In addition, the 2022 Notes are subject to redemption at any time or from time to time on or after August 15, 2022, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

Section 3.02 Notices to Trustee.

If the Company elects to redeem the Notes of either series pursuant to this Article III, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the redemption date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed.

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section upon not later than the earlier of 45 days before the redemption date or the date on which notice is given to the Holders (unless the Trustee consents to a shorter period). Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such redemption will comply with the conditions herein and in the Indenture.

Section 3.03 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.

If fewer than all the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall, subject to applicable law, select the Notes of such series to be redeemed as follows: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or (2) on a pro rata basis, if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange.

The Trustee shall make the selection of Notes to be redeemed from outstanding Notes of such series not previously called for redemption. Provisions of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture that apply to the Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of the Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of the Notes or portions of the Notes to be redeemed.

Section 3.04 Notice of Redemption.

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date of the Notes, the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

(a) the redemption date;

(b) the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to the redemption date;

(c) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

(d) that the Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(e) if fewer than all the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the certificate numbers and principal amounts of the particular Notes to be redeemed;

(f) if the Notes are to be redeemed in part, upon surrender of such Notes, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Note for the principal amount remaining unredeemed;

(g) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, interest on the Notes (or portion thereof) called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(h) the CUSIP number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and

(i) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. In such event, the Company shall provide the Trustee with the information required by this Section.

Section 3.05 Effect of Notice of Redemption.

Once notice of redemption is mailed, the Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date; provided, however, that installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on the 2020 Interest Payment Dates or the 2022 Interest Payment Dates, as the case may be, falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on such 2020 Interest Payment Date or 2022 Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant 2020 Regular Record Date or 2022 Regular Record Date, as the case may be, according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

Section 3.06 Deposit of Redemption Price.

Prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the redemption date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date.

Section 3.07 Notes Redeemed in Part.

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company and the Guarantors shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder (at the Company’s expense) a new Note of such series equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Notes surrendered.

Section 4.01 Change of Control.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless all Notes have been called for redemption pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to an integral multiple of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (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 proposed Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the proposed Change of Control, the Company shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and specifying:

(i) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.01 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment;

(iii) the CUSIP numbers for the Notes;

(iv) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

(v) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

(vi) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;

(vii) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election referred to in clause (vi) if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased;

(viii) that Holders whose Notes of any series are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes of such series equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion will be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; and

(ix) if the notice is mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

(c) The Company shall cause the Change of Control Offer to remain open for at least 20 Business Days or such longer period as is required by applicable law. The Company shall 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 provisions of this Section 4.01, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.01 by virtue of such conflict.

(d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

(e) The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered 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 of the same series equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(f) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.01 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.01, if an Event of Default exists under the Indenture (which is unrelated to the repurchase provisions of this Section 4.01), including Events of Default arising with respect to other series of Securities, the Company shall not be required to repurchase the Notes.

The covenants set forth in this Article V shall be applicable to the Company in addition to the covenants in Article III of the Indenture, which shall in all respects be applicable in respect of the Notes.

Section 5.01 Limitation on Secured Indebtedness.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume, or guarantee any Indebtedness secured by a Lien on any Principal Property or on any Capital Stock or Indebtedness of any Subsidiary of the Company owning any Principal Property, owned or acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, without effectively providing that the outstanding Notes and the Securities Guarantees (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary then existing or thereafter

created which is not subordinate to the Notes or the Securities Guarantees) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured Indebtedness so long as such secured Indebtedness shall be so secured. The foregoing restrictions do not apply to:

(a) Permitted Encumbrances;

(b) Liens on any asset or property at the date of the indenture, provided that,

(i) such Liens shall not apply to any other property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (other than the proceeds or products of the property or asset originally subject to such Liens), and

(ii) such Liens shall secure only those obligations which it secures on the date of the Indenture and extensions, renewals and replacements thereof that do not increase the outstanding principal amount thereof;

(i) such Liens were in existence prior to such corporation or other Person becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or such merger or consolidation and shall not apply to any other property or asset of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (other than the proceeds or products of the property or asset originally subject to such Liens), and

(ii) such Liens shall secure only those obligations which it secures on the date that such corporation or other Person becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the date of such merger or consolidation, and

(d) Liens securing Indebtedness of

(i) a Subsidiary of the Company to the Company or a Guarantor,

Obligations with respect thereto, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company of construction, alteration or improvement to such acquired property or asset;

(f) Liens securing industrial revenue bonds, pollution control bonds or other similar tax-exempt bonds;

(g) any other Liens incidental to construction or maintenance of real property of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company which were not incurred in connection with borrowing money or obtaining advances or credits or the acquisition of property or assets and in the aggregate do not materially impair the use of any property or assets or which are being contested in good faith by the Company or such Subsidiary; or

(h) any extension, renewal or replacement (including successive extensions, renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any of the Liens enumerated in clauses (a) through (g) above; provided, however, that

(i) such extension, renewal or replacement Liens are limited to all or part of the same property or asset that secured the Liens extended, renewed, or replaced (plus improvements on such property or asset) and

(ii) the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by such Liens at such time is not increased.

Section 5.02 Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

The Company shall not directly or indirectly, and shall not permit any Subsidiary directly or indirectly to, engage in the sale or transfer of any Principal Property to a Person and the taking back by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, of a lease of such Principal Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(a) such transaction was entered into prior to date of the Indenture;

(b) such transaction was for the sale and leasing back to the Company by any one of its Subsidiaries;

The terms of each Securities Guarantee are more fully set forth in Article X of the Indenture and each Guarantor agrees to be bound by such terms.

Section 6.03 Future Guarantors. The Company shall cause any Subsidiary of the Company that guarantees, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness of the Company (including any Indebtedness under any Credit Agreement) to at the same time, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplement to the Indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Indenture. Thereafter, such

Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of the Indenture until such Securities Guarantee is released in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A.,

as Trustee

By: ___________________________

Authorized Officer

1. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its 2.000% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) limited in aggregate principal amount to $250,000,000 issued and to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 15, 2009, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), and the fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of November 20, 2012 (the “Base Indenture,” as so supplemented and as it may be further supplemented or amended from time to time, is herein referred to as the “Indenture”), between the Company, the guarantors named therein and the Trustee. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes, including the principal thereof and interest thereon (including post-default interest), will constitute unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and will rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's current and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

2. The Notes are subject to redemption at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and

(ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of the Notes to be redeemed, 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 plus 20 basis points,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

“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 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 the Notes to be redeemed.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all of these quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers), and their respective successors, or if at any time any of the above is not a primary U.S. Government securities dealer, another nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Company that is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer and (ii) two other primary U.S. Government securities dealers selected by us.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related redemption date for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such redemption date is not an interest payment date with respect to such Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, for any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity, computed as the second business day immediately preceding that redemption date, of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that redemption date.
