Section 1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings given them in the Base Indenture, provided that references to “this Indenture”, “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of a similar import in the Base Indenture shall be deemed to be a reference to the Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by this Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture. Any references to “Article” or “Section” herein shall be a reference to an article or section of this Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture unless expressly specified otherwise.

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of
the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than the Company and its Subsidiaries; (2) the approval by the holders of the Company’s common stock of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company (whether or not otherwise in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture); (3) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the then outstanding number of shares of the Company’s voting stock; or (4) the Company consolidates or merges with or into any entity, pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or such other entity is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property (except when voting stock of the Company constitutes, or is converted into, or exchanged for, at least a majority of the voting stock of the surviving person).
“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

(i) | the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or |

“Rating Agencies” means each of Fitch, Xxxxx’x and S&P, so long as such entity makes a rating of the Notes publicly available; provided, however, if any of Fitch, Xxxxx’x or S&P ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the control of the Company, the Company shall be allowed to designate a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-l(e)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act (as certified by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) as a replacement agency for the agency that ceased to make such a rating publicly available. For the avoidance of doubt, failure by the Company to pay rating agency fees to make a rating of the Notes shall not be a “reason outside of the control of the Company” for the purposes of the preceding sentence.
“Reference Treasury Dealers” means each of: (i) Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC (or their respective successors); (ii) a primary U.S. government securities dealer (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) selected by each of MUFG Securities Americas Inc. and U.S. Bancorp Investments Inc.

- 3 -
week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity, computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue, expressed as a percentage of its principal amount, equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the Redemption Date.
