Section 4.02 Acceleration. Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with respect to the Notes as follows:

“Section 6.02 Acceleration.

(a) If an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.01(7) or (8) above with respect to the Issuer (but including an event of default referred to in those Sections 6.01(7) or (8) with respect to a Significant Subsidiary, or group of Subsidiaries that in the aggregate would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, of the Issuer), has occurred and is continuing, either the Trustee, by notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be immediately due and payable. In the case of an Event of Default referred to in Sections 6.01(7) or (8) above with respect to the Issuer (and not solely with respect to a Significant Subsidiary, or group of Subsidiaries that in the aggregate would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, of the Issuer), the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes will automatically become immediately due and payable.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, for the first 365 days immediately following an Event of Default relating to (i) the Issuer’s failure to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 314(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act any documents or reports that it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or (ii) the Issuer’s failure to comply with its reporting obligations to the Trustee set forth under Section 4.02 of the Base Indenture, the sole remedy for any such Event of Default shall be the accrual of additional interest on the Notes at a rate per year equal to (i) 0.25% of the outstanding principal amount of the notes for the first 180 days following the occurrence of such Event of Default and (ii) 0.50% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes for the next 180 days after the first 180 days following the occurrence of such Event of Default, in each case, payable quarterly at the same time and in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes. This additional interest will accrue on all outstanding Notes from, and including the date on which such Event of Default first occurs to, and including, the 365th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived). In addition to the accrual of such additional interest, on and after the 360th day immediately following an event of default relating to such reporting obligations, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare the principal amount of the Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest through the date of such declaration, to be immediately due and payable.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of such Series by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders of such Notes, rescind any declaration or acceleration and its consequences (other than with respect to an Event of Default specified in clauses (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 above), if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default with respect to such Notes (except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.”

7

Section 4.03 Waiver of Past Defaults. Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with respect to the Notes as follows:

“Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults.

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of such Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default with respect to such Notes and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default with respect to such Notes in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Notes or a Default or Event of Default in respect of any provision of this Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of each outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver, such Default with respect to such Notes shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default with respect to such Notes arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default with respect to such Notes or impair any right with respect to such Notes consequent thereon.”

ARTICLE V

TRUSTEE

Section 5.01 Notice of Defaults. Section 7.05 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety with respect to the Notes as follows:

“Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes of a Series and if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default, the Trustee will mail to Holders of such Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 30 days after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has knowledge of the Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Note of a Series, the Trustee may withhold the notice if such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived or if and so long as a committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders.”

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000.

Place of Payment. Payments of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars at the office of the Paying Agent. However, the Issuer may make any payments in respect of the Notes by check or wire payable in U.S. Dollars; provided, however, that a Holder holding Notes with an aggregate principal amount equal to or greater than $1,000,000 will be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the election of such Holder. The Issuer may mail an interest check to the Holder’s last address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as a Note is registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, all payments thereon shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

Optional Redemption. The Notes of this series are subject to redemption at the Issuer’s option, at any time and from time to time, on or after October 15, 2022, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to $25 per note plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. If the date of redemption is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such interest record date, and no additional interest is payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Issuer. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the date of redemption, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions thereof called for redemption.

Except as set forth above, the Notes will not be redeemable by the Issuer prior to maturity and will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

Amendment, Modification and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, on behalf of the

A-5

Holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

Covenants. The Indenture contains customary covenants that require the Issuer to pay the principal, interest and premium on the Notes when due, provide the Trustee with a copy of the reports that the Issuer must file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and maintain its corporate existence and the corporate, partnership or limited liability company or other existence of its Significant Subsidiaries.
