Section 5.03.    Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes, and the following shall apply in lieu thereof. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.02(d) or Section 5.02(e)) occurs and is continuing with respect to a Series of Notes, then the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such Series may, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), declare the principal amount of all such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration such principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest shall become immediately due and payable. However, upon an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.02(d) or Section 5.02(e), the principal amount of all outstanding Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes to the acceleration date, shall be due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes of a Series has been made but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such Series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal and interest, if any, of Notes which have become due solely as a result of such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under the Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or been abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 5.04.    References in Base Indenture. With respect to the Notes, references to “Section 6.01(1),” “Section 6.01(2),” “Section 6.01(3),” “Section 6.01(4),” and “Section 6.01(5)” in the Base Indenture shall be deemed to refer to Section 5.02(c), Section 5.02(b), Section 5.02(c), Section 5.02(d), and Section 5.02(e) of this Second Supplemental Indenture, respectively.
