instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the special record date or other specified date determined in accordance with the Indenture.

If any Interest Payment Date or Stated Maturity falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.4. Optional Redemption.

At any time prior to November 1, 2049, the Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or in part from time to time, at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and

(b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (excluding interest accrued to the redemption date) on the Notes (assuming for this purpose, that the Notes mature on November 1, 2049) discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 40 basis points;

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date.

On or after November 1, 2049, the Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or in part from time to time, at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The provisions of Sections 5.2, 5.3 and 5.6 of the Initial Indenture shall be applicable to any optional redemption of the Notes, except that the reference to “30 days” in the first sentence of Section 5.2 shall be deemed to have been replaced with “10 days” for purposes of the Notes.

SECTION 2.5. No Sinking Fund.

The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

SECTION 2.6. Method of Payment.

Settlement for the Notes will be made in same day funds. All payments of principal and interest will be made by the Company in same day funds. The Notes will trade in the Same-Day Funds Settlement System of The Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary” or “DTC”) until Maturity, and secondary market trading activity for the Notes will therefore settle in same day funds.

Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable, and the Notes will be exchangeable and transferable, at the office or agency of the Company in the City of New York maintained for such purposes (which initially will be the Trustee); provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto as shown on the security register.

SECTION 2.7. Currency.

Principal and interest on the Notes shall be payable in United States Dollars or in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

SECTION 2.8. Registered Securities; Global Form.

The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of Notes, except in certain circumstances for any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. The depository for the Notes shall be DTC. The Notes shall not be issuable in definitive form.

SECTION 2.9. Form of Notes.

The Notes shall be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto.

SECTION 3.2. Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event shall occur at any time, then each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require that the Company purchase such Holder’s Notes in whole or in part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof), at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), pursuant to the offer described in subsection (b) of this Section (the “Change of Control Offer”) and in accordance with the procedures set forth in subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 3.2.

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company shall (i) cause a notice of the Change of Control Offer to be sent at least once to the Dow Jones News Service or similar business news service in the United States of America; and (ii) notify the Trustee thereof and give written notice (a “Change of Control Purchase Notice”) of such Change of Control to each Holder by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at its address appearing in the Security Register stating or including:

(2) that a Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred, the date of such event, and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to repurchase such Holder’s Notes at the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(3) the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change of Control Triggering Event (including information with respect to the Company’s pro forma consolidated historical income, cash flow and capitalization after giving effect to such Change of Control Triggering Event);

(4) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.2 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment at the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(5) the Change of Control Purchase Date, which shall be a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act;

(6) the Change of Control Purchase Price;

(7) the names and addresses of the Paying Agent and the offices or agencies referred to in Section 4.2 of the Initial Indenture;

(8) that Notes must be surrendered on or prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date to the Paying Agent at the office of the Paying Agent or to an office or agency referred to in Section 4.2 of the Initial Indenture to collect payment;

(9) that the Change of Control Purchase Price for any Note which has been properly tendered and not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the Change of Control Offer Purchase Date;

(10) the procedures for withdrawing a tender of Notes;

(c) Upon receipt by the Company of the proper tender of Notes, the Holder of the Note in respect of which such proper tender was made shall (unless the tender of such Note is properly withdrawn) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Change of Control Purchase Price with respect to such Note. Upon surrender of any such Note for purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the Change of Control Purchase Price; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such on the relevant record dates according to the terms and the provisions of Section 2.3. If any Note tendered for purchase shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof, the principal thereof (and premium, if any, thereon) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Change of Control Purchase Date at the rate borne by such Note. Holders electing to have Notes purchased will be required to surrender such Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the Change of Control Purchase Notice at least two Business Days prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date. Any Note that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered to a Paying Agent at the office of such Paying Agent (with, if the note registrar designated pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Initial Indenture or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the note registrar or the Trustee, as the case may be, duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note, without service charge, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination as requested by

such Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered that is not purchased.

(d) The Company shall (i) not later than the Change of Control Purchase Date, accept for payment Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Change of Control Purchase Date, deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price of all the Notes or portions thereof which are to be purchased as of the Change of Control Purchase Date and (iii) not later than the Change of Control Purchase Date, deliver to the Paying Agent an Officers’ Certificate stating the Notes or portions thereof accepted for payment by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail or deliver to Holders of Notes so accepted payment in an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price of the Notes purchased from each such Holder, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail or deliver to such Holders a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Notes not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Paying Agent at the Company’s expense to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on the Change of Control Purchase Date. For purposes of this Section 3.2, the Company shall choose a Paying Agent which shall not be the Company.

(e) Tendered Notes may be withdrawn before or after delivery by the Holder to the Paying Agent at the office of the Paying Agent of the Note to which such Change of Control Purchase Notice relates, by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to the Paying Agent at the office of the Paying Agent or to the office or agency referred to in Section 4.2 of the Initial Indenture to which the related Change of Control Purchase Notice was delivered not later than three Business Days prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date specifying, as applicable:

(1) the name of the Holder;

(2) the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;

(3) the principal amount of the Note (which shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) delivered for purchase by the Holder as to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted; and

(4) the principal amount, if any, of such Note (which shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) that remains subject to the original Change of Control Purchase Notice and that has been or will be delivered for purchase by the Company.

(f) Subject to applicable escheat laws, as provided in the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company any cash that remains unclaimed, together with interest or dividends, if any, thereon, held by them for the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price; provided, however, that, (x) to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph (d) above exceeds the

aggregate Change of Control Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof to be purchased, then the Trustee shall hold such excess for the Company and (y) unless otherwise directed by the Company in writing, promptly after the Business Day following the Change of Control Purchase Date the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company together with interest, if any, thereon.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 3.2 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(h) The Company shall comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of the Indenture or the Notes, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Indenture or the Notes as a result thereof.

SECTION 3.3. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

So long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall enter into any arrangement with any Person (other than the Company or any Subsidiary) whereby the Company or a Subsidiary agrees to lease any Principal Property (except for leases for a term of not more than three years) which has been or is to be sold or transferred more than 120 days after the later of (i) such Principal Property having been acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary and (ii) completion of construction and commencement of full operation thereof, by the Company or a Subsidiary to that Person unless (a) the net proceeds to the Company or a Subsidiary from the sale or transfer equal or exceed the fair value, as determined by the Board of Directors, of the Principal Property so leased, (b) immediately after giving effect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, the Company’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would be greater than 2.0 to 1.0, or (c) the Company, within 120 days after the effective date of the Sale and Leaseback Transaction, applies an amount equal to the fair value as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors of the Principal Property so leased to (x) the pre-payment or retirement of the Company’s Funded Debt, which may include the Notes or (y) the acquisition of additional real property for the Company or any Subsidiary. A Sale and Leaseback Transaction shall not include any such arrangement for financing air, water or noise pollution control facilities or sewage or solid waste disposal facilities or involving industrial development bonds which are tax-exempt pursuant to Section 103 of the Code (or which receive similar tax treatment under any subsequent amendments thereto or successor laws thereof).

SECTION 3.4. [Reserved].

SECTION 3.5. Waiver of Certain Covenants.

The Company may omit in a particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.4, if, before or after the time for such compliance, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall, by act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such covenant or condition, except as provided in Section 8.2, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such 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 in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE FOUR

DEFEASANCE

The following provisions of this Article Four shall apply to the Notes (but not with respect to any other series of Debt Securities).

SECTION 4.1. Legal Defeasance.

The Company will be deemed to have paid and the Company will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the Notes on the 91st day after the date of the deposit referred to in clause (a) of this Section 4.1, and the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture will no longer be in effect with respect to the Notes, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same if:

(a) the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee and conveyed all right, title and interest to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Notes, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee as trust funds in trust, specifically pledged to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders as security for payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of such Holders, in and to (1) money in an amount, (2) United States Government Obligations that, through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment referred to in this clause (a), money in an amount or (3) a combination thereof in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, without consideration of the reinvestment of such interest and after payment of all federal, state and local taxes or other charges and assessments in respect thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and interest on the Outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity of such principal or interest; provided, that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such United States Government Obligations to the payment of such principal and interest with respect to the Notes;

(b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee either (x) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that Holders of Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s exercise of its option under this Section 4.1 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 option had not been exercised, which Opinion of Counsel shall be based upon (and accompanied by a copy of) a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service to the same effect unless there has been a change in applicable federal income tax law after the Issue Date such that a ruling is no longer required or (y) a ruling directed to the Trustee received from the Internal Revenue Service to the same effect as the aforementioned Opinion of Counsel;

(c) immediately after giving effect to such deposit, on a pro forma basis, no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.1(f) and 5.1(g) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after such date of such deposit; and

Thereafter, the Company’s obligations in Sections 4.4 and 4.5 hereof shall survive and Section 11.2 of the Initial Indenture shall survive.

After any such irrevocable deposit, the Trustee upon request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture with respect to the Notes except for those surviving obligations in the immediately preceding paragraph.

SECTION 4.2. Defeasance of Certain Obligations.

The Company may omit to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 hereof and a breach with respect to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 shall be deemed not to be an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Outstanding Notes if:

(a) with reference to this Section 4.2,, the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of the Initial Indenture) and conveyed all right, title and interest to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Notes, under the terms of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee as trust funds in trust, specifically pledged to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders as security for payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of such Holders, in and to (A) money in an amount, (B) United States Government Obligations that, through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms, will provide, not later than one day before

the due date of any payment referred to in this clause (a), money in an amount or (C) a combination thereof in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, without consideration of the reinvestment of such interest and after payment of all federal, state and local taxes or other charges and assessments in respect thereof payable by the Trustee, the principal of and interest on the Outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity of such principal or interest; provided, that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such United States Government Obligations to the payment of such principal and interest with respect to the Notes;

(b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance of such covenants and Events of Default 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 and defeasance had not occurred;

(c) immediately after giving effect to such deposit on a pro forma basis, no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as Sections 5.1(f) and 5.1(g) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after such date of such deposit;

(d) if the Notes are then listed on a national securities exchange, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Notes will not be delisted as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge; and

(e) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the defeasance contemplated by this Section 4.2, have been complied with.

SECTION 4.3. Application of Trust Money.

Subject to Section 4.5, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall hold in trust money or United States Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2,, as the case may be, and shall apply the deposited money and the proceeds from United States Government Obligations in accordance with the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture to the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

SECTION 4.4. Repayment to Company.

Subject to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon request set forth in an Officers’ Certificate any excess money held by

them at any time and thereupon shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them with respect to the Notes for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years; provided, that the Trustee or Paying Agent before being required to make any payment may cause to be published at the expense of the Company once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York or mail to each Holder of Notes entitled to such money at such Holder’s address notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified therein (which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing) any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, Holders of Notes entitled to such money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

SECTION 4.5. Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or United States Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1 or 4.2, as the case may be, by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or United States Government Obligations in accordance with Section 4.1 or 4.2, as the case may be; provided, that, if the Company has made any payment of principal of or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of Notes to receive such payment from the money or United States Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

SECTION 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.1(f) or (g) with respect to the Company), the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding may, and the Trustee at the request of the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding shall, declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued 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 the Holders of the Notes). If an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.1(f) or (g) shall occur and be continuing, all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all the Notes shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Thereupon such principal shall become immediately due and payable, and the Trustee may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Holders of Notes by appropriate judicial proceeding.

At any time after such acceleration has occurred but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding, 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

(i) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under Section 11.2 of the Initial Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel,

(ii) to the extent payment of such interest is lawful, if interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid, and

(iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the Notes;

(b) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of the Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 7.5 of the Initial Indenture; and

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