Acquired Indebtedness means Indebtedness of a Person (i) existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary or (ii) assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person, in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Subsidiary or such acquisition.  Acquired Indebtedness shall be deemed to be incurred on the date of the related acquisition of assets from any Person or the date on which the acquired Person becomes a Subsidiary.

Comparable Treasury Issue means the U.S. Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date) (the “remaining life”) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

 

Comparable Treasury Price means (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for a Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

Intercompany Indebtedness means Indebtedness to which the only parties are the Issuer, any of the Guarantors and any of their respective Subsidiaries (but only so long as such Indebtedness is held solely by any of the Issuer, any of the Guarantors and any of their respective Subsidiaries) that is subordinate in right of payment to the Securities.

Treasury Rate means, with respect to any Redemption Date:

 

(i)                                     the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three

 

3



 

months before or after the remaining life (as defined above), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the treasury rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or

ARTICLE II

 

THE SECURITIES

 

There is established a series of Securities pursuant to the Indenture with the following terms:

 

Section 2.1.  Title of the Securities. The series of Securities established under this Third Supplemental Indenture shall be designated as the “4.000% Senior Notes due 2025” (the “Notes”).

 

Section 2.2.  Aggregate Principal Amount.  The Notes initially will be issued in an aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000 (not including the Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Sections 304, 305 or 306 of the Indenture); provided that the Issuer may, without the consent of Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes, except for the issue date, issue price, the first payment date (if applicable) and payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of the additional Notes, which additional Notes will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture.

 

Section 2.3.  Maturity Date.  The date on which the principal on the Notes is payable is November 15, 2025, subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to acceleration (the “Maturity Date”).

 

Section 2.4.  Ranking.  The Notes will be unsecured senior debt of the Issuer and will rank on a parity with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Issuer.

 

Section 2.5.  Interest.  The Notes will bear interest from, and including, October 26, 2015, or from, and including, the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to, but excluding, the applicable interest payment date or Maturity Date of the Notes, as applicable, at a rate of

 

4



 

4.000% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing May 15, 2016. The Issuer will pay interest to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on May 1 or November 1 next preceding the interest payment date. The Issuer will compute interest on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If any interest payment date or Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, Make-Whole Premium (as defined below), if any, or interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date on which such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such interest payment date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

Section 2.6.  Place of Payment for Principal and Interest.  The principal of, Make-Whole Premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose, pursuant to the Indenture, in the City of New York, which initially shall be the corporate trust office of the Trustee; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer, such payment of principal, Make-Whole Premium, if any, or interest may be made by check mailed to the person entitled thereto as provided in the Indenture.

 

Section 2.7.  Defeasance.  The Notes shall be subject to legal defeasance under Section 402 of the Indenture and to covenant defeasance under Section 403 of the Indenture as permitted pursuant to Section 401 of the Indenture.

 

Section 2.8.  Sinking Fund.  The Notes shall not have the benefit of any sinking fund.

 

Section 2.9.  Form and Dating.

 

(a)                                 The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

 

(b)                                 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Third Supplemental Indenture, and the Issuer, the Parent Guarantor and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Third Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Notes conflicts with the express provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

 

(c)                                  The Notes will be issued in the form of a fully-registered global security (the “Global Security”). The Depository Trust Company shall serve as the depository (the “Depositary”) for the Global Security. The Global Security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depositary and registered, at the request of the Depositary, in the name of Cede & Co. Except as set forth below, the Global Security may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only by the Depositary to its nominee or by its nominee to such Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or its nominee to a successor of the Depositary or a nominee of such successor. If (i) the Depositary is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 calendar days after receipt of such notice from the Depositary; (ii) the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and the Issuer does not appoint a successor depositary within 90 calendar days of becoming aware that the Depositary has ceased to be registered as a clearing agency; (iii) the Issuer, in its sole discretion, determines that the Notes

 

5



 

will be exchangeable for definitive securities in registered form and notifies the Trustee of its decision; or (iv) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes represented by the Global Security has occurred and is continuing, then in each case the Issuer may issue Notes in certificated form in exchange for the Global Security. In each of these instances, an owner of an interest in the Global Security would be entitled to physical delivery of such Notes in certificated form. Notes so issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and will be issued in registered form only.

 

Section 2.10.  Optional Redemption.  The Notes may be redeemed at the Issuer’s option in whole or, from time to time, in part prior to the Maturity Date as follows:

 

(a)                                 If the Notes are redeemed before August 15, 2025, (the “Par Call Date”) the Notes will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

 

(i)                                     100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to be redeemed; and

 

(ii)                                  the sum, as set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of, and interest on, the Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date), assuming such Notes matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points (the “Make-Whole Premium”);

 

plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

 

(b)                                 If the Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

 

(c)                                  If any Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, Make-Whole Premium, if any, or interest on the Notes to be redeemed will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date on which such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Redemption Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if the next such succeeding Business Day falls on a day in the next succeeding calendar year with respect to a Redemption Date, the required payment of principal, Make-Whole Premium, if any, or interest on the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding such Redemption Date on which payment was due.

 

Section 2.11.  Notice of Redemption.  Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 of the Indenture not later than 15 days and not earlier than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed.

In addition to the covenants set forth in the Indenture, the Issuer hereby further covenants as follows:

 

Section 3.1.  Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness.

 

(a)                                 The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness, other than Intercompany Indebtedness, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication):

 

(1)                                 the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness; and

 

(2)                                 the purchase price of any assets included in the definition of Total Assets acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire items included in the definition of Total Assets or used to reduce indebtedness), by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness.

 

(b)                                 The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Indebtedness is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5:1, on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that:

 

(1)                                 such Indebtedness and any other Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Indebtedness, had occurred at the beginning of such period;

 

(2)                                 the repayment or retirement of any other Indebtedness by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except

 

7



 

that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such period);

 

(3)                                 in the case of Acquired Indebtedness or Indebtedness incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and

 

(4)                                 in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Indebtedness had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.

 

(c)                                  The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Indebtedness secured by any Encumbrance upon any of the property of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, whether owned at the date of the Indenture or thereafter acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness secured by an Encumbrance and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis which is secured by any Encumbrance on property of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication):

 

(1)                                 the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness; and

 

(2)                                 the purchase price of any assets included in the definition of Total Assets acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire items included in the definition of Total Assets or used to reduce Indebtedness), by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness.

 

(d)                                 The Issuer and its Subsidiaries may not at any time own Total Unencumbered Assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Section 3.2.  Insurance.  Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors shall cause each of their properties and each of the properties of their respective Subsidiaries to be insured against loss or damage with insurers of recognized responsibility, in commercially reasonable amounts and types and with insurers having a specified rating from a recognized insurance rating service.

 

Section 3.3.  Provision of Financial Information.  Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 704 of the Indenture, the Issuer and the Guarantors agree that if the Issuer is not then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer will (i) transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, without cost to such Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Issuer were subject to such Sections, and (ii) file with the Trustee copies of annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Issuer were subject to such Sections, in each case, within 15 days after the respective dates by which the Issuer would have been required so to file such reports and other documents if the Issuer were so subject.

 

Section 3.4.  Waiver of Certain Covenants.  The Issuer and the Guarantors may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, inclusive, of this Third Supplemental Indenture, if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of more than 50% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall, in each case by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors and the duties of the Trustee for the Notes with respect to any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.
