Issuer shall, at any time after the date hereof, increase the principal amount of the 2024 Notes which may be issued and issue such increased principal amount (or any portion thereof), then any such additional 2024 Notes so issued shall have the
same form and terms (other than the issue price, the date of issuance and, under certain circumstances, the date from which interest thereon shall begin to accrue and the first interest payment date), and shall carry the same right to receive
accrued and unpaid interest, as the 2024 Notes theretofore issued; provided further that, if the additional 2024 Notes are not fungible with the then outstanding 2024 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the additional Notes
shall have a separate CUSIP and/or ISIN number.

 (b) The 2024 Notes will mature, and the principal of the 2024 Notes and accrued and unpaid
interest thereon shall be due and payable, on June 15, 2024 (the “2024 Stated Maturity”), or such earlier date as the principal of any of the 2024 Notes may become due and payable in accordance with the provisions of the
Original Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture. 
 (c) The 2024 Notes shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from
December 15, 2021 or from and including the most recent interest payment date to which interest shall have been paid or provided for payment on the 2024 Notes, whichever is later, at the rate of 0.833% per annum, payable semi-annually in

dollars”, “US$” or “U.S. dollars” shall be deemed to refer to such coin or currency of the United States of America.

office or agency in The City of New York, New York that the Issuer may from time to time designate for such purpose (which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New York, New York), and at such other place or
places as the Issuer, with the approval of the Trustee may hereafter designate. 
 (n) The 2024 Notes shall be subject to redemption as
provided in Section 204 (Optional Redemption of 2024 Notes) and Section 205 (Optional Tax Redemption of 2024 Notes) of this Second Supplemental Indenture and Article Eleven of the Original Indenture. The Issuer shall not otherwise be
required to redeem, purchase or repay 2024 Notes pursuant to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or analogous provision or at the option of the Holders thereof. The 2024 Notes will not be convertible into or exchangeable for securities of any
Person. 
 (o) Sections 14.02 and 14.03 of the Original Indenture shall be applicable to the 2024 Notes.

principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. 
 SECTION 205. Optional Tax
Redemption of the 2024 Notes. The 2024 Notes are subject to redemption, in whole but not in part, at the option of the Issuer at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
applicable redemption date (the “Tax Redemption Date”), all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 11.08 of the Original Indenture, except that the definition of “Interest Tax Event” set forth
in Section 1.01 of the Original Indenture is replaced in its entirety with the following for purposes of the 2024 Notes: 

“Interest Tax Event” means the receipt by the Issuer, EUSHI or the Company of an opinion of independent counsel experienced
in such matters to the effect that, as a result of any: 
 (i) amendment to, clarification of or change (including any officially announced
prospective change) in the laws or treaties of the United States or Canada, as the case may be, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or any regulations under those laws or treaties, that is enacted or effective on or
after the initial issuance of the 2024 Notes and which was not announced prior to the issuance of the 2024 Notes, which for greater certainty excludes any legislative proposals or amendments that implement any of the interest deductibility
restrictions, or any substantially similar restrictions, proposed in the Canadian federal budget announced on April 19, 2021; 
 (ii)
administrative action, which means any judicial decision or any official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, notice or other similar announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to issue or adopt any
administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation, that is taken on or after the initial issuance of the 2024 Notes; 

(iii) amendment to, clarification of or change in the official position or the interpretation of any administrative action or judicial
decision or any interpretation or pronouncement that provides for a position with respect to an administrative action or judicial decision that differs from the previously generally accepted position, in each case by any legislative body, court,
governmental authority or regulatory body, regardless of the time or manner in which that amendment, clarification or change is introduced or made known, that is enacted or effective on or after the initial issuance of the 2024 Notes; or 

(iv) threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with an audit of the Issuer or its partners, or a threatened challenge asserted in
writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the 2024 Notes, which challenge is asserted against the Issuer or its partners or becomes publicly known on or after the
initial issuance of the 2024 Notes, it is more likely than not that the Issuer or its partners (other than the Company acting in its capacity as Guarantor) will be denied a current deduction in whole or in part in calculating its income tax
liability in the United States or Canada that is attributable to any portion of the interest payable on the 2024 Notes.

semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield, plus 20 basis points; 

plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date; and 

(c) on or after the 2031 Par Call Date, the 2031 Notes shall be redeemable (in the manner and in accordance with and subject to the terms and
provisions set forth in Article Eleven of the Original Indenture), at a Redemption Price equal to (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes to be redeemed, plus (ii) accrued interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

 The Issuer shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the Redemption Date of the calculation of the Redemption Price. 

(d) Certain Additional Definitions Relating to Optional Redemption of 2031 Notes. For the purposes of this
Section 304, the following expressions shall have the following meanings: 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the
United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 2031 Notes to be redeemed, calculated as if the maturity date of such 2031 Notes were the 2031 Par Call Date
(the “Remaining Life”), that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of such
2031 Notes. 
 “2031Par Call Date” means March 15, 2031 (three months prior to 2031 Stated Maturity). 

SECTION 305. Optional Tax Redemption of the 2031 Notes. The 2031 Notes are subject to redemption, in
whole but not in part, at the option of the Issuer at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date (the “Tax Redemption Date”), all on the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in Section 11.08 of 

  
 9 













 
the Original Indenture, except that the definition of “Interest Tax Event” set forth in Section 1.01 of the Original Indenture is replaced in its entirety with the following for
purposes of the 2031 Notes: 
 “Interest Tax Event” means the receipt by the Issuer, EUSHI or the Company of an opinion of
independent counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that, as a result of any: 
 (i) amendment to, clarification of or change
(including any officially announced prospective change) in the laws or treaties of the United States or Canada, as the case may be, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or any regulations under those laws or treaties,
that is enacted or effective on or after the initial issuance of the 2031 Notes and which was not announced prior to the issuance of the 2031 Notes, which for greater certainty excludes any legislative proposals or amendments that implement any of
the interest deductibility restrictions, or any substantially similar restrictions, proposed in the Canadian federal budget announced on April 19, 2021; 

(ii) administrative action, which means any judicial decision or any official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure,
notice or other similar announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to issue or adopt any administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation, that is taken on or after the initial issuance of the 2031 Notes;

 (iii) amendment to, clarification of or change in the official position or the interpretation of any administrative action or judicial
decision or any interpretation or pronouncement that provides for a position with respect to an administrative action or judicial decision that differs from the previously generally accepted position, in each case by any legislative body, court,
governmental authority or regulatory body, regardless of the time or manner in which that amendment, clarification or change is introduced or made known, that is enacted or effective on or after the initial issuance of the 2031 Notes; or 

(iv) threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with an audit of the Issuer or its partners, or a threatened challenge asserted in
writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the 2031 Notes, which challenge is asserted against the Issuer or its partners or becomes publicly known on or after the
initial issuance of the 2031 Notes, it is more likely than not that the Issuer or its partners (other than the Company acting in its capacity as Guarantor) will be denied a current deduction in whole or in part in calculating its income tax
liability in the United States or Canada that is attributable to any portion of the interest payable on the 2031 Notes.

by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 16, 2016 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, Emera Incorporated, (the “Company”), Emera US Holdings Inc.,
(“EUSHI” and together with the Company, the “Guarantors”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the
Indenture), as amended and supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 4, 2021, by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, the Original Indenture as
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Security is a global Security initially representing $[    ] aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series. 

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained

payment of interest may be made at the option of the Issuer (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained in the
United States or Canada by the payee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on a global Security registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds. Principal paid in relation to any Security of this series at Stated Maturity shall be paid to the Holder of such Security only upon presentation and surrender of such Security to such office or agency referred to above. 

As provided for in the Indenture, the Issuer may from time to time without notice to, or the consent of, the Holders of the Securities, create
and issue additional Securities of this series under the Indenture, equal in rank to the Outstanding Securities of this series in all respects (or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of the new
Securities of this series or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of the new Securities of this series) so that the new Securities of this series shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Outstanding
Securities of this series and have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Outstanding Securities of this series; provided that, if the additional Securities of this series are not fungible with the Outstanding Securities
of this series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the additional Securities shall have a separate CUSIP and/or ISIN number. 
 The Issuer
shall pay to the Holder of this Security (i) such Additional Amounts and other amounts as may be payable under Section 10.05 of the Original Indenture and (ii) such Additional Interest as may be payable pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement. Whenever in this Security there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (or premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to this Security, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts and/or Additional Interest to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts and/or Additional Interest are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 10 or more than 60 days’ notice, as a whole or in part, at any
time at the election of the Issuer. Prior to the 2024 Stated Maturity, the Securities of this series shall be redeemable at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (at the rate in effect on the date of calculation of the Redemption Price) on the Securities to be redeemed that would be due if such Securities
matured on the 2024 Stated Maturity (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of 

  
 A-3 













 
redemption) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months) at the Treasury Yield plus10 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 

In the event of redemption of the Securities of this series in part only, the Trustee will select the Securities to be redeemed in accordance
with Section 11.03 of the Original Indenture. 
 In the case of any redemption of Securities of this series, interest installments
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 11.06 of the Original Indenture. Securities of this series (or portions thereof) for whose redemption payment is made or duly provided for in accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the
Redemption Date. 
 In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series for the unredeemed
portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of all the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

The Securities do not have the benefit of sinking fund obligations. 

Sections 14.02 and 14.03 of the Original Indenture shall be applicable to the Securities of this series, upon compliance by the Original
Indenture with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain
exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding affected by such amendment or modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities with respect to which a Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any
such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
 No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on this Security at the times,
place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable on the Security Register of the Issuer, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

  
 A-4 













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

Prior to the time of due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator nor any agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
 If at any time, (i) the Depositary for the Securities of this series notifies the Issuer that it
is unwilling or unable or no longer qualified to continue as Depositary for the Securities of this series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of this series shall no longer be a clearing agency registered or in good standing under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, (ii) the Issuer determines
that the Securities of this series shall no longer be represented by a global Security or Securities or (iii) any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Securities of this series, then in such event the
Issuer will execute and Trustee will authenticate and deliver Securities of this series in definitive registered form, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Security in exchange for
this Security. Such Securities of this series in definitive registered form shall be registered in such names and issued in such authorized denominations as the Depository, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or
otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities of this series to the Persons in whose names such Securities of this series are so registered. 

In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Securities under the Indenture, Holders of the Securities of this series shall have the
rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 4, 2021, among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the initial purchasers named therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), including the right to receive
the Exchange Notes and the additional interest as provided therein. 
 The Indenture and this Security shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 All references herein to “dollars” or “$” means a dollar or other
equivalent unit in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time should be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and all terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the

 REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer designated as its 2.639% Notes due 2031 (the
“Securities”), initially in aggregate principal amount of $[    ], which may be issued under the Indenture dated as of June 16, 2016 (the “Original Indenture”), as amended and supplemented
by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 16, 2016 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, Emera Incorporated, (the “Company”), Emera US Holdings Inc.,
(“EUSHI” and together with the Company, the “Guarantors”), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the
Indenture), as amended and supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 4, 2021, by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, the Original Indenture as
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Security is a global Security initially representing $[    ] aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series. 

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained
for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that
payment of interest may be made at the option of the Issuer (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained in the
United States or Canada by the payee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on a global Security registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds. Principal paid in relation to any Security of this series at Stated Maturity shall be paid to the Holder of such Security only upon presentation and surrender of such Security to such office or agency referred to above. 

As provided for in the Indenture, the Issuer may from time to time without notice to, or the consent of, the Holders of the Securities, create
and issue additional Securities of this series under the Indenture, equal in rank to the Outstanding Securities of this series in all respects (or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of the new
Securities of this series or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of the new Securities of this series) so that the new Securities of this series shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Outstanding
Securities of this series and have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Outstanding Securities of this series; provided that, if the additional Securities of this series are not fungible with the Outstanding Securities
of this series for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the additional Securities shall have a separate CUSIP and/or ISIN number. 
 The Issuer
shall pay to the Holder of this Security (i) such Additional Amounts and other amounts as may be payable under Section 10.05 of the Original Indenture and (ii) such Additional Interest as may be payable pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement. Whenever in this Security there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (or premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to this Security, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payment of Additional Amounts and/or Additional Interest to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts and/or Additional Interest are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. 

The Securities of this series are subject to redemption, in whole but not in part, at the option of the Issuer at a Redemption Price equal to
100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable Redemption Date, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 11.08 of the Original Indenture. 

The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 10 or more than 60 days’ notice, as a whole or in part, at any
time at the election of the Issuer. Prior to the 2031 Par Call Date, the Securities of this series shall be redeemable at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (ii) the
sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (at the rate in effect on the date of calculation of the Redemption Price) on the Securities to be redeemed that would be due if such Securities matured on the
2031 Par Call Date (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) 

  
 B-3 













 
discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months) at the Treasury Yield plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date. If the Securities of this series are redeemed on or after the 2031 Par Call Date, the Securities may be
redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 

In the event of redemption of the Securities of this series in part only, the Trustee will select the Securities to be redeemed in accordance
with Section 11.03 of the Original Indenture. 
 In the case of any redemption of Securities of this series, interest installments
whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant record dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 11.06 of the Original Indenture. Securities of this series (or portions thereof) for whose redemption payment is made or duly provided for in accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the
Redemption Date. 
 In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series for the unredeemed
portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of all the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

The Securities do not have the benefit of sinking fund obligations. 

Sections 14.02 and 14.03 of the Original Indenture shall be applicable to the Securities of this series, upon compliance by the Original
Indenture with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain
exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding affected by such amendment or modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities with respect to which a Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any
such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
 No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on this Security at the times,
place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable on the Security Register of the Issuer, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain 

  
 B-4 













 
limitations therein set forth, the Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities
of this series, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 

Prior to the time of due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator nor any agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
 If at any time, (i) the Depositary for the Securities of this series notifies the Issuer that it
is unwilling or unable or no longer qualified to continue as Depositary for the Securities of this series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of this series shall no longer be a clearing agency registered or in good standing under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, (ii) the Issuer determines
that the Securities of this series shall no longer be represented by a global Security or Securities or (iii) any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Securities of this series, then in such event the
Issuer will execute and Trustee will authenticate and deliver Securities of this series in definitive registered form, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Security in exchange for
this Security. Such Securities of this series in definitive registered form shall be registered in such names and issued in such authorized denominations as the Depository, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or
otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities of this series to the Persons in whose names such Securities of this series are so registered. 

In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Securities under the Indenture, Holders of the Securities of this series shall have the
rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 4, 2021, among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the initial purchasers named therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), including the right to receive
the Exchange Notes and the additional interest as provided therein. 
 The Indenture and this Security shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 All references herein to “dollars” or “$” means a dollar or other
equivalent unit in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time should be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and all terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
