Amendments to the Declaration 
 Section 1.01. Section 1.1 of the Declaration shall be amended to add the following new definitions in alphabetical order: 

“Exchange” has the meaning set forth in Section 6.2(a). 

  
 1 








 “Liquidation Amount” means, with respect to Capital Securities or Common
Securities, the liquidation amount per Capital Security or Common Security, respectively, as set forth in Annex I hereto. 

“Sponsor Affiliated Holder” has the meaning set forth in Section 6.2(a). 

Section 1.02 Section 3.8(c)(ii) shall be amended and restated in its entirety so that, as amended and restated, it shall read
as follows: 
 (ii) engage in such ministerial activities as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the redemption of the
Capital Securities and the Common Securities to the extent the Notes are redeemed or mature and to effect the Exchange of Capital Securities and Common Securities for Notes to the extent a Sponsor Affiliated Holder elects to effect such Exchange
pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof; and 
 Section 1.03 Article VI of the Declaration shall be entitled
“Distributions; Exchanges” and it shall be amended by adding the following as Section 6.2: 
 SECTION 6.2
Exchanges. 
 (a) If at any time the Sponsor or any of its Affiliates (in any such case, a “Sponsor Affiliated
Holder”) is the Holder of any Capital Securities or is a Capital Security Beneficial Owner, such Sponsor Affiliated Holder shall have the right to deliver to the Property Trustee all or such portion of its Capital Securities as it elects and,
subject to the terms of the Indenture, receive, in exchange therefor, Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities exchanged therefor (such an exchange being referred to herein as an
“Exchange”). Such election (i) shall be exercisable, and shall be effective on any Business Day, provided that such Business Day is not a record date or any date falling between a record date and a date on which the related
Distribution is payable, by such Sponsor Affiliated Holder delivering to the Property Trustee a written notice of such election specifying the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Capital Securities with respect to which such election is being made and
the date on which such Exchange shall occur, which date shall be not less than three (3) Business Days after the date of receipt by the Property Trustee of such election notice and (ii) shall be conditioned upon such Sponsor Affiliated
Holder having delivered or caused to be delivered to the Property Trustee or its designee the Capital Securities which are the subject of such election by 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on the date on which such Exchange is to occur. After the
Exchange, such Capital Securities shall be cancelled and shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the Sponsor Affiliated Holder with respect to such Capital Securities shall cease. So long as the Capital Securities are in
book-entry-only form, the delivery and the cancellation of the Capital Securities pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be made in accordance with the customary procedures for the Clearing Agency for the Capital Securities. 

(b) In the case of an Exchange described in Section 6.2(a), the Trust shall, at the written request of the Sponsor, on the date of
such Exchange, exchange Notes having a principal amount equal to a proportional amount of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the outstanding Common Securities, such proportional amount determined by multiplying the aggregate Liquidation Amount of
the outstanding Common Securities by the ratio of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities exchanged pursuant to Section 6.2(a) to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities outstanding immediately prior to
such Exchange, for such proportional amount of Common Securities held by the Sponsor (which contemporaneously shall be cancelled and no longer be deemed to be outstanding); provided, that the Sponsor delivers or causes to be delivered to the
Property Trustee or its designee the required amount of Common Securities to be exchanged by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date on which such Exchange is to occur.
