Each certificate or opinion with respect to which compliance with a condition provided for in this Indenture (other than an Officers’
Certificate provided under Section 9.06) must comply with the provisions of Section 314(e) of the Trust Indenture Act and must include: 

(1) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; 

(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 such person, 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 condition has been satisfied; and 

(4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition has been satisfied. 

Section 1.03 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 of the Company 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, but without
investigation, should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which this certificate or opinion is based is 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 of the Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care, but without
investigation, 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 or any Note, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. 

Section 1.04 Acts of Holders. 

(1) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by or under this Indenture to be made,
given 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. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such
action will become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (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, or of
the holding by any Person of a Note, will be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 5.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner
provided in this Section. 
 (2) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any
reasonable manner that the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine, and the Trustee may, in any instance, require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this
Section. 
 (3) The ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and the date
of the termination of holding the same, will be proven by the Note Register. 
 (4) The Company may, in the circumstances permitted by the
Trust Indenture Act, set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any other act authorized or permitted to be given or taken by
Holders. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, any such record date will be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such
consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, and only such Persons, will be entitled to make, give or take such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action will be valid or
effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date. 
 (5) Any effective request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other Act by the Holder of any Note will 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 or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such Act is made upon such Note. 

(6) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to
all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of which may do so in accordance with such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a
Holder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount in accordance with this paragraph will have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part. 

(7) Without limiting the generality of this Section 1.04, a Holder, including a Depositary that is a Holder of a Global Note, may make,
give or take, by a proxy or proxies, duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act provided in or under this Indenture or the Notes to be made, given or taken by Holders, and a
Depositary that is a Holder of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through such Depositary’s Applicable Procedures. The Company may fix a record date for the purpose of
determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note entitled under the Applicable Procedures of such Depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons,
will be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action will be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date. Promptly upon any record date being set in accordance with this Section 1.04, the Company, at its own expense,
will cause notice of the record date, the proposed action by Holders and the expiration date to be given to the Trustee in writing and the Holders in the manner set forth in Section 1.05.

 Section 1.05 Required Notices or Demands. 

Any notice or communication by the Company or the Trustee to the other is duly given if in writing and delivered in Person or delivered by
registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), facsimile or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery to the other’s address:

If to the Company:         Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc. 

1110 West Commercial Boulevard, Suite 100 

Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33309 

Attention: Frank C. Wilcox 
 If
to the Trustee:    UMB Bank National Association 
   5555 San Felipe, Suite 870 

  Houston, Texas 77056 

  Attn: Mauri Cowen, Senior Vice President 

  Office: (713) 300-0587 

  Fax:    214-389-5949 

  mauri.cowen@umb.com 

The Company or the Trustee, by notice to the other, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

 Any notice required or permitted to be given to a Holder under the provisions of this Indenture will be deemed to be properly delivered
by being deposited postage prepaid in a post office letter box in the United States addressed to such Holder at the address of such Holder as shown on the Note Register. Any report in accordance with Section 313 of the Trust Indenture Act will
be transmitted in compliance with subsection (c) therein. If the Company delivers a notice or communication to Holders, the Company will deliver a copy to the Trustee at the same time. 

In any case where notice to Holders of Notes is delivered by mail, neither the failure to deliver such notice nor any defect in any notice so
delivered to any particular Holder of a Note will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Notes. Any notice that is delivered in the manner herein provided will be conclusively presumed to have been duly given or
provided. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it will be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as will be made with the approval of the Trustee will constitute a
sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
 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 will be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders of Notes will be filed with the Trustee, but such filing will not be a
condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision herein, where
this Indenture provides for notice to any Holder of a Global Note, or of an interest therein, such notice will be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Global Note (or its designee) according to the Applicable Procedures of such
Depositary prescribed for giving such notice. 
 Section 1.06 Language of Notices. 

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act required or permitted under this Indenture will be in the
English language, except that, if the Company so elects, any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication. 

Section 1.07 Incorporation by Reference of Trust Indenture Act; Conflicts. 

Whenever this Indenture refers to a provision of the Trust Indenture Act, the provision is incorporated by reference in and made a part of this
Indenture. The Trust Indenture Act term “obligor” used in this Indenture means the Company and any successor obligor upon the Notes. 

All other terms used in this Indenture that are defined by the Trust Indenture Act, reference to another statute or Commission rule under the
Trust Indenture Act have the meanings so assigned to them as of the date of this Indenture. If and to the extent that any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision included in this Indenture that is required
to be included in this Indenture by any of Sections 310 to 317, inclusive of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision will control. If any provision of this Indenture limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed by
Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act, the duties imposed by Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act will control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so
modified or excluded, the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act will be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or will be excluded, as the case may be.

Board Resolution, Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture establishing the terms of any Note that specifically states that such provision will apply in lieu hereof) payment need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but
such payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, at the Stated Maturity or Maturity or on any such other payment date, as the

National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee may

electronic signature and is not under any obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by such Trustee pursuant to procedures approved by the Trustee.

 Article II 

THE NOTES 

Section 2.01 Forms Generally. 

The Notes, the Trustee’s certificate of authentication and the Global Notes will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-l and Exhibit A-2, as applicable, which are a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule
or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). The Company will provide any such notations, legends or endorsements to the Trustee in writing. Each Note will be dated the date of its
authentication. The terms and provisions contained in the Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made a part of this Indenture and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, agree to such terms and
provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note irreconcilably conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture will govern and be controlling. 

Section 2.02 Definitive Notes. 

The Initial Notes and the Exchange Notes will be issued initially in the form of one or more Definitive Notes, unless, before the issuance of
such Initial Notes or Exchange Notes, the Company has determined that the Notes may be represented by Global Notes and has so notified the Trustee, in which event the Initial Notes and/or Exchange Notes will be issued in the form of one or more
Global Notes. Except as provided in Section 2.07, Holders of Definitive Notes will not be entitled to transfer Definitive Notes in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Notes, and owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be
entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Notes. 
 Section 2.03 Global Notes. 

Each Global Note issued under this Indenture will be deposited with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the Depositary,
and registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee thereof, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of any Global Note may from time to time be increased or
decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary as hereinafter provided. Any adjustment of the aggregate principal amount of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding
Notes represented thereby will be made by the Trustee in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.07 hereof and will be made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary. 

Section 2.04 Restricted Notes. 

Each Restricted Definitive Note and Restricted Global Note will bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”) OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OR (B) AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, INCLUDING (BUT NOT LIMITED TO) IN ACCORDANCE AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN
ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, IF REQUESTED, OR (II) UNLESS SOLD IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT. 

The Private Placement Legend set forth above will be removed and a new Note of like tenor and principal amount without such Private Placement
Legend will be executed by the Company, and upon written request of the Company (together with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel), the Trustee will authenticate and deliver such new Note to the respective Holder, if legal
counsel to the Holder or owner of beneficial interests requesting the removal of such Private Placement Legend delivers to the Trustee, any Registrar and Paying Agent (if a different Person than the Trustee) and the Company an opinion of counsel in
compliance with this Indenture and additionally opining that the Note is eligible for immediate resale, without any remaining holding period, under Rule 144 without regard to the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current
public information required under Rule 144 as to such securities. 
 Section 2.05 Execution and Authentication. 

Notes will be executed on behalf of the Company by any Authorized Officer and may (but need not) have the Company’s corporate seal or a
facsimile thereof reproduced thereon. The signature of an Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time of execution, Authorized Officers of the
Company will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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. 

  
 10 













 The Trustee or an Authenticating Agent will authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes for
original issue in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000,000 upon one or more Company Orders and an Opinion of Counsel. In addition, the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent will, upon receipt of a Company Order, Opinion of Counsel and
Officers’ Certificate, authenticate and deliver any Exchange Notes for an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $100,000,000 specified in such Company Order for Exchange Notes issued hereunder. The aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
Notes at any time may not exceed the amount set forth in the foregoing sentence, except as otherwise provided in this Article II. The Notes will be issued only in registered form without coupons and in minimum denominations of $100,000 and any
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Trustee will not be required to authenticate any Notes if the issue of such Notes
under this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Notes and this Indenture, or otherwise affect the trustee in a manner that is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by
counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 
 No Note will 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 or on behalf of the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of
its authorized signatories. Such certificate upon any Note will be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Section 2.06 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar will keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their
transfer and exchange. The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of the Note for all purposes. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The
term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar, and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to
any Holder; provided that no such removal or replacement will be effective until a successor Paying Agent or Registrar will have been appointed by the Company and will have accepted such appointment. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of
the name and address of any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee will act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may
act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes and,
in the event that any Notes are issued in global form, to initially act as custodian with respect to the Global Notes. In the event that the Trustee will not be or will cease to be Registrar with respect the Notes, it will have the right to examine
the Note Register at all reasonable times. There will be only one Note Register. 
 Section 2.07 Registration of Transfer and
Exchange 
 (1) Except as otherwise provided in or under this Indenture, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note, the
Company will execute, and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes denominated as authorized in or under this Indenture of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions. 
 Except as otherwise provided in or under this
Indenture, at the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes containing identical terms and provisions, in any authorized denominations (minimum denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) and
of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency for such purpose. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company will execute, and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver,
subject to the terms hereof, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Notes issued upon any registration
of transfer or exchange of Notes will be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same debt and entitling the Holders thereof 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 or redemption will (if so required by the
Company or the Registrar for such Note) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar for such Note duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing. 

  
 11 













 No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, any
redemption or repayment of Notes or any conversion or exchange of Notes for other types of securities or property, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be
imposed in connection with the transfer or exchange of the Notes from the Holder requesting such transfer or exchange. 
 Except as
otherwise provided in or under this Indenture, the Company will not be required to (i) 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 selection for
redemption of Notes under Section 10.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Note, or portion thereof, so selected for redemption, except in the case of any Note
to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed. 
 Any Registrar appointed in accordance with Section 2.06 hereof will
provide to the Trustee such information as the Trustee may reasonably require in connection with the delivery by such Registrar of Notes upon transfer or exchange of Notes. No Registrar will be required to make registrations of transfer or exchange
of Notes during any periods designated in the Notes or in this Indenture as periods during which such registration of transfers and exchanges need not be made. 

The Trustee will have no 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. 
 Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent will have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the
Depositary. 
 (2) When Definitive Notes are presented by a Holder to the Registrar with a request to register the transfer of such
Definitive Notes or to exchange such Definitive Notes for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar will register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for
such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Definitive Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange will be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar,
duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 (3) A Global Note may not be transferred
except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes if: (i) the Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or such Depositary has ceased to be
a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, (ii) the Company determines that the Notes are no longer to be represented by Global Notes and so
notifies the Trustee or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes and the Depositary or its participant(s) has requested the issuance of Definitive Notes. Any Global Note exchanged in accordance with
clause (i) or (ii) above will be so exchanged in whole and not in part, and any Global Note exchanged in accordance with clause (iii) above may be exchanged in whole or from time to time in part as directed by the Depositary. Upon the
occurrence of any of the events in (i), (ii) or (iii) above, Definitive Notes will be issued in fully registered form, without interest coupons, will have an aggregate Principal Amount equal to that of the Global Note or portion thereof to be
so exchanged, will be registered in such names and be in such authorized denominations as the Depositary will instruct the Trustee in writing and will bear such legends as provided herein. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or
in part, as provided in Section 2.09 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, in accordance with this Section 2.07 or Section 2.09 hereof, will be
authenticated and delivered in the form of, and will be, a Global Note, except as otherwise provided herein. A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.07(3); however, beneficial interests in a
Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.07(4) hereof. 
 Any Global Note to be exchanged in whole will be
surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee. With regard to any Global Note to be exchanged in part, either such Global Note will be so surrendered for exchange or, if the Trustee is acting as custodian for the Depositary or its nominee with
respect to such Global Note, the principal amount thereof will be reduced by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee. Upon any such surrender or adjustment,
the Trustee will authenticate and deliver the Note issuable on such exchange to or upon the order of the Depositary or an authorized representative thereof. 

(4) The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures and this Section 2.07. 

  
 12 













 (5) A Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note unless
the Company determines that the Notes may be represented by Global Notes and so notifies the Trustee. After the Company has determined that the Notes may be represented by Global Notes and so notifies the Trustee, then upon receipt by the Trustee of
a Definitive Note duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, together with written instructions from such Holder directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Registrar to make, an
adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to
be credited with such increase, the Trustee will cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Registrar to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Registrar, the aggregate
principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged, and will credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a
beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so cancelled. If no Global Notes are then outstanding, the Company will issue and the Trustee will authenticate, upon Company Order, a new Global Note in the
appropriate principal amount. 
 (6) At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive
Notes or a particular Global Note has been repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.12 hereof. At any time prior to such
cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes
represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof
in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

(7) No Restricted Note will be transferred or exchanged except in compliance with the Private Placement Legend or as provided in accordance
with Section 2.08. In addition to the provisions for transfer and exchange set forth in this Section 2.07, the Trustee, any Registrar and Paying Agent (if a different Person than the Trustee) and the Company may, prior to effecting any
requested transfer or exchange of any Restricted Notes, other than an exchange in accordance with Section 2.08, require that legal counsel to the Holder or owner of beneficial interests requesting such transfer or exchange deliver to the
Trustee, any Registrar and Paying Agent (if a different Person than the Trustee) and the Company an Opinion of Counsel in compliance with this Indenture and additionally opining that the transfer or exchange is in compliance with the requirements of
the Private Placement Legend and that the Note issued to the transferee or in exchange for the Restricted Note may be issued free of the Private Placement Legend. Any un-transferred or un-exchanged balance of a Restricted Note will be reissued to the Holder with the Private Placement Legend unless the Private Placement Legend may be omitted in accordance with Section 2.04, as evidenced by the
Opinion of Counsel. 
 Section 2.08 Exchange Offer. 

Upon the occurrence of an Exchange Offer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will issue, and upon receipt of a
Company Order in accordance with Section 2.05 hereof, the Trustee will authenticate, (i) Unrestricted Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Restricted Definitive Notes tendered in such
Exchange Offer for acceptance by Persons that certify in the applicable Letters of Transmittal that (x) they are not Participating Broker-Dealers, (y) they are not participating in a distribution of the applicable Exchange Notes and
(z) they are not Affiliates of the Company, and accepted for exchange in such Exchange Offer or, if permitted by the Company, (ii) one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes tendered in such Exchange Offer for acceptance by Persons that certify in the applicable Letters of Transmittal that (x) they are not Participating Broker-Dealers, (y) they are not
participating in a distribution of the applicable Exchange Notes and (z) they are not Affiliates of the Company, and accepted for exchange in such Exchange Offer. Concurrently with the issuance of such Unrestricted Global Notes upon exchange of
Restricted Global Notes, the Trustee will cause the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Restricted Global Notes to be reduced accordingly, and the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Persons designated
the Holders of Restricted Definitive Notes so accepted Unrestricted Definitive Notes in the applicable principal amount. Any Notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of such Exchange Offer, and Exchange Notes issued in connection with
such Exchange Offer, will be treated as a single class of securities under this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, the only remedy for breach of registration rights by the Company is the Additional Interest set forth in Section 2(e) of the
Registration Rights Agreement. 
 Section 2.09 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 2.09, the Company will execute and the
Trustee will authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note containing identical terms, of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

  
 13 













 If there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the
Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company will execute, and upon the Company’s request, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new
Note containing identical terms, of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.09, in case the outstanding principal balance of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, or is about to be redeemed by the Company pursuant to
Article X hereof, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay or redeem such Note, as the case may be. 
 Upon the
issuance of any new Note under this Section, 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 the
Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Note issued in accordance with this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note will
constitute a separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note will be at any time enforceable by anyone, and will be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all
other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section, as amended or supplemented in accordance with this Indenture with
respect to particular Notes or generally, will (to the extent lawful) be exclusive and will (to the extent lawful) preclude all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

Section 2.10 Payment of Interest; Rights to Interest Preserved. 

Any interest on any Note that will be payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Person
in whose name such Note is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. 
 Any interest
on any Note that will be payable, but will not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Note (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) will cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in either clause (1) or (2) below: 

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Person in whose name such Note will be registered at the close of
business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which will be fixed in the following manner. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on such Note and the
date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company will deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or will make arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon, the Company will fix
or cause to be fixed a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which will be no less than 15 days from the proposed payment. The Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense
of the Company) will cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be delivered to the Holder of such Note at the Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date. The Company may, at its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper of general circulation in the City of New
York, New York, but such publication will not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been delivered as
aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest will be paid to the Person in whose name such Note will be registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date. 

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which such Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment under this Clause, such payment will be deemed practicable by the
Trustee. 
 Unless otherwise provided in or under this Indenture or the Notes, at the option of the Company, interest on Notes that bear
interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address will appear in the Note Register or by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the United States. 

  
 14 













 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 and Section 2.07, each
Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note will carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note. 

Section 2.11 Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name such Note is registered in the Note Register as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 2.07 and Section 2.10) interest on such Note and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Note will be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee will be affected by notice to the contrary. 

No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Note held on its behalf by a Depositary will have any rights under this Indenture with
respect to such Global Note, and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent
or the Registrar will 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. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein will prevent the Company, the Trustee, any Paying
Agent or the Registrar from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the applicable Depositary, as a Holder, with respect to a Global Note or impair, as between such Depositary and the owners of
beneficial interests in such Global Note, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such Depositary (or its nominee) as the Holder of such Global Note. 

Section 2.12 Cancellation. 

All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange will, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee,
be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Note, as well as Notes surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose, will be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes
previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered will be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. No Notes will be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any
Notes cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by or under this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee will be disposed of in accordance with its procedure for the disposition of cancelled Notes, and the
Trustee, upon the written request of the Company, will deliver to the Company a certificate of such disposition, unless by a Company Order the Company shall direct that cancelled Notes shall be returned to the Company. 

Section 2.13 Computation of Interest. 

Interest will be computed from and including the original issue date of the Notes to but excluding November 30, 2026, or the earlier
redemption date contemplated by Article X of this Indenture, at the rate of 5.625% per annum (subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.14 hereof), computed on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of 12 30-day months and payable semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Dollar amounts resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded up. 
 In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not
a Business Day (as defined for purposes of this Section 2.13 and the Notes below), the interest payment due on that date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of that
postponement. The term “Business Day” as used in this Section 2.13 and in the Notes means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are generally authorized or required
by law or executive order to be closed. 
 Section 2.14 Interest Rate Adjustment. 

From and after the original issue date of the Notes, in the event the Notes are downgraded by the Ratings Agency below A- but equal to or above BBB-, the rate of interest on the Notes shall increase by 0.50% to 6.125%. If the rating is subsequently increased back to A- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to 5.625%. If the rating is further downgraded to BB+ or lower, the rate of interest will increase by another 0.50% to 6.625%. If the rating is subsequently
improved back to BBB- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to 6.125%. Each adjustment required by any event described in this Section 2.14 will take effect from the first Interest Payment Date following the date on which the
Company receives notice that such event has occurred. As such, interest will not accrue at such increased or decreased rate until the next Interest Payment Date following the date on which the event occurs. If the Ratings Agency changes its rating
of the Notes more than once prior to any particular Interest Payment Date or ceases to provide a rating of the Notes, the last change by Ratings Agency prior to such Interest Payment Date 

  
 15 













 
will control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease with respect to the Notes described in this Section 2.14 relating to Ratings Agency’s action. The Company shall
promptly thereafter provide the holders of the Notes with notice of any such change in the rating of the Notes. If the interest rate payable on the Notes is increased or decreased as described above, the term “interest,” as used with
respect to the Notes, will be deemed to include any such additional or lesser interest unless the context otherwise requires. For the avoidance of doubt, no interest rate increase or decrease described in this Section 2.14 will have any effect
on interest that will have accrued on the Notes prior to such date or have any other retroactive effect. 
 Section 2.15 CUSIP
Numbers. 
 The Company may issue the Notes with one or more “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use). The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. The Trustee may use “CUSIP” numbers in notices (including, but not limited to, notices of redemption or exchange) as a convenience to Holders; 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 (including any notice of redemption or exchange) and that reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notice will not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. 

Article III 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE 
 Section 3.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, on receipt of a Company Order, at the expense of the Company, will execute
proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture when: 
 (1) either 

(a) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Notes that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been
replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.09 and (ii) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust,
as provided in Section 9.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (b) all Notes that have not been delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable, (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or (iii) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called for redemption within one
year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be
deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including the principal of, and interest
on, such Notes, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Notes which have become due and payable) or to the Maturity thereof, as the case may be; 

(2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Outstanding Notes; and 

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 5.07 and, if money will have been deposited with the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.01(1)(b), the
obligations of the Company and the Trustee with respect to the Notes under Section 3.03 and Section 9.03, will survive. 

Section 3.02 Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. 

(1) The Company may, at its option and at any time, elect to have Section 3.02(2) or Section 3.02(3) be applied to such Outstanding
Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Section 3.02. Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance may be effected only with respect to all, and not less than all, of the Outstanding Notes. 

(2) Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 3.02(2), the Company will be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to such Outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth in clause (4) of this Section 3.02 are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance
means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding Notes, which will thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 3.02(5) and the
other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) of this paragraph, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the
expense of the Company, will execute proper instruments 

  
 16 













 
acknowledging the same), except for the following, which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Notes to receive,
solely from the trust fund described in Section 3.02(4)(a) and as more fully set forth in this Section 3.02 and Section 3.03, payments in respect of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due,
(ii) the obligations of the Company and the Trustee with respect to such Notes under Section 2.07, Section 2.09, Section 9.02 and Section 9.03, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and (iv) this Section 3.02 and Section 3.03. The Company may exercise its option under this Section 3.02(2) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 3.02(3) with respect to such Notes. 

(3) Upon the Company’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 3.02(3), the Company will be released from its
obligations under clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 9.04 and under Section 9.05, Section 9.06 and Section 9.07 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 3.02(4) are satisfied (“Covenant
Defeasance”), and such Notes will thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent, declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with any such
covenant, but will continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that with respect to such Outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with, and will have no
liability in respect of, any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or any such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant or by reason
of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document, and such omission to comply will not constitute a default, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes
will be unaffected thereby.
 (4) The following will be the conditions to application of Section 3.02(2) or Section 3.02(3) to any
Outstanding Notes: 
 (a) The Company will irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee
satisfying the requirements of Section 5.08 who will agree to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.02 applicable to it) trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for,
and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders: (i) an amount in Dollars, (ii) Government Obligations that through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not
later than one day before the due date of any payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Notes, money or (iii) a combination thereof, in any case, in an amount sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal
and interest, 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 will be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying
trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and interest, if any, on such Outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest or the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be. 

(b) Such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or
any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound. 
 (c) No Event of
Default or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to such Notes, will have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit, and, solely in the case of Legal Defeasance under
Section 3.02(2), no Event of Default, or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, under Section 4.01 will have occurred and be continuing at any time during the period ending on and including the
91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition to Legal Defeasance under Section 3.02(2) will not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 

(d) In the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee, stating that (i) an Internal Revenue Service ruling has been received by the Company or has been published or (ii) since the date of this Indenture there has been a change in applicable federal income tax law, in either case to
the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of independent counsel will confirm that, the Holders of such Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be
subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred. 

(e) In the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee to the effect that the Holders of such Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred. 

  
 17 













 (f) The Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, under this Indenture have been satisfied. 

(g) If the moneys or Government Obligations or combination thereof, as the case may be, deposited under Section 3.02(4)(a) above are
sufficient to pay the principal of, and interest, if any, on such Notes, provided such Notes are redeemed on a particular Redemption Date, the Company will have given the Trustee irrevocable instructions to redeem such Notes on such date and to
provide notice of such redemption to Holders as provided in or under this Indenture. 
 (h) The Trustee will have received such other
documents, assurances and Opinions of Counsel as the Trustee will have reasonably required. 
 (5) Subject to the provisions of the last
paragraph of Section 9.03, all money and Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 3.02(5), the “Trustee”) in accordance with
Section 3.02(4)(a) in respect of any Outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (other than
the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and interest, but such money and Government Obligations
need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any
tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited in accordance with this Section 3.02 or the principal or 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 the Outstanding Notes. 
 Section 3.03 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.03, all money and Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee in
accordance with Section 3.01 or Section 3.02 will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of such Notes subject to discharge under Section 3.01 or Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under
Section 3.02 and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company, acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and interest
for whose payment such money has or Government Obligations have been deposited with or received by the Trustee; but such money and Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds, except to the extent required by law. 

Section 3.04 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee appointed in accordance with Section 3.02(4)(a)) or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any
moneys or Government Obligations deposited in accordance with Section 3.01(1) or Section 3.02(4)(a) to pay any principal of, or interest, if any, on the Notes, by reason of any legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes will be revived and reinstated as though no such deposit had occurred, until such time as
the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such moneys and Government Obligations to pay the principal of, and interest, if any, on the Notes as contemplated by Section 3.01 or Section 3.02 as the
case may be; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on the Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations as aforesaid, the Company will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of
such Notes to receive such payment from the funds held by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) or Paying Agent. 
 Article IV 

REMEDIES 

Section 4.01 Events of Default; Acceleration. 

An “Event of Default” means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether
it will be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or in accordance with any judgment, decree, or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 

(1) the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case

the Company under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $20,000,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or is created or incurred
in the future, which default (i) constitutes a failure to pay any portion of the principal of such indebtedness when due and payable after the expiration of any applicable grace period or (ii) results in such indebtedness becoming due or
being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it otherwise would have become due and payable without, in the case of clause (i), such indebtedness having been discharged or, in the case of clause (ii), without such indebtedness having
been discharged or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled. 
 Upon becoming aware of any Event of Default, the Company will
promptly deliver to the Trustee a written statement specifying the Event of Default. 
 If an Event of Default described in
Section 4.01(1) or Section 4.01(2) occurs, then the principal amount of all of the Outstanding Notes and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Outstanding Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration
or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, and the Company waives demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, notice of protest and all other notices with respect to such Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may also pursue any other available remedy to collect the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

Section 4.02 Failure to Make Payments. 

If an Event of Default described in Section 4.01(3) or Section 4.01(4) occurs, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable with respect to such Notes, with interest upon the overdue principal, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any overdue installments of
interest at the rate or respective rates, as the case may be, provided for or with respect to such Notes or, if no such rate or rates are so provided, at the rate or respective rates, as the case may be, of interest borne by such Notes, and, in
addition thereto, such further amount of money as will be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other
amounts due to the Trustee under Section 5.07. 
 If the Company fails to pay the money it is required to pay the Trustee, the Trustee,
in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any
other obligor upon such Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, wherever situated. 

The Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as
the Trustee will deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any
other proper remedy. 
 Upon an Event of Default, the Company may not declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase,
acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock, other than: (i) any dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, any class of
Company’s common stock; (ii) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, the issuance of stock under any such plan in the future or the redemption or repurchase of any such
rights pursuant thereto; (iii) as a result of a reclassification of Company’s capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of Company’s capital stock for another class or series of Company’s capital stock;
(iv) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Company’s capital stock in accordance with the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or (v) purchases of any class
of Company’s common stock related to the issuance of common stock or rights under any benefit plans for Company’s directors, officers or employees or any of Company’s dividend reinvestment plans.

 Section 4.03 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its property or its creditors, the Trustee
will be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In
particular, the Trustee will be authorized to: 
 (1) file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided
for in the Notes, of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of such Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel) and of the Holders of such Notes allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(2) collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee will consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders and to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements,
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due hereunder. 
 No provision of this Indenture will be deemed
to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, the Trustee may vote on behalf of the Holders for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and may be a member of a creditor or other similar committee.

 Section 4.04 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any
of the Notes or the production of such Notes in any related proceeding, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee will be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment will, after provision for the
payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

Section 4.05 Application of Money Collected. 

Any money collected by the Trustee in accordance with this Article IV or, after an Event of Default, any money or other property distributable
in respect of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture will be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any interest, upon
presentation of the Notes and the notation on such Notes of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender of such Notes if fully paid: 

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee (including any predecessor trustee), acting in any capacity hereunder, under
Section 5.07; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of, and any interest on, the Notes, in respect
of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and 

THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. 

Section 4.06 Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or any Notes, or
for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under this Indenture, unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given
written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes; 

  
 20 













 (2) the Holders of not less than 30% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
will have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under this Indenture; 

(3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given
to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders will have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing
of, any provision of this 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 this Indenture, except
in the manner provided in this Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 
 Section 4.07 Unconditional
Right of Holders to Payments. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note will have the right, which
is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.07 and Section 2.10) any interest on such Note on the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of
redemption, on the Redemption Date), and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and such rights will not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 4.08 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holder will be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions under this Indenture, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 4.09 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in the last paragraph of
Section 2.09, no right or remedy conferred in this Indenture upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy will, to the extent permitted by law, be
cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Indenture or now or in the future existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Indenture or otherwise will not
prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 4.10 Delay or Omission Not
Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time and as
often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 
 Section 4.11 Control by Holders. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes, provided that: 

(1) such direction will not violate any rule of law or this Indenture or the Notes; 

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; and 

(3) the Trustee will have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee will determine in good faith that the proceeding so
directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 

  
 21 













 Section 4.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes,
waive any past default under this Indenture and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Note, or in respect of a covenant or provision of this Indenture which, under Article VIII, cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note. 
 Upon any such waiver, such default will cease to exist, and any
Event of Default arising from such default will be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any consequent right. 

Section 4.13 Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Notes by his acceptance of such Notes will be deemed to have agreed, that any court
may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit
of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 4.13 will not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, any Holder or any group of Holders holding in the aggregate more than 10% in
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Notes on or after the Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Notes (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 
 Article V 

THE TRUSTEE 

Section 5.01 Duties of Trustee. 

(1) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such rights and powers vested in it hereby and use the
same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

(2) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

(a) the duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions hereof, and the Trustee need perform only those duties that
are specifically set forth herein and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; 

(b) the Trustee shall not be liable for any acts or omissions, except for such losses, damages or expenses which have been finally adjudicated
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted from the Trustee’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; and 

(c) in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements hereof; however, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether
or not they conform on their face to the requirements hereof (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 

(3) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision hereof that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs
(1) and (2) of this Section 5.01 and Section 5.02. 
 (4) No provision hereof will require the Trustee to expend or risk
its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder has offered to the Trustee security and indemnity
satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (5) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by it
except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee shall be held un-invested and need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 (6) the Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by or under this Indenture at the request or direction of any Holder(s) under this Indenture, unless such Holder(s) will have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity

(7) the Trustee will not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,

facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee will determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it will be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable notice, the books, records and premises of the Company,
personally or by agent or attorney, at the sole cost of the Company, and will incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

attorneys, and the Trustee will not be responsible for any acts or omissions on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

good faith; 
 (10) the Trustee will not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a

 (16) in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss
or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; and 

(17) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into (i) the performance of or compliance with any of the covenants or
agreements set forth herein, (ii) the occurrence of any default, or the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Indenture or any other agreement, instrument or document.

Notes, the Trustee will deliver to all Holders entitled to receive reports in accordance with Section 6.03(3) notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default will have been cured or waived; provided, however, that,
except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Note, the Trustee will be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice
is in the best interest of the Holders. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Notes. 

Section 5.04 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, will be taken as the statements of the
Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee
represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder, and that the statements made by it in any Statement of Eligibility on Form
T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent will be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of the Notes or the proceeds thereof. The Trustee will not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it will not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds
from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision hereof, it will not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and it will not
be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in connection with the sale of the Notes or under this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 

Section 5.05 May Hold Notes. 

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Registrar or any other Person that may be an agent of the Trustee or the Company,
in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Section 310(b) and Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights that it would have if it
were not the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Registrar or such other Person. 
 The Trustee is subject to 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 been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) of Trust Indenture Act to the extent
indicated. 
 Section 5.06 Money Held in Trust. 

Except as provided in Section 3.02(5), Section 3.03 and Section 9.03, money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and will be held un-invested. The Trustee will be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise
agreed in writing with the Company. 
 Section 5.07 Compensation and Reimbursement. 

The Company agrees: 
 (1) to pay
to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by the Trustee hereunder (which compensation will not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

  
 24 













 (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request
for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except
any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to the Trustee’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; and 

(3) to indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, suit,
action, liability or expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Trustee’s agents, legal counsel, accountants and experts), including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the
income of the Trustee), arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 5.07) and defending
itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder, or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this
Section, except to the extent that any such loss, liability or expense was due to the Trustee’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
non-appealable order. 
 The obligations of the Company under this Section 5.07 will survive
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture,
the Trustee will have a lien prior to the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of, or interest on, Notes. Such lien will survive the satisfaction and
discharge hereof and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Any compensation or expense incurred by the Trustee after a default
specified by Section 4.01 is intended to constitute an expense of administration under any then applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law. “Trustee” for purposes of this Section 5.07 will include any predecessor Trustee, but the
negligence or bad faith of any Trustee will not affect the rights of any other Trustee under this Section 5.07. The provisions of this Section 5.07 will, to the extent permitted by law, survive any termination of this Indenture (including,
without limitation, termination in accordance with any Bankruptcy Laws) and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 

Section 5.08 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 

(1) There will at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, any
state thereof or the District of Columbia, eligible under Section 310(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act and that has a combined capital and surplus (computed in
accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $50,000,000 and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. The Trustee will also satisfy the requirements of Section 310(a)(5) of the
Trust Indenture Act. If at any time the Trustee will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article V. 

(2) The Trustee will comply with Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that there will be excluded from the
operation of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act this Indenture or any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the
requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act are met. 
 Section 5.09 Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (1) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee in
accordance with this Article V will become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with Section 5.10. 

(2) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Notes by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of
acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 5.10 will not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, at the Company’s expense, petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (3) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Notes
by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Trustee and the Company. 
 If at any
time: 
 (a) the Trustee will fail to comply with the obligations imposed upon it under Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act with
respect to Notes after written request therefor by the Company or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months, 

  
 25 













 (b) the Trustee will cease to be eligible under Section 5.08 and will fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Company or any such Holder, or 
 (c) the Trustee will become incapable of acting or will be adjudged
a bankrupt, insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property will be appointed or any public officer will 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, (i) the Company, by or in accordance with a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to the Notes, or
(ii) subject to Section 315(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, 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. 
 (4) If the Trustee will resign,
be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy will occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Notes, the Company, by or in accordance with a Board Resolution, will promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees
with and will comply with the applicable requirements of Section 5.10. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes shall have been
appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed will, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance
with the applicable requirements of Section 5.10, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Notes will have
been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 5.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes. 
 (5) The Company will
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 by delivering written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Holders as their names and addresses appear in the Note Register. Each notice will include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Notes and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 5.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(1) Upon the appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to all Notes, such successor Trustee so appointed will execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, will become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties hereunder of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges, will execute
and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and, subject to Section 9.03, will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money
held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 5.07. 
 (2) Upon the
appointment hereunder of any successor Trustee with respect to the Notes, the Company, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee will execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee will accept such
appointment and which (i) will contain such provisions as will be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in such successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the
Notes, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Notes, will contain such provisions as will be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect
to the Notes will continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) will add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as will be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than
one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture will constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee will be trustee of a trust or trusts
hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee will be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee
hereunder, and, upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee will have no further responsibility for
the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Notes other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, will 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 or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of
its charges with respect to the Notes and subject to Section 9.03 will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder with respect to the Notes, subject to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 5.07. 

  
 26 













 (3) Upon request of any Person appointed hereunder as a successor Trustee, the Company will
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 paragraph (1) or (2) of this Section, as the case may be. 

(4) No Person will accept its appointment hereunder as a successor Trustee unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Person will be
qualified and eligible under this Article. No resigning or removed Trustee shall have any liability or responsibility for the action or inaction of any successor Trustee. 

Section 5.11 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, will be the successor of the Trustee hereunder (provided that such
corporation will otherwise be qualified and eligible under this Article), 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 will have been authenticated but not delivered by
the Trustee then in office, any such successor 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. In case any
Notes will not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Notes in either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee. 

Section 5.12 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents acceptable to the Company with respect to the Notes which will be authorized to act
on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Notes issued upon original issue, exchange, registration of transfer, partial redemption, partial repayment or in accordance with Section 2.09, and Notes so authenticated will be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and will be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference will be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.

 Each Authenticating Agent will be reasonably acceptable to the Company and, except as provided in or under this Indenture, will at all
times be a corporation that would be permitted by the Trust Indenture Act to act as trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, is authorized under applicable law and by its charter to act as an Authenticating Agent and has a
combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of at least $50,000,000 and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If at any time an Authenticating Agent
will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, will
be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided such corporation will be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any
time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in the case that at any time such
Authenticating Agent will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent that will be acceptable to the Company and will deliver written notice of such appointment by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Note Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder,
will become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent will be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of
this Section 5.12. 
 The Company agrees to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services
under this Section. If the Trustee makes such payments, it will be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 5.07. 

The provisions of Section 2.11, Section 5.04 and Section 5.05 will be applicable to each Authenticating Agent. 

  
 27 













 If an Authenticating Agent is appointed under this Section, the Notes may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form: 

This is one of the Notes designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 Section 5.13 Preferred Collection of Claims against Company.

 Article VI

a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in the rules and regulations of the Commission; 
 (b) file with the

its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the filing, content or timeliness of any report hereunder aside from any

COVENANTS 

Section 9.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. 

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, and interest on, the
Notes, in accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture. Principal and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 11:00 a.m., New York, New York time,
on any Interest Payment Date, an amount in immediately available funds provided by the Company that is designated for and sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due. The Company will pay all Additional Interest, if any, on the dates and
in the amounts set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. 

  
 31 













 If Additional Interest is payable by the Company in accordance with the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Company will deliver to the Trustee a certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate or instruction or direction from the Holders in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest is payable. The foregoing

such payment. 
 Section 9.02 Maintenance of Office. 

The Company will maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York (which may be an office of the Trustee or an
Affiliate of the Trustee or Registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for 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 fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails 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 may
also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission
will, in any manner, relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York. 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. 
 The Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one
such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 9.02. 
 Section 9.03 Money for Notes Payments to Be Held in
Trust. 
 If the Company will at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, or
interest on, any of the Notes, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in Dollars sufficient to pay the principal or interest, as the case may be, so becoming due until such sums will be paid to such Persons
or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the
Company will have one or more Paying Agents, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of, or interest on, any Notes, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum in Dollars sufficient to pay the principal or interest, as the case may be, so
becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, 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 other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
will agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the
payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums will be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as provided in or under this Indenture; 

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company in the making of any payment of principal, or interest on, the Notes; and 

(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee all sums so held in
trust by such Paying Agent. 
 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 terms 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 will be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 

  
 32 













 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 interest on, any Note, remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest will have become due and payable, will be paid to the Company upon a Company Request, or (if then held by the
Company) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will 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 will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, not later than 30 days after the Company’s
request for such repayment, at the expense of the Company, cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment or to be delivered to such Holders of Notes, or both, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after
a date specified therein which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or delivery, nor will it be earlier than two years after such principal and/or interest will have become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such
money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 9.04 Financial Covenants. 

(1) The Company shall maintain cash on hand at least equal to the next twelve months of interest payments on the Notes so long as the Notes
remain Outstanding. 
 (2) The Company shall not incur, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to incur, directly or indirectly, any
indebtedness, unless the Company’s Consolidated Indebtedness to GAAP Capitalization Ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date on which such additional indebtedness would be incurred would have been no
greater than 40%, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom) as if the additional indebtedness and all other indebtedness incurred since the immediately preceding fiscal quarter had been
incurred as of such day (except to the extent such indebtedness has been or will be used to prepay other indebtedness) and the proceeds therefrom applied as of such day. 

(3) Other than existing secured indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company will not incur or permit to exist any
mortgage, pledge, encumbrance or lien or charge securing indebtedness on any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in excess of 20% of the Consolidated Indebtedness of the Company when combined with any existing secured
indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 (4) The Company will use reasonable best efforts to maintain a rating of the Notes
from Egan-Jones Ratings Company, provided that, in the event Egan-Jones Ratings Company is no longer available to rate the Notes, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain a rating of the Notes with another Ratings Agency. 

Section 9.05 Waiver of Certain Covenants. 

The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Section 9.02 to
Section 9.04, inclusive, with respect to the Notes, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, by Act of such Holders, either will waive such compliance in such
instance or generally will have waived compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver will extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver will become
effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition will remain in full force and effect. 

Section 9.06 Company Statement as to Compliance. 

The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate covering the
preceding calendar year, stating whether or not, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to notice requirements
or periods of grace) and if the Company will be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which he or she may have knowledge.

The election of the Company to redeem any Notes will be evidenced by a Company Order. In case of any redemption of less than all of the Notes,
the Company will, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice will be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of
Notes to be redeemed.
 In the case of any redemption of Notes (i) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption
provided in the terms of such Notes or elsewhere in this Indenture or (ii) in accordance with an election of the Company that is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Notes or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company will

rata basis as to the Holders, and if the Notes are represented by Global Notes held by the Depositary and such redemption is processed through the Depositary, such redemption will be made on a “Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of
Principal” basis in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary. In the event a pro rata redemption as provided in the preceding sentence is not permitted under applicable law or applicable requirements of the Depositary, the Notes to be
redeemed will be selected by lot or such method as the Trustee will deem fair and appropriate. 
 The Trustee will promptly notify the
Company and the Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

Notice of redemption will be given in the manner provided in Section 10.05 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption
Date to the Holders of Notes to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by delivering in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Notes designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, will not
affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Notes or portions thereof. 
 Any notice that is delivered to the
Holder of any Notes in the manner herein provided will be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 

All notices of redemption will state:

 (2) the
Redemption Price, 
 (3) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption,
the principal amount) of the particular Note or Notes to be redeemed,

 (5) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each
such Note or portion thereof to be redeemed, together (if applicable) with accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon (subject, if applicable, to the provisos to the first paragraph of Section 10.06), and, if
applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, 
 (6) the place or places where such Notes are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and any accrued interest pertaining thereto, and 
 (7) the section hereunder providing for
such redemption. 
 The notice of redemption shall include the “CUSIP” number reference numbers of such Notes, if any (or any
other numbers used by a Depositary to identify such Notes). 
 Notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed at the election of the Company
will be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, delivered at least 10 days before the date such notice is to be given (unless a shorter period will be acceptable to the Trustee) by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the
Company.

On or prior to 11:00 am., New York, New York time, on any Redemption Date, the Company will deposit, with respect to the Notes called for

Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date will be an Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, all such Notes or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 

Section 10.06 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. 

Notice of redemption having been given as provided above, the Notes so to be redeemed will, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at
the Redemption Price therein specified, together with accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, thereon and from and after such date (unless the Company will default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if
any) such Notes will cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note will be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Interest, if any, thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Notes 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 Regular Record Dates therefor according to their terms and the provisions of Section 2.10. 
 If any Note
called for redemption will not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal, until paid, will bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Note or, if no rate is prescribed therefor in the Note, at
the rate of interest, if any, borne by such Note. 
 Section 10.07 Notes Redeemed in Part. 

Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part will be surrendered at any office or agency for such Note (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 his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company will execute, and the Trustee
will authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes, containing identical terms and provisions, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in
exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. If a Global Note is so surrendered, the Company will execute, and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Depositary for such Global Note as will be specified
in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, without service charge, a new Global Note in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Note so surrendered. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company will issue, and the Trustee will authenticate for the Holder at the expense of
the Company, a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only a Company Order and
not an Opinion of Counsel or an Officers’ Certificate of the Company is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

 UNIVERSAL INSURANCE HOLDINGS, INC. 

5.625% SENIOR UNSECURED NOTE DUE NOVEMBER 30, 2026 

1. Indenture; Holders. This note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), designated as the “5.625% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2026” (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 and initially issued on November 23, 2021. The
Company has issued this Note under that certain Indenture dated as of November 23, 2021, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time (“Indenture”), between the Company and UMB Bank National Association,
as Trustee. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Note will have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. The terms of this Note include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the
Trust Indenture Act. This Note is subject to all such terms, and the Holder is referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note irreconcilably conflicts with the express
provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling. 
 2. Payment. 

(a) The Company, for value received, promises to pay to [•], or its registered assigns, the principal sum of [•] Dollars (U.S.)
($[•]), plus accrued but unpaid interest on November 30, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company will pay interest at a rate of 5.625% per annum (subject to adjustment as described below), computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and payable semi-annually on May 30 and November 30 of each year (each payment date, an “Interest Payment
Date”). Beginning November 30, 2021, in the event the Notes are downgraded by the Ratings Agency below A- but equal to or above BBB-, the rate of interest
on the Notes shall increase by 0.50% to 6.125%. If the rating is subsequently increased back to A- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to 5.625%. If the rating is further downgraded to BB+
or lower, the rate of interest will increase by another 0.50% to 6.625%. If the rating is subsequently improved back to BBB- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to 6.125%. Each adjustment
required by any event described herein will take effect from the first Interest Payment Date following the date on which the Company receives notice that such event has occurred. As such, interest will not accrue at such increased or decreased rate
until the next Interest Payment Date following the date on which the event occurs. If the Ratings Agency changes its rating of the Notes more than once prior to any particular Interest Payment Date or ceases to provide a rating of the Notes, the
last change by the Ratings Agency prior to such Interest Payment Date will control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease. 

(b) In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the interest payment due on that
date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement. The term “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or any other day on which
banking institutions in the State of New York are generally authorized or required by law or executive order to be closed. 

  
 A-1-3

interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check delivered to the Holder at its address set forth in the Note Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately
designated by the Person entitled to payment; provided, that the Paying Agent will have received written notice of such account designation at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment (subject to surrender of this Note in
the case of a payment of interest at Maturity).

UNIVERSAL INSURANCE HOLDINGS, INC. 

5.625% SENIOR UNSECURED NOTE DUE NOVEMBER 30, 2026 

1. Indenture; Holders. This note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”) designated as the “5.625% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2026” (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 and initially issued on November 23, 2021. The
Company has issued this Note under that certain Indenture dated as of November 23, 2021, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time (“Indenture”), between the Company and UMB Bank National Association, as
Trustee. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Note will have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. The terms of this Note include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust
Indenture Act. This Note is subject to all such terms, and the Holder is referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note irreconcilably conflicts with the express
provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling. 
 2. Payment. 

(a) The Company, for value received, promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or its registered assigns, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED
MILLION Dollars (U.S.) ($100,000,000), plus accrued but unpaid interest on November 30, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company will pay interest at a rate of 5.625% per annum (subject to adjustment as described below),
computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and payable semi-annually on May 30 and November 30 of each year (each payment date,
an “Interest Payment Date”). Beginning November 30, 2021, in the event the Notes are downgraded by the Ratings Agency below A- but equal to or above BBB-,
the rate of interest on the Notes shall increase by 0.50% to 6.125%. If the rating is subsequently increased back to A- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to 5.625%. If the rating is
further downgraded to BB+ or lower, the rate of interest will increase by another 0.50% to 6.625%. If the rating is subsequently improved back to BBB- or higher, the rate of interest will decrease by 0.50% to
6.125%. Each adjustment required by any event described herein will take effect from the first Interest Payment Date following the date on which the Company receives notice that such event has occurred. As such, interest will not accrue at such
increased or decreased rate until the next Interest Payment Date following the date on which the event occurs. If the Ratings Agency changes its rating of the Notes more than once prior to any particular Interest Payment Date or ceases to provide a
rating of the Notes, the last change by the Ratings Agency prior to such Interest Payment Date will control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease. 

(b) In the event that any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the interest payment due on that
date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement. The term “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or any other day on which
banking institutions in the State of New York are generally authorized or required by law or executive order to be closed. 












 The Company will pay interest on this Note to the Person who is the registered Holder as of
the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.10 of the Indenture with respect to Defaulted Interest. This Note will be payable as to principal and
interest at the office or agency of the Paying Agent, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check delivered to the Holder at its address set forth in the Note Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately
designated by the Person entitled to payment; provided, that the Paying Agent will have received written notice of such account designation at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment (subject to surrender of this Note in
the case of a payment of interest at Maturity). 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. UMB Bank National Association, the Trustee
(“Trustee”) under the Indenture, will act as the initial Paying Agent and Registrar through its offices presently located at 5555 San Felipe, Suite 870, Houston, Texas 77056. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 4. Redemption. The Company may,
at any time or from time to time on or after November 30, 2023, redeem this Note, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, but in all cases in a principal amount with integral multiples of $1,000. 

This Notes is not subject to redemption at the option of the Holder. On or after November 30, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem
all or a part of the Notes, upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of this Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, on the Notes redeemed, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on November 30 of the years indicated below:

	 2023

	 2025, and thereafter
	  	 	100.00000	%

thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 If less than the then outstanding principal amount of this Note is
redeemed, (i) a new note shall be issued representing the unredeemed portion without charge to the Holder thereof and (ii) such redemption shall be effected on a pro rata basis as to the Holder, and if the Notes are represented by Global
Notes held by DTC and such redemption is processed through DTC, such redemption will be made on a “Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal” basis in accordance with the procedures of DTC. In the event a pro rata redemption as
provided in the preceding sentence is not permitted under applicable law or applicable requirements of DTC, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by lot or such method as the Trustee will deem fair and appropriate.

the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any overdue installments of interest at the rate or respective rates, as the case may be, provided for or with respect to this Note or, if no such rate or rates are so provided, at the rate or respective
rates, as the case may be, of interest borne by this Note.

distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock, other than: (i) any dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for

series of Company’s capital stock; (iv) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Company’s capital stock in accordance with the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or
exchanged; or (v) purchases of any class of Company’s common stock related to the issuance of common stock or rights under any of benefit plans for Company’s directors, officers or employees or any of Company’s dividend
