-6-

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.

(a) A Global Note deposited with the Depositary or with the Custodian may be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.05 below and (i) the Depositary (A) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note, (B) defaults in the performance of its duties as Depositary, or (C) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as depositary, in each case, unless the Company has approved a successor Depositary within 90 days after receipt of such notice or after it has become aware of such default or cessation or (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines, subject to the procedures of the Depositary, that such Global Note will be so exchangeable or transferable.

(c) At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be appropriately reduced or increased, and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, to reflect such reduction or increase.

the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled. If the applicable Global Note is not then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company, a new applicable Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

-9-

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the Indenture and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Security Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or another Global Note, and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

(ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred.

In each case, interest payable on the Stated Maturity of the Notes or any Redemption Date of the Notes shall be payable to the Person to whom the principal of such Notes shall be payable. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall make payments of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, through the Trustee to the Depositary.

Interest payable on any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the original issue date, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for with respect to the applicable series of Notes) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, but no additional interest will accrue as a result of the delay in payment. If the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding Business Day.

(a) Prior to the Par Call Date applicable to a series of Notes, the Company may redeem the Notes of such series at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price calculated by the Company (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of

(i) (A) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus (1) 10 basis points (in the case of the 2028 Notes), (2) 10 basis points (in the case of the 2030 Notes) or (3) 15 basis points (in the case of the 2032 Notes) less (B) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

(b) On or after the Par Call Date applicable to a series of Notes, the Company may redeem the Notes of such series at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date.

(c) Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

(d) In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by lot or by such other method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate (and, for book-entry Notes subject to redemption, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures). No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note 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 Applicable Procedures.

(e) The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no duty to determine, or verify the calculation of, the Redemption Price.

Section 3.02 Change of Control Offer.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture or Section 1109 of the Base Indenture, each Holder of Notes will have

-12-

the right to require that the Company purchase all or a portion (equal to a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b) Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred or, at the Company’s option, prior to and conditioned on the occurrence of, any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company must deliver a notice to each Holder of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor (except to the extent such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event) later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent and, if the notice is sent prior to the Change of Control, no earlier than the date of the occurrence of the Change of Control, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The Change of Control Payment Date may be designated by reference to the date that the Change of Control Triggering Event is satisfied, rather than a specific date. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders of Definitive Notes electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice. Holders of Global Notes must transfer their Notes to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Paying Agent and the Depositary (in the case of Global Notes), in each case prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(c) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner and at the times required and otherwise in compliance with the requirements applicable to such an offer had it been made by the Company, and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company may not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(d) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the applicable series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event and the Company, or any third party making an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, as described in the immediately preceding clause (c), purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a Redemption Price in cash equal to 101% of the

-13-

principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

(e) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Indenture and the Notes, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Indenture and the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

Section 3.03 Additional Redemption Provisions

(a) Subject to Section 6.03 of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of Article Eleven of the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture, shall apply to the Notes.

Article Four

Additional Covenants

Section 4.01 Limitation on Secured Debt.

(a) The Company shall not (nor shall the Company permit any of its Domestic Subsidiaries to) create, assume, or guarantee any Secured Debt without making effective provision for securing the Notes equally and ratably with such Secured Debt. This covenant shall not apply to indebtedness for borrowed money secured by:

(1) Security Interests created to secure payment for the acquisition, construction, repair or improvement of any property including, but not limited to, any indebtedness incurred by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company prior to, at the time of, or within 24 months after the later of the acquisition, the completion of construction (including any repairs or improvements on an existing property) or the commencement of commercial operations of such property, which indebtedness is incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of such property or construction, repair or improvements on such property;

(2) Security Interests on property, or any conditional sales agreement or any title retention with respect to property, existing at the time of acquisition thereof (whether or not assumed by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company) or at the time it becomes a Principal Property, provided such Security Interests are not created in anticipation or in furtherance of such acquisition;

-14-

(3) Security Interests on property of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary or Domestic Subsidiary;

(4) Security Interests on property of a Person existing at the time such Person is merged or amalgamated into or otherwise consolidated with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company or at the time of a sale, lease, or other disposition of the properties of a Person as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company; provided that no such Security Interests shall extend to any other property that is a Principal Property of the Company or such Subsidiary prior to such acquisition or to other property that is a Principal Property thereafter acquired other than additions or improvements to the acquired property;

(5) Security Interests on the Company’s property or property of a Subsidiary of the Company in favor of the United States of America or any state, territory or possession thereof (or the District of Columbia), or in favor of any other country, or any department, agency, instrumentality or political subdivision thereof (including, without limitation, Security Interests to secure indebtedness for borrowed money of the pollution control or industrial revenue type), in order to permit the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to perform a contract or to secure any indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of constructing or improving the property subject to such Security Interests which are required by law or regulation as a condition to the transaction of any business or the exercise of any privilege, franchise or license;

(6) Security Interests on any of the Company’s property or assets or any Subsidiary of the Company to secure indebtedness for borrowed money owing to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company;

(7) Security Interests securing reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit related to trade payables and issued in the ordinary course of business, which liens encumber documents and other property relating to such letters of credit and the products and proceeds thereof;

(8) Security Interests existing on the issue date of the Notes; or

(9) any extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement, or successive extensions, renewals, refinancings or replacements, in whole or in part, of any Security Interest referred to in the foregoing clauses (1)-(8); to the extent that the principal amount of the indebtedness for borrowed money secured thereby is not increased other than by transaction costs and premiums, if any, and no additional Principal Property other than Principal Property permitted to be so secured under the foregoing clauses (1)-(8) is subject thereto.

-15-

For the purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Secured Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Secured Debt described above, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall classify such Secured Debt and only be required to include the amount and type of such Secured Debt in one of clauses (1) through (9) above or pursuant to clause (b) below, and Secured Debt may be divided and classified at the time of incurrence into more than one of the types of Secured Debt described above or pursuant to clause (b) below.

(b) Notwithstanding the limitations on Secured Debt described in clause (a) above, the Company and any one or more of its Domestic Subsidiaries may, without securing the Notes, issue, assume, or guarantee Secured Debt that would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions, provided that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of such Secured Debt then outstanding (other than Secured Debt permitted under the foregoing exceptions), at such time does not exceed the greater of (i) 15% of the Company’s Consolidated Total Assets calculated as of the date of the creation, assumption or guarantee of such Secured Debt, after giving effect to such incurrence and the application of the proceeds therefrom and (ii) $26,300 million.
