such global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of
outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges or redemptions. Any endorsement of a global Note to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of outstanding Notes represented thereby
shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified in such Note or in a Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section&nbsp;303. Subject to the provisions of

Order. With respect to Notes that are represented by a global Note, the Company authorizes the execution and delivery by the Trustee of a letter of representations or other similar agreement or instrument in the form customarily provided for by the
Depository appointed with respect to such global Note. Any global Note may be deposited with the Depository or its nominee, or may remain in the custody of the Trustee pursuant to a FAST Balance Certificate Agreement or similar agreement between the
Trustee and the Depository. If a Company Order has been, or simultaneously is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or delivery or redelivery of a Note in global form shall be in writing but need not comply with

Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i)&nbsp;the registered holder of a global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any
Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through an Agent Member, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes and (ii)&nbsp;nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or
any agent of the Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or shall impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices
