Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any provision of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as
amended (“TIA”), that is required under the TIA to be part of and govern any provision of
this First Supplemental Indenture, the provision of the TIA shall control. If any provision of
this First Supplemental Indenture modifies or excludes any provisions of the TIA that may be so
modified or excluded, the provisions of the TIA shall be deemed to apply to the Indenture as so
modified or to be excluded by this First Supplemental Indenture, as the case may be.

CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREUNDER THAT WOULD INDICATE THE APPLICABILITY OF THE LAWS OF ANY
OTHER JURISDICTION.
