Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth following the Company’s signature hereto, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to following the Company’s signature hereto by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
