustee shall extend likewise to each Agent and Securities Custodian.

The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Securities.

SECTION 2.4. Paying Agent to Hold Assets in Trust.

The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that each Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders and the Trustee all assets held by the Paying Agent for the payment of any amounts due on the Securities (whether such assets have been delivered to it by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities), and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any Default in making any such payment. If either of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate such assets and hold them as a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders and the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to deliver all assets held by it to the Trustee and account for any assets disbursed and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to deliver all assets held by it to the Trustee and to account for any assets delivered to it. Upon delivery to the Trustee of all assets that shall have been delivered by the Company to the Paying Agent, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) shall have no further liability for such assets.

SECTION 2.5. Securityholder Lists.

The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at such times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee reasonably may require of the names and addresses of Holders.

SECTION 2.6. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Global Securities. So long as the Securities are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law or otherwise requested by the Company or any Holder, all Securities shall be represented by one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in any Global Security, which does not involve the issuance of a Security in certificated form, shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

At any time at the request of the beneficial owner of an interest in any Global Security to obtain a Security in certificated form, such beneficial owner shall be entitled to obtain a Security in certificated form upon written request to the Trustee in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Trustee and Depositary for the issuance thereof. Upon receipt of any such request, the Trustee will cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of the Global Security to be reduced by the principal amount of the Security issued in certificated form upon such request to such beneficial owner and, following such reduction, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to such beneficial owner (or its nominee) a Security or Securities in certificated form in the appropriate aggregate principal amount in the name of such beneficial owner (or its nominee) as the Holder thereof and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

Any transfer of a beneficial interest in the Global Security, or a Security in certificated form, which cannot be effected through book-entry settlement must be effected by the delivery to the transferee (or its nominee) of a Security or Securities in certificated form registered in the name of the transferee (or its nominee) on the books maintained by the Registrar in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth herein. With respect to any transfer of a beneficial interest in the Global Security, the Trustee will cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of the Global Security to be reduced by the principal amount of the respective beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred and, following such reduction, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and make available for delivery to the transferee (or such transferee’s nominee, as the case may be), a Security or Securities in certificated form (bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture) in the appropriate aggregate principal amount in the name of such transferee (or its nominee) as the Holder thereof may request.

With respect to the Global Security, the Company and the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the absolute owner of such Security for all purposes of this Indenture, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of such Global Security or to any direct or indirect participant of the Depositary. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Company nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of any Depositary or any other Person with respect to any ownership interest in the Global Security, (ii) the delivery to any Person, other than a Holder, of any notice with respect to the Global Security, including any notice of redemption or refunding, (iii) the selection of the particular Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed or refunded in the event of a partial redemption or refunding of the Global Security or (iv) the payment to any Person, other than a Holder, of any amount with respect to the principal of, Redemption Price ,or interest on a Global Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may recognize votes by, or on behalf of, the beneficial owners of any interest in such Global Security if such votes were made by beneficial owners of a related portion of the Securities when such votes are received in compliance with an omnibus proxy of the Depositary or otherwise pursuant to the rules and procedures of the Depositary, or other comparable evidence delivered to the Trustee by the Holder.

(b) Transfer. So long as the Securities are eligible for book-entry settlement, or unless otherwise required by law or otherwise requested by the Company or any Holder, upon any transfer of a Security in certificated form, and upon receipt of the Security or Securities in certificated form being so transferred, the Trustee shall make an endorsement on the Global Security to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities represented by the Global Security, and the Trustee shall cancel such Security or Securities in certificated form and cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of Securities represented by the Global Security to be increased accordingly; provided that the Trustee shall issue Securities in certificated form upon any transfer of a beneficial interest in the Global Security or the Securities to an Affiliate of the Company.

Any Global Security may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture as may be required by the Depositary or by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or as may be required to comply with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Securities may be listed or traded or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Securities are subject.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in the second paragraph of Section 2.6(a) and in this Section 2.6(b)), a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole or in part except by the Depositary to a nominee of 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 Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. ¹Initially, the Global Security shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Securities Custodian on behalf of Cede & Co.

The Trustee is hereby authorized and requested to execute and deliver a Letter of Representations to the Depositary and, in connection with any successor nominee for the Depositary or any successor Depositary, enter into comparable arrangements, and shall have the same rights with respect to its actions thereunder as it has with respect to its actions under this Indenture.

If at any time the Depositary for the Global Security notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Security, the Company may appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Security. If a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice, the Company will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate for the authentication and delivery of Securities, will authenticate and make available for delivery, Securities in certificated form, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Global Security, in exchange for the Global Security.

Securities in certificated form issued in exchange for all or a part of a Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instruction from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall make such Securities available for delivery in certificated form to the Person in whose names such Securities in certificated form are so registered.

At such time as all interests in a Global Security have been redeemed, canceled, exchanged for Securities in certificated form, or transferred to a transferee who receives Securities in certificated form, such Global Security shall, upon receipt thereof, be canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Securities in certificated form, redeemed or canceled, or transferred to a transferee who receives Securities in certificated form therefor or any Security in certificated form is exchanged or transferred for part of a Global Security, the principal amount of such Global Security shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Securities Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security, by the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase. In the event of any transfer of any beneficial interest between one Global Security and another in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions between the Depositary and the Trustee and the transfer restrictions required herein, the aggregate principal amount of each Global Security shall be appropriately increased or decreased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on each Global Security by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase.

(c) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Security. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Securities, redeemed or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities, redeemed or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global Security shall be reduced and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction.

(d) Obligations with respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Definitive Securities and Global Securities.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities and Global Securities at the Registrar’s or co-Registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessment, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax, assessment, or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges or transfers pursuant to Section 2.2 (fourth paragraph), 2.10, 3.7 or 9.5).

(iii) The Registrar or co-Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Definitive Security selected for redemption in whole or in part pursuant to Article III, except the unredeemed portion of any Definitive Security being redeemed in part.

Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities law.

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

The Trustee shall not have any responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of optional redemption) or the payment of any Securities.

SECTION 2.7. Replacement Securities.

If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder of a Security claims and submits an affidavit or other evidence, satisfactory to the Trustee, to the Trustee to the effect that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security (bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding) if the Trustee’s requirements are met. Such Holder must provide an indemnity bond or other indemnity, sufficient in the judgment of both the Company and the Trustee, to protect the Company, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company may charge such Holder for its reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses (including any fees and expenses of the Trustee in replacing a Security).

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion, may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and such new Security shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.7 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies of any Holder with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

SECTION 2.8. Outstanding Securities.

Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities that have been authenticated by the Trustee (including any Security represented by a Global Security) except those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those paid pursuant to Section 2.7, those reductions in the interest in a Global Security effected by the Trustee hereunder and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security, except as provided in Section 2.9.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7 (other than a mutilated Security surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code. A mutilated Security ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Security and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.7.

If on a Redemption Date the Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds Cash or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay all of the principal due on the Securities payable on that date in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof and payment of the Securities called for redemption is not otherwise prohibited pursuant to Article XI hereof or otherwise, then on and after that date such Securities cease to be outstanding.

SECTION 2.9. Treasury Securities.

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, amendment, supplement, waiver or consent, Securities owned by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded, except that, for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, amendment, supplement, waiver or consent, only Securities that a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be disregarded.

SECTION 2.10. Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of Definitive Securities in certificated form, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Company, authenticate and make available for delivery temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Definitive Securities in certificated form, but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined by the Company (but which do not adversely affect the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee).

Every such temporary Security shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Definitive Securities in certificated form. Without unreasonable delay the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Definitive Securities in certificated form (other than in the case of Securities in global form) and thereupon any or all temporary Securities (other than in the case of Securities in global form) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.2 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange for such temporary Securities an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities in certificated form. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor.

Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Definitive Securities in certificated form authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 2.11. Cancellation.

The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee, or at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company), and no one else, shall cancel and dispose of all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation in accordance with its customary practices, unless otherwise requested by the Company. Subject to Section 2.7, the Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that have been paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section 2.11, except as expressly permitted in the form of Securities and as permitted by this Indenture.

SECTION 2.12. CUSIP Numbers.

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

ARTICLE III.

REDEMPTION

SECTION 3.1. Right of Redemption.

Redemption of Securities, as permitted by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with Paragraph 5 of the Securities and this Article III. The Company has the right to redeem all or any part of the Securities at the Redemption Prices specified in Paragraph 5 of the Securities under the caption “Redemption”.

SECTION 3.2. Notices to Trustee.

If the Company elects to redeem Securities, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and whether it wants the Trustee to give notice of redemption to the Holders.

If the Company elects to reduce the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed by crediting against any such redemption Securities it has not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, it shall so notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the reduction and deliver such Securities with such notice.

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section 3.2 at least 30 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee). Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate stating that such redemption shall comply with the conditions therein. Any such notice may be canceled by the Company in writing no later than one Business Day prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereupon be void and of no effect.

SECTION 3.3. Selection of Securities to Be Redeemed.

If less than all of the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed on any Redemption Date, the Trustee shall select the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed by lot, on a pro rata basis or by such other method as the Trustee shall determine to be fair and appropriate and in such manner as complies with any applicable depositary, legal and stock exchange or automated quotation system requirements.

The Trustee shall make the selection from the Securities outstanding and not previously called for redemption and shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities or portions thereof selected for redemption and, in the case of any Security selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Securities in denominations of $1,000.00 may be redeemed only in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000.00 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000.00. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption.

The Trustee shall not be liable for the selection made in accordance with this Section 3.3.

SECTION 3.4. Notice of Redemption.

At least 30 days prior to a Redemption Date, the Company shall send a notice of redemption to the Trustee and each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed. At the Company’s written request in the form of an Officer’s Certificate at least five (5) Business Days prior to the giving of the notice of redemption, the Trustee shall give such notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. Each notice for redemption shall identify the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed and shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date;

(2) the Redemption Price;

(3) the name, address and telephone number of the Paying Agent;

(4) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the address specified in such notice to collect the Redemption Price;

(5) that, unless (a) the Company defaults in its obligation to deposit Cash with the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof or (b) such redemption payment is prohibited pursuant to Article X hereof or otherwise, the only remaining right of the Holders of such Securities is to receive payment of the Redemption Price upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Securities called for redemption and to be redeemed;

(6) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount, equal to $1000.00 or any integral multiple thereof, of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, and upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued;

(7) if less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such partial redemption;

(8) the CUSIP number of the Securities to be redeemed; and

(9) that the notice is being sent pursuant to this Section 3.4 and pursuant to the redemption provisions of Paragraph 5 of the Securities.

If notice is given as provided in this Section 3.4, the failure of any Holder to receive such notice or any defect in such notice shall not affect the redemption or the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Securities.

SECTION 3.5. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.4, Securities called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. Upon surrender to the Trustee or Paying Agent, such Securities called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price stated in the notice; provided, that if a Redemption Date is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

SECTION 3.6. Deposit of Redemption Price.

On or prior to 10:30 a.m. New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) Cash sufficient to pay all amounts due on all Securities to be redeemed on such Redemption Date (other than Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on that date that have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation). The Paying Agent shall, as soon as practicable, return to the Company any Cash so deposited which is not required for that purpose upon the written request of the Company.

SECTION 3.7. Securities Redeemed in Part.

Upon surrender of a Security that is to be redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certficate, shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder (at the Company’s expense), without service charge to the Holder, a new Security or Securities equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

ARTICLE IV.

COVENANTS

SECTION 4.1. Payment of Securities.

The Company shall pay the principal or Redemption Price of the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities. A payment of any amount due on the Securities shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds for the benefit of the Holders, on or before 10:00 a.m. New York City time on that date, Cash deposited and designated for and sufficient to pay the applicable amount.

SECTION 4.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 11.2 (the “Corporate Trust Office”) and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations and surrenders

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The Company hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office as such office.

SECTION 4.3. Corporate Existence.

Subject to Article V, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence in accordance with its organizational documents and the rights (charter and statutory) and corporate franchises of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any right or franchise, if (a) the Company shall, in good faith, reasonably determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and (b) the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 4.4. Compliance Certificate; Notice of Default.

(a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 30 days after the end of its Fiscal Year², beginning with Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2021,an Officers’ Certificate one of the signors of which shall be the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company complying with Section 314(a)(4) of the TIA and stating that a review of its activities during the preceding Fiscal Year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, whether or not the signer knows of any failure by the Company to comply with any conditions or covenants in this Indenture (determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice) and, if such signer does know of such a failure to comply, the certificate shall describe such failure with particularity. The Officers’ Certificate shall also notify the Trustee should the relevant Fiscal Year end on any date other than the current Fiscal Year end date.

(b) The Company shall, so long as any of the Securities are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, promptly upon becoming aware of any Default, Event of Default or fact which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default, Event of Default or fact and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default, any Event of Default or any such fact unless one of its Trust Officers receives written notice thereof from the Company or any of the Holders.

SECTION 4.5. Reports.

If the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee and to each Holder requesting such information in writing within 15 days after it is or would have been required to file such with the SEC, annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements substantially equivalent to financial statements that would have been included in reports filed with the SEC if the Company were subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, including, with respect to annual information only, a report thereon by the Company’s independent certified public accountants as such would be required in such reports to the SEC and, in each case, together with a management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations which would be so required.

If a Default shall occur and be continuing and the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof, the Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of such Default, give to the Holders notice of such Default; provided that the Trustee shall be protected in and not liable for withholding such notice if it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the best interest of the Holders, except in the case of a Default in the payment of any amounts due on the Securities.

SECTION 6.2. Acceleration of Maturity Date; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(3) or (4) relating to the Company) occurs and is continuing, then, and in every such case, unless the principal of all of the Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders) (an “Acceleration Notice”), may declare all of the principal of the Securities to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(3) or (4) relating to the Company occurs, all amounts due thereon will be immediately due and payable on all outstanding Securities without any declaration or other act on the part of Trustee or the Holders.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article VI, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind, on behalf of all Holders, any such declaration of acceleration if:

(1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee Cash sufficient to pay

(A)	the principal or Redemption Price of any Securities which would then be due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration,

(B)	all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal or Redemption Price of the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.12.

Notwithstanding the previous sentence of this Section 6.2, no waiver shall be effective against any Holder for any Default or Event of Default with respect to any obligation, covenant or provision which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby, unless all such affected Holders agree, in writing, to waive such Default or Event of Default. No such waiver shall cure or waive any subsequent Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 6.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company covenants that if an Event of Default in payment of any amount specified in clause (1) of Section 6.1 occurs and is continuing, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of collection, including compensation to, and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust in favor of the Holders, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any obligation, covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 6.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any overdue amounts) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise to take any and all actions permitted under the TIA, including

(1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(2) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same in accordance with Section 6.6;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.5. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust in favor of the Holders, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of compensation to, and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 6.6. Priorities.

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of the Securities, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the Trustee in payment of all amounts due pursuant to Section 7.7;

SECOND: To the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company to the extent provided in Article XI;

THIRD: To the Holders in payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal or Redemption Price of the Securities in respect or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for any and all of such amounts; and

FOURTH: The remainder, if any, shall be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 6.7. Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute or order or direct the Trustee to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, except for a default in the payment of principal or Redemption Price of the Securities, unless

(A)	such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(B)	the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of then outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(C)	such Holder or Holders have furnished to the Trustee (to the extent not prohibited by the TIA) security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred or reasonably probable to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(D)	the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and furnishing of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(E)	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of then outstanding Securities;

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

SECTION 6.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Payments.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture but subject to the provisions of Article X, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal or Redemption Price of such Security when due and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 6.9. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.7, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 6.10. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission by the Trustee or by any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy arising upon any Event of Default shall impair the exercise of any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 6.11. Control by Holders.

The Holder or Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, provided, that

(a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or expose the Trustee to personal liability,

(b) the Trustee shall not determine that the action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not taking part in such direction, and

SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Past Default.

The Holder or Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities may, on behalf of all Holders, prior to the declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the Securities, waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default in the payment of the principal or Redemption Price of any Security not yet cured.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair the exercise of any right arising therefrom.

SECTION 6.13. Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 6.13 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Company, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for enforcement of the payment of any amount due on any Security on or after the respective due date of such Security.

SECTION 6.14. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

SECTION 7.1. Duties of Trustee.

SECTION 7.6. Reports by Trustee to Holders.

Within 60 days after each December 15 beginning with the December 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall, if required by the TIA, mail to each Securityholder as their addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar, and a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a).

SECTION 7.7. Compensation and Indemnity.

The Company agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by it in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents, accountants, experts and counsel.

The Company hereby indemnifies, defends and holds the Trustee (in its capacity as Trustee and in any other capacity in which the Trustee is serving under this Indenture) and each of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, affiliates and agents harmless against, any and all suits, claims and demands (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other Person), costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel), losses or liabilities incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee to the extent such loss or liability was proven to have been caused by the Trustee’s negligence or bad faith.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the Company and the Holders agree that the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all assets held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except assets held in trust to pay any amounts due on particular Securities pursuant to Article III.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(3) and (4) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

The Company’s obligations under this Section 7.7 and any lien arising hereunder shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the discharge of the Company’s obligations pursuant to Article VIII of this Indenture and any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any Bankruptcy Law.

SECTION 7.8. Replacement of Trustee.

The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company in writing upon 30 days written notice to the Company.

The Company may remove the Trustee if:

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting under this Indenture.

If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by this Section 7.8 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation or removal, the resigning or removed Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. At any time within one year after a successor Trustee appointed by the Company takes office, the Holder or Holders of a majority in principal amount of then outstanding Securities may, with the Company’s consent, appoint a successor Trustee to replace such successor Trustee as so appointed by the Company.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the predecessor Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that and provided that all sums owing to the retiring Trustee provided for in Section 7.7 have been paid, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided in Section 7.7, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the Company or any Holder or Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of then outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder or Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of then outstanding Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.9. Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person without any further act shall, if such resulting, surviving or transferee corporation is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee has itself authenticated such Securities.

SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification.

The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a)(1), (2) and (5). The Trustee combined with its immediate parent corporation shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b).

SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

ARTICLE VIII.

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

SECTION 8.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

The Company may terminate its obligations under this Indenture (subject to the provisions of this Article VIII) when it shall have delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities theretofore authenticated (other than any Securities which shall have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Article II hereof) and the following conditions shall be satisfied:

(1) The Company has paid all sums payable under the Indenture; and

ARTICLE IX.

Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, the Holder or Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Securities may, in writing, waive compliance by the Company with any provisions of this Indenture or the Securities. Notwithstanding any of the above, however, no such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver shall, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby:

(a) change the Stated Maturity of any Security or reduce the principal amount or Redemption Price thereof or the rate (or extend the time for payment) or change the place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the due date thereof, or alter the terms of this Indenture regarding redemption provisions in a manner adverse to the Holders, or modify the subordination provisions in a manner adverse to the Holders;

(b) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver provided for in this Indenture;

(c) provide that other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or waived without consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.2 or Section 9.4 becomes effective, it shall bind each Holder.

In connection with any amendment, supplement or waiver under this Article IX, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, offer to any Holder who consents to such amendment, supplement or waiver, or (at the option of the Company) to all Holders, consideration for consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.3. Compliance with TIA.

Every amendment, waiver or supplement of this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect.

SECTION 9.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment, waiver or supplement becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of his Security by written notice to the Company or the Person designated by the Company as the Person to whom consents should be sent if such revocation is received by the Company or such Person before the date on which the Trustee receives an Officers’ Certificate certifying that the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to the amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver, which record date shall be the date so fixed by the Company. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date, and only those Persons (or their duly designated proxies), shall be entitled to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder, unless it makes a change described in any clauses (a) through (c) of Section 9.2, in which case, the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security; provided, that any such waiver shall not impair or affect the right of any Holder to receive payment of any amount due on a Security, on or after the respective dates set for such amounts to become due and payable as then expressed in such Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates.

SECTION 9.5. Notation on or Exchange of Securities.

If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver such Security to the Trustee or require the Holder to put an appropriate notation on the Security. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Any failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 9.6. Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc.

The Trustee shall execute any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX; provided, that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, protections, benefits, privileges or immunities under this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent have been satisfied.

ARTICLE X.

SUBORDINATION

SECTION 10.1. Securities Subordinated to Senior Indebtedness.

The Company and each Holder, by its acceptance of Securities, agree that (a) the payment of the principal of the Securities and (b) interest on the Securities and any other payment in respect of the Securities, including on account of the acquisition or redemption of the Securities by the Company are subordinated, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article X, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, and that these subordination provisions are for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

This Article X shall constitute a continuing offer to all Persons who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligees hereunder and any one or more of them may enforce such provisions.

SECTION 10.2. No Payment on Securities in Certain Circumstances.

(a) No payment may be made by the Company on account of the principal or interest of, or to acquire any of the Securities, for cash or property, or on account of the redemption provisions of the Securities, (i) upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company by lapse of time, acceleration (unless waived) or otherwise, unless and until all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Senior Indebtedness and all other Senior Indebtedness are first paid in full (or such payment is duly provided for), or (ii) in the event of default in the payment of any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Senior Indebtedness of the Company when it becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise (a “Payment Default”), unless and until such Payment Default has been cured or waived or otherwise has ceased to exist.

(b) Upon (i) the happening of an event of default (other than a Payment Default) that permits, or would permit, with (w) the passage of time, (x) the giving of notice, (y) the making of any payment in respect of the Securities then required to be made, or (z) any combination thereof (collectively, a “Non-Payment Default”), the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness or their representative immediately to accelerate the maturity of any Designated Senior Indebtedness and (ii) written notice of such Non-Payment Default given to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of the Designated Senior Indebtedness or their representative (a “Payment Blockage Notice”), then, unless and until such Non-Payment Default has been cured or waived or otherwise has ceased to exist, no payment (by setoff or otherwise) may be made by or on behalf of the Company on account of the principal of the Securities, or to acquire or repurchase any of the Securities for cash or property, or on account of the redemption provisions of the Securities, in any such case other than payments made with Junior Securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless (i) the Designated Senior Indebtedness in respect of which such Non-Payment Default exists has been declared due and payable in its entirety within 179 days after the Payment Blockage Notice is delivered as set forth above (the “Payment Blockage Period”), and (ii) such declaration has not been rescinded or waived, at the end of the Payment Blockage Period, the Company shall be required to pay all sums not paid to the Holders of the Securities during the Payment Blockage Period due to the foregoing prohibitions and to resume all other payments as and when due on the Securities. Not more than one Payment Blockage Notice may be given in any 365-day period, irrespective of the number of defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness during such period. In no event, however, may the total number of days during which any Payment Blockage Period or Payment Blockage Periods are in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 365-day period.

(c) In furtherance of the provisions of Section 10.1, in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders at a time when such payment or distribution is prohibited by the provisions of this Section 10.2, then such payment or distribution (subject to the provisions of Section 10.7) shall be received and held in trust by the Trustee or such Holder for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and shall be paid or delivered by the Trustee or such Holders, as the case may be, to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company remaining unpaid or unprovided for or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness of the Company may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Indebtedness of the Company held or represented by each, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay or provide for the payment of all such Senior Indebtedness in full after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution of, or provision therefor, to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

SECTION 10.3. Securities Subordinated to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization.

Upon any distribution of assets of the Company upon any dissolution, winding up, total or partial liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or a similar proceeding or upon assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets or liabilities:

(a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be entitled to receive payments in full (or have such payment duly provided for) of all Senior Indebtedness before the Holders are entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of the Securities (other than Junior Securities);

(b) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than Junior Securities) to which the Holders or the Trustee on behalf of the Holders would be entitled (by setoff or otherwise), except for the provisions of this Article X, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such a payment or distribution directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company or their representative to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all such Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (other than Junior Securities), shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders or any Paying Agent (or, if the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, money for any such payment or distribution shall be segregated or held in trust) on account of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness of the Company is paid in full, such payment or distribution (subject to the provisions of Section 10.7) shall be received and held in trust by the Trustee or such Holder or Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, or their respective representative, ratably according to the respective amounts of such Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payments as provided herein of all such Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after giving effect to all concurrent payments and distributions and all provisions therefor to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, but only to the extent that as to any holder of such Senior Indebtedness, as promptly as practical following notice from the Trustee to the holders of a majority in outstanding principal amount of such Senior Indebtedness that such prohibited payment has been received by the Trustee, Holder(s) or Paying Agent (or has been segregated as provided above), such holder (or a representative therefor) notifies the Trustee of the amounts then due and owing on such Senior Indebtedness, if any, held by such holder and only the amounts specified in such notices to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

SECTION 10.4. Securityholders to Be Subrogated to Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company as provided herein, the Holders of Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Securities shall be paid in full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no such payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by the Company, or by or on behalf of the Holders by virtue of this Article X, which otherwise would have been made to the Holders shall, as between the Company and the Holders, be deemed to be payment by the Company or on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article X are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

If any payment or distribution to which the Holders would otherwise have been entitled but for the provisions of this Article X shall have been applied, pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, to the payment of amounts payable under Senior Indebtedness of the Company, then the Holders shall be entitled to receive from the holders of such Senior Indebtedness any payments or distributions received by such holders of Senior Indebtedness in excess of the amount sufficient to pay all amounts payable under or in respect of such Senior Indebtedness in full.

SECTION 10.5. Obligations of the Company Unconditional.

Nothing contained in this Article X or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair as between the Company and the Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal, interest, or Redemption Price of the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article X, of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article X or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities, upon any distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article X, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article X so long as such court has been apprised of the provisions of, or the order, decree or certificate makes reference to, the provisions of this Article X. Nothing in this Article X shall apply to the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 6.6 and 7.7.

SECTION 10.6. Trustee Entitled to Assume Payments Not Prohibited in Absence of Notice.

The Trustee shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall have received, no later than one Business Day prior to such payment (or such other period as may be required hereunder), written notice thereof in the manner required under Section 11.2 from the Company or from one or more holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any representative therefor and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, shall be entitled in all respects conclusively to assume that no such facts exist.

SECTION 10.7. Application by Trustee of Assets Deposited with It.

Amounts deposited in trust with the Trustee pursuant to and in accordance with this Indenture shall be for the sole benefit of Securityholders and, to the extent allocated for the payment of Securities, shall not be subject to the subordination provisions of this Article X. Otherwise, any deposit of assets with the Trustee or the Agent (whether or not in trust) for the payment of any Securities shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4; provided that, if prior to one Business Day preceding the date on which by the terms of this Indenture any such assets may become distributable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of any amount due on any Security) the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall not have received with respect to such assets the written notice provided for in Section 10.6, then the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall have full power and authority to receive such assets and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it on or after such date.

SECTION 10.8. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of the Company or Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination provisions contained in this Article X shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of Senior Indebtedness may extend, renew, modify or amend the terms of the Senior Indebtedness or any security therefor and release, sell or exchange such security and otherwise deal freely with the Company, all without affecting the liabilities and obligations of the parties to this Indenture or the Holders.

SECTION 10.9. Securityholders Authorize Trustee to Effectuate Subordination of Securities.

Each Holder of the Securities by his acceptance thereof authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provisions contained in this Article X and to protect the rights of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for such purpose, including, in the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors of the Company), the immediate filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of his Securities in the form required in said proceedings and cause said claim to be approved. If the Trustee does not file a proper claim or proof of debt in the form required in such proceeding prior to 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, then the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representative are or is hereby authorized to have the right to file and are or is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of said Securities. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee or the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee or the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 10.10. Right of Trustee to Hold Senior Indebtedness.

The Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights set forth in this Article X in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

SECTION 10.11. Article X Not to Prevent Events of Default.

The failure to make any payment due on the Securities by reason of any provision of this Article X shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.1 or in any way prevent the Holders from exercising any right hereunder other than the right to receive payment on the Securities.

SECTION 10.12. No Fiduciary Duty of Trustee to Holders of Senior Indebtedness.

The Trustee shall not owe any duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and shall not be liable to any such holders (other than for its willful misconduct or negligence). With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or observe only such of its covenants or obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article and no implied covenants or obligations with respect holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. Nothing in this Section 10.12 shall affect the obligation of any other such Person to hold such payment for the benefit of, and to pay such payment over to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

ARTICLE XI.

Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date, to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date to Holders of record on the Regular Record Dates, commencing on December 15, 2021, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for.

Interest shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal or interest payable with respect to such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company shall at all times appoint and maintain a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) authorized by the Company to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities on behalf of the Company and having an office or agency in New York, New York (the “Place of Payment”) where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment and where notices, designations or requests with respect to the Securities may be served. The Company has initially appointed the Trustee to act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders of the Securities.

4. Put Feature. The Securityholder may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, at the Securityholder’s option, at any time after September 15, 2021 and at a Redemption Price equal to the 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed.

Notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) shall be delivered at least 60 days but not more than 90 days before the Redemption Date to the Company.

5. Indenture. The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities are referred to the Indenture and said Act for a statement of them. The Securities are general unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company limited in aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000.

6. Redemption. The Securities may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the option of the Company, at 100% of the principal amount (the “Redemption Price”).

Any such redemption will comply with Article III of the Indenture.

7. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days prior to the Redemption Date to the Holder of each Security to be redeemed at such Holder’s last address as then shown upon the registry books of the Registrar. Securities may be redeemed in part in multiples of $1,000.00 only.

Except as set forth in the Indenture, from and after any Redemption Date, if moneys for the redemption of the Securities called for redemption shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent on such Redemption Date and payment of the Securities called for redemption is not prohibited under Article X of the Indenture, the only right of the Holders of such Securities will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price on any Securities called for redemption.

8. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Securities are without coupons, in denominations of $1,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000.00. A Holder may register the transfer of, or exchange, Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption.

9. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

10. Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of any amounts due on a Security remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent(s) will pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent(s) with respect to such money shall cease and the registered holder shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment thereof.

11. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision may be waived, with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security.

12. Ranking. Payment of principal on the Securities is subordinated, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness.

13. Successors. When a successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from those obligations.

14. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization), then in every such case, unless the principal of all of the Securities shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of Securities then outstanding may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default in payment of principal), if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

15. Trustee Dealings with the Company. The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

16. No Recourse Against Others. No stockholder, director, officer or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any successor corporation shall have any personal liability in respect of the obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder, director, officer or employee. Each Holder of a Security by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

17. Authentication. This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee or authenticating agent signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security.

18. Abbreviations and Defined Terms. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Security or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

19. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company will cause CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities as a convenience to the Holders of the Securities. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Securities and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

20. Governing Law. The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, as applied to contracts made and performed within the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.
