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 applicable 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 applicable 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.
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 applicable Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on such Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from such Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following such Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding such Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on such Par Call Date for such Series of Notes 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.
Section 1.02. Conflicts with Base Indenture. In the event that any provision of this Third Supplemental Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Base Indenture, such provision of this Third Supplemental Indenture shall control.

(e) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of all or substantially all of its Property, or the making by it of a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due.
Section 5.03. Acceleration of Stated Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes, and the following shall apply in lieu thereof. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.02(d) or Section 5.02(e)) occurs and is continuing with respect to a Series of Notes, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such Series may, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), declare the principal amount of all such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration such principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest shall become immediately due and payable. However, upon an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.02(d) or Section 5.02(e), the principal amount of all outstanding Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes to the acceleration date, shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.
At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes of a Series has been made 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 outstanding Notes of such Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of Notes which have become due solely as a result of such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.
- 11 -
In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under the Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or been abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.
Section 5.04. References in Base Indenture. With respect to the Notes, references to “Section 6.01(1),” “Section 6.01(2),” “Section 6.01(3),” “Section 6.01(4),” and “Section 6.01(5)” in the Base Indenture shall be deemed to refer to Section 5.02(a), Section 5.02(b), Section 5.02(c), Section 5.02(d), and Section 5.02(e) of this Third Supplemental Indenture, respectively.
