more than 120 days (whether or not consecutive) in any 12-month period (each such event referred to in clauses (i) to (iv), a “Registration Default”), then a special interest premium (the “Special Interest

Notes will be reduced to the original interest rate for the Notes from the earlier of such date that the Shelf Registration Statement has again become effective or the prospectus contained therein again becomes usable (or the date a new Shelf
Registration Statement becomes effective or a new prospectus becomes usable). 
 Interest on this Note shall accrue from the
most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for on this Note or the Note surrendered in exchange for this Note (or, if there is no existing default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a regular
record date and the next interest payment date, from such interest payment date) or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Interest not paid when due and any interest on principal, premium or interest not paid when due shall be paid to the Persons that are
Holders on a special record date, which shall be the 15th day preceding the date fixed by the Company for the payment of such interest, whether or not such day is a business day. At least 15 days before a special record date, the Company shall send
to each Holder and to the Trustee a notice that sets forth the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid.
