The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

 

2.                                      Method of Payment.  The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date.  Holders must surrender Notes to the Trustee to collect principal payments.  The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”).  Payment of principal of and any such interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose; provided that at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Holder entitled thereto as such address appears in the Note register, provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest on all global Notes; provided, further, that the Company will pay all principal and interest on any global Notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee in immediately available funds to DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such global Notes.

 

3.                                      Paying Agent.  Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent.  The Company may change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders.

 

4.                                      Indenture.  The Company and the Trustee entered into an Indenture, dated as of May 25, 2017 (the “Base Indenture”) and a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 25, 2017 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), setting forth certain terms of the Notes pursuant to Article 2 of the Base Indenture.  Terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Base Indenture and those made part of the Base Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Base Indenture.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of Notes are referred to the Base Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them.  To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of this Note shall govern.

 

5.                                      No Optional Redemption.  The Notes are not subject to optional redemption by the Company.

 

6.                                      Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.  The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.  A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture.  The Company may require a Holder,

 



 

among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture.

 

7.                                      Persons Deemed Owners.  The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

 

8.                                      Unclaimed Funds.  If funds for the payment of principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the funds to the Company at its written request.  After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

 

9.                                      Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance.  As provided in the Indenture, the Company may be discharged from its obligations under the Notes and under the Indenture with respect to the Notes except for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Notes and in the Indenture with respect to the Notes, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

 

10.                               Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.  Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of all series then outstanding affected by such amendment or supplement (voting as one class), and any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture with respect to a series may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Notes of such series then outstanding, except a default in the payment of principal or interest on the Notes.  Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note in any material respect.

 

11.                               Defaults and Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued interest to the date of declaration, may be declared to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.  Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received security or indemnity satisfactory to it.  The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power.

 

12.                               No Sinking Fund.  There is no sinking fund provided for the Notes.

 

13.                               Trustee Dealings with Company.  Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA and the Indenture, the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee.

 

14.                               No Recourse Against Others.  No stockholder, director, officer, employee, member or incorporator, as such, of the Company, or any successor Person thereof shall have any liability for any obligation under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of a Note by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

 



 

15.                               Authentication.  This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

17.                               CUSIP Numbers.  Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes.  No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.
