Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes (a) The Global Notes initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of such Depository, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depository and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 2.17 hereof. Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”), and any other Person who holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member (an “Indirect Participant”), shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or under the Global Note, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of the Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members or Indirect Participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder. (b) A Global Note may not be transferred or exchanged for another Note other than as provided in Section 2.16(f). Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Certificated Notes in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository and the provisions of Section 2.16 hereof, but only if (i) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for any Global Note or the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a qualified successor Depository is not appointed by the Company within 120 days of such notice, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a written request from the Depository to issue Certificated Notes. In any such case, the Company will notify the Trustee in writing that, upon surrender by such Agent Members and Indirect Participants of their interests in such Global Note, Certificated Notes will be issued to each Person that such Agent Members and Indirect Participants and the Depository identify as being the beneficial owner of the related Notes pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.15. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 of this Indenture. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.15 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 of this Indenture, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Certificated Note. (c) In connection with the exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) and (ii), the Global Notes shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation and pursuant to paragraph (b) the Trustee shall cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Note to be reduced accordingly, and in each case the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an authentication order from the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate, authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in the Global Notes, an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes of authorized denominations. (d) Any Certificated Note constituting a Restricted Security delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.16 hereof, bear the Private Placement Legend. (e) The Holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Indirect Participants, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.
