Registration shall not affect the negotiability of the coupons, which shall continue to be transferable by delivery, and the payment of any coupon to the bearer thereof shall be a discharge of the Company in respect of the interest therein mentioned.

It is a part of the contract herein contained that each holder hereof waives all right of recourse to any personal, statutory or other liability of any promoter, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation for the collection of any indebtedness hereunder as more fully provided in said Indenture.

This bond shall not become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under said Indenture until the certificate hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee.

If this bond or any portion hereof ($1,000 or any multiple thereof) is duly designated for redemption, if payment of the principal hereof or of such portion, together with accrued interest, and premium, if any, is irrevocably provided for, and if notice of such redemption shall have been duly given,

 

25


provided for or waived, this bond or such portion shall cease to be entitled to the lien of the Indenture from and after the date such payment is irrevocably so provided for and shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption.

In the event of the selection for redemption of a portion only of the principal of this bond, payment of the redemption price will be made at the option of the registered owner, either (a) upon presentation of this bond for notation hereon of such payment of the portion of the principal of this bond so called for redemption, or (b) upon surrender of this bond in exchange for a bond or bonds, in either registered or coupon form (but only of authorized denominations of the same series), for the unredeemed balance of the principal amount of this bond.

The Indenture provides that (1) the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time outstanding (determined as provided in the Indenture) including, if more than one series of bonds shall be at the time outstanding, not less than sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in principal amount of the bonds at the time oustanding of each series affected, may effect, by an indenture supplemental to the Indenture, further modifications or alterations of the Indenture and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and coupons; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made without the consent of the registered owner hereof which will (a) extend the maturity of this bond or reduce the rate or extend or otherwise change the time of payment of interest hereon or reduce the amount of the principal hereof or reduce any premium payable on the redemption hereof, or (b) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture, or alter the equal and proportionate security afforded by the lien of the Indenture for the bonds issued thereunder, or (c) reduce the number or percentage of the principal amount of the bonds upon the consent of the holders of which modifications or alterations may be made as aforesaid or defaults may be waived; and (2) the holders of like percentages of the principal amount of the bonds outstanding and of each series thereof may waive certain uncured past defaults and the consequences thereof.

In certain events of default, the principal of this bond may become or be declared due and payable before maturity as provided in said Indenture.

This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by his duly authorized attorney, on books of the Company kept for the purpose,

 

26


at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee upon surrender of this bond for cancellation and upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges provided for in the Indenture, and thereupon a new registered bond of the same series of like principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.

The registered owner of this bond at his option may surrender the same for cancellation at said office and receive in exchange therefor the same aggregate principal amount of registered bonds of the same series but of other authorized denominations or coupon bonds of the same series of the denomination of One Thousand Dollars, bearing coupons representing interest from the last interest payment date to which interest has been paid on this bond, or both such registered bonds and coupon bonds, upon payment, if the Company shall so require, of the charges provided for in the Indenture and subject to the terms and conditions therein set forth.

Payment of interest by the Company to the registered holder of this bond will be a discharge of the Company with respect to such interest.

It is a part of the contract herein contained that each holder hereof waives all right of recourse to any personal, statutory or other liability of any promoter, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation for the collection of any indebtedness hereunder as more fully provided in said Indenture.

This bond shall not become obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under said Indenture until the certificate hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee.
