“Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the
“Trustee”), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to
be, authorized and delivered. All terms used in this Notes that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them therein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by
reference to the TIA, if applicable. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA, if applicable, for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express
provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder. 

1. Interest. 
 The Company promises to pay
interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest semiannually on July 1 and January 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing January 1,
2017, until the principal is paid or made available for payment. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from May 26, 2016,
provided that, if there is no existing default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such
interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 2. Method of Payment. 

The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest, if any, which will be paid on such special payment date to Holders of
record on such special record date as may be fixed by the Company) to the persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on June 15 or December 15, as the case may be, immediately preceding the applicable interest payment
date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts. 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. 

Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change or appoint any Paying Agent, Registrar or
co-Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar. 







 4. Optional Redemption. 

The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part. The redemption price will be equal
to the greater of the following amounts: (i) 100% of their principal amount of the Notes being redeemed; and (ii) the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed on the redemption date, discounted to the
redemption date, on a semiannual basis, at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points (0.50%). 
 At any time on or after June 1, 2021 (30 days
prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

 The Company will also pay accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to the redemption date. In determining the redemption price and
accrued interest, interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
 Notice of redemption
may state that the redemption is conditioned upon the occurrence of other events, and will be mailed by first class mail (or delivered electronically in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary) at least 30 days but not more than
60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the Trustee). Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part. On and after the redemption date
interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption so long as the Issuer has deposited with the paying agent for such Notes funds in satisfaction of the redemption price (including accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes
to be redeemed) pursuant to the Indenture, provided that if the Company shall default in the payment of such Notes at the redemption price together with accrued interest, interest shall continue to accrue at the rate borne by the Notes. 

5. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form only without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes by presentation of such Notes to the Registrar or a co-Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other
denominations. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not transfer
or exchange any Note selected for redemption or purchase, except the unredeemed or unpurchased part thereof if the Note is redeemed or purchased in part, or transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be
redeemed or purchased. 
 6. Persons Deemed Owners. 

The registered Holder of this Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

7. Unclaimed Money. 
 Subject to any
applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and thereafter, Holders entitled
to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. 







 8. Amendment, Supplement, Waiver. 

The Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or compliance with any provision of, the Indenture may be
waived in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 
 9. Successor. 

When a successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from those
obligations. 
 10. Trustee Dealings With Company. 

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to,
accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates, as if it were not Trustee, including owning or pledging the Notes. 

11. No Recourse Against Others. 
 A
director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal
securities laws.
