Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to           , or registered assignees, the principal [sum of ]8 [amount specified in Schedule A hereto]9, together with interest on any outstanding portion of such principal sum at the Interest Rate per annum specified above, from and including the Interest Accrual Date specified above until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for, in the number of installments (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the maturity) set forth above (each, an “Installment”) of an amount for each $1,000.00, or if this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, for each 1,000 units of such Specified Currency, principal amount as set forth on Schedule I hereto, on each Installment Payment Date specified above, commencing with the Installment Payment Date immediately following the Original Issue Date shown above, and at maturity (or on any redemption or optional repayment date); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the provisions of Schedule I, if the Interest Accrual Date occurs between a Record Date, as defined below, and the next succeeding Installment Payment Date, payments of principal and interest will commence on the second Installment Payment Date succeeding the Interest Accrual Date and interest accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to such second Installment Payment Date plus any principal scheduled to be paid on a prior Installment Payment Date will be paid to the registered holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Installment Payment Date. Each Installment shall constitute both a payment of interest and a partial repayment of principal, allocated as set forth in Schedule I hereto. Installments will be applied first to interest due and payable hereon and then to the reduction of the unpaid principal amount hereof.

 

Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Interest Accrual Date, until, but excluding the date the principal hereof has been paid or duly made available for payment.

SENIOR GLOBAL MEDIUM-TERM NOTE, SERIES I

 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Senior Global Medium-Term Notes, Series I (the “Notes”), of the Issuer. The Notes are issuable under a Senior Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2004, between the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation (as successor Trustee to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Indenture) (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Indenture) as supplemented by a First Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of September 4, 2007, a Second Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of January 4, 2008, a Third Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of September 10, 2008, a Fourth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of December 1, 2008, a Fifth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of April 1, 2009, a Sixth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of September 16, 2011, a Seventh Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of November 21, 2011, an Eighth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of May 4, 2012, a Ninth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of March 10, 2014 and a Tenth Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of January 11, 2017 (as the same may be further amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Senior Indenture”), to which Senior Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Issuer has appointed The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.) at its corporate trust office in The City of New York as the paying agent (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any additional or successor Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer) with respect to the Notes. The terms of individual Notes may vary with respect to interest rates, interest rate formulas, issue dates, maturity dates, or otherwise, all as provided in the Senior Indenture. To the extent not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Senior Indenture are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

 

Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, this Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise provided on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or subject to repayment at the option of the holder prior to maturity.

 

If so indicated on the face hereof, this Note may be redeemed in whole or in part at the option of the Issuer on or after the Initial Redemption Date specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth on the face hereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of redemption (less any previously paid Installments). If this Note is subject to “Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction,” the Initial Redemption Percentage indicated on the face hereof will be reduced on each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the face hereof until the redemption price of this Note is 100% of the principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments), together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of redemption. If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration, Repayment or Redemption,” the amount of principal payable upon redemption will be limited to the aggregate principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments) multiplied by the sum of the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount) plus the original issue discount accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of redemption (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described below). Notice of redemption shall be mailed to the registered holders of the Notes designated for redemption at their addresses as the same shall appear on the Note register not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, subject to all the conditions and provisions of the Senior Indenture. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the amount of the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

 

If so indicated on the face of this Note, this Note will be subject to repayment at the option of the holder on the Optional Repayment Date or Dates specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth herein. On any Optional Repayment Date, this Note will be repayable in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 or, if this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, in increments of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof) at the option of the holder hereof at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of repayment (less any previously paid

Installments), provided that if the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration, Repayment or Redemption,” the amount of principal payable upon repayment will be limited to the aggregate principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments) multiplied by the sum of the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount) plus the original issue discount accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of repayment (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described below). For this Note to be repaid at the option of the holder hereof, the Paying Agent must receive at its corporate trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, at least 15 but not more than 30 calendar days prior to the date of repayment, (i) this Note with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” below duly completed or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or a commercial bank or a trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the holder of this Note, the principal amount hereof, the certificate number of this Note or a description of this Note’s tenor and terms, the principal amount hereof to be repaid, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee that this Note, together with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” duly completed, will be received by the Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter; provided, that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note and form duly completed are received by the Paying Agent by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof shall be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the amount of the unpaid portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

 

Interest payments on this Note will include interest accrued to but excluding the Installment Payment Dates or the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or optional repayment date), as the case may be. Unless otherwise provided on the face hereof, interest payments for this Note will be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

In the case where the Installment Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or any redemption or optional repayment date) does not fall on a Business Day, payment of interest, premium, if any, or principal otherwise payable on such date need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Installment Payment Date or on the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date), and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after the Installment Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date) to such next succeeding Business Day.

 

This Note and all the obligations of the Issuer hereunder are direct, unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank without preference or priority among themselves and pari passu with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Issuer, subject to certain statutory exceptions in the event of liquidation upon insolvency.

 

This Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or exchange hereof, is issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and, if denominated in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated above, is issuable only in denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof. If this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, then, unless a higher minimum denomination is required by applicable law, it is issuable only in denominations of the equivalent of U.S. $1,000 (rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency), or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency, as determined by reference to the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of such Specified Currency published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the “Market Exchange Rate”) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of issuance.

 

The Trustee has been appointed registrar for the Notes (the “Registrar,” which term includes any successor registrar appointed by the Issuer), and the Registrar will maintain at its office in The City of New York a register for the registration and transfer of Notes. This Note may be transferred at the aforesaid office of the Registrar by surrendering this Note for cancellation, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar and duly executed by the registered holder hereof in person or by the holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Registrar shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, in exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes having identical terms and provisions and having a like aggregate principal amount in authorized denominations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that

 

8

 

the Registrar will not be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note that has been called for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Notes being redeemed in part, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note if the holder thereof has exercised his right, if any, to require the Issuer to repurchase such Note in whole or in part, except the portion of such Note not required to be repurchased, or (iii) to register the transfer of or exchange Notes to the extent and during the period so provided in the Senior Indenture with respect to the redemption of Notes. Notes are exchangeable at said office for other Notes of other authorized denominations of equal aggregate principal amount having identical terms and provisions. All such exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of charge, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith. All Notes surrendered for exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar and executed by the registered holder in person or by the holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of registration of any Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of Notes shall be such that no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer.

 

In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft or destruction thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and such other documents or proof as may be required in the premises) shall be delivered to the Trustee, the Issuer in its discretion may execute a new Note of like tenor in exchange for this Note, but, if this Note is destroyed, lost or stolen, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer that this Note was destroyed or lost or stolen and, if required, upon receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each of them. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the owner of the Note mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen.

 

The Senior Indenture provides that (a) if an Event of Default (as defined in the Senior Indenture) due to the default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any series of debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture, including the series of Senior Medium-Term Notes of which this Note forms a part, shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each affected series, voting as one class, by notice in writing to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the securityholders, may then declare the principal of all debt securities of all such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately and (b) if an Event of Default due to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture, voting as one class, by notice in writing to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the securityholders, may declare the principal of all such debt securities and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions such declarations may be annulled and past defaults may be waived (except a continuing default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on such debt securities) by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of all affected series then outstanding.

 

If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration, Repayment or Redemption,” then (i) if the principal hereof is declared to be due and payable as described in the preceding paragraph, the amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note shall be limited to the aggregate principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments) multiplied by the sum of the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount) plus the original issue discount accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of declaration (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described in the next paragraph), (ii) for the purpose of any vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior Indenture prior to the acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof shall equal the amount that would be due and payable hereon, calculated as set forth in clause (i) above, if this Note were declared to be due and payable on the date of any such vote and (iii) for the purpose of any vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior Indenture following the acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof shall equal the amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note, calculated as set forth in clause (i) above.

 

The constant yield shall be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the initial period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), and an assumption that the maturity will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Payment Date (the “initial period”) is

 

9

 

shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued. If the initial period is longer than the compounding period, then the period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.

 

If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Tax Redemption and Payment of Additional Amounts,” this Note may be redeemed, as a whole, at the option of the Issuer at any time prior to maturity, upon the giving of a notice of redemption as described below, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments), together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption (except that if this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration, Repayment or Redemption,” the amount of principal so payable will be limited to the aggregate principal amount hereof (less any previously paid Installments) multiplied by the sum of the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount) plus the original issue discount accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of redemption (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount amortized being calculated using a constant yield method (as described above), if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws (including a holding, judgment or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction), or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, of the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment occurs, becomes effective or, in the case of a change in official position, is announced on or after the Initial Offering Date hereof, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts, as defined below, with respect to this Note as described below. Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (i) a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to so redeem have occurred, and (ii) an opinion of independent legal counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to such effect based on such statement of facts; provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of this Note were then due.

 

Notice of redemption will be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, which date and the applicable redemption price will be specified in the notice.

 

If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Tax Redemption and Payment of Additional Amounts,” the Issuer will, subject to certain exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) to the holder of this Note with respect to any interest in this Note held by a beneficial owner who is a U.S. Alien as may be necessary in order that every net payment of the principal of and interest on this Note and any other amounts payable on this Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon or as a result of such payment by the United States, or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States, will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be then due and payable. The Issuer will not, however, make any payment of Additional Amounts to the holder of this Note with respect to any interest in this Note held by any beneficial owner who is a U.S. Alien for or on account of:

 

·any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been so imposed but for

·any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the beneficial owner of an interest in this Note, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States as a precondition to relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

In addition, the Issuer will not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts with respect to any interest in this Note presented for payment:

Nor will the Issuer pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment with respect to any interest in this Note to a U.S. Alien who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of the payment to the extent the payment would be required by the laws of the United States (or any political subdivision of the United States) to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary or a member of the

partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had the beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner held its interest in this Note directly.

 

The Senior Indenture permits the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of all series issued under the Senior Indenture then outstanding and affected (voting as one class), to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner the rights of the holders of each series so affected; provided that the Issuer and the Trustee may not, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected thereby, (i) extend the final maturity of any such debt security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof, or change the currency of payment thereof, or reduce the amount of any original issue discount security payable upon acceleration or provable in bankruptcy, or modify or amend the provisions for conversion of any currency into any other currency, or modify or amend the provisions for conversion or exchange of the debt security for securities of the Issuer or other entities or for other property or the cash value of the property (other than as provided in the antidilution provisions or other similar adjustment provisions of the debt securities or otherwise in accordance with the terms thereof), or alter certain provisions of the Senior Indenture relating to debt securities not denominated in U.S. dollars or impair or affect the rights of any holder of any series to institute suit for the payment thereof or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of debt securities of any series the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture.

 

Except as set forth below, if the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such Specified Currency is not available to the Issuer for making payments hereon due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions within the international banking community, then the Issuer will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate on the date of such payment or, if the Market Exchange Rate is not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable date; provided, however, that if the euro has been substituted for such Specified Currency, the Issuer may at its option (or shall, if so required by applicable law) without the consent of the holder of this Note effect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note denominated in such Specified Currency in euro in lieu of such Specified Currency in conformity with legally applicable measures taken pursuant to, or by virtue of, the Treaty establishing the European Community, as amended. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars or euro where the required payment is in an unavailable Specified Currency will not constitute an Event of Default. If such Market Exchange Rate is not then available to the Issuer or is not published for a particular Specified Currency, the Market Exchange Rate will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the date of such payment from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (the “Exchange Dealers”) for the purchase by the quoting Exchange Dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on the payment date, in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to those holders or beneficial owners of Notes and at which the applicable Exchange Dealer commits to execute a contract. One of the Exchange Dealers providing quotations may be the Exchange Rate Agent unless the Exchange Rate Agent is an affiliate of the Issuer. If those bid quotations are not available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall determine the market exchange rate at its sole discretion.

 

The “Exchange Rate Agent” shall be Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof.

 

All determinations referred to above made by, or on behalf of, the Issuer or by, or on behalf of, the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at such entity’s sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on holders of Notes.

 

So long as this Note shall be outstanding, the Issuer will cause to be maintained an office or agency for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note as herein provided in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and an office or agency in said Borough of Manhattan for the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. The Issuer may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal, premium and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable laws and regulations) as the Issuer may decide. So long as there shall be such an agency, the Issuer shall keep the Trustee advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any are so designated. If any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings comes into

 

12

 

force, the Issuer will, to the extent possible as a matter of law, maintain a Paying Agent in a Member State of the European Union that will not be obligated to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to any such Directive or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive.

 

With respect to moneys paid by the Issuer and held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent for payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal, interest or premium shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity or upon call for redemption or otherwise), (i) the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall notify the holders of such Notes that such moneys shall be repaid to the Issuer and any person claiming such moneys shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof and (ii) such moneys shall be so repaid to the Issuer. Upon such repayment all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease, without, however, limiting in any way any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on this Note as the same shall become due.

 

No provision of this Note or of the Senior Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the registered holder of this Note.

 

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on this Note, for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

 

This Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

As used herein, the term “U.S. Alien” means any person who is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) a nonresident alien individual, (ii) a foreign corporation, (iii) a nonresident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust or (iv) a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a nonresident alien individual, a foreign corporation or a nonresident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust.
