consideration, the sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto

AND CREATION OF NOTES
AND CREATION OF NOTES
Section 1.01 Application of this Third Supplemental Indenture.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of
this Third Supplemental Indenture, including the covenants set forth herein, are expressly and
solely for the benefit of the Notes.
Section 1.02 Effect of Third Supplemental Indenture.
With respect to the Notes only, the Original Indenture shall be supplemented pursuant to
Sections 2.01, 3.01 and 9.01 thereof to establish the terms of the Notes as set forth in this Third
Supplemental Indenture, including as follows:
(a) | the definitions set forth in Article One of the Original Indenture shall be modified to the extent provided in Article II of this Third Supplemental Indenture; | ||
(b) | the forms and terms of the securities representing the Notes required to be established pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Original Indenture shall be established in accordance with Sections 1.03, 1.04, 1.05, 1.06, 1.07 and 1.08 of this Third Supplemental Indenture; and | ||
(c) | the provisions of Article Ten of the Original Indenture regarding certain covenants of the Company shall be supplemented and amended by the provisions of Article IV of this Third Supplemental Indenture. |
Section 1.03 Designation and Amount of Notes.
The Notes shall be known and designated as the “6.35% Notes due 2040.” The initial maximum
aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Third
Supplemental Indenture shall not exceed $500,000,000 except for Notes authenticated and delivered
upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes pursuant to Sections
2.02, 3.04, 3.05, 3.06 or 9.05 of the Original Indenture (unless the issue of this series of Notes
is “reopened” by issuing additional Notes of such series (the “Additional Notes”)), in an
amount or amounts and registered in the names of such Persons as shall be set forth in any written
order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of
the Original Indenture.
Section 1.04 Terms; Form of Security.
The Notes shall constitute one series for purposes of the Original Indenture and this Third
Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers
to purchase. The Company shall issue any Additional Notes by adopting a Board Resolution in the
manner set forth in Section 3.01 of the Original Indenture providing for the terms of such
issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes are issuable in fully registered form as a
global Security (unless otherwise permitted by Section 2.03 of the Original Indenture) without
coupons and shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto. Upon request by the Depository,
within 14 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01 of the
Original Indenture, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee upon receipt of a Company Order
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for the Notes in global form, the Notes in certificated
form in authorized denominations for an aggregate principal amount requested by the Depository up
to the principal amount of the Notes in global form. The Notes are not issuable in bearer form.
The terms and provisions contained in the form of Note shall constitute, and are hereby expressly
made, a part of this Third Supplemental Indenture and the Company, by its execution and delivery of
this Third Supplemental Indenture, expressly agrees to such terms and provisions and to be bound
thereto. Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such
notations, legends and endorsements as the officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such
- 2 -
approval) and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture (and which do not affect
the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee), or as may be required to comply with any law or
with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed.
Section 1.05 Payment of Principal and Interest.
(a) The Notes shall mature, and the principal of the Notes shall be due and payable in Dollars
to the Holders thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on March 15, 2040.
(b) The Notes shall bear interest at 6.35% per annum from and including March 11, 2010 or from
the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid or provided for until the
principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and (to the extent that
payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of
interest at the same rate per annum. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
comprised of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually in arrears
in Dollars on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2010 (each such
date, an “Interest Payment Date” for the purposes of the Notes under this Third
Supplemental Indenture). Payments of interest shall be made to the Person in whose name a Note (or
predecessor Note) is registered (which shall initially be the Depositary) at the close of business
on March 1 or September 1, as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (each such
date, a “Regular Record Date” for the purposes of the Notes under this Third Supplemental
Indenture).
(c) For so long as the Notes are represented in global form by one or more global Securities,
all payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company by wire transfer of immediately
available funds in Dollars to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered
owner of the global Security representing such Notes. In the event that definitive Notes shall
have been issued, all payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company by wire
transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to the accounts of the registered Holders
thereof; provided, that the Company may elect to make such payments at the office of the Paying
Agent in The City of New York; and provided further, that the Company may at its option pay
interest by check to the registered address of each Holder of a definitive Note.
(d) The Notes shall trade in the Depositary’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System until Stated
Maturity (or until they are subject to acceleration pursuant to Article VI of the Original
Indenture) and secondary market trading activity in the Notes may be required by the Depositary to
settle in immediately available funds.
(e) The Notes are subject to redemption by the Company in whole or in part in the manner
described herein.
Section 1.06 Ranking.
- 3 -
The Notes shall be general unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes shall rank pari
passu in right of payment with all unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and
senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness of the Company.
Section 1.07 Security Registrar and Paying Agent.
The Company hereby initially appoints the Trustee as Paying Agent and Security Registrar for
the Notes. The Company may change the Paying Agent and Security Registrar without prior notice to
the Holders of the Notes, and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or
Security Registrar.
Section 1.08 Sinking Fund
The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund.
ARTICLE II
DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE
Section 2.01 Definitions.
(a) All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined below shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Original Indenture.
(b) The following are definitions used in this Third Supplemental Indenture and to the extent
that a term is defined both herein and in the Original Indenture, the definition in this Third
Supplemental Indenture shall govern with respect to the Notes.
“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes are rated below Investment Grade
by all the Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that
could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of
the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the
Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating
Agencies); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a
particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular
Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes
of the definition of Change of Control Repurchase Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies
making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or
publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction was the result,
in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in
respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall
have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event).
“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:
(1) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than
by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all
- 4 -
or substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets and those of the Company’s
Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as that term is used in Section

without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or
“group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended), other than the Company or one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, becomes the
beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the
then outstanding number of shares of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;
provided that a merger shall not constitute a “change of control” under this definition if
(i) the sole purpose of the merger is the Company’s reincorporation in another state and
(ii) the Company’s shareholders and the number of shares of the Company’s Voting Stock,
measured by voting power and number of shares, owned by each of them immediately before and
immediately following such merger are identical.
“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control
and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the

comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the
average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the
highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains

Company’s Board of Directors who (1) was a member of such Board of Directors on the date of the
issuance of the Notes; or (2) was nominated for election or elected to such Board of Directors with
the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of such Board of Directors
at the time of such nomination or election (either by a specific vote or by approval of
the Company’s proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a
director).
- 5 -
“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings.
“Investment Grade” means a rating of BBB- or better by Fitch (or its equivalent under
any successor rating categories of Fitch), Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any
successor rating categories of Moody’s) and a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent
under any successor rating categories of S&P) or the equivalent investment grade credit rating from
any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.
“Xxxxx’x” means Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc.
“Rating Agency” means (1) any Fitch, Moody’s and S&P; and (2) if any of Fitch, Moody’s

the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any other Primary
Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury
Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked
prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal
amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal
to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price
for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any person, capital stock of any class or kind
the holders of which are ordinarily, in the absence of contingencies, entitled to vote for the

REDEMPTION
Section 3.01 Optional Redemption.
(a) The Notes will be redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the
Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the greater of:
(i) | 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and | ||
(ii) | the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points, |
plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates
falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the
registered Holders as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date according to the Notes
and the Indenture.
(b) Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before
the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed by the Company or by the Trustee on
the Company’s behalf; provided that notice of redemption may be mailed more
- 7 -

the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes. Unless the Company defaults in payment of
the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes
or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the
Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by The Depository Trust Company, in the case of Notes
represented by a global Security, or by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems to be fair and
appropriate, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a global Security.

Section 4.01 Change of Control.
(a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right
to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or
any part (in integral multiples of $1,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash
equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of
Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the
public announcement of an impending Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each
Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or
may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the
payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than
60 days from the date such notice is mailed. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of
consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the
Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the
notice.
(b) The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent
those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a
result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes,
the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed
to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the
Notes by virtue of such conflict.
(c) On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Company will, to the extent
lawful:
(i) | accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in integral multiples of $1,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Company’s offer; | ||
(ii) | deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and |
- 8 -
(iii) | deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased by the Company. |
(d) The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase
price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be
transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased
portion of any Notes surrendered; provided, that each new Note will be in a principal amount of
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount.
(e) The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of
Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and
otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party
purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

6.35% NOTES DUE 2040
1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the
rate per annum shown above, as may be adjusted as set forth below. The Company will pay interest
semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2010. Interest on
the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest
has been paid from March 11, 2010; provided, that, if there is no existing Event of Default in the
payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the
face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such Interest
Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest)
to the Persons who are the registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the March 1
or September 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay principal and
interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts.
3. Registrar and Agents. Initially, The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York will act
as Registrar, Paying Agent and agent for service of notices and demands. The Company or any of its
Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent. The address of The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New
York is Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000.
4. Indenture; Limitations. The Company issued the Notes under the Indenture dated as of March
15, 2000 (the “Original Indenture”, and as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture
dated as of March 11, 2010, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of Nova
Scotia Trust Company of New York, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”). Capitalized
terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the
Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, 15 U.S.C. xx.xx. 77aaa-77bbbb (the “TIA”), as
in effect on the date of the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and the Holders of
the Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them.
The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company ranking pari passu with all other
unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company from time to time outstanding. The
Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company to, among other things, merge
or consolidate with any other Person and sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its properties or assets or to engage in Sale and Leaseback Transactions.
A-4
5. Optional Redemption by the Company. The Notes will be redeemable, in whole at any time or
in part from time to time, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the greater of:
(i) | 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and | ||
(ii) | the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points, |
plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates
falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the
registered Holders as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date according to the Notes
and the Indenture.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the
redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed by the Company or by the Trustee on the
Company’s behalf; provided that notice of redemption may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a
redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a
satisfaction and discharge of the Notes. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption
price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions
thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be
redeemed shall be selected by lot by The Depository Trust Company, in the case of Notes represented
by a global Security, or by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate,
in the case of Notes that are not represented by a global Security.
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the
Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the date of
redemption) of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in
accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of
comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the
average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the
highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains
fewer than four of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations,
or (iii) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation.
“Quotation Agent” means any Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Banc of America Securities LLC and
A-5
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are Primary Treasury
Dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall
cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury
Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any
other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury
Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked
prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal
amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal
to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price
for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
6. Change of Control Repurchase Event. If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless
the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each
holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (in integral multiples of $1,000) of that Holder’s
Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes
repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase.
Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior
to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of an impending Change of Control, the
Company will mail a notice to each holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction
or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and
offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no
earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. The notice
shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer
to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the
payment date specified in the notice.
The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent those
laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a
Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the
Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to
have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes
by virtue of such conflict.
On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Company will, to the extent
lawful:
A-6
(i) | accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in integral multiples of $1,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Company’s offer; | ||
(ii) | deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and | ||
(iii) | deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased by the Company. |
The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase
price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be
transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased
portion of any Notes surrendered; provided, that each new Note will be in a principal amount of
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount.
The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of
Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and
otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party
purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.
“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes are rated below Investment Grade
by all the Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that
could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of
the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the
Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating
Agencies); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a
particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular
Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes
of the definition of Change of Control Repurchase Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies
making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or
publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction was the result,
in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in
respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall
have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event).
“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:
(1) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than
by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or
substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets and those of the Company’s
Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as that term is used in Section
13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), other than the Company or one
of its Subsidiaries;
A-7
(2) the adoption of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution;
(3) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of
Directors are not Continuing Directors; or
(4) the consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions (including,
without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or
“group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended), other than the Company or one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, becomes the
beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the
then outstanding number of shares of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;
provided that a merger shall not constitute a “change of control” under this definition if
(i) the sole purpose of the merger is the Company’s reincorporation in another state and
(ii) the Company’s shareholders and the number of shares of the Company’s Voting Stock,
measured by voting power and number of shares, owned by each of them immediately before and
immediately following such merger are identical.
“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control
and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.
“Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the
Company’s Board of Directors who (1) was a member of such Board of Directors on the date of the
issuance of the Notes; or (2) was nominated for election or elected to such Board of Directors with

Company’s proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director).
“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings.
“Investment Grade” means a rating of BBB- or better by Fitch (or its equivalent under
any successor rating categories of Fitch), Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any

under any successor rating categories of S&P) or the equivalent investment grade credit rating from
any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.
“Xxxxx’x” means Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc.
“Rating Agency” means (1) any Fitch, Xxxxx’x and S&P; and (2) if any of Fitch, Moody’s
or S&P ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for
reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization”
within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Securities Exchange Act
A-8
of 1934, as amended, selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Fitch, Moody’s or
S&P, as the case may be.
“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx
Companies, Inc.
“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any person, capital stock of any class or kind

of said state.

defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the Notes (except as
otherwise provided in the Indenture) (“defeasance”) or (B) with respect to such Notes, to
be released from its obligations with respect to such Notes relating to restrictions on secured
debt and restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions, pursuant to Sections 10.09 and 10.10 of
the Original Indenture, respectively, (“covenant defeasance”), upon the irrevocable deposit
with the Trustee, in trust for such purpose, of money, and/or U.S. Government Obligations which
through the payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money in
an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and interest, if any, on such Notes on the scheduled
due dates therefor. Such a trust may only be established if, among other things, the Company has
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the Holders of such Notes
will not recognize income, gain or loss, for federal income tax purposes as a result of such
defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in
the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance or covenant
defeasance had not occurred (such opinion, in the case of defeasance under clause (A) above, must
refer to and be based upon a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service) and (ii) if the deposit
referred to above shall include U.S. Government Obligations, such deposit shall not result in the

A-9
Original Indenture (unless the issue of this series of Notes is “reopened” by issuing additional
Notes of such series (the “Additional Notes”)), in an amount or amounts and registered in
the names of such Persons as shall be set forth in any written order of the Company for the
authentication and delivery of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Original Indenture. The
Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount

to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required
by law or permitted by the Indenture.
12. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all
purposes.
13. Amendment and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, without notice to the Holders of the
Notes, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the consent of (i) the Holders of not less
than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or (ii)
in case less than all of the several series of Outstanding Securities are affected by such
amendment, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of each series so affected
voting as a single class; and any existing default or compliance with any provision may be waived
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.
Without the consent of or notice to any Holder of Notes, the Company may amend the Indenture or the
Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision of the
Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision of the Indenture, or make
any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture, provided
that such other provision does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material
respect.
14. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of Notes may declare all
the Notes to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Indenture. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the
Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it, subject to the provisions of the
TIA, before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in writing in its
exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Notes.
15. Trustee Dealings with the Company. The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York, the
Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with
the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.
16. No Recourse Against Others. No stockholder, director, officer or incorporator, as such,
past, present or future, of the Company or any successor corporation or trust shall have any
liability for any obligation of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based
on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Note by
accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the
A-10
consideration for the issuance of the Notes.
