 FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 19, 2010,
between THE SEGREGATED ACCOUNT OF AMBAC ASSURANCE CORPORATION (and any successor in interest thereto, the “Issuer”) and THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON, a New York banking corporation, as Fiscal Agent (as defined herein). The Exhibits
attached hereto shall be deemed to be a part of this Agreement. 
 1. The Notes. 

(a) General. The aggregate principal amount of 5.1% Surplus Notes of the Issuer (the “Notes”) that may be authenticated
and delivered under this Agreement from time to time is unlimited. Claims based upon the Notes will rank below all Indebtedness, Policy Claims and Prior Claims (each as defined in the Notes). The payment by the Issuer of principal and interest on
the Notes shall be conditioned upon the payment restrictions set forth in paragraphs 4 and 10 of the Notes (the “Payment Restrictions”). The Notes are scheduled to mature on June 7, 2020 (the “Scheduled
Maturity Date”). Any reference herein to the term “scheduled maturity date” or other date for the payment of principal of the Notes shall include (i) the date, if any, fixed for redemption in accordance with
paragraph 15 of the Notes and (ii) the date upon which any state or federal agency obtains an order or grants approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer or the general account of Ambac
Assurance Corporation (the “General Account”), excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Order. “Excluded Order” means any order or approval of the type described in clause (ii) above entered
or granted prior to the date hereof or any such order or approval entered or granted on or after the date hereof in the rehabilitation proceeding under Chapter 645 of the Wisconsin Statutes pending with respect to the Issuer as of the date hereof
(the “Proceeding”), except to the extent that any such order or approval by its express terms provides for the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes or otherwise designates the scheduled maturity date or other maturity date or
date for the payment of principal of the Notes. 
 (b) Forms of Notes. The Notes are being issued by the Issuer from time to time as
set forth below. 
 (i) Notes offered and sold to “institutional accredited investors” (each, an
“Institutional Accredited Investor”) within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), shall be issued in the form of Global Notes (as defined
below) (the “Restricted Global Notes”) in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided for in Exhibit B.
Each such Global Note shall be registered in the name of a nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the “U.S. Depositary”) and deposited with the Fiscal Agent, at its New York City office, as custodian for the U.S. Depositary, duly
executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Fiscal Agent as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of each Restricted Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Fiscal
Agent, as custodian for the U.S. Depositary, as hereinafter provided. 
 (ii) (A) Notes offered and sold in reliance on
Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Act shall be issued initially in the form of temporary Global 







 
Notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the form of Note attached as Exhibit B hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided for in
Exhibit B. Each such Global Note shall be registered in the name of a nominee of the U.S. Depositary and deposited with the Fiscal Agent, at its New York City office, as custodian for the U.S. Depositary, duly executed by the Issuer and
authenticated by the Fiscal Agent as hereinafter provided, for credit to the respective accounts of Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, Luxembourg
(“Clearstream Banking”). Until such time as the Restricted Period (as defined below) shall have terminated, each such Global Note shall be referred to herein as a “Temporary Regulation S Global Note.” After the
Restricted Period shall have terminated, interests in each such Global Note shall be exchangeable for equivalent interests in a like Global Note, referred to herein as a “Permanent Regulation S Global Note.” The aggregate principal
amount of each Temporary Regulation S Global Note and each Permanent Regulation S Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Fiscal Agent, as custodian for the U.S. Depositary, as
hereinafter provided. As used herein, the term “Restricted Period” means the period of 40 consecutive days beginning on and including the issue date of the Temporary Regulation S Global Note. 

(B) An owner of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note (or a person acting on behalf of such an owner)
may provide to Euroclear or Clearstream Banking, as applicable, (and Euroclear or Clearstream Banking will accept) a duly completed certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit G (a “Certificate of Beneficial Ownership”)
at any time after the termination of the Restricted Period (it being understood that Euroclear or Clearstream Banking, as applicable, will not accept any such certificate during the Restricted Period). Promptly after receipt by the Fiscal Agent of a
Certificate of Beneficial Ownership from the U.S. Depositary on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream Banking, as applicable (or other appropriate confirmation to such effect in accordance with the Applicable Procedures (as defined below)), with
respect to such a beneficial interest, the Fiscal Agent will cause such beneficial interest to be exchanged for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Permanent Regulation S Global Note, and will (x) permanently reduce the principal amount of
such Temporary Regulation S Global Note by the amount of the beneficial interest certified in such Certificate of Beneficial Ownership and (y) increase the principal amount of such Permanent Regulation S Global Note by the amount of the
beneficial interest certified in such Certificate of Beneficial Ownership, in each case subject to the Applicable Procedures. 

(iii) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 1(b), Notes may be issued as certificated securities in
definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided in Exhibit A (“Certificated Notes”). 

All Notes shall be issued substantially in the form attached hereto as either Exhibit A or B, as applicable, and shall be
executed manually, in facsimile or portable document format on behalf of the Issuer by any of, (i) while the Issuer is subject to the Proceeding, the rehabilitator of the Issuer under the Proceeding appointed by the rehabilitation court and
such rehabilitator’s successors (the “Rehabilitator”) or a designee of such Rehabilitator (including any management 

  
 2 








 
service provider) and, (ii) while the Issuer is not subject to the Proceeding, the Issuer’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Executive Vice President or Chief Financial Officer (the
persons specified in the foregoing (i) and (ii), as applicable, the “Authorized Officers”), notwithstanding that such officers, or any of them, shall have ceased, for any reason, to hold such offices prior to the authentication
and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of any such Note. The Notes also may have such (A) additional provisions, omissions, variations or substitutions as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement
and (B) letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with this Agreement, any law or with any rules made pursuant thereto or with the rules of any securities
exchange, insurance regulatory or other governmental agency or depositary therefor or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Authorized Officer executing such Notes, in the case of both (A) and (B), as conclusively evidenced by the
proper execution of such Notes by any such Authorized Officer. All Notes shall be otherwise identical except as to denomination and as otherwise provided herein. 

(c) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 1(c) shall apply to all Notes evidencing all or part of the Notes that are
registered in the name of the U.S. Depositary or a nominee thereof (“Global Notes”). 
 The Issuer shall execute and the
Fiscal Agent shall, in accordance with this Section 1(c) and with Section 3, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Notes as required to be issued pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof, which (A) shall be
registered in the name of the U.S. Depositary or its nominee, (B) shall be retained by the Fiscal Agent as custodian for the U.S. Depositary and (C) shall bear legends substantially to the following effect: 

“UNLESS THIS NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (“DTC”) TO THE ISSUER OR
ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY NOTE ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR THIS NOTE OR ANY PORTION HEREOF IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON OTHER THAN DTC OR A NOMINEE
THEREOF IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.” 
 “THIS NOTE IS A
GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREINAFTER. THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY NOT BE EXCHANGED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, FOR A NOTE REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF ANY PERSON OTHER THAN DTC OR A NOMINEE THEREOF, EXCEPT IN THE
LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES SET FORTH IN SECTION 5 OF THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT, AND MAY NOT BE 

  
 3 








 
TRANSFERRED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6(c) OF THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT. BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN THIS GLOBAL NOTE MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 6(c) OF THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT.” 
 Neither any members of, or participants in, the
U.S. Depositary (“Agent Members”) nor any other persons on whose behalf Agent Members may act (including, without limitation, Euroclear and Clearstream Banking and account holders and participants therein) shall have any rights
under this Fiscal Agency Agreement with respect to any Global Note registered in the name of the U.S. Depositary or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Note, and the U.S. Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by
the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent as the absolute owner and holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent
or any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the U.S. Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the U.S. Depositary, its Agent
Members and any other person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such persons governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note. 

(d) Persons Deemed Owners. The Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent may treat the person in whose
name a Note is registered as the absolute owner and holder of such Note for all purposes whatsoever, and none of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary. Any reference herein and in any
Note to the term “holder” of a Note or “registered holder” shall be to the person in whose name a Note is registered in the register maintained for such purposes pursuant to Section 6 hereof. 

(e) Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $1 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. 

2. Fiscal Agent; Other Agents. The Issuer hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its corporate trust office at 101
Barclay Street, Floor 8W, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Finance Group (the “Corporate Trust Office”), as fiscal agent of the Issuer in respect of the Notes upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set
forth, and The Bank of New York Mellon hereby accepts such appointment. The Bank of New York Mellon, and any successor or successors as such fiscal agent qualified and appointed in accordance with Section 10 hereof, are herein called the
“Fiscal Agent.” The Fiscal Agent shall have the powers and authority granted to and conferred upon it in the Notes and hereby and such further powers and authority to act on behalf of the Issuer as may be mutually agreed upon by the
Issuer and the Fiscal Agent. The Fiscal Agent shall keep a copy of this Agreement available for inspection during normal business hours at its Corporate Trust Office. The Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent (as defined below) shall also act as Transfer
Agent (as defined below). All of the terms and provisions with respect to such powers and authority contained in the Notes are subject to and governed by the terms and provisions hereof. 

  
 4 








 The Issuer may, at its discretion, appoint one or more agents (a “Paying Agent”
or “Paying Agents”) for the payment, to the extent permitted under the Payment Restrictions, of the principal of and any interest on the Notes, and one or more agents (a “Transfer Agent” or “Transfer
Agents”) for the transfer and exchange of Notes, at such place or places as the Issuer may determine; provided, however, that the Issuer shall at all times maintain a Paying Agent and Transfer Agent in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York (which Paying Agent and Transfer Agent may be the Fiscal Agent). The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Fiscal Agent at its Corporate Trust Office as Paying Agent, Transfer Agent, authenticating agent and securities
registrar, and the Fiscal Agent hereby accepts such appointments. The Transfer Agent shall act as a securities registrar and there shall be kept at the office of the Transfer Agent a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the
Issuer may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers or exchanges of Notes. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Fiscal Agent of the name and address of any other Paying Agent or Transfer
Agent appointed by it and of the country or countries in which a Paying Agent or Transfer Agent may act in that capacity, and will notify the Fiscal Agent of the resignation or termination of any such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent. Subject to the
provisions of Section 10(c) hereof, the Issuer may vary or terminate the appointment of any such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent at any time and from time to time upon giving not less than 90 days’ notice to such Paying Agent or
Transfer Agent, as the case may be, and to the Fiscal Agent. The Issuer shall cause written notice of any resignation, termination or appointment of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and of any change in the office through which
any such Agent will act to be provided to holders of Notes as soon as reasonably practicable following the Issuer’s receipt of notice thereof. 

3. Authentication. The Fiscal Agent is authorized from time to time, upon receipt of Notes duly executed on behalf of the Issuer and in
accordance with the written order or orders of the Issuer signed on its behalf by an Authorized Officer, which order or orders shall include confirmation that all conditions precedent to the authentication of such Notes have been met and that
authentication of such Notes is authorized and permitted by this Agreement, to manually authenticate and deliver Notes in accordance with the provisions therein and hereinafter set forth. 

The Fiscal Agent may, with the consent of the Issuer, appoint by an instrument or instruments in writing, one or more agents (which may
include itself) for the authentication of the Notes and, with such consent, vary or terminate any such appointment upon written notice and approve any change in the office through which any authenticating agent acts. The Issuer (by written notice to
the Fiscal Agent and the authenticating agent whose appointment is to be terminated) may also terminate any such appointment at any time. The Fiscal Agent hereby agrees to solicit written acceptances from the entities concerned (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Issuer) of such appointments. In its acceptance of such appointment, each such authenticating agent shall agree to act as an authenticating agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

4. Payment and Cancellation. 

(a) Payment. For so long as the Fiscal Agent is acting as a Paying Agent hereunder, the Issuer, subject to the Payment Restrictions,
shall provide to the Fiscal Agent, or such other Paying Agent if the Fiscal Agent is no longer acting as a Paying Agent, in immediately available 

  
 5 








 
funds on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York time, on each date on which a payment of principal of or any interest on the Notes shall be payable, as set forth in the text of the Notes, such amounts,
in U.S. dollars, as are necessary (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to make such payment, and the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent from funds so provided to it to make or cause to be
made payment of the principal of and any interest, as the case may be, on the Notes in the manner, at the times and for the purposes set forth herein and in the text of said Notes; provided that the Issuer will not provide any such funds to
the Fiscal Agent prior to such time as the relevant payment of principal or interest is approved by the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Wisconsin or any successor thereto (the “Commissioner”). Permitted payments of
principal of or any interest on the Notes to the persons (the “registered holders”) in whose names such Notes are registered on the register maintained pursuant to Section 6 hereof at the close of business on the record dates
designated in the text of the Notes will be made (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank as specified in the text of the Notes if such registered holder gives notice to the Fiscal
Agent, not less than 15 days (or such fewer days as the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the date on which such payments are scheduled to be made, of the account to which payment is to be made or, (ii) if no such notice is
given, by mailing a check to the payee at the address reflected in the register maintained pursuant to Section 6 hereof. Unless the designation of the payee’s account to which payment is to be made is revoked, any such designation
made by such holder with respect to such Notes shall remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Notes payable to such holder. The Issuer shall pay any reasonable administrative costs in connection with making any such
payments. The Fiscal Agent shall arrange directly with any other Paying Agent who may have been appointed by the Issuer pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 hereof for the payment, subject to the Payment Restrictions, from funds so
paid by the Issuer of the principal of and any interest on the Notes in the manner, at the times and for the purposes set forth herein and in the text of said Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may provide directly to a Paying Agent
(other than the Fiscal Agent) funds for the payment, subject to the Payment Restrictions, of the principal thereof and interest payable thereon under an agreement with respect to such funds containing substantially the same terms and conditions set
forth in this Section 4(a) and in Section 9(b) hereof; and the Fiscal Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to any funds so provided by the Issuer to any such Paying Agent. To the extent that the Fiscal Agent is not
acting as Paying Agent, references to the Fiscal Agent in this Section 4(a) shall include the Paying Agent in such capacity. 

Funds received by the Paying Agent will be applied first to the amounts then due to the Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Fiscal Agent under
Section 9(a) and then to the principal of and interest on the Notes. 
 Payments of principal of and interest on the Notes shall be
made in the manner set forth in the Notes, including the Payment Restrictions set forth therein. 
 For any amounts due and payable under
the Notes that are approved by the Commissioner in accordance with this Section 4(a) and which are due and payable under the Secured Note dated as of March 24, 2010, from Ambac Assurance Corporation to the Issuer (the

 5. Global Notes. 

(a) Exchange for Certificated Notes. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, a Global Note shall not be
exchanged in whole or in part for a Note registered in the name of any person other than the U.S. Depositary or one or more nominees thereof; provided that a Global Note may also be exchanged for Notes registered in the names of any person
designated by the U.S. Depositary in the event that such exchange is permitted by applicable law and (i) the U.S. Depositary has notified the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as U.S. Depositary for such Global Note or the U.S.
Depositary has ceased to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Issuer fails to appoint a successor depositary within 90 days of receiving such
notice, (ii) an event described in paragraph 14(a) or the first sentence of paragraph 14(b) of the Notes has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, (iii) a request for certificates has been made upon 60

such Global Note has notified the Fiscal Agent and securities registrar in writing that it is transferring such beneficial interest to an Institutional Accredited Investor and such holder (1) requests in such written notice that certificates be
delivered to such transferee and (2) complies with the requirements for transfer specified in Section 6(c)(vi) of this Agreement. Any Global Note exchanged pursuant to clause (i) above shall be so exchanged in whole and
not in part and any Global Note exchanged pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above may be exchanged in whole or from time to time in part as directed by the U.S. Depositary. Any Note issued in exchange for a Global

City of New York, to be so exchanged. With regard to any Global Note to be exchanged in part, either such Global 

  
 7 








 
Note shall be so surrendered to the Transfer Agent for exchange or, if the Fiscal Agent is acting as custodian for the U.S. Depositary or its nominee with respect to such Global Note, the
principal amount thereof shall be reduced, by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Fiscal Agent. Upon any such surrender or adjustment, the Fiscal Agent shall
authenticate and deliver the Note duly executed by the Issuer in connection with such exchange to or upon the order of the U.S. Depositary or an authorized representative thereof. Any Note delivered in exchange for the Restricted Global Note or any
portion thereof shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 6(g), bear the legend regarding transfer restrictions applicable to the Registered Global Note set forth on the form of Note attached as Exhibit B hereto. 

(c) Authorization by Registered Holder. Subject to the provisions of Section 1(c) above, the registered holder may grant

Notes. 
 (d) Certificated Notes Made Available. In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in paragraph

6. Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Notes. 

(a) General. The Fiscal Agent, as agent of the Issuer for this purpose, shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, a register of Notes for the registration of Notes and the transfers and exchanges thereof. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6, upon presentation for the registration, transfer or exchange of any
Note at the office of any Transfer Agent accompanied by a written instrument of transfer or exchange in the form reasonably approved by the Issuer (it being understood that, until notice to the contrary is given to holders of Notes, the Issuer shall
be deemed to have approved the form of instrument of transfer or exchange, if any, printed on any Note), executed by the registered holder, in person or by such holder’s attorney thereunto duly authorized in writing, such Note shall be
transferred upon the register for the Notes, and a new Note shall be authenticated and issued in the name of the transferee. No transfer shall be effected under this Agreement or the Notes until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of
the transferor only upon, final acceptance and registration of transfer by the Fiscal Agent, as Transfer Agent, or by the Transfer Agent if the Fiscal Agent is not so serving, in the register. 

(b) Transfers of Restricted Certificated Notes. If a holder of Certificated Notes that bear or are required to bear the legends set
forth in the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto (“Restricted Certificated Notes”) wishes at any time to transfer such Restricted Certificated Notes or to exchange such Restricted Certificated Notes, such exchange or
transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(b). 
 (i) Transfer and
Exchange of Restricted Certificated Notes. Upon the receipt by the Fiscal Agent, as Transfer Agent, at its office in The City of New York, of (i) a Restricted Certificated Note accompanied by a written and executed instrument of transfer or
exchange as provided in Section 6(a) and (ii) the following additional information and documents, as applicable: 

(1) if such Restricted Certificated Note is owned by the holder thereof and is being exchanged, without transfer, a
certification from such holder to that effect, substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto; or 

  
 8 








 (2) if such Restricted Certificated Note is transferred pursuant to an exemption
from registration in accordance with Rule 144A under the Act (“Rule 144A”), Rule 144, Regulation S or such other exemption from registration under the Act, a certification from such holder to that effect and if the Fiscal Agent or
the Issuer so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to compliance with the restrictions contained in the legend set forth on the security, the Fiscal Agent shall register the transfer of such Restricted
Certificated Note or exchange such Restricted Certificated Note for an equal principal amount of Restricted Certificated Notes of other authorized denominations. 

To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Fiscal Agent or Transfer Agent shall communicate to the Issuer any request from a
holder of a Note to so transfer or exchange and the Issuer shall execute and the Fiscal Agent (or an authenticating agent appointed pursuant to Section 3) shall authenticate and deliver such Restricted Certificated Note. No service charge shall
be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require payment by the holder of a Note of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with any
registration of transfer or exchange. 
 All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid
obligations of the Issuer, subject to the Payment Restrictions, evidencing the same debt, and the applicable provisions of this Agreement shall apply equally thereto, as to the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(ii) Transfer of a Restricted Certificated Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. Upon the receipt by the
Fiscal Agent, as Transfer Agent, at its Corporate Trust Office in The City of New York of (i) a Restricted Certificated Note accompanied by a written and executed instrument of transfer or exchange as provided in
Section 6(a), (ii) written instructions from an Agent Member directing the Fiscal Agent to credit or cause to be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note or the
Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as the case may be, having a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Restricted Certificated Note so transferred, (iii) a written order containing information regarding the account of the
Agent Member to be credited with such beneficial interest and (iv) the following additional documents, as applicable:

Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Act, a certification from such holder to that effect, substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto; 

  
 9 








 (2) if such Restricted Certificated Note is transferred pursuant to an exemption
from registration in accordance with Rule 144A under the Act, a certification from such holder to that effect substantially in the form of Exhibit C-3 hereto; or 

(3) if such Restricted Certificated Note is transferred pursuant to any other exemption from registration under the Act, a
certification from such holder to that effect and if the Fiscal Agent or the Issuer so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to compliance with the restrictions contained in the legend set forth on the
security, 
 the Fiscal Agent shall cancel such Restricted Certificated Note and shall instruct the U.S. Depositary to increase the principal
amount of the Restricted Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as the case may be, by the principal amount of the Restricted Certificated Note so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the person
specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as the case may be, having a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Restricted Certificated Note so
transferred. 
 (c) Transfers of Global Notes and Interests Therein. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the
Notes, transfers of a Global Note, in whole or in part, and transfers of interests therein of the kind described in clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) below, shall be made only in accordance with this
Section 6(c), and all transfers of an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note shall comply with Section 6(c)(iv) or (v) below, as applicable. 

(i) General. A Global Note may not be transferred, in whole or in part, to any person other than the U.S. Depositary or
a nominee thereof, and no such transfer to any such other person may be registered; provided that this clause (i) shall not prohibit any transfer of a Note that is issued in exchange for a Global Note but is not itself a Global
Note. No transfer of a Note to any person shall be effective under this Agreement or the Notes unless and until such Note has been registered in the name of such person. The transfer and exchange of any beneficial interest in Global Notes shall be
effected through the U.S. Depositary in accordance with this Agreement (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the U.S. Depositary therefor and nothing in this Section 6(c)(i) shall
prohibit or render ineffective any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Note effected in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 6(c). 

(ii) Restricted Global Note to Temporary Regulation S Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the
Restricted Global Note wishes at any time to transfer 

  
 10 








 
such interest to a person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note, such transfer may be effected, subject to the rules
and procedures of the U.S. Depositary, Euroclear and Clearstream Banking, in each case to the extent applicable (the “Applicable Procedures”), only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c)(ii). Upon receipt

to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the person specified in such instructions (which shall be the Agent Member for Euroclear or Clearstream Banking or both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S
Global Note having a principal amount equal to the amount by which the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note was reduced upon such transfer. 

(iii) Restricted Global Note to Permanent Regulation S Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the
Restricted Global Note wishes at any time after the expiration of the Restricted Period to transfer such interest to a person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Note, such
transfer may be effected, subject to the Applicable Procedures, only in accordance with this Section 6(c)(iii). Upon receipt by the Fiscal Agent, as Transfer Agent, at its office in The City of New York of (1) written instructions

Member (and, in the case of any such transfer pursuant to Regulation S, if such account is held for Euroclear or Clearstream Banking the Euroclear or Clearstream Banking account for which such Agent Member’s account is held) to be credited
with, and the account of the Agent Member to be debited for, such beneficial interest and (3) a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit E attached hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest, the Fiscal Agent, as
Transfer Agent, shall instruct the U.S. Depositary to reduce the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note, and to increase the principal amount of the Permanent Regulation S Global Note, by the principal amount of the beneficial interest in
the Restricted Global Note to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the person

 (iv) Temporary Regulation S Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note to
Restricted Global Note. If the holder of a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note wishes at any time to transfer such interest to a person who wishes to take delivery thereof in

its office in The City of New York of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from an Agent Member, directing the Fiscal Agent, as Transfer Agent, to credit or cause to be credited to a specified Agent
Member’s account a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note equal to that of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note to be so transferred, (2) a written order

principal amount of the Temporary Regulation S Global Note or the Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as the case may be, was reduced upon such transfer. 

(v) Interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Note to be Held Through Euroclear or Clearstream Banking. Until the
termination of the Restricted Period, any interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note may be held only through Agent Members acting for and on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream Banking, and any purchaser of Notes in a sale made in reliance

prohibit any transfer in accordance with Section 6(c)(iv) hereof. 
 (vi) Other Exchanges. In the event
that a Global Note, any portion thereof or a beneficial interest therein is exchanged for Notes other than Global Notes, such other Notes may in turn be exchanged (on transfer or otherwise) for Notes that are not Global Notes or for beneficial
interests in a Global Note (if any is then outstanding) only in accordance with such procedures, which shall be substantially consistent with the 

  
 12 








 
provisions of Section 6(b); provided that any beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note shall not be exchangeable for a Certificated Note until the
expiration of the Restricted Period. 
 (d) Registration of Transfers and Exchanges. Successive registrations of transfers and
exchanges as aforesaid may be made from time to time as desired, and each such registration shall be noted on the securities register. No service charge shall be made to a holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, but the
Fiscal Agent may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith and any other amounts required to be paid by the provisions of the Notes. 

(e) Information from Transfer Agent. Any Transfer Agent appointed pursuant to Section 2 hereof shall provide to the Fiscal
Agent such information as the Fiscal Agent may reasonably require in connection with the delivery by such Transfer Agent of Notes upon transfer or exchange of Notes. 

(f) Periods of Non-registration. No Transfer Agent shall be required to make registrations of transfer or exchange of Notes during any
periods designated in the text of the Notes as periods during which such registration of transfer and exchanges need not be made. 
 (g)
Legend. If Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the legends required, as applicable, by the Act and by the forms of Notes attached as Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto, which legends are
set forth in the forms of Notes attached as Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto (collectively, the “Legend”), the Notes so issued shall not bear the Legend. If Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of
Notes bearing the Legend, or if a request is made to remove the Legend on a Note, the Notes so issued shall bear the Legend, or the Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Issuer such satisfactory evidence,
which may include an opinion of counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer that neither the Legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers
thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A, Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Act or that such Notes are not “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the
Fiscal Agent, at the written direction of the Issuer, shall authenticate and deliver a Note that does not bear the Legend or may remove the Legend, as the case may be. The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Fiscal Agent for, and to hold it harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense, including the fees and expenses of counsel, reasonably incurred, arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by the Fiscal Agent in reliance upon such legal opinion and the delivery of a
Note that does not bear a Legend. Upon any request for sale or other transfer of a Note (including any Global Note) bearing such Legend (a “Restricted Note”) made subsequent to the date which is one year (or for such period as may
otherwise be required by Rule 144 under the Act, or any successor rule or regulation permitting resales of the Notes without any conditions) after the later of the date of original issuance of the Notes and the last date on which the Issuer or an
affiliate of the Issuer, within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act, was the holder of such Restricted Note and with respect to which a certification is furnished by the transferor in substantially the form of Exhibit H hereto,
(i) in the case of any definitive Restricted Note, the Fiscal Agent, or the Transfer Agent if the Fiscal Agent does not also act as the Transfer Agent, will permit the holder thereof to exchange such


  
 13 








 
Restricted Note for definitive Notes that do not bear the Legend and such request will be effective to rescind any restriction on the further transfer of such Note, and (ii) any such
Restricted Notes represented by a Global Note will not be subject to any restriction on transfer and may, at the direction of the Issuer, be exchanged for a Global Note that does not bear the Legend; in each such case, such Notes (whether in
definitive or global form) will no longer constitute Restricted Notes. 
 (h) Repurchases by Issuer. With the prior approval of the
Commissioner, the Issuer and any person that constitutes an affiliate of the Issuer within the meaning of the Act may at any time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise at any price, for its own account or the account of others. Any Note so
purchased by the Issuer or any such affiliate for its own account shall not thereafter be re-issued or resold, except pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act. 

7. Redemption. Subject to the Payment Restrictions, including the prior approval of the Commissioner, the Notes may be redeemed, as a
whole or in part, at the option of the Issuer at any time and from time to time, at the Redemption Price set forth in paragraph 15 of the Notes. The Notes may not be redeemed at the option of a holder thereof. 

(a) Notice to Fiscal Agent. If the Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to paragraph 15 of the Notes, it shall notify the
Fiscal Agent in writing of the date designated for redemption, the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Price (as defined in the Notes) and that such redemption is being made pursuant to paragraph 15 of the
Notes. The Issuer shall give each notice to the Fiscal Agent provided for in this Section not less than 45 days (unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Fiscal Agent) nor more than 60 days before the date designated for redemption. 

(b) Selection of Notes to be Redeemed. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, each Outstanding Note shall be redeemed,
pro rata; provided that if at the time of redemption such Notes are registered as a Global Note, the U.S. Depositary for such Global Note shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes to
be redeemed held by each holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note. The Fiscal Agent shall notify the Issuer promptly of the Notes or portion thereof selected to be redeemed. Notwithstanding any provision hereof or of the Notes to the
contrary, any redemption of the Notes hereunder shall be pro rata with any other surplus or contribution notes or similar obligations issued from time to time by the Issuer or the General Account (or any successor or assign thereof in respect
of such notes or similar obligations), in each case except to the extent that any such notes or similar obligations are, by their express terms, subordinated to the Notes. 

(c) Notice of Redemption; Effect of Notice. Notices to redeem Notes shall be given by the Fiscal Agent on behalf of and at the expense
of the Issuer in the manner provided in paragraph 15 of the Notes. The effect of such notice shall be as set forth in such paragraph 15. 

(d) Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered with, if the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent
so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the holder thereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and the


  
 14 








 
Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the holder of such Note without service charge, a new registered Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as
requested by such holder, and as permitted by Section 1(d) of this Agreement, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. 

8. Delivery of Certain Information. At any time when the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, upon the request of a holder of a Note or beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Issuer shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished Rule 144A Information (as defined below) to such holder, or to a prospective purchaser of such
Note or interest designated by such holder, in order to permit compliance by such holder with Rule 144A under the Act in connection with the resale of such Note by such holder. “Rule 144A Information” shall be such information as is
specified pursuant to paragraph (d)(4) of Rule 144A (or any successor provision thereto), as such provisions (or successor provision) may be amended from time to time. 

9. Conditions of Fiscal Agent’s Obligations. The Fiscal Agent accepts its obligations herein set forth upon the terms and
conditions hereof, including the following, to all of which the Issuer agrees and all of which are applicable to the Notes and the holders from time to time thereof: 

(a) Compensation and Indemnity. The Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to such compensation as agreed from time to time in writing with the
Issuer for all services rendered by it, and the Issuer agrees promptly to pay such compensation and to reimburse the Fiscal Agent for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection
with or arising out of its services hereunder, or the issuance of the Notes and their offering and sale. The Issuer also agrees to indemnify the Fiscal Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, damages, claim, liability or expense,
incurred without bad faith, negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, arising out of or in connection with its acting as Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent hereunder, as well as the reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by the
Fiscal Agent of defending against any claim of liability in the premises. The Issuer undertakes to pursue all of its payment rights under each of the Secured Note dated as of March 24, 2010, from Ambac Assurance Corporation to the Issuer and
the Cooperation Agreement, dated as of March 24, 2010, by and between Ambac Assurance Corporation and the Issuer against Ambac Assurance Corporation for any amounts due to the Fiscal Agent pursuant to this Agreement. The obligations of the
Issuer under this Section 9(a) shall survive payment of all the Notes, the resignation or removal of the Fiscal Agent or the termination of this Agreement. 

(b) Agency. In acting under this Agreement and in connection with the Notes, the Fiscal Agent is acting solely as agent of the Issuer
and does not assume any responsibility for the correctness of the recitals in the Notes (except for the correctness of the statement in its certificate of authentication thereon) or any obligation or relationship of agency or trust, for or with any
of the owners or holders of the Notes, except that all funds held by the Fiscal Agent for the payment of principal of and any interest on the Notes, to the extent permitted under the Payment Restrictions, shall be held in trust for such owners or
holders, as the case may be, as set forth herein and in the Notes; provided, however, that monies held in respect of the Notes 

  
 15 








 
remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal and such interest shall have become payable in accordance with the Payment Restrictions (whether at the Scheduled Maturity Date or
otherwise) and monies sufficient therefor shall have been duly made available for payment shall, together with any interest made available for payment thereon, be repaid to the Issuer. Upon such repayment, the aforesaid trust with respect to the
Notes shall terminate and all liability of the Fiscal Agent and Paying Agents with respect to such funds shall thereupon cease. 
 (c)
Advice of Counsel. The Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent appointed by the Issuer pursuant to Section 2 hereof may consult with their respective counsel or other independent counsel satisfactory to them (to the
extent such consultation is contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, at the expense of the Issuer), and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by
them hereunder, provided, that such action is without bad faith, negligence, fraud or willful misconduct on its part and in accordance with such advice or opinion. 

(d) Reliance. The Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent appointed by the Issuer pursuant to Section 2 hereof
each shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken or thing suffered by it in reliance upon any Note, notice, direction, consent, certificate (including a certificate of an Authorized Officer delivered to the
Fiscal Agent), affidavit, statement, or other paper or document believed by it, acting without bad faith, negligence, fraud or willful misconduct on its part, to be genuine and to have been passed upon or signed by the proper parties. 

(e) Interest in Notes, etc. The Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent appointed by the Issuer pursuant to
Section 2 hereof and their respective officers, directors and employees may become the owners of, or acquire any interest in, any Notes, with the same rights that they would have if they were not the Fiscal Agent, such other Paying Agent
or Transfer Agent or such person, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Issuer, and may act on, or as depositary, trustee or agent for, any committee or body of holders of Notes or other obligations of the
Issuer, as freely as if they were not the Fiscal Agent, such other Paying Agent or Transfer Agent or such person. 
 (f) Non-Liability
for Interest. Subject to any agreement between the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent to the contrary, the Fiscal Agent shall not be under any liability for interest on monies at any time received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Agreement or the Notes. 
 (g) Certifications. Whenever in the administration of this Agreement the Fiscal Agent shall deem it
desirable that a matter of fact be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Fiscal Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith, negligence, fraud or
willful misconduct on its part, rely upon a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer and delivered to the Fiscal Agent as to such matter of fact. 

(h) No Implied Obligations. The duties and obligations of the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent and the Paying Agent with respect to
matters governed by this Agreement shall be determined solely by the express provisions hereof, and none of the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer 

  
 16 








 
Agent or the Paying Agent shall be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and the Notes, as applicable, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or the Notes against the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent or the Paying Agent and the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent and the Paying Agent shall be protected and incur no liability in
respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder by the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent or the Paying Agent without bad faith, negligence, fraud or willful misconduct on its part. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require
the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent or the Paying Agent to advance or expend their own funds or take any action that may, in their opinion, expose them to any liability unless they receive indemnity satisfactory to them. 

(i) Enforceability of Rights. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Fiscal Agent, including,
without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Fiscal Agent in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other person employed to act hereunder. 

(j) Agents. The Fiscal Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents, attorneys or custodians. 
 (k) Damages. In no event shall the Fiscal Agent be liable, directly or indirectly, for any
special, indirect or consequential damages, even if the Fiscal Agent has been advised of the possibility of such damages. 
 (l)
Recitals. The recitals contained in this Agreement and in the Notes (except the Fiscal Agent’s certificates of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent does not assume any responsibility for the
correctness of the same. The Fiscal Agent does not make any representation (other than with respect to itself) as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or the Notes, except for the Fiscal Agent’s due authorization, execution and
delivery of this Agreement. The Fiscal Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or the proceeds thereof.

 10. Resignation, Removal and Appointment of Successor. 

(a) Fiscal Agent and Paying Agent. The Issuer agrees, for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Notes, that there shall at
all times be a Fiscal Agent hereunder which shall be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or the State of New York, in good standing and having an established place of business in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, until all the Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder (i) shall have been delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancellation or
(ii) have become payable, with the approval of the Commissioner, and monies sufficient to pay the full principal of and any interest remaining unpaid on the Notes shall have been made available for payment and either paid or returned to the
Issuer as provided herein and in such Notes. 
 (b) Resignation and Removal. The Fiscal Agent may at any time resign by giving
written notice to the Issuer of such intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become effective; provided that such date shall not be less than 60 days from the date on which such notice is given,
unless the Issuer agrees to accept shorter notice. The Fiscal Agent hereunder may be removed at any time by the filing with it of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer and specifying such removal and the date when it shall become
effective. Notwithstanding the dates of effectiveness of resignation or removal, as the case may be, to be specified in accordance with the preceding sentences, such resignation or removal shall take effect only upon the appointment by the Issuer,
as hereinafter provided, of a successor Fiscal Agent (which, to qualify as such, shall for all purposes hereunder be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of the State of New York, in
good standing and having and acting through an established place of business in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and having a combined capital and surplus in excess of
$50,000,000) and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor Fiscal Agent. Upon its resignation or removal, the Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to payment by the Issuer pursuant to Section 9 hereof of compensation for services
rendered and to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred hereunder. If a successor Fiscal Agent does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Fiscal Agent provides written notice of its intent to resign or is removed, the
retiring Fiscal Agent at the expense of the Issuer, the Issuer or the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding (as defined in Section 11(d) herein) may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Fiscal Agent. 
 (c) Successors. In case at any time the Fiscal Agent (or any Paying
Agent if such Paying Agent is the only Paying Agent located in a place where, by the terms of the Notes or this Agreement, the Issuer is required to maintain a Paying Agent) shall resign, or shall be removed, or shall become incapable of acting, or
shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consent to the appointment of a receiver of all or any substantial part of its property, or shall
admit in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they severally mature, or if a receiver of it or of all or any substantial part of its property shall be appointed, or if an order of any court shall be entered approving any petition filed
by or against it under the provisions of applicable receivership, bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar legislation, or if any public officer shall 

  
 18 








 
take charge or control of it or of its property or affairs, for the purpose of rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution, a successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may
be, qualified as aforesaid (in the case of the Fiscal Agent), shall be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument in writing, filed with the successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and the predecessor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent,
as the case may be. Upon the appointment as aforesaid of a successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and acceptance by such successor of such appointment, the Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, so succeeded shall
cease to be Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, hereunder. If no successor Fiscal Agent or other Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall have been so appointed by the Issuer and shall have accepted appointment as hereinafter provided,
and, in the case of such other Paying Agent, if such other Paying Agent is the only Paying Agent located in a place where, by the terms of the Notes or this Agreement, the Issuer is required to maintain a Paying Agent, then any holder of a Note who
has been a bona fide holder of a Note for at least six months (which Note, in the case of such other Paying Agent, is referred to in this sentence), on behalf of such holder and all others similarly situated, or the Fiscal Agent, may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor fiscal or paying agent, as the case may be. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to each other Paying Agent of the appointment of a successor Fiscal Agent. 

(d) Acknowledgement. Any successor Fiscal Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and to
the Issuer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder. Upon delivery of such instrument, such successor Fiscal Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts,
immunities, duties and obligations of such predecessor with like effect as if originally named as Fiscal Agent hereunder and all provisions hereof shall be binding on such successor Fiscal Agent. Furthermore, upon delivery of such instrument, such
predecessor, upon payment of its compensation and reimbursement of its disbursements then unpaid, shall thereupon become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over, and such successor Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to receive, all monies,
securities, books, records or other property on deposit with or held by such predecessor as Fiscal Agent hereunder. Upon delivery of such property, such predecessor Fiscal Agent shall become entitled to payment by the Issuer of its compensation and
reimbursement of its disbursements then unpaid from such successor Fiscal Agent. 
 (e) Merger, Consolidation, etc. Any bank or trust
company into which the Fiscal Agent hereunder may be merged, or resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Fiscal Agent shall be a party, or to which the Fiscal Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all the agency
and trust business of the Fiscal Agent; provided that it shall be qualified as aforesaid, shall be the successor Fiscal Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto. 
 11. Meetings and Amendments. 

(a) Calling of Meeting, Notice and Quorum. A meeting of holders of Notes may be called at any time and from time to time to make, give

 19 








 
terms of the Notes or this Agreement as hereinafter provided, and subject to the requirement hereinafter set forth that the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, only with the prior approval of the
Commissioner, modify, amend or supplement this Agreement or the terms of the Notes or give consents or waivers or take other actions with respect thereto. The Fiscal Agent may at any time call a meeting of holders of Notes for any such purpose to be
held at such time and at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York as the Fiscal Agent shall determine. Notice of every meeting of holders of Notes, setting forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the
action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given as provided in the terms of the Notes, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting (provided that, in the case of any meeting to be reconvened
after adjournment for lack of a quorum, such notice shall be so given not less then 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such meeting). In case at any time the Issuer or the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes (as defined in subsection (d) of this Section) shall have requested the Fiscal Agent to call a meeting of the holders of Notes for any such purpose, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action
proposed to be taken at the meeting, the Fiscal Agent shall call such meeting for such purposes by giving notice thereof. 
 To be entitled
to vote at any meeting of holders of Notes, a person shall be a holder of Outstanding Notes or a person duly appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for such a holder. The persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes shall constitute a quorum. The Fiscal Agent may make such reasonable and customary regulations consistent herewith as it shall deem advisable for any meeting of holders of Notes with respect to the proof of the appointment of
proxies in respect of holders of Notes, the record date for determining the registered holders of Notes who are entitled to vote at such meeting (which date shall be designated by the Fiscal Agent and set forth in the notice calling such meeting
hereinabove referred to and which shall be not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to such meeting; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken), the adjournment and chairmanship of such meeting, the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the
right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate. 
 (b) Approval. 

(i) At any meeting of holders of Notes duly called and held as specified above, upon the affirmative vote, in person or by proxy thereunto duly
authorized in writing, of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, or (ii) with the written consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes then Outstanding, in each case (i) or (ii) the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, modify, amend or supplement the terms of the Notes or this Agreement in any way, and the holders of Notes
may make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver (including waiver of future compliance or past failure to perform) or other action provided by this Agreement or the Notes to be made, given or taken by
holders of Notes; provided that no such action, modification, amendment or supplement, however effected, may, without the consent of the holder of each Note affected thereby, (A) change the Scheduled Interest Payment Date (as defined in
the Notes) or Scheduled 

  
 20 








 
Maturity Date of the principal of or any installment of interest on any Note, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Note or the interest rate thereon, (C) change the currency in which,

paragraph 10 of the Notes in a manner adverse to the holders of the Notes, (G) reduce the above-stated percentage of the principal amount of Outstanding Notes, the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or

provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given, (H) reduce the percentage of aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of holders of Notes at which a resolution is adopted, or
(I) change the restrictions on payment of principal of or interest on or redemption payment with respect to the Notes in a manner adverse to the holders of the Notes. 

The Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, without the vote or consent of any holder of Notes, amend
this Agreement or the Notes for the purpose of (a) adding to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the holders of Notes, (b) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, (c) securing the Notes,
(d) evidencing the succession of another entity to the Issuer and the assumption by such successor of the covenants and obligations of the Issuer herein and in the Notes as permitted by this Agreement and the Notes, (e) modifying the
restrictions on, and procedures for, resale and other transfers of the Notes to the extent required by any change in applicable law or regulation, or the interpretation thereof, or in practices relating to the resale or transfer of restricted
securities generally, (f) accommodating the issuance, if any, of Notes in book-entry or certificated form and matters related thereto which do not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, (g) curing any
ambiguity or correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained herein or in the Notes in a manner which does not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, or (h) effecting any amendment which the
Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may determine is necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder. 

It shall not be necessary for the vote or consent of the holders of Notes to approve the particular form of any proposed modification,
amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but it shall be sufficient if such vote or consent shall approve the substance thereof. 

The Fiscal Agent shall receive an opinion of counsel in connection with any amendment or supplement entered into hereunder stating that all
conditions precedent to such amendment or supplement have been fulfilled and that the Fiscal Agent’s entering into such amendment or supplement is authorized and permitted under this Agreement. 

  
 21 








 (c) Binding Nature of Amendments, Notices, Notations, etc. Any instrument given by or on
behalf of any holder of a Note in connection with any consent to or vote for any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be irrevocable once given and shall
be conclusive and binding on all subsequent holders of such Note or any Note issued directly or indirectly in exchange or substitution therefor or in lieu thereof. Any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action taken, made or given in accordance with Section 11(b) hereof shall be conclusive and binding on all holders of Notes, whether or not they have given such consent or cast such vote or
were present at any meeting, and whether or not notation of such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action is made upon the Notes. Notice of any modification or amendment
of, supplement to, or request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action with respect to the Notes or this Agreement (other than for purposes of curing any ambiguity or of curing, correcting or supplementing any
defective provision hereof or thereof) shall be given to each holder of Notes affected thereby, in all cases as provided in the Notes. 

Notes authenticated and delivered after the effectiveness of any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may bear a notation in the form approved by the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer as to any matter provided for in such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action. New Notes modified to conform, in the opinion of the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer, to any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action taken, made or given in accordance with Section 11(b) hereof may be prepared and executed by the Issuer, authenticated by the Fiscal Agent and delivered in exchange for Outstanding Notes. 

(d) “Outstanding” Defined. For purposes of the provisions of this Agreement and the Notes, any Note authenticated and
delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall, as of any date of determination, be deemed to be “Outstanding,” except: 

(i) Notes theretofore cancelled by the Fiscal Agent or delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancellation; 

(ii) Notes which have been called for redemption in accordance with their terms or which have become payable, to the extent
permitted under the Payment Restrictions, at the Scheduled Maturity Date or otherwise, and with respect to which, in each case, monies sufficient to pay the principal thereof and any interest thereon shall have been paid; and 

(iii) Notes paid under Section 12 of the Notes or in lieu of or in substitution for which other Notes shall have
been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Agreement; 
 provided, however, that in determining whether the holders of the requisite
principal amount of Outstanding Notes are present at a meeting of holders of Notes for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment, modification or
supplement hereunder, the principal amount of any Notes that are beneficially owned by the Issuer or any of its Affiliates, or the voting of which the Issuer 

  
 22 








 
or any of its Affiliates has the right to direct with respect to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment, modification or supplement, shall be
disregarded in such calculation (in both the numerator and the denominator). The Fiscal Agent shall incur no liability for failing to disregard any Note owned directly or indirectly by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer in the absence of
actual knowledge of that circumstance by a corporate trust officer of the Fiscal Agent responsible for the administration of this Agreement. 

As used herein, an “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any specified Person means the power to direct the management and policies of
such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing. 

As used herein, “Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture,
association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision thereof, or any other entity of any kind. 

12. Remedies. Holders of Notes may enforce this Agreement or the Notes only in the manner set forth below. 

(a) Acceleration of Maturity. In the event that any state or federal agency shall obtain an order or grant approval (excluding any
Excluded Order) for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation, dissolution, receivership or any similar action of the Issuer or the General Account (including, without limitation, under Chapter 645 of the Wisconsin Statutes), the Notes will upon
the obtaining of such an order or the granting of such approval immediately mature in full without any action on the part of the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes, with payment thereon being subject to the Payment Restrictions, and any
restrictions imposed as a consequence of, or pursuant to, such proceedings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes, in no event shall the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes be entitled to declare the Notes to
immediately mature or otherwise be immediately payable, except that payments approved by the Commissioner but unpaid may become immediately payable in accordance with clause (b) below. 

(b) Failure to Pay or Perform Other Obligations. In the event that the Commissioner approves in whole or in part a payment of any
interest on or principal of, or any redemption payment with respect to, any Notes and the Issuer fails to pay the full amount of such approved payment on the date such amount is scheduled to be paid, such approved amount will be immediately payable
on such date without any action on the part of the Fiscal Agent or any holder of Notes. In the event that the Issuer fails to perform any of its other obligations hereunder or under the Notes (or otherwise abide by any of the other terms hereof or
of the Notes), each holder of the Notes may pursue any available remedy to enforce the performance of any provision of such Notes or this Agreement; provided, however, that such remedy shall in no event include the right to declare the
Notes immediately payable, except for payments approved by the Commissioner, and shall in no circumstances be inconsistent with the provisions of applicable law. A delay or omission by any Note holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing as a
result of the Issuer’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder or under the Notes 

  
 23 








 
(or otherwise abide by any of the other terms hereof or of the Notes) and the continuation thereof shall not impair such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in such
non-performance by the Issuer. To the extent permitted by law, no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy and all remedies are cumulative. 

(c) Rights of Holders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes, the right of any holder of Notes to receive
payment of the principal of and interest on such holder’s Notes on or after the respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates expressed in such Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates, in each case subject to such payment on such dates having received the approval of the Commissioner pursuant to the Payment Restrictions, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
impaired or affected without the consent of such holder. 
 13. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. THE COMMISSIONER’S EXERCISE OF REGULATORY AUTHORITY, INCLUDING APPROVAL OF PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE

TO THE ISSUER UNDER CHAPTER 645 OF THE WISCONSIN STATUTES, THEN TO THAT CASE AND COURT.

 Notices shall be deemed received by the Fiscal Agent only upon actual receipt by the Fiscal
Agent. If the Fiscal Agent shall receive any notice or demand addressed to the Issuer by the holder of a Note, the Fiscal Agent shall promptly forward such notice or demand to the Issuer. 

15. Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 16. Headings. The
section headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

	No. R-            	 	$            

 THE SEGREGATED ACCOUNT OF AMBAC ASSURANCE CORPORATION, a Wisconsin domiciled financial guaranty insurance
corporation (and any successor in interest thereto, the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay, subject to the Payment Restrictions (as defined in paragraph 1 of the reverse side of this Note), to
                    , or registered assigns, the principal sum of
                    United States dollars ($        ) on June 7, 2020 (the “Scheduled
Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon, subject to the Payment Restrictions, including the approval of the Commissioner, from July 19, 2010 or from the most recent Scheduled Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
or duly provided for, annually in arrears on June 7 in each year and on the date the Notes are scheduled to mature, commencing June 7, 2011 (each, a “Scheduled Interest Payment Date”), at the rate of 5.1% per annum,
until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for. Any reference herein to the term “scheduled maturity date” or other date for the payment of principal of the Notes shall include (i) the date, if any, fixed for redemption
thereof in accordance with paragraph 15 hereof and (ii) the date upon which any state or federal agency obtains an order or grants approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer or the General

provided for, on any Scheduled Interest Payment Date shall be paid, in accordance with the terms of the Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to, to the person (the “registered holder”) in whose name this Note (or one or more
predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on May 20 (whether or not a Business Day, as defined herein), as the case may be (each, a “Regular Record Date”), next preceding such Scheduled Interest Payment Date.
Interest on the Notes shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve months of 30 days each. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on such Regular

 FORM OF REVERSE 

1. General. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 5.1% Surplus Notes scheduled to mature on June 7, 2020 of the Issuer
(herein called the “Notes”), unlimited in aggregate principal amount. The Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon have entered into a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2010 (such instrument, as it may be duly amended
from time to time, is herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), which provides for the mechanism for issuing the Notes and, inter alia, sets forth certain duties of the Fiscal Agent in connection therewith. As used
herein, the term “Fiscal Agent” includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement. Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement are on file and available for inspection at the Corporate Trust Office of the Fiscal Agent
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Holders of Notes are referred to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the terms thereof, including those relating to transfer, payment, exchanges and certain other matters. The Fiscal
Agent or any Paying Agent shall also act as Transfer Agent and securities registrar. 
 Capitalized definitional terms used but not
otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of
the Notes are referred to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of such terms. Holders of Notes may enforce the Notes only in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

The Notes are direct and unsecured obligations of the Issuer and, subject to the payment restrictions contained in paragraphs 4 and
10 hereof (the “Payment Restrictions”), are scheduled to mature on June 7, 2020. 
 Any reference herein to the
term “scheduled maturity date” or other date for the payment of principal of the Notes shall include (i) the date, if any, fixed for redemption thereof in accordance with paragraph 15 hereof and (ii) the date upon which
any state or federal agency obtains an order or grants approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer or the General Account (other than any Excluded Order). 

2. Form of Notes. The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons. 

3. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer shall maintain, in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, a Transfer Agent
where Notes may be registered or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer has initially appointed the Fiscal Agent at its Corporate Trust Office as its Transfer Agent. The Issuer shall cause the Transfer Agent to act as a
securities registrar and shall cause to be kept at the office of the Transfer Agent a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and registration of transfers
and exchanges of Notes. The Issuer reserves the right to vary or terminate the appointment of the Transfer Agent or to appoint additional or other Transfer Agents or to approve any change in the office through which any Transfer Agent acts;
provided that there shall at all times be a Transfer Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer shall cause written notice of any resignation, 

  
 A-6 








 
termination or appointment of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent and of any change in the office through which any such Agent shall act to be provided to holders of Notes.

 Subject to the restrictions set forth herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the transfer of a Note is registrable on the
aforementioned register upon surrender of such Note at any Transfer Agent duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer duly executed by, the registered holder thereof or such
holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Upon such surrender of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more new Notes, dated the date of authentication thereof, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount. 

Subject to the restrictions set forth herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, at the option of the registered holder upon request confirmed
in writing, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the office of any Transfer Agent. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the
Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the registered holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Any registration of transfer or exchange shall be effected upon the Issuer being reasonably
satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Note and/or the Fiscal Agency Agreement and such reasonable regulations as the Issuer may from time to time agree
with the Fiscal Agent. 
 Notes may be redeemed by the Issuer, in whole or in part, but only to the extent permitted by the Payment
Restrictions, including the prior approval of the Commissioner, and in accordance with paragraph 15 hereof. In the event of a partial redemption, the Issuer shall not be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the date notice is given identifying the Notes to be redeemed, or (ii) to register the transfer or exchange of any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption. 

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same
debt, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than an exchange in connection with the partial redemption of a Note not involving any registration of a transfer. 

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal
Agent may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

  
 A-7 








 4. Restrictions on Payment. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, any payment of principal of, interest on or any monies owing with respect to this Note, whether at the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date specified herein or otherwise, may be made only with
the prior approval of the Commissioner. If the Commissioner does not approve the making of any payment of principal of or interest on this Note on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, as specified herein, the scheduled
payment date or scheduled maturity date, as the case may be, shall be extended and such payment, together with interest accrued with respect thereto as contemplated by the immediately following two sentences, shall be made by the Issuer on the next
following Business Day (as defined below) on which the Issuer shall have the approval of the Commissioner to make such payment together with such interest. Interest will continue to accrue, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled
payment date or scheduled maturity date, on any such unpaid principal through the actual date of payment at the rate of interest stated on the face hereof. Interest will accrue, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled payment date,
on interest (or any portion thereof) with respect to which the scheduled payment date has been extended, during the period of such extension, at the rate of interest per annum applicable to principal hereunder. If the Commissioner approves a payment
of principal of or interest on the Notes in an amount that is less than the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes then scheduled to be paid in respect of the Notes, payment of such partial amount shall be made pro rata among Note
holders. 
 (b) Any payment of principal of or interest on any Note as to which the approval of the Commissioner has been obtained and which
is not punctually paid or duly provided for on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, as set forth herein (such payment being referred to as an “Unpaid Amount”), subject to the provisions of section
14(b), will forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder of this Note on the relevant record date designated herein, and such Unpaid Amount, together with interest thereon accrued at the rate of interest per annum applicable to
principal hereunder, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date, will instead be payable to the registered holder of this Note on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix the
special record date and payment date for the payment of any Unpaid Amount. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer shall mail to each holder of the Notes and the Fiscal Agent a notice that states the special record date, payment
date and amount of interest or principal to be paid. On the payment date set forth in such notice, the Paying Agent shall pay the amount of interest or principal to be so paid to each holder of the Notes in the manner set forth in
Section 4(a) of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 
 5. Payment. (a) For so long as the Fiscal Agent is acting as a
Paying Agent hereunder, the Issuer, subject to the Payment Restrictions, shall provide to the Fiscal Agent, or such other Paying Agent if the Fiscal Agent is no longer acting as a Paying Agent, in immediately available funds on or prior to 11:00
a.m., New York time, on each date on which a payment of principal of or any interest on this Note is payable, as set forth herein, such amounts, in U.S. dollars, as are necessary (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the
purpose) to make such payment, and the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent from funds so provided to it to make or cause to be made payment of the principal of and any interest, as the case may be, on this Note as set forth herein
and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. Payments of principal of or any interest on the Notes will be made (i) by wire 

  
 A-8 








 
transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank if such registered holder gives notice to the Fiscal Agent, not less than 15 days (or such fewer days as
the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the date on which such payments are scheduled to be made, of the account to which payment is to be made or (ii) if no such notice is given, by mailing a check to the payee at the
address reflected in the securities register maintained pursuant to Section 6 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. Unless the designation of the payee’s account to which payment is to be made is revoked, any such designation made by such
holder with respect to such Notes shall remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Notes payable to such holder. The Issuer shall pay any reasonable administrative costs in connection with making any such payments. The
Fiscal Agent shall arrange directly with any other Paying Agent who may have been appointed by the Issuer pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement for the payment, subject to the Payment Restrictions, from
funds so paid by the Issuer of the principal of and any interest on this Note. Any monies held in respect of this Note remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal and such interest shall have become payable in accordance with
the Payment Restrictions (whether at the Scheduled Maturity Date or otherwise) and monies sufficient therefor shall have been duly made available for payment shall, together with any interest made available for payment thereon, be repaid to the
Issuer and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent with respect thereto shall cease, without, however, limiting in any way any obligation the Issuer may have to pay the principal of and interest on this Note, subject to the Payment
Restrictions. To the extent that the Fiscal Agent is not acting as Paying Agent, references to the Fiscal Agent in this Section 5(a) shall include the Paying Agent in such capacity. 

(b) In any case where the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date of any Note shall be at any place of payment a day on which
banking institutions are not carrying out transactions in U.S. dollars or are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close, then payment of principal or interest need not be made on such date at such place but may be made on the next
succeeding day at such place which is not a day on which banking institutions in the applicable jurisdiction are not carrying out transactions in U.S. dollars or are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close (a “Business
Day”), with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, and no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment for the period after such date, if such payment is so made. 

6. Duties and Taxes. The Issuer shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, which may be imposed by the United States of America or
any governmental entity or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority of or in the foregoing with respect to the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the initial issuance of this Note. All payments will be made by the Issuer without withholding or
deduction for or on account for any present or future tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge of whatever nature imposed or levied by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such
withholding or deduction is required by law. The Issuer shall not be required to make any additional payment with respect to any withholding or deduction so required. 

7. Covenants. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any amount remains unpaid on any of the Notes, 

  
 A-9 








 (a) Except with respect to transactions covered by paragraph 8 hereof, the Issuer will do
or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, material rights (charter and statutory) and material franchises pursuant to the provisions of the Wisconsin Insurers Rehabilitation and
Liquidation Act; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Rehabilitator or the Issuer’s Board of Directors, as applicable, shall determine that the preservation
thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and that the Issuer has used its reasonable best efforts to not disadvantage in any material respect the holders of the Notes. 

(b) The Issuer will not be or become an open-end investment company, unit investment trust, face-amount certificate company or any other
entity that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). 

(c) (i) While the Issuer is subject to the Proceeding, the Rehabilitator will seek to, and (ii) while the Issuer is not subject to the
Proceeding, the Issuer shall use its best efforts (provided that such best efforts do not require the Issuer to raise additional capital or indebtedness) to, obtain the approval of the Commissioner for the payment by the Issuer of interest on
and principal of the Notes on the scheduled payment dates or scheduled maturity dates thereof, and, in the event any such approval has not been obtained for any such payment at or prior to the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date
thereof, as the case may be, to continue to use its best efforts (provided that such best efforts do not require the Issuer to raise additional capital or indebtedness) to obtain such approval promptly thereafter. Not less than 45 days prior to the
scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof (excluding any such scheduled maturity date which arises as a result of the obtaining of an order or the granting of approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution
of the Issuer), the Issuer will seek the approval of the Commissioner to make each payment of interest on and principal of the Notes. In addition, the Issuer shall notify in writing or cause to be notified in writing each holder of the Notes and the
Fiscal Agent no later than five Business Days prior to the scheduled payment date for interest on or the scheduled maturity date for principal of any Note (excluding any such scheduled maturity date which arises as a result of the obtaining of an
order or the granting of approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer) in the event that the Commissioner has not then approved the making of any such payment on such scheduled payment date or such
scheduled maturity date, and thereafter, if such payment has been approved by the Commissioner, shall promptly notify in writing or cause to be notified in writing each holder of the Notes and the Fiscal Agent of such approval and of the fact that,
notwithstanding such approval, the Issuer shall have failed to make any such payment on any such scheduled payment date or such scheduled maturity date. 

(d) For any amounts due and payable under the Notes that are approved by the Commissioner in accordance with Section 4(a) of the
Fiscal Agency Agreement and which are due and payable under the Secured Note dated as of March 24, 2010, from Ambac Assurance Corporation to the Issuer (the “Secured Note”) or the Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement,
dated as of March 24, 2010, by and between Ambac Assurance Corporation and the Issuer (the “Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement”), as the case may be, the Issuer undertakes to demand payment under the Secured Note or
the Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement, as the case may be, against Ambac Assurance Corporation. 

  
 A-10 








 8. Merger or Consolidation. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any
amounts remain unpaid on any of the Notes, the Issuer may merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation or sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to any person, firm or corporation, if
(i) (A) in the case of a merger or consolidation, the Issuer is the surviving corporation or (B) in the case of a merger or consolidation where the Issuer is not the surviving corporation and in the case of any such sale, conveyance,
transfer or other disposition, the successor corporation is either Ambac Assurance Corporation (or its successor) or a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof and such corporation
expressly assumes by supplemental fiscal agency agreement all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, (ii) at the time of any such merger or consolidation, or such sale, conveyance, transfer or other
disposition, the Issuer shall not have failed to make payment of interest on or principal of, or any redemption payment with respect to, the Notes after having received the Commissioner’s prior approval to make such payment and (iii) the
Issuer has delivered to the Fiscal Agent an officer’s certificate stating that such merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition complies with this paragraph and that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to such transaction have been complied with. In the event of the assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the Issuer as provided in clause (i)(B) of the immediately preceding sentence, such successor corporation
shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer hereunder and under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and all such obligations of the Issuer shall terminate. 

9. ERISA. No employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”), or plan or other arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any entity whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan
assets” of such employee benefit plans or arrangements (each, a “Plan”), or governmental, church or foreign plan subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. law that is substantially similar to the provisions of
Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), and no person acting on behalf of or investing “plan assets” of a Plan or a plan subject to a Similar Law, may acquire this Note, unless the
acquisition and holding of the Note is exempt under one or more of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemptions 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14 (or any amendment thereof) or Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code or
another applicable exemption from the prohibitions under Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code or, in the case of a governmental, church or foreign plan subject to Similar Law, such acquisition and holding do not violate any
Similar Law. The acquisition by any person of this Note shall constitute a representation by such person to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent that either (i) such person is not a Plan or a plan subject to Similar Law and is not acquiring the Note
on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan or any plan subject to Similar Law or (ii) its acquisition and holding of the Note or any interest therein are covered under an applicable exemption from the prohibitions under
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code. The restrictions on acquisitions of the Notes set forth in this paragraph 9 are in addition to those otherwise set forth in Section 6 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and
under applicable law or, in the case of a plan subject to Similar Law, do not violate such Similar Law. 
 10. Subordination.
(a) The Issuer agrees, and each Note holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this paragraph, to the prior payment in full
of all Indebtedness, Policy Claims and Prior Claims (each as hereinafter defined). 

  
 A-11 








 (b) Upon any distribution to creditors of the Issuer in any rehabilitation, liquidation,
conservation or dissolution or similar proceeding relating to the Issuer or its property, the priority of claims of Note holders shall be determined in accordance with Section 645.68 of the Wisconsin Statutes (together with any successor
provision, and as may be hereafter amended from time to time, “Section 645.68”). In a proceeding commenced under Chapter 645 of the Wisconsin Statutes, claims for interest on, principal of, or any redemption payment with respect to,
the Notes constitute Class 10 claims under Section 645.68, as currently in effect. If the Commissioner approves a payment of principal of or interest on the Notes in an amount that is less than the full amount of principal of and interest on
the Notes then scheduled to be paid in respect of the Notes, payment of such partial amount shall be made pro rata among Note holders as their interests may appear. 

(c) If a distribution is made to Note holders that, because of this paragraph, should not have been made to them, the Note holders who receive
the distribution shall pay it over to the Issuer. 
 (d) The Issuer shall promptly notify the Fiscal Agent and the Paying Agent of any facts
known to the Issuer that would cause a payment of principal of or interest on the Notes to violate paragraph 10(b). 
 (e) This paragraph
defines the relative rights of Note holders, on the one hand, and holders of any other claims, on the other hand. Nothing in this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement shall (i) impair, as between the Issuer and Note holders, the
obligation of the Issuer which is, subject to the Payment Restrictions, absolute and unconditional to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms; (ii) affect the relative rights of Note holders and
creditors of the Issuer, other than holders of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims; or (iii) prevent the Fiscal Agent or any Note holder from exercising any available remedies upon a breach by the Issuer of its obligations
hereunder, subject to the rights of holders of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims to receive distributions otherwise payable to Note holders. 

(f) No right of any holder of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims to enforce the subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Issuer or by its failure to comply with the terms of this Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

(g) Each holder of Notes, by acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary
or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this paragraph and appoints the Fiscal Agent its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

As used herein, “Indebtedness” of the Issuer shall mean (i) all existing or future indebtedness of the Issuer for
borrowed money; (ii) all existing or future indebtedness for borrowed money of other persons, the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer; (iii) all existing or future obligations of the Issuer under any agreement
obligating the Issuer to cause 

  
 A-12 








 
another person to maintain a minimum level of net worth, or otherwise to ensure the solvency of such person; and (iv) all other claims or amounts owed, to the extent that the payment
of principal of and interest on, or any redemption payment with respect to, the Notes would be required by law to be subordinated to the prior payment of any such claim or amount in the event of a distribution of claims pursuant to
Section 645.68. Any indebtedness of the Issuer, which, by its express terms or other contract, is subordinated in right of payment to, or ranks equally with, the Notes shall not constitute Indebtedness. Any other surplus or contribution notes
or similar obligations of the Issuer shall not constitute Indebtedness and will rank pari passu with, or be subordinated to, the Notes. Any surplus or contribution notes or similar obligations of Ambac Assurance Corporation will rank pari
passu with the Notes unless the terms thereof expressly state that such notes are subordinated to the Notes. 
 As used herein,
“Policy Claims” shall mean all existing or future claims of policyowners, beneficiaries and insureds arising from and within the coverage of, and not in excess of the applicable limits of, any and all existing or future policies,
endorsements, riders and other contracts of insurance, annuity contracts (including, without limitation, guaranteed investment contracts and funding agreements) issued, assumed or renewed by the Issuer on or prior to the date hereof or hereafter
created, all claims under separate account agreements to the extent such claims are not fully discharged by the assets held by the Issuer in the applicable separate accounts and all claims of any guaranty corporation or association of the State of
Wisconsin or any other jurisdiction against the Issuer. 
 As used herein, “Prior Claims” shall mean all other claims
against the Issuer, which, in the event of a rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation, dissolution or similar proceeding relating to the Issuer pursuant to Section 645.68, would have priority over claims with respect to the Notes. Under
Section 645.68 as currently in effect, such other claims include: (i) costs and expenses of administration during conservation, rehabilitation, liquidation or similar proceedings, including but not limited to actual and necessary
costs of preserving or recovering the assets of the insurer, compensation for all services rendered in the liquidation; necessary filing fees, fees and mileage payable to witnesses, and reasonable attorney fees; (ii) all claims under
policies for losses incurred, including third party claims and federal, state and local government claims, except the first $200 of losses otherwise payable to any claimant under this clause (ii) other than the federal government;
(iii) claims of the federal government not included under clause (ii), interest at the legal rate compounded annually on all claims in the class under this clause (iii), and on all claims of the federal government in the
class under clause (ii), from the date of the petition for liquidation or the date on which the claim becomes due, whichever is later, until the date on which the dividend is declared; (iv) claims against the Issuer that are not
under policies and that are for liability for bodily injury or for injury to or destruction of tangible property; (v) debts due to employees (with the exception of officers) for services performed, not to exceed $1,000 to each employee
which have been earned within one year before the filing of the petition for liquidation, which shall be in lieu of any other similar priority authorized by law as to wages or compensation of employees, provided, however, that if there are no claims
of the federal government, the claims in clause (v) have priority over all claims under clauses (ii) to (xi); (vi) claims under non-assessable policies for unearned premiums and other premium refunds and
the first $200 of loss excepted by the deductible provision under clause (ii); (vii) all other claims, including claims of any state or local government, not falling within other clauses and claims, including those of any state or
local governmental body, for a penalty or forfeiture, 

  
 A-13 








 
but only to the extent of the pecuniary loss sustained from the act, transaction or proceeding out of which the penalty or forfeiture arose, with reasonable and actual costs occasioned thereby;
(viii) claims based solely on judgments; (ix) interest at the legal rate compounded annually on all claims in the classes under clauses (i) to (viii), except for claims of the federal government in the
classes under clauses (ii) and (iii), from the date of the petition for liquidation or the date on which the claim becomes due, whichever is later, until the date on which the dividend is declared; and (x) pursuant to
subdivision (8) of Section 645.68, the remaining claims or portions of claims not already paid, with interest calculated in accordance with clause (viii). 

11. Delivery of Certain Information. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any amount remains unpaid on any of the
Notes, the Issuer shall, in accordance with Rule 144A, comply with the terms of the agreements set forth in Section 8 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

12. Mutilation, Destruction, Loss, etc. In case this Note shall become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer will
execute and upon the Issuer’s request the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver a new Note, having a number not contemporaneously outstanding, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal amount, registered in
the same manner, bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on this Note, in exchange and substitution for this Note (upon surrender and cancellation thereof if mutilated or defaced) or in lieu of and substitution for this Note.
In the case where this Note is destroyed, lost or stolen, the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by it to save it harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or
theft of this Note, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer reasonable satisfactory evidence of the destruction, loss or theft of this Note and of the ownership thereof; provided, however, that if the registered holder hereof
is, in the reasonable judgment of the Issuer, an institution of recognized responsibility, such holder’s written agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory for the issuance of a new Note in lieu of and substitution for this Note.
The Fiscal Agent shall authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same only upon written request or authorization of the Issuer. Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require the payment by the
registered holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover fees and expenses connected therewith. In case this Note has matured or is about to mature and shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, subject to the
Payment Restrictions, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except if this Note is mutilated or defaced) upon compliance by the registered holder with the provisions of this
paragraph 12 as hereinabove set forth. 
 13. Amendments. Section 11 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, which Section is
hereby incorporated mutatis mutandis by reference herein, provides that, with certain exceptions as therein provided and with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
Outstanding or by written consent of such percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal Agency
Agreement or the terms of the Notes or may give consents or waivers or take other actions with respect thereto. Any such modification, amendment, supplement, consent, waiver or other action shall be conclusive and binding on the holder of this Note
and on all future holders of this Note 

  
 A-14 








 
and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation thereof is made upon this Note. The Fiscal Agency Agreement
and the terms of the Notes may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, be modified or amended by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent, without the consent of any holders of Notes, for the purpose of (a) adding to the covenants of the Issuer
for the benefit of the holders of Notes, or (b) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, or (c) securing the Notes, or (d) evidencing the succession of another corporation to the Issuer and the assumption by such
successor of the covenants and obligations of the Issuer herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement as permitted by the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, or (e) modifying the restrictions on, and procedures for, resale and other transfers
of the Notes to the extent required by any change in applicable law or regulation (or the interpretation thereof) or in practices relating to the resale or transfer of restricted securities generally, or (f) accommodating the issuance, if any,
of Notes in book-entry or certificated form and matters related thereto which do not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, or (g) curing any ambiguity or correcting or supplementing any defective provision
contained herein or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement in a manner which does not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, or (h) effecting any amendment which the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may determine is
necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder, to all of which each holder of any Note, by acceptance thereof, consents. 

14. Remedies. Holders of Notes may enforce the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes only in the manner set forth below. 

(a) In the event that any state or federal agency shall obtain an order or grant approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or
dissolution of the Issuer (other than an Excluded Order), the Notes will upon the obtaining of such an order or the granting of such approval immediately mature in full without any action on the part of the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes,
with payment thereon being subject to the Payment Restrictions, and any restrictions imposed as a consequence of, or pursuant to, such proceedings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement, in no event shall
the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes be entitled to declare the Notes to immediately mature or otherwise be immediately payable. 

(b) In the event that the Commissioner approves in whole or in part a payment of any interest on or principal of, or any redemption payment
with respect to, any Notes and the Issuer fails to pay the full amount of such approved payment on the date such amount is scheduled to be paid, such approved amount will be immediately payable on such date without any action on the part of the
Fiscal Agent or any holder of Notes. In the event that the Issuer fails to perform any of its other obligations hereunder or under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, each holder of the Notes may pursue any available remedy to enforce the performance of
any provision of such Notes or the Fiscal Agency Agreement; provided, however, that such remedy shall in no event include the right to declare the Notes immediately payable, and shall in no circumstances be inconsistent with the
provisions of applicable law. A delay or omission by any Note holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing as a result of the Issuer’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder or under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the continuation
thereof shall not impair such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in such non-performance by the Issuer. To the extent permitted by law, no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy and all remedies are cumulative. 

  
 A-15 








 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the right of
any holder of Notes to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such holder’s Notes on or after the respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates expressed in such Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or after such respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates, in each case subject to such payment on such dates having received the approval of the Commissioner pursuant to the Payment Restrictions, including the approval of
the Commissioner, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the holder. 
 15. Optional
Redemption. (a) Subject to the Payment Restrictions, including the prior approval of the Commissioner, the Notes are subject to redemption, as a whole or in part, at the option of the Issuer at any time and from time to time, with no less
than 30 and no more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the holder of the Note, at a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus any accrued but
unpaid interest (including interest on interest); provided, that the Issuer shall not redeem any Notes unless it also redeems a pro rata amount of any other surplus notes of the Issuer outstanding at the time of such redemption.
The Notes may not be redeemed at the option of any Note holder. Notice of any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 15(a) will be given to holders of the Notes as set forth below. Interest installments due on this Note on or prior to a
redemption date will be payable to the holder of this Note of record at the close of business on the relevant record date, all as provided in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

(b) In the case of any partial redemption of Notes, each Outstanding Note shall be redeemed pro rata; provided that if at
the time of redemption such Notes are registered as a Global Note, the U.S. Depositary for such Global Note shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed held by each holder of a beneficial
interest in such Global Note. 
 (c) Notices to redeem Notes shall be given to holders of Notes in writing mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, to each holder of registered Notes, or portions thereof, so to be redeemed, at such holder’s address as it appears in the securities register. Such notice will be given once not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days prior to the date
fixed for redemption. If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to give notice to the holders of Notes in the manner prescribed herein, then such notification in lieu thereof
as shall be made by the Issuer or by the Fiscal Agent on behalf of and at the instruction of the Issuer shall constitute sufficient provision of such notice, if such notification shall, so far as may be practicable, approximate the terms and
conditions of the mailed notice in lieu of which it is given. Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of a Note shall affect the sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Notes. Notices to
redeem Notes shall specify the date fixed for redemption, the Redemption Price or the manner of calculation thereof, the place or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to be redeemed (or portion
thereof in the case of a partial redemption), that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption (unless the date of redemption is a Scheduled Interest Payment Date) will be paid as specified in 


  
 A-16 








 
said notice, and that on and after said date interest thereon will cease to accrue if the Notes are so redeemed. In addition, in the case of a partial redemption, such notice shall specify the
Notes called for redemption and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to remain Outstanding after the redemption. 
 (d) If notice of
redemption has been given in the manner set forth in paragraph 15(c) hereof, the Notes so to be redeemed shall be payable in full on the date specified in such notice and upon presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or
places specified in such notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the places and in the manner and currency herein specified and at the Redemption Price. From and after the redemption date, if monies for the redemption of Notes
called for redemption shall have been made available at the Corporate Trust Office of the Fiscal Agent for redemption on the redemption date, the Notes called for redemption shall cease to bear interest, and the only right of the holders with
respect to such Notes or portion thereof being redeemed shall be to receive payment of the Redemption Price. If monies for the redemption of the Notes are not made available for payment until after the redemption date, the Notes called for
redemption shall not cease to bear interest until such monies have been so made available. 
 (e) Any Note which is to be redeemed only in
part shall be surrendered with, if the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the holder thereof or such
holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the holder of such Note without service charge, a new registered Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as
requested by such holder, and as permitted by Section 1(d) of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. 

16. Obligations Not Impaired. No reference herein to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and no provision of this Note or of the Fiscal Agency
Agreement shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, subject to the Payment Restrictions, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

17. GOVERNING LAW. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. THE
COMMISSIONER’S EXERCISE OF REGULATORY AUTHORITY, INCLUDING APPROVAL OF PAYMENTS ON THIS NOTE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN (OR, IF THE COMMISSIONER IS NO LONGER THE PRIMARY REGULATOR
OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE ISSUER, THE LAW OF SUCH JURISDICTION OF THE PRIMARY REGULATOR OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE ISSUER), AND THE PARTIES TO THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT AND HOLDERS OF THIS NOTE SHALL SUBMIT ANY DISPUTES RELATED TO
THE EXERCISE OF SUCH REGULATORY AUTHORITY TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE CIRCUIT COURT IN DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN, OR, SO LONG AS ANY PROCEEDING IS PENDING IN WISCONSIN AS TO THE ISSUER UNDER CHAPTER 645 OF THE WISCONSIN STATUTES, THEN TO THAT
CASE AND COURT.

Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of                      United States dollars
($            ), or such other amount (not to exceed [—] dollars ($[—]) when taken
together with all of the Issuer’s Notes issued and outstanding in definitive certificated form or in the form of another Global Note) as may from time to time represent the principal amount of the Issuer’s Notes in respect of which
beneficial interests are held through the U.S. Depositary in the form of a [Restricted] [Temporary] [Permanent] [Regulation S] Global Note, on June 7, 2020 (the “Scheduled Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon, subject

 FORM OF REVERSE 

1. General. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 5.1% Surplus Notes scheduled to mature on June 7, 2020 of the Issuer
(herein called the “Notes”), unlimited in aggregate principal amount. The Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon have entered into a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2010 (such instrument, as it may be duly amended
from time to time, is herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), which provides for the mechanism for issuing the Notes and, inter alia, sets forth certain duties of the Fiscal Agent in connection therewith. As used
herein, the term “Fiscal Agent” includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement. Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement are on file and available for inspection at the Corporate Trust Office of the Fiscal Agent
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Holders of Notes are referred to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the terms thereof, including those relating to transfer, payment, exchanges and certain other matters. The Fiscal
Agent or any Paying Agent shall also act as Transfer Agent and securities registrar. 
 Capitalized definitional terms used but not
otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of
the Notes are referred to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of such terms. Holders of Notes may enforce the Notes only in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

The Notes are direct and unsecured obligations of the Issuer and, subject to the payment restrictions contained in paragraphs 4 and
10 hereof (the “Payment Restrictions”), are scheduled to mature on June 7, 2020. 
 Any reference herein to the
term “scheduled maturity date” or other date for the payment of principal of the Notes shall include (i) the date, if any, fixed for redemption thereof in accordance with paragraph 15 hereof and (ii) the date upon which
any state or federal agency obtains an order or grants approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer or the General Account (other than any Excluded Order). 

2. Form of Notes. The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form without coupons. 

3. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer shall maintain, in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, a Transfer Agent
where Notes may be registered or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer has initially appointed the Fiscal Agent at its Corporate Trust Office as its Transfer Agent. The Issuer shall cause the Transfer Agent to act as a
securities registrar and shall cause to be kept at the office of the Transfer Agent a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and registration of transfers
and exchanges of Notes. The Issuer reserves the right to vary or terminate the appointment of the Transfer Agent or to appoint additional or other Transfer Agents or to approve any change in the office through which any Transfer Agent acts;
provided that there shall at all times be a Transfer Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer shall cause written notice of any resignation, termination or appointment of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent
or Transfer Agent and of any change in the office through which any such Agent shall act to be provided to holders of Notes. 

  
 B-7 








 Subject to the restrictions set forth herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the transfer of
a Note is registrable on the aforementioned register upon surrender of such Note at any Transfer Agent duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer duly executed by, the
registered holder thereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Upon such surrender of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, dated the date of authentication thereof, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount. 

Subject to the restrictions set forth herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, at the option of the registered holder upon request confirmed
in writing, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the office of any Transfer Agent. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the
Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the registered holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Any registration of transfer or exchange shall be effected upon the Issuer being reasonably
satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Note and/or the Fiscal Agency Agreement and such reasonable regulations as the Issuer may from time to time agree
with the Fiscal Agent. 
 Notes may be redeemed by the Issuer, in whole or in part, but only to the extent permitted by the Payment
Restrictions, including the prior approval of the Commissioner, and in accordance with paragraph 15 hereof. In the event of a partial redemption, the Issuer shall not be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange any
Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the date notice is given identifying the Notes to be redeemed, or (ii) to register the transfer or exchange of any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption.

 All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same
debt, and entitled to the same benefits, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than an exchange in connection with the partial redemption of a Note not involving any registration of a transfer. 

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal
Agent may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

  
 B-8 








 4. Restrictions on Payment. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
herein or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, any payment of principal of, interest on or any monies owing with respect to this Note, whether at the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date specified herein or otherwise, may be made only with
the prior approval of the Commissioner. If the Commissioner does not approve the making of any payment of principal of or interest on this Note on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, as specified herein, the scheduled
payment date or scheduled maturity date, as the case may be, shall be extended and such payment, together with interest accrued with respect thereto as contemplated by the immediately following two sentences, shall be made by the Issuer on the next
following Business Day (as defined below) on which the Issuer shall have the approval of the Commissioner to make such payment together with such interest. Interest will continue to accrue, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled
payment date or scheduled maturity date, on any such unpaid principal through the actual date of payment at the rate of interest stated on the face hereof. Interest will accrue, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled payment date,
on interest (or any portion thereof) with respect to which the scheduled payment date has been extended, during the period of such extension, at the rate of interest per annum applicable to principal hereunder. If the Commissioner approves a payment
of principal of or interest on the Notes in an amount that is less than the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes then scheduled to be paid in respect of the Notes, payment of such partial amount shall be made pro rata among Note
holders. 
 (b) Any payment of principal of or interest on any Note as to which the approval of the Commissioner has been obtained and which
is not punctually paid or duly provided for on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, as set forth herein (such payment being referred to as an “Unpaid Amount”), subject to the provisions of section 14(b),
will forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder of this Note on the relevant record date designated herein, and such Unpaid Amount, together with interest thereon accrued at the rate of interest per annum applicable to principal
hereunder, compounded on each anniversary of the original scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date, will instead be payable to the registered holder of this Note on a subsequent special record date. The Issuer shall fix the special record
date and payment date for the payment of any Unpaid Amount. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer shall mail to each holder of the Notes and the Fiscal Agent a notice that states the special record date, payment date and amount
of interest or principal to be paid. On the payment date set forth in such notice, the Paying Agent shall pay the amount of interest or principal to be so paid to each holder of the Notes in the manner set forth in Section 4(a) of the
Fiscal Agency Agreement. 
 5. Payment. (a) For so long as the Fiscal Agent is acting as a Paying Agent hereunder, the Issuer,
subject to the Payment Restrictions, shall provide to the Fiscal Agent, or such other Paying Agent if the Fiscal Agent is no longer acting as a Paying Agent, in immediately available funds on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York time, on each date on
which a payment of principal of or any interest on this Note is payable, as set forth herein, such amounts, in U.S. dollars, as are necessary (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to make such payment, and
the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent from funds so provided to it to make or cause to be made payment of the principal of and any interest, as the case may be, on this Note as set forth herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement.
Payments of principal of or any interest on the Notes will be made (i) by wire 

  
 B-9 








 
transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank if such registered holder gives notice to the Fiscal Agent, not less than 15 days (or such fewer days as
the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the date on which such payments are scheduled to be made, of the account to which payment is to be made or (ii) if no such notice is given, by mailing a check to the payee at the
address reflected in the securities register maintained pursuant to Section 6 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. Unless the designation of the payee’s account to which payment is to be made is revoked, any such designation made by such
holder with respect to such Notes shall remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Notes payable to such holder. The Issuer shall pay any reasonable administrative costs in connection with making any such payments. The
Fiscal Agent shall arrange directly with any other Paying Agent who may have been appointed by the Issuer pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement for the payment, subject to the Payment Restrictions, from
funds so paid by the Issuer of the principal of and any interest on this Note. Any monies held in respect of this Note remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal and such interest shall have become payable in accordance with
the Payment Restrictions (whether at the Scheduled Maturity Date or otherwise) and monies sufficient therefor shall have been duly made available for payment shall, together with any interest made available for payment thereon, be repaid to the
Issuer and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent with respect thereto shall cease, without, however, limiting in any way any obligation the Issuer may have to pay the principal of and interest on this Note, subject to the Payment
Restrictions. To the extent that the Fiscal Agent is not acting as Paying Agent, references to the Fiscal Agent in this Section 5(a) shall include the Paying Agent in such capacity. 

(b) In any case where the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date of any Note shall be at any place of payment a day on which
banking institutions are not carrying out transactions in U.S. dollars or are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close, then payment of principal or interest need not be made on such date at such place but may be made on the next
succeeding day at such place which is not a day on which banking institutions in the applicable jurisdiction are not carrying out transactions in U.S. dollars or are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close (a “Business
Day”), with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof, and no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment for the period after such date, if such payment is so made. 

6. Duties and Taxes. The Issuer shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, which may be imposed by the United States of America or
any governmental entity or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority of or in the foregoing with respect to the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the initial issuance of this Note. All payments will be made by the Issuer without withholding or
deduction for or on account for any present or future tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge of whatever nature imposed or levied by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such
withholding or deduction is required by law. The Issuer shall not be required to make any additional payment with respect to any withholding or deduction so required. 

7. Covenants. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any amount remains unpaid on any of the Notes, 

  
 B-10 








 (a) Except with respect to transactions covered by paragraph 8 hereof, the Issuer will do
or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, material rights (charter and statutory) and material franchises pursuant to the provisions of the Wisconsin Insurers Rehabilitation and
Liquidation Act; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Rehabilitator or the Issuer’s Board of Directors, as applicable, shall determine that the preservation
thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer and that the Issuer has used its reasonable best efforts to not disadvantage in any material respect the holders of the Notes. 

(b) The Issuer will not be or become an open-end investment company, unit investment trust, face-amount certificate company or any other
entity that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). 

(c) (i) While the Issuer is subject to the Proceeding, the Rehabilitator will seek to, and (ii) while the Issuer is not subject to the
Proceeding, the Issuer shall use its best efforts (provided that such best efforts do not require the Issuer to raise additional capital or indebtedness) to, obtain the approval of the Commissioner for the payment by the Issuer of interest on
and principal of the Notes on the scheduled payment dates or scheduled maturity dates thereof, and, in the event any such approval has not been obtained for any such payment at or prior to the scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date
thereof, as the case may be, to continue to use its best efforts (provided that such best efforts do not require the Issuer to raise additional capital or indebtedness) to obtain such approval promptly thereafter. Not less than 45 days prior to the
scheduled payment date or scheduled maturity date thereof (excluding any such scheduled maturity date which arises as a result of the obtaining of an order or the granting of approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution
of the Issuer), the Issuer will seek the approval of the Commissioner to make each payment of interest on and principal of the Notes. In addition, the Issuer shall notify in writing or cause to be notified in writing each holder of the Notes and the
Fiscal Agent no later than five Business Days prior to the scheduled payment date for interest on or the scheduled maturity date for principal of any Note (excluding any such scheduled maturity date which arises as a result of the obtaining of an
order or the granting of approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of the Issuer) in the event that the Commissioner has not then approved the making of any such payment on such scheduled payment date or such
scheduled maturity date, and thereafter, if such payment has been approved by the Commissioner, shall promptly notify in writing or cause to be notified in writing each holder of the Notes and the Fiscal Agent of such approval and of the fact that,
notwithstanding such approval, the Issuer shall have failed to make any such payment on any such scheduled payment date or such scheduled maturity date. 

(d) For any amounts due and payable under the Notes that are approved by the Commissioner in accordance with Section 4(a) of the
Fiscal Agency Agreement and which are due and payable under the Secured Note dated as of March 24, 2010, from Ambac Assurance Corporation to the Issuer (the “Secured Note”) or the Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement,
dated as of March 24, 2010, by and between Ambac Assurance Corporation and the Issuer (the “Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement”), as the case may be, the Issuer undertakes to demand payment under the Secured Note or
the Aggregate Excess of Loss Reinsurance Agreement, as the case may be, against Ambac Assurance Corporation. 

  
 B-11 








 8. Merger or Consolidation. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any
amounts remain unpaid on any of the Notes, the Issuer may merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation or sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to any person, firm or corporation, if
(i) (A) in the case of a merger or consolidation, the Issuer is the surviving corporation or (B) in the case of a merger or consolidation where the Issuer is not the surviving corporation and in the case of any
such sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition, the successor corporation is either Ambac Assurance Corporation (or its successor) or a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof and
such corporation expressly assumes by supplemental fiscal agency agreement all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, (ii) at the time of any such merger or consolidation, or such sale, conveyance,
transfer or other disposition, the Issuer shall not have failed to make payment of interest on or principal of, or any redemption payment with respect to, the Notes after having received the Commissioner’s prior approval to make such payment
and (iii) the Issuer has delivered to the Fiscal Agent an officer’s certificate stating that such merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition complies with this paragraph and that all conditions precedent
herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. In the event of the assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the Issuer as provided in clause (i)(B) of the immediately preceding sentence, such
successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer hereunder and under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and all such obligations of the Issuer shall terminate. 

9. ERISA. No employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”), or plan or other arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any entity whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan
assets” of such employee benefit plans or arrangements (each, a “Plan”), or governmental, church or foreign plan subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. law that is substantially similar to the provisions of
Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), and no person acting on behalf of or investing “plan assets” of a Plan or a plan subject to a Similar Law, may acquire this Note, unless the
acquisition and holding of the Note is exempt under one or more of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemptions 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14 (or any amendment thereof) or Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code or
another applicable exemption from the prohibitions under Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code or, in the case of a governmental, church or foreign plan subject to Similar Law, such acquisition and holding do not violate any
Similar Law. The acquisition by any person of this Note shall constitute a representation by such person to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent that either (i) such person is not a Plan or a plan subject to Similar Law and is not acquiring the Note
on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan or any plan subject to Similar Law or (ii) its acquisition and holding of the Note or any interest therein are covered under an applicable exemption from the prohibitions under
Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code. The restrictions on acquisitions of the Notes set forth in this paragraph 9 are in addition to those otherwise set forth in Section 6 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and
under applicable law or, in the case of a plan subject to Similar Law, do not violate such Similar Law. 
 10. Subordination.
(a) The Issuer agrees, and each Note holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this paragraph, to the prior payment in full
of all Indebtedness, Policy Claims and Prior Claims (each as hereinafter defined). 

  
 B-12 








 (b) Upon any distribution to creditors of the Issuer in any rehabilitation, liquidation,
conservation or dissolution or similar proceeding relating to the Issuer or its property, the priority of claims of Note holders shall be determined in accordance with Section 645.68 of the Wisconsin Statutes (together with any successor
provision, and as may be hereafter amended from time to time, “Section 645.68”). In a proceeding commenced under Chapter 645 of the Wisconsin Statutes, claims for interest on, principal of, or any redemption payment with respect to,
the Notes constitute Class 10 claims under Section 645.68, as currently in effect. If the Commissioner approves a payment of principal of or interest on the Notes in an amount that is less than the full amount of principal of and interest on
the Notes then scheduled to be paid in respect of the Notes, payment of such partial amount shall be made pro rata among Note holders as their interests may appear. 

(c) If a distribution is made to Note holders that, because of this paragraph, should not have been made to them, the Note holders who receive
the distribution shall pay it over to the Issuer. 
 (d) The Issuer shall promptly notify the Fiscal Agent and the Paying Agent of any facts
known to the Issuer that would cause a payment of principal of or interest on the Notes to violate paragraph 10(b). 
 (e) This paragraph
defines the relative rights of Note holders, on the one hand, and holders of any other claims, on the other hand. Nothing in this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement shall (i) impair, as between the Issuer and Note holders, the obligation of
the Issuer which is, subject to the Payment Restrictions, absolute and unconditional to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms; (ii) affect the relative rights of Note holders and creditors of the Issuer,
other than holders of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims; or (iii) prevent the Fiscal Agent or any Note holder from exercising any available remedies upon a breach by the Issuer of its obligations hereunder, subject to the rights of
holders of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims to receive distributions otherwise payable to Note holders. 
 (f) No right of any
holder of Policy Claims, Indebtedness or Prior Claims to enforce the subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Issuer or by its failure to comply with the terms of this Fiscal
Agency Agreement. 
 (g) Each holder of Notes, by acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent on its behalf to take such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this paragraph and appoints the Fiscal Agent its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

As used herein, “Indebtedness” of the Issuer shall mean (i) all existing or future indebtedness of the Issuer for
borrowed money; (ii) all existing or future indebtedness for borrowed money of other persons, the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer; (iii) all existing or future obligations of the Issuer under any agreement obligating the
Issuer to cause 

  
 B-13 








 
another person to maintain a minimum level of net worth, or otherwise to ensure the solvency of such person; and (iv) all other claims or amounts owed, to the extent that the payment of
principal of and interest on, or any redemption payment with respect to, the Notes would be required by law to be subordinated to the prior payment of any such claim or amount in the event of a distribution of claims pursuant to Section 645.68.
Any indebtedness of the Issuer, which, by its express terms or other contract, is subordinated in right of payment to, or ranks equally with, the Notes shall not constitute Indebtedness. Any other surplus or contribution notes or similar obligations
of the Issuer shall not constitute Indebtedness and will rank pari passu with, or be subordinated to, the Notes. Any surplus or contribution notes or similar obligations of Ambac Assurance Corporation will rank pari passu with the
Notes unless the terms thereof expressly state that such notes are subordinated to the Notes. 
 As used herein, “Policy
Claims” shall mean all existing or future claims of policyowners, beneficiaries and insureds arising from and within the coverage of, and not in excess of the applicable limits of, any and all existing or future policies, endorsements,
riders and other contracts of insurance, annuity contracts (including, without limitation, guaranteed investment contracts and funding agreements) issued, assumed or renewed by the Issuer on or prior to the date hereof or hereafter created, all
claims under separate account agreements to the extent such claims are not fully discharged by the assets held by the Issuer in the applicable separate accounts and all claims of any guaranty corporation or association of the State of Wisconsin or
any other jurisdiction against the Issuer. 
 As used herein, “Prior Claims” shall mean all other claims against the
Issuer, which, in the event of a rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation, dissolution or similar proceeding relating to the Issuer pursuant to Section 645.68, would have priority over claims with respect to the Notes. Under
Section 645.68 as currently in effect, such other claims include: (i) costs and expenses of administration during conservation, rehabilitation, liquidation or similar proceedings, including but not limited to actual and necessary
costs of preserving or recovering the assets of the insurer, compensation for all services rendered in the liquidation; necessary filing fees, fees and mileage payable to witnesses, and reasonable attorney fees; (ii) all claims under
policies for losses incurred, including third party claims and federal, state and local government claims, except the first $200 of losses otherwise payable to any claimant under this clause (ii) other than the federal government;
(iii) claims of the federal government not included under clause (ii), interest at the legal rate compounded annually on all claims in the class under this clause (iii), and on all claims of the federal government in the
class under clause (ii), from the date of the petition for liquidation or the date on which the claim becomes due, whichever is later, until the date on which the dividend is declared; (iv) claims against the Issuer that are not
under policies and that are for liability for bodily injury or for injury to or destruction of tangible property; (v) debts due to employees (with the exception of officers) for services performed, not to exceed $1,000 to each employee
which have been earned within one year before the filing of the petition for liquidation, which shall be in lieu of any other similar priority authorized by law as to wages or compensation of employees, provided, however, that if there
are no claims of the federal government, the claims in clause (v) have priority over all claims under clauses (ii) to (xi); (vi) claims under non-assessable policies for unearned premiums and other premium
refunds and the first $200 of loss excepted by the deductible provision under clause (ii); (vii) all other claims, including claims of any state or local government, not falling within other clauses and claims, including those of
any state or local governmental body, for a penalty or forfeiture, 

  
 B-14 








 
but only to the extent of the pecuniary loss sustained from the act, transaction or proceeding out of which the penalty or forfeiture arose, with reasonable and actual costs occasioned thereby;
(viii) claims based solely on judgments; (ix) interest at the legal rate compounded annually on all claims in the classes under clauses (i) to (viii), except for claims of the federal government in the
classes under clauses (ii) and (iii), from the date of the petition for liquidation or the date on which the claim becomes due, whichever is later, until the date on which the dividend is declared; and (x) pursuant to
subdivision (8) of Section 645.68, the remaining claims or portions of claims not already paid, with interest calculated in accordance with clause (viii). 

11. Delivery of Certain Information. For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding or any amount remains unpaid on any of the
Notes, the Issuer shall, in accordance with Rule 144A, comply with the terms of the agreements set forth in Section 8 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

12. Mutilation, Destruction, Loss, etc. In case this Note shall become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer will execute
and upon the Issuer’s request the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver a new Note, having a number not contemporaneously outstanding, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal amount, registered in the same
manner, bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on this Note, in exchange and substitution for this Note (upon surrender and cancellation thereof if mutilated or defaced) or in lieu of and substitution for this Note. In the
case where this Note is destroyed, lost or stolen, the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by it to save it harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft
of this Note, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer reasonable satisfactory evidence of the destruction, loss or theft of this Note and of the ownership thereof; provided, however, that if the registered holder hereof is, in
the reasonable judgment of the Issuer, an institution of recognized responsibility, such holder’s written agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory for the issuance of a new Note in lieu of and substitution for this Note. The
Fiscal Agent shall authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same only upon written request or authorization of the Issuer. Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require the payment by the
registered holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover fees and expenses connected therewith. In case this Note has matured or is about to mature and shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, subject to the
Payment Restrictions, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except if this Note is mutilated or defaced) upon compliance by the registered holder with the provisions of this
paragraph 12 as hereinabove set forth. 
 13. Amendments. Section 11 of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, which Section
is hereby incorporated mutatis mutandis by reference herein, provides that, with certain exceptions as therein provided and with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
Outstanding or by written consent of such percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal Agency
Agreement or the terms of the Notes or may give consents or waivers or take other actions with respect thereto. Any such modification, amendment, supplement, consent, waiver or other action shall be conclusive and binding on the holder of this Note
and on all future holders of this Note 

  
 B-15 








 
and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation thereof is made upon this Note. The Fiscal Agency Agreement
and the terms of the Notes may, with the prior approval of the Commissioner, be modified or amended by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent, without the consent of any holders of Notes, for the purpose of (a) adding to the covenants of the
Issuer for the benefit of the holders of Notes, or (b) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, or (c) securing the Notes, or (d) evidencing the succession of another corporation to the Issuer
and the assumption by such successor of the covenants and obligations of the Issuer herein and in the Fiscal Agency Agreement as permitted by the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, or (e) modifying the restrictions on, and procedures
for, resale and other transfers of the Notes to the extent required by any change in applicable law or regulation (or the interpretation thereof) or in practices relating to the resale or transfer of restricted securities generally, or
(f) accommodating the issuance, if any, of Notes in book-entry or certificated form and matters related thereto which do not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, or (g) curing any
ambiguity or correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained herein or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement in a manner which does not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder in any material respect, or (h) effecting any
amendment which the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may determine is necessary or desirable and which shall not adversely affect the interest of any Note holder, to all of which each holder of any Note, by acceptance thereof, consents. 

14. Remedies. Holders of Notes may enforce the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes only in the manner set forth below. 

(a) In the event that any state or federal agency shall obtain an order or grant approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or
dissolution of the Issuer (other than an Excluded Order), the Notes will upon the obtaining of such an order or the granting of such approval immediately mature in full without any action on the part of the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes,
with payment thereon being subject to the Payment Restrictions, and any restrictions imposed as a consequence of, or pursuant to, such proceedings. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement, in no event shall
the Fiscal Agent or any holder of the Notes be entitled to declare the Notes to immediately mature or otherwise be immediately payable. 

(b) In the event that the Commissioner approves in whole or in part a payment of any interest on or principal of, or any redemption payment
with respect to, any Notes and the Issuer fails to pay the full amount of such approved payment on the date such amount is scheduled to be paid, such approved amount will be immediately payable on such date without any action on the part of the
Fiscal Agent or any holder of Notes. In the event that the Issuer fails to perform any of its other obligations hereunder or under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, each holder of the Notes may pursue any available remedy to enforce the performance of
any provision of such Notes or the Fiscal Agency Agreement; provided, however, that such remedy shall in no event include the right to declare the Notes immediately payable, and shall in no circumstances be inconsistent with the
provisions of applicable law. A delay or omission by any Note holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing as a result of the Issuer’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder or under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the continuation
thereof shall not impair such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in such non-performance by the Issuer. To the extent permitted by law, no remedy is exclusive of any other remedy and all remedies are cumulative. 

  
 B-16 








 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the right of
any holder of Notes to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such holder’s Notes on or after the respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates expressed in such Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or after such respective scheduled payment or scheduled maturity dates, in each case subject to such payment on such dates having received the approval of the Commissioner pursuant to the Payment Restrictions, including the approval of
the Commissioner, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the holder. 
 15. Optional
Redemption. (a) Subject to the Payment Restrictions, including the prior approval of the Commissioner, the Notes are subject to redemption, as a whole or in part, at the option of the Issuer at any time and from time to time, with no less
than 30 and no more than 60 days’ prior written notice to the holder of the Note, at a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus any accrued but
unpaid interest (including interest on interest); provided, that the Issuer shall not redeem any Notes unless it also redeems a pro rata amount of any other surplus notes of the Issuer outstanding at the time of such redemption.
The Notes may not be redeemed at the option of any Note holder. Notice of any redemption pursuant to this paragraph 15(a) will be given to holders of the Notes as set forth below. Interest installments due on this Note on or prior to a
redemption date will be payable to the holder of this Note of record at the close of business on the relevant record date, all as provided in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. 

(b) In the case of any partial redemption of Notes, each Outstanding Note shall be redeemed pro rata; provided that if at
the time of redemption such Notes are registered as a Global Note, the U.S. Depositary for such Global Note shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed held by each holder of a beneficial
interest in such Global Note. 
 (c) Notices to redeem Notes shall be given to holders of Notes in writing mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, to each holder of registered Notes, or portions thereof, so to be redeemed, at such holder’s address as it appears in the securities register. Such notice will be given once not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days prior to the date
fixed for redemption. If by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to give notice to the holders of Notes in the manner prescribed herein, then such notification in lieu thereof
as shall be made by the Issuer or by the Fiscal Agent on behalf of and at the instruction of the Issuer shall constitute sufficient provision of such notice, if such notification shall, so far as may be practicable, approximate the terms and
conditions of the mailed notice in lieu of which it is given. Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of a Note shall affect the sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Notes. Notices to
redeem Notes shall specify the date fixed for redemption, the Redemption Price or the manner of calculation thereof, the place or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to be redeemed (or portion
thereof in the case of a partial redemption), that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption (unless the date of redemption is a Scheduled Interest Payment Date) will be paid as specified in 


  
 B-17 








 
said notice, and that on and after said date interest thereon will cease to accrue if the Notes are so redeemed. In addition, in the case of a partial redemption, such notice shall specify the
Notes called for redemption and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to remain Outstanding after the redemption. 
 (d) If notice of
redemption has been given in the manner set forth in paragraph 15(c) hereof, the Notes so to be redeemed shall be payable in full on the date specified in such notice and upon presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or
places specified in such notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the places and in the manner and currency herein specified and at the Redemption Price. From and after the redemption date, if monies for the redemption of Notes
called for redemption shall have been made available at the Corporate Trust Office of the Fiscal Agent for redemption on the redemption date, the Notes called for redemption shall cease to bear interest, and the only right of the holders with
respect to such Notes or portion thereof being redeemed shall be to receive payment of the Redemption Price. If monies for the redemption of the Notes are not made available for payment until after the redemption date, the Notes called for
redemption shall not cease to bear interest until such monies have been so made available. 
 (e) Any Note which is to be redeemed only in
part shall be surrendered with, if the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the holder thereof or such
holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the holder of such Note without service charge, a new registered Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as
requested by such holder, and as permitted by Section 1(d) of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. 

16. Obligations Not Impaired. No reference herein to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and no provision of this Note or of the Fiscal Agency
Agreement shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, subject to the Payment Restrictions, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

17. GOVERNING LAW. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. THE
COMMISSIONER’S EXERCISE OF REGULATORY AUTHORITY, INCLUDING APPROVAL OF PAYMENTS ON THIS NOTE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN (OR, IF THE COMMISSIONER IS NO LONGER THE PRIMARY REGULATOR
OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE ISSUER, THE LAW OF SUCH JURISDICTION OF THE PRIMARY REGULATOR OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE ISSUER), AND THE PARTIES TO THE FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT AND HOLDERS OF THIS NOTE SHALL SUBMIT ANY DISPUTES RELATED TO
THE EXERCISE OF SUCH REGULATORY AUTHORITY TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE CIRCUIT COURT IN DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN, OR, SO LONG AS ANY PROCEEDING IS PENDING IN WISCONSIN AS TO THE ISSUER UNDER CHAPTER 645 OF THE WISCONSIN STATUTES, THEN TO THAT
CASE AND COURT.
