FIFTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE dated as October 31, 2022 by and between Micron Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

The Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee (as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association) an indenture, dated as of February 6, 2019 (the “Base Indenture”), providing for the issuance from time to time of one or more Series of the Company’s securities.

Section 9.1 of the Base Indenture provides that the Company and the Trustee, without the consent of any holders of the Company’s Securities, from time to time may amend or supplement certain terms and conditions in the Base Indenture, including to provide for the issuance of and establishment of terms of a Series of Securities as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 2.2 thereof.

The Company desires and has requested the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Base Indenture to join with it in the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture (together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) in order to supplement the Base Indenture as, and to the extent, set forth herein to provide for the issuance of and establish the forms and terms and conditions of the Notes (as defined below).

The execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by votes of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof.

All conditions and requirements necessary to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid, binding and legal instrument in accordance with its terms have been performed and fulfilled by the parties hereto and the execution and delivery thereof have been in all respects duly authorized by the parties hereto.

The Company and the Trustee agree as follows for the benefit of each other and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders (as defined herein) of the 6.750% Senior Notes due 2029:

Section 1.1.    Relationship with Base Indenture.

The terms and provisions contained in the Base Indenture will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of the Base Indenture conflicts with the express provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, as applicable, will govern and be controlling.

The Trustee accepts the amendment of the Base Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture and agrees to execute the trust created by the Base Indenture as hereby amended, but only upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Supplemental Indenture, including the rights, privileges and immunities of the Trustee set forth in the Base Indenture and the terms and provisions defining and limiting the liabilities and responsibilities of the Trustee in the performance of the trust created by the Base Indenture, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee will not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for, or with respect to, any of the recitals or statements contained herein, all of which recitals or statements are made solely by the Company, or for, or with respect to, (1) the proper authorization of this Supplemental Indenture by the Company, (2) the due execution hereof by the Company or (3) the consequences (direct or indirect and whether deliberate or inadvertent) of any amendment herein provided for, and the Trustee makes no representation with respect to any such matters.

Further, the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; it being understood that the Trustee shall use its best efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

Section 1.2.    Definitions.

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Base Indenture. The following terms have the meanings given to them in this Section 1.2:

“Additional Notes” means any Notes (other than the Initial Notes) issued under this Supplemental Indenture in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, as part of the same Series as the Initial Notes.

“Aggregate Debt” means the sum of the following as of the date of determination: (1) the then aggregate outstanding amount of the Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, without duplication, incurred after the Issue Date and secured by Liens not otherwise permitted by Section 4.2(a) hereof; and (2) the then existing Attributable Debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of Sale and Lease Back Transactions, without duplication, entered into after the Issue Date pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 4.3 hereof; provided that any such Attributable Debt will be excluded from this clause (2) to the extent that Indebtedness relating thereto is included in clause (1) of this definition, provided further, that in no event will the amount of any Indebtedness be required to be included in the calculation of Aggregate Debt more than once despite the fact that more than one person is liable with respect to such Indebtedness and despite the fact that such Indebtedness is secured by the assets of more than one person (for example, and for avoidance of doubt, in the case where there are Liens on assets of one or more of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries securing such Indebtedness, the amount of Indebtedness so secured shall only be included once in the calculation of Aggregate Debt). Whenever a calculation is to be made with respect to creation or incurrence under revolving credit Indebtedness, such calculation may, at the Company’s election, be determined by treating the maximum committed amount of such revolving credit Indebtedness as having been incurred on the date of such calculation, whether or not such amount has actually been drawn upon, and, if such election has been made, (i) subsequent borrowings and reborrowings of such revolving credit Indebtedness (and related Liens), up to the maximum committed amount, shall not be deemed additional incurrences of Indebtedness (and related Liens) requiring calculations of the amount of Aggregate Debt (but subsequent borrowings in connection with increases in such maximum committed amount shall require calculations under this definition, or shall otherwise comply with Section 4.2 hereof), and (ii) for purposes of subsequent calculations under this definition, the maximum committed amount of such revolving credit Indebtedness on the date of any such calculation shall be deemed to be outstanding throughout such period, whether or not such amount is actually outstanding. The Company may revoke an election pursuant to this paragraph at any time, at which time the entire drawn outstanding amount of such revolving credit Indebtedness will be deemed to be incurred and secured by any relevant Liens at such time.

“Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or exchange of or for beneficial interests in any Global Note, the rules and procedures established by and customary for the Depositary that apply to such transfer or exchange.

“Attributable Debt” means in connection with a Sale and Lease Back Transaction the lesser of: (1) the fair value of the assets subject to such transaction, as determined in good faith by a Senior Officer of the Company; and (2) the present value of the minimum rental payments called for during the terms of

the lease (including any period for which such lease has been extended), determined in accordance with GAAP, discounted at a rate that, at the inception of the lease, the lessee would have incurred to borrow over a similar term the funds necessary to purchase the leased assets.

“Base Indenture” has the meaning set forth in the preamble to this Supplemental Indenture, as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof.

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the rating on the Notes is lowered by two or more of the Rating Agencies within 60 days from the earlier of (1) the date of the first public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control or (2) the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies); provided, however, that a particular reduction in rating will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event) unless each of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply announces or publicly confirms that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event); provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, a Below Investment Grade Rating Event shall not be deemed to have occurred so long as the Notes are rated Investment Grade by two or more of the Rating Agencies.

“Change of Control” means:

(i) any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of     the Exchange Act), other than the Company, its Subsidiaries or any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, files a Schedule 13D or Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or report) pursuant to the Exchange Act disclosing that such person has become the direct or indirect “beneficial owner” (as such term is used in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of the Company, unless such beneficial ownership (a) arises solely as a result of a revocable proxy delivered in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, and (b) is not also then reportable on Schedule 13D (or any successor schedule) under the Exchange Act, except that for the purpose of this clause (1) a person will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all shares that such person has the right to acquire irrespective of whether that right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time); provided, however, that a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control under this clause (1) if (a) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company, and (b)(i) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (ii) immediately following that transaction no “person” or “group”(other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company; or

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) – H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities – Treasury constant maturities – Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields — one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life — and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

“Voting Stock” of a person means all classes of capital stock or other interests (including partnership interests) of such person then outstanding and normally entitled (without regard to the occurrence of any contingency) to vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees thereof.

The Notes will be in minimum denominations of $2,000 with integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling.

(2)    Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes as will be specified therein and each will provide that it will represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.2 hereof. The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes.

Section 2.2.    Transfer and Exchange.

(a)    Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if:

(1) the Company delivers to the Trustee notice from the Depositary that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary;

(2) an Event of Default has occurred and the Trustee has received a written request from DTC that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes; or

(3) the Company in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depositary determines that the Global Notes (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for Definitive Notes and delivers a written notice to such effect to the Trustee.

Upon the occurrence of either of the preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Definitive Notes will be issued in such names and in any approved denominations as the Depositary will instruct the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.8 and 2.11 of the Base Indenture. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.2 (subject to any contrary provision in this Section 2.2(a)) or Sections 2.8 or 2.11 of the Base Indenture, will be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and will be, a Global Note. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.2(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Sections 2.2(b) or (f) hereof.

(b)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also will require compliance with either subparagraph (1) or (2) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:

(1)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Global Note may be transferred to persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note. No written orders or instructions will be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.2(b)(1).

(2)    All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to Section 2.2(b)(1) above, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar:

(i)    a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged; and

(ii)    instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase.

Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee will adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.2(f) hereof.

(c)    Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Beneficial Interests.

A Holder of a Definitive Note may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note or transfer such Definitive Notes to a person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note at any time. Upon receipt of a request for such an exchange or transfer, the Trustee will cancel the applicable Definitive Note and increase, or cause to be increased, the aggregate principal amount of one of the applicable Global Notes.

If any such exchange or transfer from a Definitive Note to a beneficial interest is effected pursuant to the previous paragraph at a time when a Global Note has not yet been issued, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee will authenticate one or more Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of Definitive Notes so transferred.

(d)    Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes for Definitive Notes. A Holder of Definitive Notes may transfer such Notes to a person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a Definitive Note. Upon request by a Holder of Definitive Notes and such Holder’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.2(d), the Registrar will register the transfer or exchange of Definitive Notes. Prior to such registration of transfer or exchange, the requesting Holder will present or surrender to the Registrar the Definitive Notes duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by such Holder or by his attorney, duly authorized in writing. In addition, the requesting Holder will provide any additional required certifications, documents and information, as applicable.

(5)    If the Company elects to redeem or make an Offer to Purchase, neither the Company nor the Trustee will be required to:

(i)    issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the Company sends the notice of redemption under Section 3.3 of the Base Indenture or makes an Offer to Purchase and ending at the close of business on the day the notice is sent or the Offer to Purchase is made;

Section 2.3.    Issuance of Additional Notes.

(a)    The Company will be entitled, upon delivery of a Company Order, Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, to issue Additional Notes under this Supplemental Indenture which will have identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the date hereof, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the initial interest accrual date. The Initial Notes issued on the date hereof and any Additional Notes issued will be treated as a single Series for all purposes under this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.4.    Execution and Authentication.

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Company by manual, electronic or facsimile signature.

Section 3.1.    Optional Redemption.

(a)    Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(i)    the Remaining Scheduled Payments of such Notes to be redeemed, less interest accrued to the date of redemption; and

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

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

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may, at its option, redeem any Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

In connection with any redemption of the Notes, calculation of the redemption price therefor shall be made by the Company or on the Company’s behalf by such person as the Company shall designate; provided, however, that such calculation shall not be a duty or obligation of the Trustee or any Agent. Notwithstanding Section 3.3 of the Base Indenture, the notice of any redemption of the Notes pursuant to that Section in respect of a redemption date occurring prior to the maturity date of the Notes need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation thereof. Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 calendar days but not more than 60 calendar days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed (with a copy to the Trustee). Any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

In the case of a partial redemption of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate (provided that if the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes, the Notes shall be selected for redemption by the Depositary in accordance with its standard procedures therefor) and may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of the Notes equal to an authorized denomination.

No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Section 3.2. Mandatory Redemption.

The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Section 4.1.    Offer to Purchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a)    If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem all Notes in full pursuant to Section 3.1 or has defeased the Notes or satisfied and discharged the Notes, the Company shall be required to make an offer (an “Offer to Purchase”) to each Holder of the Notes to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer set forth below. In an Offer to Purchase, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase of such Notes (a “Change of Control Purchase Price”). Not later than 60 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered (or if the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes, transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s standard procedures therefor) a notice to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to purchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days after the date such notice is delivered or transmitted (a “Expiration Date”) and a settlement date for purchase (a “Change of Control Purchase Date”) for such Offer to Purchase of not more than five

Business Days after the Expiration Date. The notice shall also contain instructions and materials necessary to enable Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the offer. The notice shall, if delivered or transmitted prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date.

(b)    Such notice shall also state:

(1)    that the Offer to Purchase is being made pursuant to this Section 4.1 and that all Notes or portion of such Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn will be accepted for payment;

(2)    the Change of Control Purchase Price and the Change of Control Purchase Date;

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

(4)    that any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer to Purchase shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price of the Notes and the only remaining right of the Holder is to receive payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price upon surrender of the Notes to the Paying Agent;

(5)    that Holders electing to have a portion of a Note purchased pursuant to an Offer to Purchase may only elect to have such Note purchased in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that the unrepurchased portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000;

(6)    that if a Holder elects to have a Note purchased pursuant to the Offer to Purchase such Holder will be required to surrender such Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Note 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 prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date, or, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures;

(7)    that a Holder will be entitled to withdraw its election if the Company receives, not later than the close of business on the Expiration Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Notes such Holder delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Note purchased; and

(8)    that if Notes are purchased only in part by the Company, a new Note of the same type will be issued in principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered.

(c)    On the Change of Control Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(1)    accept for payment all Notes or portions of such Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase;

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

(3)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of such Notes being repurchased.

(d)    On the Change of Control Purchase Date the Change of Control Purchase Price will become due and payable on each Note accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, and, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price, interest on Notes purchased will cease to accrue on and after the Change of Control Purchase Date.

(e)    The Company shall not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to Notes if (i) a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and the third party purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer or (ii) the Company has sent a notice of redemption pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Supplemental Indenture.

(f)    The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such securities laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions under this Section 4.1, the Company shall comply with such securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.1 or the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein this Section 4.1, an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon the applicable Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of such Offer to Purchase.

(h)    No Notes of $2,000 or less can be repurchased in part pursuant to this Section 4.1. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be repurchased in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be repurchased.

(i) If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in an Offer to Purchase and the Company, or any third party approved in writing by the Company making an Offer to Purchase in lieu of the Company pursuant to Section 4.1(e) above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, to redeem (with respect to the Company) or purchase (with respect to a third party) all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase on a date (the “Second Change of Control Purchase Date”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the Second Change of Control Purchase Date.

Section 4.2.    Liens.

(a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to create or incur any Lien, except Permitted Liens, on any Principal Property owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or on any shares of Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in order to secure any Indebtedness, without effectively providing that the Notes then outstanding (together with, if the Company so determines, any other Indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with the Notes) shall be substantially concurrently equally and ratably secured (or, at the Company’s option, secured prior thereto), until such time as such Indebtedness is no longer secured by such Lien.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.2(a) above, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may, without equally and ratably securing the Notes then outstanding, create or incur Liens which would otherwise be subject to the restrictions set forth in the preceding paragraph, if after giving effect thereto, Aggregate Debt does not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (a) $5.6 billion, and (b) 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company immediately preceding the date of the creation or incurrence of the Lien. The Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company also may, without equally and ratably securing the Notes, create or incur Liens that extend, renew, substitute, reinstate or replace (including successive extensions, renewals, substitutions, reinstatements or replacements), in whole or in part, any Lien permitted pursuant to this or the preceding sentence and any Liens that secure any extension, renewal, replacement, reinstatement, refinancing or refunding (including any successive extensions, renewals, replacements, reinstatements, refinancings or refundings) of any Indebtedness at any time prior to or within 12 months after the maturity, retirement or other repayment or prepayment of the Indebtedness (including any such repayment pursuant to amortization obligations with respect to such Indebtedness) being extended, renewed, substituted, replaced, refinanced or refunded, which Indebtedness is or was secured by a Lien permitted pursuant to Section 4.2(a) above or this Section 4.2(b).

(c) For purposes of this Section 4.2, (i) the creation of a Lien to secure Indebtedness which existed prior to the creation of such Lien will be deemed to involve Indebtedness in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the fair value (as determined in good faith by a Senior Officer of the Company) of the asset subjected to such Lien and (y) the principal amount secured by such Lien, and (ii) in the event that a Lien meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Permitted Liens or Liens permitted by the preceding paragraph, the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify, and may reclassify, such Lien and only be required to include the amount and type of such Lien as a Permitted Lien or a Lien permitted by Section 4.2(b) above, and a Lien may be divided and classified and reclassified into more than one of such types of Liens. In addition, for purposes of calculating compliance with the foregoing covenant, in no event will the amount of any Indebtedness or Liens securing any Indebtedness be required to be included more than once despite the fact more than one person is or becomes liable with respect to such Indebtedness and despite the fact such Indebtedness is secured by the assets of more than one person (for example, and for avoidance of doubt, in the case where there are Liens on assets of one or more of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries securing any Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness secured shall only be included once for purposes of such calculations).

(d) Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 4.2(a) above may provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes.

Section 4.3.    Sale and Lease Back Transactions.

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to enter into any Sale and Lease Back Transaction with respect to any Principal Property owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into any Sale and Lease Back Transaction which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions if after giving effect thereto and at the time of determination, Aggregate Debt does not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (a) $5.6 billion, and (b) 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company immediately preceding the closing date of the Sale and Lease Back Transaction.
