The interest rate payable on the Notes shall be subject to adjustment from time to time if the Applicable Rating Agency downgrades (or
subsequently upgrades) the rating assigned to the Notes in the manner described in this Section 2.03. 
 The interest rate on the Notes
will increase such that it will equal the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date plus 1.000%, or 100 basis points, per annum if, at any time, (a) the Applicable Rating Agency downgrades the credit rating assigned to the Notes to
below Investment Grade or (b) in the case where there is only one Rating Agency rating the Notes, such Rating Agency ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available (each such event, a “Downgrade
Event”). 

  
 7 







 If the Applicable Rating Agency subsequently increases its rating to Investment Grade or an
Applicable Rating Agency subsequently issues an initial rating of the Notes at Investment Grade (each such event, an “Upgrade Event”), the annual interest rate payable on the Notes immediately preceding such Upgrade Event will
decrease to the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date. 
 Each adjustment required by any Downgrade Event or Upgrade Event
will take effect from the first Interest Payment Date following the date on which the Downgrade Event or Upgrade Event occurs. As such, interest will not accrue at such increased or decreased rate until the next Interest Payment Date following the
date on which the Upgrade Event or Downgrade Event occurs. If an Applicable Rating Agency changes its rating of the Notes more than once prior to any particular Interest Payment Date, or ceases to provide a rating of the Notes, the last change by
such agency prior to such Interest Payment Date will control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease with respect to the Notes described in this Section 2.03 relating to such Applicable Rating Agency’s action. 

If the interest rate payable on the Notes is increased or decreased as described above, the term “interest,” as used with respect to
the Notes, will be deemed to include any such additional or lesser interest unless the context otherwise requires. For the avoidance of doubt, no interest rate increase or decrease described in this Section 2.03 will have any effect on interest
that will have accrued on the Notes prior to such date or have any other retroactive effect. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any adjustments made to the interest rate payable on the Notes pursuant to this Supplemental
Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION 
 Section 3.01. Optional
Redemption. 
 (a) Prior to September 15, 2027 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes, at its
option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) from the date of redemption to the Par Call Date, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points; plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of any
Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date of the Notes to be redeemed. 
 (b) On or after the Par Call Date, the
Company may redeem the Notes, at the Company’s option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
amount of any Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date. 
 (c) If a redemption date occurs during the period
beginning on an Regular Record Date and ending on the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date, and
no additional interest shall be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Company. 
 Section 3.02. Mandatory
Redemption. 
 The Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
Section 4.05 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

(7) if such notice is delivered prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, stating that the Change of Control Offer is
conditioned on the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event; and 
 (8) that Holders whose Notes are being repurchased only in
part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Notes, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order in the case of certificated Notes, shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything
in the Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officers’ Certificate will be required for the Trustee to authenticate or deliver such new Note) equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any;
provided that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Control Triggering Event.

 (2) the Voting Stock of a Subsidiary that owns, directly or indirectly, the Voting Stock of any of the
Significant Subsidiaries, in either case, without providing that the issued and outstanding Notes will be secured equally and ratably with Indebtedness so secured so long as such other Indebtedness shall be secured. This Section 4.03 does not
apply to liens on Voting Stock existing at the time a Person becomes a Significant Subsidiary or any renewal or extension of such existing liens and does not apply to securities of Subsidiaries that are not “Significant Subsidiaries.” 

(b) If the Company shall hereafter be required to secure the Notes equally and ratably with any other Indebtedness pursuant to this
Section 4.03, the Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to enter into an indenture or agreement supplemental hereto in order to provide for such security. 

Section 4.04. Restrictions on Dispositions. 

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, issue, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or
indirectly, any of the Capital Stock of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries as of the Issue Date (except to the Company or to one or more of the Company’s other Subsidiaries, or for the purpose of qualifying directors or as may be
required by law or regulation), unless:

disposed of in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, for consideration consisting of cash or other property which is at least equal to the Fair Value of such Capital Stock; or 

(3) after giving effect to the issuance, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, the Company and its Subsidiaries would own directly
or indirectly at least 80% of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of such Significant Subsidiary and such issuance, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition is made for consideration consisting of cash or other property which is at least

 Section 4.05. Reports and Other Information. 

(a) Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the
Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Holders, within 15 days after the applicable time periods specified in the relevant forms (or, if the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act,
within 15 days after the applicable time periods specified in the relevant forms for non-accelerated filers), after giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule
12b-25 under the Exchange Act: (1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms

Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; and (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed
with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports; provided, however, that to the extent such reports are filed with the Commission and publicly available, such
reports shall have been deemed to have been provided to the Trustee and the Holders and no additional copies need to be provided to the Trustee and the Holders. The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine whether any such filing
has occurred. 
 (b) Unless such reports are otherwise filed with the Commission, the Company shall maintain a website to which all of the
reports required by this Section 4.05 are posted to which access will be given to the Trustee, the Holders and prospective purchasers of the Notes that certify their status as such to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and agree to keep
such reports confidential. 
 (c) In addition, if at any time any direct or indirect parent company of the Company guarantees the Notes
(there being no obligation of any such parent to do so), and such entity holds no material assets other than cash, cash equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Company or any other direct or indirect parent of the Company (and


  
 10 







 
performs the related incidental activities associated with such ownership) and would comply with the requirements of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Commission (or any successor provision), the reports, information and other documents required to be furnished to Holders pursuant to this Section 4.05 may, at the option of the Company,
be furnished by and be those of such parent rather than the Company. 
 (d) Any and all defaults or Events of Default arising from a failure
to furnish or file in a timely manner a report required by this Section 4.05 shall be deemed cured (and the Company shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 4.05) upon furnishing or filing such report as contemplated by this
Section 4.05 (but without regard to the date on which such report is so furnished or filed); provided that such cure shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders pursuant to Article Seven of the Base Indenture if the principal,
premium, if any, and accrued interest have been accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cancelled prior to such cure.
