REGISTRATION AND EXCHANGE OF NOTES

Section 2.01 Title and Terms; Payments. There is hereby established a series of Securities designated the “7.75% Senior Notes due 2022” initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $75 million (or up to $86.25 million if the over-allotment option described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, as supplemented by the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, is exercised), which amount shall be as set forth in a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture. The Notes shall be issued only in fully registered form, in denominations of $25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof.

The principal amount of Notes then Outstanding shall be payable at the Stated Maturity. Interest on the Notes shall accrue at a rate of 7.75% per annum, from and including the date of issuance (August 15, 2012 with respect to the Initial Notes, and such later date(s) with respect to any Additional Notes) or from and including the most recent date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to, but not including, the next Interest Payment Date, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 15, 2012, to the Person in whose name a Note is registered on the Security Register at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date. If any Interest Payment Date, the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date or Repurchase Price Payment Date is a Legal Holiday, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to such next succeeding day. Interest will be computed on the basis of twelve 30-day months and a 360-day year. The amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full quarterly interest period will be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 90-day quarter of three 30-day months.

The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium at the rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful. Such interest is referred to herein collectively as “default interest.”

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, hereafter issue additional Notes (“Additional Notes”) under the Indenture with the same terms and conditions, except for any difference in the CUSIP number, issue price, issue date and interest accrued prior to the issue date of the Additional Notes, as the Notes issued on the date of this First Supplemental Indenture (together with any Notes issued pursuant to the over-allotment option described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, as supplemented by the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the “Initial Notes”) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount. Any such Additional Notes shall constitute a single series together with the Initial Notes for all purposes hereunder, including, without limitation, for purposes of any waivers, supplements or amendments to the Indenture requiring the approval of Holders of the Notes and any offers to purchase the Notes.

The Form of Note shall be substantially as set forth in Exhibit A and the Form of Assignment and Transfer shall be substantially as set forth in Attachment 1 to Exhibit A, each of which is incorporated into and shall be deemed a part of this First Supplemental Indenture, and 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 may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or as may, consistently herewith, be determined to be necessary or appropriate by the Officers of the Company executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution of the Notes.

The Company shall pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on any Global Note in immediately available funds to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered Holder of such Global Note. Holders of certificated Notes, if any, must surrender such certificated Notes to the Paying Agent to collect principal and interest payments at the Stated Maturity. The Company shall pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on any certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified the Company shall pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on those Notes at the office or agency designated by the Company for that purpose by check mailed to the Holders of those Notes. All payments on the Notes will be made in U.S. Dollars or in such other coin or currency of the United States of America, as of the time of payment, is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Section 2.02 Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes. The Notes initially shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Notes without interest coupons (a) registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depositary and (b) delivered to the Paying Agent as Custodian for the Depositary.

In case the Company shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.01, it shall fix a date for redemption and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not fewer than fifteen (15) Business Days prior (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee) to the date the notice of redemption is to be delivered, the Trustee in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a notice of such redemption not fewer than thirty (30) calendar days nor more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder so to be redeemed in whole or in part at its last address as the same appears on the Security Register, so long as the information required by this Section 3.02 is provided to the Trustee at the time the Trustee is given the notice pursuant to this Section 3.02; provided that if the Company makes such request of the Trustee, the text of the notice shall be prepared by the Company. Such delivery shall be effected by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. The notice, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to deliver such notice or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Concurrently with the delivery of any such notice of redemption, the Company shall issue a press release through Dow ▇▇▇▇▇ & Company, Inc., Bloomberg Business News or PR Newswire or a substantially equivalent financial news organization announcing such redemption, the form and content of which press release shall be determined by the Company in its sole discretion. The Company shall also publish that information in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York, or on its web site, or through such other public medium as it deems appropriate at that time. The failure to issue any such press release or to publish such information or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the redemption notice or any of the proceedings for the redemption of any Note called for redemption.

Each such notice of redemption shall specify: (a) the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, (b) the CUSIP number or numbers, if any, of the Notes being redeemed, (c) the Redemption Date, (d) the Redemption Price at which Notes are to be redeemed, (e) the place or places of payment and that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Notes, and (f) that interest accrued and unpaid to, but not including, the Redemption Date will be paid as specified in said notice, and that on and after said date interest thereon or on the portion thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue, as provided in Section 3.03. If fewer than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP numbers, if any). In case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

Whenever any Notes are to be redeemed, the Company shall give the Trustee and the Paying Agent written notice of the Redemption Date, together with an Officers’ Certificate as to the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, not fewer than fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the date the notice of redemption is to be delivered.

If less than all of the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions thereof of the Global Note or the Notes in certificated form to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $25 or integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof) (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed, (b) if the Notes are Global Notes but are not listed on any national securities exchange, by lot or by such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary and (c) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange and are not Global Notes, on a pro rata basis (to the extent practicable).

Section 3.03 Payment of Notes Called for Redemption by the Company. If notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 3.02, the Notes or portion of Notes with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in such notice at the Redemption Price, and unless the Company shall default in the payment of the amounts owing on the Notes upon such redemption, interest on the Notes or portion of Notes so called for redemption shall cease to accrue on and after such date and the Notes shall cease to be entitled to any benefit or security under this First Supplemental Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Notes except the right to receive the Redemption Price thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Notes at a Place of Payment in said notice specified, the said Notes or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the Redemption Price.

On or prior to the Redemption Date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in Section 3.02, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03 of the Base Indenture) an amount of money in immediately available funds sufficient to redeem on the Redemption Date all the Notes (or portions thereof) so called for redemption (other than those theretofore surrendered for exchange) at the appropriate Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided that if such payment is made on the Redemption Date, it must be received by the Paying Agent, by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date. The Company shall be entitled to retain any interest, yield or gain on amounts deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 3.03 in excess of amounts required hereunder to pay the Redemption Price; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be under any liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed to with the Company in writing.

Section 3.04 Sinking Fund. There shall be no sinking fund provided for the Notes and the provisions of Article Twelve of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

Section 4.02 Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. The Company covenants that in the case of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 4.01(a), 4.01(b) or 4.01(c), that upon demand from the Trustee, it will pay to the Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf), for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, (a) the whole amount that then shall be due and payable on all such Notes for principal or interest (including default interest to the extent permitted by law), as the case may be, from the required payment date and, (b) in addition thereto, any amounts due the Trustee and the Agents under Section 6.06 of the Base Indenture. Until such demand by the Trustee, the Company may pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to the registered Holders, whether or not the Notes are overdue.

In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor on the Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes wherever situated the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

In case there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under any Bankruptcy Law, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the case of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.02, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee, the Agents and of the Noteholders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due the Trustee and the Agents under Section 6.06 of the Base Indenture, and to take any other action with respect to such claims, including participating as a member of any official committee of creditors, as it deems necessary or advisable, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Noteholders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Trustee and the Agents any amount due them for compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including counsel fees and expenses incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property which the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this First Supplemental Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this First Supplemental Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.

Section 4.03 Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article IV or, after an Event of Default, any money or property distributable in respect of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture, shall be applied, in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee or the Paying Agent on its behalf for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee, the Agents and any predecessors under Section 6.06 of the Base Indenture;

SECOND: In case the principal of the Outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes in default in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest, with default interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee), such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

THIRD: In case the principal of the Outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid as to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, with default interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee), and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest; and

FOURTH: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto.

Section 4.04 Proceedings by Noteholder. No Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by reference to any provision of the Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, except in the case of a default in the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, the Notes, including as a result of acceleration, unless (a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, (b) the Holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity satisfactory to it as it may require against the costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred therein or thereby, (c) the Trustee for sixty (60) calendar days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and (d) no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.07; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by reference to any provision of this First Supplemental Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this First Supplemental Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Notes (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 4.04, each and every Noteholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of the principal of (including the Redemption Price or Repurchase Price upon redemption or repurchase pursuant to Article III or Article VIII, respectively) and accrued interest on such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note or in the event of redemption or repurchase, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 4.05 Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this First Supplemental Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this First Supplemental Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this First Supplemental Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this First Supplemental Indenture or by law.

Section 4.06 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. All powers and remedies given by this Article IV to the Trustee or to the Noteholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this First Supplemental Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default or Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or any acquiescence therein, and, subject to the provisions of Section 4.05, every power and remedy given by this Article IV or by law to the Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders.

Section 4.07 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Noteholders. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this First Supplemental Indenture, (b) the Trustee may take any other action which is not inconsistent with such direction, (c) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would benefit some Noteholder to the detriment of other Noteholders and (d) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

Upon any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee, the Agents and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 4.07, said default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this First Supplemental Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 4.08 Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within ninety (90) calendar days after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or receives written notice from the Company or the Holders of the occurrence of a default, mail to all Noteholders, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Security Register (as provided to the Trustee by the Security Register), notice of all defaults actually known to a Responsible Officer, unless such defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that except in the case of (a) a default in the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on, the Notes when due, (b) a default in the payment of the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date pursuant to Article III, and (c) a default in the payment of the Repurchase Price on the Repurchase Price Payment Date pursuant to Article VIII, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Noteholders. 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. Solely for purposes of the Notes, this Section 4.08 supersedes Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture.

Section 4.09 Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this First Supplemental Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this First Supplemental Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 4.09 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the aggregate more than ten percent in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding determined in accordance with Section 1.04 of the Base Indenture, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on, any Note on or after the due date expressed in such Note.

Section 4.10 Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 4.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes pursuant to Article III of the First Supplemental Indenture prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Company shall make an offer to each Holder to repurchase all or any part 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 not including, the Repurchase Price Payment Date.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of (and premium, if any), and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes may be declared to be due and payable in the manner specified in the Indenture.

The Notes will be secured by a lien in the Promissory Note as described and subject to the conditions described in the Indenture.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any past default or Event of Default, subject to exceptions set forth in the Indenture. Upon any such waiver, said default shall for all purposes of this Note and the Indenture be deemed to have been cured and not to be continuing, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

A-4

The repurchase price for the Note in such circumstance will be equal to the aggregate redemption, repurchase or open market purchase price paid by the Holder in respect of the Winthrop Notes.

(B) Upon any redemption, repurchase, or open market purchase of less than all of the outstanding Winthrop Notes by the Holder in compliance with the terms of the Winthrop Indenture, the Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase the same relative portion of this Note. To achieve this result the Company will be permitted to simultaneously cancel this Note and issue a new Note, in form substantially consistent with Exhibit C to the Winthrop Indenture, to the Holder for such lesser principal amount.

No delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other rights of the Holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar or waiver of the same or any other right on any further occasion.

(vii) Defaults and Remedies. Upon an acceleration of the Winthrop Notes pursuant to the terms of the Winthrop Indenture, this Note will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. To the extent such acceleration of the Winthrop Notes is rescinded or waived, the acceleration under this Note will be automatically rescinded or waived, respectively.

(x) Waivers. The Company hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance or enforcement of this Note. No delay or omission on the part of the holder of this Note in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right under this Note, and a waiver, delay or omission on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right on any future occasion.
