If such rate does not appear on Reuters Page LIBOR01, Three-Month LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. dollars for a three-month period commencing on the first day of that Floating-Rate Interest Period and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 are offered to prime banks in the London interbank market by four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date for that Floating-Rate Interest Period.

However, if fewer than three banks selected by the Calculation Agent to provide quotations provide quotes as described above, Three-Month LIBOR for that Floating-Rate Interest Period will be the same as Three-Month LIBOR as determined for the previous Floating-Rate Interest Period or, in the case of the first Floating-Rate Interest Period, 0.27%.

“Treasury Dealers” means (1) each of Barclays Capital Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (or their successors) or if any of the foregoing ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), a substitute nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer specified by the Company for these purposes and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Premium Calculation Agent after consultation with the Company.

“Treasury Price” means with respect to a Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Premium Calculation Agent obtains fewer than four such Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“U.S. Global Note” means a Global Note that bears the Restricted Legend representing Notes issued and sold pursuant to Rule 144A.
(c)    As used in the Indenture, for purposes of the Notes, the term “interest” shall be deemed to include (i) any “Additional Interest” payable as a consequence of a “Registration Default,” in each case as defined in, and in accordance with, a Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) interest on interest payments deferred pursuant to Section 2.06(e).

(c)    (i) 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 pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without compliance with any limits thereunder and that the 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, 
(ii)    after an Initial Note or any Initial Additional Note is (x) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise, or (y) is validly tendered for exchange into an Exchange Note pursuant to an Exchange Offer,
the Company may instruct the Trustee in an Officers' Certificate to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note of like tenor and 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.
(d)    By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Restricted Legend (or any beneficial interest in such a Note), each Holder thereof and each owner of a beneficial interest therein acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note (and any such beneficial interest) set forth in this First Supplemental Indenture and in the Restricted Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note (and any such beneficial interest) only in accordance with this First Supplemental Indenture and such legend.
Section 2.02.  Paying Agent; Depository.  (a) The Company appoints the Trustee as the initial Paying Agent of the Company for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes, and the office of the Trustee located in the City of New York, be and hereby is, designated as the office or agency where the Notes may be presented for payment and where notices to or demands upon the Company in respect of the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be issued may be served. The Company may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of any paying agent or approve a change in the office through which the paying agent acts.
(b)    The Depository shall initially be DTC and any and all successors thereto appointed as Depository by the Company.
Section 2.03.  Registration, Transfer and Exchange.  (a) Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depository thereof, will bear the DTC Legend.
(i)Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depository.  Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees, except (y) as set forth in ý(iii) of this Section 2.03ý(a) and (z) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with customary procedures of the Depository and in compliance with this Section 2.03 and Section 2.04.
(ii)Agent Members will have no rights under this First Supplemental Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depository or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security.
(iii)If (x) the Depository notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a written request from the Depository, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of 









such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depository, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed canceled.  If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend.  If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend, provided that any Holder of any such Certificated Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note will have the right upon presentation to the Trustee of a duly completed Certificate of Beneficial Ownership after the Restricted Period to exchange such Certificated Note for a Certificated Note of like tenor and amount that does not bear the Restricted Legend, registered in the name of such Holder.
(b)    Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the Holder thereof or its nominee.
(c)    (i) Global Note to Global Note.  If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (y) record a decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note.  Any beneficial interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains such an interest.
(ii)    Global Note to Certificated Note.  If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a Certificated Note, the Trustee will (y) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or owner, as applicable.
(iii)    Certificated Note to Global Note.  If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Certificated Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.
(iv)    Certificated Note to Certificated Note.  If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel the Certificated Note being transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the Holder of the canceled Certificated Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or 









unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof.
Section 2.04.  Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange.  (a) The transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.04 and Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Global Note (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository.  The Security Registrar shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with the preceding sentence.
(b)    Subject to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.04, the transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) of the type set forth in column A below for a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) of the type set forth opposite in column B below may only be made in compliance with the certification requirements (if any) described in the clause of this paragraph set forth opposite in column C below.

(iii)The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (y) a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate or (z) a duly completed Regulation S Certificate, and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer or exchange is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States; provided that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required.  In the event that (y) the requested transfer or exchange takes place after the Restricted Period and a duly completed Regulation S Certificate is delivered to the Security Registrar or (z) a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend is surrendered for transfer or exchange, upon transfer or exchange the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend.
(iv)The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Security Registrar a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate.

If the requested transfer involves a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note, the Person requesting the transfer must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Security Registrar a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate or and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.  If the requested transfer or exchange involves a beneficial interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note, no certification is required and the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend.
(c)    No certification is required in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein):
(i)after such Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need for current public information; provided that the Company has provided the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate to that effect, and the Company may require from any Person requesting a transfer or exchange in reliance upon this clause (i) an opinion of counsel and any other reasonable certifications and evidence in order to support such certificate; or
(ii)(y) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise or (z) which is validly tendered for exchange into an Exchange Note pursuant to an Exchange Offer.
Any Certificated Note delivered in reliance upon this paragraph will not bear the Restricted Legend.
(d)    The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the transfer or exchange of a Note (or a beneficial interest therein), and the Company will have the right to inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to the Trustee.
(e)    The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this First Supplemental Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depository 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 First Supplemental Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Promptly after acceptance of a Certificate of Beneficial Ownership with respect to such a beneficial interest, the Trustee will cause such beneficial interest to be exchanged for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Permanent Offshore Global 









Note, and will (x) permanently reduce the principal amount of such Temporary Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest and (y) increase the principal amount of such Permanent Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest.
(c)    Notwithstanding paragraph (b), if after the Restricted Period any Initial Purchaser owns a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note, such Initial Purchaser may, upon written request to the Trustee accompanied by a certification as to its status as an Initial Purchaser, exchange such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note, and the Trustee will comply with such request and will (x) permanently reduce the principal amount of such Temporary Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest and (y) increase the principal amount of such Permanent Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any owner of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note shall not be entitled to receive payment of principal or interest on such beneficial interest or other amounts in respect of such beneficial interest until such beneficial interest is exchanged for an interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note or transferred for an interest in another Global Note or a Certificated Note.

Any Additional Notes and the existing Notes will rank equally and ratably in right of payment and constitute a single series for all purposes under the Indenture and all references to the relevant Notes shall include the Additional Notes unless the context otherwise requires. 
(c)Stated Maturity. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2053 (the “Stated Maturity”).

(c)The Trustee shall provide to the Holders of the Notes notice of any Event of Default or default with respect to the Notes within 90 days after the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of such Event of Default or default.

(d)The Trustee shall have no right or obligation under the Indenture or otherwise to exercise any remedies on behalf of any Holders of the Notes in connection with any default, unless such remedies are available under the Indenture and the Trustee is directed to exercise such remedies pursuant to and subject to the conditions of Section 7.12 of the Base Indenture, provided, however, that this provision shall not affect the rights of the Trustee with respect to any Events of Default as set forth in Section 2.07(b) that may occur with respect to the Notes.

ING U.S., Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ______________, or registered assigns, the principal sum of $_____ on May 15, 2053 (the “Stated Maturity”) (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Stated Maturity).  The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from May 16, 2013 (the “Original Issue Date”) to, but excluding, May 15, 2023, at the annual rate of 5.650%, (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2013 (each, a “Fixed-Rate Interest Payment Date”), subject to deferral as set forth herein. In the event that any Fixed-Rate Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment due on that date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, and no interest will accrue as a result of that postponement. From, and including, May 15, 2023 until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment, the Company promises to pay such interest at an annual rate equal to Three-Month LIBOR plus 3.58%, (computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed) quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, beginning on August 15, 2023, or if any of these days is not a Business Day, on the next Business Day, except that if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, the immediately preceding Business Day (each, a “Floating-Rate Interest Payment Date”, and each Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date and each Floating Rate Interest Payment Date being hereinafter referred to as an “Interest Payment Date”), subject to deferral as set forth herein. 
Payment of Interest.  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date, will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on May 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the relevant Fixed-Rate Interest Payment Date, or February 1, May 1, August 1 or November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the relevant Floating-Rate Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Date”).
