SECTION 1. The title of the series of the Securities established by this Supplemental Indenture shall be “________ Notes, Series __, due __________” of the Issuer (hereinafter called the “Series __ Notes”). The Series __ Notes shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) until the principal amount thereof has been duly paid or provided for in full, at a rate per annum equal to ___% and at the same rate per annum on any overdue principal or (to the extent legally enforceable) on any overdue installment of interest (the “Overdue Rate”).
SECTION 2. The Series __ Notes shall be limited in aggregate principal amount to $____________, and shall be issued substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto (which is hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof), subject to changes in the form thereof made by the Issuer and acceptable to the Trustee. The Series __ Notes shall mature on __________.
Interest shall be payable [quarterly] in arrears on the _____ day of __________, __________, _________ and ______ (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) and at Maturity. If any Interest Payment Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day. If Maturity would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest due at Maturity shall be made on the next day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest that is payable but not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered owner of such Series __ Note on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the person in whose name such Series __ Note is registered at the close of business on the Special Record Date established by the Issuer pursuant to Section 3.8 of the Indenture or as otherwise provided in Section 3.8 of the Indenture.
Payments of interest on any Series __ Note (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by mailing a check to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the Securities Register on the applicable record date, unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer.
3
The principal amount thereof and any premium and the interest payable at Maturity will be paid at Maturity against presentation of a Series __ Note at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or as otherwise provided in the Indenture.
[The Series __ Notes are not redeemable prior to Maturity and the provisions of Article XIV of the Indenture are inapplicable.]
[The Series __ Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund and the provisions of Article XV of the Indenture are inapplicable thereto.]
The Series __ Notes are subject to the provisions of Article XII of the Indenture, which provide for the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture under the circumstances and on the conditions set forth therein.
