Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to provide for the issuance by the Company from time to time of the Company’s
unsecured debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (the “Securities”), to be issued in one or more series
as provided in the Indenture.


 


The Company desires to issue and sell $34,500,000
of the Company’s 7.25% Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”).


 


Sections 901(5) and 901(7) of the Base Indenture
provide that without the consent of Holders of the Securities of any series issued under the Indenture, the Company, when authorized
by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures
supplemental to the Base Indenture to (i) change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture when there is no Security
Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of the supplemental indenture that is entitled to the benefit of such
provision and (ii) establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Section 201 and Section 301 of the Base
Indenture.


 


The Company desires to establish the form
and terms of the Notes and to modify, alter, supplement and change certain provisions of the Base Indenture for the benefit of
the Holders of the Notes (except as may be provided in a future supplemental indenture to the Indenture applicable to the Notes
(“Future Supplemental Indenture”)).


 


The Company has duly authorized the execution
and delivery of this Third Supplemental Indenture to provide for the issuance of the Notes and amendment of certain provisions

done and performed.

be given in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid or by overnight courier guaranteeing next-day delivery, to each Holder

7.25% Notes due 2024


 


This Security is one of a duly authorized
issue of Senior Securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more
series under an Indenture, dated as of August 9, 2016 (herein called the “Base Indenture”, which term shall have the
meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (herein called the
“Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Base Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the
Base Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company,
the Trustee, and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered, as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture relating to the Securities, dated as of January 18, 2017, by and
between the Company and the Trustee (herein called the “Third Supplemental Indenture”; the Third Supplemental Indenture
and the Base Indenture collectively are herein called the “Indenture”). In the event of any conflict between the Base
Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture shall govern and control.


 


This Security
is one of the series designated on the face hereof, which series is initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $34,500,000.
Under a Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate pursuant to Board Resolutions or an indenture supplement, the Company may
from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of Securities, issue additional Securities of this series (in any such case
“Additional Securities”) having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Securities.
Any Additional Securities and the existing Securities will constitute a single series under the Indenture and all references to
the relevant Securities herein shall include the Additional Securities unless the context otherwise requires. The aggregate amount
of outstanding Securities represented hereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges,
redemptions and issuances.


 


The Securities
of this series are subject to redemption in whole or in part at any time or from time to time, at the option of the Company, on
or after January 30, 2020, at a redemption price per security equal to 100% of the outstanding
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest payments otherwise payable for the then-current quarterly interest period
accrued to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption.


 


Notice of redemption shall be given in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid or by overnight courier guaranteeing next-day delivery, to each Holder of the Securities
to be redeemed, not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date, at the Holder’s address
appearing in the Security Register. All notices of redemption shall contain the information set forth in Section 1104 of the Base
Indenture.


 


Any exercise of the Company’s option
to redeem the Securities will be done in compliance with the Indenture and the Investment Company Act, to the extent applicable.


 


If the Company elects to redeem only a portion
of the Securities, the Trustee or the Depositary, as applicable, will determine the method for selecting the particular Securities
to be redeemed, in accordance with the Indenture to the extent applicable. In the event of redemption of this Security in part
only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name
of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.


 


Unless the Company defaults in payment of
the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities called for redemption.


 


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


 


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


 






     


     


    

 


The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions
as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of
the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with
the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series
to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the
Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance
by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any
such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders
of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.


 


As provided in and subject to the provisions
of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security 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 Securities of this series, the Holders of not less
than 50% in principal amount of the Securities of this series 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 reasonable indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request, and the Trustee shall not have received from the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such
request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for sixty (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 Security for the enforcement of
any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.


 


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


 


As provided in the Indenture and subject
to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender
of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any
premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing,
and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.


 


The Securities of this series are issuable
only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $25 and any integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof. As provided
in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.


 


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


 


Prior to due presentment of this Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the
