Period	Redemption Price
2022	102.875	%
2023	101.438	%
2024 and thereafter	100.000	%

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time prior to June 15, 2022, the Company may redeem in the aggregate up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Company, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount thereof) of 105.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at least 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 120 days after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed to each holder of the Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

(d) If an optional redemption date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. In determining the redemption price and accrued interest, interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption and those Notes will cease to be outstanding.

(e) The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, the Treasury Rate or any aspect of such calculations.

(f) If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes for redemption in compliance with the requirements of the Depository, or if the Notes are not held through a Depository or the Depository prescribes no method of selection, by lot, in accordance with the Depository’s customary procedures, subject to adjustments so that no Note in an unauthorized denomination remains outstanding after such redemption or purchase; provided, however, that no Note of $2,000 in aggregate principal amount of less shall be redeemed in part.

(g) Notices of optional redemption will be sent by electronic submission (for Notes held in book-entry form) or first class mail at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 4 of the Base Indenture.

(h) If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Notes that is to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Note upon cancellation of the original Note if such Notes are held in physical form.

(i) The Company and its affiliates may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market, by tender offer, negotiated transactions or otherwise.

SECTION 3.2 Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 3.1 with respect to all outstanding Notes and all conditions to such redemption have either been satisfied or waived, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.2 (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Sections 3.1 with respect to all outstanding Notes, the Company shall send a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by law, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. If a Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.2 by virtue of such compliance.

(1) accept or cause a third party to accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit or cause a third party to deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an officer’s certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased by the Company and that all conditions precedent to the Change of Control Offer and to the repurchase by the Company of Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer have been complied with.

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(d) The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer with respect to such Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all the Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture with respect to the Notes under Section 3.1, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.2, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event (whether or not a Ratings Event has occurred), if a definitive agreement is in place for a Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(e) No Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

The Company’s obligations to cause the issuance of the guarantees hereunder shall only apply with respect to any specific Subsidiary until such time as such Subsidiary has been released from its obligations pursuant to Section 8.3.

ARTICLE V

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

This Article V shall replace and supersede in its entirety Article 5 of the Base Indenture with the exception of Sections 501(f), 501(g) and 502 of the Base Indenture.

SECTION 5.1 Events of Default.

(a) Each of the following is an “Event of Default” with respect to the Notes:

(1) default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and the continuance of such default for 30 days;

(2) default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable;

(3) default for 60 days after written notice specifying the default from the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes to comply with any other agreement in the Indenture not specified above;

(4) an event of default under any indenture or instrument under which the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary has outstanding at least $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Debt, which results in the acceleration of that Debt where the acceleration is not rescinded or annulled within 30 days after notice pursuant to the Indenture has been provided; or

(5) an Event of Default under Section 501(f) or Section 501(g) of the Base Indenture in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary has occurred.

(b) The Trustee may withhold notice to the Holders of the Notes of any default, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium or interest, if it considers such withholding of notice in the interest of such Holders.

SECTION 5.2 Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a)(5) above with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable immediately.

(b) If an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a)(5) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Company, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders of the Notes.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture or the Notes at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any costs, liability and expenses, except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, when due.

(d) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to such Notes.

(e) No Holder of the Notes may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against any costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(f) In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall be required, in the exercise of its powers, to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or the Notes or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to security or indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all costs, liability and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

(g) The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes rescind any acceleration or waive any existing or past defaults and its consequences under the Indenture, if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, except that each Holder of the Notes affected by a default must consent to a waiver of:

(1) a default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes; and

(2) a default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be amended or modified without the consent of each Holder of the Notes.

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article VIII shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes expressed in this Article VIII are cumulative and exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits that either may have under this Article VIII at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

(c) Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes in enforcing any rights under this Section 8.1.

(d) Upon request of the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to give effect to this Supplemental Indenture.

(a) Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders of the Notes against the Company in respect of any amounts paid to such Holders of the Notes by such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of its Guarantee.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders of the Notes in respect of any Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 502 of the Base Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantees herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Section 502 of the Base Indenture, such Obligations shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 8.2.

SECTION 8.3 Release of Guarantees. A Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released, and the Guarantor that granted such Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released from its Obligations:

(a) in the event that all of the capital stock or other equity interests, or all or substantially all of the assets, of such Guarantor are sold or transferred, including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, in a transaction in compliance with the terms of the Indenture;

(b) upon defeasance as provided in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as provided in Article 4 of the Base Indenture;

(d) upon release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee of all indebtedness under the Credit Agreement other than a release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee.

SECTION 8.4 Limitation and Effectiveness of Guarantees. Each Guarantee is limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor that gave such Guarantee without rendering such Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or the maximum amount otherwise permitted by law.

SECTION 8.5 Notation not Required. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 8.1 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

HILLENBRAND, INC.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

(1) Interest. Hillenbrand, Inc., an Indiana corporation, or its successor (together, the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note (the “Notes”) at a fixed rate of 5.7500% per annum. The Company will pay interest in United States dollars semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2020 or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”).

Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

(2) Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest, if any) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such Regular Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 301 of the Base Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which, initially, will be the corporate trust office of the Trustee located at U.S. Bank National Association, 60 Livingston Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota 55107, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided written wire transfer instructions to the Company and the Paying Agent (as described below). Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

Any payments of principal of and interest on this Note prior to Stated Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. The amount due and payable at the maturity of this Note shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at an office of the Trustee or the Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes.

(3) Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, shall act as Paying Agent and registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

(4) Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an indenture dated as of July 9, 2010 (the “Base Indenture,”), a supplemental indenture, dated as of January 10, 2013 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), a second supplemental indenture, dated as of April 15, 2016 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), a third supplemental indenture, dated as of September 25, 2019 (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”) and a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of June 16, 2020 (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”, and together with the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”). To the extent the provisions of this Note are inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of the Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms.

A-3

The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, the Treasury Rate or any aspect of such calculations.

(5) Sinking Fund. The Company shall not be required to make sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

(6) Optional Redemption.

Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem the Notes at its option.

(a) Prior to June 15, 2022, the Notes will be redeemable in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, on at least 10 but not more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed on the applicable redemption date, discounted to the date of redemption, on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months), at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.

On and after any redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes called for redemption. Prior to any redemption date, the Company is required to deposit with the Trustee or with a paying agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If the Company is redeeming less than all the Notes , the Trustee under the indenture must select the Notes to be redeemed by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries in similar circumstances.

(7) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it need not transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

(8) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

(9) Defaults and Remedies.

(A) Each of the following constitutes an “Event of Default”:

(1) default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and the continuance of such default for 30 days;

(2) default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable;

A-5

(4) an event of default under any indenture or instrument under which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary has outstanding at least $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of indebtedness for money borrowed, which results in the acceleration of that indebtedness where the acceleration is not rescinded or annulled within 30 days after notice pursuant to the Indenture has been provided; or

(5) an Event of Default under Section 501(f) or Section 501(g) of the Base Indenture in respect of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary has occurred.

(B) The Trustee may withhold notice to the Holders of the Notes of any default, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium or interest, if it considers such withholding of notice in the interest of such Holders.

(C) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in in clause (A)(5) above or Section 5.1(a)(5) of the Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable immediately.

(D) If an Event of Default described in clause (A)(5) above or Section 5.1(a)(5) of the Supplemental Indenture occurs and is continuing with respect to the Company, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders of the Notes.

(E) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture or the Notes at the request or direction of any of the Holders of the Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any costs, liability and expenses, except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, when due.

(F) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to such Notes.

(G) No Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless:

(1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liability and expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(4) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(H) In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall be required, in the exercise of its powers, to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or the Notes or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to security or indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all costs, liability and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

A-6

(I) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes rescind any acceleration or waive any existing or past defaults and its consequences under the Indenture, if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, except that each Holder of the Notes affected by a default must consent to a waiver of:

(1) a default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes; and

(2) a default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be amended or modified without the consent of each Holder of the Notes .

(J) The Company will furnish to the Trustee annual statements as to the fulfillment of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture.

(10) Trustee Dealings with the Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

(11) No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, stockholder or other affiliate of the Company or any Guarantor, as such or in such capacity, shall have any personal liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the subsidiary guarantees, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation, by reason of his, her or its status as such director, officer, employee, stockholder or other affiliate. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting the Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuances of the Notes.

No recourse may, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Company or under the Indenture or any related documents, any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Trustee in its individual capacity, or (ii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee, agent, successor or assign of the Trustee, each in its individual capacity, or (iii) any Holder of equity in the Trustee.

(12) Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

(14) CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

(15) GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE and each Holder by accepting a Security IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE INDENTURE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
