PBGC Indenture

SECTION 2.03. Execution and Authentication. One or more Officers of the Issuer shall sign the Securities of each Series on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Security is authenticated, the Security shall nevertheless be valid.

A Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. A Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

The Trustee shall, at any time, and from time to time, authenticate Securities of a Series for original issue up to the principal amount specified for such Series in the Annex to this Indenture applicable to such Series, upon receipt by the Trustee of an Issuer Order and an Opinion of Counsel. The aggregate principal amount of Securities of any Series outstanding at any time may not exceed any limit upon the maximum principal amount for such Series referred to in Section 2.02, except as provided in Section 2.08.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Securities. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Issuer shall maintain, with respect to each Series of Securities, at the place or places specified with respect to such Series pursuant to this Section, an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities of such Series may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register with respect to each Series of Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer may have one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as Registrar and Paying Agent for each Series of Securities unless another Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, is appointed prior to the time Securities of that Series are first issued.

The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the Trust Indenture Act. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Issuer or any of its domestically organized Significant Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

The Issuer may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (1) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as evidenced by an

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (2) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (1) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Registrar or Paying Agent only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.

SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Issuer shall require each Paying Agent with respect to a Series of Securities other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust, for the benefit of Holders of such Series of Securities, or the Trustee, all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or premium or interest on such Series of Securities, that the Paying Agent will notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment and that while any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer, at any time, may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or any of its domestically organized Significant Subsidiaries) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or any of its domestically organized Significant Subsidiaries acts as Paying Agent for a Series of Securities, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of Holders of such Series of Securities all money held by it as Paying Agent for such Series of Securities.

SECTION 2.06. Holder Lists. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of each Series of Securities and shall otherwise comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least ten days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may reasonably request in writing a list, in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of Holders of each Series of Securities.

SECTION 2.07. Transfer and Exchange. Where Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.11, 3.06, 4.05 or 9.05).

Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange Securities of any Series for the period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of that Series selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange Securities of any Series selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Securities selected, called or being called for redemption in part.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or upon any exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

SECTION 2.08. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute, and 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.

If there shall be delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security 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 Issuer or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute, and upon the Issuer’s request the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same Series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer, in its discretion, may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Issuer 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 issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that Series 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.

SECTION 2.09. Outstanding Securities. The Securities outstanding at any time are all the Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest on a Global Security effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof and those described in this Section as not outstanding.

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it ceases to be outstanding until the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

If, at the Maturity of Securities of a Series, the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to pay such Securities payable on that date, then, on and after that date, such Securities of the Series shall cease to be outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue.

A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Security.

SECTION 2.10. Treasury Securities. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities of a Series have concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, Securities of a Series owned by the Issuer and its Affiliates shall be disregarded, except that, for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Securities of a Series that the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded.

SECTION 2.11. Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare, and the Trustee shall authenticate, temporary Securities upon an Issuer Order. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare, and the Trustee upon request shall authenticate, definitive Securities of the same Series and date of maturity in exchange for temporary Securities. After preparation of such definitive Securities of such Series, the temporary Securities of such Series shall be exchangeable for such definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such Series at the office or agency of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.04, without charge to the Holder. Until so exchanged, temporary Securities shall have the same rights under this Indenture as the definitive Securities.

SECTION 2.12. Cancellation. The Issuer at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy such canceled Securities (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Issuer upon the Issuer’s request, unless the Issuer otherwise directs. The Issuer may not issue new Securities to replace Securities that it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.

SECTION 2.13. Defaulted Interest. If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on a Series of Securities on the applicable Interest Payment Date, such interest shall cease to be payable to the applicable Holders on the relevant Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. In such case, the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest, plus, to the extent permitted by law, any interest payable on the defaulted interest to but excluding the date scheduled for payment of such defaulted interest to Holders, pursuant to clause (1) or (2) below, as the Issuer shall elect:

(1) The Issuer may elect to make such payment to the Persons who are Holders of the Series on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix the payment date for such defaulted interest and the special record date therefor, which shall not be more than

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

15 days nor less than 10 days prior to such payment date. At least 10 days before the special record date, the Issuer shall mail to the Trustee and to each Holder of the Series a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid.

(2) The Issuer may elect to make such payment in any other lawful manner.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 2.07, each Security authenticated 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 (in the case of any transfer or exchange in part, to the extent allocable to such part).

Payment of defaulted interest and any interest thereon to the Trustee shall be deemed to satisfy the Issuer’s obligation to pay such defaulted interest and any interest thereon for all purposes of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.14. Global Securities.

(a) Terms of Securities. The Securities of each Series shall be issued in whole in the form of one or more Global Securities, subject to Section 2.14(b). The initial Depositary for such Global Securities shall be The Depository Trust Company.

(b) Transfer and Exchange. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in Section 2.07 of this Indenture and in addition thereto, any Global Security shall be exchangeable pursuant to Section 2.07 of this Indenture for Securities registered in the names of Holders other than the Depositary for such Security or its nominee only if (i) such Depositary notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or, if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, the Issuer fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days following such event (it being agreed that the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to appoint a successor Depositary during such 90 days), (ii) the Issuer executes and delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Securities represented by such Global Security shall have occurred and be continuing and owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security in an amount not less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Global Security have delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee a request for certificated Securities. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Securities registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security with like tenor and terms.

Except as provided in this Section 2.14(b), a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary with respect to such Global Security to a nominee of such Depositary, by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such a successor Depositary.

In addition, any Global Security issued hereunder shall bear such legends as shall be required by the applicable Depositary.

(d) Acts of Holders. The Depositary, as a Holder, may appoint agents and otherwise authorize participants to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a Holder is entitled to give or take under this Indenture.

(e) Payments. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Indenture, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Global Security shall be made to the Holder thereof.

SECTION 2.15. Terms of Payment. The Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities on each Interest Payment Date to each Person in whose name Securities were registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.04; provided, however, that each installment of interest on any Security may at the Issuer’s option be paid by mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto, to the address of such Person as it appears on the register for such Series of Securities or by wire transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar for such Series of Securities and shall appear on the applicable register. Payments of principal of a Security shall be made against surrender of such Security at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.04 at the Issuer’s option by check payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto or by wire transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar for such Series of Securities.

SECTION 2.16. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor, or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor, or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

None of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. The Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Registrar shall be entitled to deal with any Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the Holder of any such Global Security for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Security (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Security) as the sole Holder of such Global Security and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of any such Depositary (or its nominee) with respect to such Global Security, for the records of any such Depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Security, for any transactions between such Depositary and any participant in such Depositary or between or among any such Depositary, any such participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Security or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Security.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Security, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee, or any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor, or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any Depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Global Security or impair, as between such Depositary (or its nominee) and owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Security.

SECTION 2.17. CUSIP Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices 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 and that reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Securities, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

PBGC Indenture

SECTION 3.02. Selection of Securities To Be Redeemed. If fewer than all the Securities of a particular Series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed, subject to the Depositary requirements, pro rata or by lot or by a method that complies with applicable legal and securities exchange requirements, if any, and that the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate and in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar circumstances. The Trustee shall make the selection at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date from outstanding Securities of a Series not previously called for redemption. Securities and portions thereof that the Trustee selects shall be in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed.

SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of Securities, the Issuer shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address.

The notice shall identify the Securities to be redeemed (including, if fewer than all Securities of a Series are being redeemed, the particular Securities of such Series to be redeemed) and shall state:

(1) the redemption date;

(2) the redemption price;

(3) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Security, the Issuer shall issue to each applicable Holder, without charge, a new Security or Securities in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion upon cancellation of the original Security;

(5) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(6) that, on the redemption date, the redemption price and accrued interest to, but excluding, the redemption date will become due and payable upon each such Security, or portion thereof, to be redeemed and unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Securities (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; provided that installments of interest whose maturity is on or prior to the redemption date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such at the close of business on the relevant regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of this Indenture;

SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the redemption date at the rate prescribed therefor in such Security.

Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer or any domestically organized Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) an amount in immediately available funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest to but not including the redemption date on, all Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for cancellation. The Paying Agent (if the Issuer or any domestically organized Significant Subsidiary is not the Paying Agent) shall as promptly as practicable return to the Issuer any money deposited with it by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Securities to be redeemed. If such money is then held by the Issuer in trust and is not required for such purpose it shall be discharged from such trust. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee.

SECTION 3.06. Securities Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Issuer’s expense), a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered.

SECTION 3.07. No Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other scheduled payments of principal with respect to the Securities. However, the Issuer may be required to offer to purchase the Securities as described

Such payments shall be considered made on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds (and, in the case of the Issuer or any of its domestically organized Significant Subsidiaries acting as Paying Agent, such Paying Agent shall have segregated and held in a separate trust fund in accordance with Section 2.05) prior to 12:00 noon (New York City time), money deposited by or on behalf of the Issuer in immediately available funds sufficient to pay all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities then due. If the Issuer makes any such payment through a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, it shall give prompt notice to the Trustee thereof.

SECTION 4.02. SEC Reports; Provision of Financial Statements. (a) To the extent required by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended from time to time (including after the Closing Date), the Issuer shall file with the Trustee within 30 days after it files them with the SEC, copies of its annual report and the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) that such Issuer is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Issuer also shall comply with the other provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a).

(b) If the Issuer is not required to file periodic reports and other information pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act with the SEC with respect to (x) a fiscal year or (y) any of the first three fiscal quarters of a fiscal year, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee (i) in the case of the preceding clause (x), within 135 days after the end of such fiscal year, an annual report containing the information required by Items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of Form 10-K promulgated under the Exchange Act or substantially the same information required to be contained in comparable items of any successor form and (ii) in the case of the preceding clause (y), within 60 days after the end of such fiscal quarter, a quarterly report containing the information required to be contained in Form 10-Q promulgated under the Exchange Act or substantially the same information required to be contained in any successor form.

SECTION 4.03. Compliance Certificate. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of such Issuer an Officers’ Certificate (signed by any

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

one of the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer or the principal accounting officer and another Officer) stating whether or not the signers know of any Default with respect to a Series of Securities that occurred during such period. If the signers know of any Default, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action such Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Issuer also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a) (4).

SECTION 4.04. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article V and Section 10.04, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor will at all times do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.

SECTION 4.05. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Securities will have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Securities pursuant to an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of Holders of Securities on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating:

(1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.05 and that all Securities tendered will be accepted for payment;

(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(3) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

(4) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Securities accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

(5) that Holders of Securities electing to have any Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Securities, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Securities completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

(6) that Holders of Securities will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Securities delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have the Securities purchased; and

(7) that Holders of Securities whose Securities are being purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.05, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.05 by virtue of such compliance.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being purchased by the Issuer.

The Paying Agent will promptly mail (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of Securities properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(i) the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) 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 4.05 hereof and purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (2) notice of redemption with respect to all Securities has been given pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price; and

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(ii) a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer’s failure to make a Change of Control Offer would constitute a Default under clause (3) of Section 6.01 hereof and not clause (1) or (2), but the failure of the Issuer to pay the Change of Control Payment when due shall constitute a Default under clause (1) of Section 6.01.

SECTION 4.06. Waiver of Ranking Provision. The Trustee, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the registered holder of all Existing Notes immediately prior to the amendment and restatement of the Original Indenture and the Holder of all Securities upon effectiveness of the amendment and restatement of the Original Indenture (by providing its consent to such amendment and restatement), each hereby irrevocably waives all of its rights and benefits under the first sentence of Section 1.14 (entitled “Rights Relative to Other Notes”) of the Indenture, dated as of July 25, 2006, among the Issuer (formerly known as UAL Corporation), the Guarantor and the Trustee (formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.) relating to the 4.50% Senior Limited-Subordination Convertible Notes due 2021 (the “4.50% Notes”) and agrees that the holders of the 4.50% Notes are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 4.06. The foregoing irrevocable waiver shall be binding on every future Holder of Securities.

SECTION 4.07. Notice of Default. So long as the Securities of a Series are outstanding, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within five Business Days after the Issuer’s chief financial officer or treasurer becoming aware of any Event of Default with respect to such Series, written notice specifying such Event of Default.

SECTION 4.08. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon the request of the Trustee, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the purposes of this Indenture.

SECTION 4.09. Payments for Consents. The Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of any Securities of a Series for or as inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities of such Series unless such consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders of the Securities of such Series that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

SECTION 4.10. Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $50.0 million, unless:

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary (taking into account all effects the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary expects to result from such transaction whether tangible or intangible) than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee:

(i) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $100.0 million, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) of this Section 4.10(a); and

(b) The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.10(a) hereof:

(1) any employment agreement, confidentiality agreement, non-competition agreement, incentive plan, employee stock option agreement, long-term incentive plan, profit sharing plan, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

(8) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $20.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(9) transactions pursuant to agreements or arrangements in effect on the Closing Date or any amendment, modification or supplement thereto or replacement thereof and any payments made or performance under any agreement as in effect on the Closing Date or any amendment, replacement, extension or renewal thereof (so long as such agreement as so amended, replaced, extended or renewed is not materially less advantageous, taken as a whole, to the Holders than the original agreement as in effect on the Closing Date);

(10) transactions between or among the Issuer and/or its Subsidiaries or transactions between a Receivables Subsidiary and any Person in which the Receivables Subsidiary has an Investment;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(or a third party to the extent permitted by this Indenture) have made a Change of Control Offer as a result of such change of control and has repurchased all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn in connection with such Change of Control Offer (it being agreed that the Issuer or the Guarantor may pay, purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire such subordinated Indebtedness even if the purchase price exceeds 101% of the principal amount of such subordinated Indebtedness; provided that the amount paid in excess of 101% of such principal amount is otherwise permitted under the Restricted Payments covenant);

(11) Restricted Payments made with Excluded Contributions;

(12) the distribution, as a dividend or otherwise, of shares of Capital Stock of, or Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries by, any Unrestricted Subsidiary;

(13) the distribution or dividend of assets or Capital Stock of any Person in connection with any full or partial “spin-off” of a Subsidiary or similar transactions; provided that the Issuer would, on the date of such distribution after giving pro forma effect thereto as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4A.03(a) hereof;

(16) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries can make any Restricted Investment; and

(17) the payment of any amounts in respect of any restricted stock units or other instruments or rights whose value is based in whole or in part on the value of any Equity Interests issued to any directors, officers or employees of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer.

In the case of any Restricted Payment that is not cash, the amount of such non-cash Restricted Payment will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 4A.01 will be determined by an Officer of the Issuer and, if greater than $10.0 million, set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4A.01, if a proposed Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

Payments described in clauses (1) through (17) of subparagraph (b) of this Section 4A.01, or is entitled to be made pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Section 4A.01, the Issuer will be entitled to classify on the date of its payment or later reclassify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4A.01.

For the avoidance of doubt, the following shall not constitute Restricted Payments and therefore will not be subject to any of the restrictions described in this Section 4A.01:

(a) the payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is not contractually subordinated to the Securities or the Guarantee;

(b) the payment of regularly scheduled amounts in respect of, and the issuance of common stock of the Issuer upon conversion of, the 6% Convertible Preferred Securities, Term Income Deferred Equity Securities (TIDES)SM issued by Continental Airlines Finance Trust II or the underlying 6% Convertible Junior Subordinated Debentures due 2030 issued by Continental; and

Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, if a Restricted Payment is made at a time when a Default has occurred and is continuing and such Default is subsequently cured, the Default or Event of Default arising from the making of such Restricted Payment during the existence of such Default shall simultaneously be deemed cured.

SECTION 4A.02. Restrictions on Ability of Restricted Subsidiaries to Pay Dividends and Make Certain Other Payments.

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any such Restricted Subsidiary to:

(2) pay any indebtedness owed to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) this Indenture;

(3) agreements governing other Indebtedness or shares of preferred stock permitted to be incurred or issued under the provisions of Section 4A.03 hereof; provided, that if such Restricted Subsidiary incurring or issuing such Indebtedness or shares of preferred stock is not the Guarantor, the restrictions therein are either (in each case, as determined in good faith by a senior financial officer of the Issuer) (A) not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture or (B) (i) customary for instruments of such type and (ii) will not materially adversely impact the ability of the Issuer to make required principal and interest payments on the Securities;

(4) applicable law, rule, regulation or order;

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including by way of merger, consolidation or amalgamation of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

(6) customary provisions in contracts, licenses, leases and asset sale agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(7) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property (or proceeds thereof) purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (4) of Section 4A.02(a) hereof;

(9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, extension, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing is, in the good faith judgment of a senior financial officer of the Issuer, taken together as a whole, not materially more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in (A) the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, extension, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing or (B) this Indenture;

(15) any encumbrance or restriction existing under or by reason of Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of a Receivables Subsidiary or any Standard Securitization Undertaking, in each case, in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction; provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary.

(a) the Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Issuer will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue preferred stock, if the Issuer’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 1.1 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4A.03, if an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (25) of Section 4A.03(b) hereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4A.03(a) hereof, the Issuer will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4A.03; provided that the term “Existing Indebtedness” will not include any Indebtedness that is permitted to be incurred under clauses (1) or (3) of this Section 4A.03(b).

None of the following will constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4A.03:

(1) the accrual of interest or preferred stock dividends;

(2) the accretion or amortization of original issue discount;

(3) the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms;

(4) the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles; and

(5) the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4A.03, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4A.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness as of such date, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness as of such date, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

(A) the Fair Market Value of such assets as of such date; and

(B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person as of such date.

SECTION 4A.04 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Board of Directors of the Issuer may designate any Restricted Subsidiary of it (other than the Guarantor) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation. That designation will be permitted only if the Investment would be permitted at that time under Section 4A.01 and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary.”

(b) Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions. The Board of Directors of the Issuer may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will be permitted only if (i) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4A.03 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period and (ii) no Default would be in existence following such designation.

SECTION 4A.05 Termination of Supplemental Covenants. The covenants set forth in this Article IVA shall cease to be in effect and shall be terminated with respect to a Series of Securities upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the Indenture, dated as of August 18, 2010 (the “Continental Indenture”), among Continental, each of the guarantors party thereto, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, and Wilmington Trust FSB, as Collateral Agent is discharged or (ii) Continental effects “Legal Defeasance” or “Covenant Defeasance” as defined in the Continental Indenture; provided that any such termination under this clause (ii) shall be solely with respect to the covenants in Article IVA that correspond to the covenants in the Continental Indenture that cease to be in effect as of a result of such “Legal Defeasance” or “Covenant Defeasance” If any covenants are terminated pursuant to this Section 4A.05, the Issuer shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee within ten Business Days after such termination.

SECTION 5.01. Merger and Consolidation. The Issuer shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its properties and assets to, any Person, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, unless:

(i) the Issuer is the surviving Person in such merger or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) shall be a corporation

organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and this Indenture;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default specified in Sections 6.01(1) or (2) or Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) the Successor Company or the Issuer, as applicable, shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture.

In the event of the assumption by the Successor Company of the obligations of the Issuer as provided above as a result of a merger or consolidation, such Successor Company shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer hereunder and under the Securities and all such obligations of the Issuer shall terminate; provided, however, that no sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition shall have the effect of releasing the Person named as the “Issuer” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor Person which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article from its liability as obligor and maker on any of the Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, a transaction subject to this Section 5.01 may also be subject to Section 4.05 hereof.

ARTICLE VI

Defaults And Remedies

SECTION 6.01. Events of Default. In the case of any Series of Securities, each of the following constitutes an “Event of Default” with respect to such Series of Securities:

(1) default in any payment of the principal amount of, or premium, if any, on any Security of that Series when such amount becomes due and payable at Stated Maturity, upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise;

(2) failure to pay interest on any Security of that Series when such interest becomes due and payable, and such failure continues for a period of 30 days;

(3) failure to comply with any of the covenants or agreements applicable to Securities of that Series (other than those referred to in (1) or (2) above or (4) below) and such failure continues for 60 days after the notice specified below;

(4) failure by the Issuer (i) to mail notice of a Change of Control to each Holder within the time period provided in Section 4.05(a), or (ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 5.01;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(5) the Issuer or the Guarantor pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(A) commences a voluntary case or proceeding;

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding or to the commencement of any case against it;

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency;

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law, which remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days, that:

(A) is for relief against the Issuer or the Guarantor in an involuntary case or proceeding or adjudicates the Issuer or the Guarantor as insolvent or bankrupt;

(B) appoints a Custodian of the Issuer or the Guarantor or all or substantially all of its property; or

(C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer or the Guarantor or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws; and

(7) the Guarantee with respect to such Series ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void or the Guarantor denies that it has any further liability under such Guarantee (other than in any such case by reason of the termination, discharge, defeasance or release of such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture), and such condition shall have continued for a period of 30 days after written notice of such condition requiring the Guarantor or the Issuer to remedy the same shall have been given to the Issuer by the Trustee or to the Issuer and the Trustee by the Holders of 25% in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Securities of such Series. For purposes of clarification, this 30-day grace period is in place of and not in addition to the 60-day grace period in clause (3) above.

The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is 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.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

A Default under clause (3) above is not an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities until the Trustee notifies the Issuer or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series notify the Issuer and the Trustee of the Default (such

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

notice being a “Notice of Default”) and the Issuer does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (3) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”

SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities at the time outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series by notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if such notice is given by the Holders), may declare the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of that Series to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such amounts (including premium, if any, then due and unpaid) shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) occurs, the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Securities of such Series shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration of that Series of Securities and its consequences if (i) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, (ii) all existing Events of Default with respect to such Series of Securities have been cured or waived except nonpayment of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Securities of that Series that has become due solely because of acceleration, and (iii) the Issuer or the Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: (A) all overdue installments of interest on all outstanding Securities of such Series; (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and all other amounts due with respect to any outstanding Securities of such Series which have become due otherwise than by such acceleration; and (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate specified in the Securities of such Series. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of the principal amount of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of that Series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of that Series or this Indenture.

The Trustee may institute and maintain a suit or legal proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities of a Series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No right or remedy is exclusive of any other right or remedy. All available rights and remedies are 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 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any Series then outstanding may by notice to the Trustee

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

waive on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such Series an existing Default and its consequences except (i) a Default in the payment of the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on a Security of that Series, (ii) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Security of that Series when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (iii) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder of that Series affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any Series (with each such Series voting as a class) may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to that Series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is (in the Trustee’s reasonable judgment) unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of that Series or that would (in the Trustee’s reasonable judgment) subject the Trustee to personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on a Security of any Series when due, no Holder of a Security of that Series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities of that Series unless:

(1) the Holder previously gave the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default with respect to that Series is continuing;

(2) the Holders of at least 25%, in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holder or Holders of that Series offer to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense to be, or which may be, incurred by the Trustee in complying with such request;

(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of that Series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

A Holder of Securities of any Series may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of that Series or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of that Series.

SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. The right of any Holder to receive payment of the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities held by such Holder, on or after their Maturity, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after their Maturity, shall be absolute and unconditional (subject to the terms of this Indenture) and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture).

SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing with respect to a Series of Securities, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or the Guarantor for the whole amount then due and owing by the Issuer or the Guarantor (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.

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 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 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, their creditors or their property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07.

No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If any money or property is collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI with respect to any Series of Securities, or while an Event of Default is continuing, any moneys or properties are distributable in respect of the Issuer’s or the Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, such moneys or properties shall be paid out or distributed in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities of that Series for the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities of that Series for the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, respectively; and

THIRD: to the Issuer.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Issuer a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. 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 or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing, by any party litigant in the suit, of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any Series.

SECTION 6.12. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim to take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which would prohibit or forgive the Issuer or the Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of or premium or interest on any Securities when the same becomes due and payable at the Stated Maturity or on redemption, repurchase at the option of the Holders or otherwise as contemplated herein, or may affect the covenants contained herein or any usury or other law or the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Issuer and the Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

SECTION 6.13. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder 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, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall 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.

ARTICLE VII

Trustee

SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Series of Securities, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs.

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that Series, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may, with respect to Securities of that Series, 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. However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section;

(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05.

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act.

SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(f) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document.

(g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any Series unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default given by the Issuer or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities of that Series then outstanding is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references such Securities and this Indenture.

(h) 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 to each Agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

(i) 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 shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request or direction.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(j) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate.

(k) The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty of the Trustee.

(l) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(m) 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.

SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or the Guarantees, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, it shall not be accountable for funds received and disbursed in accordance with this Indenture and it shall not be responsible for any statement in this Indenture, in the Securities, or in any document executed or used in connection with the sale of the Securities, other than those set forth in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default with respect to Securities of any Series occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of that Series notice of the Default within 30 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default with respect to Securities of any Series in payment of the principal amount of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on any Security of that Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders.

SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holder. Within 60 days after May 15 of each year beginning with the first May 15 following the date of this Indenture for so long as Securities remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder as provided in Section 313(c) of the

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

Trust Indenture Act a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Trustee shall also comply with Section 313 (b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed. The Issuer agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever such Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its services as the Issuer and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it in connection with such Series, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts in connection with such Series. The Issuer shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties or exercise of its rights or powers hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence.

To secure the payment obligations pursuant to this Section of the Issuer with respect to a Series, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities of such Series on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee in connection with such Series other than money or property held in trust to pay the principal of and premium and interest on particular Securities.

The Issuer’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of this Indenture, any rejection or termination of this Indenture under any bankruptcy law or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(5) or (6) with respect to the Issuer or the Guarantor, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Law.

“Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each Agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the negligence or willful misconduct of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder.

SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of any Series by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series may remove the Trustee and may appoint a

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

successor Trustee with respect to such Series of Securities. The Issuer shall remove the Trustee if:

(1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10;

(2) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

(4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuer or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any Series or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee) and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of that Series of Securities. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07.

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities of that Series may petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder of that Series of Securities may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate-trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and if at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

SECTION 7.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. At all times, the Trustee shall satisfy the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b)(1) each Series and any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b)(1) are met.

SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or has been removed shall be subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

ARTICLE VIII

Legal Defeasance And Covenant Defeasance; Satisfaction And Discharge

SECTION 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. At the option of the Issuer’s Board of Directors evidenced by resolutions set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, at any time, the Issuer may elect to have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities of any Series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in Section 8.04.

SECTION 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02 with respect to any Series of Securities, the Issuer (and any Guarantor with respect to such Series) shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities of that Series on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities of that Series, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

(a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of that Series to receive solely from the funds deposited in trust with the Trustee described in Section 8.04 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when such payments are due;

(b) Section 4.06 and the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Securities of that Series under Article II;

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(d) this Article VIII.

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof.

SECTION 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 with respect to any Series of Securities, the Issuer (and any Guarantor with respect to such Series) shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Article IVA and Article V with respect to the outstanding Securities of that Series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities of that Series shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities of that Series, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to such Securities under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

SECTION 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof to the outstanding Securities of any Series:

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to any Series of Securities:

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that:

(a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

(b) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Securities of that Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities of that Series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Event of Default with respect to that Series of Securities shall have occurred and be continuing either:

(x) on the date of such deposit (other than an Event of Default with respect to that Series of Securities resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); or

(y) insofar as Sections 6.01(5) or 6.01(6) hereof are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;

(6) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders of that Series of Securities over any other creditors of the Issuer or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others;

(7) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and

(8) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default or Event of Default under, this Indenture.

SECTION 8.05. Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of any outstanding Series of Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. Money so held in trust is not subject to the Trustee’s rights under Section 7.07.

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Securities of that Series.

Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

SECTION 8.06. Repayment to the Issuer. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on any Security of a Series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security, as an unsecured general creditor, shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), or cause to be mailed to such Holder, 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 notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.

SECTION 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 thereof, as the case may be, with respect to any Series of Securities by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such Series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

SECTION 8.08. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. Except as set forth below, upon request of the Issuer, this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to any Series of Securities specified in such request (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such Series expressly provided for herein or pursuant hereto) and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such Series when

(1) either

(A) all Securities of such Series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.08 and Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust by the Issuer with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust as provided in Section 8.06) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(B) all Securities of such Series

(i) have become due and payable, or

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

(iii) if redeemable at the option of the Issuer, 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 Issuer,

and the Issuer, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, solely for the benefit of the Holders, immediately available funds in U.S. dollars in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal, 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 redemption date, as the case may be; provided, however, that there shall not exist on the date of such deposit a Default or Event of Default; provided, further, that such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under this Indenture or a default under any other agreement or instrument to which the Issuer or the Guarantor is a party or to which the Issuer or the Guarantor is bound;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(2) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Issuer; and

ARTICLE IX

Amendments

SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend this Indenture as it applies to any Series of Securities or any of the other terms of such Series without notice to or consent of any Holder:

(1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Issuer or the Guarantor pursuant to Article V or Article X, as the case may be, and the assumption by such successor of the Issuer’s or the Guarantor’s, as applicable, covenants, agreements and obligations in this Indenture and with respect to the Securities and the Guarantee;

(2) to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, to add to the covenants such further covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions for the protection of the Holders of such Series of Securities and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in respect of any such additional covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions a Default or an Event of Default under this Indenture with respect to such Series; provided, however, that with respect to any such additional covenant, restriction, condition or provision, such amendment may provide for a period of grace after default, which may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other Defaults, may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such Default, may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such Default or may limit the right of Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any Series to waive such default;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(3) to cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision contained in this Indenture or in any Securities that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained therein;

(5) to modify or amend this Indenture in such a manner as to permit the qualification of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture under the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect;

(6) to permit Securities in registered form to be exchanged for Securities in bearer form, or to permit or facilitate the issuance of Securities of such Series in uncertificated form, provided that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities in any material respect;

(7) to add Guarantees with respect to the Securities or to secure the Securities;

(8) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of Securities of such Series; or

(9) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor or separate Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more Series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of this Indenture by more than one Trustee.

The Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend this Indenture without notice to or consent of any Holder to add to, change, or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture, so long as any such addition, change or elimination not otherwise permitted under this Indenture shall (A) neither apply to any Security of any Series outstanding at the time of the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor modify the rights of the Holders of any such Security with respect to the benefit of such provision or (B) become effective only when there is no such Security outstanding.

SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. The Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend this Indenture as it applies to any Series of Securities or any of the other terms of such Series with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities of such Series then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange for the Securities). However, without the consent of each Holder of an affected Security, an amendment may not:

(1) make any change to the percentage of principal amount of the outstanding Securities of the applicable Series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any amendment, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture;

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

(2) make any change that adversely affects such Holder’s right to require the Issuer to purchase such Security in accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture;

(3) except as provided under Article VIII hereof or in accordance with the terms of any Guarantee, release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee or make any change in a Guarantee that would adversely affect such Holder;

(4) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 or this Section 9.02, except to increase any percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holders of each Security outstanding affected thereby;

(5) change the Scheduled Maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the premium, if any, or the rate of interest thereon, or change the coin or currency in which, any Securities or any premium or the 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);

(6) change any obligation of the Issuer to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes specified in Section 2.04;

(7) provide for the subordination of a Security or the Guarantee to any obligation of the Issuer or the Guarantor, respectively; or

(8) reduce the redemption price of any Securities.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to all affected Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all such Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section.

An amendment of this Indenture that is approved by the Holders of a particular Series of Securities shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of any other Series of Securities unless such amendment shall also be approved by the requisite Holders of such other Series of Securities.

SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment becomes effective once both (i) the requisite number of consents have been received by the Issuer or the Trustee and (ii) such amendment has been executed by the Issuer and the Trustee. A waiver becomes effective when the requisite Holders have executed such waiver.

The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.

SECTION 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

SECTION 9.06. Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03).

SECTION 9.07. Payment for Consent. Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate of the Issuer shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder of Securities of a Series for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Holders of Securities of such Series, ratably, that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

ARTICLE X

Guarantees

SECTION 10.01. Guarantees. The Guarantor hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of each Security which is authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee for itself and on behalf of each such Holder, the due and punctual payment in full, of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including, in case of default, interest

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

on principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on overdue interest and including any additional interest required to be paid according to the terms of any such Security), if any, on such Security, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon acceleration, upon tender for repayment at the option of any Holder or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of this Indenture and all other obligations of the Issuer with respect to such Security to the Holder or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder (the “Guarantor Obligations”). In case of the failure of the Issuer or any successor thereto punctually to pay in full any such principal, premium or interest, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually in full when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, as if such payment were made by the Issuer. The Guarantor agrees that this Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantor Obligations hereunder with respect to any Securities shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety and shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the identity of the Issuer, the validity, regularity or enforceability of any such Security appertaining thereto or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by the Holder of any such Security with respect to any provisions thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor including but not limited to: (A) any right to require any of the Trustee, the Holders or the Issuer (each a “Benefited Party”), as a condition of payment or performance by the Guarantor, to (1) proceed against the Guarantor, the Issuer or any other Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Guarantor, the Issuer or any other Person or (3) proceed against or have to resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Benefited Party in favor of the Guarantor, the Issuer or any other Person, and (B) any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the obligations under this Guarantee or any agreement or instrument relating hereto. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that its Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of its obligations contained in any such Security and in this Guarantee.

If the Trustee or the Holder of any Security is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or the Guarantor, or any custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or the Guarantor, any amount paid to the Trustee or such Holder in respect of a Security included in such Guarantor’s Guarantor Obligations, the applicable Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. The Guarantor further agrees, to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so, that, as between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations included in such Guarantor’s Guarantor Obligations may be accelerated as provided in Article VI hereof for the purposes of the applicable Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition extant under any applicable bankruptcy law preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

Article VI hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee.

The Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment and performance in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby, provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to restrict any separate indemnity agreement between the Issuer and the Guarantor.

The Guarantor hereby agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in enforcing its respective rights under the Guarantee.

The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation or reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a custodian be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets.

SECTION 10.02. Execution and Delivery of Guarantees. To evidence its Guarantees with respect to Securities of any Series, the Guarantor hereby agrees to execute such Guarantees, in a form included on Exhibit D hereto, to be endorsed on each Security of such Series authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Each such Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by the Chairman of the Board, the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, the president, any vice president, the treasurer, the controller or the secretary of such Guarantor. The signature of any of these officers on the Guarantees may be manual or facsimile.

Guarantees bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of the individuals who were the proper officers of the Guarantor shall bind the Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to or after the authentication and delivery of the Securities upon which such Guarantees are endorsed or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

The delivery of any Securities by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantees endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantees made pursuant to this Article X shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each such Security a notation of such Guarantee.

SECTION 10.03. Limitation of Guarantor’s Liability. The Guarantor and, by its acceptance of a Security guaranteed by such Guarantor, each Holder of such Security hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that in no event shall any Guarantor Obligations under the Guarantees constitute or result in a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of, or result in a violation of, any United States federal, or applicable United States state, fraudulent transfer or conveyance or similar law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, in the event that the Guarantor Obligations in respect of the Securities of any Series would, but for this sentence, constitute or result in such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance or violation, then the liability of the Guarantor under its Guarantees in respect of the Securities of such Series shall be reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate such fraudulent transfer or conveyance or violation under the applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance or similar law.

Amended and Restated

PBGC Indenture

SECTION 10.04. Merger and Consolidation. The Guarantor shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its properties and assets to, any Person, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, unless:

(i) the Guarantor is the surviving Person in such merger or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Guarantor (if not the Guarantor) shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee of the Securities and this Indenture;

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction no Default under Section 6.01(1) or (2) or Event of Default with respect to any Series guaranteed by the Guarantor shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) the Successor Guarantor or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with this Indenture.

In the event of the assumption by the Successor Guarantor of the obligations of the Guarantor as provided above as a result of a merger or consolidation, such Successor Guarantor shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor hereunder and under the Securities and the Guarantee and all such obligations of the Guarantor shall terminate; provided, however, that no sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition shall have the effect of releasing the Person named as the “Guarantor” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor Person which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article from its liability as guarantor under the Guarantee.

A Successor Guarantor may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

United Continental Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), shall pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum of 6% (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months), payable semi-annually in arrears, on each Interest Payment Date until the principal thereof has been paid in full, commencing on July 15, 2013, to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from [__]. The Company shall pay interest at a rate per annum of 7% (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) on any overdue principal of (and premium, if any, on) this Note and (to the extent enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest thereon (without regard to any applicable grace period).

(2) Terms of Payment. Interest on the Notes 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 the Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose under the Indenture; provided, however, that each installment of interest on any Note may be paid at the Company’s option by mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto, to the address of such Person as it appears on the register for such Note or by wire transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar for such Notes and shall appear on the applicable register. Payments of principal of a Note shall be made against surrender of such Note at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture at the Company’s option by check payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto or by wire transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar for such Notes. All amounts payable by the Company with respect to the Notes shall be in U.S. dollars.

(3) Registrar and Paying Agent. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., a national banking association, not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (the “Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes. The Company may remove any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders.

(4) Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under the Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of [•], 2012 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, United Air Lines, Inc., as Guarantor (the “Guarantor”) and the Trustee. This Note is one of a duly authorized series of notes of the Company designated as its 6% Notes due 2026. The Notes are limited in aggregate principal amount to $326,192,000. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent any provision of these Notes limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision

A-3

which is required to be included in the Indenture by the TIA, the required provision shall control. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time.

(5) Optional Redemption/Change of Control Offers.

(a) The Notes will be redeemable, at the Company’s option, at any time, in whole or in part, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date, but without premium or penalty. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a date for redemption of the Notes, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer at a purchase price of 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus interest to the date of purchase.

(6) Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. Where Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the transfer of or make the exchange if its requirements for such transactions are met. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted in the Indenture), but the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than with respect to exchanges of temporary securities, securities redeemed in part, or to amend the terms of a Note). The Company and the Registrar need not register the transfer of or any exchange of any Notes or portions thereof selected, called or being called for redemption.

(7) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

(8) Unclaimed Money. Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of principal of or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust. Thereafter, the Holder of such Note shall look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall cease.

(9) Satisfaction and Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee as trust funds in trust money or

A-4

Government Securities in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to redemption or Maturity.

(10) Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and any existing Default relating to the Notes may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend the Indenture as it applies to any Notes or any of the other terms of such Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any provision contained in the Indenture or in any Notes which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained therein.

(11) Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default relating to certain bankruptcy and similar matters), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of Notes then outstanding may declare the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default relating to certain bankruptcy and similar matters occurs, the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to the terms of the Indenture, the Trustee is not obligated to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture unless the Holders have offered security or indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default with respect to the Notes (except a Default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Notes) in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders.

(12) Trustee Dealings With Company. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

(13) No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company or the Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantor under the Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

(14) Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.
