Upon the receipt by the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, of (A) instructions from the Depository directing the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, to cause to be credited a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note to be exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such owner’s Notes held through a Rule 144A Global Note, to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, and (B) a certificate (each, a “Rule 144A Note Transfer Certificate”) in the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto given by the transferee of such beneficial interest, then the Indenture Trustee will reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note and increase the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Note for the related Series and/or Class by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note for the related Series and/or Class to be transferred and the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with such reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note for the related Series and/or Class equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note for the related Series and/or Class.

Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.

Simultaneously with the authentication of Unlegended Regulation S Global Notes, the Trustee shall cancel such Legended Regulation S Global Note. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.
