SECTION 104.

Acts of Holders; Record Date.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer and the Guarantor. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the

–15–

authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Issuer, or the Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

The Issuer or the Guarantor may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities, provided that the Issuer may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If not set by the Issuer prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such matter referred to in the foregoing sentence, the record date for any such matter shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 701) prior to such first solicitation. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Issuer from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 512. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be

–16–

entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Issuer’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Issuer in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

SECTION 105.

Notices, Etc., to Trustee and Issuer.

SECTION 106.

Notice to Holders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

SECTION 107.

The Application of the Trust Indenture Act.

The Trust Indenture Act shall apply as a matter of contract to this Indenture for purposes of interpretation, construction and defining the rights and obligations hereunder. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on

–19–

the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or at the Stated Maturity, provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

taken together with the principal amounts of all other Outstanding Securities, shall not exceed $350,000,000 in the aggregate at any one time) as may be set forth in the records of the trustee hereinafter referred to in accordance with the Indenture,] on August 1, 2015, and to pay interest thereon from July 18, 2005 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 in each year, commencing February 1, 2006, at the rate of 5.25% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the rate of 7.25% per annum on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue installment of interest until paid. [If Original Securities, then insert — provided, however, that if (i) the Issuer and the Guarantor have not filed a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), registering a security substantially identical to this Security pursuant to an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) (the “Exchange Registration Statement”) by September 16, 2005, or, if applicable, a registration statement registering this security for resale (the “Resale Registration Statement”) has not been filed on or prior to the date (the “Resale Registration Filing Deadline”) upon which it is required to be filed under the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 18, 2005 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) or (ii) the Exchange Registration Statement relating to the Exchange Offer has not become or been declared effective by January 14, 2006 or, if applicable, the Resale Registration Statement has not been declared effective within 90 days of Resale Registration Filing Deadline or (iii) the Exchange Offer has not been completed within 30 business days after the date on which the Exchange Registration Statement has become or been declared effective initially or (iv) either the Exchange Registration Statement or, if applicable, the Resale Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (except as specifically permitted therein) without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective or (v) the Issuer and the Guarantor have not consummated the Exchange Offer (or, if applicable, the Resale Registration Statement has not become effective) within 240 days following the Closing, in each case (i) through (v) upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, by and between the Issuer and the Holders from time to time of the Securities (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (v), a “Registration Default”), then the per annum interest rate borne by the Securities shall increase (the “Step-Up”) by 0.25% per annum on the principal amount of the Securities for the first 90 days after the occurrence of the Registration Default and by an additional 0.25% per annum on the principal amount of the Securities thereafter until such time (the “Step-Down Date”) as no Registration Default is in effect (after which such interest rate will be restored to its initial rate). Interest accruing as a result of the Step-Up is referred to herein as “Additional Interest.” Accrued Additional Interest shall be paid semi-annually on the Interest Payment Dates; and the amount of accrued Additional Interest shall be determined on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed. Any accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) on this Security upon the issuance of an Exchange Security in exchange for this Security shall cease to be payable to the Holder hereof but such accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) shall be payable on the next Interest Payment Date for such Exchange Security to the Holder thereof on the

–23–

related Regular Record Date.] The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the January 15 or July 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in Jacksonville, Florida or in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Form of Reverse of Security.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Issuer designated as its 5.25% Notes due August 1, 2015 (herein called the “Securities”), limited in aggregate principal amount to $350,000,000, issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of July 18, 2005 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Issuer, the Guarantor and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Securities may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, upon notice of not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such Securities.

The Securities do not have the benefit of any sinking fund obligations.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (i) the entire indebtedness of this Security or (ii) certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer, the Guarantor, and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Issuer or by the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be

–26–

conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in Jacksonville, Florida or in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like tenor and aggregate principal amount of Securities of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

–27–

Prior to due presentment of this 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 this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Interest on this Security shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, provided, however, that Additional Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as the case may be, and the number of days actually elapsed.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The Indenture and this Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

Form of Guarantee.

GUARANTEE

For value received, Regency Centers Corporation, as Guarantor (the “Guarantor”), hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein. In case of the failure of the Issuer punctually to make any such payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such

–28–

payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Issuer.

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of such Security or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same or any release or amendment or waiver of any term of any other Guarantee of, or any consent to departure from any requirement of any other Guarantee of all or of any of the Securities, the election by the Trustee or any of the Holders in any proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Issuer, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of the Trustee or any of the Holders for payment of any of the Securities, any waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee or either of them with respect to any provisions thereof or of the Indenture, the obtaining of any judgment against the Issuer or any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. The Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, any requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders exhaust any right or take any action against the Issuer or any other Person, 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 or notice with respect to such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenant that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Security and in this Guarantee. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such Security, whether at their Stated Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee without first proceeding against the Issuer. The Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, the Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the Guarantee of the Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed.

–29–

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of this Security against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantor on account of this Security pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee or the Indenture; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security and all other Securities issued under the Indenture shall have been paid in full.

This 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 receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Securities is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Securities whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Securities shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Reference is made to Article Twelve of the Indenture for further provisions with respect to this Guarantee.

SECTION 301.

Title and Terms.

The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $350,000,000, except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 906 or 1108. After the Initial Issue Date and prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer, the Issuer may issue Additional Original Securities from time to time, pursuant to a Board Resolution, subject to Section 303, included in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, in authorized denominations; provided the aggregate principal amount of the Securities Outstanding after such issuance does not exceed $350,000,000. The Issuer may issue Exchange Securities from time to time pursuant to an Exchange Offer or otherwise, in each case pursuant to a Board Resolution, subject to Section 303, included in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, in authorized denominations in exchange for a like principal amount of the Original Securities. Upon any such exchange the Securities shall be canceled in accordance with Section 310 and shall no longer be deemed Outstanding for any purpose. In no event shall the aggregate principal amount of the Original Securities and Exchange Securities Outstanding exceed $350,000,000.

The Securities shall be known and designated as the “5.25% Notes due August 1, 2015” of the Issuer. Their Stated Maturity shall be August 1, 2015 and they shall accrue interest at the rate of 5.25% per annum (subject, in the case of the Original Securities, to increase at the rate of 0.25% or 0.50% per annum, as provided in such Original Security), from July 18, 2005 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1, commencing February 1, 2006 until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment.

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer in Jacksonville, Florida or in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York maintained for such purpose and at any other office or agency maintained by the Issuer for such purpose; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

The Securities shall be redeemable as provided in Article Eleven. The Securities shall be guaranteed by the Guarantor as provided in Article 12.

–32–

Unless the context otherwise requires, the Original Securities and the Exchange Securities shall constitute one series for all purposes under the Indenture, including without limitation, amendments, waivers or redemptions.

The Securities shall be subject to defeasance at the option of the Issuer as provided in Article Thirteen.

SECTION 302.

Denominations.

The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiples thereof.

SECTION 303.

Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the Chairman of the Board, the President or one of the Vice Presidents of its general partner, attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries and the Guarantee to be endorsed on the Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice-Presidents. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

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

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Securities executed by the Issuer having a Guarantee endorsed thereon executed by the Guarantor to the Trustee for authentication, together with an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities with the Guarantee of the Guarantor endorsed thereon; and the Trustee in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities with the Guarantee of the Guarantor endorsed thereon as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, and (i) prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer, in the case of Additional Original Securities or (ii) after the effectiveness of a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect thereto, in the case of Exchange Securities, the Issuer may deliver Additional Original Securities or Exchange Securities, as the case may be, executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Additional Original Securities or Exchange

–33–

Securities, as applicable, and a like principal amount of Original Securities for cancellation in accordance with Section 310 of this Indenture, in the case of Exchange Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

(a) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(b) if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(c) that such Securities have been duly and validly issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and are entitled to all the rights and benefits set forth herein;

(d) that all conditions precedent to the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been complied with and that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; and

(e) that the issuance of the Exchange Securities in exchange for the Original Securities has been effected in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence,

–34–

and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 310, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

SECTION 304.

Temporary Securities.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Issuer may execute and the Guarantor may execute, and upon Issuer Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Issuer shall execute and the Guarantor shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such tenor.

SECTION 305.

Global Securities.

(a) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Issuer for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer

–35–

of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary (A) has notified the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (B) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act, and in either case the Issuer fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days, (ii) the Issuer executes and delivers to the Trustee an Issuer Order stating that it elects to cause the issuance of the Securities in certificated form and that all Global Securities shall be exchanged in whole for Securities that are not Global Securities (in which case such exchange shall be effected by the Trustee) or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or any Event which after notice or lapse of time or both would be an Event of Default with respect to the Securities.

(c) If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in whole, it shall be surrendered by or on behalf of the Depositary or its nominee to the Trustee, as Security Registrar, for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article Three. If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this Article Three or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee, as Security Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 306(c) and as otherwise provided in this Article Three, authenticate and deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion thereof) to or upon the order of the Issuer, and registered in such names as may be directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with the occurrence of any of the events specified in the preceding paragraph, the Issuer shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any order, direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article Three if such order, direction or request is given or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Article Three or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

–36–

(e) The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture and the Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Agent Members.

SECTION 306.

Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally; Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange; Securities Act Legends.

(a) Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally. The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers and exchanges of Securities as herein provided. Such Security Register shall distinguish between Original Securities and Exchange Securities.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, and provided that the other requirements of this Section 306 have been satisfied, the Issuer shall execute and the Guarantor shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denominations, of a like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.

At the option of the Holder, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 306, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denominations, of a like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and the Guarantor shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantor, evidencing the same debt, and (except for the differences between Original Securities and Exchange

–37–

Securities provided for herein) entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 906 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

If the Securities are to be redeemed in part, the Issuer shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities selected for redemption under Section 1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(b) Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities, transfers and exchanges of Securities and beneficial interests in a Global Security of the kinds specified in this Section 306(b) shall be made only in accordance with this Section 306(b).

(i) Restricted Global Security to Regulation S Temporary Global Security or Regulation S Global Security. If the owner of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to acquire the same in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security (if before the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period) or in the Regulation S Global Security (if thereafter), such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (b)(i) subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) an order given by the Depositary or its authorized representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security or Regulation S Global Security (as applicable) in a specified principal amount be credited to a specified agent member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in an equal principal amount be debited from another specified agent member’s account and (B) a Regulation S Certificate, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A duly executed by the owner of such beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security

–38–

Registrar but subject to Clause (b)(iv) below, shall reduce the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security and increase the principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Security or Regulation S Global Security (as applicable) by such specified principal amount as provided in Section 306(b).

(ii) Regulation S Temporary Global Security to Restricted Global Security. If the owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a Person who wishes to acquire the same in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with this Clause (b)(ii) and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Security Registrar, of (A) an order given by the Depositary or its authorized representative directing that a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security in a specified principal amount be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account and that a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security in an equal principal amount be debited from another specified Agent Member’s account and (B) a Restricted Securities Certificate, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex B duly executed by the owner of such beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Trustee, as Security Registrar, shall reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Security and increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by such specified principal amount as provided in Section 306(b).

(iii) Exchanges between Global Security and Non-Global Security. A beneficial interest in a Global Security may be exchanged for a Security that is not a Global Security as provided in Section 306, provided that, if such interest is a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security, or if such interest is a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security, then such interest shall be exchanged for a Restricted Security (subject in each case to Section 305(b)).

(iv) Regulation S Temporary Global Security to be Held Through Euroclear or Clearstream during Distribution Compliance Period. The Issuer shall use its best efforts to cause the Depositary to ensure that beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security may be held only in or through accounts maintained at the Depositary by Euroclear or Clearstream (or by Agent Members acting for the account thereof), and no Person shall be entitled to effect any transfer or exchange that would result in any such interest being held otherwise than in or through such an account; provided that this Clause (b)(iv) shall not prohibit any transfer or exchange of such an interest in accordance with Clause (b)(ii) above.

(c) Securities Act Legends. Rule 144A Securities and their respective Successor Securities shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend, and Regulation S

–39–

Securities and their Successor Securities shall bear a Regulation S Legend, subject to the following:

(i) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 306(c), a Security or any portion thereof which is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such Global Security while represented thereby;

(ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 306(c), a new Security which is not a Global Security and is issued in exchange for another Security (including a Global Security) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, shall bear the Securities Act Legend borne by such other Security, provided that, if such new Security is required pursuant to Section 306(b)(iii) to be issued in the form of a Restricted Security, it shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend and, if such new Security is so required to be issued in the form of a Regulation S Security, it shall bear a Regulation S Legend;

(iii) Exchange Securities shall not bear a Securities Act Legend;

(iv) at any time after the Securities may be freely transferred without registration under the Securities Act or without being subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to the Securities Act, a new Security which does not bear a Securities Act Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if the Trustee has received an Unrestricted Securities Certificate, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C duly executed by the Holder of such legended Security or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and after such date and receipt of such certificate, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver such a new Security in exchange for or in lieu of such other Security as provided in this Article Three;

(v) a new Security which does not bear a Securities Act Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Security (other than a Global Security) or any portion thereof which bears such a legend if, in the Issuer’s judgment, placing such a legend upon such new Security is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer, shall authenticate and deliver such a new Security as provided in this Article Three; and

(vi) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 306(c), a Successor Security of a Security that does not bear a particular form of Securities Act Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Issuer has reasonable cause to believe that such Successor Security is a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144, in which case the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer, shall authenticate and deliver a new Security bearing a Restricted Securities Legend in exchange for such Successor Security as provided in this Article Three.

–40–

SECTION 307.

Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and the Guarantor shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Guarantor 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 the Guarantor shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security 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 or the Guarantor 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 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 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 308.

Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Interest on any Security 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 that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”)

–41–

shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2).

(2) The Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered 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.

–42–

SECTION 309.

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 (subject to Section 308) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor, or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 310.

Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Issuer or the Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer or the Guarantor may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuer has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Issuer Order.

SECTION 311.

Computation of Interest.

Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months; provided, however, that Additional Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be, and the number of days actually elapsed.

ARTICLE FOUR

SECTION 401.

Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

(1) either

(A) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 307 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

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

(iii) 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 or the Guarantor, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and

–44–

interest 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;

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

(3) the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to this Article Four, the obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantor to the Trustee under Section 607, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 614 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Sections 307 and 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive.

SECTION

402. Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer or the Guarantor acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee.

SECTION 502.

Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(7) or (8)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may declare the principal amount of all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal and any accrued interest shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(7) or (8) occurs, the principal amount of and any accrued interest on the Securities shall automatically, and without any

–47–

declaration or other Act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder become immediately due and payable.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

(1) the Issuer or the Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay

(A) all overdue interest on all Securities,

(B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest thereon at the rate provided by the Securities,

(C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate provided by the Securities, and

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel;

and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

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

–48–

SECTION 503.

Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Issuer covenants that if

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof,

the Issuer and the Guarantor will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate provided by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

If the Issuer or the Guarantor fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders 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 504.

Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or the Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such 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,

–49–

disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

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; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee.

SECTION 505.

Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

SECTION 506.

Application of Money Collected.

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; and

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively.

–50–

SECTION 507.

Limitation on Suits.

No Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

(5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

SECTION 508.

Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 308) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

–51–

SECTION 509.

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 Guarantor, 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.

SECTION 510.

Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 307, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be 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 511.

Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

SECTION 512.

Control by Holders.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and

–52–

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

SECTION 513.

Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security, or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 514.

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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided, that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Issuer.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Issuer.

Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuer or the Guarantor or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or the Guarantor or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer or the Guarantor, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request, or (if then held by the Issuer or the Guarantor) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer and the Guarantor 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 and the Guarantor as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer and the Guarantor cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published

–69–

on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, 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 publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be.

SECTION 1004.

Existence.

Subject to Article Eight, the Issuer will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Board of Directors in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 1005.

Maintenance of Properties.

The Issuer will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary of the Issuer to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Issuer may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Issuer from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

SECTION 1006.

Payment of Taxes and Other Claims.

The Issuer and the Guarantor will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Issuer, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Issuer, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuer and the Guarantor shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

–70–

SECTION 1007.

Maintenance of Insurance.

The Issuer and the Guarantor shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, keep at all times all of their properties which are of an insurable nature insured against loss or damage with insurers believed by the Issuer to be responsible to the extent that property of similar character is usually so insured by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties in commercially reasonable amounts and types. The Issuer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use the proceeds from any such insurance policy to repair, replace or otherwise restore the property to which such proceeds relate.

SECTION 1008.

Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness.

Neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary will incur any Indebtedness if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Trustee (or such reports of Regency if filed by the Issuer with the Trustee in lieu of filing its own reports) prior to the incurrence of the additional Indebtedness and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent that the proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Indebtedness) by the Issuer or any Subsidiary since the end of the calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of the additional Indebtedness.

In addition to the foregoing limitation on the incurrence of Indebtedness, neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary will incur any Indebtedness secured by any Encumbrance upon any of the property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis which is secured by any Encumbrance on property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Trustee (or such reports of Regency if filed by the Issuer with the Trustee in lieu of filing its own reports) prior to the incurrence of the additional Indebtedness and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent that the proceeds were not used to acquire real

–71–

estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Indebtedness) by the Issuer or any Subsidiary since the end of the calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of the additional Indebtedness.

The Issuer and its Subsidiaries must at all times own Total Unencumbered Assets equal to at least 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

In addition to the foregoing limitations on the incurrence of Indebtedness, neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary will incur any Indebtedness if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Indebtedness is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5 to 1, on a pro forma basis, after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom and calculated on the assumption that (i) such indebtedness and any other Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including Indebtedness to refinance other Indebtedness, had occurred at the beginning of the period, (ii) the repayment or retirement of any other Indebtedness by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been incurred, repaid or retired at the beginning of that period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of the Indebtedness during such period), (iii) in the case of Acquired Indebtedness or Indebtedness incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of the four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of the period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to the acquisition being included in the pro forma calculation, and (iv) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, including, without limitation, by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Indebtedness had occurred as of the first day of such period with appropriate adjustments with respect to the acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.

Provision of Financial Information.

Whether or not the Issuer is required to be subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision thereto, the Issuer shall file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provision thereto if the Issuer were so required, such

–72–

documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which the Issuer would have been required so to file such documents if the Issuer were so required. The Issuer and the Guarantor will, for so long as any of the Original Securities are outstanding, furnish to Holders of the Original Securities and to security analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) of the Securities Act.

If filing such documents by the Issuer with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, the Issuer shall (a) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date file with the Trustee copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provisions thereto if the Issuer were required to be subject to such Sections and (b) promptly upon written request supply copies of such documents to any Holder or prospective Holder.

SECTION 1011.

Statement by Officers as to Default; Compliance Certificates.

(a) The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, and within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter (other than the fourth fiscal quarter), of the Issuer ending after the date hereof an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Issuer is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of Section 801 or Sections 1004 to 1010, inclusive, and if the Issuer shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge.

(b) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 10 days after the Issuer becomes aware or should reasonably become aware of the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or default, and the action which the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto.

SECTION 1012.

Waiver of Certain Covenants.

The Issuer may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Section 801 and Sections 1004 to 1010, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so

–73–

expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Issuer and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE ELEVEN

SECTION 1101.

Right of Redemption.

The Securities may be redeemed at the election of the Issuer, as a whole or from time to time in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such Securities (the “Redemption Price”).

Redemption of Securities at the election of the Issuer, as permitted by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article.

SECTION 1103.

In case of any redemption at the election of the Issuer of less than all the Securities, the Issuer shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Issuer (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on the redemption provided in the terms of the Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction.

–74–

SECTION 1104.

Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed.

If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities of a denomination larger than $1,000.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and each Security Registrar in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 1105.

Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date,

(2) the Redemption Price,

(3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

(4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and

(5) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price.

–75–

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at the Issuer’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer and shall be irrevocable.

SECTION 1106.

Deposit of Redemption Price.

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 1107.

Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 308.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate provided by the Security.

SECTION 1108.

Securities Redeemed in Part.

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the Issuer designated for that purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Issuer or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuer and the Guarantor shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as

–76–

requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

ARTICLE TWELVE

Guarantee

SECTION 1201.

Guarantee.

The Guarantor, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuer now or hereafter existing under this Indenture whether for principal of or interest on the Securities (and premium, if any) and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities in respect of the Securities and (b) the full and punctual performance within the applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Securities (all such obligations guaranteed hereby by the Guarantor being the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The guarantee of the Guarantor under this Article 12 is herein referred to as the “Guarantee”.

The Guarantor agrees to pay any and all fees and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Article 12 with respect to the Guarantor.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Guarantee guarantees, to the extent provided herein, the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Securities but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Issuer.

SECTION 1202.

Guarantee Absolute.

This Guarantee is irrevocable, absolute and unconditional. The Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Trustee or the Holders with respect thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee, irrespective of

–77–

whether any action is brought against the Issuer or any other guarantor or whether the Issuer or any other guarantor is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any lack of validity, regularity or enforceability of this Indenture or the Securities with respect to the Issuer or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Indenture;

(c) the failure to give notice to the Guarantor of the occurrence of a default under the provisions of this Indenture or the Securities;

(d) any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other Guarantee, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) any failure, omission, delay by or inability on the part of the Trustee or the Holders to assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on the Trustee or the Holders in this Indenture or the Securities;

(f) any change in the corporate or other structure, or termination, dissolution, consolidation or merger of the Issuer or the Guarantor with or into any other entity, the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Issuer or the Guarantor, the marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Issuer or the Guarantor, the receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition with creditors, or readjustments of, or other or other similar proceedings affecting the Issuer or the Guarantor, or any of the assets of any of them;

(g) the election by the Trustee or any of the Holders in any proceeding under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Issuer, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of the Trustee or any of the Holders for payment of any of the Securities, any waiver or consent by the Holder of such Security or by the Trustee with respect to any provisions thereof or of this Indenture;

(h) the assignment of any right, title or interest of the Trustee or any Holder in this Indenture or the Securities to any other Person; or

–78–

(i) any other event or circumstance (including any statute of limitations), whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Issuer or the Guarantor, other than performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations for the payment of money; it being the intent of the Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by payment of all amounts owing pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities.

This Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment or performance with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made or occurred. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall not be subject to reduction, termination or other impairment by any set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or defense or for any other reason.

SECTION 1203.

Waivers.

The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) promptness, demand for payment, diligence, presentment, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and its Guarantee;

(b) any requirement that the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person protect, secure, perfect or insure any Encumbrance or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Issuer or any other Person, or obtain any relief pursuant to this Indenture or pursue any other available remedy;

(c) all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Indenture or the Securities;

(d) 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 or notice with respect to such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever;

(e) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Trustee or any Holder which in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects its subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights or other rights to proceed against the Issuer or any other Person; and

–79–

(f) any duty on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to disclose to the Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of the Issuer and its assets now known or hereafter known by the Trustee or such Holder.

SECTION 1204.

Waiver of Subrogation and Contribution.

Until this Indenture has been discharged, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other right which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Issuer or the Guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Trustee or any Holder against the Issuer or the Guarantor which the Trustee or any Holder now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from the Issuer, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Trustee, and the Holders, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the waivers set forth in this Section 1204 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

The Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. The Guarantor further agrees that, as between itself, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 5 hereof for the purposes of its Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 5 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of its Guarantee.

–80–

SECTION 1205.

Certain Agreements.

The Guarantor covenants and agrees that, as a condition to the acceptability of its Guarantee to the Trustee and the Holders, it will:

(a) comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, such compliance to include paying when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon it or upon its property except to the extent contested in good faith; and

(b) preserve and maintain its existence, rights (contractual and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be required to preserve any right or franchise if the board of directors or general partner of the Guarantor shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Guarantor and the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Guarantor or such Holders.

(c) not consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person whether or not affiliated with the Guarantor unless:

(i) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger is organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and, unless such successor entity is the Issuer, unconditionally assumes all the obligations of the Guarantor pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, under the Securities, the Indenture and its Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein; and

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no default or Event of Default with respect to the Securities exists.

Any such consolidation or merger is subject to the condition that the Trustee receive an Officers’ Certificate of the Guarantor and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the consolidation or merger and the assumption by any successor entity, complies with the provisions of this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transactions have been complied with.

In case of any such consolidation or merger and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee endorsed upon the Securities and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Guarantor. The Guarantor’s Guarantee shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms

–81–

of this Indenture as though the Guarantee had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

SECTION 1206.

Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

The Guarantee to be endorsed on the Securities shall include the terms of the Guarantee set forth in this Article 12 and any other terms that may be set forth in the form established pursuant to Section 205. The Guarantor hereby agrees to execute the Guarantee, in a form established pursuant to Section 205, to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.

The Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents. The signature of any or all of these persons on a Guarantee may be manual or facsimile.

A Guarantee bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time 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 the authentication and delivery of the Security on which such Guarantee is endorsed or did not hold such offices at the date of such Guarantee.

The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 1201 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Security.

SECTION 1207.

No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. The Trustee and the Holders shall have all of the rights and remedies granted in this Indenture and available at law or in equity, and these same rights and remedies may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against the Issuer or the Guarantor.

–82–

SECTION 1208.

Continuing Guarantee.

The Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and, except as otherwise provided herein, shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) be binding upon the Guarantor and (c) enure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the Holders and their successors, transferees and assigns.

SECTION 1209.

Severability.

Any provisions of this Article 12 which is prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition, unenforceability or non-authorization, without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, enforceability or legality of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 1210.

Limitation on Guarantor Liability.

The Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee by the Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the Guarantor under this Article 12 shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 12, if any, result in the obligations of the Guarantor under such Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 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) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 307, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article Thirteen.

–84–

or (5) of Section 801), 501(4) (with respect to any of Sections 1005 through 1010, inclusive), 501(5) and 501(6) shall not be deemed to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Securities as provided in this Section, on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”). For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Securities, 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 Section or Clause, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or Clause, or by reason of any reference in any such Section or Clause to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

SECTION 1304.

Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1302 or Section 1303 to any Securities:

(1) The Issuer shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 609 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case, sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of (and premium, if any,) and each installment of interest on the Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of interest in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the

–85–

Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt.

(2) In the case of an election to have Section 1302 apply to any Securities, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (x) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (y) 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 shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.

(3) In the case of an election to have Section 1303 apply to any Securities, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and covenant defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance had not occurred.

(4) The Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that the Securities, if then listed on any securities exchange, will not be delisted as a result of such deposit.

(5) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest as defined in Section 608 and for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

(6) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as subsections 501(7) and (8) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 121st

–86–

day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

(7) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is bound.

(8) The Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance under Section 1302 or the covenant defeasance under Section 1303 (as the case may be) have been complied with.

(9) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company as defined in the Investment Company Act or such trust shall be qualified under such act or exempt from regulation thereunder.

SECTION 1305.

Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively, for purposes of this Section 1305, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of the 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 (including the Issuer acting as its own 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 (and premium, if any) and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 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.

Anything in this Article Thirteen to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon Issuer Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1304 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount

–87–

thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent defeasance or covenant defeasance.

SECTION 1306.

Reinstatement.

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 1302 or 1303 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture and the Securities from which the Issuer has been discharged or released pursuant to Section 1302 or 1303 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article Thirteen until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 1302 or 1303; 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 the Paying Agent.

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
