With respect to the Notes, this Supplemental Indenture constitutes an integral part of the Indenture.

For all purposes of this Supplemental Indenture, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Original Indenture.

Unless otherwise specified or unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references in this Supplemental Indenture to Articles and Sections refer to the corresponding Articles and Sections of this Supplemental Indenture and (ii) the terms “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and any other word of similar import refer to this Supplemental Indenture.

There is hereby established a new series of Securities designated as the Company’s “2.700% Senior Notes due 2031” to be issued under the Indenture (such Securities being referred to herein as the “Notes”). The Notes shall be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by the Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate or as may be required or appropriate to comply with any laws or with any rules made pursuant thereto or with the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or traded, or to conform to general usage, or as may, consistently with the Indenture, be determined by the officers executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution thereof. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Notes shall be executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the provisions of, and shall in all respects be subject to, the terms, conditions and covenants of the Original Indenture as supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture (including the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto (the terms of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Supplemental Indenture for all intents and purposes)).

The aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be authenticated and delivered pursuant hereto is unlimited. The Trustee shall initially authenticate and deliver Notes for original issue in an initial aggregate principal amount of up to $600,000,000 upon delivery to the Trustee of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued hereunder may be increased at any time hereafter and the series of Securities encompassing the Notes may be reopened for issuances of Additional Notes, upon Company Order, without the consent of any Holder and without any further supplement or amendment to the Original Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture. The Notes issued on the date hereof and any such Additional Notes that may be issued hereafter shall be part of the same series of Securities for all purposes under the Indenture.

The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be July 15, 2031. The Notes may be issued on any Business Day on or after June 28, 2021.

The rate or rates at which the Notes shall bear interest, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue, the Interest Payment Dates on which any such interest shall be payable and the Regular Record Date for any interest payable on any Interest Payment Date, in each case, shall be as set forth in the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto.

As long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Company shall maintain an office or agency in the United States of America where Notes may be presented for payment. Such office or agency shall initially be the office or agency of the Trustee in Houston, Texas.

At its option, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, in principal amounts of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, at any time or from time to time, at the applicable Redemption Price determined as set forth in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Notes and in accordance with Article Eleven of the Original Indenture. No Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

Article Thirteen of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture) shall apply to the Notes. Furthermore, each of the covenants set forth in Article Four of this Supplemental Indenture, and the Events of Default specified in clauses (c) and (d) of Section 5.1 of the Original Indenture (as amended by this Supplemental Indenture) shall, in each case, constitute “Additional Defeasible Provisions” (as such term is used in the Original Indenture).

The Notes shall initially be issuable in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities. Such Global Securities (i) shall be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, which shall act as Depositary with respect to the Notes, (ii) shall bear the legends applicable to Global Securities set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.4 of the Original Indenture, (iii) may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form upon the terms and subject to the conditions provided in Section 3.5 of the Original Indenture and in this Supplemental Indenture and (iv) shall otherwise be subject to the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

Article Fourteen of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture, including without limitation Section 3.05 hereof) shall apply to the Notes. For the purposes of the Indenture and the Notes (including without limitation the provisions of the Original Indenture to the extent applicable thereto), SUI hereby agrees to be bound by a Securities Guarantee with respect to the Notes and that SUI shall be a Guarantor of the Notes in accordance with Article Fourteen of the Indenture; provided, however, that such Securities Guarantee granted hereby (i) shall be subject to release as set forth in Article Fourteen of the Indenture and (ii) shall not apply to any obligations under any series of Securities other than the Notes. Such Securities Guarantee of the Notes by SUI will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note any notation of such Securities Guarantee.

With respect to the Notes, Article Ten of the Original Indenture is hereby amended as set forth below in this Article Four; provided, however, that each such amendment shall apply only to the Notes and not to any other series of Securities issued under the Indenture.

Subject to the limitations set forth in the preamble to Article Four of this Supplemental Indenture, Article Ten of the Original Indenture is hereby further amended by adding the following Section 10.6 thereto:

Section 10.6    Limitations on Debt.

(a)Aggregate Debt Test. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds of the Debt on a pro forma basis, the Company’s Total Debt would be greater than 60% of the sum (without duplication) of:

(i)the Company’s Total Assets as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter covered in SUI’s annual or quarterly report most recently furnished or made available to Holders of the Notes or filed with the SEC, as the case may, be prior to the incurrence of such Debt; and

(ii)the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such Debt.

(b)Debt Service Test. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt if the ratio of the Company’s Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Company’s Annual Debt Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such Debt is to be incurred would be less than 1.5 to 1.0, calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumptions that:

(i)such Debt and any other Debt (including, without limitation, Acquired Debt) incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt since the first day of such period, had occurred as of the first day of such four quarter period;

(ii)the repayment or retirement of any other Debt by the Company or its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four quarter period had been repaid or retired as of the first day of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility, line of credit or similar facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period);

(iii)in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and

(iv)in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets with a Fair Market Value in excess of $1.0 million since the first day of such four quarter period, including, without limitation, by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition and any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.

If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the calculation described in this Section 10.6 or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant four-quarter period bears interest at a floating rate (to the extent such Debt has been hedged to bear interest at a fixed rate, only the portion of such Debt, if any, that has not been so hedged), then, for purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service Charge, the interest rate on such Debt shall be computed on a pro forma basis as if the average interest rate that would have been in effect during the entire such period had been the applicable rate for the entire such period.

(c)Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Company will not permit at any time its Total Unencumbered Assets to be less than 150% of its Total Unsecured Debt.

(d)Secured Debt Test. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Secured Debt and the application of the proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, Total Secured Debt of the Company is greater than 40% of the sum (without duplication) of:

(i)Total Assets of the Company as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter covered in SUI’s annual or quarterly report most recently furnished or made available to Holders of the Notes or filed with the SEC, as the case may, be prior to the incurrence of such Secured Debt; and

For purposes of the covenants set forth in this Section 10.6, Debt shall be deemed to be “incurred” by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, whenever the Company or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof.

(c)The Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether such reports have been filed or are publicly available via EDGAR or on any website. Delivery of such

If required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, SUI or the Company shall cause such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit B to the First Supplemental Indenture, pursuant to which such Subsidiary shall fully and unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (but only with respect to the Notes, and not with respect to any other series of Securities) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Indenture, including without limitation in Article 14 of this Indenture.

Dated: ______________, ____

This is one of the Securities of the series designated 2.700% Senior Notes due 2031 referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

By:                    

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company, issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of June 28, 2021, between the Company and UMB Bank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of June 28, 2021 by and among the Company, Sun Communities, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and the Trustee (such Indenture, as so amended and supplemented being referred to herein as the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof.

This Security is the general, unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of the Company and is guaranteed pursuant to a guarantee by each Person named as a Guarantor in the Indenture. The Securities Guarantee of each such Guarantor is the general, unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of such Guarantor.

This Security is redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time and from time to time prior to maturity. The Redemption Price for such redemption at any time on or after April 15, 2031 (the “Par Call Date”) will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security or portion hereof to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Redemption Date. The Redemption Price for such redemption at any time prior to the Par Call Date will be equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of this Security or portion hereof to be redeemed, and (b) as determined by the Quotation Agent (as defined below), the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest in respect of this Security or portion hereof to be redeemed that would be due if the Securities of this series matured on the Par Call Date (not including any portion of those payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) 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 below) plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to but not including the Redemption Date.

For purposes of determining any Redemption Price for the Securities of this series, the following definitions shall apply:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the U.S. Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities of this series to be redeemed, calculated as if the maturity date of such Securities were the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”), 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 Life of such Securities.

“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 such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Quotations.

“Primary Treasury Dealer” means a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America.

“Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) Citigroup Global Markets Inc., (2) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, (3) BofA Securities, Inc., and (4) any one other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company; provided, however, that if any of the Reference Treasury Dealers referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) above ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, 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 Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the third Business Day preceding the notice of such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date:

(a)the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Par Call Date, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or

(b)if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Company on the third Business Day preceding the notice of the Redemption Date. Any weekly average yields calculated by interpolation or extrapolation will be rounded to the nearest 1/100th of 1%, with any figure of 1/200th of 1% or above being rounded upward. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the calculation of the Treasury Rate.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the applicable Redemption Price for Securities of this series, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on this Security or the portions hereof called for redemption.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (1) the entire indebtedness of this Security or (2) certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and each Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and each Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected (with each series voting as a separate class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and each Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, regardless of whether notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

No Holder of this Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder, (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request, (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding and (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place(s) and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

[If a Global Security, insert—This Global Security or portion hereof may not be exchanged for Definitive Securities of this series except in the limited circumstances provided in the Indenture. The holders of beneficial interests in this Global Security will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Securities except as described in the Indenture and will not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture.]

[If a Definitive Security, insert—As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in The City of New York, or, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto and to the right of the Company (limited as provided in the Indenture) to rescind the designation of any such transfer agent, at the offices of _________________ in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.]

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S. $2,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, regardless of whether this Security be overdue, and none of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of or contained in the Indenture or of or contained in any Security, or the Securities Guarantee endorsed thereon, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or in any Security or in the Securities Guarantee, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, shareholder, member, officer, manager or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any Guarantor or of any successor Person, either directly or through the Company or any Guarantor or any successor Person, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment, penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released by the acceptance hereof and as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the execution of the Indenture and the issuance of the Securities.

This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
