Underwriting Agreement Standard Provisions

From time to time, The Campbell’s Company, a New Jersey corporation (the “Company”), may enter into one or more underwriting

agreements in the form of Annex A hereto that incorporate by reference these Standard Provisions (collectively with these Standard Provisions, an “Underwriting Agreement”) that provide for the sale of the securities designated in such

Underwriting Agreement (the “Securities”) to the several Underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), for whom the Underwriters named therein shall act as representatives (the “Representatives”). The

Underwriting Agreement, including these Standard Provisions, is sometimes referred to herein as this “Agreement”. The Securities will be issued pursuant to a subordinated indenture (the “Base Indenture”) to be dated as of

October 5, 2026, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, to be dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “First

Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

1. Registration Statement. The

Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities

Act”), a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-298306), including a prospectus (the “Basic Prospectus”), relating to the debt

securities to be issued from time to time by the Company. The Company has also filed, or proposes to file, with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act a prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Securities (the

“Prospectus Supplement”). The registration statement, as amended at the time it became effective, including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to Rule 430A, 430B or 430C under the Securities Act to be part of the registration

statement at the time of its effectiveness, is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement;” and as used herein, the term “Prospectus” means the Basic Prospectus as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement in the form

first used (or made available upon request of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) in connection with confirmation of sales of the Securities and the term “Preliminary Prospectus” means the preliminary Prospectus

Supplement together with the Basic Prospectus. If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term

“Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

References herein to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein. The terms “supplement,”

“amendment” and “amend” as used herein with respect to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed by the

- 1 -

Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) subsequent to the date of the

Underwriting Agreement which are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Effective Time” means the effective date of the Registration Statement with respect to the offering of Securities,

as determined for the Company pursuant to Section 11 of the Securities Act and Item 512 of Regulation S-K, as applicable.

At or prior to the time when sales of the Securities will be first made (the “Time of Sale”), the Company will prepare certain

information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”) which information will be identified in Schedule 3 to the Underwriting Agreement for such offering of Securities as constituting part of the Time of Sale Information.

2. Purchase of the Securities by the Underwriters. (a) The Company agrees to issue and sell the Securities to the several

Underwriters named in the Underwriting Agreement, and each Underwriter, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase

from the Company the respective principal amount of Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in the Underwriting Agreement at the purchase price set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

(b) Payment for and delivery of the Securities will be made at the time and place set forth in the Underwriting Agreement. The time and date

of such payment and delivery is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the

Underwriters named in the Underwriting Agreement are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to any offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with

determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, no such Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment,

accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction.

The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall

be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and such Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by such Underwriters

named in the Underwriting Agreement of the Company, the transactions contemplated thereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company.

circumstances existing when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with law, the Company will immediately notify the Underwriters thereof and forthwith

writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (which term includes use of any written information furnished to the Commission by the Company and not incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and any press

release issued by the Company) other than (i) a free writing prospectus that, solely as a result of use by such Underwriter, would not trigger an obligation to file such free writing prospectus with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433, (ii) any

Issuer Free Writing Prospectus listed on Schedule 3 or Schedule 5 to the Underwriting Agreement or prepared pursuant to Section 3(c) or Section 4(c) above (including any electronic road show), or (iii) any free writing prospectus

prepared by such Underwriter and approved by the Company in advance in writing (each such free writing prospectus referred to in clauses (i) or (iii), an “Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus”);

(b) notwithstanding the foregoing the Underwriters may use a term sheet substantially in the form of Schedule 4 to the Underwriting Agreement

without the consent of the Company; and

(c) it is not subject to any pending proceeding under Section 8A of the Securities Act with

respect to the offering (and will promptly notify the Company if any such proceeding against it is initiated during the Prospectus Delivery Period).

6. Conditions of Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligation of each Underwriter to purchase Securities on the Closing Date as

provided herein is subject to the performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

(a) Registration Compliance; No Stop Order. If a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is required to be filed under

the Securities Act, such post-effective amendment shall have become effective, and the Representatives shall have received notice thereof, not later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date of the Underwriting Agreement; if applicable, the

Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have become effective by 10:00 A.M. New York City time on the business day following the date of the Underwriting Agreement; no order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in

Free Writing Prospectus shall have been timely filed with the Commission under the Securities Act (in the case of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, to the extent required by Rule 433 under the Securities Act) and in accordance with

Section 4(a) hereof.

- 9 -

(b) Officer’s Certificate. The Representatives shall have received on the

Closing Date a certificate signed by two officers of the Company reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives (i) as to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein at and as of the Time of Sale and at and as of

the Closing Date, (ii) as to the performance by the Company of all of its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to the Closing Date, (iii) at and as of the Time of Sale and at and as of the Closing Date, as to the absence

subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements in or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, of any material adverse change in the business, properties and financial

position or results of operation of the Company, in each case except as set forth in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented and (iv) as to the matters set forth

in subsection (a) of this Section.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP shall have furnished to the Representatives, at the request of the Company, separate letters, each dated the respective dates of delivery thereof and addressed to the Underwriters, in form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to the Representatives, containing statements and information of the type customarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial

information, contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus; provided that the letter delivered on the Closing Date shall use a

- 10 -

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims,

damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an

untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement

thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal

or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to

the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the

Time of Sale Information, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement (i) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives

specifically for use therein or (ii) contained in that part of the Registration Statement constituting the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification under the Trust Indenture Act (Form T-1) of the

Trustee.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the

Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are

based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any amendment

or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only

to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information, the Registration Statement or the

Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any

legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.

- 11 -

(c) Notice and Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under

subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental investigation), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection,

notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In

case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish,

jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the

indemnifying party or represent two or more parties if such representation would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between or among them), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its

election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such

indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the

entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or

claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of

fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification

provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to

therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect

the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Securities to which such loss, claims, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) relates. If, however, the allocation

provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or

payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or

omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the

other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter. The relative

fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company

- 12 -

on the one hand or such Underwriter on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The

Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such

purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or

liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such

action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the

public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent

misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection

(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions,

to each officer and director of any Underwriter and to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any

liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the

Securities Act.

8. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the

Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date there shall have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock

Exchange; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York declared by either Federal or New York State authorities or any material disruption in securities settlement or clearance systems; or (iii) the outbreak or

escalation of hostilities or any calamity or crisis on or after the date of this Agreement if the effect of any such event specified in this clause (iii) in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse to the market

for the Securities and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus as amended or supplemented.

- 13 -

9. Defaulting Underwriter. (a) If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter defaults

on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons

satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such

Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Securities on such terms.

If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full

business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company

agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless

the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in the Underwriting Agreement that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Securities that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased does not exceed

one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the

principal amount of Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the

Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to

any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate

principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph

(b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without

liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 10 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain

in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

- 14 -

10. Payment of Expenses. (a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to

the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the

Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs

of reproducing and distributing the Indenture, the Securities and the Underwriting Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”); (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent accountants in connection

with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act and the offer and sale of the Securities; (v) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; and (vi) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any paying

agent (including related fees and expenses of any counsel to such parties).

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to

Section 8, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement (other than as permitted

by Section 9), the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses approved in writing by the Representatives (including the

fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

11. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and

their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to

give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such

purchase.

12. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered

Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer

would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding

under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special

Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. For purposes of this Section 12:

“covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default

Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated

thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

13. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the

Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities and shall remain

in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters.

14. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term

“affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City; and

(c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

15. Miscellaneous.

- 16 -

(c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance

with the laws of the State of New York.

any consent or approval to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

to be dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

The Company agrees to issue and sell the Securities to the several Underwriters as provided in this Agreement, and each Underwriter, on the

basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective principal amount of Securities set forth opposite

such Underwriter’s name in Schedule 1 hereto at a price equal to 99.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, from October 5, 2026 to the Closing Date (as defined below). The Company will not be obligated to

deliver any of the Securities except upon payment for all the Securities to be purchased as provided herein.

- 18 -

The Company understands that the Underwriters intend to make a public offering of the

Securities as soon after the effectiveness of this Agreement as in the judgment of the Representatives is advisable, and initially to offer the Securities on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus. Schedule 3 hereto

sets forth the Time of Sale Information made available at the Time of Sale. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell Securities to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter and that any such affiliate may offer

and sell Securities purchased by it to or through any Underwriter as set forth in the Prospectus and in accordance with this Agreement.

Payment for and delivery of the Securities shall be made at the offices of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP at 10:00 A.M., New York City

Payment for the Securities shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by the Company to the

Representatives against delivery to the nominee of The Depository Trust Company, for the account of the Underwriters, of one or more global notes representing the Securities (collectively, the “Global Notes”), with any transfer taxes

payable in connection with the sale of the Securities duly paid to the Underwriters by the Company. The Global Notes will be made available for inspection by the Representatives not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the business day prior

to the Closing Date.

The Company and the Underwriters acknowledge and agree that the only information relating to any Underwriter that

has been furnished to the Company in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of

Sale Information consists of the following: (a) the second sentence of the third paragraph of text under the caption “Underwriting” in the preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement, concerning market making by

the Underwriters, (b) the fourth paragraph of text under the caption “Underwriting” in the preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement, concerning the terms of the offering by the Underwriters and (c) the

sixth paragraph of text under the caption “Underwriting” in the preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement, concerning short sales and stabilization by the Underwriters, and related matters.

All provisions contained in the document entitled The Campbell’s Company Debt Securities Underwriting Agreement Standard Provisions are

incorporated by reference herein in their entirety and shall be deemed to be a part of this Underwriting Agreement to the same extent as if such provisions had been set forth in full herein, except that if any term defined in such Underwriting

Agreement Standard Provisions is otherwise defined herein, the definition set forth herein shall control.

This Agreement may be signed in

counterparts (which may include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Aggregate Principal Amount of the Securities:

$300,000,000

Maturity Date:

April 5, 2057

Interest Rate:

The Securities will bear interest (i) from and including October 5, 2026 (“Original Issue Date”) to, but excluding, April 5, 2032 (the “First Reset Date”) at the rate of 8.500% per annum (the

“Initial Interest Rate”) and (ii) from and including the First Reset Date, during each Reset Period (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) at a rate per annum equal to the Five-Year U.S. Treasury Rate (as defined in the

Preliminary Prospectus) as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) for such Reset Period plus a spread of 3.511%, to be reset on each Reset Date (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus);

provided that the interest rate during any Reset Period will not reset below 8.500% (which equals the initial interest rate on the Securities).

Interest Payment Dates:

Subject to the Company’s right to defer interest payments as described under “Optional Deferral of Interest” below, semi-annually in arrears on April 5 and October 5 of each year, beginning on

April 5, 2027.

Schedule 2 - 1

Record Dates:

The close of business on the record date for the applicable interest payment date, which will be (i) the business day immediately preceding such interest payment date so long as all of the Securities remain in book-entry only

form or (ii) the 15th calendar day preceding such interest payment date (whether or not a business day) if any of the Securities do not remain in book-entry only form.

Optional Redemption:

At its option, the Company may redeem some or all of the Securities, as applicable, before their maturity, as follows:

•

in whole or in part, on one or more occasions at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to,

but excluding, the redemption date (i) on any day during the period commencing on the date that is 90 days prior to the First Reset Date and ending on and including the First Reset Date and (ii) after the First Reset Date, on any interest

payment date for the Securities;

•

in whole, but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date,

by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Tax Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus); and

in whole, but not in part, at 102% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date,

by a date no later than 120 days following a Rating Agency Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus).

Optional Deferral of

Interest:

So long as no event of default with respect to the Securities has occurred and is continuing, the Company may, on one or more occasions, defer payment of all or part of the current and accrued interest otherwise due on the

Securities for a period of up to 10 consecutive years (commencing on the date that the first such interest payment would otherwise have been made on the Securities, an “Optional Interest Deferral Period”). Any deferred interest will not

be due or payable on the Securities during any Optional Interest Deferral Period unless the Company elects, at its option, to redeem the Securities during such Optional Interest Deferral Period,

Schedule 2 - 2

in which case accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date will be due and payable on such redemption date only on the Securities being redeemed, or unless the principal of and interest on the Securities shall

have been declared due and payable as the result of an event of default with respect to the Securities, in which case all accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities shall become due and payable. A deferral of interest payments may not end on a

date other than an interest payment date and may not extend beyond the maturity date of the Securities, and the Company may not begin a new Optional Interest Deferral Period with respect to the Securities, and may not pay current interest on the

Securities, until the Company has paid all accrued interest on the Securities from the previous Optional Interest Deferral Period. The Company may also elect, at its option, to shorten the length of any Optional Interest Deferral Period. Any

deferred interest on the Securities will accrue additional interest at a rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the Securities, compounded on each interest payment date, to the extent permitted by applicable law (“compound

interest”). Once the Company pays all deferred interest payments on the Securities, including any compound interest accrued on the deferred interest, the Company can again defer interest payments on the Securities as described above, but not

beyond the maturity date of the Securities.

Change of Control:

If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) occurs, the Company may elect to redeem, in whole but not in part, the Securities at 101% of the principal amount of the Securities, together with

any accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company does not elect to redeem in such manner, the per annum rate of interest payable on the Securities will subsequently be increased by 500.0 basis points (5.0

percentage points).

Subordination; Ranking:

The Notes will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the indenture governing the Notes, to all of the Company’s senior indebtedness (as defined in the Preliminary

Prospectus). The Notes will be effectively junior to any of the Company’s future secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness, and will be structurally subordinated to any indebtedness and other liabilities of

the Company’s subsidiaries. The Notes will rank equally in right of payment with any future unsecured indebtedness that the Company may incur from time to time if the terms of such indebtedness provide that it ranks equally with the Notes in

right of payment.

Interest Rate:

The Notes will bear interest (i) from and including October 5, 2026 (“original issue date”) to, but excluding, April 5, 2032 (the “First Reset Date”) at the rate of 8.500% per annum (the

“Initial Interest Rate”) and (ii) from and including the First Reset Date, during each Reset Period (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) at a rate per annum equal to the Five-Year U.S. Treasury Rate (as defined in the

Preliminary Prospectus) as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) for such Reset Period plus a spread of 3.511%, to be reset on each Reset Date (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus);

provided that the interest rate during any Reset Period will not reset below 8.500% (which equals the Initial Interest Rate on the Notes).

Interest Payment Dates:

Subject to the Company’s right to defer interest payments as described under “Optional Deferral of Interest” below, semi-annually in arrears on April 5 and October 5 of each year, beginning on April 5,

2027.

Record Dates:

The close of business on the record date for the applicable interest payment date, which will be (i) the business day immediately preceding such interest payment date so long as all of the Notes remain in book-entry only form

or (ii) the 15th calendar day preceding such interest payment date (whether or not a business day) if any of the Notes do not remain in book-entry only form.

Optional Deferral of Interest:

So long as no event of default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, the Company may, on one or more occasions, defer payment of all or part of the current and accrued interest otherwise due on the Notes for a

period of up to 10 consecutive years (commencing on the date that the first such interest payment would otherwise have been made on the Notes, an “Optional Interest Deferral Period”). Any deferred interest will not be due or payable on

the Notes during any Optional Interest Deferral Period unless the Company elects, at its option, to redeem the Notes during such Optional Interest Deferral Period, in which case accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date will

be due and payable on such redemption date only on the Notes being redeemed, or unless the principal of and interest on the Notes shall have been declared due and payable as the result of an event of default with respect to the Notes, in which case

all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes shall become due and payable. A deferral of interest payments may not end on a date other than an interest payment date and may not extend beyond the maturity date of the Notes, and the Company may not

begin a new Optional Interest Deferral Period with respect to the Notes, and may not pay current interest on the Notes, until the Company has paid all accrued interest on the Notes from the previous Optional Interest Deferral Period. The Company may

also elect, at its option, to shorten the length of any Optional Interest Deferral Period.

Any deferred interest on the Notes will accrue additional interest at a rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the Notes, compounded on each interest payment date, to the extent permitted by applicable law

(“compound interest”). Once the Company pays all deferred interest payments on the Notes, including any compound interest accrued on the deferred interest, the Company can again defer interest payments on the Notes as described above,

but not beyond the maturity date of the Notes.

Optional Redemption:

At its option, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes, as applicable, before their maturity, as follows:

•

in whole or in part, on one or more occasions at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to,

but excluding, the redemption date (i) on any day during the period commencing on the date that is 90 days prior to the First Reset Date and ending on and including the First Reset Date and (ii) after the First Reset Date, on any interest

payment date for the Notes;

•

in whole, but not in part, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date,

by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Tax Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus); and

•

in whole, but not in part, at 102% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date,

by a date no later than 120 days following a Rating Agency Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus).

For additional information and the definitions of the terms Tax Event and Rating Agency Event, see “Description of the Notes—Redemption” in

the Preliminary Prospectus.

Change of Control:

If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) occurs, the Company may elect to redeem, in whole but not in part, the Notes at 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, together with any accrued

and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company does not elect to redeem in such manner, the per annum rate of interest payable on the Notes will subsequently be increased by 500.0 basis points (5.0 percentage

points).

It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment thereof on or about

October 5, 2026, which will be the second business day following the date of the pricing of the Notes (such settlement being referred to as “T+2”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act,

trades in the secondary market are generally required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the business day preceding the scheduled

settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will initially settle in T+2, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to

trade the Notes prior to the business day preceding the scheduled settlement date should consult their advisors.

INDENTURE, dated as of October 5, 2026, from THE CAMPBELL’S COMPANY, a New Jersey

corporation (hereinafter called the “Company”) having its principal office at One Campbell Place, Camden, New Jersey 08103-1799 to U.S. BANK TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking corporation (hereinafter called

the “Trustee”).

RECITALS OF THE COMPANY

The Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture to provide for the issuance from time to time of its unsecured

subordinated debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (hereinafter called the “Securities”), to be issued in one or more series as in this Indenture provided.

All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Company, in accordance with its terms, have been done.

NOW, THEREFORE, THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH:

For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Securities by the Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and agreed, for

the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Securities or of a series thereof, as follows:

ARTICLE 1

DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF GENERAL

APPLICATION

Section 1.01. Definitions. For all purposes of this Indenture, except as otherwise expressly

provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

(a) the terms defined in this Article have the meanings assigned to them in this

Article, and include the plural as well as the singular,

(b) all other terms used herein which are defined in the Trust Indenture Act,

either directly or by reference therein, have the meanings assigned to them therein;

(c) all accounting terms not otherwise defined

herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and, except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the term “generally accepted accounting principles”

with respect to any computation required or permitted hereunder shall mean such accounting principles which are generally accepted in the United States at the date or time of such computation; and

(d) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import

refer to this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision.

Certain terms, used principally in

Article 6, are defined in that Article.

“Act”, when used with respect to any Holder, has the meaning specified in

Section 1.04.

“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or

controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means the power to direct the management and

policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the

foregoing.

“Attributable Debt” means, as to any particular lease under which any Person is at the time liable and at

any date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined, the total net amount of rent required to be paid by such Person under such lease during the remaining primary term thereof, discounted from the respective due dates thereof to such date at

the actual percentage rate inherent in such arrangement as determined in good faith by the Company. The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the aggregate amount of the rent payable by the lessee

with respect to such period after excluding amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. In the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the

payment of a penalty, such net amount shall also include the amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.

“Authenticating Agent” means any Person authorized by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14 to act on behalf of the

Trustee to authenticate Securities of one or more series.

“Authorized Newspaper” means a newspaper, in the English

language or in an official language of the country of publication, customarily published on each Business Day, whether or not published on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays, and of general circulation in the place in connection with which the term is

used or in the financial community of such place. Where successive publications are required to be made in Authorized Newspapers, the successive publications may be made in the same or in different newspapers in the same city meeting the foregoing

requirements and in each case on any Business Day.

“Authorized Officer”, when used with respect to the Company, means

request or notice shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, (i) after the expiration of such 90-day period, a new demand, request or notice identical to a demand, request or notice which has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence or (ii) during any such 90-day period, a new demand, request or notice which has been cancelled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence or (iii) during any such 90-day period, a new

the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. With regard to any action that may be given or taken hereunder only by Holders of a requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of any series (or their

duly appointed agents) and for which a record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company may, at its option, set an expiration date after which no such action purported to be given or taken by any Holder shall be effective hereunder unless

given or taken on or prior to such expiration date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such date (or their duly appointed agents). On or prior to any expiration date set pursuant to this

paragraph, the Company may, on one or more occasions at its option, extend such date to any later date. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent any Holder (or any duly appointed agent thereof) from giving or taking, after any expiration date, any

action identical to, or, at any time, contrary to or different from, any action, given or taken, or purported to have been given or taken, hereunder by a Holder on or prior to such date, in which event the Company may set a record date in respect

thereof pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the Trust Indenture Act, the Company shall not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any action to be given or taken by

Holders pursuant to Section 5.01, 5.02 or 5.12.

(b) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Bearer Securities if published in an

Authorized Newspaper in the City of New York and in such other city or cities as may be specified in such Securities on a Business Day at least once, the first such publication to be not earlier than the earliest date, and not later than the latest

date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.

If, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to

mail notice of any event to Holders of Registered Securities when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such manner of giving such notice as shall be acceptable to the Trustee shall constitute

sufficient giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Registered Security shall

affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Registered Securities or the sufficiency of any notice with respect to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein

prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

15

If, by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized Newspaper or Authorized

Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given in a manner satisfactory to the

Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither the failure to give notice by publication to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in any notice so published, shall affect the

sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Registered Securities given as provided herein.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any

manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but

such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

Section 1.07.

Language of Notices, Etc. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, Act of Holders or other document required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any published notice

may be in an official language of the country of publication.

Section 1.08. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any

provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof which is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

Section 1.09. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for

convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 1.10. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and

agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 1.11.

Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or the Securities or coupons shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or

impaired thereby.

Section 1.12. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or the Securities or coupons, expressed or

implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities or coupons, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 1.13. Governing Law. This Indenture and the Securities and any coupons shall be governed by and construed in accordance

with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE HOLDERS AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL

RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE

16

TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the federal courts

of the United States of America located in the City of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail (to the extent allowed under any applicable statute or rule of court) to

such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The Company, the Trustee and the Holders (by their acceptance of the Securities) each hereby

irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim any such suit, action or other

proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 1.14. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment

Date, Redemption Date, sinking fund payment date or Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities or coupons other

than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, need not be made at such Place of Payment on such

date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity, provided that no interest

shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be to such succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.15. 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 on the Securities of any series from the currency in which such sum is payable in accordance with the terms of such Securities (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 New York Business Day preceding that on which a final unappealable judgment is rendered and (b) its obligations under this Indenture to make payments

in the Required Currency (i) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment (whether or not entered in accordance with subsection (a)), 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.

17

Section 1.16. Immunity of Incorporators, Shareholders, Officers, Directors and

Employees. (a) No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, or of any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, officer,

director or employee, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or

penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder are solely corporate obligations of the Company, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred

by, the incorporators, shareholders, officers, directors or employees, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, or any of them, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the obligations

or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities or implied therefrom; and that any and all such personal liability, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or statute, of, and any and all such rights and claims

against, every such incorporator, shareholder, officer, director or employee, as such, because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by reason of the obligations or agreements contained in this Indenture or in any of the

Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of such Securities.

(b) All payments of interest and other amounts, if any, to be made by the Trustee hereunder shall be made only from the money deposited with

the Trustee and only to the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or proceeds to make such payments in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of a Security, agrees that it will look

solely to the income and proceeds deposited by the Company with the Trustee to the extent available for distribution to the Holder thereof as provided and that the Trustee is not personally liable in any manner to the Holder hereof for any amounts

payable or any liability under this Indenture or any Security.

ARTICLE 2

SECURITY FORMS

Section 2.01. Forms Generally. The Registered Securities, if any, of each series and the Bearer Securities, if any, of each series

and related coupons, if any, shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A and Exhibit B to this Indenture, respectively, or in such other form (including temporary or permanent global form) as shall be established in one or more

indentures supplemental hereto or approved from time to time by or pursuant to a Board Resolution in accordance with Section 3.01, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or

permitted by this Indenture and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith,

be determined by the officers executing such Securities and coupons, if any, as evidenced by their execution of the Securities and coupons, if any. If the forms of Securities and coupons, if any, of any series (or the form of any such temporary or

permanent global

18

Security) are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the

Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section 3.03 for the authentication and delivery of such Securities or coupons (or any such temporary or permanent global Security).

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, the Securities of each series shall

be issuable in registered form without coupons. If so provided as contemplated by Section 3.01, the Securities of a series also shall be issuable in bearer form, with interest coupons, if any, attached.

The definitive Securities and coupons, if any, shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods on

steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, all as determined by the officers executing such Securities and coupons, if any, as evidenced by

their execution of such Securities and coupons, if any.

Section 2.02. Form of Trustee’s Certificate of

Authentication. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

This is one of the

Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

U.S. BANK TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee

By:

Authorized Signatory

Section 2.03. Securities in Global Form. If Securities of a series are issuable in global

form, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding clause (i) of Section 3.01 and the provisions of Section 3.02, any such Security shall represent such of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall

be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be

reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Security Registrar in such manner and

upon written instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.03 or 3.04. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.03 and, if applicable,

Section 3.04, the Trustee or the Security Registrar shall deliver and redeliver any Security in permanent global form in the manner and upon written instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company

Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 3.03 or 3.04 has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or delivery or redelivery of a Security in global form shall be in writing but

need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

19

The provisions of the last sentence of Section 3.03 shall apply to any Security

represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written instructions in the form of an Officers’ Certificate

upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely, and which need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel, with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the Officers’ Certificate

contemplated by the last sentence of Section 3.03.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.01 and 3.07, payment of principal of

(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on any Security in permanent global form shall be made to the Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Trustee’s Security Register.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.08, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company and the Trustee shall treat as the

Holder a Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Trustee’s Security Register or, in the case of a permanent global Security in bearer form, a Person specified in a written statement of Euroclear or Clearstream, which is

produced to the Trustee by such Person.

Section 2.04. Form of Legend for Book-Entry Securities. Any Book-Entry Security

authenticated and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

If a Book-Entry Security –

“This Security is a Book-Entry Security within the meaning of the Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of a Depositary or a nominee of a Depositary. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name

of a Person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Indenture, and no transfer of this Security (other than a transfer of this Security as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary

or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary) may be registered except in such limited circumstances.”

22

(t) any addition to, deletion from, change in or modification to the subordination

All Securities of any one series and any coupons

appertaining thereto shall be substantially identical except, in the case of Registered Securities, as to denomination and except in the case of any series of Securities, as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to such Board Resolution referred

to above and (subject to Section 3.03) set forth in such Officers’ Certificate or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a series may be

reopened for issuances of additional Securities of such series; provided that if any additional Securities subsequently issued are not fungible with any Securities previously issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Securities

will have a separate CUSIP number. Securities may differ between series in respect of any matters.

If any of the terms of the Securities

of any series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the

delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the Securities of such series.

Section 3.02.

thereof and any Bearer Securities of such series shall be issuable in the denomination of $5,000.

Section 3.03. Execution,

Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its chairman of the board, its president, its chief financial officer, its treasurer or its deputy treasurer, attested by its secretary or one of

its assistant secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Coupons shall bear the facsimile signature of the treasurer, deputy treasurer or any assistant treasurer of the Company.

Securities and coupons bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall

bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

23

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the

Company may deliver Securities of any series, together with any coupons appertaining thereto, executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such

Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities; provided, however, that, in connection with its original issuance, no Bearer Security shall be mailed or otherwise

delivered to any location in the United States; and provided, further, that a Bearer Security may be delivered in connection with its original issuance only if the Person entitled to receive such Bearer Security shall have furnished a

certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit C-1 to this Indenture, dated no earlier than 15 days prior to the earlier of the date on which such Bearer Security is delivered and the date on which any temporary

global Security first becomes exchangeable for such Bearer Security in accordance with the terms of such temporary global Security and this Indenture. If any Security shall be represented by a permanent global Bearer Security, then, for purposes of

this Section and Section 3.04, the notation of a beneficial owner’s interest therein upon original issuance of such Security or upon exchange of a portion of a temporary global Security shall be deemed to be delivery in connection with

its original issuance of such beneficial owner’s interest in such permanent global Security. Except as permitted by Section 3.06 the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all appurtenant coupons for

interest then matured have been detached and cancelled.

If the forms or terms of the Securities of the series and any related coupons

have been established in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the

Trustee shall receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating:

(a) if

the forms of such Securities and any coupons have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.01, that such forms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(b) if the terms of such Securities and any coupons have been established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution as permitted by

Section 3.01, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(c) that all conditions

precedent in the Indenture to the issuance and authentication of the Securities have been complied with by the Company; and

(d) that such

Securities, together with any coupons appertaining thereto, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to customary qualifications specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid

and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of

creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. If such forms or terms have been so established,

24

the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities (or to enter into the related supplemental indenture, if applicable) if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture

will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties, obligations or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or will otherwise affect the Trustee in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.01 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally

issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior

to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued.

A Company Order delivered in the circumstances set forth in the preceding paragraph may provide that Securities which are the subject thereof

will be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee on original issue from time to time upon the written order of persons designated in such Company Order, and that such persons are authorized to determine, consistent with the Officers’

Certificate referred to in Section 3.01 or any applicable supplemental indenture, such terms and conditions of said Securities as are specified in such Company Order, provided the foregoing procedure is acceptable to the Trustee.

Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Each Bearer Security of a series shall be dated as of the date of the

initial issuance of Securities of such series.

No Security or any related coupon shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or

be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security, or the Security to which such coupon appertains, a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature,

and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that such Security and any related coupon are entitled to the benefits of this

Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in

Section 3.09 together with an Officers’ Certificate (which need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall

be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

25

Section 3.04. Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive

Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized

denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or more coupons or without coupons, and with such appropriate insertions,

omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. In the case of Bearer Securities of any series, such temporary Securities may be in global

form, representing all of the Outstanding Bearer Securities of such series. A temporary Bearer Security shall be delivered only in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 3.03.

Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions of the following

paragraphs), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary

Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 11.02 in a Place of Payment

for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured coupons appertaining thereto) the Company shall execute and upon receipt of a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations; provided, however, that no definitive

Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and provided, further, that a definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security only in compliance with the

conditions set forth in Section 3.03. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 3.01, the following

provisions of this Section 3.04 shall govern the exchange of temporary Securities other than through the facilities of DTC. If any such temporary Securities of a series are issued in global form, any such temporary global Security shall, unless

otherwise provided therein, be delivered to the London office of a depositary or common depositary (the “Common Depositary”) upon and pursuant to a written direction of the Company, for the benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream,

for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of such Securities (or to such other accounts as they may direct).

Without

unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any such temporary global Security of a series (the “Exchange Date”), the Company shall execute, and upon a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities of such series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary global Security. On or after the Exchange Date, such temporary global Security shall

be surrendered by the Common Depositary to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities of such series without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate

and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such

26

temporary global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such temporary global

Security to be exchanged; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, upon such presentation by the Common Depositary, such temporary global Security is accompanied by a certificate dated the

Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by Euroclear as to the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to be exchanged and a certificate dated the Exchange Date or a subsequent date and signed by Clearstream as to

the portion of such temporary global Security held for its account then to be exchanged, each in the form set forth in Exhibit C-2 to this Indenture or in such other form as may be established pursuant to

Section 3.01. The definitive Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global Security shall be in bearer form, registered form, permanent global bearer form or permanent global registered form, or any combination thereof,

as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof (as directed by or pursuant to information provided by the Common Depositary); provided,

however, that definitive Bearer Securities shall be delivered in exchange for a portion of a temporary global Security only in compliance with the requirements of Section 3.03.

Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, the interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a series in a temporary

global Security shall be exchanged for definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor following the Exchange Date when the account holder instructs Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to request such exchange on his behalf and

delivers to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate in the form set forth in Exhibit C-1 to this Indenture (or in such other form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01), dated

no earlier than 15 days prior to the Exchange Date, copies of which certificate shall be available from the offices of Euroclear and Clearstream, the Trustee, the Authenticating Agent appointed for such series of Securities and each Paying Agent.

Unless otherwise specified in such temporary global Security, any such exchange shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security, except that a Person receiving definitive Securities must bear the cost of

insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such Person does not take delivery of such definitive Securities in person at the offices of Euroclear or Clearstream. Definitive Securities in bearer form to be delivered in exchange

for any portion of a temporary global Security shall be delivered only to an address located outside the United States.

Until exchanged

in full as hereinabove provided, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor authenticated and delivered hereunder,

except that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, interest payable on a temporary global Security on an Interest Payment Date for Securities of such series occurring prior to the applicable Exchange Date shall be payable

to Euroclear and Clearstream on such Interest Payment Date upon delivery by Euroclear and Clearstream to the Trustee of a certificate or certificates in the form set forth in Exhibit C-3 to this Indenture (or

in such other forms as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01), for credit without further interest on or after such Interest Payment Date to

27

the respective accounts of the Persons who are the beneficial owners of such temporary global Security on such Interest Payment Date and who have each delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream, as

the case may be, in such form as may be established pursuant to Section 3.01. Any interest so received by Euroclear and Clearstream and not paid as herein provided shall be returned to the Trustee immediately prior to the expiration of two

years after such Interest Payment Date in order to be repaid to the Company in accordance with Section 11.03.

Section 3.05.

Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency to be maintained by the

Company in accordance with Section 11.02 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the

registration of Registered Securities and of transfers of Registered Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Registered Securities and transfers of Registered Securities as herein

provided.

Upon due surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at the office or agency maintained

pursuant to Section 11.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered

Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor.

At the option of the

Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at

such office or agency. Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities.

At the option of the Holder, Bearer

Securities of any series may be exchanged for Registered Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such office or

agency, with all unmatured coupons and all matured coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured or matured coupon or coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the

Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing coupon or coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company or jointly by

the Company and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such security and/or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such

missing coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02, interest

represented by coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons at an office or agency

28

located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of the

same series and like tenor after the close of business at such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record

Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for

payment, as the case may be, and interest or Defaulted Interest as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such

Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, any permanent global Security shall be

exchangeable only as provided in this paragraph. If the beneficial owners of interest in a permanent global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of another authorized

form and denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall execute, and upon a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities of that series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such permanent global Security. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so

exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered by the Common Depositary or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be

exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities of the same series without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such permanent global Security, a like aggregate principal

amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such permanent global Security to be exchanged which, unless the Securities of the series are not issuable both as Bearer Securities

and as Registered Securities, as specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, shall be in the form of Bearer Securities or Registered Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof, provided,

however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date; and provided,

further, that no Bearer Security delivered in exchange for a portion of a permanent global Security (or, if specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, in exchange for Registered Securities) shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any

location in the United States. Promptly following any such exchange in part and any endorsement thereon to reflect the amount represented by such exchange, such permanent global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to the Common Depositary or

such other depositary or Common Depositary referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Registered

29

Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date

and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed date for payment of Defaulted

Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment

Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as otherwise specified or contemplated by Section 3.01, any Book-Entry Security shall be

exchangeable pursuant to this Section 3.05 or Sections 3.04, 9.06 and 12.07 for Securities registered in the name of, and a transfer of a Book-Entry Security of any series may be registered to, any Person other than the Depositary for such

Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Book-Entry Security or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the

Exchange Act, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order that such Book-Entry Security shall be so exchangeable and the transfer thereof so registrable or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an

Event of Default, or an event which after notice or lapse of time would be an Event of Default, with respect to the Securities of such series. Upon the occurrence in respect of any Book-Entry Security of any series of any one or more of the

conditions specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence or such other conditions as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such series, such Book-Entry Security may be exchanged for Securities registered

in the names of, and the transfer of such Book-Entry Security may be registered to, such Persons (including Persons other than the Depositary with respect to such series and its nominees) as such Depositary shall direct. Notwithstanding any other

provision of this Indenture, any Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, any Book-Entry Security shall also be a Book-Entry Security and shall bear the legend specified in

Section 2.04 except for any Security authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or upon registration of transfer of, a Book-Entry Security pursuant to the preceding sentence.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing

the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the

Trustee or any transfer agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and the Security Registrar or any transfer agent duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his

attorney duly authorized in writing.

30

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities,

but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to

Sections 3.04, 9.06 and 12.07 not involving any transfer.

The Company or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required (i) to

issue, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on (A) if

Securities of the series are issuable only as Registered Securities, the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption and (B) if Securities of the series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the day of the first publication of the

relevant notice of redemption or, if Securities of the series are also issuable as Registered Securities and there is no publication, the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered

Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except that such a Bearer Security may be

exchanged for a Registered Security of that series and like tenor, provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously surrendered for redemption.

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the terms of a Security to the contrary, the exchange of Bearer Securities for Registered

Securities will be subject to satisfaction of the provisions of the United States Federal income tax laws in effect at the time of such exchange. None of the Company, the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent of the Company or the Trustee (any of

which, other than the Company, shall rely on an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel) shall be required to exchange any Bearer Security for a Registered Security if as a result thereof and in the Company’s reasonable judgment,

the Company would incur adverse consequences under then applicable United States Federal income tax laws. No Registered Security may be exchanged for a Bearer Security.

The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a global Security, a member of, or a participant in, DTC or

other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Securities or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial

owner or other Person (other than DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Securities (or other security or property) (other than to DTC or its nominee) under or with respect

to such Securities. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Securities shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be DTC or its

nominee in the case of a global Security). The rights of beneficial owners in any global Security shall be exercised only through DTC subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying

upon information furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

31

Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any

liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States Federal or state securities law. The Trustee shall have no obligation

or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among

Depositary Participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by

the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither the Company, the Trustee nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or

not taken by DTC.

Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security or a Security

with a mutilated coupon appertaining thereto is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company, together with, in proper cases, such security and/or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them or any agent of either of

them harmless, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not

contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to the surrendered Security.

If there

shall have been delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security or coupon, and (ii) such security and/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 or coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its receipt of a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains (with all appurtenant coupons not destroyed, lost or

stolen), a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or

to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security

or coupon 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 or coupon; provided however, that principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on Bearer

Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States; and provided, further, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by

Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on Bearer Securities (but not any additional amounts payable as provided in Section 11.09), shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the coupons appertaining

thereto.

32

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company or the Trustee 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 with its coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security,

or in exchange for a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its coupons, if any, or

the destroyed, lost or stolen coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and any such new Security and coupons, if any, shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of

that series and their coupons, if any, duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 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 or coupons.

Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with

respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor

Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest; provided, however, that each installment of interest on any Registered Security may at the Company’s option be paid by

(i) mailing a check for such interest, payable to the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 3.08, to the address of such Person as it appears on the Security Register or (ii) transfer to an account maintained by such Person

inside the United States; provided, however, that if payment is to be made pursuant to (ii) above, the Trustee shall have received written wire instructions by no later than the Regular Record Date preceding such Interest Payment

Date.

Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01, every permanent global Security or Book-Entry Security will provide

that interest, if any, payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to DTC, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, as the case may be, with respect to that portion of such permanent global Security held for its account by Cede & Co. or the

Common Depositary, as the case may be, for the purpose of permitting such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such permanent global Security or Book-Entry Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, any interest due on Bearer

Securities on or before Maturity shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the several coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as severally mature.

33

Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise provided as contemplated by

Section 3.01 with respect to the Securities of any series, payment of interest may be made, in the case of a Bearer Security, by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located outside the United States upon surrender of the

coupon for such payment.

In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security of such series

after the close of business (at an office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series) on any Regular Record Date for such Registered Security and before the opening of business (at such office or agency) on the next succeeding Interest Payment

Date, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date and interest will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer

Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Any

interest on any Registered Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the

Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below.

(a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Registered Securities of such series (or

their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of

the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Registered Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money in the currency or currencies,

currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) equal to the aggregate amount proposed to

be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons

entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the

proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall

cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor (i) to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Registered Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the

Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, and (ii) with respect to Bearer Securities of such series, to be published as provided for in Section 1.06. The Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company

34

Order, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a newspaper published in the English language customarily published on each Business

Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and

the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Registered Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close

of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).

(b) The Company may make

payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Registered Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required

by such exchange, if, after notice is given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.05, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of

transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

Section 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company,

the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and

(subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest, if any, on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected

by notice to the contrary.

Title to any Bearer Security and any coupons appertaining thereto shall pass by delivery. The Company, the

Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of any Bearer Security and the bearer of any coupon as the absolute owner of such Bearer Security or coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof

and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Bearer Security or coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Except as provided in Section 3.05, owners of beneficial interests in a Book-Entry Security shall not be entitled to have Securities

represented by such Book-Entry Security registered in their names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in certificated form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under this Indenture.

Members or participants in the Depositary shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Book-Entry Security held on their behalf by the Depositary, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and

35

any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the Holder of such Book-Entry Security under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Book-Entry Security, nothing herein

shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary, as a Holder, with respect to such Book-Entry Security or

impair, as between the Depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such Book-Entry Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Book-Entry Security.

None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of

the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Book-Entry Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for the delivery to any member

of or participants in the Depositary of any notice permitted or required to be given to the Holders of the Securities under this Indenture.

Section 3.09. Cancellation. All Securities and coupons surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange

or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and such Securities and coupons shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to

the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities

shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities and coupons held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee

unless other instructions are furnished to the Trustee by a Company Order.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Book-Entry

Security, nothing shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and

holders of beneficial interests in any Book-Entry Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Book-Entry Security.

Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the Securities of

any series, interest, if any, on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Section 3.11. Electronic Security Issuance. The Securities may, pursuant to a Board Resolution and Officers’ Certificate

complying with Section 3.01 hereof, be issued by means of an electronic issuance system. Any such Security issuance instructions may specify the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the Holder, the principal amount and Maturity

of the Security, the interest rate to be borne by the Security and any other terms not inconsistent with such Board Resolution and Officers’ Certificate. Nothing in this Section 3.11 shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from

issuing Securities by any means not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture.

36

Section 3.12. 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 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 a reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be

affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.

ARTICLE 4

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

Section 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect

with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such series herein expressly provided for the form of Security for such series and

any right to receive additional amounts, as provided in Section 11.09), and the Trustee, upon its receipt of such Company Request and at the expense of the Company, shall execute instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and

the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series: when

(a) either

(i) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered and all coupons, if any, appertaining thereto (other

than coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities surrendered for exchange for Registered Securities and maturing after such exchange, whose surrender is not required or has been waived as provided in Section 3.05, Securities of such series and

coupons appertaining thereto which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06, coupons appertaining to Securities of such series called for redemption and maturing after the relevant

Redemption Date, whose surrender has been waived as provided in Section 12.06 and Securities of such series and coupons appertaining thereto for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the

Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 11.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(ii) all such Securities of such series and, in the case of (A) or (B) below, any coupons appertaining thereto not

theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

37

(B) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or

(C) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of

notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company,

and the Company, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above, has

deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable,

sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities and coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, to the date of such deposit (in the case of

Securities which have become due and payable), or to the Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be;

(b) the Company has

(c) the Company has delivered

either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities for

which payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee or to make mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments as contemplated by Section 4.03; provided, that, such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the

extent required by applicable law.

38

Section 4.03. Discharge and Defeasance of Securities of any Series. If this

Section 4.03 is specified, as contemplated by Section 3.01, to be applicable to the Securities of any series, then, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.01, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire

indebtedness on all the Outstanding Securities of any such series on the 91st day after the date of the deposit referred to in subparagraph (d) hereof, and the provisions of this Indenture, as they relate to such Outstanding Securities, shall

no longer be in effect (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall upon Company Request, execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except as to:

contemplated by Section 3.01, to be applicable to the Securities of any series, the Company’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03;

provided that, the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

(i) money in an amount, or (ii) U.S. Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide not later than one Business Day before the due date of any payment

referred to in clause (A) or (B) of this subparagraph (d) money in an amount, or (iii) a combination thereof, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a

day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities;

to have a conflicting interest as defined in Section 6.08 or for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to the Securities of any series;

(f) such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any applicable laws, this Indenture or any other

agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;

(g) if this Section 4.03(g) is specified, as

contemplated by Section 3.01, to be applicable to the Securities of any series, such provision would not cause any Outstanding Securities of such series then listed on the New York Stock Exchange or other nationally recognized securities

exchange to be de-listed as a result thereof;

(h) no Event of Default or event which with the

giving of notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after

Section 4.03(c)(i), must be based on a change in applicable Federal income tax law after the date of this Indenture or a ruling published by the Internal Revenue Service after the date of this Indenture), the Holders of the Securities of such

series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would

have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred; and

(j) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an

Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the defeasance contemplated by this Section have been complied with.

ARTICLE 5

REMEDIES

any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be 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):

(a) default in the payment of any installment of interest upon any

Security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or

40

(b) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security of that

series at its Maturity; or

(c) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that

series; or

(d) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant

or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of a particular series of Securities other than that

series) and continuance of such default or breach 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 that 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

(e) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an

involuntary case in respect of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or (B) a decree or order appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,

sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in

effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

(f) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy,

insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or the consent by it to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case in respect of it under any such law, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking

possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(g) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series.

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series

at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in any such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of

that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all of the Securities of that 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) shall become immediately due and payable.

41

Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the requisite amount of Holders

(as determined pursuant to this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such

omission shall be effective.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to 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 in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to

the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

(a) the Company has paid or deposited with

the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay in the currency, currency unit or composite currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series):

(i) all overdue installments of interest on all Securities of that series,

(ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such

declaration of acceleration and interest, if any, thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities,

(iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful interest upon any overdue installments of interest at the rate or

rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and

(iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the

compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

(b) all Events of Default with respect to

Securities of that series, other than the nonpayment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. The Company covenants that if

(a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default

continues for a period of 30 days, or

42

(b) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security

at its Maturity,

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and coupons, the whole amount

then due and payable on such Securities and coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and

on any overdue installments of 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 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 decreed 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 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 and any related coupons 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 5.04. Trustee May File Proof 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 premium, if any) and interest, if any, 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and of the Holders of Securities and coupons allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

43

(b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such

claims and to distribute the same;

and any receiver, assignee, custodian, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such

judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities and coupons 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 of Securities and coupons,

to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel), and any other amounts due the Trustee under

Section 6.07.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on

behalf of any Holder of a Security or coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or coupons or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of

any Holder of a Security or coupon in any such proceeding.

Section 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of

Securities or Coupons. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities or coupons may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or coupons 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 compensation, expenses,

disbursements and advances of the Trustee (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel), be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities and coupons in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. The

Trustee shall be entitled to participate, in its capacity as Trustee, on behalf of (and at the written request of) the Holders, as a member of any official committee of creditors in the matters it deems advisable.

Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 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 premium, if any) or interest, if any, upon presentation of the Securities or coupons or both and the notation

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

First: To the payment of all amounts due the

Trustee and any agent hereunder under Section 6.07;

Second: To the payment of then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if

any) and interest, if any, on the Securities and coupons 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

and coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and

Third: The balance, if any, to the Company.

44

Section 5.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series or

any related coupons 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 that

series;

(b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that 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 indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity and/or security 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 that series;

it being

understood and intended that no one or more of the Holders of Securities of such series shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any

other such Holders of, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other 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 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision

in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security or coupon shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest, if any, on such

security or payment of such coupon on the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security or coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) 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 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any

Holder of any Security or coupon 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 the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of such Securities and coupons shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, 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.

45

Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with

respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or coupons in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or

coupons 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 prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security or coupon 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 or by law to the

Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or coupons may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities or coupons as the case may be.

Section 5.12. Control by Holders. Subject to Section 6.03(e), 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,

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

(c) the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Securities of

such series not joining therein (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders); and

(d) prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Trustee may demand security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it in accordance with

Section 6.03 hereof.

Nothing in this Indenture shall impair the right of the Trustee in its discretion to take any action deemed

proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction by the Holders.

Section 5.13. Waiver of Past

Defaults. 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 and any related coupons waive any past default hereunder with

respect to the Securities of such series and its consequences, except a default:

(a) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if

any) or interest, if any, on any Securities of such series, or

46

(b) with respect to a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 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 5.14. Undertaking For Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security or coupon by his

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 for the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, or 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 of any Security or coupon for the enforcement of the payment of the

principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security or the payment of any coupon on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Security or coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will

not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of

this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the

Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

ARTICLE 6

THE TRUSTEE

Section 6.01. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the

Securities of any series,

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set

forth in this Indenture with respect to such series, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read

into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

47

(ii) in the absence of willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may

conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such

certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(b) In case an Event of Default has occurred with respect to Securities of any series and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such

of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture with respect to such series of Securities, 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.

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent

action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct: except that

(i) this Subsection

shall not be construed to limit the effect of Subsection (a) of this Section;

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable

for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series; and

(iv) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial

liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder 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 indemnity and/or security against such risk or

liability is not assured to it.

conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

48

Section 6.02. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any

Default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 7.03(c), notice of such Default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee,

unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security of such series, or in the

payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the

Holders of Securities of such series, and provided, further, that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 5.01(d) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until

at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof. “Default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series.

taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of willful misconduct on its part, rely upon an Opinion of Counsel or an Officers’ Certificate and

such Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof and in circumstances therewith;

and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

(e) 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 pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders of Securities of any series or related coupons shall have offered to the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and

liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

49

(f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters

stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, calculation or quotation, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the

Trustee may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises

of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

(j) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, 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 by the Trustee to act hereunder;

(k) any permissive right or power attributable to the Trustee under this Indenture or under any supplement hereto shall not be construed as a

mandatory duty or obligation and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct with respect to such permissive rights;

(l) the Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/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 certificate previously delivered and not superseded; and

50

(m) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds, give any bond or

surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder, or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, 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 indemnity and/or security against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

Section 6.04. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except

the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this

Indenture or of the Securities or the coupons, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it

in its Statements of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of

Securities or the proceeds thereof. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement or recital in any offering prospectus or other disclosure materials prepared or distributed with respect to the Securities (other

than the Form T-1).

Section 6.05. May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying Agent,

any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities or coupons and, subject to Sections 6.08 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same

rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

Section 6.06. Money Held in

Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise

agreed in writing with the Company.

Section 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees:

(a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by

any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein,

to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents

and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable

decision); and

51

(c) to indemnify the Trustee, its agents, officers, directors, employees and counsel for,

and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their part (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable

decision), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance

of any of their powers or duties hereunder (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel), whether asserted by any Holder or otherwise.

The obligations of the Company under this Section shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and

discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular

Securities, and the Securities are hereby subordinated to such senior claim.

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after

an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or (f) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any

bankruptcy law.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the

Trustee and the satisfaction, termination or discharge of this Indenture. The indemnification provided in this Section 6.07 shall also extend to any successor Trustee hereunder.

Section 6.08. Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the

meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture.

Section 6.09. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a

corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least

$50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal, State or District of Columbia authority and having its Corporate Trust Office in the United States of America. If the Trustee publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant

to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of the Trustee shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most

recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no

appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.11.

52

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series

by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the

resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal

amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If any instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of

removal, the removed Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(d) If at any time:

(i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written request therefor by the

Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months; or

(ii) the Trustee

shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder; or

(iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or

of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to

Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with

respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

The Company may also remove the Trustee with or without

cause if the Company so notifies the Trustee in writing six months in advance of such removal date and if no Event of Default occurs during the six-month period.

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause,

with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor

Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the

53

applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the

Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith

upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by

the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities of that series and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any

Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months, subject to Section 5.14, may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction

for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(f) The Company shall give notice of each

resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series in the manner provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include

the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

(g) For

the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the replacement or removal of the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.10, the Company’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect

to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee

shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such

retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of the charges due it pursuant to Section 6.07, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign,

transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and

confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee

with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein

each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights,

54

powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring

Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that

or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall 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, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and

that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation

or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring

Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such

successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

(c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and

confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and

eligible under this Article.

Section 6.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any corporation into

which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially

all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further

act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In a case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt

such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

Section 6.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the

Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). A Trustee who has resigned or been

removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent provided therein.

55

Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an

Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue or upon exchange, registration of transfer

or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder.

Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the

Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of

condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined

capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign

immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged

or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate

trust business of such Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the

Trustee or such Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and

to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or

in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall promptly give

notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities pursuant to Section 1.06. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor

hereunder with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

56

The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time compensation

including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for its services under this Section.

If an appointment with respect to one or more

series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

U.S. BANK TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee

By:

Authenticating Agent

If the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance

located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not

be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), shall appoint (at the expense of the Company) in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect to such series of

Securities.

application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders of Securities of such series with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Securities of such series and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy

or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall within five business days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either

opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the Holders of Registered Securities of such series or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the

Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such

objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders of

Registered Securities of such series with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.

58

(c) Every Holder of Securities or coupons, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with

the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee, nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of

Registered Securities in accordance with Section 7.02(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under

(a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or any interest on, any Security, or reduce the

principal amount thereof or any rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or

62

change any obligation of the Company to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 11.09 (except as contemplated by Section 8.01(a) and permitted by Section 9.01(a)), or reduce the

amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Stated Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02, or change the method in which amounts of payments of

principal or any interest thereon are determined, or change any Place of Payment, or change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or any interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of

any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); or

(b) reduce

the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (or compliance with certain

provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture; or

(c) modify any of

the provisions of this Section, Section 5.13 or Section 11.08, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each

Outstanding Security affected thereby, provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder of a Security or coupon with respect to changes in the references to “the Trustee” and

concomitant changes in this Section and Section 11.08, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.11(b) and Section 9.01(h); or

(d) change any obligation of the Company to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes specified in Section 11.02.

A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included

solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this

Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series, provided, however, that any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of this Indenture relating to subordination of Securities of any series that materially adversely affects the

rights of the Holders of such Securities will be subject to Section 10.14.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under

this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental

indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon,

63

an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and that such supplemental indenture,

when executed and delivered by the Company, will constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which

affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.04. Effect

of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and

every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder and of any coupons appertaining thereto shall be bound thereby.

Section 9.05. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to

the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

Section 9.06. Reference in Securities to Supplemental

Indentures. Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form acceptable to the Trustee as to any

matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the

Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series.

ARTICLE 10

SUBORDINATION

Section 10.01. Agreement to Subordinate. Except as otherwise provided in a supplemental indenture or pursuant to Section 3.01

or this Section 10.01, the Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Security agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article 10, to

the prior payment in full of all amounts due and payable in respect of all Senior Debt and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt.

64

Section 10.02. Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy. Upon any distribution to

creditors of the Company in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership, arrangement, adjustment, composition or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, in an

assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities:

(a) holders of Senior Debt will

be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal, interest, penalties, fees, indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities payable under the documentation governing any indebtedness due in respect of such Senior Debt

(including interest after the commencement of any bankruptcy proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt), or provision shall be made for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the

holders of such Senior Debt, before the Holders will be entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind, whether in cash, property or securities with respect to the Securities; and

(b) until all principal, interest, penalties, fees, indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities payable under the

documentation governing any indebtedness due with respect to Senior Debt (as provided in clause (a) above) are paid in full, any payment or distribution to which Holders would be entitled but for this Article 10 will be made to holders of

Senior Debt, as their interests may appear.

Section 10.03. Default on Designated Senior Debt.

(a) The Company may not make any payment or distribution to the Trustee or any Holder in respect of principal, interest, penalties, fees,

indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities payable under the documentation governing any indebtedness due with respect to the Securities and may not acquire from the Trustee or any Holder any Securities for cash or property

until all principal and other principal, interest, penalties, fees, indemnifications, reimbursements, damages and other liabilities payable under the documentation governing any indebtedness due with respect to the Senior Debt have been paid in full

if:

(i) a payment default on any Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing; or

(ii) any other default occurs and is continuing on any series of Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of that series of Designated

Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a written notice of such default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from the Company or the holders of any Designated Senior Debt. If the Trustee receives any such Payment

Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice will be effective for purposes of this Section 10.03 unless and until at least 360 days have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice.

No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee may be, or may be

made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default has been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 days.

65

(b) The Company may and will resume payments on and distributions in respect of the

Securities and may acquire them upon the earlier of:

(i) in the case of a payment default on any Designated Senior Debt, upon the date

upon which such default is cured or waived, and

(ii) in the case of any other default on any Designated Senior Debt in respect of which

the Trustee has received a Payment Blockage Notice, upon the earlier of the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or ceases to exist and 179 days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless

the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated,

if this Article 10 otherwise permits such payment, distribution or acquisition at the

time of such payment, distribution or acquisition.

Section 10.04. Acceleration of Securities. If payment of the Securities is

accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company will promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration.

Section 10.05. When Distribution Must Be Paid Over. In the event that the Trustee or any Holder of the Securities receives any

payment of any obligations with respect to the Securities at a time when the payment is prohibited by Section 10.03 hereof and a Responsible Officer or the Holder, as applicable, has actual knowledge that the payment is prohibited by

Section 10.03 hereof, such payment will be held by the Trustee or such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and will be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, the holders of Senior Debt as their interests may appear, their

Representative under the agreement, indenture or other document (if any) pursuant to which Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee or custodian for

application to the payment of all obligations with respect to Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such obligations in full in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or

for the holders of Senior Debt.

With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only those

obligations or covenants on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set forth in this Article 10, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The

Trustee will not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt, and will not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee pays over or distributes to or on behalf of Holders or the Company or any other Person money or assets to

which any holders of Senior Debt are then entitled by virtue of this Article 10, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Trustee.

The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 10 with respect to any Senior Debt at the time held by it, to the

same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series to the contrary, nothing in

this Article 10 shall apply to claims of or payment to the Trustee under or pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, including, without limitation, any claims for indemnification under Section 6.07 hereof.

66

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the

Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 10 shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for

all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 10.12 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate

acts as Paying Agent.

Section 10.06. Notice by Company. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of

any facts known to the Company that would cause a payment of any obligations with respect to the Securities to violate this Article 10 or would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities, but failure to give

such notice will not affect the subordination of the Securities to the Senior Debt as provided in this Article 10.

Section 10.07.

Subrogation. Until the Securities are paid in full, Holders will be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other indebtedness pari passu with the Securities) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable

to Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article 10 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders is

not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company on the Securities.

Section 10.08. Relative Rights. This

Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture will:

(a) affect the relative

rights of Holders and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt;

(b) prevent the Trustee or

any Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders; or

(c) prevent the redemption of the Securities pursuant to and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 12.04.

Section 10.09. Subordination May Not Be Impaired. No right of any present or future holder of Senior Debt to enforce the

subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities may be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company, any such holder or any Holder or by the failure of the Company or any Holder to comply with this Indenture, regardless of any

knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

Section 10.10. Distribution or Notice to

Representative. Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their representative.

67

Section 10.11. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate. Upon any payment or

distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 10, the Trustee and the Holders will be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such

Representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt

and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof due or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 10.

Section 10.12. Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 10 or any other provision of

this Indenture, the Trustee will not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the

Securities, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received at its Corporate Trust Office at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any obligations with respect to

the Securities to violate this Article 10 and such notice references the Company, the Securities and this Indenture; and prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts

exist; provided, however, that if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall not have received, at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such money may become payable for any purpose (including,

without limitation, the payment of the principal amount, issue price, Redemption Price, purchase price or interest, if any and in each case to the extent applicable, as the case may be, in respect of the Securities), the notice with respect to such

money provided for in this Article 10, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received and

shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within three Business Days prior to such date. Only the Company or a Representative may give the notice. Nothing in this Article 10 will impair the claims of, or

payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof.

Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Trustee shall

be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Representative to establish that a notice has been given by a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee or agent on behalf of any such holder). In the event that the Trustee

determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of Representative to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 10, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the

reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by the Representative, the extent to which the Representative is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such

Person under this Article 10, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment which it may be required to make for the benefit of the Representative pursuant to the terms of this Indenture pending judicial determination as

to the rights of such Person to receive such payment.

68

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with the same

rights as set forth in this Article 10 as it would have if it were not Trustee. Any agent of the Trustee may do the same with like rights.

Section 10.13. Authorization to Effect Subordination. Each Holder, by the Holder’s acceptance of a Security, authorizes and

directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 10, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in

Section 5.04 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders.

Section 10.14. Amendments. Any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of this Article 10 that adversely affects the rights of

the Holders of Securities of a series will require the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of Securities of such series then outstanding.

ARTICLE 11

COVENANTS

Section 11.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of

Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of Securities, any coupons appertaining thereto and this

Indenture. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, any interest due on Bearer Securities on or before Maturity shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the several

coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature.

Section 11.02. Maintenance of Office or

Agency. If Securities of a series are issuable as or exchangeable for Registered Securities, the Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for such series an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered

for payment where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company with respect to the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served, any one or

more of which offices or agencies may be the same for one or more series of Securities.

If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer

Securities, the Company will maintain (a) in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where any Registered Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where any Registered Securities of that

series may be surrendered for registration of transfer, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for exchange, where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that

69

series and this Indenture may be served and where Bearer Securities of that series and related coupons may be presented or surrendered for payment in the circumstances described in the following

paragraph (and not otherwise), (b) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series which is located outside the United States, an office or agency where Bearer Securities of that series, and related

coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any additional amounts payable on Securities of that series pursuant to Section 11.09); provided, however, that if the Securities of that series are listed

on the International Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland Limited, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such securities exchange shall so require, the Company

will maintain a Paying Agent for the Securities of that series in London, Luxembourg or any other required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of that series are listed on such exchange, and

(c) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, in a Place of Payment for that series located outside the United States an office or agency where any Registered Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of

transfer, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served.

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and prompt notice to the Holders of Securities of such series, as provided in

Section 1.06 of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency in respect of any series of Securities or shall fail to furnish

the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related coupons may be presented and

surrendered for payment (including payment of any additional amounts payable on Bearer Securities of that series pursuant to Section 11.09) at any Place of Payment for such series located outside the United States and the Company hereby

appoints the Trustee its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

No payment of principal, premium or

interest on Bearer Securities shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the United States or by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in the United States;

provided, however, that, if the Securities of a series are denominated and payable in Dollars, payment of principal of and any premium and interest on any Bearer Security (including any additional amounts payable on Securities of such

series pursuant to Section 11.09) and payment of any coupon related thereto shall be made at the office of the Company’s Paying Agent in the United States, if (but only if) payment in Dollars of the full amount of such principal, premium,

interest or additional amounts, as the case may be, at all offices or agencies outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other

similar restrictions.

70

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in

or outside any Place of Payment) where the Securities of one or more series and any related coupons may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes 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 obligation to maintain an office or agency for Securities of any series and related coupons 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 location of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to a series of Securities, the

Company hereby designates as a Place of Payment for each series of Securities, each of (i) the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and (ii) the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee (as Paying

Agent); and the Company hereby initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as Paying Agent hereunder.

Unless otherwise

specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, if and for so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Foreign Currency, or (ii) may be payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long as it is

required under any other provisions of the Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, at least one exchange rate agent (of which it shall give written notice to the Trustee).

Section 11.03. Money For Security Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with

respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any of the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled

thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such

series) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or

failure so to act.

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it will, prior to each due

date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum (in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies described in the

preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying

Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

71

The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee

to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on Securities of that series in

trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any

payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Securities of that series; and

(c) at any time during the

continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or

by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such

Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and

premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Security of any series or the payment of any related coupon and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or 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 trust; and the Holder of such

Security or any coupon appertaining thereto 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 at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an

Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment, notice 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 publication, 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.

Section 11.04. Restrictions on Secured Debt. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities, other

than any series established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or in one or more supplemental indentures hereto which specifically provides otherwise, that it will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume,

or guarantee any loans, whether or not evidenced by negotiable instruments or securities, or any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (loans, and notes, bonds, debentures or

72

other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed being hereinafter in this Section 11.04 called “Debt”), secured after the date hereof by pledge of, or mortgage or lien

on, any Principal Property of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or any shares of Capital Stock of or Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary (mortgages, pledges and liens being hereinafter in this Section 11.04 called “Mortgage” or

“Mortgages”), without effectively providing that the Securities other than Securities of a series not entitled to the benefits of this covenant (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Debt of the Company or such

Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not subordinate to the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or, at the option of the Company, prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so

secured, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such secured Debt plus all Attributable Debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to sale and leaseback transactions to which Section 11.05 is

applicable would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Assets; provided, however, that this Section 11.04 shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from secured Debt in any computation under this Section 11.04, Debt

secured by:

(a) Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of Capital Stock of or Debt of, any corporation existing at the time such

corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(b) Mortgages in favor of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;

(c) Mortgages in favor of any governmental body to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any

statute;

(d) Mortgages on property, shares of Capital Stock or Debt existing at the time of acquisition thereof (including acquisition

through merger or consolidation) or to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price thereof or construction thereon or to secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after the later of the acquisition of such

property, shares of Capital Stock or Debt or the completion of construction for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof or construction thereon;

(e) Mortgages securing obligations issued by a State, territory or possession of the United States, any political subdivision of any of the

foregoing, or the District of Columbia, or any instrumentality of any of the foregoing to finance the acquisition or construction of property, and on which the interest is not, in the opinion of tax counsel of recognized standing or in accordance

with a ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service, includible in gross income of the holder by reason of Section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor to such provision) as in effect at the time of the issuance of such

obligations;

(f) Mechanics’, materialmen’s, carriers’ or other like liens arising in the ordinary course of business

(including construction of facilities) in respect of obligations which are not due or which are being contested in good faith;

73

(g) Any mortgage arising by reason of deposits with, or the giving of any form of security

to, any governmental agency or any body created or approved by law or governmental regulations which is required by law or governmental regulation as a condition to the transaction of any business, or the exercise of any privilege, franchise or

license;

(h) Mortgages for taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies not yet delinquent, or mortgages for taxes, assessments

or governmental charges or levies already delinquent but the validity of which is being contested in good faith;

(i) Mortgages (including

judgment liens) arising in connection with legal proceedings so long as such proceedings are being contested in good faith and, in the case of judgment liens, execution thereon is stayed; and

(j) Any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage

referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) to (i), inclusive; provided, however, that such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or part of the same property, shares of Capital Stock or Debt that secured

the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

Section 11.05. Restrictions on Sales and

Leasebacks. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities, other than any series established by or pursuant to a Board Resolution or in one or more supplemental indentures hereto which specifically provides

otherwise, that it will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any transaction after the date hereof with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor, or to which any such bank, company, lender or

investor is a party, providing for the leasing by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of any Principal Property which has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such bank, company, lender or investor,

or to any Person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such bank, company, lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property (herein referred to as a “sale and leaseback transaction”) unless, after giving effect

thereto, the aggregate amount of all Attributable Debt with respect to all such transactions plus all secured Debt to which Section 11.04 is applicable would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Assets. This covenant shall not apply to, and there

shall be excluded from Attributable Debt in any computation under this Section 11.05, Attributable Debt with respect to any sale and leaseback transaction if:

(a) the lease in such sale and leaseback transaction is for a period, including renewal rights, of not in excess of five years; or

(b) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, within 180 days after the sale or transfer shall have been made by the Company or by a Restricted

Subsidiary applies an amount equal to the greater of the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Property leased pursuant to such arrangement or the fair market value of the Principal Property so leased at the time of entering into such

arrangement (as determined in any manner approved by

74

the Board of Directors) to (i) the retirement of the Securities or other Funded Debt of the Company ranking on a parity with or senior to the Securities, or the retirement of the securities

or other Funded Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the amount to be applied to the retirement of such Funded Debt of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary shall be reduced by (x) the principal amount of any

Securities (or other notes or debentures constituting such Funded Debt) delivered within such 180-day period to the Trustee or other applicable trustee for retirement and cancellation and (y) the

principal amount of such Funded Debt, other than items referred to in the preceding clause (x), voluntarily retired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary within 180 days after such sale; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding

the foregoing, no retirement referred to in this clause (i) may be effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund payment or any mandatory prepayment provision, or (ii) the purchase of other property which will

constitute a Principal Property having a fair market value, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, at least equal to the fair market value of the Principal Property leased in such sale and leaseback transaction; or

(c) such sale and leaseback transaction is entered into prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after the later of the acquisition of the

Principal Property or the completion of construction thereon; or

(d) the lease in such sale and leaseback transaction secures or relates

to obligations issued by a State, territory or possession of the United States, or any political subdivision of any of the foregoing, the District of Columbia, or any instrumentality of any of the foregoing to finance the acquisition or construction

of property, and on which the interest is not, in the opinion of tax counsel of recognized standing or in accordance with a ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service, includible in gross income of the holder by reason of Section 103(a) of

the Internal Revenue Code (or other successor to such provision) as in effect at the time of the issuance of such obligations; or

(e)

such sale and leaseback transaction is entered into between the Company and a Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 11.06. Statement as to Compliance. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal

year of the Company ending after the date of the first issuance of Securities hereunder (which fiscal year as of the date hereof ends August 1, 2027), an Officers’ Certificate, stating, as to each signer thereof, that

(a) a review of the activities of the Company during such year and of performance under this Indenture has been made under his supervision and

(b) to the best of his knowledge, based on such review, the Company is not in default in the fulfillment of any of its obligations under

this Indenture, or specifying each such default known to him and the nature and status thereof.

The Company shall, so long as any of the

Securities are outstanding, deliver to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, within five (5) Business Days after the chief financial officer, the Treasurer, or the Controller obtains actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, an

Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default.

75

Section 11.07. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 8, the Company will do or

cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.

Section 11.08.

Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision, covenant or condition set forth in Sections 11.04 and 11.05, inclusive, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at

least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision, covenant or condition, but no

such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision, covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee with respect to

any such term, provision, covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 11.09. Additional Amounts. If

the Securities of a series provide for the payment of additional amounts, the Company will pay to the Holder of any Security of such series or any coupon appertaining thereto additional amounts as provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there

is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or payment of any related coupon or the net proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Security of any

series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of additional amounts provided for in this Section to the extent that, in such context, additional amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the

provisions of this Section and express mention of the payment of additional amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding additional amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

If the Securities of a series provide for the payment of additional amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date

with respect to that series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series will not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal and any premium is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of

principal and any premium or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, the Company will furnish the Trustee and the Company’s principal Paying Agent or

Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, with an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of and any premium or interest on the Securities of that series shall be

made to Holders of Securities of that series or any related coupons who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such

withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities or coupons and the Company will pay to the Trustee or such

Paying Agent the additional amounts required by this Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful

misconduct on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section.

76

Section 11.10. Calculation of Original Issue Discount. If any series is issued

with Original Issue Discount, the Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding

Securities as of the end of such year.

ARTICLE 12

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

Section 12.01. Applicability of This Article. Securities of any series which are redeemable before their stated Maturity shall be

redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

Section 12.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a

Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be

satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and the redemption price for such Securities, such notice to be accompanied by a written statement

signed by an Authorized Officer of the Company stating that no defaults in the payment of interest or Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series have occurred (which have not been waived or cured). In the case of any redemption

of Securities (i) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, or (ii) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition or

computation specified in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction, condition or computation.

In the event that any election by the Company necessitates the retention of any agent by the Trustee, the Company agrees that such retention

shall be at the sole expense of the Company.

Section 12.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. If less than

all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the applicable Depositary, from

the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and subject to and otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the applicable

Depositary) and which may provide for

77

the selection for redemption of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of

such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that series or of portions of the principal amount of global Securities of such series.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for

redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all

purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of

such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 12.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given

in the manner provided in Section 1.06 not less than 10 and not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed.

All notices of redemption shall include the CUSIP number and state:

(a) the Redemption Date;

(b)

the Redemption Price and any accrued interest;

(c) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the

identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed;

(d) that on

the Redemption Date the Redemption Price, and any accrued interest thereon will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date;

(e) the place or places where such Securities are, together in the case of Bearer Securities with all coupons appertaining thereto, if any,

maturing after the Redemption Date, to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and any accrued interest thereon;

(f) if such

be the case, that the installment of interest on Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity is the Redemption Date is payable to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record

Date immediately preceding the Redemption Date; and

(g) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case.

78

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed shall be given by the Company or, at the

Company’s written request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. In the event that the Company shall request that the Trustee send out a notice of redemption on its behalf, it shall make such request in writing and

provide the form of the notice of redemption to the Trustee at least 5 Business Days before such notice of redemption is to be sent.

Section 12.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall

deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 11.03) an amount of money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or

composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price of, and

(except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

Section 12.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of Redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be

redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable

(except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) together with any accrued interest thereon and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and

accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon surrender of any such Securities for

redemption in accordance with said notice, such Securities shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with any accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that any installments of interest on Bearer

Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States (except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02) and, unless otherwise specified as

contemplated by Section 3.01, only upon presentation and surrender of coupons for such interest, and provided, further, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, installments of interest on Registered

Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to

their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

If any Bearer Security which is to be redeemed in whole or in part (as set forth in

Section 12.07), surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant coupons maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all

such missing coupons, or the surrender of such missing coupon or coupons may be waived by the Company or jointly by the Company and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such security and/or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and

any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive

the amount so deducted; provided, however, that interest represented by coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons at an office or agency located outside of the United States except as otherwise

provided in Section 11.02.

79

If the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest on

any Security called for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) of such Security shall, until paid or until payment is provided for in accordance herewith, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate, if any, prescribed therefor in

the Security. So long as it is known to the Trustee that an Event of Default is continuing hereunder, the Trustee shall not redeem any Securities of any series pursuant to this Article (unless all Outstanding Securities of such series are to be

redeemed) or mail or give any notice of redemption of Securities except that, where the mailing of notice of redemption of any Securities shall theretofore have been made, the Trustee shall redeem or cause to be redeemed such Securities provided

that it shall have received from the Company a sum sufficient for such redemption. Except as aforesaid, any monies theretofore or thereafter received by the Trustee shall, during the continuance of such Event of Default, be deemed to have been

collected under Article 5 and held for the payment of all such Securities. In case such Event of Default shall have been waived as provided in Section 5.13 or the default cured on or before the sixtieth day preceding the Redemption Date, such

monies shall thereafter be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Article.

Section 12.07. Securities Redeemed in

Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the

Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) together, in the case of Bearer Securities, with all coupons appertaining thereto maturing after the Redemption Date and the Company shall

execute and upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as

requested by the Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute and upon a Company

Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the depository at the expense of the Company and without service charge, a new global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the global

Security so surrendered.

ARTICLE 13

SINKING FUNDS

Section 13.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement

of Securities of a series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series.

80

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of

any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of the Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund

payment”. If provided for by the terms of the Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 13.02. Each sinking fund payment made on the Securities of a series

shall be applied to the redemption of the Securities of such series as provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series.

Section 13.02. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The Company (a) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a

series (other than any previously called for redemption), together in the case of any Bearer Securities of such series with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto and (b) may apply as a credit the Securities of a series which have been

redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part

of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that such Securities have not been previously so

credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be

reduced accordingly.

Section 13.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 60 days or such other shorter

period as may be acceptable to the Trustee prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment

for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such

series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to

Section 13.02 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in

the manner specified in Section 12.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 12.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of

such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 12.06 and 12.07.

ARTICLE 14

MEETINGS OF HOLDERS OF SECURITIES

Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series.

81

Section 14.02. Call, Notice and Place of Meetings. (a) The Trustee may at any

time call a meeting of Holders of Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities or as Bearer Securities and Registered Securities for any purpose specified in Section 14.01, to be held at such time and at such place in the Borough of

Manhattan, the City of New York, or in London as the Trustee shall determine. Notice of every meeting of Holders of Securities of any series, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken

at such meeting, shall be given, in the manner provided in Section 1.06, not less than 21 nor more than 180 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

(b) In case at any time the Company, pursuant to a Board Resolution, or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding

Securities of any series issuable as Bearer Securities or as Bearer Securities and Registered Securities shall have requested the Trustee to call a meeting of the Holders of Securities of such series for any purpose specified in Section 14.01,

by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have made the first publication of the notice of such meeting within 21 days after receipt of such request or shall not

thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the Company or the Holders of Securities of such series in the amount above specified, as the case may be, may determine the time and the place in the Borough of Manhattan,

the City of New York, or in London for such meeting and may call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof as provided in subsection (a) of this Section.

to a consent or waiver which this Indenture or the terms of such series expressly provides may be given by the Holders of not less than a specified percentage of the principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series, the Persons entitled to

vote such specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the time appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the

request of Holders of Securities of such series, be dissolved. In any other case the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 days as determined by the

82

chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such meeting. In the absence of a quorum at any such adjourned meeting, such adjourned meeting may be further adjourned for a period of not

provided, however, that, except as limited by the proviso to Section 9.02, any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which this Indenture or the terms of

such series expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the Holders of a specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a

quorum is present as aforesaid by the affirmative vote of the Holders of such specified percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series.

Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly held in accordance with this Section shall

be binding on all the Holders of Securities of such series and the related coupons, whether or not present or represented at the meeting.

Section 14.05. Determination of Voting Rights; Conduct and Adjournment of Meetings. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of

this Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for any meeting of Holders of Securities of a series in regard to proof of the holding of Securities of such series and of the appointment of proxies and in

regard to the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate.

Except as otherwise permitted or required by any such regulations, the holding of Securities shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.04 and the appointment of any proxy shall be proved in the manner specified in Section 1.04

or by having the signature of the person executing the proxy witnessed or guaranteed by any trust company, bank or banker authorized by Section 1.04 to certify to the holding of Bearer Securities. Such regulations may provide that written

instruments appointing proxies, regular on their face, may be presumed valid and genuine without the proof specified in Section 1.04 or other proof.

(b) The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by

the Company or by Holders of Securities as provided in Section 14.02(b), in which case the Company or the Holders of Securities of the series calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like manner appoint a temporary chairman. A

permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting shall be elected by vote of the Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting.

83

(c) At any meeting each Holder of a Security of such series or proxy shall be entitled to

one vote for each $1,000 principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series held or represented by him; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting in respect of any Security challenged as not

Outstanding and ruled by the chairman of the meeting to be not Outstanding. The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote, except as a Holder of a Security of such series or proxy.

(d) Any meeting of Holders of Securities of any series duly called pursuant to Section 14.02 at which a quorum is present may be

adjourned from time to time by Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series represented at the meeting; and the meeting may be held as so adjourned without further notice.

Section 14.06. Counting Votes and Recording Action of Meetings. The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Holders

of Securities of any series shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the signatures of the Holders of Securities of such series or of their representatives by proxy and the principal amounts and serial numbers of the Outstanding

Securities of such series held or represented by them. The permanent chairman of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the

secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in duplicate, of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders of Securities of any series shall be prepared by the secretary of

the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the

meeting and showing that said notice was given as provided in Section 14.02 and, if applicable, Section 14.04. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent chairman and secretary of the meeting and one such

copy shall be delivered to the Company, and another to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters

therein stated.

Section 14.07. U.S.A. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of

the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that

establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may reasonably request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the

U.S.A. Patriot Act.

84

Section 14.08. Counterpart Originals. This instrument may be executed in any

number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 14.09. Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance

of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or

natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with

accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the

Securities discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Securities matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve

price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such

time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after

such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication)

(“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury

Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if

there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury

constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or

(3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable

Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

A-4

If on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published,

the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States

Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date

equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the

Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or

more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining

the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal

amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

The

Company’s actions and determination in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.]

all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

to the Company, any Paying Agent or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence or identity of a beneficial owner of such Bearer Security or coupon who is a United States Alien (as defined on the face hereof) (other than such a

requirement (a) which would not be applicable to a payment made by the Company or any one of its Paying Agents (i) directly to the beneficial owner or (ii) to any custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner, or

(b) which can be satisfied by the custodian, nominee or other agent certifying that the beneficial owner is a United States Alien, provided in each case referred to in clauses (a) (ii) and (b) that payment by such custodian, nominee or

other agent of such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement), the Company at its election will either (x) redeem the Securities as a whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price [equal to 100% of their principal

amount,] [determined as set forth in the next preceding paragraph,] together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, or (y) if and so long as the conditions of the [third] paragraph on the face of this Security are satisfied,

pay the additional amounts specified in such paragraph. The Company will make such determination and election and notify the Trustee thereof as soon as practicable, and the Trustee will promptly give notice of such determination in the manner

provided below (the “Determination Notice”), in each case stating the effective date of such certification, identification or other reporting requirement, whether the Company will redeem the Securities or will pay the additional

amounts specified in such paragraph and (if applicable) the last date by which the redemption of the Securities must take place. If the Company elects to redeem the Securities, such redemption shall take place on such date, not later than one year

after publication of the Determination Notice, as the Company elects by notice to the Trustee at least [60] days before such date, unless shorter notice is acceptable to the Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not so redeem the

Securities if the Company, based upon an opinion of independent counsel, subsequently determines, not less than [30] days prior to the date fixed for redemption, that subsequent payments would not be subject to any such requirement, in which case

the Company will notify the Trustee, which will promptly give notice of that determination in the manner provided below, and any earlier redemption notice will thereupon be revoked and of no further

redeem the Securities, at any time, as a whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price [equal to 100% of their principal amount] [determined as set forth in the next preceding paragraph,] together with interest accrued to the date fixed for

redemption, but without reduction for applicable United States withholding taxes.]

governmental authority of the nationality, residence or identity of a beneficial owner of such Bearer Security who is a United States Alien (as defined on the face hereof) (other than such a requirement (a) which would not be applicable to a

payment made by the Company or any one of its Paying Agents (i) directly to the beneficial owner or (ii) to any custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner, or (b) which can be satisfied by the custodian, nominee or

other agent certifying to the effect that such beneficial owner is a United States Alien, provided in each case referred to in clauses (a)(ii) and (b) that payment by such custodian, nominee or other agent of such beneficial owner is not

otherwise subject to any such requirement), the Company at its election will either (x) permit any Holder of a Bearer Security to present such Bearer Security for redemption within 90 days of notice of such redemption, at a Redemption Price

determined as set forth in the next preceding paragraph, or (y) if and so long as the conditions of the [fifth] paragraph on the face of this Security are satisfied, pay the additional amounts specified in such paragraph. The Company will make

such determination and election and notify the Trustee thereof as soon as practicable, and the Trustee will promptly give notice of such determination in the manner provided below (the “Determination Notice”), in each case stating

the effective date of such certification, identification or other reporting requirement, whether the Company has elected to permit redemption of the Bearer Securities or to pay the additional amounts specified in such paragraph and (if applicable)

the last day by which the Company may publish any notice of redemption. If the Company elects to permit redemption of the Bearer Securities, notice of the redemption will be given not more than 268 days following the Determination Notice and will

specify the date fixed for redemption. The Bearer Securities will be redeemed on the day 97 days after notice of the redemption has been given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not permit redemption of the Bearer Securities if the

Company, based upon an opinion of independent counsel, subsequently determines, not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, that no payment would be subject to any such requirement, in which case the Company will promptly notify

the Trustee, which will promptly give notice of that determination in the manner described below, and any earlier redemption notice will thereupon be revoked and of no further effect.]

GENERAL TERMS

AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

Section 2.01 Designation and Principal Amount. There is hereby authorized and established a

new series of Securities to be issued under the Indenture, to be designated as the Company’s “8.500% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due

2057” (the “Notes”), in the initial aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000,000, which amount shall be set forth in one or more Company Orders for the authentication and delivery of Notes pursuant to Section 3.03

of the Base Indenture. The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders or beneficial owners thereof, increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional Notes on the same terms and conditions as these

Notes (other than the date of issuance and the public offering price and, under certain circumstances, the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue and the initial Interest Payment Date), and with the same CUSIP numbers as these Notes;

provided that if any additional Notes subsequently issued are not fungible with any Notes previously issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number. The Notes and any additional Notes

issued on the same terms and conditions shall rank equally and ratably and shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture.

6

Section 2.02 Final Maturity Date. The “Final Maturity Date”

of the Notes is April 5, 2057.

Section 2.03 Form and Payment; Minimum Transfer Restriction.

(a) The Notes shall be issued only as Registered Securities and, upon issuance, as one or more Book-Entry Securities, substantially in the

form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of the Indenture. The Company shall issue the Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Payment of

principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes and surrender for registration of transfer, exchange and service of notices and demands to or upon the Company may be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that

purpose in New York, New York. The Trustee is hereby appointed Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes.

(b) The Notes may be

transferred or exchanged in accordance with the terms of Sections 3.04 and 3.05 of the Base Indenture.

Section 2.04 Exchange and

Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfers; Depositary. The Notes will be issued to the Holders in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) So long as Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, or unless required by law, all Notes that are so eligible will

be represented by one or more Book-Entry Securities, and except as provided in Section 2.04(c) below, beneficial owners of a Book-Entry Security shall not be entitled to have Notes represented by such Book-Entry Securities registered in their

names, shall not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in certificated form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture.

(b) The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in Book-Entry Securities shall be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the

Indenture and the procedures and standing instructions of the Depositary and the Trustee shall make appropriate endorsements to reflect increases or decreases in principal amounts of such Book-Entry Securities.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.04(c)), a Book-Entry

Security may not be exchanged in whole or in part for Notes in definitive form, and no transfer of a Book-Entry Security may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary

(A) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Book-Entry Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is

required to be so registered to act as such Depositary, and no successor Depositary has been appointed by the Company within 90 days after its receipt of such notice or its becoming aware of such ineligibility, (ii) the Company, in its sole

discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depositary, instructs the Trustee in writing to exchange such Book-Entry Security for a Note that is not a Book-Entry Security (in which case such exchange (subject to such procedures) shall be

effected by the Trustee) or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing.

7

The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company

initially appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to the Book-Entry Securities. Initially, the Book-Entry Securities shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Trustee as

custodian for the Depositary.

Definitive Securities issued in exchange for all or a part of a Book-Entry Security pursuant to this

Section 2.04(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and

authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such definitive Securities to the Persons in whose names such definitive Securities are so registered.

So long as Notes are represented by one or more Book-Entry Securities, (i) the Security Registrar for the Notes and the Trustee shall be

entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of the Indenture relating to such Book-Entry Securities as the sole Holder of the Notes evidenced by such Book-Entry Securities and shall have no obligations to the holders of beneficial

interests in such Book-Entry Securities; and (ii) the rights of the holders of beneficial interests in such Book-Entry Securities shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements

between such holders and the Depositary and/or the participants in the Depositary.

At such time as all interests in a Book-Entry Security

have been paid, redeemed, exchanged, repurchased or canceled, such Book-Entry Security shall be canceled by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Book-Entry Security is

exchanged for definitive Securities, redeemed by the Company pursuant to Article 3 of this First Supplemental Indenture or canceled, or transferred for part of a Book-Entry Security, the principal amount of such Book-Entry Security shall, in

accordance with the standing procedures and instructions of the Depositary be reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Book-Entry Security by the Trustee to reflect such reduction or increase.

Section 2.05 Interest; Calculation Agent.

(a) Each Note will bear interest (i) from and including the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, the First Reset Date at the rate of

8.500% per year, which is the Initial Interest Rate, and (ii) from, and including, the First Reset Date, during each Reset Period, at a rate per year equal to the Five-Year U.S. Treasury Rate as of the Reset Interest Determination Date for such

Reset Period plus a spread of 3.511%, to be reset on each Reset Date; provided that the interest rate during any Reset Period will not reset below the Initial Interest Rate. Subject to the Company’s right to defer interest payments

described in Article 4 of this First Supplemental Indenture, interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. If interest payments are deferred

or otherwise not paid, such amounts will accrue interest and compound on each Interest Payment Date until paid at an annual rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the Notes, to the extent permitted by applicable law (“Compound

Interest”). The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The interest so payable will

be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered, at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided that interest payable at Maturity

8

will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for within five Business Days of such Interest Payment Date, and that is

not deferred pursuant to Article 4 hereof, will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular Record Date and shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or any Note issued upon registration of transfer or exchange thereof)

is registered at the close of business on the record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest established in accordance with Section 3.07 of the Base Indenture. The “Regular Record Date” for payment of interest will be

the close of business on the Business Day before the applicable Interest Payment Date, unless such Note is registered to a Holder other than the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, in which case the Regular Record Date for each Interest

Payment Date will be the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) before the applicable Interest Payment Date.

Unless the Company has validly called all of the Outstanding Notes for redemption on a Redemption Date occurring on or prior to the First

Reset Date, the Company will appoint a Calculation Agent for the Notes prior to the Reset Interest Determination Date immediately preceding the First Reset Date; provided that, if the Company has called all of the Outstanding Notes for

redemption on a Redemption Date occurring on or prior to the First Reset Date, but the Company does not redeem all of the Outstanding Notes on such Redemption Date, the Company will appoint a Calculation Agent for the Notes as promptly as

practicable after such proposed Redemption Date. The Company may terminate any such appointment and may appoint a successor Calculation Agent at any time and from time to time (so long as there will always be a Calculation Agent in respect of the

Notes when so required). The Company may appoint itself or any of its affiliates, and the Company or any of its affiliates may serve as, the Calculation Agent.

The applicable interest rate for each Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the applicable Reset Interest

Determination Date. Promptly upon such determination, the Calculation Agent will notify the Company of the interest rate for the Reset Period and the Company shall promptly notify in writing, or cause the Calculation Agent to promptly notify in

writing, the Trustee and each Paying Agent of such interest rate. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate, and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Reset Period beginning on or after the First Reset Date will be

on file at the Company’s principal offices, will be made available to any Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes upon request and will be final and binding in the absence of manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee nor

any Paying Agent will have any obligation to calculate, verify or confirm the applicable interest rate.

(b) If an Interest Payment Date,

Redemption Date or the Final Maturity Date of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal or interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date that payment was due, and no

interest on the amount so payable will accrue on that payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or the Final Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of the payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 2.06 No Sinking Fund. The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of, or subject to, any sinking fund.

9

Section 2.07 Agreement to Certain Tax Treatment. Each Holder and beneficial owner of

the Notes will, by accepting the Notes or a beneficial interest therein, be deemed to have agreed that the Holder or beneficial owner intends that the Notes constitute indebtedness and will treat the Notes as indebtedness for United States federal,

state and local tax purposes.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION OF THE NOTES

Notwithstanding anything in Article 12 of the Base Indenture to the contrary:

Section 3.01 Optional Redemption by Company. The Company shall have the option to redeem the Notes:

(a) in whole or in part on one or more occasions at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and

unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (i) on any day during the period commencing on the date that is 90 days prior to the First Reset Date and ending on and including the First Reset Date and (ii) after the First Reset

Date, on any Interest Payment Date;

(b) in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being

redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Tax Event;

(c) in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 102% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest

to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event;

(d) in whole,

but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Change of Control Redemption Date upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event as set

forth in Section 3.03 of this First Supplemental Indenture.

Section 3.02 Redemption Procedures.

(a) Installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on any Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date for

the Notes will be payable on that Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders thereof as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, except that, if the Redemption Date for

any Notes falls on any day during an Optional Interest Deferral Period, accrued and unpaid interest (including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any Compound Interest) on the Notes to be redeemed will be paid on such Redemption Date to the

Persons entitled to receive the redemption price of such Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Interest Payment Date falling immediately after the last day of an Optional Interest Deferral Period will not be deemed to fall on a day during such

Optional Interest Deferral Period.

10

(b) In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made

by lot or by such other method as the Trustee may deem fair and appropriate (in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary). No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Notes are to be redeemed in part

only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Notes will state the portion of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the

Holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

(c) Notice of any redemption shall be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s

procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date (including a Change of

Control Redemption Date), interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the

Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) or the Redemption Date may not occur at all and such notice may be

rescinded if all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion).

(d) For the avoidance

of doubt, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes included in the calculation of any applicable redemption price will include, if applicable, any interest that is deferred pursuant to Article 4 of this First Supplemental Indenture

(including Compound Interest).

(e) The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive

and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(f) The Company shall deposit with the Trustee or any Paying Agent an amount

sufficient to pay the applicable redemption price by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such redemption price is to be paid.

(g)

For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate, verify or confirm the redemption price.

Section 3.03 Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, the Company will have the right (but not the

obligation) to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01(d) of this First Supplemental Indenture. Unless the Company has otherwise previously or concurrently given a redemption notice to Holders of all Outstanding Notes pursuant to the

Company’s right to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Article 3, within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of

Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to each Holder of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will describe the Change of Control Triggering Event

and whether the Company has elected to redeem the Notes. If the Company elects to redeem the Notes, such notice will state, among other things, the Redemption Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such

notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”). The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the redemption is conditioned on

the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Redemption Date.

11

(b) If the Company does not exercise its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to

Section 3.01(d) of this First Supplemental Indenture within 60 days after such right first arises (or if the Company exercises such right but any Notes remain Outstanding), then the interest rate applicable to the Notes will increase by 500.0

basis points (5.0 percentage points) beginning on the first Interest Payment Date after the expiration of such 60-day period and the Company will provide notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Paying Agent

and the Trustee) of such interest rate increase. In the absence of such notice, the Paying Agent and the Trustee may conclusively and without liability assume the interest rate has not been increased.

(c) The following terms shall have the following meanings in this Section 3.03:

“Capital Stock,” as applied to the stock of any corporation, means the capital stock of every class whether now or hereafter

consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner, directly or

indirectly, of more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; provided that the consummation of any such transaction will not be considered to be a

Change of Control if (a) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (b) immediately following such transaction, (x) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of the holding

company are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to such transaction or (y) no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) is the beneficial

owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

“Change of Control Triggering

Event” means, with respect to the Notes, (i) the ratings on the Company’s then-existing senior unsecured notes are downgraded by each of the Ratings Agencies during the 60-day period (the

“Trigger Period”) commencing on the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a Change of Control or (b) the first public announcement of the occurrence of a Change of Control or the Company’s intention to effect a Change

of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended so long as the ratings on the then-existing senior unsecured notes are under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Ratings Agencies) and (ii)

12

the Company’s then-existing senior unsecured notes are rated below an Investment Grade rating by each of the Ratings Agencies on any date during the Trigger Period; provided that a

Change of Control Triggering Event will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control and the Notes if each Ratings Agency does not publicly announce or confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s

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 Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of

the Change of Control Triggering Event). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually

been consummated.

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any

successor rating category of Moody’s), a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) or an equivalent Investment Grade rating from any

replacement Ratings Agency appointed by the Company.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors

Service, Inc. and its successors.

“Ratings Agency” means each of Moody’s and S&P; provided that if

notes.

of any contingency).

ARTICLE 4

OPTION TO DEFER INTEREST PAYMENTS

Section 4.01 Option to Defer Interest Payments. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, so long as no Event of

Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, at the Company’s option, the Company may, on one or more occasions, defer payment of all or part of the current and accrued interest otherwise due on the Notes for a period of

up to 10 consecutive years (each period, commencing on the date that the first such interest payment would otherwise have been made on the Notes, an “Optional Interest Deferral Period”).

Any deferred interest will not be due or payable on the Notes during any Optional Interest Deferral Period unless the Company elects, at its

option, to redeem the Notes during such Optional Interest Deferral Period, in which case accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date will be due and payable on such Redemption Date only on the Notes being redeemed, or unless

the principal of and interest on the Notes shall have been declared due and payable as the result of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, in which case all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes shall become due and payable.

A deferral of interest payments may not end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date

and may not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date of the Notes, and the Company may not begin a new Optional Interest Deferral Period and may not pay current interest on the Notes until it has paid all accrued interest on the Notes from the previous

Optional Interest Deferral Period. Such accrued interest shall be payable to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided that

interest payable at Maturity will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. The Company may also elect, at its option, to shorten the length of any Optional Interest Deferral Period.

Any deferred interest on the Notes will accrue Compound Interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Once the Company pays all

deferred interest payments on the Notes, including any Compound Interest accrued on the deferred interest, it shall be entitled to again defer interest payments on the Notes as described above, but not beyond the Final Maturity Date of the Notes.

All references in the Indenture to “interest” on the Notes shall be deemed to include any such deferred interest and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any Compound Interest, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context

otherwise requires.

During an Optional Interest Deferral Period, the Company shall not do any of the following:

(a) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the

Company’s Capital Stock;

(b) make any payment of principal, interest or premium, if any, on, or repay, purchase or redeem any of

the Company’s indebtedness that ranks equally with, or junior to, the Notes in right of payment; or

(c) make any payments with

respect to any guarantee by the Company of any indebtedness if such guarantee ranks equally with, or junior to, the Notes in right of payment.

However, the foregoing provisions shall not prevent or restrict the Company from making:

(a) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of the Company’s Capital Stock in connection with:

(i) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers,

directors, consultants, agents or independent contractors of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates;

(ii)

the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract or security entered into prior to the beginning of such Optional Interest Deferral Period either (a) in the ordinary course of business or (b) other than in

anticipation of the commencement of the Optional Interest Deferral Period; or

14

(iii) a dividend reinvestment or shareholder purchase plan;

(b) any payment, dividend, distribution, purchase, repurchase, redemption, other acquisition, exchange, conversion or declaration of a

dividend or distribution as a result of any reclassification of the Company’s Capital Stock;

(c) any exchange, redemption or

conversion of any class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock, or the Capital Stock of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, for any other class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock, or of any class or series of the

Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock;

(d) any purchase, redemption or other

acquisition of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such Capital Stock or the securities being converted or exchanged, or in connection with the settlement of stock

purchase contracts outstanding on the date that the payment of interest is deferred or with any split, reclassification or similar transaction;

(e) any declaration of a dividend or distribution in connection with any shareholder rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other

property under any shareholder rights plan, or the redemption, exchange or purchase of rights pursuant thereto;

(f) any payment, dividend

or distribution made in the Company’s Capital Stock (or rights to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock), or repurchases, redemptions or acquisitions of Capital Stock in connection with the issuance or exchange of Capital Stock (or of

securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Company’s Capital Stock) and distributions in connection with the settlement of stock purchase contracts outstanding on the date that the payment of interest is deferred;

(g) any payments on the Notes, any trust preferred securities, subordinated debentures, junior subordinated debentures or other debt

securities, or any guarantees of any of the foregoing, in each case that rank equally in right of payment to the Notes (“Parity Securities”), made pro rata to the amounts due on such indebtedness, so long as the amount of payments

made on account of such securities or guarantees is paid on all such securities and guarantees then outstanding on a pro rata basis in proportion to the full payment to which each series of such securities and guarantees is then entitled if paid in

full;

(h) any payment on, or repayment, redemption or repurchase of, Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to

breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities; or

(i) any regularly scheduled dividend or distribution payments

declared prior to the date that the applicable Optional Interest Deferral Period commences.

Section 4.02 Notice of Deferral.

The Company shall give the Trustee written notice of its election to begin an Optional Interest Deferral Period at least one Business Day before the Regular Record Date for the first Interest Payment Date of such Optional Interest Deferral Period.

The notice shall contain an instruction for the Trustee to forward such notice to the Holders of the Notes. However, the Company’s failure to pay interest on any Interest Payment Date will itself

15

constitute the commencement of an Optional Interest Deferral Period with respect to the Notes unless the Company pays such interest within five Business Days after the Interest Payment Date

(without the accrual of Compound Interest during such five-Business Day period), which shall be distributed to Holders of record as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date, whether or not the Company provides a notice of deferral.

ARTICLE 5

or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or the consent by it to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case in respect of it under any such law, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver,

liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors.

Except as otherwise set forth above, an Event of Default does not include a failure to comply with covenants under the Indenture or the Notes.

16

Section 5.02 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

Any acceleration of the Notes will be subject to the subordination provisions described in Article 10 of the Indenture, as amended by Article

6 of this First Supplemental Indenture. Solely for purposes of the Notes, the first paragraph of Section 5.02 of the Base Indenture shall be deleted and replaced by the following:

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, then and in any such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less

than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes 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, together with accrued and unpaid interest, shall become immediately due and payable.

ARTICLE 6

SUBORDINATION

Section 6.01 Subordination. The subordination provisions of Article 10 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes,

except that solely for purposes of the Notes, Article 10 of the Base Indenture shall be amended as set forth in this Article 6.

Section 6.02 Senior Indebtedness. Solely with respect to the Notes, the definitions of “Senior Debt” and

“Designated Senior Debt” set forth in Section 1.01 of the Base Indenture shall not apply, and each reference in Article 10 of the Base Indenture to “Senior Debt” and “Designated Senior Debt” shall be deemed

to reference “Senior Indebtedness” as defined in Section 1.02 of this First Supplemental Indenture.

Section 6.03

Default on Senior Indebtedness. Solely with respect to the Notes, Section 10.03 of the Base Indenture shall be deleted and replaced by the following:

Section 10.03. Default on Senior Indebtedness.

(a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness by lapse of time, acceleration (unless waived, rescinded or annulled) or otherwise, or upon

any payment default (with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, in accordance with the terms of the instrument governing such Senior Indebtedness, and without any waiver or forgiveness) with respect to any Senior Indebtedness,

all amounts payable thereon shall first be paid in full on such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made, directly or indirectly by set off or otherwise, on account of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or to acquire any of the Notes or

on account of the redemption provisions of the Notes.

(b) Upon a default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness (other than under

circumstances when the terms of paragraph (a) of this Section 10.03 are applicable), as such default is defined therein or in the instrument under which it is outstanding, permitting the holders to accelerate the maturity thereof, upon

written notice thereof given to the Trustee by the Company or a Representative (“Default Notice”), then, unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or shall have ceased

to exist, no direct or indirect payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal of, or interest on, the

17

Notes or to acquire any Notes or on account of the redemption provisions of the Notes; provided, however, that this paragraph (b) shall not prevent the making of any payment

(which is not otherwise prohibited by paragraph (a)) for more than 179 days after the Default Notice shall have been given unless the Senior Indebtedness in respect of which such event of default exists has been declared due and payable in its

entirety, in which case no such payment may be made until such acceleration has been rescinded or annulled or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full.

Section 6.04 Acceleration of Notes. Solely with respect to the Notes, Section 10.04 of the Base Indenture shall be deleted in

its entirety.

Section 6.05 Relative Rights. Solely with respect to the Notes, Section 10.08 of the Base Indenture shall

be replaced with the following:

Section 10.08. Relative Rights. This Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders and

holders of Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Indenture will:

(a) affect the relative rights of Holders and creditors of the Company

other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness;

(b) prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising its

available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders; or

(c) impair, as between the Company and the Holders, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of

and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms.

If the Company fails because of this Article 10 to pay the principal of, and

premium (if any) on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable, such failure will nonetheless constitute a Default or Event of Default.

ARTICLE 7

AMENDMENTS

With respect to the Notes, the Base Indenture is hereby amended as set forth below in this Article 7; provided,

however, that each such amendment shall apply only to the Notes and not to any other series of Securities issued under the Indenture.

Section 7.01 By replacing the definition of “Representative” in Section 1.01 of the Base Indenture as follows:

“Representative” means the indenture trustee or other trustee, agent or representative for any Senior Indebtedness.

18

Section 7.02 By replacing Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture in its entirety as

follows:

Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default hereunder with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner

and to the extent provided in Section 7.03(c), notice of such Default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the

case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Note, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice

is in the interest of the Holders of Notes. For the purpose of this Section 6.02, the term “Default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

Section 7.03 By replacing the third paragraph of Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture in its entirety as follows:

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(c) or (d) occurs, the

expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law.

Section 7.04 By deleting Section 11.04 from the Base Indenture in its entirety.

Section 7.05 By deleting Section 11.05 from the Base Indenture in its entirety.

Section 7.06 By deleting Section 11.09 from the Base Indenture in its entirety.

THE

CAMPBELL’S COMPANY, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of New Jersey (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof),

for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of [•] DOLLARS (U.S. $[•]) on April 5, 2057 or any earlier date of redemption fixed in accordance with the terms of this

Security as to the principal repayable on such date. The Securities of this series shall bear interest (i) from and including October 5, 2026 (the “Original Issue Date”) to, but excluding, the First Reset Date at

a rate of 8.500% per year (the “Initial Interest Rate”) and (ii) from, and including, April 5, 2032 (the “First Reset Date”), during each Reset Period, at a rate per year

equal to the Five-Year U.S. Treasury Rate as of the Reset Interest Determination Date for such Reset Period plus a spread of 3.511% to be reset on each Reset Date; provided that the interest rate during any Reset Period will not reset below

the Initial Interest Rate. Subject to the Company’s right to defer the payment

of interest as provided in the Indenture, interest on the Securities of this series shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 5 and October 5 of each calendar year (each, an

“Interest Payment Date”), commencing on April 5, 2027, and until the outstanding principal amount of this Security is fully paid or made available for payment as set forth in the Indenture. If interest payments are

deferred or otherwise not paid pursuant to the Indenture, such amounts will accrue Compound Interest (as defined in the Indenture). Interest payable on any Interest Payment Date, the Final Maturity Date or, if applicable, any Redemption Date, as the

case may be, shall be the amount accrued from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for as set forth in the Indenture (or from and including the Original Issue

Date, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for as set forth in the Indenture with respect to the Securities of this series) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, Final Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be. Payments

of principal and interest with respect to the Securities of this series shall be made in accordance with Section 1.14 of the Indenture. The interest payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for as set forth in the Indenture, on an Interest

Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the close of business on the Business

Day before the applicable Interest Payment Date, unless such Security is registered to a Holder other than the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, in which case the Regular Record Date for each Interest Payment Date will be the close of

business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) before the applicable Interest Payment Date. Interest due on this Security at any Redemption Date (whether or not an Interest Payment Date) shall be paid to the Holder to whom

principal of such Security is payable on such Redemption Date. Interest on the Securities of this series shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve

30-day months.

Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any such interest not so punctually

paid or duly provided for as set forth in the Indenture, and that is not deferred pursuant to the Indenture, will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder of record on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name

this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of

this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon

such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Payment of principal of (and premium, if

any) and interest on this Security may be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in New York, New York.

The applicable interest rate for each Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent, as of the applicable Reset Interest

Determination Date, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

2

The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders or

beneficial owners thereof, increase the principal amount of the Securities of this series by issuing additional Securities of this series on the same terms and conditions as this Security (other than the date of issuance and the public offering

price and, under certain circumstances, the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue and the initial Interest Payment Date), and with the same CUSIP numbers as this Security; provided that if any additional Securities of this

series subsequently issued are not fungible with any Securities of this series previously issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Securities will have a separate CUSIP number. The Securities of this series and any additional

Securities issued on the same terms and conditions shall rank equally and ratably and shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse side hereof, which further provisions shall for

all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the

Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof, directly or through an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature of an authorized signatory, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Optional Redemption

The Company may

redeem the Securities at the Company’s option, in whole or in part on one or more occasions, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date

(i) on any day during the period commencing on the date that is 90 days prior to the First Reset Date and ending on and including the First Reset Date and (ii) after the First Reset Date, on any Interest Payment Date.

Right to Redeem Upon a Tax Event

The Company may, at the Company’s option, redeem the Securities, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the

principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Tax Event.

“Tax Event” means, with respect to the Securities, that the Company has received an opinion of a

nationally recognized accounting firm or counsel experienced in such tax matters to the effect that, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective change) in the laws or treaties of the

United States or any of its political subdivisions or taxing authorities, or any regulations under such laws or treaties, (b) any judicial decision or any official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, notice or

announcement (including any notice or announcement of intent to issue or adopt any administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation, or any private letter ruling, technical advice memorandum or similar pronouncement), (c) any

amendment to, clarification of, or change in the official position or the interpretation of any administrative action or judicial decision or any interpretation or pronouncement that provides for a position with respect to an administrative action

or judicial decision that differs from the theretofore generally accepted position, in each case by any legislative body, court, governmental authority or regulatory body,

3

irrespective of the time or manner in which such amendment, clarification or change is introduced or made known, or (d) any threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with a tax

audit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or a publicly-known threatened challenge asserted in writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Securities,

which amendment, clarification, or change is effective, or which administrative action is taken or which judicial decision, interpretation or pronouncement is issued or threatened challenge is asserted or becomes publicly-known, in each case after

October 1, 2026, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest payable by the Company on the Securities is not deductible, or within 90 days would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company for United States Federal income

tax purposes.

Right to Redeem Upon a Rating Agency Event

The Company may, at the Company’s option, redeem the Securities, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 102% of the principal amount

being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, by a date no later than 120 days following the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event.

“Rating Agency Event” means, as of any date, a change, clarification or amendment in the methodology in assigning equity credit to

securities such as the Securities published by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, that then publishes a rating for the Company (together with any successor

thereto, a “rating agency”), (a) as such methodology was in effect on October 1, 2026, in the case of any rating agency that published a rating for the Company as of October 1, 2026, or (b) as such methodology was in

effect on the date such rating agency first published a rating for the Company, in the case of any rating agency that first publishes a rating for the Company after October 1, 2026 (in the case of either clause (a) or (b), the

“current methodology”), that results in (i) any shortening of the length of time for which a particular level of equity credit pertaining to the Securities by such rating agency would have been in effect had the current methodology

not been changed or (ii) a lower equity credit (including up to a lesser amount) being assigned by such rating agency to the Securities as of the date of such change, clarification or amendment than the equity credit that would have been

assigned to the Securities by such rating agency had the current methodology not been changed. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of whether a Rating Agency Event has occurred.

Right to Redeem Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event

The Company may, at the Company’s option, redeem the Securities, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount

being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Change of Control Redemption Date upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event as set forth below under “Change of Control.”

Redemption Procedures

The

Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

4

Notice of any redemption shall be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise

transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of record of the Securities to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the

redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date (including a Change of Control Redemption Date), interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions of the Securities called for redemption. Any redemption or notice may, at the

Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in the

Company’s sole discretion) or the Redemption Date may not occur at all and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion).

For the avoidance of doubt, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities included in the calculation of any applicable

redemption price will include, if applicable, any deferred interest and any Compound Interest as described in the Indenture or this Security.

Installments of interest on the Securities that are due and payable on any Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will

be payable on that Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders thereof as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the terms of this Security and the Indenture, except that, if the Redemption Date for any

Securities falls on any day during an Optional Interest Deferral Period, accrued and unpaid interest (including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any Compound Interest) on the Securities to be redeemed will be paid on such Redemption Date

to the Persons entitled to receive the redemption price of the Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, the Interest Payment Date falling immediately after the last day of an Optional Interest Deferral Period will not be deemed to fall on a day

during such Optional Interest Deferral Period.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Securities for redemption will be

made by lot or by such other method as the Trustee may deem fair and appropriate (in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary). No Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Security is to be redeemed

in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Security will state the portion of the principal amount of the Security to be redeemed. A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security will be issued in

the name of the Holder of the Security upon surrender for cancellation of the original Security. For so long as the Securities are held by DTC (or another depositary), the redemption of the Securities shall be done in accordance with the policies

and procedures of the Depositary.

For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent will have any obligation to

calculate, verify or confirm the redemption price.

Change of Control

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will have the right (but not the obligation) to redeem the Securities,

in whole but not in part, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Change of Control Redemption Date.

Unless the Company has otherwise previously or concurrently given a redemption notice to

5

Holders of all Outstanding Securities pursuant to the Company’s right to redeem the Securities as described above, within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control

Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Securities, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to each

Holder of Securities, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will describe the Change of Control Triggering Event and whether the Company has elected to redeem the Securities. If the Company elects to redeem the Securities, such notice will state,

among other things, the Redemption Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”). The

notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the redemption is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Redemption Date.

If the Company does not exercise such right within 60 days after such right first arises (or if the Company exercises such right but any Securities remain

Outstanding), then the interest rate applicable to the Securities will increase by 500.0 basis points (5.0 percentage points) beginning on the first Interest Payment Date after the expiration of such 60-day

period and the Company will provide notice to the Holders (with a copy to the Paying Agent and the Trustee) of such interest rate increase. In the absence of such notice, the Paying Agent and the Trustee may conclusively and without liability assume

the interest rate has not been increased.

“Capital Stock,” as applied to the stock of any corporation, means

the capital stock of every class whether now or hereafter authorized, regardless of whether such capital stock shall be limited to a fixed sum or percentage with respect to the rights of the holders thereof to participate in dividends and in the

distribution of assets upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of such corporation.

“Change

of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of the Company’s properties and assets substantially as an entirety (other than by way of merger or consolidation) to any

“person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries; or (ii) 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” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries,

becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; provided that the consummation of any such transaction

will not be considered to be a Change of Control if (a) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (b) immediately following such transaction, (x) the direct or indirect holders of the

Voting Stock of the holding company are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to such transaction or (y) no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the

Exchange Act) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

6

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means, with respect to the

Securities, (i) the ratings on the Company’s then-existing senior unsecured notes are downgraded by each of the Ratings Agencies during the 60-day period (the “Trigger

Period”) commencing on the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a Change of Control or (b) the first public announcement of the occurrence of a Change of Control or the Company’s intention to effect a Change of Control

(which Trigger Period will be extended so long as the ratings on the then-existing senior unsecured notes are under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Ratings Agencies) and (ii) the Company’s

then-existing senior unsecured notes are rated below an Investment Grade rating by each of the Ratings Agencies on any date during the Trigger Period; provided that a Change of Control Triggering Event will not be deemed to have occurred in respect

of a particular Change of Control and the Securities if each Ratings Agency does not publicly announce or confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s 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 Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Change of Control Triggering Event). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no

Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating

category of Moody’s), a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) or an equivalent Investment Grade rating from any replacement Ratings Agency

appointed by the Company.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and its successors.

“Ratings Agency” means each of Moody’s and S&P; provided that if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases

to rate the Company’s senior unsecured notes or fails to make a rating of the Company’s senior unsecured notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, the Company may appoint a replacement for such Ratings

Agency that is a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company’s senior unsecured notes.

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings and its successors.

“Voting Stock” means Capital Stock of a corporation of the class or classes having general voting power under

ordinary circumstances to elect at least a majority of the board of directors, managers or trustees of such corporation (irrespective of whether or not at the time stock of any other class or classes shall have or might have voting power upon the

occurrence of any contingency).

This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

Dated:

U.S. BANK TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee

By:

Authorized Signatory

[REVERSE OF SECURITY]

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”),

issued and to be issued in one or more series under the Indenture, dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the

“Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, as further amended or

supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), with respect to the Securities of this series, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,

limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series

designated on the face hereof.

The Securities of this series are subject to optional redemption (as further described in the Indenture

and on the face hereof). There is no mandatory redemption applicable to the Securities of this series.

The Securities of this series are

not entitled to the benefit of, or subject to, any sinking fund.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall

occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any (including, without limitation, any deferred interest and, to the extent permitted by law, Compound Interest), on the Securities of this series may be declared due and

payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment (i) of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any (including, without limitation, any deferred interest and, to the extent permitted by law,

Compound Interest), on the Securities of this series so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any overdue principal and overdue interest (in each case to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all

of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of this series shall terminate.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations

of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee, with, except in specified cases, the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal

amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding (with

each series voting as a separate class in certain cases specified in the Indenture, or with all series voting as one class, in certain other cases specified in the Indenture), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive

compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and

upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notification of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture,

subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security by its acceptance hereof

authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in Article 10 of the Base Indenture, as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, and

appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for such purpose, including, in the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether

in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise) tending towards liquidation of the business and assets of the Company, authorizes the filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of

this Security in the form required in said proceedings.

As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of

any Security of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default

with respect to this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series shall have made written request, and offered the Trustee indemnity and/or security satisfactory to the Trustee to

institute such proceeding as Trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to

institute such proceedings within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on this Security on or

after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the

Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein

prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is

registrable in the Security Register upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security are payable, duly

endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities

of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of

$1,000 in excess of $2,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a

different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

11

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the

Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee

may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Each Holder and each beneficial owner of the Securities will, by accepting the Securities or a beneficial interest therein, be deemed to have

agreed that the Holder or beneficial owner intends that the Securities constitute indebtedness and will treat the Securities as indebtedness for United States federal, state and local tax purposes.

The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving

effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the

meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Jersey 08103

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as

counsel to The Campbell’s Company, a New Jersey corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.500% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2057 (the “Notes”), issued pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, dated October 1, 2026 (the “Agreement”), by and among the

Company and Barclays Capital Inc., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and UBS Securities LLC as representatives of the several underwriters named therein. The Notes are

being issued pursuant to that certain base indenture dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented

by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 5, 2026 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”).

In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of: (i) the Registration Statement of the

Company on Form S-3 (File No. 333-298306), including the documents incorporated by reference therein, filed by the Company on August 13, 2026 (the “Registration Statement”); (ii) the

prospectus dated as of August 13, 2026 (the “Base Prospectus”), which forms a part of the Registration Statement; (iii) the prospectus supplement, dated October 1, 2026 (together with the Base Prospectus, the

“Prospectus”); (iv) the Indenture; (v) the form of the officers’ certificate of the Company setting forth the terms of the Notes to be issued; (vi) specimens of the Notes; (vii) the Agreement; and (viii) such

corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives,

as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth.

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all

signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the

authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion that have not been independently established, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of

the Company and upon the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Agreement. We have also assumed (i) the valid existence of the Company, (ii) that the Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter

into and perform the Notes, the Indenture and the Agreement, (iii) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Notes, the Indenture and the Agreement by the Company, (iv) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the

Indenture by the Trustee, and (v) that the Notes have been duly authenticated by the Trustee.

October 5, 2026

Page 2

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that the

Notes (when delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the Agreement and authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture) will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the

Company in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to

general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

We hereby consent to the use of this letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to any and all

references to our firm in the prospectus which is a part of the Registration Statement. In giving such consent we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the
