Prepayment of the Notes In addition to the payment of the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes at the final maturity thereof, the Company will make required, and may make optional, prepayments in respect of the Notes as hereinafter provided.
Form of the Notes The Notes shall each be issued in the form of a Global Note, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Authenticating Agent, which shall be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary or its nominee, as common depositary for, and in respect of interests held through, Euroclear and Clearstream, and registered in the name of such common depositary or its nominee for the accounts of Euroclear and Clearstream. The 2025 Notes and the Series Trustee’s and Authenticating Agent’s Certification of Authentication in respect thereof shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and the 2029 Notes and the Series Trustee’s and Authenticating Agent’s Certification of Authentication in respect thereof shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. So long as Euroclear or Clearstream or their nominee or the Depositary or its nominee is the Holder of the Global Notes, Euroclear, Clearstream, the Depositary or their respective nominees, as the case may be, shall be considered the sole owner or Holder of the Notes represented by such Global Notes for all purposes under the Indenture and the Notes. Except as set forth in Sections 2.03(d) and 2.04(d) hereof, the Global Notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective nominees only through records maintained by Clearstream and Euroclear (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or Persons that hold interests through participants (with respect to beneficial interests of beneficial owners), and owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not be entitled to have the Notes registered in their names and will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in definitive form. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Global Notes will be made to Euroclear, Clearstream, such nominee or such Depositary, as the case may be, as Holder thereof. None of the Issuer, the Series Trustee, any underwriter or any affiliate of any of the above or any Person by whom any of the above is “controlled,” as such term is defined in the Securities Act, will have any responsibility or liability for any records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. The terms and provisions contained in the form of Global Notes attached hereto as Exhibits A and B shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this First Supplemental Indenture and the Issuer, by its execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture, expressly agrees to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereto. Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends and endorsements as the officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture (and which do not affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Series Trustee), or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed. For the purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture only, the Global Security Legend for the Notes shall be the legend set forth at the beginning of the form of Global Notes attached hereto as Exhibits A and B, and such legend shall apply in lieu of the legend set forth in Section 2.4 of the Original Indenture.

Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
