Issue Description Terms Execution Registration and Exchange of Securities. SECTION 2.01. The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Securities may be issued in one or more series up to the aggregate principal amount of Securities of that series authorized in or pursuant to one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the initial issuance of Securities of a particular series. Prior to the initial issuance of Securities of any series, there shall be established in or pursuant to one or more indentures supplemental hereto: (1) the title of the Securities of the series (which shall distinguish the Securities of the series from all other Securities); (2) any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of the series which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon 27 10 registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities of the series); (3) the date or dates on which the principal of the Securities of the series is payable and the right, if any, to extend or shorten such date or dates and the conditions, if any, to such extension; (4) the rate or rates at which the Securities of the series shall bear interest or the manner of calculation of such rate or rates, if any; (5) the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue, the Interest Payment Dates on which such interest will be payable or the manner of determination of such Interest Payment Dates and the record date for the determination of holders to whom interest is payable on any such Interest Payment Dates; (6) the right, if any, to extend or defer the interest payment periods and the duration of such extension or deferral and the conditions, if any, to such an extension or deferral; (7) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and the terms and conditions upon which, Securities of the series may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company; (8) the obligation, if any, of the Company to redeem or purchase Securities of the series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions (including payments made in cash in anticipation of future sinking fund obligations) or at the option of a holder thereof and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and the terms and conditions upon which, Securities of the series shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation; (9) the form of the Securities of the series, including the form of the Certificate of Authentication for the series; (11) whether the Securities of the series are issuable as a Global Security and, in such case, the identity of the Depositary for the Securities of the series; (12) any and all other terms with respect to the Securities of the series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture); (13) if the Securities of the series are to be deposited as trust assets in a JPM Capital Trust, the name of the applicable JPM Capital Trust (which shall distinguish such statutory business trust from all other JPM Capital Trusts) into which the Securities of the series are to be deposited as trust assets and the date of its Declaration of Trust; and (14) any condition to, or restriction on, the transferability of the Securities. All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to any indenture supplemental hereto. SECTION 2.02. The Securities of any series and the Trustee's certificate of authentication to be borne by such Securities shall be substantially of the tenor and purport as set forth in one or more indentures supplemental hereto and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Securities of that series may be listed, or to conform to usage. SECTION 2.03. The Securities shall be issuable as registered Securities and in the denominations of $25 or any integral multiple thereof, subject to Section 2.01(10). The Securities of a particular series shall bear interest payable on the dates and at the rate specified with respect to that series. The principal of and the interest on the Securities of any series, as well as any premium thereon in case of redemption thereof prior to maturity, shall be payable in such coin or currency of the United States of 29 12 America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The interest installment on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that series shall be paid to the person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment. In the event that any Security of a particular series or portion thereof is called for redemption and the redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that series and on or prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Security will be paid upon presentation and surrender of such Security as provided in Section 3.03. Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities of that series (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular record date by virtue of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below: (1) clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall not be more than 15 nor 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 Company of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, 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 Securityholder at his or her address as it appears in the Security Register (as hereinafter defined), 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 mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Securities (or their Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and shall be no longer payable pursuant to the following clause (2). (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any 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 Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.
