WHEREAS, Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Original Indenture provide that the Issuer may enter into one or more indentures supplemental thereto to establish the form and terms of a series of Securities issued pursuant to the Original Indenture;

WHEREAS, the Issuer, pursuant to the foregoing authority, proposes in and by this First Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Original Indenture, the “Indenture”) to supplement the Original Indenture insofar as it will apply only to the series of securities to be known as the Issuer’s 3.600% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) issued hereunder (and not to any other series);

(2) The Notes, including the form of the certificate of authentication, shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(3) The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $650,000,000 upon an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of the Notes. The Issuer may from time to time issue additional Notes in accordance with Sections 3.01 and 9.01 of the Original Indenture. Any additional Notes subsequently issued shall not be limited by the aggregate principal amount of this Supplemental Indenture. The Notes issued originally hereunder, together with any additional Notes subsequently issued, shall be treated as a single series for purposes of the Indenture.

(4) The Notes shall be issued in registered form without coupons.

(5) The Notes shall not have a sinking fund.

(6) The principal of the Notes shall be due on May 15, 2024.

(7) The outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 3.600% per annum from May 16, 2017 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on November 15, 2017, to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined in Section 1.02) for such interest and at the Stated Maturity of the Notes, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Any such interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person or Persons in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Issuer pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Original Indenture, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Notes not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by any such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Original Indenture.

(8) The Notes shall be issued in denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(9) If the Notes are redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, prior to March 15, 2024, the Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed will be equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of the present value of (A) the payment on March 15, 2024 of principal of the Notes to be redeemed and (B) the payment of the remaining scheduled payments through March 15, 2024 of interest on the Notes to be redeemed (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) and subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) discounted from their scheduled date of payment to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points plus, in each of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

If the Notes are redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after March 15, 2024, the Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed will equal 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

SECTION 1.05. Redemption.

(1) The Issuer shall send notice of any redemption pursuant to Section 1.01(9) not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Redemption Price with respect to the foregoing redemption no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Redemption Date.

(2) Section 11.03 (Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed) of the Original Indenture is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

If less than all the 3.600% Senior Notes due 2024 are to be redeemed, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Notes of a denomination larger than $2,000; provided, however, that Notes registered in the name of the Issuer shall be excluded from any such selection for redemption until all Notes being redeemed and that are not so registered shall have been previously selected for redemption.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Notes redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Notes which has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 1.06. Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(1) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Sections 1.01(9) and 1.05 of this Supplemental Indenture or Article ELEVEN of the Original Indenture, the Issuer will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to but excluding the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 45 days from the date such notice is sent. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to repurchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

(2) The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

(3) On the Change of Control Triggering Event payment date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(a) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Issuer’s offer;

(b) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(c) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchase by the Issuer.

(4) The Paying Agent will promptly pay, from funds deposited by the Issuer for such purpose, to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and send (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered.

(5) The Issuer will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

SECTION 1.07. Additional Covenants. The following shall be additional covenants to the covenants set forth in the Original Indenture for the benefit of the Notes only and shall be effective only so long as the Notes are Outstanding:

(1) Limitation on Liens. Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur or suffer to exist any Lien, other than a Permitted Lien, securing Indebtedness upon any Capital Stock of any Significant Subsidiary of Parent that is owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case whether owned at the date of the original issuance of the Notes or thereafter acquired, or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom unless it has made or will make effective provision whereby the Outstanding Notes will be secured by such Lien equally and ratably with (or prior to) all other Indebtedness of Parent or any Subsidiary secured by such Lien. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence shall provide by its terms that such Lien will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon release and discharge of the Lien.

“Permitted Lien” means a Lien on the Capital Stock of a Significant Subsidiary to secure Indebtedness incurred to finance the purchase price of such Capital Stock; provided that any such Lien may not extend to any other property of Parent or any other Subsidiary of Parent; and provided further that such Indebtedness matures within 180 days from the date such Indebtedness was incurred.

(2) Limitation on Dispositions of Significant Subsidiaries. Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, and will not permit any Significant Subsidiary to issue, any Capital Stock of any Significant Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, (a) Parent and its Subsidiaries may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, and any Significant Subsidiary may issue, any such Capital Stock to any Subsidiary of Parent, (b) any Subsidiary of Parent may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, and any Significant Subsidiary may issue, any such securities to Parent or another Subsidiary of Parent, (c) Parent and its Subsidiaries may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, and any Significant Subsidiary may issue, any such Capital Stock if the consideration received is at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of Parent acting in good faith) of such Capital Stock, and (d) Parent and its Subsidiaries may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, and any Significant Subsidiary may issue, any such securities if required by law or any regulation or order of any governmental or regulatory authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may merge or consolidate any of its Significant Subsidiaries into or with another one of its Significant Subsidiaries and may otherwise sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of its business pursuant to Article EIGHT of the Original Indenture.

SECTION 1.08. Early Redemption for Tax Reasons.

(1) The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer in whole, but not in part, at any time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice delivered electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to the registered address of each Holder, or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary if:

(a) on the occasion of the next payment due under the Notes, the Issuer, or any Guarantor, has or is reasonably likely to become obliged to pay Additional Amounts (as defined in Section 1.09) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of a Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined in Section 1.09), or any change in the official application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective on or after the date of issuance of the Notes; and

(b) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Issuer, or the relevant Guarantor, taking reasonable measures available to it;

provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer, or a Guarantor, would be obliged to pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Notes then due.

(2) Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer 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 so to redeem have occurred. Notes redeemed pursuant to this Section 1.08 will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption and all Additional Amounts due on the date of redemption.

SECTION 1.09. Additional Amounts. With respect to any payments made by or on the behalf of the Issuer or a Guarantor in respect of the Notes or any Guarantee of the Notes, as applicable, the Issuer or such Guarantor will make all payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on (whether on scheduled payment dates or upon acceleration) and the Redemption Price, if any, payable in respect of any Note without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, import, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto (“Taxes”) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is incorporated or organized, engaged in business for tax purposes or otherwise resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein and any jurisdiction through which any payment is made on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor (including the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) (each, a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), upon or as a result of such payments, unless required by law or by the official interpretation or administration thereof.

To the extent that any such Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Issuer or such Guarantor will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) in order that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts), after withholding for or on account of such Taxes imposed upon or as a result of such payment, will not be less than the amount that would have been received had such taxes not been imposed or levied; except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to a payment made to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note:

(1) to the extent that such Taxes are imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States, with respect to the forgoing or any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code (“FATCA”) and/or the UK’s International Tax Compliance Regulations 2015; or

(2) to the extent that such Taxes would not have been so imposed, levied or assessed but for the existence of some connection between such Holder or beneficial owner of such Note and the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes other than the mere holding or enforcement of such Note or receipt of payments thereunder; or

(3) to the extent that such Taxes would not have been so imposed, levied or assessed but for the failure of the Holders or beneficial owners of such Note to comply with a reasonable written request by the Issuer (or its agent) to make a valid declaration of non-residence or any other claim or filing for exemption to which it is entitled (but only to the extent it is legally entitled to do so); or

(6) any combination of the above.

As used herein and for purposes of the Indenture and the Notes, any reference to the principal of and interest on the Notes and the Redemption Price, if any, shall be deemed to include a reference to any related Additional Amounts payable in respect of such amounts. The

(4) a default under any Indebtedness by the Issuer, any Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries that results in acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness, or failure to pay any such Indebtedness at maturity, in an aggregate amount greater than $50.0 million or its foreign currency equivalent at the time, provided that the cure of such default shall remedy such Event of Default under this Section 1. 10(4); or

(5) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of Parent, the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or (B) a decree or order adjudging Parent, the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of Parent, the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary under any applicable Bankruptcy Law, or appointing a Custodian of Parent, the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary or of any substantial part of their property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(7) any Guarantee with respect to the Notes shall for any reason cease to be, or shall for any reason be asserted in writing by any Guarantor not to be, in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as contemplated by the Indenture and any such Guarantee.

SECTION 1.11. Notice of Defaults.

Section 6.02 (Notice of Defaults) of the Original Indenture is hereby amended and restated in its entirety for the benefit of the Notes only as follows:

For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

SECTION 1.12. Legal Defeasance and Discharge and Covenant Defeasance.

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof (herein called the “Notes”).

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer in whole, but not in part, at any time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice delivered electronically or by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to the registered address of each Holder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, if:

(i) on the occasion of the next payment due under the Notes, the Issuer, or any Guarantor, has or will become obliged to pay Additional Amounts (as defined below) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of the Taxing Jurisdiction (defined below), or any change in the official application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment is announced and becomes effective on or after the date of issuance of the Notes; and

(ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Issuer, or the relevant Guarantor, taking reasonable measures available to it;

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Sections 1.01 and 1.05 of the First Supplemental Indenture or Article ELEVEN of the Original Indenture, each Holder will have the right to require that the Issuer repurchase all or any part (in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to but excluding the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Issuer will send a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 45 days from the date such notice is sent. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to repurchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.

The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

On the Change of Control Triggering Event payment date, the Issuer will, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Issuer’s offer;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchase by the Issuer.

The Paying Agent will promptly pay, from funds deposited by the Issuer for such purpose, to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and send (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered.

The Issuer will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The definitions of certain terms used in the paragraphs above are listed below.

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) the consummation of any transaction (including without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any person (including any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act)) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of Capital Stock representing more than 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of Parent;

“Rating Agency” means:

(i) each of Moody’s and S&P; and

(ii) if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3- 1 (c) (2) (vi) (F) under the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both, as the case may be.

“Ratings Decline” means at any time during the period commencing on the earlier of, (i) the occurrence of a Change of Control or (ii) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or the intention by Parent to effect a Change of Control, and ending 60 days thereafter (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) that (a) the rating of the Notes shall be reduced by both Rating Agencies and (b) the Notes shall be rated below Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of S&P Global Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer 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 so to redeem have occurred. Notes redeemed pursuant to this provision will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption and all Additional Amounts due on the date of redemption.

With respect to any payments made by or on the behalf of the Issuer or a Guarantor in respect of the Notes or any Guarantee of the Notes, as applicable, the Issuer or such Guarantor will make all payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on (whether on scheduled payment dates or upon acceleration) and the Redemption Price, if any, payable in respect of any Note without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, import, assessment or other governmental charge (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto (“Taxes”) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of any jurisdiction in which the Issuer or such Guarantor is incorporated or organized, engaged in business for tax purposes or otherwise resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein and any jurisdiction through which any payment is made on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor (including the jurisdiction of any Paying Agent) (each, a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), upon or as a result of such payments, unless required by law or by the official interpretation or administration thereof.

(ii) to the extent that such Taxes would not have been so imposed, levied or assessed but for the existence of some connection between such Holder or beneficial owner of such Note and the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes other than the mere holding or enforcement of such Note or receipt of payments thereunder; or

(iii) to the extent that such Taxes would not have been so imposed, levied or assessed but for the failure of the Holders or beneficial owners of such Note to comply with a reasonable written request by the Issuer (or its agent) to make a valid declaration of non-residence or any other claim or filing for exemption to which it is entitled (but only to the extent it is legally entitled to do so); or

(v) in the case of a payment made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any Guarantor organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, with respect to any United States withholding taxes, so long as such withholding taxes are summarized in the prospectus supplement, dated May 11, 2017, in the discussion under the caption “Certain Material Income Tax Consequences—United States Taxation” or the Issuer or such Guarantor (pursuant to Section 1.06 of the Original Indenture) provides reasonable notice regarding potential United States withholding taxes and requests Holders and beneficial owners to provide applicable U.S. tax forms; or

(vi) any combination of the above.

As used herein and for purposes of this Note, any reference to the principal of and interest on the Notes and the Redemption Price, if any, shall be deemed to include a reference to any related Additional Amounts payable in respect of such amounts. The Issuer will also pay any stamp, registration, excise or property taxes and any other similar levies (including any interest and penalties related thereto) imposed by any Taxing Jurisdiction on the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of any of the Notes, the Indenture or any other document or instrument referred to therein.

The Issuer may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the Notes under the Indenture and issue such increased principal amount (or any portion thereof), in which case any additional Notes so issued will have the same form and terms (other than the date of issuance and the issue price and, under certain circumstances, the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue and the initial Interest Payment Date), and will carry the same right to receive accrued and unpaid interest, as the Notes previously issued, and such additional Notes will form a single series with the previously issued Notes, including for voting purposes.

No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. The Notes are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided in the Indenture, as a whole at any time, or in part from time to time.

If the Notes are redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, prior to March 15, 2024, the Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed will be equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of the present value of (A) the payment on March 15, 2024 of principal of the Notes to be redeemed and (B) the payment of the remaining scheduled payments through March 15, 2024 of interest on the Notes to be redeemed (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) and subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) discounted from their scheduled date of payment to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points plus, in each of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

If the Notes are redeemed on or after March 15, 2024, the Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed will equal 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

The definitions of certain terms used in the paragraph above are listed below.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming a maturity date of March 15, 2024) 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 such Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes, (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest 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 quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the Issuer appoints to act as the Independent Investment Banker from time to time.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Barclays Capital Inc., ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ Incorporated and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a primary dealer of U.S. government securities in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Issuer.

“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 at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding 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 (519)” 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 U.S. 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 remaining term of the Notes yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will 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 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 will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

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

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 Issuer 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 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.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof (or premium, if any) or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.

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