Fixed-Rate Resettable Subordinated Notes due 2050 (the “Notes”). 
 Each Guarantor has duly authorized the execution and
delivery of this Indenture to provide for its guarantee of the Notes (the “Guarantees”). 
 NOW, THEREFORE, THIS
INDENTURE WITNESSETH: 
 For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by the Holders thereof, it is mutually
agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Notes, as follows:

publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by either of the Rating Agencies); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in

 Each such Global Note shall be duly executed by the Company, authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee and shall be registered in the name of DTC, as Depositary, or its nominee, and deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC. Beneficial interests in such Global Notes will be shown on, and transfers will only be made through, the
records maintained by DTC and its participants, including Clearstream and the Euroclear System. 
 Section 207. Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 
 The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any Officer of the Company (or any
general partner of the Company or the ultimate general partner, sole or managing member of such general partner). The signature on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. 

Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper Officers of the Company or its general partner
shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of such Notes. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to
the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes. 

Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation
as provided in Section 213, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

Section 208. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 

The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any
other office or agency of the Company referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes.
The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. 

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount. 

  
 18 













 At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes, of any authorized
denominations and of like tenor and principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, the Notes, which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company and the respective Guarantors, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

 Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be
duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 310 or Section 1105 not involving any transfer. 

If the Notes are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes
during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such Notes selected for redemption under Section 306 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or
(B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 

Holders of the Notes being transferred shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to
comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation, any cost basis reporting obligations under section 6045 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Trustee may rely on any such information provided to it and shall have no
responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of such information. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall have any
obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or
among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by
the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 

  
 19 













 The provisions of clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) of this paragraph shall apply only to
Global Notes: 
 (1) Each Global Note authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated for
such Global Note or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Note shall constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture. 

(2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, and subject to such applicable provisions, if any, no Global Note may be exchanged
in whole or in part for Notes registered, and no transfer of a Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof unless (A) the Depositary has
notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary with respect to such Global Note and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, (B) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing
agency under the Exchange Act and a successor Depositary is not appointed within 90 days, (C) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Note or (D) the Company so directs the Trustee by a
Company Order. 
 (3) Subject to clause (2) above, any exchange of a Global Note for other Notes may be made in whole or in part, and
all Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Note shall direct. 

(4) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Note or any portion thereof,
whether pursuant to this Section 208, 210, 310, 1105 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such
Global Security or a nominee thereof. 
 Section 209. Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. 

(1) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the
Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in the Indenture and in the Global Note) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note to another Global Note shall deliver to
the Security Registrar a duly completed Assignment Form in the form attached to the Global Note, any applicable certifications or opinions required by the Assignment Form and a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Note. The Security Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the
account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note and to debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. 

(2) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the
Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so
transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. 

  
 20 













 (3) If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and
evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale after the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date (as defined in the applicable Note) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision)
without the need for current public information and that the applicable legend in Exhibit A hereto (a “Restricted Legend”) is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note (or a
beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may instruct the Trustee to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note in any authorized denominations of like tenor
and aggregate principal amount, registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction. 

Section 210. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefore a new Note and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be
delivered to the Company and the Trustee (1) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (2) such security or indemnity as shall be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them
harmless, then, in the absence of written notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost
or stolen Note, a new Note and of like tenor and principal amount, having the Guarantees noted therein, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion
may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 210, the Company may require
the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel to the Company and the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its
counsel) connected therewith. 
 Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 210 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and the respective Guarantors, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all
the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes and Guarantees duly issued hereunder. 
 The
provisions of this Section 210 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

  
 21 













 Section 211. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 204 with respect to the Notes, interest on any Note which is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest. 

Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, or is not duly
deferred pursuant to Section 204 (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid
by the Company, at its election, on the Notes to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The
Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the
aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days
prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense
of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1405, not less than 10 days prior to such
Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of
business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 
 Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 211, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried
by such other Note. 
 Section 212. Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a
Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and, subject to Section 204 and Section 211, any
interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

  
 22 













 Section 213. Cancellation. 

All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee,
be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company or any Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or such Guarantor
may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Notes so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 213, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held
by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary procedures. The Trustee shall provide the Company or any Guarantor a list of all Notes that have been cancelled from time to time as requested in writing by the Company or such
Guarantor. 
 Section 214. CUSIP or ISIN Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers and/or other similar numbers, if then generally in use,
and thereafter with respect to the Notes, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice of redemption with respect to the Notes; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers
either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of
such numbers. The Trustee shall be notified, in writing, of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers. 
 Section 215. General
Provisions Relating to Global Notes. 
 Owners of beneficial interests in the Notes evidenced by a Global Note will not be entitled to
any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Note, and the Depositary or its nominee may be treated by the Company, the Guarantors, and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantors or the Trustee, including any Security
Registrar or Paying Agent as the owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Trustee, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent or any other agent of the Company, the Guarantors or of the Trustee shall
have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests. None of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent or any other agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability to any person for any acts or omissions of
the Depositary or its nominee in respect of a Global Note, for the records of any such Depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of such Global Note, for any transactions between such Depositary and any
participant or indirect participant in such Depositary or between or among such Depositary, any participant or indirect participant in such Depositary and/or any Holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or for any transfers of
beneficial interests in any such Global Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent 

  
 23 













 
the Company, the Trustee, the Security Registrar or the Paying Agent or such agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or its
nominee or impair, as between the Depositary or its nominee and such owners of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary or its nominee as Holder of any Global Note.

request (which may be rescinded or revoked at any time prior to the time at which the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. The notice, if delivered in the manner herein
provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail (or otherwise delivered in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary) or
any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Notes. 

Section 308. Deposit of Redemption Price.

Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date, other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption which are owned by any of the Credit Parties and have been
delivered by such Credit Party to the Trustee for cancellation. All money, if any, earned on funds held by the Paying Agent shall be remitted to the Company. In addition, the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the
Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption
in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at 

  
 26 













 
the Redemption Price, together, if applicable, with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to
the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 211; provided, further, that if the
Redemption Date is after a Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable to the Holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Record Date. 

If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and premium, if any, shall, until
paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Note. 
 Section 310. Notes Redeemed in
Part. 
 Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires,
due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. 
 ARTICLE IV 

COVENANTS 

Section 401. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest. 

Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 204 with respect to the Notes, the Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of
the Notes that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if, on or
before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date, the Trustee or the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any Subsidiary of a Credit Party is the Paying Agent, the segregated account or separate trust fund maintained by the Company or such
Subsidiary pursuant to Section 404) holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. 

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue
installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful as provided in Section 211. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors or the Paying Agent may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America or other domestic or foreign
taxing authorities from principal or interest payments hereunder. 

  
 27 













 Section 402. Liens. 

The Credit Parties shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to, create, assume, incur or guarantee any
indebtedness for money borrowed that is secured by a pledge, mortgage, lien or other encumbrance (other than Permitted Liens) on any voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their respective Subsidiaries (to the extent of their
ownership of such voting stock or profit participating equity interests) or any entity that succeeds (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) to all or any substantial part of the business of any of such Subsidiaries, without
providing that the Notes (together with, if the Credit Parties shall so determine, any other indebtedness of, or guarantee by, the Credit Parties ranking equally with the Notes and existing as of the closing of the offering of the Notes or
thereafter created) will be secured equally and ratably with or prior to all other indebtedness secured by such pledge, mortgage, lien or other encumbrance on the voting stock or profit participating equity interests of any such entities for so long
as such other indebtedness is so secured. This Section 402 shall not limit the ability of the Credit Parties or their Subsidiaries to incur indebtedness or other obligations secured by liens on assets other than the voting stock or profit
participating equity interests of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries. 
 Section 403. Maintenance of Office or
Agency. 
 The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Notes may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any
change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands
may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or
all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such
purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

With respect to any Global Note, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Note as contemplated by Section 209, the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the place where such Global Note may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided,
however, that any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary for such Global Note shall be deemed to have been effected for such Global Note in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture. 

  
 28 













 Section 404. Money for Notes Payments to Be Held in Trust. 

If the Company shall at any time act as Paying Agent with respect to the Notes, it will, on or before each due date for the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes a sum sufficient to pay the principal and premium, if any, and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such
Holders or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the
Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for the Notes, it will, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to
pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the Holders of the Notes entitled to the same, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

The Company will cause each Paying Agent for the Notes other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 404, that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal
of or interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. 
 The Company
may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying
Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all
further liability with respect to such money. 
 Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or
any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and
payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment
thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 

Section 405. Statement by Officer as to Default. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof an
Officer’s Certificate of the Company signed by its principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of such Officer, the Company is in default in the
performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture applicable to it (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all
such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which such Officer may have knowledge. 

  
 29 













 The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30
days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default, its status and the actions which the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto. 
 Section 406. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 

The Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, may, with respect to the Notes, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term,
provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 1101(1) or Section 1101(12) for the benefit of the Holders or in Article V, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such
term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term,
provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE V

Section 501. Company and Guarantors May Merge or Transfer Assets on Certain Terms. 

(a) None of the Credit Parties shall be a party to a Substantially All Merger or participate in a Substantially All Sale, unless:

	 	(2)	 immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing; and 


  

	 	(3)	 the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Company and an Opinion of Counsel,

lease, the applicable Credit Party shall be released from all of its liabilities and obligations under this Indenture and the Notes (including the Guarantees). 

ARTICLE VI 
 GUARANTEE OF
NOTES 
 Section 601. Guarantee. 

Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee hereunder, and to the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder, the due and punctual payment in full of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Note when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated
Maturity, call for redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by law) interest, if any, on such Note and all other amounts due and payable under the Indenture (collectively, the
“Obligations”), in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. If the Company shall fail to pay when due any Obligations, for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay in cash the same
promptly. 
 Section 602. Additional Guarantors. 

The Company and each Guarantor shall cause each New Apollo Operating Group Entity (other than a
Non-Guarantor Entity) to become a Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture and provide a Guarantee in respect of the Notes. At any time after the Issue Date, AGM may, upon the sole election of the Company, become
a Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture and provide a Guarantee in respect of the Notes. 
 Section 603. Waiver. 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, any
requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or any other Person, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding
first against the Company, protest or notice with respect to the Notes or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that no Guarantee will be discharged in respect of the Notes except by complete performance of the
Obligations contained in the Notes and in this Article. 

  
 31 













 Section 604. Guarantee of Payment. 

Each Guarantee shall constitute a guarantee of payment when due and not a guarantee of collection. The Guarantors hereby agree that, in the
event of a default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, whether at its Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on
behalf of, or by, the Holder of the Notes, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against the Guarantors to enforce the Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company. 

Section 605. No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee. 

Subject to Section 610, the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and not be subject to any
reduction, limitation, termination, impairment or for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be
subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Notes, this Indenture or the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this
Indenture or the Notes, any other guarantee or any other agreement, by any waiver, modification or indulgence of any provision thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, by any release of
any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 610 or by any other act or omission or delay to do any other act that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any
Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the
Guarantors, increase the principal amount of the Notes, or increase the interest rate thereon, change any redemption provisions thereof (including any change to increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof) or change the Stated Maturity of
any payment thereon. 
 Section 606. Defenses of Company Waived. 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Company or
any other Guarantor or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Company, other than final payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Each of the Guarantors
waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of each of the Guarantors against the Company or any security. 

  
 32 













 Section 607. Continued Effectiveness. 

Subject to Section 610, each of the Guarantors further agrees that its Guarantee with respect to any Note hereunder shall remain in full
force and effect and continue to be irrevocable notwithstanding any petition filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, the Company becoming insolvent or making an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a receiver or
trustee being appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of
principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Trustee or any Holder of any Note, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” upon bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made, until the date upon which the entire Obligation, if any, and interest on such Note has been, or has been deemed pursuant to the provisions of
this Indenture to have been paid in full. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned on any Note, such Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed paid only by
such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 Section 608. Subrogation. 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right of each of the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the
Company to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, each of the Guarantors hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Holders in
cash the amount of such unpaid Obligations, and thereupon the Holders shall, assign (except to the extent that such assignment would render a Guarantor a “creditor” of the Company within the meaning of Section 547 of Title 11 of the
United States Code as now in effect or hereafter amended or any comparable provision of any successor statute) the amount of the Obligations owed to it and paid by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee to such Guarantor, such assignment to be
pro rata to the extent the Obligations in question were discharged by such Guarantor, or make such other disposition thereof as such Guarantor shall direct (all without recourse to the Holders, and without any representation or warranty by the
Holders). If (a) a Guarantor shall make payment to the Holders of all or any part of the Obligations and (b) all the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Indenture shall be paid in full, the Trustee will, at such
Guarantor’s request, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations
resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. 
 Section 609. Subordination. 

Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Holders, as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Company, arising as a
result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Obligations to the Trustee; provided, however, that any
right of subrogation that such Guarantor may have pursuant to this Indenture is subject to Section 608. 

  
 33 













 Section 610. Release of Guarantor and Termination of Guarantee. 

A Guarantor shall, upon the occurrence of any of the following events, be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all
obligations under this Indenture and its Guarantee without any action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder; provided that such Guarantor would not, immediately after such release and discharge, be required to become a Guarantor
pursuant to Section 602: 
  

	 	(1)	 at any time such Guarantor is not AGM (in the event that AGM is an additional Guarantor of the Notes) and is
sold or disposed of (whether by merger, consolidation or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets) to an entity that is not required to become a Guarantor, if such sale or disposition is otherwise in compliance with this Indenture;



  

	 	(2)	 such Guarantor is designated a Non-Guarantor Entity in accordance with
this Indenture; or 


  

	 	(3)	 the Company effects a Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article XIII hereof.



 The Company may designate any Person as a “Non-Guarantor
Entity” if (i) such Person is directly or indirectly wholly owned by one or more of the Credit Parties or (ii) such Person, together with all then-existing Non-Guarantor Entities designated
pursuant to this clause (ii) on a combined and consolidated basis and taken as a whole, would not constitute a Significant Subsidiary (the foregoing, the “Non-Guarantor Limitation”). The
Company may also, from time to time, remove the designation of any Person as a Non-Guarantor Entity and must remove the designation as to one or more Non-Guarantor
Entities designated pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence to the extent as of the end of any fiscal quarter such Non-Guarantor Entities exceed the
Non-Guarantor Limitation. Any such designation or removal by the Company shall be evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a Company Resolution giving effect to such designation or removal,
and in the case of a designation, a certificate of a financial officer of the Company or its general partner certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing provisions. The Company shall promptly file with the Trustee a notice of any
such release of a Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such
release upon receipt of a request of the Company accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to the compliance with this Section 610. 

Section 611. Limitation of Guarantors’ Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee by
such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Title 11 of the United States Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent
applicable to any Guarantor. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and such Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture and its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum aggregate
amount which, after 

  
 34 













 
giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of, any other Guarantor in respect
of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to any other obligations under this Indenture, will result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Each Guarantee is expressly limited so that in no event shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in respect of interest on the Notes (or
fees or other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) exceed the maximum permissible amount under applicable law, as in effect on the date hereof and as subsequently amended or modified to allow a greater amount of interest (or fees or other
amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) to be paid under such Guarantee. If for any reason the amount in respect of interest (or fees or other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) required by a Guarantee exceeds such maximum permissible
amount, the obligation to pay interest under such Guarantee (or fees or other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount and any amounts collected by any holder of any Note in
excess of the permissible amount shall be automatically applied to reduce the outstanding principal on such Note. 
 Section 612. No
Obligation to Take Action Against the Company. 
 Neither the Trustee, any Holder nor any other Person shall have any obligation to
enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or take any other steps under any Note for the Obligations or against the Company or any other Person or any Property of the Company or any other Person before the Trustee, such Holder or such other Person
is entitled to demand payment and performance by any or all Guarantors of their liabilities and obligations under their Guarantee. 

Section 613. Execution and Delivery. 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in this Article VI, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such
Guarantor by an Officer of such Guarantor, and in the case of any New Apollo Operating Group Entity that becomes, or AGM becomes, a Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture, such New Apollo Operating Group Entity’s or AGM’s Guarantee
shall be evidenced by the execution and delivery on behalf of such New Apollo Operating Group Entity or AGM, as applicable, of a supplemental indenture hereto by an Officer of such New Apollo Operating Group Entity or AGM, as applicable. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in this Article VI shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence
of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on any Notes. 
 If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds
that office at the time the Trustee authenticates any Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of any Note by the
Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

  
 35 













 ARTICLE VII 

SUBORDIANTION 

Section 701. Subordination to Senior Claims. 

(a) The Company and each Guarantor covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Note, by its, his or her acceptance thereof, likewise covenants
and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article VII, the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each and all of the Notes: 

(i) shall rank junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable law may
require such payment in another currency) in the event of (A) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to the Company
or to its assets or the relevant Guarantor or its assets, as the case may be, (B) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not
involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (C) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of assets or liabilities of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be (each such event, a “Proceeding”),
to the claims of the holders of all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be (all such claims, “Senior Claims”); 

(ii) (A) shall rank pari passu with respect to each other and (B) shall be similarly subordinated as, and accordingly
rank pari passu with, all existing and future obligations of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, that rank equally in right of payment with the Indebtedness Ranking on Parity with the Notes in the distribution of assets
pursuant to a Proceeding (all such claims referred to in clause (B) above, “Parity Claims”); and 
 (iii)
shall rank prior to (A) the common stock (or the equivalent thereof) of the Company and relevant Guarantor, (B) unless the Company’s or the relevant Guarantor’s limited partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement
(or the equivalent thereof) expressly provide differently, any future shares (or the equivalent thereof) in the Company’s or the relevant Guarantor’s capital and (C) any existing and future obligations of the Company or the relevant
Guarantor, as the case may be, that is Indebtedness Ranking Junior to the Notes of the Company or the relevant Guarantee, as the case may be (all such claims, “Junior Claims”). 

(b) This Article VII shall constitute a continuing offer to all holders of Senior Claims, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the
holders of Senior Claims and such holders are made obligees hereunder and any one or more of them may enforce such provisions. Holders of Senior Claims need not prove reliance on the subordination provisions hereof. 

  
 36 













 Section 702. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. 

(a) Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company or a Guarantor to creditors in connection with a Proceeding: 

(i) the holders of Senior Claims shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable
law may require such payment in another currency) of all amounts due on or to become due on or in respect of all Senior Claims (or provision shall be made for such payment in cash in U.S. dollars (or such other currency), noncallable U.S. Government
Obligations, or a combination thereof), before the Holders of the Notes are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character whether in cash, property or securities, on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes or
on account of any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Notes or on account of the relevant Guarantee of any such payment or distribution (all such payments, distributions, purchases, redemptions and acquisitions, and the relevant
Guarantee of the foregoing, whether or not in connection with a Proceeding, herein referred to, individually and collectively, as a “Notes Payment”); and 

(ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Company or any Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property
or securities, by set-off or otherwise, to which the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled but for the provisions of this Article VII shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other
Person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior Claims or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any
indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Claims may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Claims held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make
payment in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable law may require such payment in another currency) of all Senior Claims remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment to the holders of such Senior Claims. 

(b) If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 702, the Trustee or the Holder of any Note shall have received in
connection with any Proceeding any Notes Payment before all Senior Claims are paid in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable law may require such payment in another currency) (or provision made for such payment in cash in U.S. dollars
(or such other currency), noncallable U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination thereof), and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or distribution, have been made known to the Trustee by written notice or, as the case may
be, such Holder, then and in such event such Notes Payment shall be paid over or delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of
the Company or the relevant Guarantor for application to the payment of all Senior Claims remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Claims in full in cash in U.S. dollars (or such other currency), after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Claims. 

  
 37 













 (c) For purposes of this Article VII only, the words “any payment or distribution of
any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include a payment or distribution of shares of equity or securities of the Company or a Guarantor provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment
authorized by an order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in a reorganization proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or of any other corporation provided for by such plan of reorganization or readjustment which shares of equity
or securities are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Claims that may at the time be outstanding to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Notes are so subordinated as provided in this Article VII. The
consolidation of the Company or a Guarantor with, or the merger of the Company or a Guarantor into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company or a Guarantor following the conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all of
its properties and assets as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VII shall not be deemed a Proceeding for the purposes of this Section 702 if the Person formed by such consolidation or into
which the Company or a Guarantor is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer such properties and assets as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the
conditions set forth in this Article VII. 
 Section 703. No Payment When Senior Indebtedness in Default. 

(a) (i) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Senior
Claim when due, whether at the stated maturity of any such payment or by declaration of acceleration of maturity, call for redemption, mandatory payment or prepayment or otherwise (such default, a “Senior Indebtedness Default”) shall have
occurred or (ii) in the event any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such Senior Indebtedness Default, then no Notes Payment by the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be made unless and until such Senior
Indebtedness Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist or all amounts then due and payable in respect of such Senior Indebtedness (including amounts that have become and remain due by acceleration) shall have
been paid in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable law may require such payment in another currency). 
 (b) If any Senior
Nonmonetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, upon the receipt by the Company or the relevant Guarantor and the Trustee of written notice of such Senior Nonmonetary Default from the holder of such Senior Indebtedness (or the
agent, trustee or representative thereof), no Notes Payment shall be made by the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, during the period (the “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing on the date of such receipt of such written
notice and ending (subject to any blockage of payments that may then or thereafter be in effect as the result of any Senior Indebtedness Default) on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Senior Indebtedness to which such Senior Nonmonetary
Default relates is discharged or such Senior Nonmonetary Default shall have been cured or waived in writing or shall have ceased to exist and any acceleration of Senior Indebtedness to which such Senior Nonmonetary Default relates shall have been
rescinded or annulled and (ii) the 179th day after the date of such receipt of such written notice. No more than one Payment Blockage Period may be commenced with respect to the Notes during any period of 360 consecutive days and there shall be
a period of at least 181 consecutive days in each period of 360 consecutive days when no Payment Blockage Period is in effect. Following the 

  
 38 













 
commencement of any Payment Blockage Period, the holders of any Senior Indebtedness will be precluded from commencing a subsequent Payment Blockage Period until the conditions set forth in the
preceding sentence are satisfied. For all purposes of this paragraph, no Senior Nonmonetary Default that existed or was continuing on the date of commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to the Senior Indebtedness initiating such
Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis for the commencement of a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representatives unless such Senior Nonmonetary Default shall have been cured for a period
of not less than 90 consecutive days. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or any Guarantor shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Note prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 703, and if such fact
shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee by written notice or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company or the relevant
Guarantor, as the case may be. 
 (c) The provisions of this Section 703 shall not apply to any Notes Payment with respect to which
Section 702 would be applicable. 
 Section 704. Payment Permitted If No Default. 

Nothing contained in this Article VII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent (a) the Company or the relevant
Guarantor, at any time except during the pendency of any Proceeding referred to in Section 702 or under the conditions described in Section 703, from making Notes Payments or (b) the application by the Trustee of any money deposited
with it hereunder to a Notes Payment or the retention of such Notes Payment by the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge that such Notes Payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this
Article VII. 
 Section 705. Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Claims. 

Subject to the payment in full in cash in U.S. dollars (except where applicable law may require such payment in another currency) of all Senior
Claims, the Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of Parity Claims) to the rights of the holders of such Senior Claims to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the
Senior Claims until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full in cash in U.S. dollars (or such other currency). For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior
Claims of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article VII, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article VII to the holders of Senior
Claims by Holders of the Notes or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company or the relevant Guarantor, creditors other than holders of Senior Claims and the Holders of the Notes, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company or the
relevant Guarantor or to or on account of the Senior Claims. 

  
 39 













 Section 706. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. 

The provisions of this Article VII are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Notes, on
the one hand, and the holders of Senior Claims, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article VII or elsewhere in Section 204 or in the Notes is intended to or shall (a) impair, as among the Company, the Guarantors and the Holders
of the Notes, the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors, which are absolute and unconditional (subject in the case of interest, to the Company’s right to defer payment thereof as set forth in Section 204 and in the case of the
Guarantees, without duplication of amounts theretofore paid by or on behalf of the Company), to pay to the Holders of the Notes the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in

not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes or that would end such prohibition, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall
have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior Claims or from any trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor; and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that
no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice of any prohibition provided for in this Section 709 at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, but without limiting the rights and remedies
of the holders of Senior Claims or any trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received and shall not be affected by
any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. Any notice required or permitted to be given to the Trustee by a holder of Senior Claims or by any agent, trustee or representative thereof shall be
delivered in accordance with the Indenture. 
 (b) The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a
Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Claims (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Claims (or a trustee, fiduciary or agent therefor). If the Trustee determines
in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Claims to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article VII, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence
as to the amount of Senior Claims held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article VII, and if such evidence
is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

unless received by a Responsible Officer at the Corporate Trust Office.

Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee,
custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the 

  
 41 













 
Trustee or to the Holders of Notes, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Claims, the amount thereof or
payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article VII; provided that the foregoing shall apply only if such court has been apprised of the provisions of this Article VII. 

Section 711. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Claims. 

The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Claims and shall not be liable to any such holders if it
shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Notes or to the Company or the relevant Guarantor or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Claims shall be entitled by virtue of this
Article VII or otherwise. 
 Section 712. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Claims; Preservation of Trustee’s
Rights. 
 The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article VII with respect to any
Senior Claims which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Claims, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article VII shall apply to
claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 906. 
 Section 713. Article Applicable to Paying
Agents. 
 If, at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder,
the term “Trustee” as used in this Article VII shall (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were
named in this Article VII in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 712 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, or a Guarantor or any Affiliate of such Guarantor, if the Company, such
Guarantor or any such Affiliate of the Company or such Guarantor acts as Paying Agent.

Interests. 
 If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture
Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture.

Section 908, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article IX. 

Section 909. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article IX shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 910.

 53 













 If at any time: 
  

	 	(1)	 the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 907 after written request therefor by the Company, the
Guarantors or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, or 


  

	 	(2)	 the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 908 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company, the Guarantors or any such Holder, or 


  

	 	(3)	 the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a
voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, 


 then, in any such case, (A) the Company or the Guarantors may remove the Trustee with respect to all

petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Notes and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause,
with respect to the Notes, the Company or the Guarantors shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Notes (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Notes and that at any

successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 910, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company
or the Guarantors. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall have been so appointed by the Company the Guarantors or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 910, Holders of 10% in aggregate principal
amount of Notes who have been bona fide Holders of Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Notes. 
 The Company or the Guarantors shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to
the Notes and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes to all Holders of Notes in the manner provided in Section 1405. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and the
address of its Corporate Trust Office.

 Section 910. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Notes, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company, the Guarantors and the retiring Trustee a written instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee, but, on the request of the Company, the Guarantors or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon
payment of its charges, execute and deliver a written instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and
money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder subject nonetheless to the lien provided for in Section 906. 
 In case of the
appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes, the Company, the Guarantors, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each
successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Notes; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and the successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes; but, on request of the Company, the Guarantors or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee
shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to the successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Notes nonetheless to the lien provided for in Section 906. 

Upon request of the successor Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be. 

No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible
under this Article IX. 
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Company shall transmit
notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Holders, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense of the Company.

 Section 911. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided that such Person
shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article IX, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the
Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion, consolidation or sale to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself
authenticated such Notes; and in case at that time any Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee;
and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

Section 912. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. 

The Trustee shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, excluding any creditor relationship listed in Section 311(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act. A Trustee who has resigned or has been removed shall comply with Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent indicated. 

Section 913. Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. 

Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action
proposed (to the extent not provided for in this Indenture) to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable
for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than 10 Business Days after the date any officer of the
Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received
written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

Section 1003. Reports by Trustee. 

The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to

 A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such
transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which any Notes are listed, with the Commission (if accepted for filing by the Commission) and the Company. 

Section 1004. Reports by the Company and the Guarantors. 

Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a representation or
warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the reports, information and documents. The Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained
therein, including the Company’s or the Guarantors’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates of the Company). 

(a) For so long as AGM is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide (or
cause its Affiliates to provide) to the Trustee, unless available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or successor system), within 15 days after AGM files the same with the Commission, copies of the
annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which AGM may file with the Commission pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. In connection with any annual report or quarterly report of AGM, the Company will provide (or cause its affiliates to provide) to the Trustee, unless available on the SEC’s Electronic
Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or successor system), an unaudited reconciliation indicating the differences between the financial information of AGM and the financial information of the Credit Parties and their subsidiaries on a
combined and consolidated basis, taken as a whole, provided that, the requirement to deliver such unaudited reconciliation shall not be applicable at any time AGM guarantees the Notes. The Trustee may conclusively presume, and shall incur no
liability in such presumption, that AGM has not filed any such reports, information, documents and other reports with the Commission that are not available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or
successor system) unless and until it shall have received written notice from the Company to the contrary.

without restrictions by non-affiliates of the Credit Parties pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, furnish to the Holders of the Notes and
prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act for the Company and, unless available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval
System (or successor system), such information for AGM (as if such rule applied to it); provided, however, that if at any time the Credit Parties are no longer consolidated with AGM, or AGM does not guarantee the Notes, such
information shall be provided for either (i) the Credit Parties on a combined and consolidated basis, taken as a whole or (ii) any Person that directly or indirectly controls the Credit Parties and guarantees the Notes (in each case, as if
such rule applied to such Persons). The Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, make the above information and reports available to Notes analysts and prospective investors upon request.

 Upon the Company’s exercise of its option, if any, to have this Section 1302 applied to the Notes, (1) the
Company and the Guarantors shall be released from their respective obligations under Section 501 and any covenants provided which were made a part of the terms of the Notes in accordance with Section 1101(1) or Section 1101(11) for
the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 801 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees as provided in this
Section 1302 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1303 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Notes and the
Guarantees, each of the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby. 

Section 1303. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1301 or 1302 to any Notes: 

 

	 	(1)	 The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee
which satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 908 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article XIII applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as
security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of the Notes, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with
their terms will provide money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on




  
 64 














	 	
the Stated Maturity, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Notes. As used herein, “U.S. Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is (i) a
direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or
instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the
option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in clause (x) above and
held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held; provided that (except as
required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment
of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt. 

  

	 	(2)	 In the event of an election to have Section 1301 apply to any Notes, the Company shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S.
federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the
deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Notes and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge
were not to occur. 


  

	 	(3)	 In the event of an election to have Section 1302 apply to the Notes, the Company shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to the Notes
and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur. 



 

	 	(4)	 No Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of
such deposit or, insofar as Section 801(3) or Section 801(4) are concerned, at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th
day). 



  
 65 














	 	(5)	 Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under, any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 


  

	 	(6)	 The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Company and an Opinion of
Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with). 



Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of the Notes at a future date in
accordance with this Article XIII. 
 Section 1304. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust;
Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 404, all money and U.S. Government
Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section 1304 and Section 1305, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the
“Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1303 in respect of the Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any
such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Notes, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and premium, if any, and interest, but money so held in
trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee
against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1303 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Notes; provided that the Trustee shall be entitled to charge any such tax, fee or other charge to such Holder’s account. 

Anything in this Article XIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company
Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1303 with respect to any Notes which are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant
Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Notes. 
 Section 1305. Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article XIII with respect to the Notes by reason of any
order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Guarantees from which the Company and the Guarantors have been
discharged or released pursuant to Section 1301 or 1302 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article XIII with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 1304 with respect to the Notes and 

  
 66 













 
the Guarantees in accordance with this Article XIII; provided, however, that (a) if the Company or the Guarantors makes any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights, if any, of the Holders of the Notes to receive such payment from the money so held in trust
and (b) unless otherwise required by any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall return all such money and U.S. Government Obligations to the Company or the Guarantors,
as the case may be, promptly after receiving a written request therefor at any time, if such reinstatement of the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, has occurred and continues to be in effect. 

ARTICLE XIV 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 

Section 1401. Compliance Certificates and Opinions. 

Upon any application or request by the Company or any Guarantor to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the
Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an
Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically
required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or request, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished; provided, however, that no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required in the case of any
supplemental indenture executed and delivered concurrently with the original execution and delivery of this Indenture. 
 Every certificate
or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (except for certificates provided for in Section 405) shall include: 
  

	 	(1)	 a statement that each individual signing such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition and
the definitions herein relating thereto; 


  

	 	(2)	 a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or
opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 


  

	 	(3)	 a statement that, in the opinion of each such individual, he or she has made such examination or investigation
as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and 


  

	 	(4)	 a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such individual, such condition or covenant has been complied
with. 



  
 67 













 Section 1402. Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. 

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that
all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other
such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. 
 Any
certificate or opinion of an Officer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such Officer’s certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters,
upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer or Officers stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company or a Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such counsel knows, or
in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. 

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or
other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 
 Section 1403. Acts of
Holders; Record Dates. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by
this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein
otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company or the Guarantors. Such instrument or instruments (and the
action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and, subject to Section 901, conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1403. 

The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Trustee reasonably
deems sufficient. Where such execution is by a Person acting in a capacity other than such Person’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such Person’s authority. The fact and date of
the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 

The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Security Register. 

  
 68 













 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the
Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done
by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company or any Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 

The Company or any Guarantor may, in its discretion, set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding
Notes entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of such Notes but shall have no obligation to
do so; provided that none of the Company or any Guarantor may set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in
the next paragraph. If not set by the Company or any Guarantor prior to the first solicitation of Holders of Outstanding Notes made by any Person in respect of such action or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any
such action or vote shall be 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such vote or consent. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take
the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Guarantor from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this
paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and 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. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company or any Guarantor, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1405. 

The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to join in the giving or
making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 806(2) or (iii) any direction referred to in Section 810, in each case with respect to the Notes. If any record date is
set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record
date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall
be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any
Person be cancelled and of no effect), and 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. Promptly after any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company and the Guarantors in
writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1405. 

  
 69 













 With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1403, the party hereto
which sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of
the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 1405, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with
respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1403, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to
its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. 
 Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to
take any action hereunder with regard to any Notes may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Notes or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any
part of such principal amount. 
 Section 1404. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Company and Guarantors. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
  

	 	(1)	 the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or a Guarantor shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if
made, given, furnished or filed in writing (which may be by facsimile) to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; or 


  

	 	(2)	 the Company or a Guarantor by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
(unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid or overnight delivery, to the Company or any Guarantor addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company or such Guarantor at the address of
the Company’s principal office specified in writing to the Trustee by the Company and, until further notice, at 9 West 57th Street, 43rd Floor, New York, New York 10019, fax number: (212) 515-3251, Attention: Chief Legal Officer. 


 The Trustee shall have the
right, but shall not be required, to rely upon and comply with instructions and directions sent by e-mail, facsimile and other similar unsecured electronic methods by persons believed by the Trustee to be
authorized to give instructions and directions on behalf of the Company. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the person who sent such instructions or directions is, in fact, a person authorized to give instructions
or directions on behalf of the Company; and the Trustee shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by the Company or any other Person as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such
instructions or directions. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized
instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. 

  
 70 













 Section 1405. Notice to Holders; Waiver. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid or overnight delivery, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, if any, and not
earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and
such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by
mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Note, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the
Depositary for such Note (or its designee), pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 

Section 1406. Agreement to Certain Tax Treatment. 

Each beneficial owner of the Notes shall, by acquiring a beneficial interest therein, be deemed to have agreed to treat the Notes as
indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 
 Section 1407. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. 

The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 

Section 1408. Successors and Assigns. 

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company and the Guarantors shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

  
 71 













 Section 1409. Separability Clause. 

In case any provision in this Indenture 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. 
 Section 1410. Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 1411.
Governing Law. 
 This Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the
State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. 
 Section 1412. Legal Holidays. 

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest, or the Redemption Price, need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect
as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity. No interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, to the date of such
payment with respect to such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity. 
 Section 1413. No Recourse Against
Others. 
 A director, partner, officer, employee, member, manager or stockholder as such of the Company or any Guarantor shall not have
any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, the Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder shall waive and release
all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes. 
 Section 1414. WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL. 
 EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS, THE TRUSTEE AND THE HOLDERS, BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTES, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING AS AMONG THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS AND THE TRUSTEE ONLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE
GUARANTEES. 

  
 72 













 Section 1415. U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions
and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The
parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act. 

Section 1416. Execution in Counterparts. 

This Indenture may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used
in lieu of the original Indenture and signature pages for all purposes. 
 [Signature page follows]

January 14, 2050 and, subject to the Company’s right to defer payment of interest as set forth in the Indenture, to pay interest thereon, from December 17, 2019, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been

the Trustee, notice of which shall be given to Holders of the Notes not less than 10 days prior to the Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which
such Notes may be listed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

Payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office, in such coin or currency of the United
States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. With respect to Global Notes, the Company will make such payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds to DTC, or its nominee,
as registered owner of the Global Notes. With respect to certificated Notes, the Company will make such payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a United States Dollar account maintained in New York, New York to each Holder of an
aggregate principal amount of Notes in excess of U.S. $5,000,000 that has furnished wire instructions in writing to the Trustee no later than 12 days prior to the relevant payment date. If a Holder of a certificated Note (i) does not

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE] 

1. Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company designated as its “4.950% Fixed-Rate Resettable Subordinated
Notes due 2050” (herein called the “Notes”), issued under an indenture, dated as of December 17, 2019 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as
Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes Outstanding at any time may
not exceed $300,000,000 in aggregate principal amount. The Indenture pursuant to which this Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder. 

All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or
inconsistency between this Note and the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern. 
 2. Optional Interest Deferral. The Company has the
right on one or more occasions to defer the payment of interest on the Notes for up to five consecutive years (each such period, an “optional deferral period”). During an optional deferral period, interest will continue to accrue on the
Notes, and deferred interest payments will accrue additional interest at the then applicable interest rate on the Notes, compounded semi-annually as of each Interest Payment Date to the extent permitted by applicable law. If the Company has
exercised its right to defer interest payments on the Notes, neither the Company nor any Guarantor may generally make payments on or redeem or purchase any of its equity interests or any of its debt securities or guarantees that rank pari passu or
junior to the Notes, subject to exceptions as set forth in the Indenture. 
 3. Subordination. The Notes will constitute the Company’s and the
relevant Guarantor’s direct, unsecured subordinated obligations, respectively, and will rank equally (without any preference) among themselves and with any Parity Claims and prior to any Junior Claims. The rights and claims of the Holders of
the Notes, including under the Guarantees, will be subordinated to all Senior Claims. 
 4. Optional Redemption. On the First Call Date or any
subsequent Reset Date, the Company may at its option redeem all or a part of the Notes, on notice given not more than 60 days, if the Notes are not being redeemed in full, or 45 days, if the Notes are being redeemed in part, nor less than 30 days,
prior to the Redemption Date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the Redemption Date. 

5. Tax Redemption. If a Tax Redemption Event occurs prior to the maturity date of the Notes, the Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in
whole but not in part, within 120 days of the occurrence of a Tax Redemption Event, on notice given not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days, prior to the Redemption Date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes
to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

  
 A-6 













 6. Rating Agency Redemption. If a Rating Agency Event occurs prior to the maturity date of the
Notes, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at its option, within 120 days of the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event, on notice given not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date, at a redemption
price equal to 102% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 
 7.
Change of Control Event Redemption. If a Change of Control Event occurs, the Company may, at its option, upon at least 30 days’ notice following the occurrence of such Change of Control Event, out of funds legally available redeem the
Notes, in whole but not in part, within 60 days of the occurrence of such Change of Control Event, at a price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed
to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 
 8. Global Note. If this Note is a Global Note, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an
interest in this Note, including an exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Trustee, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in
accordance with the Applicable Procedures. 
 9. Defaults and Remedies. If certain of the Events of Default shall occur, the Trustee may pursue
all legal remedies available to it, including the commencement of a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums due and unpaid or the Company’s winding up, subject to the limitations that may exist under applicable law in bankruptcy or
insolvency proceedings, but the Trustee may not, in respect of certain Events of Defaults, declare the principal amount of any outstanding Notes to be due and payable. 

No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless
(i) such Holder has previously given written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of an Event of Default and the continuance thereto with respect to the Notes, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture;
(ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the
Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to
institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
60-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner
whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce
any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 

  
 A-7 













 The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any
payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
 10. Amendment,
Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at
any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any
such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note 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 Note or such other Note. Certain modifications or amendments to the Indenture require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair (without the consent of the Holder hereof) the
obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

11. Registration and Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is
registerable on the Security Register. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Company, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, at the option of the Holder, this Note may be
exchanged for one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount, upon surrender of this Note at such office or agency. Upon such surrender by the Holder, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount. Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for
exchange shall be duly endorsed (if so required by the Company or the Trustee), or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such
Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any
