However, the Notes may be reopened by the Company for the issuance of additional Notes, so long as any such additional Notes have the same form and terms (other than the date of issuance and, under certain circumstances, the issue price and the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue), and carry the same right to receive accrued and unpaid interest, as the Notes theretofore issued; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes may not be reopened if the Company has effected satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Notes pursuant to Section 401 of the Indenture or defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes pursuant to Section 402 of the Indenture; and provided, further, that no additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such additional Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
    Supporting evidence: (b) The aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is initially limited to U.S. $500,000,000, except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 905 or 1107 of the Indenture.
