WHEREAS, the Issuer has requested that the Trustee execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture;

AND WHEREAS, all acts and things necessary to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement according to its terms, and to make the Notes, when executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, the valid obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantees the valid obligations of the Guarantors, have been done and performed, and the execution of this Supplemental Indenture and the issue hereunder of the Notes has been duly authorized in all respects;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by the Holders thereof, and for the purpose of setting forth, as provided in the Base Indenture, the forms and terms of the Notes, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors covenants and agrees with the Trustee, as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

SECTION 1.1. Definition of Terms. For all purposes of this Supplemental Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i) “Additional 2028 Notes” means notes issued pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof and having identical terms as the 2028 Notes, other than as expressly permitted by Section 2.2.

(ii) “Additional 2032 Notes” means notes issued pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof and having identical terms as the 2032 Notes, other than as expressly permitted by Section 2.2.

(iii) “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following:

(1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to Parent or one of its Subsidiaries;

(2) the consummation of any transaction (including without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) becomes the ultimate “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of Parent, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

(3) Parent consolidates with, or merges with or into, any Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, Parent, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of Parent or such other Person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Voting Stock of Parent outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving Person immediately after giving effect to such transaction;

(4) the first day on which the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Parent cease to be Continuing Directors; or

(5) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of Parent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (i) Parent becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of another Person and (ii)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such other Person immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of Parent immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no Person (other than a person satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such Person.

(iv) “Change of Control Triggering Event” means the Notes of the applicable series cease to be rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing sixty (60) days prior to the first public announcement of the intention to effect any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending sixty (60) days following consummation of such Change of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as either Rating Agency has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change), provided that in making the relevant decision(s) referred to above to downgrade or withdraw such ratings, as applicable, the relevant Rating Agency announces publicly or confirms in writing to the Issuer that such decisions(s) resulted, in whole or in part, from any event or circumstance comprising part of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, such Change of Control or the first public announcement of the intention to effect such Change of Control (whether or not such Change of Control has occurred at the time of the downgrade or withdrawal in ratings). If a Rating Agency (including any successor to, or replacement Rating Agency for, a Rating Agency) is not providing a rating for the Notes of such series at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes of such series will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade by such Rating Agency during that Trigger Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

(v) “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes of the applicable series to be redeemed (assuming for this purpose that the Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date) 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 of the applicable series.

(vi) “Comparable Treasury Price” means, as determined by the Issuer, 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 such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

(vii) “Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Board of Directors of Parent who:

(1) was a member of such Board of Directors on the date of this Supplemental Indenture; or

(2) was nominated for election or elected to such Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of such Board of Directors at the time of such nomination or election.

(viii) “Independent Investment Banker” means an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Issuer.

(ix) “Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇) and a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Issuer under the circumstances permitting the Issuer to select a replacement agency and in the manner for selecting a replacement agency, in each case as set forth in the definition of “Rating Agency.”

(x) “Moody’s” means ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Corporation, and its successors.

(xi) “Rating Agency” means each of Moody’s and S&P; provided, that if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, the Issuer may appoint a replacement for such Rating Agency.

(xii) “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 (or, in the case of discharge or defeasance prior to a Redemption Date, on the third Business Day preceding the date of the deposit of funds with the Trustee).

(xiii) “Reference Treasury Dealers” means BofA Securities, Inc., ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Securities, LLC, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., or an affiliate thereof which is a Primary Treasury Dealer, and TD Securities (USA) LLC; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

(xiv) “S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and its successors.

(xv) “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, 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 for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (or if no maturity is within three months before or after the maturity date of the Notes of the applicable series, 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, rounded to the nearest month) or (2) 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 semi-annual 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 on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date (or in the case of discharge or defeasance prior to a Redemption Date, on the third Business Day preceding the date of deposit of funds with the Trustee).

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

At any time on or after the 2032 Par Call Date, the Issuer may redeem the 2032 Notes in whole or in part at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2032 Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption of Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including, but not limited to, any equity offering, an incurrence of indebtedness or a change of control) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and any such redemption may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date. If any such condition precedent has not been satisfied, the Issuer will provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business two (2) Business Days prior to the Redemption Date.

Upon receipt of such notice, the notice of redemption shall be rescinded and the redemption of the Notes shall not occur. Upon receipt, the Trustee shall give such notice to each Holder of the Notes in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. Except as set forth in this paragraph (c), the terms of Article III of the Base Indenture shall govern any redemption of the Notes.

SECTION 2.7. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

SECTION 2.8. Appointment of Depositary. DTC will initially be the Depositary with respect to the Notes.

(a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to a series of Notes occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes of such series in accordance with Section 2.6, each Holder of the Notes of such series will have the right to require the Issuer to purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 principal amount and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes of such series pursuant to the offer described below (a “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes of the applicable series repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes of such series on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b) The Issuer shall give a notice to each Holder of the Notes of the applicable series, with a copy to the Trustee, within thirty (30) days following the date upon which any Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at its option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control. The notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer and will describe, among other things, the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and the purchase date. The purchase date will be at least thirty (30) days but no more than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is given, other than as may be required by law (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). If the notice is given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, the notice will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) The Issuer will 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 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(e) The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.9 and such third party purchases all of the Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such offer.

(f) If 90% or more in principal amount of any series of Notes then outstanding has been redeemed or purchased hereunder pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, the Issuer may, at its option, on not less than thirty (30) or more than sixty (60) days’ notice to the Holders of such series of Notes given within thirty (30) days after the relevant Change of Control Payment Date, redeem or purchase (or procure the purchase of) the remaining outstanding Notes of such series at 101% of their principal amount plus interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of such redemption or purchase.

SECTION 2.10. Defeasance. The provisions of Article VIII of the Base Indenture will apply to the Notes. If the Issuer exercises its covenant defeasance option pursuant to Section 8.1 and 8.3 of the Base Indenture, in addition to the provisions of the Base Indenture set forth in Section 8.3 of the Base Indenture, the Issuer also shall be released from its obligations under Section 2.9 of this Supplemental Indenture.

(Reverse of Note)

3.900% Senior Notes due 2028

WRKCO INC.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

(1) Interest. WRKCo Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate of 3.900% per annum, and at the same rate on any overdue principal or overdue installment of interest to the extent lawful. The Issuer will pay interest in Dollars (except as otherwise provided herein) semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on December 1, 2019 (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including May 20, 2019. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

(2) Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on May 15 and November 15 preceding the Interest Payment Date. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, all Global Securities and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided written wire transfer instructions with respect to a bank in the continental United States to the Issuer and the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity date, repurchase date or Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the payment otherwise required to be made on such date will be made on the next Business Day without any additional payment as a result of such delay.

The amount due and payable at the maturity of this Note shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at an office of the Trustee or the Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes.

(3) Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

(4) Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an indenture dated as of December 3, 2018, among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 20, 2019, among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”). To the extent the provisions of this Note are inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms.

(5) Guarantees. The payment of principal and interest on the Notes is unconditionally guaranteed on an unsubordinated basis by the Guarantors as set forth in the Indenture.

(6) Optional Redemption. The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Issuer as provided in, and subject to the terms of, Section 2.6 of the Supplemental Indenture.

(7) Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

(8) Change of Control Triggering Event. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, each Holder of the Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 principal amount and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, as provided in, and subject to the terms of, Section 2.9 of the Supplemental Indenture.

(9) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of fifteen (15) days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

(10) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

(11) Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented, as provided in, and subject to the terms of, Article IX of the Base Indenture.

(12) Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes at the time outstanding (other than an Event of Default related to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of all of the outstanding Notes and any accrued interest on the Notes to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). If an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) of Section 6.1 of the Base Indenture occurs with respect to the Issuer, the principal of and any accrued interest on the Notes then outstanding shall ipso facto become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, as provided in, and subject to the terms of, Article VI of the Base Indenture.

(13) Trustee Dealings with the Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer, the Guarantors or their respective Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, the Guarantors or their respective Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

(14) No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, stockholder, general or limited partner or incorporator, past, present or future, of Parent, the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, as such or in such capacity, shall have any personal liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, any Guarantee or the Indenture by reason of his, her or its status as such director, officer, employee, stockholder, general or limited partner or incorporator.

No recourse may, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors on the Notes or under the Indenture or any related documents, any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Trustee in its individual capacity, or (ii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee, agent, successor or assign of the Trustee, each in its individual capacity, or (iii) any holder of equity in the Trustee.

Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

(15) Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

(16) Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

(17) CUSIP, ISIN Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

(18) Governing Law. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE, THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES. EACH HOLDER OF A NOTE AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE INDENTURE, THE SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
