WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 902 of the Base Indenture, the Consenting Holders, by delivery of their Consents, have permitted and approved any and all conforming changes, including conforming amendments, to the Notes and any related documents and any documents appended thereto that may be required by, or as a result of, this Second Supplemental Indenture; and
WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Second Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding agreement of the parties, in accordance with its terms, and a valid amendment of, and supplement to, the Indenture have been done, and the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture have been duly authorized in all respects and, pursuant to Section 902 of the Base Indenture, the Company and the Trustee are authorized to execute and deliver this Second Supplemental Indenture.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders as follows:
| 1. | Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture, unless otherwise indicated. To the extent terms are defined in both this Second Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture, the applicable definition in this Second Supplemental Indenture shall control. The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereby” and other words of similar import used in this Second Supplemental Indenture refer to this Second Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular section hereof. |

| 2. | Relationship with Indenture. The terms and provisions contained in this Second Supplemental Indenture will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of the Indenture, and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. The Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.

If the Trustee receives written notice from the Company that the Consent Payment has not been made in accordance with the terms of the Offering Memorandum, this Second Supplemental Indenture shall terminate immediately without any amendments contained in Section 4 hereof becoming or remaining operative, as applicable, and without the need for further action hereunder or thereunder. |
