Securities pursuant to paragraph 7 of the Securities, such Securities shall be
purchased by the Issuers pursuant to paragraph 7 of the Securities on each

the Issue Price of the Security for any Purchase Date occurring on or prior to
February 7, 2021 and (ii) the Issue Price plus accrued Contingent Additional
Principal, if any, as of the relevant Purchase Date for any Purchase Date
occurring after February 7, 2021, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:
(1) delivery to the Paying Agent, by the Holder of a written notice
of purchase (a "Purchase Notice") at any time from the opening of business
on the date that is at least 20 Business Days prior to a Purchase Date
until the close of the third Business Day prior to such Purchase Date
stating:
(A) the certificate number of the Security which the Holder
will deliver to be purchased,
(B) the portion of the Principal Amount at Maturity of the
Security which the Holder will deliver to be purchased, which
portion must be a Principal Amount at Maturity of $1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof, and
(C) that such Security shall be purchased as of the Purchase
Date pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in paragraph 7
of the Securities and in this Indenture; and
(2) delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent prior to, on or
after the Purchase Date (together with all necessary endorsements) at the
offices of the Paying Agent, such delivery being a condition to receipt by
the Holder of the Purchase Price
-2-
therefor; provided, however, that such Purchase Price shall be so paid
pursuant to this Section 3.08 only if the Security so delivered to the
Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in
the related Purchase Notice, as determined by the Issuers.
The Issuers shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this
Section 3.08, a portion of a Security if the Principal Amount at Maturity of
such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this
Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security also apply to the
purchase of such portion of such Security.
Any purchase by the Issuers contemplated pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 3.08 shall be consummated by the delivery of the cash
consideration to be received by the Holder (including accrued and unpaid
Contingent Cash Interest, if any) promptly following the later of the Purchase
Date and the time of delivery of the Security.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder
delivering to the Paying Agent the Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section
3.08(a) shall have the right to withdraw such Purchase Notice at any time prior
to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Purchase Date by
delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance
with Section 3.10.
The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Issuers of the receipt by
it of any Purchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.
(b) Purchase with Cash. On each Purchase Date, the Purchase Price of
Securities in respect of which a Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 3.08(a) has
been given shall be paid by the Issuers with cash equal to the aggregate
Purchase Price of such Securities.
(c) The Issuers' Notice. The Issuers shall send a notice (the
"Issuers' Notice") to the Holders (and to beneficial owners as required by
applicable law) in the manner provided in Section 12.02 not less than 20
Business Days prior to the applicable Purchase Date (the "Issuers' Notice
Date"). Each Issuers Notice shall include a form of Purchase Notice to be
completed by a Securityholder and shall state:
(i) the Purchase Price, the Conversion Rate and, to the extent known
at the time of such notice, the amount of Contingent Cash Interest, if
any, that will be accrued and payable with respect to the Securities as of
the Purchase Date;
(ii) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion
Agent;
(iii) that Securities as to which a Purchase Notice has been given
may be converted pursuant to Article 10 hereof only if the applicable
Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture;
(iv) that Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to
collect payment of the Purchase Price and Contingent Cash Interest, if
any;
-3-
(v) that the Purchase Price for any Security as to which a Purchase
Notice has been given and not withdrawn, together with any accrued
Contingent Cash Interest payable with respect thereto, will be paid
promptly following the later of the Purchase Date and the time of
surrender of such Security as described in (iv);
(vi) the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights under
Section 3.08 and a brief description of those rights;
(vii) briefly, the conversion rights of the Securities;
(viii) the procedures for withdrawing a Purchase Notice (including,
without limitation, for a conditional withdrawal pursuant to the terms of
Section 3.10);
(ix) that, unless the Issuers default in making payment of such
Purchase Price, Contingent Additional Principal and Contingent Cash
Interest, if any, on Securities called for redemption will cease to accrue
on after the Purchase Date; and
(x) the CUSIP number of the Securities.
At the Issuers' request, the Trustee shall give such
Issuers' Notice in the Issuers' name and at the Issuers' expense;
provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Issuers'
Notice shall be prepared by the Issuers.
(d) Procedure upon Purchase. The Issuers shall deposit cash at the
time and in the manner as provided in Section 3.11, sufficient to pay the
aggregate Purchase Price of, and any accrued and unpaid Contingent Cash Interest
with respect to, all Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.08."
2.5 Section 3.10 of the Indenture is hereby amended and restated in its
entirety to read as follows:
"SECTION 3.10 Effect of Purchase Notice or Change in Control
Purchase Notice. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the Purchase Notice or
Change in Control Purchase Notice specified in Section 3.08(a) or Section
3.09(c), as applicable, the Holder of the Security in respect of which such
Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as the case may be, was
given shall (unless such Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice is
withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs) thereafter be entitled
to receive solely the Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the
case may be, and any accrued and unpaid Contingent Cash Interest, with respect
to such Security. Such Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price and
Contingent Cash Interest, if any, shall be paid to such Holder, subject to
receipts of funds and/or securities by the Paying Agent, promptly following the
later of (x) the Purchase Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the
case may be, with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section
3.08(a) or Section 3.09(c), as applicable, have been satisfied) and (y) the time
of delivery of such Security to the Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the
manner required by Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.09(c), as applicable. Securities
in respect of which a Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as
the case may be, has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted
pursuant to Article 10 hereof on or after the date of the delivery of such
Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as the case may be, unless
such Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase
-4-
Notice, as the case may be, has first been validly withdrawn as specified in the
following two paragraphs.
A Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as the case
may be, may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to
the office of the Paying Agent in accordance with the Purchase Notice or Change
in Control Purchase Notice, as the case may be, at any time prior to the close
of business on the Purchase Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the
case may be, specifying:
(1) the certificate number of the Security in respect of which such
notice of withdrawal is being submitted,
(2) the Principal Amount at Maturity of the Security with respect to
which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and
(3) the Principal Amount at Maturity, if any, of such Security which
remains subject to the original Purchase Notice or Change in Control
Purchase Notice, as the case may be, and which has been or will be
delivered for purchase by the Issuers.
There shall be no purchase of any Securities pursuant to Section
3.08 or 3.09 if there has occurred (prior to, on or after, as the case may be,
the giving, by the Holders of such Securities, of the required Purchase Notice
or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as the case may be) and is continuing an
Event of Default (other than a default in the payment of the Purchase Price or
Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, and any accrued and unpaid
Contingent Cash Interest with respect to such Securities). The Paying Agent will
promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Securities (x) with
respect to which a Purchase Notice or Change in Control Purchase Notice, as the
case may be, has been withdrawn in compliance with this Indenture, or (y) held
by it during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than a default in the
payment of the Purchase Price or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case
may be, and any accrued and unpaid Contingent Cash Interest with respect to such
Securities) in which case, upon such return, the Purchase Notice or Change in
Control Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been
withdrawn."
2.6 The second paragraph of Section 7 of Exhibit A-1 to the Indenture is
hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
"The Purchase Price shall be paid in cash."
3. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Supplemental
Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.
4. Modification, Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Supplemental
Indenture may not be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except by a
execution of a Supplemental Indenture executed by the Issuers, and, to the
extent such amendment, supplement or waiver limits or impairs the rights of any
Securityholder, by such Securityholder. Any such amendment shall comply with
Article 9 of the Indenture. Until an amendment, waiver or other
-5-
action by Securityholders becomes effective, a consent thereto by a
Securityholder of a Security hereunder is a continuing consent by the
Securityholder and every subsequent Securityholder of that Security or portion
of the Security that evidences the same obligation as the consenting
Securityholder's Security, even if notation of the consent, waiver or action is
not made on the Security. However, any such Securityholder or subsequent
Securityholder may revoke the consent, waiver or action as to such
Securityholder's Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the
notice of revocation before the date the amendment, waiver or action becomes
effective. After an amendment, waiver or action becomes effective, it shall bind
every Securityholder.
5. Ratification of Indenture; Supplemental Indenture Part of Indenture.
Except as expressly amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified
and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain
in full force and effect. In the event of a conflict between the terms and
conditions of the Indenture and the terms and conditions of this Supplemental
Indenture, then the terms and conditions of this Supplemental Indenture shall
prevail. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all
purposes, and every holder of Securities heretofore or hereafter authenticated
and delivered shall be bound hereby.
6. Trust Indenture Acts Controls. If any provision of this Supplemental
Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with any provision of the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended ("TIA"), that is required under the TIA to be
part of and govern any provision of this Supplemental Indenture, the provision
of the TIA shall control. If any provision of this Supplemental Indenture
modifies or excludes any provisions of the TIA that may be so modified or
excluded, the provisions of the TIA shall be deemed to apply to the Indenture as
so modified or to be excluded by this Supplemental Indenture, as the case may
be.

CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO
CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT
TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.

those of the Company, OCI or OFI, as applicable. The Trustee makes no
representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture.

together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this
Supplemental Indenture.
10. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience
only and shall not effect the construction thereof.
11. Notices. Any request, demand, authorization, notice, waiver, consent
or communication to any of the parties shall be made as set forth in Section
12.02 of the Indenture, as said Section may be amended hereby.
