APPLICATION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

AND CREATION, FORMS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SECURITIES 

Section 2.01 Application of this Third Supplemental Indenture. The provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture,
including the covenants set forth herein, are expressly and solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities. The Securities constitute a separate series of Securities as provided in Section 2.1 of the Base Indenture. With
respect to the Securities only, the Base Indenture shall be supplemented and amended pursuant to this Third Supplemental Indenture. To the extent that the provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture conflict with any provision of the Base
Indenture, the provisions of this Third Supplemental Indenture shall govern and be controlling, but solely with respect to the Securities. 

Section 2.02 Creation of the Securities. In accordance with Section 2.1 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby creates the
Securities as a separate series of its Securities issued pursuant to the Base Indenture. The Securities shall be issued initially in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000,000, including up to $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
Securities in the event that the underwriters exercise their right in full to purchase Additional Securities under that certain Underwriting Agreement, dated as of June 6, 2018, between the Company and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and UBS
Securities LLC, as representatives of such underwriters. Additional Securities may be issued pursuant to Section 2.04(e) hereof. 

  
 4 








 Section 2.03 Form of the Securities. The Securities shall be
issued in the form of a Global Security, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, which shall be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as the nominee of
DTC. The Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global Security, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, shall be
considered the sole owner or Holder of the Securities represented by such Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture and under such Securities. Ownership of beneficial interests in such Global Security shall be shown on, and transfers
thereof shall be effective only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or Persons that hold interests through participants (with respect to beneficial interests of
beneficial owners). The Securities shall not be issuable in temporary global form. 
 Section 2.04 Terms and Conditions of the
Securities. 
 The Securities shall be governed by all the terms and conditions of the Indenture. In particular, the following
provisions shall be terms of the Securities: 
 (a) Title and Conditions of the Securities. The title of the Securities shall be
as specified in the Recitals; and the aggregate principal amount of the Securities shall be as specified in Section 2.02 of this Article II, except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange
for, or in lieu of, the Securities pursuant to Sections 2.8, 2.9, 2.13, 2.16, 5.7 or 9.5 of the Base Indenture and except for any Securities that, pursuant to Section 2.4 or 2.16 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 (b) Stated Maturity. The Securities shall mature, and the principal of the Securities
shall be due and payable in U.S. Dollars to the Holders thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on June 15, 2033 (the “Stated Maturity”). 

(c) Payment of Principal and Interest. The Securities shall bear interest at 7.75% per annum, from and including June 11,
2018, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined hereafter) on which interest has been paid or provided for until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal. Interest on the Securities shall be
payable quarterly in arrears in U.S. Dollars on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2018 (each such date, a “Interest Payment Date” for the purposes of
the Securities under the Indenture). Payments of interest shall be made to the Person in whose name a Security (or predecessor Security) is registered (which shall initially be the Depositary) at the close of business on the March 1,
June 1, September 1 and December 1 (whether or not that date is a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date” for the purposes of the
Securities). Interest on the Securities shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable
for any period shorter than 

  
 5 








 
a full quarterly interest period shall be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 90-day quarter of three
30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday in the City of New York or a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York are authorized by law,
regulation or executive order to close, then payment of interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no additional interest will accrue because of the delayed payment. 

(d) Registration, Form and Denominations. The Securities shall be issuable as registered securities as provided
in Section 2.03 of this Article II. The form of the Securities shall be as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Securities shall be issued and may be transferred only in minimum denomination of
$25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof. All payments of principal, Redemption Price and accrued unpaid interest in respect of the Securities shall be made by the Company as set forth in the Securities. 

(e) Further Issuance. The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Holders, pursuant to a Company
Order delivered to the Trustee, create and issue Additional Securities provided that such Additional Securities constitute a qualified reopening of the Initial Securities pursuant to Treasury Regulation
Section 1.1275-2(k). Additional Securities issued in this manner shall be consolidated with and shall form a single series with the previously outstanding Securities. 

(f) Ranking. The Securities shall be the Company’s unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and shall rank equally in right of
payment with all of its current and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and senior to all of its current and future subordinated indebtedness. 

(g) Sinking Fund. The Securities are not entitled to any sinking fund. 

(h) Additional Amounts. No Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to the Securities. 

(i) Surrender of Securities. The Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange at the Corporate Trust Office.

 (j) Purchase Price. The initial purchase price to the public (not including the underwriters referred to in Section 2.02
of this Third Supplemental Indenture) of the Initial Securities shall be 100% of the principal amount of each Security. 
 (k) Other Terms
and Conditions. The Securities shall have such other terms and conditions as provided herein.

Company’s option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Holders of the Securities, at a Redemption Price (as calculated by the Company) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed
plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of the Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date). 

(b) To the extent not conflicting with the terms of this Third Supplemental Indenture, including this Section 3.01, the terms of
Article V of the Base Indenture shall apply to the redemption of the Securities pursuant to this Section 3.01. 

Section 3.02 Mandatory Redemption; Open Market and Other Purchases. The Company will not be required to repurchase the Securities
or make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities. The Company or any Affiliate of the Company may at any time and from time to time acquire Securities by means other than a redemption, whether by tender
offer, purchases in the open market, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws. Such Securities may, at the option of the Company or the relevant Affiliate of the Company, be held, resold, or
surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Securities have consented to or voted in favor of any request, direction, notice, waiver, amendment or modification
under the Indenture, Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be held by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall not be considered outstanding. 

ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS

 The covenants set forth in this Article IV shall be applicable to the Company in addition to the covenants in Article III
of the Base Indenture, which shall in all respects be applicable in respect of the Securities. 
 Section 4.01 Reports to
Holders.

 in the case of each of clauses (i) and
(ii) above, within 30 days after the Company files the same with the Commission (or if not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, within 30 days after it would have been required to file the same with the
Commission); provided that the delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and 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 compliance with any of its covenants under the Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 

(b) In addition, whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the Company shall file a copy of all such
information and reports with the Commission for public availability (unless the Commission will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request. To the extent that the
Company files such information and reports with the Commission and such information and reports are publicly available via EDGAR on the Commission’s website, then the Company shall not be required to furnish such information and reports to the
Trustee for delivery to the Holders of the Securities.

the Base Indenture is amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:

all of the Company’s assets in accordance with the foregoing in which the Company is not the continuing corporation, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, lease or
transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Indenture and the Securities with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named as such.

(6) or (7)” in the first and second paragraph and in clause (5) of the third paragraph are deleted and replaced with the words “clause (7) or (8)”. 

Notwithstanding Article VI of the Base Indenture, for the first 365 days immediately following an Event of Default relating to (i) the
Company’s failure to file with the Trustee any documents or reports that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or (ii) the Company’s failure to comply with its reporting
obligations to the Trustee set forth under Section 4.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the sole remedy for any such Event of Default shall be the accrual of additional interest on the Securities at a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.25% of
the outstanding principal amount of the Securities for the first 180 days following the occurrence of such Event of Default and (ii) 0.50% of the outstanding principal amount of the Securities for the next 180 days after the first 180 days following
the occurrence of such Event of Default, in each case, payable quarterly at the same time and in the same manner as regular interest on the Securities. This additional interest will accrue on all outstanding Securities from, and including the date
on which such Event of Default first occurs to, and including, the 365th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived). In addition to the accrual of such additional interest, on and after the
360th day immediately following an Event of Default relating to such reporting obligations, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities may declare the principal amount of the Securities
and any accrued and unpaid interest through the date of such declaration, to be immediately due and payable.

 ARTICLE VII 

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

Section 7.01 Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Section 8.1 of the Base Indenture shall be
amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following Section 8.1: 
 The Securities shall be subject to defeasance or
covenant defeasance pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article VIII. The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.2 or 8.3 be applied to all
outstanding Securities so subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution of the Company. 

Section 7.02 Covenant Defeasance. Section 8.3 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety and
replaced with the following Section 8.3: 
 Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to
this Section 8.3 with respect to the Securities, the Company shall, with respect to the Securities, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be released from obligations under the covenants contained
in Sections 3.2 and 3.5 of the Base Indenture, Sections 4.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture and Section 4.1 of the Base Indenture (as amended by Section 5.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture) with respect to the outstanding
Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of
any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders of the Securities (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it
being understood that the Securities shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no
liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any
other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under clauses (3) or (4) of Section 6.1 of the Base Indenture (as amended and restated by
Section 6.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture), but, except as specified above, the remainder of the Indenture and the Securities shall be unaffected thereby. If the Company exercises under Section 8.1 hereof the option applicable
to this Section 8.3, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, payment of the Securities may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clauses (5), (6), (7) or (8) (other
than, in the case of clauses (7) and (8), any such Event of Default with respect to the Company) of Section 6.1 of the Base Indenture (as amended and restated by Section 6.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture). 

  
 12 








 Section 7.03 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. Section 8.4 of the
Base Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following Section 8.4: 
 The following shall be the conditions
to the application of either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof to the outstanding Securities of any series. 
 In order to
exercise Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Securities of any series: 
 (1) the Company irrevocably deposits with
the Trustee, in trust, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of the Securities, (i) cash in U.S. dollars, (ii) non-callable U.S. government
securities or (iii) a combination thereof, in each case in an amount sufficient, after payment of all federal, state and local taxes in respect thereof, in the opinion of a nationally-recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed
in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay when due the principal, premium, if any, and interest to Stated Maturity or to the Redemption Date, as the case may be, with respect to the Securities then outstanding, and any
similar payments or payment pursuant to any call for redemption applicable to the Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Securities; 

(2) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the deposit or insofar as an Event of Default resulting
from certain events involving the Company’s bankruptcy or insolvency are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of the deposit or, if longer, ending on the day following the expiration date of the longest
preference period applicable to the Company in respect of the deposit (and this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period); 

(3) the defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have any conflicting interest with respect to any of securities of the Company or result in
the trust arising from the deposit to constitute, unless it is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; 

(4) the defeasance shall not result in a default or Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Securities (other than a Default
or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or
any Significant Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary is bound; 
 (5) the Company shall have delivered
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax in the same manner as if the
defeasance had not occurred, which Opinion of Counsel, in the case of legal defeasance, must refer to and be based upon a published ruling of the Internal Revenue Service, a private ruling of the Internal Revenue Service addressed to us, or
otherwise a change in applicable federal income tax law occurring after the date hereof; and 

  
 13 








 (6) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel stating that the conditions to such defeasance set forth in the Indenture have been complied with. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

AMENDMENTS 

Section 8.01 Without Consent of Holders. Section 9.1 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety
and replaced with the following: 
 The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities without the consent of any Holder of
Securities: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency; 

(2) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; 

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of Securities in accordance with the Indenture in the case of a
merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets; 
 (4) to make any change that would
provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Securities or that does not materially, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder;

 (5) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust
Indenture Act; 
 (6) to add covenants for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company; 

(7) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee; 

(8) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary; 

(9) to add a Guarantor of the Securities; 

(10) to secure the Securities; 

(11) to provide for the issuance of Additional Securities in accordance with the Indenture; or 

  
 14 








 (12) to conform the Indenture or the Securities to the “Description of the Notes”
section in the Prospectus Supplement, to the extent any provision of the Indenture or the Securities is expressly inconsistent with any provision of the “Description of the Notes”. 

After an amendment becomes effective, the Company is required to deliver to the Holders of each Security affected thereby a notice briefly
describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders of each Security affected thereof, or any defect therein, will not impair or affect the validity of the amendment or supplemental indenture under this
Section 9.1. 
 Section 8.02 With Consent of Holders. Section 9.2 of the Base Indenture shall be amended and
restated in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
 Except as provided in Section 9.1 and this Section 9.2, the Indenture
or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase
of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities). 
 Upon the request of the Company, accompanied by a Board Resolution, and upon the
filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 9.5, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 9.6, join with the Company in the execution of
such amendment or supplemental indenture. 
 Except as otherwise provided by Section 6.4 and this Section 9.2, the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of the Indenture with respect to the Securities (including waivers obtained in connection with a purchase
of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities of such series). 
 Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment,
supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any Securities held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1)
reduce the principal amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) change the Stated Maturity
of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Security; 
 (3) reduce the principal amount of, or premium, if any, or interest
on, any Security; 
 (4) change the optional Redemption Price (or the method of calculating the Redemption Price) of the Securities from
those stated in Section 3.01 of this Third Supplemental Indenture; 

  
 15 








 (5) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest, or premium,
if any, on, the Securities (except, upon a rescission of acceleration of the Securities by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities, a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration) or
in respect of any other covenant or provision that cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders; 
 (6) make any Security
payable in money other than U.S. dollars; 
 (7) make any change in the amendment and waiver provisions of the Indenture; or 

(8) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the Securities. 

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. 
 A consent to any amendment or waiver under
the Indenture by any Holder of the Securities given in connection with a tender of such Holder’s Securities will not be rendered invalid by such tender. After an amendment under this Section becomes effective, the Company shall
promptly deliver to Holders of each Security affected thereby a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders of each Security affected thereby, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the
validity of an amendment, supplemental indenture or waiver under this Section 9.2.

 (Reverse of Security) 

COWEN INC. 
 7.75% SENIOR NOTE DUE
2033 
 1. This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its 7.75% Senior Notes due 2033 (the
“Securities”) issued and to be issued under an indenture, dated as of October 10, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), and the third supplemental indenture, dated as of June 11, 2018 (the Base Indenture, as so supplemented and as it may be further supplemented or amended from time to time, is herein
referred to as the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and the
terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Securities are subject to all
such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern
and be controlling. The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Securities, including the principal thereof and interest thereon (including post-default interest), shall constitute unsecured indebtedness of the Company and shall rank
equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s current and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and senior to all of its current and future subordinated debt. 

Interest on the Securities shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 2. The Securities are redeemable on or after June 15, 2023, at the option of the
Company, as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the Redemption Price and in the manner provided in the Indenture. 
 3. If
an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect
provided in the Indenture. 
 4. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment or supplement thereof and
the Securities and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, 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 Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 

  
 1 








 5. The Securities are issuable as registered securities in minimum denominations of $25.00 or any
amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $25.00. As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities in
authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 6. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Registrar shall register the transfer and make certain exchanges of the Securities if the Registrar’s requirements and the requirements of the Indenture for such transactions are met. Such Securities
presented for transfer or exchange must be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney, duly authorized in
writing, on which instruction the Registrar can conclusively rely. 
 7. No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any such
registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted in the Indenture), but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other
than such transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable on exchanges pursuant to the Indenture). 
 8. Prior to the due presentment of
this Security for registration of transfer or exchange, the Company, the Trustee, any agent and any authenticating agent may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company,
the Trustee, any agent nor any authenticating agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 9. The Trustee in its individual or any
other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

10. No director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder or other owner of Capital Stock of the Company, as
such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Securities by accepting a
Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Securities. 

11. This Security shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. 

12. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by
the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUT (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

  
 2 








 13. Each Holder of this Security covenants and agrees by such Holder’s acceptance thereof to
comply with and be bound by the foregoing provisions. 
 14. THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE AND THE HOLDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS SECURITY, THE INDENTURE OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY. 
 15. All capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined in
the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
