All Securities of any one Series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Indenture, if so provided by or pursuant to the Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture referred to above, and the authorized principal amount of any Series may not be increased to provide for issuances of additional Securities of such Series, unless otherwise provided in such Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.3 Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture.

The Trustee shall at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Securities for original issue in the principal amount provided in the Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture, upon receipt by the Trustee of a Company Order. Such Company Order may authorize authentication and delivery pursuant to oral or electronic instructions from the Company or its duly authorized agent or agents, which oral instructions shall be promptly confirmed in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication unless otherwise provided by a Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture.

The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series established pursuant to Section 2.2(c), except as provided in Section 2.8.

Prior to the issuance of Securities of any Series, the Trustee shall have received and (subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.2) shall be fully protected in relying on: (a) the Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture establishing the form of the Securities of such Series or of Securities within such Series and the terms of the Securities of such Series or of Securities within such Series; (b) an Officers’ Certificate complying with Section 10.4; and (c) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 10.4.

The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities of such Series if (a) the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not be taken lawfully or (b) the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a trust committee of directors or vice-presidents shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any then outstanding Securities of such Series.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. 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 or an Affiliate of the Company.

Section 2.4 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain, with respect to the Securities of each Series, at the place or places established with respect to Securities of such Series pursuant to Section 2.2(f), an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented or surrendered for payment (“Paying Agent”), where Securities of such Series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture may be served (“Service Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to the Securities of each Series and to their transfer and exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address, and any change in the name or address, of each Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the name and address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more co-registrars, additional paying agents or additional service agents and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligations to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and Service Agent in each place so specified pursuant to Section 2.2 for Securities of any Series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the name or address of any such co-registrar, additional paying agent or additional service agent. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar; the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent; and the term “Service Agent” includes any additional service agent.

The Company hereby appoints the Trustee the initial Registrar, Paying Agent and Service Agent for each Series unless another Registrar, Paying Agent or Service Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of such Series are first issued.

Section 2.5 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of Holders of the Securities of any Series, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities of such Series, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of the Securities of any Series all money held by it as Paying Agent.

Section 2.6 Holder 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 of the Securities of each Series and shall otherwise comply with Section 312(a) of the TIA. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten days before each interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list, in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Holders of the Securities of each Series.

Section 2.7 Transfer and Exchange. Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.6 or 9.6).

Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

Section 2.8 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the jurisdiction in which the Company is organized), the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

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 the issuance of any new Security under this Section 2.8, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Security of any Series issued pursuant to this Section 2.8 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of such Series duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.8 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

Section 2.9 Outstanding Securities. The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it pursuant to Section 2.12, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section 2.9 as not outstanding.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.8, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser.

If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on the Maturity of Securities of a Series money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date the Securities of such Series cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.

A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security.

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the principal amount of a Discount Security that shall be deemed to be outstanding for such purposes shall be the amount of the principal thereof that would be due and payable as of the date of such determination upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.2.

Section 2.10 Treasury Securities. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Company shall be disregarded, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities of a Series that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.11 Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities upon a Company Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee upon request shall authenticate definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, temporary securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive Securities.

Section 2.12 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 registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with its customary procedures and, if requested in writing by the Company, deliver such canceled Securities to the Company or as it otherwise directs; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to destroy Securities. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

Section 2.13 Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Securities of any Series, it shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders of the Securities of such Series on a subsequent special record date. The Company shall fix the record date and payment date. At least ten days before the record date, the Company shall mail to the Trustee and to each Holder of such Series a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid. The Company may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner.

Section 2.14 Global Securities.

(a) Terms of Securities. A Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture shall establish whether the Securities of a Series shall be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities and the Depository for such Global Security or Securities.

(b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.7, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.7 for Securities registered in the names of Holders other than the Depository therefor or its nominee only if (i) such Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable

15 to continue as Depository for such Global Security or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Company fails to appoint a successor Depository registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days of such event, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security shall have happened and be continuing. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depository shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms. Except as provided in this Section 2.14(b), a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository with respect to such Global Security to a nominee of such Depository, by a nominee of such Depository to such Depository or another nominee of such Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such a successor Depository.

(c) Legend. Any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

“This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such a successor Depository.”

(d) Acts of Holders. The Depository, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action that a Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture.

(e) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.2, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof.

(f) Consents, Declaration and Directions. Except as provided in Section 2.14(e), the Company, the Trustee and any Agent shall treat a Person as the Holder of such principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series represented by a Global Security as shall be specified in a written statement of the Depository with respect to such Global Security, for purposes of obtaining any consents, declarations, waivers or directions required to be given by the Holders pursuant to this Indenture.

16

Section 2.15 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, however, 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 elements of identification printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in “CUSIP” numbers of which the Company becomes aware.

ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION

Section 3.1 Notice to Trustee. The Company may, with respect to the Securities of any Series, reserve the right to redeem and pay the Securities of such Series or may covenant to redeem and pay the Securities of such Series or any part thereof prior to the Stated Maturity thereof at such time and on such terms as provided for in the Securities of such Series. If the Securities of any Series are redeemable and the Company wants or is obligated to redeem prior to the Stated Maturity thereof all or part of the Securities of such Series pursuant to the terms of the Securities of such Series, it shall notify the Trustee of the date of such redemption and the principal amount of the Securities of such Series to be redeemed. The Company shall give the notice at least 45 days before the date of such redemption (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Trustee).

Section 3.2 Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. Unless otherwise indicated for the Securities of a particular Series by a Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture, if less than all the Securities of a Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities of such Series to be redeemed in any manner that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall make the selection from Securities of such Series outstanding not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities of such Series that have denominations larger than $1,000. Securities of such Series and portions of them it selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 or, if the Securities of such Series are issuable in other denominations pursuant to Section 2.2(j), the minimum principal denomination for the Securities of such Series and integral multiples thereof. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities of a Series called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities of such Series called for redemption.

Section 3.3 Notice of Redemption. Unless otherwise indicated for a particular Series by Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before any date of redemption of the Securities of any Series, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed and if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish on one occasion a notice in an Authorized Newspaper.

The notice shall identify the Securities of such Series to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the date of such redemption;

(b) the redemption price;

(c) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(d) that Securities of such Series called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(e) that interest on Securities of such Series called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the date of such redemption;

(f) the CUSIP number, if any; and

(g) any other information as may be required by the terms of the particular Series or the Securities of a Series being redeemed.

Subject to Section 3.1, at the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense.

Section 3.4 Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed or published as provided in Section 3.3, Securities of a Series called for redemption become due and payable on the date of such redemption and at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price plus accrued interest to the date of such redemption; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the date of such redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities (or one or more predecessor Securities) registered at the close of business on the relevant record date therefor according to their terms and the terms of this Indenture.

Section 3.5 Deposit of Redemption Price. On or before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of such redemption, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed on that date.

Section 3.6 Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder a new Security of the same Series and the same maturity equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

(a) So long as any of the Securities of any Series are outstanding (other than Subordinated Securities), the Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, issue, incur, create, assume or guarantee any Indebtedness secured by a mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien, charge or other encumbrance upon any Principal Property or upon any shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary (a “Mortgage”), whether such Principal Property, shares or Indebtedness are now existing or owned or hereafter created or acquired, unless prior to or at the same time the Securities of such Series are equally and ratably secured with or, at the option of the Company, prior to such secured Indebtedness; provided, however, that this Section 4.2 shall not apply to:

(i) Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness or other assets of any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, provided that such Mortgage was not incurred in anticipation of such corporation becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;

(ii) Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness existing at the time of acquisition by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (which may include property previously leased by the Company and leasehold interests on the property, provided that the lease terminates prior to or upon the acquisition) or Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of the property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness, or Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 270 days after, the latest of the acquisition or, in the case of property, the completion of construction, the completion of improvements or the beginning of substantial commercial operation of such property for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the property, the construction or the making of the improvements;

19 (vi) Mortgages in favor of the United States of America or any state, territory or possession thereof (or the District of Columbia) to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of constructing or improving the property subject to such Mortgages;

(vii) Mortgages created in connection with a project financed with, and created to secure, a Nonrecourse Obligation;

(viii) Mortgages securing all of the Securities of such Series; or

(ix) extensions, renewals or replacements of any Mortgage referred to in clauses (i) through (viii) above without increase of the principal of the Indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; provided, however, that any Mortgages permitted by any of clauses (i) through (viii) above shall not extend to or cover any property of the Company or that of any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, other than the property specified in these clauses and improvements to this property.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.2(a), the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary, or any of them, may issue, incur, create, assume or guarantee Indebtedness secured by a Mortgage without equally and ratably securing the Securities of any Series then outstanding, provided that at the time of such issuance, incurrence, creation, assumption or guarantee, after giving effect thereto and to the retirement of any Indebtedness that is concurrently being retired, the aggregate amount of all outstanding Indebtedness secured by Mortgages (excluding Mortgages permitted under clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 4.2(a)) does not at such time exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Assets.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Mortgage securing the Securities granted pursuant to this covenant shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release by all holders of the Indebtedness secured by the Mortgage giving rise to the Mortgage securing the Securities (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Indebtedness).

Section 4.3 Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions.

(a) So long as any of the Securities are outstanding (other than Subordinated Securities), the Company will not itself, and it will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement relating to property now owned or hereafter acquired whereby either the Company transfers, or any Restricted Subsidiary transfers, such property to a Person and either the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary leases it back from such Person (a “Sale/Leaseback Transaction”) with respect to any Principal Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, unless:

20

(i) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would, at the time of entering into such arrangement, be able to incur Indebtedness secured by a Mortgage on the Principal Property involved in the transaction at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale/Leaseback Transaction, without equally and ratably securing the Securities of such Series pursuant to Section 4.2; or

(ii) the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Property to be leased are at least equal to such Principal Property’s fair market value, as determined by the Board of Directors, and the proceeds are applied within 180 days of the effective date of the Sale/Leaseback Transaction to the purchase, construction, development or acquisition of assets or to the repayment of Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary.

(c) Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in this Section 4.3, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of them, may enter into a Sale/Leaseback Transaction; provided that at the time of such transaction, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all Attributable Debt with respect to Sale/Leaseback Transactions existing at such time that could not have been entered into except for the provisions of this Section 4.3(c), together with the aggregate amount of all outstanding Indebtedness secured by Mortgages pursuant to Section 4.2(a), does not at such time exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Assets.

(d) A Sale/Leaseback Transaction shall not be deemed to result in the creation of a Mortgage.

Section 4.4 Commission Reports.

The Company shall, so long as any of the Securities are outstanding (other than Subordinated Securities):

(a) file with the Trustee (electronically or in hard copy), within 15 days after the Company files the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or, if the Company is not required to file information,

21 documents or reports pursuant to either of such Sections, then the Company shall file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports that may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act in respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations; notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Trustee shall have no duty to review such documents for the purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture;

(b) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations; and

The filing of such information, documents and reports with the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such information, documents and reports shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

Section 4.5 Compliance Certificate. The Company shall, so long as any of the Securities are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an Officers’ Certificate stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder), and if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, specifying all such Defaults or Events of Default and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge.

The Company shall, so long as any of the Securities are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

The term “Event of Default,” wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of any Series, means any one of the following events, unless in the Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture establishing the Securities of such Series, it is provided that the Securities of such Series shall not have the benefit of such Event of Default:

(a) default in the payment of any interest on any Security of such Series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or

(b) default in the payment of principal of any Security of such Series at its Maturity, including at the Stated Maturity, upon redemption or required repurchase or by declaration of acceleration thereof; or

(c) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty for which the consequences of nonperformance or breach are addressed elsewhere in this Section 6.1 and other than a covenant or warranty that has been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of the Securities of a Series other than such Series), which default continues uncured for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

(d) (i) a failure to make any payment at Maturity, including any applicable grace period, on any of the Company’s Indebtedness in an amount in excess of $50,000,000 and continuance of this failure to pay or (ii) a default on any of the Company’s Indebtedness, which default results in the acceleration of Indebtedness in an amount in excess of $50,000,000 without this Indebtedness having been discharged or the acceleration having been cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, for a period of 30 days or more after written notice thereof to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of outstanding Securities of such Series; provided, however, that if the failure, default or acceleration referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above shall cease or be cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, then such Event of Default shall be deemed cured; or

(e) the Company, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law, (i) commences a voluntary case, (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (v) generally is unable to pay its debts as the same become due or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of such action; or

24 (f) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of its property or (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company, and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or

(g) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of such Series, which is specified in a Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture, in accordance with Section 2.2(r).

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11 of the U.S. Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

Section 6.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any Series outstanding at the time such Even of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or 6.1(f)), then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series may declare the entire principal amount (or, if any Securities of such Series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of the Securities of such Series) of and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on all of the Securities of such Series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(e) or 6.1(f) shall occur, the principal amount (or specified amount) of and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Securities of any Series 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 a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration with respect to the Securities of such Series and its consequences if:

(a) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series are payable:

(i) all overdue interest on all the Securities of such Series;

(ii) the principal of any Securities of such Series that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon from the

25 date such principal became due at a rate per annum equal to the rate borne by the Securities of such Series, to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable;

(iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate borne by the Securities of such Series; and

(iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.7; and

(b) all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Securities of such Series that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if:

(a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(b) default is made in the payment of principal of any Security of such Series at Maturity thereof, upon optional redemption or required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise,

then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and any overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, 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, 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 such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or deemed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default with respect to any Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such Series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific

enforcement of any 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 overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest 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

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

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 it 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, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, 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 Application of Money Collected. 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 principal or interest,

upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

(a) First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.7; and

(b) Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities in respect of which 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 principal and interest, respectively; and

(c) Third: To the Company.

Section 6.7 Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any Series shall have any right 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, unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series;

(b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of such Series 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 offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by it in compliance with such request;

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of security or 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 the outstanding Securities of such Series;

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

Section 6.8 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Security on the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the date of such redemption) 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 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 such 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 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in Section 2.8, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other 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, to the extent permitted by law, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. 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 6.12 Control by Holders. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series 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 on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such Series, provided that:

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

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; and

(c) subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not joining in any such direction or would expose the Trustee to personal liability.

Section 6.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 6.2, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series waive any past Default hereunder with respect to

such Series and its consequences, except a default (i) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security of such Series (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series may rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences, including any default in such payment that has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration) or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security of such Series affected. 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 any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by such Holder’s 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 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, 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 6.14 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% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security on or after the Stated Maturity or Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the date of such redemption).

ARTICLE VII

TRUSTEE

Section 7.1 Duties of Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others.

(c) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon Officers’ Certificates or Opinions of Counsel furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, in the case of any such Officers’ Certificates or Opinions of Counsel that by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such

30 Officers’ Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(i) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

(j) The Paying Agent, the Registrar and any authenticating agent shall be entitled to the protections, immunities and standard of care as are set forth in Sections 7.1(a), 7.1(b), 7.1(c), 7.1(d) or 7.1(f) with respect to the Trustee.

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute negligence.

(e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder without negligence and in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(g) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

(h) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event that is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities generally or the Securities of a particular Series and this Indenture.

(l) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(m) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such Officers’ Certificate previously delivered and not superseded.

(n) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including loss of profit) irrespective of whether or not the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

Section 7.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

Section 7.4 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities other than its authentication.

Section 7.5 Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Securities of any Series and a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has notice thereof, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of the Securities of such Series and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, notice of such Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has notice of such Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security of any Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as its corporate trust committee or a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders of such Series.

Section 7.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after May 15 in each year, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear on the register kept by the Registrar, and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish in an Authorized Newspaper, a brief report dated as of such May 15, in accordance with, and to the extent required under, Section 313 of the TIA.

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders of any Series shall be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange on which the Securities of such Series are listed. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when Securities of any Series are listed on any stock exchange.

Section 7.7 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its services as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree upon in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

The Company shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee (including the cost of defending itself) against any loss, liability or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred by it except as set forth in the next paragraph in the performance of its duties under this Indenture as Trustee or Agent. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. This indemnification shall apply to officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents of the Trustee.

The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee or by any officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Trustee through negligence or bad faith.

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of any Series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and interest on particular Securities of such Series.

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

The provisions of this Section 7.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination or satisfaction of this Indenture.

Section 7.8 Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.8.

The Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities of one or more Series by so notifying the Company at least 30 days prior to the date of the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee with respect to such Series by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company may remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of one or more Series if:

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

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law;

(c) a Custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

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. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

If a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any one or more Series does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of the applicable Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee subject to the lien provided for 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 with respect to the Securities of each Series for which it is acting as Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to each Holder of each such Series and, if any Bearer Securities are outstanding, publish such notice on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper. 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 with respect to expenses and liabilities incurred by it prior to such replacement.

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 corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Section 310(a)(1), 310(a)(2) and 310(a)(5) of the TIA. The Trustee shall always have a combined capital and surplus of at least $25,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Section 310(b) of the TIA.

Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The Trustee is subject to Section 311(a) of the TIA, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b) of the TIA. A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the TIA to the extent indicated.

ARTICLE VIII

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; DEFEASANCE

Section 8.1 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at its option evidenced by a Board Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, with respect to the Securities of any Series, elect to have either Section 8.2 or 8.3 be applied to all of the outstanding Securities of such Series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article VIII.

Section 8.2 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all of the outstanding Securities of the particular Series on the date the conditions set forth below in Section 8.4 are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged all the obligations relating to, and to have satisfied all of its obligations under, the outstanding Securities of such Series and this Indenture and cured all then existing Events of Default (and the Trustee, on written demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except that the following shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder (and the Securities of such Series shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of the Sections of this Indenture referred to below in this Section 8.2):

(a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of such Series, if any, to receive payments in respect of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due or on the date of any redemption solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture;

(b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities concerning issuing temporary Securities of such Series, or, where relevant, registration of such Securities, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities of such Series and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for the payments held in trust;

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and with respect to the Company’s obligations to the Trustee under Section 7.7; and

(d) this Article VIII.

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.3 with respect to the Securities of any Series. Following such Legal Defeasance, payment of the Securities of such Series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

Section 8.3 Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Company shall be released from any obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 and 5.1 with respect to the outstanding Securities of a particular Series, along with any additional covenants contained in such Security or any Supplemental Indenture in connection therewith, on and after the date the conditions set forth below in Section 8.4 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities of such Series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of such Series appertaining thereto, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and the Securities of such Series shall be unaffected thereby. Following such Covenant Defeasance, payment of the Securities of such Series may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.1(c) (except for a default with respect to Section 5.1), 6.1(d) or 6.1(g).

Section 8.4 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. As set forth below, the following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.2 or 8.3 to the outstanding Securities of any Series:

(a) in the case of either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, the Company must irrevocably deposit, or cause to be irrevocably deposited, with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such Series, cash in the currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series are payable, Government Obligations, or a combination thereof in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of and interest, if any, due on the outstanding Securities of such Series at the Maturity, or on the applicable date of any redemption, as the case may be;

(b) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to such Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions

and exclusions, (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of issuance of the Securities of such Series, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel in the United States confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee for the Securities of such Series an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to such Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to such tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(d) no Event of Default or event that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such Series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit and no Event of Default under Section 6.1(e) or 6.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing on the 91^st day after such date;

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; and

(f) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 8.5 Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture will, upon Company Request, be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all of the Securities of a particular Series issued hereunder when either: (a) all of the Securities of such Series theretofore authenticated and delivered (except (i) lost, stolen or destroyed Securities that have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.8 and (ii) the Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in the last paragraph of Section 8.9) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (b) (i) all of the Securities of such Series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation are due and payable by their terms within one year or have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust an amount of cash in any combination of currency or currency unit in which the Securities of such Series are payable,

U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof in such amounts as will be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Securities of such Series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to Maturity or the date of such redemption, as the case may be, (ii) the Company has paid, or caused to be paid, all sums payable by it under this Indenture and (iii) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Securities of such Series at the Stated Maturity or the date of such redemption, as the case may be. In addition, in the case of clause (a) or (b) above, the Company must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

Section 8.6 Survival of Certain Obligations. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and of the Securities of any Series referred to in Section 8.1, 8.2, 8.4, or 8.5, the respective obligations of the Company and the Trustee under Sections 2.3, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.12, 6.8, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9 and 8.10 and Article VII shall survive with respect to the Securities of such Series until the Securities of such Series are no longer outstanding, and thereafter the obligations of the Company and the Trustee under Sections 8.7, 8.8, 8.9 and 8.10 shall survive. Nothing contained in this Article VIII shall abrogate any of the obligations or duties of the Trustee under this Indenture.

Section 8.7 Acknowledgment of Discharge by Trustee. Subject to Section 8.10, after (a) the conditions of Section 8.4 or 8.5 have been satisfied with respect to the Securities of any Series, (b) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company and (c) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent referred to in clause (a) above relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with, the Trustee upon written request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of all of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified in this Article VIII.

Section 8.8 Application of Trust Moneys. All money and U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.4 or 8.5 in respect of the Securities of such Series shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such Series and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Securities of such Series of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 or 8.5 with respect to the Securities of such Series or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities of such Series.

Section 8.9 Repayment to the Company; Unclaimed Money. The Trustee and any Paying Agent for the Securities of any Series shall promptly pay or return to the Company upon Company Order any cash or U.S. Government Obligations held by them at any time that are not

required for the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of such Series for which cash or U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 or 8.5.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the Securities of any Series, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Security of any Series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal and interest, if any, has become due and payable shall, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be paid to the Company on Company Request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trusts; and the Holder of any such Security shall, thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment may give written notice to the Holder of such Security, that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such written notice, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, be repaid to the Company, as the case may be.

Section 8.10 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent for the Securities of any Series is unable to apply any cash or U.S. Government Obligations, as applicable, in accordance with Section 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 or 8.5 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 or 8.5 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent for the Securities of such Series is permitted to apply all such cash or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 or 8.5; provided, however, that if the Company has made any payment of principal and interest, if any, on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the cash or U.S. Government Obligations, as applicable, held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

Section 9.1 Without Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series without the consent of any Holder:

(a) to cure, correct or supplement any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency as to the Securities of such Series;

(b) to comply with Article V;

(c) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities;

(d) to add guarantees or collateral security with respect to the Securities of such Series;

(e) to add covenants of the Company under this Indenture for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such Series or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company as to the Securities of such Series;

(f) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of the Securities of such Series in any material respect;

(g) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of Securities of any Series as permitted by this Indenture;

(h) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no Security outstanding of any Series created prior to the execution of such amendment or supplement that is adversely affected by such provision;

(i) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee; or

(j) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA.

Section 9.2 With Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may enter into a Supplemental Indenture with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of each Series affected by such Supplemental Indenture (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series), for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any Supplemental Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such Series. Except as provided in Section 6.13, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series by notice to the Trustee (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Securities of such Series) may waive compliance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities of such Series.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Securities under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed Supplemental Indenture or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After a Supplemental Indenture or waiver under this Section 9.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders of Securities affected thereby and, if any Bearer Securities affected thereby are outstanding, publish on one occasion in an Authorized Newspaper, a notice briefly describing such Supplemental Indenture or waiver. Any failure by the Company to mail or publish such notice, or any defect

therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Supplemental Indenture or waiver.

Section 9.3 Limitations. Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not:

(a) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(b) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any Security;

(c) reduce the principal of any Security or change its Maturity, including the Stated Maturity or the date of redemption or required repurchase thereof;

(d) reduce the principal amount of Discount Securities payable upon acceleration of the maturity thereof;

(e) make the principal of or interest, if any, on any Security payable in any currency other than that stated in the Security;

(f) impair the right of any Holder of Securities to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Securities on or after the due dates for the payment of such principal or interest or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Securities;

(g) make any changes that would affect the ranking for the Securities in a manner adverse to the Holders; or

(h) make any change in Section 6.8 or 6.13 or this Section 9.3.

Section 9.4 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities of one or more Series shall be set forth in a Supplemental Indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect.

Section 9.5 Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment is set forth in a Supplemental Indenture or a waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Security 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 such Holder’s Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date of such Supplemental Indenture or the date the waiver becomes effective.

Any amendment or waiver once effective shall bind every Holder of each Series affected by such amendment or waiver unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (a) through (g) of Section 9.3. In that case, the amendment or waiver shall bind 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.

Section 9.6 Notation on or Exchange of Securities. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Security of any Series thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for Securities of such Series may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate upon request new Securities of such Series that reflect the amendment or waiver.

Section 9.7 Trustee Protected. In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any Supplemental Indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the documents required by Section 10.4, and (subject to Section 7.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such Supplemental Indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee shall sign all Supplemental Indentures, except that the Trustee need not sign any Supplemental Indenture that adversely affects its rights.

Section 10.6 Rules by Trustee and Agents. The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Holders of one or more Series. Any Agent may make reasonable rules and set reasonable requirements for its functions.

Section 10.7 Legal Holidays. Unless otherwise provided by Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or Supplemental Indenture for a particular Series, a “Legal Holiday” is any day that is not a Business Day. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

Section 10.8 No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table, and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 10.15 Securities in a Foreign Currency. Unless otherwise specified in a Board Resolution, an Officers’ Certificate or a Supplemental Indenture delivered pursuant to Section 2.2 with respect to the Securities of a particular Series, whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all Series or all Series affected by a particular action at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any Series that are denominated in a coin or currency other than Dollars, then the principal amount of Securities of such Series that shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of taking such action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market Exchange Rate at such time. For purposes of this Section 10.15, “Market Exchange Rate” shall mean the noon Dollar buying rate in New York City for cable transfers of that currency as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. If such Market Exchange Rate is not available for any reason with respect to such currency, the Company shall use, in its sole discretion and without liability on its part, such quotation of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as of the most recent available date, or quotations from one or more major banks in The City of New York or in the country of issue of the currency in question or such other quotations as the Company shall deem appropriate. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply in determining the equivalent principal amount in respect of Securities of a Series denominated in currency other than Dollars in connection with any action taken by Holders of Securities pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

All decisions and determinations of the Company regarding the Market Exchange Rate or any alternative determination provided for in the preceding paragraph shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, to the extent permitted by law, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon all Holders.

Section 10.16 Judgment Currency. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert the sum due in respect of the principal of or interest or other amount on the Securities of any Series (the “Required Currency”) into a currency in which a judgment will be rendered (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered, unless such day is not a New York Banking Day, then the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee could purchase in The City of New York the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the New York Banking Day preceding the day on which final unappealable judgment is entered and (b) its obligations under this Indenture to make payments in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, any recovery pursuant

to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with clause (a) above), in any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt, by the payee, of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable in respect of such payments, (ii) shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovering in the Required Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency so expressed to be payable and (iii) shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sum due under this Indenture. For purposes of the foregoing, “New York Banking Day” means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday in The City of New York on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed and attested, all as of the day and year first above written.
