 iii 

 THIS INDENTURE, dated as of March 26, 2003, between Omni Financial Services, Inc., a Georgia
corporation (the “Company”), and U. S. Bank National Association, a national banking association organized under the laws of the United States of America, as debenture trustee (the “Trustee”). 
 WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, for its lawful
corporate purposes, the Company has duly authorized the issuance of its Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2033 (the “Debentures”) under this Indenture to provide, among other things, for the
execution and authentication, delivery and administration thereof, and the Company has duly authorized the execution of this Indenture; and 
 WHEREAS, all acts and things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement according to its terms, have been done and performed; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, This Indenture Witnesseth: 
 In consideration of the premises, and the purchase of the Debentures by the holders
thereof, the Company covenants and agrees with the Trustee for the equal and proportionate benefit of the respective holders from time to time of the Debentures as follows: 
 ARTICLE I. 
 DEFINITIONS 
 Section 1.1. Definitions. The terms defined in this Section 1.1 (except as herein otherwise expressly provided or unless the
context otherwise requires) for all purposes of this Indenture and of any indenture supplemental hereto shall have the respective meanings specified in this Section 1.1. All accounting terms used herein and not expressly defined shall have the
meanings assigned to such terms in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the term “generally accepted accounting principles” means such accounting principles as are generally accepted in the United States at the time
of any computation. The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision. 
 “Additional Interest” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.11. 
 “Additional Junior Indebtedness” means, without duplication and other than the Debentures, any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations
of the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company, under debt securities (or guarantees in respect of debt securities) initially issued after the date of this Indenture to any trust, or a trustee of a trust, partnership or other entity affiliated
with the Company that is, directly or indirectly, a finance subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 3a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940) or other financing vehicle of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in connection with the
issuance by that entity of preferred securities or other securities that are eligible to qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment (or its then equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as then in effect and
applicable to the Company (or, if the Company is not a bank holding company, such guidelines applied to the Company as if the Company were subject to such guidelines); provided, however, that the inability of the Company to treat all
or any portion of the Additional Junior Indebtedness as Tier 1 capital shall not disqualify it as Additional Junior Indebtedness if such inability results from the Company having cumulative preferred stock, minority interests in consolidated
subsidiaries, or any other class of security or interest which the Federal Reserve now or may hereafter accord Tier 1 capital treatment (including the Debentures) in excess of the amount which may qualify for treatment as Tier 1 capital
under applicable capital adequacy guidelines. 
  

 1 

 “Additional Sums” has the meaning set forth in Section 3.6. 
 “Affiliate” has the same meaning as given to that term in Rule 405 of the Securities Act or any successor rule thereunder.

Assistant Secretary of the Company to have been duly adopted by the Board of Directors and to be in full force and effect on the date of such certification and delivered to the Trustee. 
 “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in New York City or Hartford,
Connecticut are permitted or required by any applicable law to close. 
 “Capital Securities” means undivided beneficial
interests in the assets of the Trust which rank pari passu with Common Securities issued by the Trust; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Declaration), the
rights of holders of such Common Securities to payment in respect of distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise are subordinated to the rights of holders of such Capital Securities. 
 “Capital Securities Guarantee” means the guarantee agreement that the Company enters into with U. S. Bank National Association, as
guarantee trustee, or other Persons that operates directly or indirectly for the benefit of holders of Capital Securities of the Trust.

announced prospective change) in, the laws, rules or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, or as the result of any official or administrative pronouncement or action or decision interpreting or applying
such laws, rules or regulations, which amendment or change is effective or which pronouncement, action or decision is announced on or after the date of original issuance of the Debentures, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company
will not, within 90 days of the date of such opinion, be entitled to treat an amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities as “Tier 1 Capital” (or its then equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy
guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as then in effect and applicable to the Company (or if the Company is not a bank holding company, such guidelines applied to the Company as if the Company were subject to such guidelines); provided,
however, that the inability of the Company to treat all or any portion of the liquidation amount of the Capital Securities as Tier l Capital shall not constitute the basis for a Capital Treatment Event, if such inability results from the
Company having cumulative preferred stock, minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, or any other class of security or interest which the Federal Reserve or OTS, as applicable, may now or hereafter accord Tier 1 Capital treatment in
excess of the amount which may now or hereafter qualify for treatment as Tier 1 Capital under applicable capital adequacy guidelines; provided further, however, that the distribution of Debentures in connection with the
liquidation of the Trust shall not in and of itself constitute a Capital Treatment Event unless such liquidation shall have occurred in connection with a Tax Event or an Investment Company Event.

the principal financial officer or the principal accounting officer of the Company.

 3 

 
regulation or written change (including any announced prospective change) in interpretation or application of law or regulation by any legislative body,
court, governmental agency or regulatory authority, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Trust is or, within 90 days of the date of such opinion will be considered an “investment company” that is required to be registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended which change or prospective change becomes effective or would become effective, as the case may be, on or after the date of the issuance of the Debentures.

such Debentures, or portions thereof, are to be redeemed prior to maturity thereof, notice of such redemption shall have been given as provided in Section 10.3 or provision satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made for giving such
notice; and 
 (c) Debentures paid pursuant to Section 2.6 or in lieu of or in substitution for which other Debentures shall have been

governmental charges.

 ARTICLE II. 
 DEBENTURES 
 Section 2.1.
Authentication and Dating. Upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture, or from time to time thereafter, Debentures in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $5,155,000.00 may be executed and delivered by the Company to
the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and make available for delivery said Debentures to or upon the written order of the Company, signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, Vice
Chairman, the President, one of its Managing Directors or one of its Vice Presidents without any further action by the Company hereunder. In authenticating such Debentures, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in
relation to such Debentures, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon: 
 (a) a copy of any Board Resolution or Board Resolutions relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken pursuant to such resolution, in each case certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
Company, as the case may be; and 
 (b) an Opinion of Counsel prepared in accordance with Section 14.6 which shall also state:

 (1) that such Debentures, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in each case in the
manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, subject to or limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, conservatorship,
receivership, moratorium and other statutory or decisional laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or the reorganization of financial institutions (including, without limitation, preference and fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws),
heretofore or hereafter enacted or in effect, affecting the rights of creditors generally; and 
 (2) that all laws and
requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of the Debentures have been complied with and that authentication and delivery of the Debentures by the Trustee will not violate the terms of this Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Debentures under this Section if the Trustee, being advised in writing by
counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing holders. 
 The definitive Debentures shall be typed, printed, lithographed or engraved on steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as
determined by the officers executing such Debentures, as evidenced by their execution of such Debentures. 
  

 7 

 Section 2.2. Form of Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication. The Trustee’s
certificate of authentication on all Debentures shall be in substantially the following form: 
 This is one of the Debentures referred to in
the within-mentioned Indenture. 
  

			
	 U. S. Bank National Association, as Trustee

		
	 By
	 	  
	 Authorized Signer

 Section 2.3. Form and Denomination of Debentures. The Debentures shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The Debentures shall be in registered, certificated form without coupons and in minimum denominations of $100,000.00 and any multiple of $1,000.00 in excess thereof. Any attempted transfer of
the Debentures in a block having an aggregate principal amount of less than $100,000.00 shall be deemed to be void and of no legal effect whatsoever. Any such purported transferee shall be deemed not to be a holder of such Debentures for any
purpose, including, but not limited to the receipt of payments on such Debentures, and such purported transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in such Debentures. The Debentures shall be numbered, lettered, or otherwise
distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plans as the officers executing the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof. 
 Section 2.4. Execution of Debentures. The Debentures shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or
facsimile signature of its Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, Vice Chairman, President, one of its Managing Directors or one of its Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents or Vice Presidents. Only such Debentures
as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form herein before recited, executed by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of an authorized signer, shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon any Debenture executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Debenture so authenticated has been duly authenticated
and delivered hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 In case any officer of the Company who shall
have signed any of the Debentures shall cease to be such officer before the Debentures so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, or disposed of by the Company, such Debentures nevertheless may
be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed such Debentures had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Debenture may be signed on behalf of the Company by such Persons as, at the actual date of the
execution of such Debenture, shall be the proper officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an officer. 
 Every Debenture shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 Section 2.5. Exchange and
Registration of Transfer of Debentures. The Company shall cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained for the purpose of registration of transfer and for exchange as provided in Section 3.2, a register (the
“Debenture Register”) for the Debentures issued hereunder in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration and transfer of all Debentures as in this Article II
provided. The Debenture Register shall be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. 
 Debentures to be exchanged may be surrendered at the Principal Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency to be maintained by the Company for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2, and the Company shall
execute, the Company or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor the Debenture or 

  

 8 

 
Debentures which the Securityholder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture at
the Principal Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2, the Company shall execute, the Company or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Debenture for a like aggregate principal amount. Registration or registration of transfer of any Debenture by the Trustee or by any agent of
the Company appointed pursuant to Section 3.2, and delivery of such Debenture, shall be deemed to complete the registration or registration of transfer of such Debenture. 
 All Debentures presented for registration of transfer or for exchange or payment shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent duly executed by the holder or his attorney duly
authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Debentures, but the Company or the
Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Company or the Trustee shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Debenture for a period of 15 days next preceding the date of selection of Debentures for redemption. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Debentures may not be transferred except in compliance with the restricted securities legend set forth
below, unless otherwise determined by the Company, upon the advice of counsel expert in securities law, in accordance with applicable law: 
 THIS SECURITY IS NOT A SAVINGS ACCOUNT OR DEPOSIT AND IT IS NOT INSURED BY THE UNITED STATES OR ANY AGENCY OR FUND OF THE UNITED STATES, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION. 
 THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR ANY
OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAW. NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH

ACT, OR (F) PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE 

  

 9 

 
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, SUBJECT TO THE COMPANY’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INDENTURE, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY. 
 THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF ALSO AGREES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNT OR OTHER PLAN OR ARRANGEMENT SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF THE
EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), OR SECTION 4975 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”) (EACH A “PLAN”), OR AN ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE
“PLAN ASSETS” BY REASON OF ANY PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY, AND NO PERSON INVESTING “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY PLAN MAY ACQUIRE OR HOLD THE SECURITIES OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, UNLESS SUCH PURCHASER OR HOLDER IS ELIGIBLE FOR
EXEMPTIVE RELIEF AVAILABLE UNDER U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR PROHIBITED TRANSACTION CLASS EXEMPTION 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 OR 84-14 OR ANOTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION OR ITS PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THIS SECURITY IS NOT PROHIBITED BY SECTION 406 OF
ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PURCHASE OR HOLDING. ANY PURCHASER OR HOLDER OF THE SECURITIES OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE REPRESENTED BY ITS PURCHASE AND HOLDING THEREOF THAT EITHER (i) IT IS NOT
AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA, OR A PLAN TO WHICH SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE IS APPLICABLE, A TRUSTEE OR OTHER PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR PLAN, OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY
USING THE ASSETS OF ANY EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN OR PLAN TO FINANCE SUCH PURCHASE, OR (ii) SUCH PURCHASE WILL NOT RESULT IN A PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE FOR WHICH THERE IS NO APPLICABLE
STATUTORY OR ADMINISTRATIVE EXEMPTION. 
 THIS SECURITY WILL BE ISSUED AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN BLOCKS HAVING AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT OF NOT LESS THAN $100,000.00 AND MULTIPLES OF $1,000.00 IN EXCESS THEREOF. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN A BLOCK HAVING AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF LESS THAN $100,000.00 SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE VOID AND OF NO LEGAL EFFECT
WHATSOEVER. 
 THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES THAT IT WILL COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS. 
 Section 2.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Debentures. In case any Debenture shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Company shall execute, and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Debenture bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Debenture, or in lieu of
and in substitution for the Debenture so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Debenture shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Debenture and of the ownership thereof. 

The Trustee may authenticate any such substituted Debenture and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the
Company. Upon the issuance of any substituted 

  

 10 

 
Debenture, 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 connected therewith. In case any Debenture which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in full shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, instead of issuing a substitute
Debenture, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Debenture) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to save each of them harmless and, in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company and to the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Debenture and of the ownership thereof. 
 Every substituted Debenture issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6 by virtue of the fact that any such Debenture is destroyed, lost
or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debenture shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Debentures duly issued hereunder. All Debentures shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Debentures and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or
payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 
 Section 2.7. Temporary
Debentures. Pending the preparation of definitive Debentures, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery temporary Debentures that are typed, printed or lithographed. Temporary Debentures
shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Debentures in lieu of which they are issued but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Debentures, all as
may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Debenture shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the definitive
Debentures. Without unreasonable delay the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent definitive Debentures and thereupon any or all temporary Debentures may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at the principal
corporate trust office of the Trustee or at any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange
for such temporary Debentures a like aggregate principal amount of such definitive Debentures. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor except that in case of any such exchange involving a
registration of transfer the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. Until so exchanged, the temporary Debentures shall in all respects be entitled
to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Debentures authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 2.8. Payment of
Interest and Additional Interest. Interest at the Interest Rate and any Additional Interest on any Debenture that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Debentures shall be paid to the
Person in whose name said Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment except that interest and any Additional Interest payable on the Maturity Date
shall be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid. 
 Each Debenture shall bear interest for the period beginning on (and including) the
date of original issuance and ending on (but excluding) June 26, 2003 at a rate per annum of 4.41063%, and shall bear interest for each successive period beginning on (and including) June 26, 2003, and each succeeding 

  

 11 

 
Interest Payment Date, and ending on (but excluding) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (each, a “Distribution Period”) at a rate per
annum equal to the 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described in Section 2.10, plus 3.15% (the “Coupon Rate”); provided, however, that prior to March 26, 2008, the Coupon Rate shall not exceed 11.75%, applied to
the principal amount thereof, until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law (without duplication) on any overdue installment of
interest (including Additional Interest) at the Interest Rate in effect for each applicable period compounded quarterly. Interest shall be payable (subject to any relevant Extension Period) quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with the
first installment of interest to be paid on June 26, 2003. 
 Any interest on any Debenture, including Additional Interest, that is
payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular record date by virtue
of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company to the Persons in whose names such Debentures (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing at least 25 days prior to the date of the proposed payment of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on
each such Debenture and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided.
Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall not be more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the
Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the special record date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder at its address as it appears in the Debenture Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Debentures (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such
special record date and shall be no longer payable. 
 The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on any Debentures in any other
lawful manner after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment method; provided, however, the Trustee in its sole discretion deems such payment method to be practical. 
 Any interest (including Additional Interest) scheduled to become payable on an Interest Payment Date occurring during an Extension Period shall not be
Defaulted Interest and shall be payable on such other date as may be specified in the terms of such Debentures. 
 The term “regular
record date” as used in this Section shall mean the close of business on the 15th calendar day next preceding
the applicable Interest Payment Date. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Debenture delivered under this Indenture
upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Debenture shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Debenture. 
 Section 2.9. Cancellation of Debentures Paid, etc. All Debentures surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange or
registration of transfer, shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying agent, be surrendered to the Trustee and promptly canceled by it, or, if 

  

 12 

 
surrendered to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent, shall be promptly canceled by it, and no Debentures shall be issued in lieu thereof except as
expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. All Debentures canceled by any Authenticating Agent shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall destroy all canceled Debentures unless the Company otherwise directs the Trustee
in writing. If the Company shall acquire any of the Debentures, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Debentures unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee
for cancellation. 
 Section 2.10. Computation of Interest. The amount of interest payable for the Distribution Period
commencing on June 26, 2003 and each succeeding Distribution Period will be calculated by applying the Interest Rate to the principal amount outstanding at the commencement of the Distribution Period and multiplying each such amount by the
actual number of days in the Distribution Period concerned divided by 360. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Debentures is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date shall be made on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding
Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally payable. All percentages resulting from any calculations on the Debentures will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one
hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655), and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will
be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward)). 
 (a) “3-Month LIBOR” means the London interbank
offered interest rate for three-month, U.S. dollar deposits determined by the Trustee in the following order of priority: 
 (1) the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity that appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date (as defined below).
“Telerate Page 3750” means the display designated as “Page 3750” on the Dow Jones Telerate Service or such other page as may replace Page 3750 on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated
by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits; 
 (2) if such rate cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Trustee will request the principal London offices of four leading banks in the London interbank market to provide such banks’ offered
quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to prime banks in the London interbank market for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two quotations are
provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; 
 (3) if fewer than two such quotations are provided
as requested in clause (2) above, the Trustee will request four major New York City banks to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for loans in U.S. dollars as of
11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two such quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; and 
 (4) if fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (3) above, 3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month LIBOR determined
with respect to the Distribution Period immediately preceding such current Distribution Period. 
  

 13 

 If the rate for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity that initially appears on Telerate
Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date is superseded on the Telerate Page 3750 by a corrected rate by 12:00 noon (London time) on such Determination Date, then the corrected rate as so
substituted on the applicable page will be the applicable 3-Month LIBOR for such Determination Date. 
 (b) The Interest Rate for any
Distribution Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law. 
 (c) “Determination Date” means the date that is two London Banking Days (i.e., a business day in which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market) preceding the
particular Distribution Period for which a Coupon Rate is being determined. 
 (d) The Trustee shall notify the Company, the Institutional
Trustee and any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the Capital Securities are listed, of the Coupon Rate and the Determination Date for each Distribution Period, in each case as soon as practicable after the determination
thereof but in no event later than the thirtieth (30th) day of the relevant Distribution Period. Failure to notify the Company, the Institutional Trustee or any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, or any defect in said notice,
shall not affect the obligation of the Company to make payment on the Debentures at the applicable Coupon Rate. Any error in the calculation of the Coupon Rate by the Trustee may be corrected at any time by notice delivered as above provided. Upon
the request of a holder of a Debenture, the Trustee shall provide the Coupon Rate then in effect and, if determined, the Coupon Rate for the next Distribution Period. 
 (e) Subject to the corrective rights set forth above, all certificates, communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of the
provisions relating to the payment and calculation of interest on the Debentures and distributions on the Capital Securities by the Trustee or the Institutional Trustee will (in the absence of willful default, bad faith and manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding on the Trust, the Company and all of the holders of the Debentures and the Capital Securities, and no liability shall (in the absence of willful default, bad faith or manifest error) attach to the Trustee or the Institutional
Trustee in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by either of them or their respective powers, duties and discretion. 
 Section
2.11. Extension of Interest Payment Period. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, from time to time, and without causing an Event of Default, to defer payments of interest on
the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures at any time and from time to time during the term of the Debentures, for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods (each such extended interest payment period, an
“Extension Period”), during which Extension Period no interest (including Additional Interest) shall be due and payable (except any Additional Sums that may be due and payable). No Extension Period may end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date. During an Extension Period, interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and interest on such accrued interest will accrue at an annual rate equal to the Interest Rate in effect for such Extension Period, compounded
quarterly from the date such interest would have been payable were it not for the Extension Period, to the extent permitted by law (such interest referred to herein as “Additional Interest”). At the end of any such Extension Period
the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Debentures (together with Additional Interest thereon); provided, however, that no Extension Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date; provided further,
however, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not and shall not permit any Affiliate to (i) 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 or such Affiliate’s capital stock (other than payments of dividends or distributions to the Company) or make any guarantee payments with respect to the foregoing or 

  

 14 

 
(ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company or any
Affiliate that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (i) or (ii) above, (a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock
of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder
stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable
Extension Period, (b) as a result of any exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock or of
any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, (c) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange
provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any
stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants,
options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock and any cash payments in lieu of fractional shares issued in connection therewith, or (f) payments
under the Capital Securities Guarantee). Prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such period, provided that such period together with all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall not
exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, or extend beyond the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, the Company may commence a new Extension
Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest or Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable during
such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Company must give the Trustee notice of its election to begin or extend an Extension Period at least 5 Business Days prior to the regular record date
(as such term is used in Section 2.8) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date with respect to which interest on the Debentures would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period. The Trustee shall
give notice of the Company’s election to begin a new Extension Period to the Securityholders. 
 Section 2.12. CUSIP
Numbers. The Company in issuing the Debentures may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Securityholders; provided,
however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Debentures or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Debentures, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers. 
 ARTICLE III. 
 PARTICULAR
COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 
 Section 3.1. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest; Agreed Treatment of the
Debentures. 
 (a) The Company covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest and any Additional Interest and other payments on 

  

 15 

 
the Debentures at the place, at the respective times and in the manner provided in this Indenture and the Debentures. Each installment of interest on the
Debentures may be paid (i) by mailing checks for such interest payable to the order of the holders of Debentures entitled thereto as they appear on the registry books of the Company if a request for a wire transfer has not been received by the
Company or (ii) by wire transfer to any account with a banking institution located in the United States designated in writing by such Person to the paying agent no later than the related record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as
the holder of this Debenture is the Institutional Trustee, the payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made in immediately available funds at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Institutional
Trustee. 
 (b) The Company will treat the Debentures as indebtedness, and the amounts payable in respect of the principal amount of such
Debentures as interest, for all United States federal income tax purposes. All payments in respect of such Debentures will be made free and clear of United States withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal Revenue
Service Form W8 BEN (or any substitute or successor form) establishing its non-United States status for United States federal income tax purposes. 
 (c) As of the date of this Indenture, the Company has no present intention to exercise its right under Section 2.11 to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by commencing an Extension Period. 
 (d) As of the date of this Indenture, the Company believes that the likelihood that it would exercise its right under Section 2.11 to defer payments
of interest on the Debentures by commencing an Extension Period at any time during which the Debentures are outstanding is remote because of the restrictions that would be imposed on the Company’s ability to declare or pay dividends or
distributions on, or to redeem, purchase or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its outstanding equity and on the Company’s ability to make any payments of principal of or interest on, or repurchase or redeem, any of its debt
securities that rank pari passu in all respects with (or junior in interest to) the Debentures. 
 Section 3.2. Offices for
Notices and Payments, etc. So long as any of the Debentures remain outstanding, the Company will maintain in Hartford, Connecticut, an office or agency where the Debentures may be presented for payment, an office or agency where the
Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange as in this Indenture provided and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Debentures or of this Indenture may be served. The
Company will give to the Trustee written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. Until otherwise designated from time to time by the Company in a notice to the Trustee, or specified as contemplated
by Section 2.5, such office or agency for all of the above purposes shall be the office or agency of the Trustee. In case the Company shall fail to maintain any such office or agency in Hartford, Connecticut, or shall fail to give such notice
of the location or of any change in the location thereof, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the Principal Office of the Trustee. 
 In addition to any such office or agency, the Company may from time to time designate one or more offices or agencies outside Hartford, Connecticut, where the Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer
and for exchange in the manner provided in this Indenture, and the Company may from time to time rescind such designation, as the Company may deem desirable or expedient; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall
in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain any such office or agency in Hartford, Connecticut, for the purposes above mentioned. The Company will give to the Trustee prompt written notice of any such designation or rescission
thereof. 
  

 16 

 Section 3.3. Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company,
whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 6.9, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 3.4. Provision as to Paying Agent. 
 (a) If the Company shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee, it will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to
the provision of this Section 3.4, 
 (1) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the
principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Debentures (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor on the Debentures) in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Debentures; 
 (2) that it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor on the Debentures) to make
any payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Debentures when the same shall be due and payable; and 
 (3) that it will, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent. 
 (b) If the Company shall act as its own paying agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest or other
payments, if any, on the Debentures, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Debentures a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, interest or other payments so becoming due and will notify the Trustee in
writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor under the Debentures) to make any payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest or other payments, if any, on the Debentures when
the same shall become due and payable. 
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more paying agents for the Debentures, it will, on or prior
to each due date of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Debentures, deposit with a paying agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, interest or other payments 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 shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure to act. 
 (c) Anything in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and
discharge with respect to the Debentures, or for any other reason, pay, or direct any paying agent to pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or any such paying agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein
contained. 
 (d) Anything in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this
Section 3.4 is subject to Sections 12.3 and 12.4. 
 Section 3.5. Certificate to Trustee. The Company will
deliver to the Trustee on or before 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, so long as Debentures are outstanding hereunder, a Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as officers of the
Company they would normally have knowledge of any default during such fiscal year by the Company in the performance of any covenants contained herein, stating whether or not they have knowledge of any such 

  

 17 

 
default and, if so, specifying each such default of which the signers have knowledge and the nature and status thereof. 
 Section 3.6. Additional Sums. If and for so long as the Trust is the holder of all Debentures and the Trust is required to pay any
additional taxes (including withholding taxes), duties, assessments or other governmental charges as a result of a Tax Event, the Company will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Sums”) on the Debentures as shall be required so
that the net amounts received and retained by the Trust after paying taxes (including withholding taxes), duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be equal to the amounts the Trust would have received if no such taxes, duties,
assessments or other governmental charges had been imposed. Whenever in this Indenture or the Debentures there is a reference in any context to the payment of principal of or interest on the Debentures, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of payments of the Additional Sums provided for in this paragraph to the extent that, in such context, Additional Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph and express mention of the
payment of Additional Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made; provided, however, that the deferral of the
payment of interest during an Extension Period pursuant to Section 2.11 shall not defer the payment of any Additional Sums that may be due and payable. 
 Section 3.7. Compliance with Consolidation Provisions. The Company will not, while any of the Debentures remain outstanding, consolidate with, or merge into, or merge into itself, or sell or convey
all or substantially all of its property to any other Person unless the provisions of Article XI hereof are complied with. 
 Section
3.8. Limitation on Dividends. If Debentures are initially issued to the Trust or a trustee of such Trust in connection with the issuance of Trust Securities by the Trust (regardless of whether Debentures continue to be held by such
Trust) and (i) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, (ii) the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Capital Securities Guarantee, or (iii) the Company shall
have given notice of its election to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period as provided herein and such period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing, then the Company shall not, and shall not
allow any Affiliate of the Company to, (x) 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 or its Affiliates’ capital
stock (other than payments of dividends or distributions to the Company) or make any guarantee payments with respect to the foregoing or (y) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any
debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (x) and (y) above, (1) repurchases, redemptions or other
acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a
dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered
into prior to the applicable Extension Period, if any, (2) as a result of any exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the
Company’s capital stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, (3) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock
pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (4) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or
other property under any stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (5) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock 

  

 18 

 
or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari
passu with or junior to such stock and any cash payments in lieu of fractional shares issued in connection therewith, or (6) payments under the Capital Securities Guarantee). 
 Section 3.9. Covenants as to the Trust. For so long as the Trust Securities remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain 100%
ownership of the Common Securities; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company under this Indenture may succeed to the Company’s ownership of such Common Securities. The Company, as owner of the Common
Securities, shall, except in connection with a distribution of Debentures to the holders of Trust Securities in liquidation of the Trust, the redemption of all of the Trust Securities or certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, each as
permitted by the Declaration, cause the Trust (a) to remain a statutory trust, (b) to otherwise continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes, and (c) to cause each holder of Trust
Securities to be treated as owning an undivided beneficial interest in the Debentures. 
 Section 3.10. Additional Junior
Indebtedness. The Company shall not, and it shall not cause or permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, incur, issue or be obligated on any Additional Junior Indebtedness, either directly or indirectly, by way of guarantee, suretyship
or otherwise, other than Additional Junior Indebtedness (i) that, by its terms, is expressly stated to be either junior and subordinate or pari passu in all respects to the Debentures, and (ii) of which the Company has notified
(and, if then required under the applicable guidelines of the regulating entity, has received approval from) the Federal Reserve, if the Company is a bank holding company, or the OTS, if the Company is a savings and loan holding company. 

ARTICLE IV. 
 SECURITYHOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS 
 BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 4.1. Securityholders’ Lists. The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or caused to be furnished to the
Trustee: 
 (a) on each regular record date for the Debentures, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of the Securityholders of the Debentures as of such record date; and 
 (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in
writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; 
 except that no such lists need be furnished under this Section 4.1 so long as the Trustee is in possession thereof by reason of its acting as Debenture registrar.

 Section 4.2. Preservation and Disclosure of Lists. 
 (a) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the holders of
Debentures (1) contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.1 or (2) received by it in the capacity of Debentures registrar (if so acting) hereunder. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as
provided in Section 4.1 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 
 (b) In case three or more holders of Debentures (hereinafter
referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a 

  

 19 

 
Debenture for a period of at least 6 months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate
with other holders of Debentures with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Debentures and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall
within 5 Business Days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either: 
 (1) afford such applicants access to
the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4.2, or 
 (2) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of holders of Debentures whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (a) of this Section 4.2, and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Securityholders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application. 
 If the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail
to each Securityholder whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4.2 a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which
is specified in such request with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the
Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, if permitted or required by applicable law, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the
Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the holders of all Debentures, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If said Commission, as
permitted or required by applicable law, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining
one or more of such objections, said Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all
such Securityholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 
 (c) Each and every holder of Debentures, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with Company and the Trustee that neither the Company nor the Trustee
nor any paying agent shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the holders of Debentures in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 4.2,
regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under said subsection (b). 
 ARTICLE V. 
 REMEDIES OF THE
TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS 
 UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 Section 5.1. Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever
the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body): 
 (a) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest upon any Debenture when it becomes due and payable, and fails to cure such
default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that a 

  

 20 

 
valid extension of an interest payment period by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Indenture shall not constitute a default in the payment of
interest for this purpose; or 
 (b) the Company defaults in the payment of all or any part of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any
Debentures as and when the same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration of acceleration or otherwise; or 
 (c) the Company defaults in the performance of, or breaches, any of its covenants or agreements in this Indenture or in the terms of the Debentures established as contemplated in this Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement a default
in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the
Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debentures, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is
a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or 
 (d) a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of
the Company in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of
the Company or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 
 (e) the Company shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect, shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar
official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due; or 
 (f) the Trust shall have voluntarily or involuntarily liquidated, dissolved, wound-up its business or otherwise terminated its existence except in
connection with (i) the distribution of the Debentures to holders of such Trust Securities in liquidation of their interests in the Trust, (ii) the redemption of all of the outstanding Trust Securities or (iii) certain mergers,
consolidations or amalgamations, each as permitted by the Declaration. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the
Debentures, then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal of the Debentures shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures then
outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Securityholders), may declare the entire principal of the Debentures and the interest accrued thereon, if any, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any
such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable. 
 The foregoing provisions, however, are subject to the condition that
if, at any time after the principal of the Debentures shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, (i) the Company
shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the Debentures and the principal of and premium, if any, on the Debentures which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration
(with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and Additional Interest) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys 

  

 21 

 
and counsel, and all other amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.6, if any, and (ii) all Events of Default under this Indenture, other
than the non-payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on Debentures which shall have become due by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein — then and in every such case the holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and
annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon. 
 In case the Trustee shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and
in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the
Debentures shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken. 
 Section 5.2. Payment of Debentures on Default; Suit
Therefor. The Company covenants that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders
of the Debentures the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all Debentures for principal and premium, if any, or interest, or both, as the case may be, with Additional Interest accrued on the Debentures (to the extent that
payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and, if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee of such Trust, without duplication of any other amounts paid by the Trust or a trustee in respect thereof); and, in addition
thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including a reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under
Section 6.6. In case the Company shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in
equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Company or any other obligor on such Debentures and
collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor on such Debentures wherever situated the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable. 
 In case there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures under
Bankruptcy Law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed for the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Company or other obligor upon the Debentures,
or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Debentures shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.2, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, 
  

	 	(i)	to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Debentures, 

  

	 	(ii)	 in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all 

  

 22 

	 	 
other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6), and of the Securityholders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any
other obligor on the Debentures, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the holders of the Debentures in any election of a trustee or a standby
trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or Person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings, 

  

	 	(iii)	to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and 

  

	 	(iv)	to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses. 

 Any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the Securityholders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other amounts due to the
Trustee under Section 6.6. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept
or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Debentures or the rights of any holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any
Securityholder in any such proceeding. 
 All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Debentures,
may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Debentures, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Debentures. 
 In any
proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the holders of the Debentures, and it
shall not be necessary to make any holders of the Debentures parties to any such proceedings. 
 Section 5.3. Application of Moneys
Collected by Trustee. Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the
several Debentures in respect of which moneys have been collected, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 First: To the payment of costs and expenses incurred by, and reasonable fees of, the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and of all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6; 
 Second: To the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company if and to the extent required by Article XV; 
 Third: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon Debentures for principal (and premium, if any), and interest on the Debentures, in respect
of which or for the benefit of which money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due on such Debentures (including Additional Interest); and 
  

 23 

 Fourth: The balance, if any, to the Company. 
 Section 5.4. Proceedings by Securityholders. No holder of any Debenture shall have any right to institute any suit, action or
proceeding for any remedy hereunder, unless such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures and unless the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures then outstanding shall have given the Trustee a written request to institute such action, suit or proceeding and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to
be incurred thereby, and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, however, the right of any holder of any Debenture to receive payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest, on such Debenture when due, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder and by accepting a Debenture hereunder it is expressly
understood, intended and covenanted by the taker and holder of every Debenture with every other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more holders of Debentures shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing
itself of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other Debentures, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of Debentures. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be
entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 
 Section 5.5. Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an
Event of Default hereunder the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of
such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in
this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 
 Section 5.6.
Remedies Cumulative and Continuing; Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6, all powers and remedies given by this Article V to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the holders of the Debentures, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and
agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise established with respect to the Debentures, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Debentures to exercise any right, remedy or power accruing upon any Event of
Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right, remedy or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.4, every power and
remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee (in accordance with its duties under Section 6.1) or by the
Securityholders. 
 Section 5.7. Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Securityholders. The
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures affected (voting as one class) at the time outstanding shall 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 such Debentures; provided, however, that (subject to the 

  

 24 

 
provisions of Section 6.1) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee shall determine that the action so
directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the holders not taking part in such direction or if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 The holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all of the Debentures waive (or modify any previously granted waiver of) any past default or Event of Default, and its consequences,
except a default (a) in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Debentures, (b) in respect of covenants or provisions hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each
Debenture affected, or (c) in respect of the covenants contained in Section 3.9; provided, however, that if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not
be effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver, provided, further, that if the consent of the holder of each
outstanding Debenture is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all
purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section, said default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Debentures and this Indenture be
deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing. 
 Section 5.8. Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within
90 days after the actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of the occurrence of a default with respect to the Debentures, mail to all Securityholders, as the names and addresses of such holders appear upon the Debenture
Register, notice of all defaults with respect to the Debentures known to the Trustee, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “defaults” for the purpose of this Section 5.8 being hereby
defined to be the events specified in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Section 5.1, not including periods of grace, if any, provided for therein); provided, however, that, except in the case of default in
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Debentures, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of
such notice is in the interests of the Securityholders. 
 Section 5.9. Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this
Indenture agree, and each holder of any Debenture by his acceptance thereof shall 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 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; provided, however, that the provisions of this
Section 5.9 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group of Securityholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Debentures outstanding, or to any
suit instituted by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debenture against the Company on or after the same shall have become due and payable.

 ARTICLE VI. 
 CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 6.1. Duties and Responsibilities of
Trustee. With respect to the holders of Debentures issued hereunder, the Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have
occurred, with respect to the Debentures, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of
Default with respect to the Debentures has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a
prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall be
construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Debentures and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred 
 (1) the duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect to Debentures shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this
Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations with respect to the Debentures as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Indenture against the Trustee, and 
 (2) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively
rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates
or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture; 
 (b) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be
proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith, in accordance with the direction of the Securityholders pursuant to Section 5.7, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture. 
 None of the provisions contained in this
Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is ground for believing that the
repayment of such funds or liability is not assured to it under the terms of this Indenture or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against such risk is not reasonably assured to it. 
  

 26 

 Section 6.2. Reliance on Documents, Opinions, etc. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 6.1: 
 (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, note, debenture or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

 (b) any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’
Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company; 
 (c) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel; 
 (d) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such
Securityholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; 
 (e) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; nothing
contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures (that has not been cured or waived) to exercise with respect to Debentures such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, coupon or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Debentures affected thereby; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding; 
 (g) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents (including any
Authenticating Agent) or attorneys, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent or attorney appointed by it with due care; and 
 (h) with the exceptions of defaults under Sections 5.1(a) or 5.1(b), the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
with respect to the Debentures unless a written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures or by any holder of the Debentures. 
 Section 6.3. No Responsibility for Recitals, etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Debentures (except in the certificate of
authentication of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent assume no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee and the Authenticating
Agent make no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Debentures. The Trustee and 

  

 27 

 
the Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Debentures or the proceeds of any Debentures authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 Section 6.4. Trustee,
Authenticating Agent, Paying Agents, Transfer Agents or Registrar May Own Debentures. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent or any paying agent or any transfer agent or any Debenture registrar, in its individual or any other capacity,
may become the owner or pledgee of Debentures with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, paying agent, transfer agent or Debenture registrar. 
 Section 6.5. Moneys to be Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.4, all moneys received by the Trustee or any
paying agent shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purpose for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee and any paying agent shall be
under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid
from time to time upon the written order of the Company, signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, a Managing Director, a Vice President, the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company.

 Section 6.6. Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee
upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or willful misconduct. For purposes of clarification, this Section 6.6 does not contemplate the payment by
the Company of acceptance or annual administration fees owing to the Trustee pursuant to the services to be provided by the Trustee under this Indenture or the fees and expenses of the Trustee’s counsel in connection with the closing of the
transactions contemplated by this Indenture. The Company also covenants to indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, damage,
claim, liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration
of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.6 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Debentures upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds
held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Debentures. 
 Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee
under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d), Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and
expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 
 The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the defeasance or other termination of this Indenture.

 Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or any Debenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to advance
funds to pay any principal of or interest on or other amounts with respect to the Debentures or otherwise advance funds to or on behalf of the Company. 
  

 28 

 Section 6.7. Officers’ Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in
Sections 6.1 and 6.2, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter
(unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate
delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the
faith thereof. 
 Section 6.8. Eligibility of Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized
and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia or a corporation or other Person authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having (or whose
obligations under this Indenture are guaranteed by an affiliate having) a combined capital and surplus of at least 50 million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000.00) and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or District of
Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.8 the combined capital
and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent records of condition so published. 
 The Company may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee. 
 In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8, the Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.9. 
 If the Trustee has or shall acquire any “conflicting
interest” within the meaning of §310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner described by this Indenture. 
 Section 6.9. Resignation or Removal of Trustee 
 (a) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and by mailing notice thereof, at the Company’s expense, to the
holders of the Debentures at their addresses as they shall appear on the Debenture Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, executed
by order of its Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days
after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the affected Securityholders, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder
of a Debenture or Debentures for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 5.9, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor Trustee. Such court may
thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee. 
 (b) In case at any time any of the
following shall occur — 
 (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 6.8 after
written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Debenture or Debentures for at least 6 months, or 
  

 29 

 (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
Section 6.8 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder, or 
 (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 
 then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint
a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee, or, subject to the provisions of
Section 5.9, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Debenture or Debentures for at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint successor Trustee. 
 (c) Upon prior written notice to the Company and the Trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time
outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor Trustee, which shall be deemed appointed as successor Trustee unless within 10 Business Days after such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case, or in the case of
a failure by such holders to nominate a successor Trustee, the Trustee so removed or any Securityholder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in subsection (a) of this Section 6.9 provided, may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor. 
 (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as provided in Section 6.10. 
 Section 6.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 6.9 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the
rights, powers, duties and obligations with respect to the Debentures of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor Trustee, the
Trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.6, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights and powers of the Trustee so ceasing to act
and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee thereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more
fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights and powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then
due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.6. 
 If a successor Trustee is appointed, the Company, the retiring Trustee and the
successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect
to the Debentures as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the Trust hereunder by more than one 

  

 30 

 
Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each
such Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee. 
 No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 6.8. 
 In no event shall a retiring Trustee be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Trustee hereunder. 
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this Section 6.10, the Company shall mail notice of the succession of such
Trustee hereunder to the holders of Debentures at their addresses as they shall appear on the Debenture Register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within 10 Business Days after the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the
successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company. 
 Section 6.11. Succession by Merger,
etc. 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 shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties
hereto; provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible and qualified under this Article. 
 In case at the time such successor
to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Debentures shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee, and
deliver such Debentures so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Debentures shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Debentures either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name
of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Debentures or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that
the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Debentures in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 6.12. Authenticating Agents. There may be one or more Authenticating Agents appointed by the Trustee upon the request of the
Company with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Debentures issued upon exchange or registration of transfer thereof as fully to all intents and purposes as though any such Authenticating
Agent had been expressly authorized to authenticate and deliver Debentures; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no liability to the Company for any acts or omissions of the Authenticating Agent with respect to the
authentication and delivery of Debentures. Any such Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia
authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.00 and being subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia authority. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or the requirements of such authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.12 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect herein specified in this Section. 
  

 31 

 Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of any
Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, if such successor corporation is otherwise eligible under this Section 6.12 without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the
parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent. 
 Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to
the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent with respect to the Debentures by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section 6.12, the Trustee may, and upon the request of the Company shall, promptly appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent eligible under this Section 6.12, shall give written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall mail notice of such appointment to all holders of Debentures as the names and addresses of such holders appear on the
Debenture Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and responsibilities with respect to the Debentures of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent herein. 
 The Company agrees to pay to any Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services. Any Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such in accordance with the directions of the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE VII. 
 CONCERNING THE
SECURITYHOLDERS 
 Section 7.1. Action by Securityholders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the
holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action) the fact that at the
time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy
appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of such holders of Debentures voting in favor thereof at any meeting of such Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII, or (c) by a combination of
such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of such Securityholders or (d) by any other method the Trustee deems satisfactory. 
 If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by
an Officers’ Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such Debentures for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the
same, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same may be given before or after the record date,
but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of outstanding Debentures have authorized or
agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, and for that purpose the outstanding Debentures shall be computed as of the record date; provided,
however, that no such authorization, 

  

 32 

 
agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this
Indenture not later than 6 months after the record date. 
 Section 7.2. Proof of Execution by Securityholders. Subject to
the provisions of Section 6.1, 6.2 and 8.5, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the
Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The ownership of Debentures shall be proved by the Debenture Register or by a certificate of the Debenture registrar. The Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter
referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary. 
 The record of any Securityholders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner
provided in Section 8.6. 
 Section 7.3. Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of
transfer of any Debenture, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and any Debenture registrar may deem the Person in whose name such Debenture shall be registered upon the Debenture Register to be,
and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such Debenture (whether or not such Debenture shall be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Debenture and for all other
purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any Debenture registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the
time being or upon his order shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Debenture. 
 Section 7.4. Debentures Owned by Company Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate
principal amount of Debentures have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Debentures which are owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or
controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided, however, that
for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Debentures which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Debentures so
owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 7.4 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such Debentures and that the
pledgee is not the Company or any such other obligor or Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any
decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. 
 Section 7.5. Revocation of
Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 7.1, of the taking of any action by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder (in cases where no record date has been set pursuant to Section 7.1) or any holder as of an applicable record date (in cases where a record date has been set
pursuant to Section 7.1) of a Debenture (or any Debenture issued in whole or in part in exchange or substitution therefor) the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included in the Debentures the holders of which have consented
to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at the Principal Office of the Trustee and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 7.2, revoke such action so far as concerns such Debenture (or so far as concerns the principal
amount represented by 

  

 33 

 
any exchanged or substituted Debenture). Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such
holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Debenture, and of any Debenture issued in exchange or substitution therefor or on registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such
Debenture or any Debenture issued in exchange or substitution therefor.

 Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein
stated. 
 Section 8.7. Quorum; Actions. The Persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Debentures

other action which may be given by the holders of not less than a specified percentage in principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding, the Persons holding or representing such specified percentage in principal amount of the Debentures then

 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
 Section 9.1. Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Securityholders. The Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto, without the consent of the Securityholders, for one or more of the following purposes:

 (b) to add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the holders of Debentures as the
Board of Directors shall consider to be for the protection of the holders of such Debentures, and to make the occurrence, or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions or conditions a default or an
Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth; provided, however, that in respect of any such additional covenant restriction or condition such
supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default or may limit the
remedies available to the Trustee upon such default; 
 (c) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein
or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, or to make such other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture;
provided that any such action shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Debentures; 
  

 36 

 (d) to add to, delete from, or revise the terms of Debentures, including, without limitation, any terms
relating to the issuance, exchange, registration or transfer of Debentures, including to provide for transfer procedures and restrictions substantially similar to those applicable to the Capital Securities as required by Section 2.5 (for
purposes of assuring that no registration of Debentures is required under the Securities Act); provided, however, that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Debentures then outstanding (it being
understood, for purposes of this proviso, that transfer restrictions on Debentures substantially similar to those that were applicable to Capital Securities shall not be deemed to materially adversely affect the holders of the Debentures);

 (e) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Debentures and to add
to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee; 
 (f) to make any change (other than as elsewhere provided in this paragraph) that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder in any
material respect; or 
 (g) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Debentures, to establish
the form of any certifications required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or the Debentures, or to add to the rights of the holders of Debentures. 
 The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept
the conveyance, transfer and assignment of any property thereunder, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 9.1 may be executed by the
Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders of any of the Debentures at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.2. 
 Section 9.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Securityholders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 7.1) of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as a class), the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of
the Debentures; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall without the consent of the holders of each Debenture then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the fixed maturity of any Debenture, or reduce the
principal amount thereof or any premium thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof or make the principal thereof or any interest or premium thereon payable in any
coin or currency other than that provided in the Debentures, or impair or affect the right of any Securityholder to institute suit for payment thereof or impair the right of repayment, if any, at the option of the holder, or (ii) reduce the
aforesaid percentage of Debentures the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture; provided further, however, that if the Debentures are held by a trust or a trustee of such trust, such
supplemental indenture shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such supplemental indenture; provided further, however, that if the consent of the
Securityholder of each outstanding Debenture is required, such supplemental indenture shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities shall have consented to such supplemental indenture. 
  

 37 

 Upon the request of the Company accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such
supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture
affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 
 Promptly after the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall
transmit by mail, first class postage prepaid, a notice, prepared by the Company, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the Securityholders as their names and addresses appear upon the Debenture Register.
Any failure of the Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall
approve the substance thereof. 
 Section 9.3. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental
indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this
Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of Debentures shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all the terms and conditions of any such
supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 
 Section 9.4. Notation on Debentures. Debentures authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX may bear a notation as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Debentures so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any
such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and delivered in exchange for the Debentures then outstanding. 
 Section 9.5. Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to be Furnished to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Sections 6.1 and 6.2, shall, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.6, receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant hereto complies
with the requirements of this Article IX. The Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX is authorized or permitted by, and conforms to, the terms
of this Article IX and that it is proper for the Trustee under the provisions of this Article IX to join in the execution thereof. 
 ARTICLE X.

 Section 10.3. Notice of Redemption; Selection of Debentures. In case the Company shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all, or,

redeemed as a whole or in part at their last addresses as the same appear on the Debenture Register. Such mailing shall be by first class mail. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given, whether or not the holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the holder of any Debenture designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the

the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date, as applicable, all the Debentures so called for redemption at the appropriate

 If all, or less than all, the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Company will give the
Trustee notice not less than 45 nor more than 60 days, respectively, prior to the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, as to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be redeemed and the Trustee shall select, in such
manner as in its sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair, the Debentures or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000.00) to be redeemed. 
 Section 10.4. Payment of Debentures Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 10.3, the Debentures or portions of Debentures with respect to which
such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, and at the place or places stated in such notice at the applicable Redemption Price or Special Redemption Price and on and

portion of the Debenture so presented. 
 ARTICLE XI. 
 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE AND LEASE 
 Section 11.1. Company May
Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Debentures shall prevent any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other Person (whether or not affiliated with the Company) or
successive consolidations or mergers in which the Company or its successor or successors shall be a party or parties, or shall prevent any sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of the property or capital stock of the Company or its
successor or successors as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to any other Person (whether or not affiliated with the Company, or its successor or successors) authorized to acquire and operate the same; provided, however,
that the Company hereby covenants and agrees that, upon any such consolidation, merger (where the Company is not the surviving corporation), sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and

Company, shall be expressly assumed by supplemental indenture satisfactory in form to the Trustee executed and delivered to the Trustee by the entity formed by such consolidation, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or by the entity
which shall have acquired such property or capital stock. 
 Section 11.2. Successor Entity to be Substituted. In case of

such successor entity shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Company, and thereupon the predecessor entity shall be relieved of any further liability or obligation hereunder or
upon the Debentures. Such successor entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue in its own name, any or all of the Debentures issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee or
the Authenticating Agent; and, upon the order of such successor entity instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
deliver any Debentures which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company, to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for authentication, and any Debentures which such successor entity thereafter shall cause to be
signed and delivered to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for that purpose. All the Debentures so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Debentures theretofore or thereafter issued in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Debentures had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

conveyance, transfer or other disposition, and any assumption, permitted or required by the terms of this Article XI complies with the provisions of

that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with, and at the cost and expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction of and

construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein. 
 Section 14.11.
Assignment. The Company will have the right at all times to assign any of its rights or obligations under this Indenture to a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company, 

  

 43 

 
provided that, in the event of any such assignment, the Company will remain liable for all such obligations. Subject to the foregoing, this Indenture is
binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Indenture may not otherwise be assigned by the parties hereto. 
 Section 14.12. Acknowledgment of Rights. The Company agrees that, with respect to any Debentures held by the Trust or the
Institutional Trustee of the Trust, if the Institutional Trustee of the Trust fails to enforce its rights under this Indenture as the holder of Debentures held as the assets of such Trust after the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Capital Securities of such Trust have so directed such Institutional Trustee, a holder of record of such Capital Securities may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, institute legal proceedings directly against the Company to enforce such
Institutional Trustee’s rights under this Indenture without first instituting any legal proceedings against such trustee or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such event is
attributable to the failure of the Company to pay interest (or premium, if any) or principal on the Debentures on the date such interest (or premium, if any) or principal is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date),
the Company agrees that a holder of record of Capital Securities of the Trust may directly institute a proceeding against the Company for enforcement of payment to such holder directly of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the
Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the Debentures. 
 ARTICLE XV. 
 SUBORDINATION OF
DEBENTURES 
 Section 15.1. Agreement to Subordinate. The Company covenants and agrees, and each holder of
Debentures by such Securityholder’s acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Debentures shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article XV; and each holder of a Debenture, whether upon original issue or upon
transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. 
 The payment by the Company of the principal of, and
premium, if any, and interest on all Debentures shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding
at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred. 
 No provision of this Article XV shall prevent the occurrence of any default or
Event of Default hereunder. 
 Section 15.2. Default on Senior Indebtedness. In the event and during the continuation of
any default by the Company in the payment of principal, premium, interest or any other payment due on any Senior Indebtedness of the Company following any grace period, or in the event that the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company has
been accelerated because of a default and such acceleration has not been rescinded or canceled and such Senior Indebtedness has not been paid in full, then, in either case, no payment shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal
(including redemption) of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Debentures. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any
payment shall be received by the Trustee when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraph of this Section 15.2, such payment shall, subject to Section 15.7, be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered
to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, but only
to the extent that the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their 

  

 44 

 
representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Trustee in writing within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on the
Senior Indebtedness and only the amounts specified in such notice to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
 Section 15.3. Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment by the Company or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any
dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due upon all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be
paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money in accordance with its terms, before any payment is made by the Company, on account of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Debentures. Upon any such dissolution or winding-up
or liquidation or reorganization, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Securityholders or the Trustee would be entitled to receive from
the Company, except for the provisions of this Article XV, shall be paid by the Company, or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Securityholders or by
the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated by the
Company) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the
extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money’s worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to
the Securityholders or to the Trustee. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the
Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance
with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any
indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness, remaining unpaid
to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. 
 For purposes of this Article XV, the words “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as
reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article XV with respect to
the Debentures to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness, that may at the time be outstanding, provided that (i) such Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and
(ii) the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another
corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article XI
of this Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the 

  

 45 

 
conditions stated in Article XI of this Indenture. Nothing in Section 15.2 or in this Section shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee
under or pursuant to Section 6.6 of this Indenture. 
 Section 15.4. Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of
all Senior Indebtedness, the Securityholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company, applicable to such Senior Indebtedness
until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debentures shall be paid in full. For the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to
which the Securityholders or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article XV, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by
Securityholders or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and the holders of the Debentures be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of
such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XV are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, on the other hand. 
 Nothing contained in this Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Debentures is intended
to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Debentures, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Debentures
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debentures as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holders of the Debentures and
creditors of the Company, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the holder of any Debenture from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under
this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XV of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company, received upon the exercise of any such remedy. 
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI
of this Indenture, and the Securityholders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a
certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Securityholders, for the purposes of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this
Article XV. 
 Section 15.5. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Securityholder by such Securityholder’s
acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Securityholder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XV and appoints the Trustee such
Securityholder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 Section 15.6. Notice by the Company. The Company
shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Principal Office of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the
Debentures pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XV or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would
prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Debentures pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV, unless and until a Responsible 

  

 46 

 
Officer of the Trustee at the Principal Office of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior
Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist;
provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section at least 2 Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including,
without limitation, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debenture), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to
apply the same to the purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within 2 Business Days prior to such date. 
 The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written
notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or representative on behalf of such holder), to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee or
representative on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any
payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which
such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XV, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person
pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. 
 Section 15.7. Rights of the Trustee; Holders
of Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article XV in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of
Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 
 With respect to the
holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article XV, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of
such Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture,
the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of such Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Securityholders, the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue
of this Article XV or otherwise. 
 Nothing in this Article XV shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 6.6. 
 Section 15.8. Subordination May Not Be Impaired. No right of any present or future holder
of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such
holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company, with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with. 
 Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without
the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Securityholders, without incurring responsibility to the Securityholders and without impairing or 

  

 47 

 
releasing the subordination provided in this Article XV or the obligations hereunder of the holders of the Debentures to the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior
Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior
Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company, and any other Person.

 Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debenture 
 of 
 Omni Financial Services, Inc. 
 March 26, 2003 
 Omni Financial Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Company” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to), for value received promises to pay to U. S. Bank National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely as Institutional Trustee for Omni Statutory Trust II (the “Holder”) or registered assigns, the
principal sum of five million one hundred fifty-five thousand dollars ($5,155,000.00) on March 26, 2033, and to pay interest on said principal sum from March 26, 2003, or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an
“Interest Payment Date”) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on March 26, June 26, September 26 and December 26 of each year commencing on
June 26, 2003, at an annual rate equal to 4.41063% beginning on (and including) the date of original issuance and ending on (but excluding) June 26, 2003 and at an annual rate for each successive period beginning on (and including)
June 26, 2003, and each succeeding Interest Payment Date, and ending on (but excluding) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (each a “Distribution Period”), equal to 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described below, plus 3.15% (the
“Coupon Rate”); provided, however, that prior to March 26, 2008, the Coupon Rate shall not exceed 11.75%, applied to the principal amount hereof, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available
for payment, and on any overdue principal and (without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest (including Additional Interest) at the Interest Rate in
effect for each applicable period, compounded quarterly, from the dates such amounts are due 

  

 A-1-2 

 
until they are paid or made available for payment. The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
in the Distribution Period concerned divided by 360. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Debenture is not a Business Day, then a payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which
is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case
with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable. The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the
Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be fifteen days prior to the day on which the relevant Interest
Payment Date occurs. Any such interest installment not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such regular record date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date. 
 “3-Month LIBOR” as used herein, means
the London interbank offered interest rate for three-month U.S. dollar deposits determined by the Trustee in the following order of priority: (i) the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month
maturity that appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date (“Telerate Page 3750” means the display designated as “Page 3750” on the Dow Jones Telerate Service or such other page
as may replace Page 3750 on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits);
(ii) if such rate cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Trustee will request the principal London offices of four leading banks in the London interbank market to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as
percentages per annum) to prime banks in the London interbank market for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the
arithmetic mean of such quotations; (iii) if fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (ii) above, the Trustee will request four major New York City banks to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed
as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for loans in U.S. dollars as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two such quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; and
(iv) if fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (iii) above, 3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month LIBOR determined with respect to the Distribution Period immediately preceding such current Distribution Period. If the
rate for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity that initially appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date is superseded on the Telerate Page 3750 by a corrected rate by 12:00 noon
(London time) on such Determination Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the applicable page will be the applicable 3-Month LIBOR for such Determination Date. As used herein, “Determination Date” means the date that is two
London Banking Days (i.e., a business day in which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market) preceding the commencement of the relevant Distribution Period. 
 The Interest Rate for any Distribution Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be modified
by United States law. 
 All percentages resulting from any calculations on the Debentures will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one
hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655), and all 

  

 A-1-3 

 
dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward)). 
 The principal of and interest on this Debenture shall be payable at the office or agency of the Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company)
maintained for that purpose in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made by check
mailed to the registered holder at such address as shall appear in the Debenture Register if a request for a wire transfer by such holder has not been received by the Company or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the holder
hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of this Debenture is the Institutional Trustee, the payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made in immediately available funds at such place and to such account
as may be designated by the Trustee. 
 So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, from
time to time, and without causing an Event of Default, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures at any time and from time to time during the term of the Debentures, for up to
20 consecutive quarterly periods (each such extended interest payment period, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Period no interest (including Additional Interest) shall be due and payable (except any Additional Sums that
may be due and payable). No Extension Period may end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. During an Extension Period, interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and interest on such accrued interest will accrue at an annual rate
equal to the Interest Rate in effect for such Extension Period, compounded quarterly from the date such interest would have been payable were it not for the Extension Period, to the extent permitted by law (such interest referred to herein as
“Additional Interest”). At the end of any such Extension Period the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Debentures (together with Additional Interest thereon); provided, however, that no Extension
Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date; provided further, however, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not and shall not permit any Affiliate to engage in any of the activities or transactions described
on the reverse side hereof and in the Indenture. Prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such period, provided that such period together with all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall
not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, or extend beyond the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, the Company may commence a new
Extension Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest or Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and
payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest. The Company must give the Trustee notice of its election to begin or extend an Extension Period at least 5 Business Days prior to the regular record date (as such term is used in
Section 2.8 of the Indenture) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date with respect to which interest on the Debentures would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this Debenture is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment
in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Debenture is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each holder of this Debenture, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions,
(b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any
and all such purposes. Each holder hereof, by his or her acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now
outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions. 
  

 A-1-4 

 This Debenture shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be valid
or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee. 
 The provisions of this Debenture are continued on the reverse side hereof and such provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF DEBENTURE] 
 This Debenture is one of the floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures of the Company, all issued or to be issued under and
pursuant to the Indenture dated as of March 26, 2003 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered between the Company and the Trustee, to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of
rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of the Debentures. The Debentures are limited in aggregate principal amount as specified in the Indenture. 
 Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Special Event prior to March 26, 2008, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Debentures in whole,
but not in part, at any Interest Payment Date, within 120 days following the occurrence of such Special Event, at the Special Redemption Price. 
 In addition, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, but in all cases in a principal amount with integral multiples of $1,000.00, on any Interest Payment Date on or after March 26, 2008, at the
Redemption Price. 
 Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, the Company
will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date, as applicable, all the Debentures so called for redemption at the appropriate Redemption
Price or Special Redemption Price. 
 If all, or less than all, the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Company will give the Trustee notice
not less than 45 nor more than 60 days, respectively, prior to the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, as to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be redeemed and the Trustee shall select, in such manner as in
its sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair, the Debentures or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000.00) to be redeemed. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any redemption of Debentures by the Company shall be subject to the receipt of any and all required regulatory approvals. 
 In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon demand of the Trustee, the principal of all of the Debentures shall become due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the
conditions provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the
holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Debentures; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall without the consent of the holders of
each Debenture then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the fixed maturity of any Debenture, or reduce the principal amount thereof or any premium thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce
any amount payable on redemption thereof or make the principal thereof or any interest or premium thereon payable in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Debentures, or impair or affect the right of any Securityholder to institute
suit for payment thereof or impair the right of repayment, if any, at the option of the holder, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Debentures the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture. 

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding on
behalf of the holders of all of the Debentures to 

  

 A-1-7 

 
waive (or modify any previously granted waiver of) any past default or Event of Default, and its consequences, except a default (a) in the payment of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Debentures, (b) in respect of covenants or provisions hereof or of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Debenture affected, or
(c) in respect of the covenants contained in Section 3.9 of the Indenture; provided, however, that if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be
effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver, provided, further, that if the consent of the holder of each
outstanding Debenture is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all
purposes of the Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by the Indenture, said default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Debentures and the Indenture be
deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, including Additional Interest, on this Debenture at the time and place and at the rate and
in the money herein prescribed. 
 The Company has agreed that if Debentures are initially issued to the Trust or a trustee of such Trust in
connection with the issuance of Trust Securities by the Trust (regardless of whether Debentures continue to be held by such Trust) and (i) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, (ii) the Company shall be in
default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Capital Securities Guarantee, or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period
as provided herein and such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing, then the Company shall not, and shall not allow any Affiliate of the Company to, (x) 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 or its Affiliates’ capital stock (other than payments of dividends or distributions to the Company) or make any guarantee payments with
respect to the foregoing or (y) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in
interest to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (x) and (y) above, (1) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan
or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of
the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, if any, (2) as a result of any exchange or conversion of
any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or
series of the Company’s capital stock, (3) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or
exchanged, (4) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant
thereto, (5) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being
paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock and any 

  

 A-1-8 

 
cash payments in lieu of fractional shares issued in connection therewith, or (6) payments under the Capital Securities Guarantee). 
 The Debentures are issuable only in registered, certificated form without coupons and in minimum denominations of $100,000.00 and any multiple of
$1,000.00 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to the transfer restrictions and limitations as may be contained herein and therein from time to time, this Debenture is transferable by the holder hereof on the Debenture
Register of the Company. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture at the Principal Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2 of the
Indenture, the Company shall execute, the Company or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Debenture for a like
aggregate principal amount. All Debentures presented for registration of transfer or for exchange or payment shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to, the Company and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent duly executed by the holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or
registration of transfer of Debentures, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any
transfer agent and any Debenture registrar may deem the Person in whose name such Debenture shall be registered upon the Debenture Register to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such Debenture (whether or not such Debenture shall be
overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Debenture and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent
nor any transfer agent nor any Debenture registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being or upon his order shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual
to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Debenture. 
 No recourse for the payment of the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on any Debenture, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or in any supplemental indenture, or
in any such Debenture, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, employee, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor Person
of the Company, either directly or through the Company or any successor Person of the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly
understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of the Indenture and the issue of the Debentures. 
 Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Debenture shall have the meanings assigned in the Indenture dated as of the date of original issuance of
this Debenture between the Trustee and the Company. 
 THE INDENTURE AND THE DEBENTURES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

 2001 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 OF 
 OMNI FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. 
  

	1.	Purpose 

 The purpose of the
2001 Stock Incentive Plan of Omni Financial Services, Inc. (the “Plan”) is to encourage and enable selected employees, directors, independent contractors, consultants and advisors of Omni Financial Services, Inc. (Omni Financial Services,
Inc., together with any successor corporation thereto, being referred to herein as the “Corporation”) and related entities to acquire or to increase their holdings of common stock of the Corporation, $0.000085 par value per share
(such common stock of the Corporation, together with the voting common stock of any successor to the Corporation, being referred to herein as the “Common Stock”), and other proprietary interests in the Corporation in order to promote a
closer identification of their interests with those of the Corporation and its shareholders, thereby further stimulating their efforts to enhance the efficiency, soundness, profitability, growth and shareholder value of the Corporation. This purpose
will be carried out through the granting of benefits (collectively referred to herein as “Awards”) to selected participants, including the granting of incentive stock options (“Incentive Options”) intended to qualify under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), nonqualified stock options (“Nonqualified Options”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), stock awards in the form of bonus stock
(“Bonus Stock”) and restricted stock awards (“Restricted Stock Awards”), and performance awards in the form of performance shares (“Performance Shares”) and performance units (“Performance Units”). Incentive
Options and Nonqualified Options shall be referred to herein collectively as “Options.” Bonus Stock and Restricted Stock Awards shall be referred to herein collectively as “Stock Awards.” Performance Shares and Performance Units
shall be referred to herein collectively as “Performance Awards.”  
  

	2.	Administration of the Plan 

 (a) The
Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) unless the Board, in its sole discretion, delegates all or part of its administrative authority with respect to the Plan to a committee of the Board (the
“Committee”). For purposes herein, the Board, and, upon its delegation of the administrative responsibilities for the Plan to the Committee, the Committee, shall be referred to as the “Administrator.” In the event that the
Corporation shall become subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Committee shall be comprised solely of two or more “non-employee directors,” as said term
is defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, unless the Board determines that such committee composition is not necessary or advisable. Further, in the event that the Corporation becomes subject to the requirements of Section 162(m) of the
Code, the Committee shall, unless the Board determines otherwise, be comprised solely of two or more “outside directors,” as such term is defined under Section 162(m) or the regulations thereunder, or otherwise in accordance with
Section 162(m) and such regulations. 
 (b) Any action of the Administrator with respect to the Plan may be taken by a written
instrument signed by all of the members of the Board or Committee, as appropriate, and any such action so taken by written consent shall be as fully effective as if it had been taken by a majority of the members at a meeting duly held and called.
Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have full and sole authority in its discretion to take any action with respect to the 

 
Plan including, without limitation, the authority (i) to determine all matters relating to Awards, including selection of individuals to be granted
Awards, the types of Awards, the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, subject to an Award, and all terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations of an Award and shares of Common Stock subject to an Award; (ii) to prescribe the form or
forms of the agreements (as defined in Section 11) evidencing any Awards granted under the Plan; (iii) to establish, amend and rescind rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan; and (iv) to construe and interpret the
Plan and agreements evidencing Awards granted under the Plan, to establish and interpret rules and regulations for administering the Plan and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan. The
Administrator shall also have authority, in its sole discretion, to accelerate the date that any Award which was not otherwise exercisable or vested shall become exercisable or vested in whole or in part without any obligation to accelerate such
date with respect to any other Award granted to any recipient. In addition, the Administrator shall have the authority and discretion to establish terms and conditions of Awards as the Administrator determines to be necessary or appropriate to
conform to the applicable requirements or practices of jurisdictions outside of the United States. All determinations of the Administrator with respect to the Plan will be final and binding on the Corporation and all persons having or claiming an
interest in any Award granted under the Plan. No member of the Board or Committee, as applicable, shall be liable while acting as Administrator for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award or agreement.

 (c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 2, the Administrator may delegate to the Chief Executive Officer or
President of the Corporation the authority to grant Awards to eligible individuals, and to make any or all of the determinations reserved for the Administrator in the Plan and summarized in Section 2(b) with respect to such Awards (subject to
such terms and restrictions as may be established by the Administrator); provided, however, that, to the extent required by Section 16 of the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code, the individual, at the time of said grant or other
determination, (i) is not deemed to be an officer or director of the Corporation within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act; and (ii) is not deemed to be a covered employee (as defined in Section 21(a)). To the extent
that the Administrator has delegated authority to grant Awards pursuant to this Section 2(c) to the Chief Executive Officer or President, references to the Administrator shall include references to such person, subject, however, to the
requirements of the Plan, Rule 16b-3 and other applicable law. 
  

	3.	Effective Date 

 The
effective date of the Plan shall be October 16, 2001 (the “Effective Date”). Awards may be granted under the Plan on and after the Effective Date, but no Awards may be granted after October 15, 2011.  
  

	4.	Shares of Stock Subject to the Plan; Award Limitations 

 (a) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(c), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to Awards
shall not exceed eight hundred fifty thousand (850,000) shares. To the extent required pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, during any 12-month period, (i) no Participant may be granted Awards for more than 250,000 shares of Common
Stock, and (ii) no Participant may receive awards under the Plan payable in cash having an aggregate dollar value in excess of $300,000, subject in each case to adjustment as provided in Section 4(c) herein. Shares issued and delivered
under the Plan shall be authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of the Corporation. 
  

 4 

 (b) The Corporation hereby reserves sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock to meet the grant of
Awards hereunder. Any shares subject to an Award that is subsequently forfeited, expires or is terminated may again be the subject of an Award granted under the Plan. To the extent that any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award are not
delivered to a Participant (or his beneficiary) because the Award is forfeited, canceled, settled in cash, or used to satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations, such shares shall not be deemed to have been issued for purposes of determining the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. If the purchase price of an Award granted under the Plan is satisfied by tendering or withholding shares of Common Stock, only the number of shares issued net of the
shares of Common Stock tendered or withheld shall be deemed issued for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. 
 (c) If there is any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock because of a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Corporation or a
related entity, or if the Board of Directors of the Corporation declares a stock dividend, stock split distributable in shares of Common Stock or reverse stock split, or if there is a similar change in the capital stock structure of the Corporation
or a related entity affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be correspondingly adjusted, and the Administrator shall make such adjustments to awards or to any provisions of this
Plan as the Administrator deems equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of awards or as may otherwise be advisable. 
  

	5.	Eligibility 

 An Award may be granted
only to an individual who satisfies the following eligibility requirements on the date the Award is granted: 
 (a) The individual is
either (i) an employee of the Corporation or a related entity, (ii) a director of the Corporation or a related entity, or (iii) an independent contractor, consultant or advisor (collectively, “independent contractors”)
providing bona fide services to the Corporation or a related entity. For this purpose, an individual shall be considered to be an “employee” only if there exists between the individual and the Corporation or a related entity the legal and
bona fide relationship of employer and employee.  
 (b) With respect to the grant of Incentive Options, the individual is an employee
who does not own, immediately before the time that the Incentive Option is granted, stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an
individual who owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of the Corporation may be granted an Incentive Option if the option price (as determined pursuant to Section 6(b), is at least 110% of the fair market value
of the Common Stock (as defined in Section 6(b)(ii)), and the option period (as defined in Section 6(c)(i)) does not exceed five years. For this purpose, an individual will be deemed to own stock which is attributable to him under
Section 424(d) of the Code. 
 (c) The individual, being otherwise eligible under this Section 5, is selected by the Administrator
as an individual to whom an Award shall be granted (a “Participant”). 
  

 5 

	6.	Options 

 (a) Grant of Options:
Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant Options to such eligible individuals in such numbers, upon such terms and at such times as the Administrator shall determine. Both Incentive
Options and Nonqualified Options may be granted under the Plan; provided, however, that Incentive Options may only be granted to employees of the Corporation or a related corporation. To the extent that an Option (or portion thereof) is designated
as an Incentive Option but does not qualify as such under Section 422 of the Code, the Option (or portion thereof) shall be treated as a Nonqualified Option. 
 (b) Option Price; Date of Grant: The price per share at which an Option may be exercised (the “option price”) shall be established by the Administrator at the time the Option is granted and shall be
set forth in the terms of the agreement evidencing the grant of the Option; provided that, (i) in no event shall the option price be less than the par value per share of the Common Stock; and (ii) in the case of an Incentive Option, the
option price shall be no less than 100% of the fair market value per share of the Common Stock on the date the Option is granted. In addition, the following rules shall apply: 
 (i) An Incentive Option shall be considered to be granted on the date that the Administrator acts to grant the Option, or on any later
date specified by the Administrator as the effective date of the Option. A Nonqualified Option shall be considered to be granted on the date the Administrator acts to grant the Option or any other date specified by the Administrator as the date of
grant of the Option. 
 (ii) For the purposes of the Plan, the “fair market value” per share of the Common Stock
shall be determined in good faith by the Administrator and, except as may otherwise be determined by the Administrator, fair market value shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions: (A) if the shares of Common Stock are
listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, the fair market value shall be the closing sales price of the shares on the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange (as applicable) on the date
immediately preceding the valuation date (that is, the date the Option is granted or other determination is made), or, if there is no transaction on such date, then on the trading date nearest preceding the valuation date for which closing price
information is available, and, provided further, if the shares are quoted on the Nasdaq National Market or the NASDAQ SmallCap Market of the Nasdaq Stock Market and are not listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock
Exchange, then the fair market value shall be the closing sales price for such stock (or the average of closing bid and asked prices, if no sales were reported) as quoted on such system on the date nearest preceding the valuation date for which such
information is available; or (B) if the shares of Common Stock are not listed or reported in any of the foregoing, then the fair market value shall be determined by the Administrator in accordance with the applicable provisions of
Section 20.2031-2 of the Federal Estate Tax Regulations or in any other manner consistent with the Code and accompanying regulations. 
 (iii) In no event shall there first become exercisable by an employee in any one calendar year Incentive Options granted by the Corporation or any related corporation with respect to shares having an aggregate fair
market value (determined at the time an Incentive Option is granted) greater than $100,000; provided that, if such limit is exceeded, then the first $100,000 of shares to become exercisable in such calendar year will be Incentive Options and the
Options (or portion thereof) for shares with a value in excess of $100,000 

  

 6 

 
that first became exercisable in that calendar year will be Nonqualified Options. In the event the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended
after the effective date of this Plan to provide for a different limit on the fair market value of shares permitted to be subject to Incentive Options, then such different limit shall be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any
Incentive Option granted after the date of such amendment. 
 (c) Option Period and Limitations on the Right to Exercise Options 

 (i) The term of an Option (the “option period”) shall be determined by the Administrator at the time the Option
is granted. With respect to Incentive Options, such period shall not extend more than ten (10) years from the date on which the Option is granted (unless otherwise limited by Section 5(b)). Any Option or portion thereof not exercised
before expiration of the option period shall terminate. The period or periods during which an Option may be exercised and other terms and conditions to exercise shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 (ii) An Option may be exercised by giving written notice to the Corporation at such place as the Administrator or its designee shall
direct. Such notice shall specify the number of shares to be purchased pursuant to an Option and the aggregate purchase price to be paid therefor, and shall be accompanied by full payment of such purchase price. Unless an individual option agreement
provides otherwise, such payment may be in the form of cash or check, and, where expressly approved by the Administrator, payment may also be made: 
 (A) By delivery (by either actual delivery or attestation) of shares of Common Stock (valued at the date of exercise at their fair market value by the Administrator by applying the provisions of Section 6(b)(ii))
that have been owned by the Participant for more than six (6) months and that are otherwise acceptable to the Administrator; 
 (B) By withholding shares of Common Stock (valued at the date of exercise at their fair market value by the Administrator by applying the provisions of Section 6(b)(ii)) otherwise issuable upon exercise of the Option; 
 (C) With respect only to purchases upon exercise of an Option after a public market for the Common Stock exists, by delivery of written
notice of exercise to the Corporation and delivery to a broker of written notice of exercise and irrevocable instructions to promptly deliver to the Corporation the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the option price; 
 (D) By such other payment methods as may be specifically approved by the Administrator; or 
 (E) By any combination of the foregoing. 
 For the purposes herein, a “public market” for the Common Stock shall be deemed to exist (i) upon consummation of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of the Common Stock pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or (ii) if the Administrator otherwise determines that there is an established public market for the Common Stock. 
  

 7 

 (iii) Unless an individual agreement provides otherwise, no Option granted to a
Participant who was an employee at the time of grant shall be exercised unless the Participant is, at the time of exercise, an employee as described in Section 5(a), and has been an employee continuously since the date the Option was granted,
subject to the following: 
 (A) An Option shall not be affected by any change in the terms, conditions or status of the
Participant’s employment, provided that the Participant continues to be an employee of the Corporation or a related entity. 
 (B) The employment relationship of a Participant shall be treated as continuing intact for any period that the Participant is on military or sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, provided that the period of such leave does not
exceed ninety (90) days, or, if longer, as long as the Participant’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute or by contract. The employment relationship of a Participant shall also be treated as continuing intact while the
Participant is not in active service because of disability. For purposes of the Plan, “disability” shall have the meaning ascribed to the term in any shareholders agreement, employment agreement, consulting agreement or other similar
agreement, if any, to which the Participant is a party, or if no such agreement applies, “disability” shall mean the inability of the Participant to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable
physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death, or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. The Administrator shall determine whether a Participant is
disabled within the meaning of this paragraph, and, if applicable, the date of a Participant’s termination of employment or service for any reason (the “termination date”). 
 (C) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment of a Participant is terminated because of disability within the
meaning of subparagraph (B), or if the Participant dies while he is an employee or dies within ninety (90) days after the termination of his employment because of disability, the Option may be exercised only to the extent exercisable on the
date of the Participant’s termination date, except that the Administrator may in its discretion accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of the Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the termination date. The Option must be
exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, whichever shall be applicable: (X) the close of the period of one year next succeeding the termination date or, if applicable, such other time period as may be specified in the
individual agreement; or (Y) the close of the option period. In the event of the Participant’s death, such Option shall be exercisable by such person or persons as shall have acquired the right to exercise the Option by will or by the laws
of intestate succession. 
 (D) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment of the Participant is
terminated for any reason other than disability (as defined in subparagraph (B)), death or for “cause” (as defined in subparagraph (E)), his Option may be exercised to the extent exercisable on the Participant’s termination date,
except that the Administrator may in its discretion accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of the Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the date of such 

  

 8 

 
termination of employment. The Option must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, whichever shall be applicable: (X) the
close of the period of ninety (90) days next succeeding the termination date or, if applicable, such other time period as may be specified in the individual agreement; or (Y) the close of the option period. If the Participant dies
following such termination of employment and prior to the earlier of the dates specified in (X) or (Y) of this subparagraph (D), the Participant shall be treated as having died while employed under subparagraph (C) immediately
preceding (treating for this purpose the Participant’s date of termination of employment as the termination date). In the event of the Participant’s death, such Option shall be exercisable by such person or persons as shall have acquired
the right to exercise the Option by will or by the laws of intestate succession. 
 (E) Unless the Administrator determines
otherwise, if the employment of the Participant is terminated for “cause,” his Option shall lapse and no longer be exercisable as of the effective time of his termination of employment, as determined by the Administrator. For purposes of
the Plan, (X) the Participant’s termination shall be for “cause” if such termination results from the Participant’s termination for “cause” under his employment, consulting or other agreement with the Corporation
or a related entity, if any; or (Y) if the Participant has not entered into any such employment, consulting or other agreement, then the Participant’s termination shall be for “cause” if termination results due to the
Participant’s (i) dishonesty or conviction of a crime; (ii) failure to perform his duties for the Corporation or a related entity to the satisfaction of the Corporation; or (iii) engaging in conduct that could be materially
damaging to the Corporation without a reasonable good faith belief that such conduct was in the best interest of the Corporation. The determination of “cause” shall be made by the Administrator and its determination shall be final and
conclusive. 
 (F) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may in its discretion accelerate the date for exercising
all or any part of an Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the termination date, extend the period during which an Option may be exercised, modify the other terms and conditions of exercise, or any combination of the foregoing. 

(iv) Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, an Option granted to a Participant who was a non-employee director or an
independent contractor of the Corporation or a related entity at the time of grant (and who does not thereafter become an employee, in which case he shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6(c)(iii)) may be exercised only to the extent
exercisable on the date of the Participant’s termination of service to the Corporation or a related entity (unless the termination was for cause), and must be exercised, if at all, prior to the first to occur of the following, as applicable:
(X) the close of the period of ninety (90) days next succeeding the termination date or, if applicable, such other time period as may be specified in the individual agreement; or (Y) the close of the option period. If the services of
such a Participant are terminated for cause (as defined in Section 6(c)(iii)(E)), his Option shall lapse and no longer be exercisable as of the effective time of his termination of services, as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Administrator may in its discretion accelerate the date for exercising all or any part of an Option which was not otherwise exercisable on the termination date, extend the period during 

  

 9 

 
which an Option may be exercised, modify the other terms and conditions of exercise, or any combination of the foregoing. 
 (v) A Participant and his legal representatives, legatees and distributees shall not be deemed to be the holder of any shares subject to
an Option and shall not have any rights as a shareholder unless and until certificates for such shares are delivered to him or them under the Plan. The issuance or transfer of shares may be subject to such restrictions on transfer or other
restrictions as may be imposed pursuant to Section 17 herein or pursuant to other restrictions established by the Corporation. 
 (vi) A certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) and distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) as soon as
practicable following receipt of notice of exercise, payment in full of the purchase price and satisfaction of any other conditions established by the Administrator. 
 (d) Nontransferability of Options 
 (i) Incentive Options shall not be transferable
(including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession. Nonqualified Options shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws
of intestate succession, except as may be permitted by the Administrator in its sole discretion in a manner consistent with the registration provisions of the Securities Act. Except as may be permitted by the preceding sentence, an Option shall be
exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by him or by his guardian or legal representative. The designation of a beneficiary does not constitute a transfer. 
 (ii) To the extent required under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an Option may not,
without the consent of the Administrator, be disposed of by the Participant until the expiration of six months after the date the Option was granted. 
  

	7.	Stock Appreciation Rights 

 (a)
Grant of SARs: Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant SARs to such eligible individuals, in such numbers, upon such terms and at such times as the Administrator shall determine.
SARs may be granted to an optionee of an Option (hereinafter called a “Related Option”) with respect to all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Related Option (a “Tandem SAR”) or may be granted separately to
a Participant (a “Freestanding SAR”). Subject to the limitations of the Plan, SARs shall be exercisable in whole or in part upon such terms and conditions as are provided in the agreement relating to the grant of the SAR. 
  

 10 

 (b) Tandem SARs: A Tandem SAR may be granted either concurrently with the grant of the Related
Option or (if the Related Option is a Nonqualified Option) at any time thereafter prior to the complete exercise, termination, expiration or cancellation of such Related Option. Tandem SARs shall be exercisable only at the time(s) and to the extent
that the Related Option is exercisable (and may be subject to such additional limitations on exercisability as the Administrator may establish), and in no event after the complete termination or full exercise of the Related Option. For purposes of
determining the number of shares of Common Stock that remain subject to such Related Option and for purposes of determining the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which other Awards may be granted, upon the exercise of Tandem SARs, the
Related Option shall be considered to have been surrendered to the extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which such Tandem SARs are exercised. Upon the exercise or termination of the Related Option, the Tandem SARs with
respect thereto shall be canceled automatically to the extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Related Option was so exercised or terminated. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, upon the exercise of a Tandem SAR,
the Participant shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation, for each share of Common Stock with respect to which the Tandem SAR is being exercised, consideration equal in value to the excess of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock
on the date of exercise over the Related Option price per share; provided, that the Administrator may establish a maximum value payable for such SARs. 
 (c) Freestanding SARs: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the base price of a Freestanding SAR shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock (as determined in accordance
with Section 6(b)(ii)) on the date of grant of the Freestanding SAR. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, upon the exercise of a Freestanding SAR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation, for each share of Common
Stock with respect to which the Freestanding SAR is being exercised, consideration equal in value to the excess of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over the base price per share of such Freestanding SAR;
provided, that the Administrator may establish a maximum value payable for such SARs. 
 (d) Exercise of SARs: 
 (i) Subject to the terms of the Plan, SARs shall be exercisable in whole or in part upon such terms and conditions as may be established
by the Administrator. The period during which an SAR may be exercisable shall not exceed ten (10) years from the date of grant or, in the case of Tandem SARs, such shorter option period as may apply to the Related Option. Any SAR or portion
thereof not exercised before expiration of the period stated in the agreement relating to the grant of the SAR shall terminate. 
 (ii) SARs may be exercised by giving written notice to the Corporation at such place as the Administrator shall direct. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the date of exercise of the SAR shall mean the date on which the
Administrator or its designee shall have received notice from the Participant of the exercise of such SAR. 
 (iii) No SAR may
be exercised unless the Participant is, at the time of exercise, an eligible Participant, as described in Section 5, and has been a Participant continuously since the date the SAR was granted, subject to the provisions of Sections 6(c)(iii) and
(iv). 
  

 11 

 (iv) A certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of
an SAR for shares shall be issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) and distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) as soon as practicable following receipt of notice of exercise. 
 (v) A Participant and his legal representatives, legatees and distributees shall not be deemed to be the holder of any shares subject to
an SAR and shall not have any rights as a shareholder unless and until certificates are delivered to him or them under the Plan. The issuance of shares upon exercise of an SAR may be subject to such restrictions on transfer or other restrictions as
may be imposed pursuant to Section 17 herein or pursuant to other restrictions established by the Corporation. 
 (e)
Consideration: The consideration to be received upon the exercise of the SAR by the Participant shall be paid in cash, shares of Common Stock (valued at fair market value on the date of exercise of such SAR in accordance with
Section 6(b)(ii)) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as elected by the Administrator, subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable agreement. The Corporation’s obligation arising upon the exercise of the SAR may be
paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or earnings equivalent (if any) as the Administrator may determine. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issuable upon exercise of the SAR and, unless the Administrator determines
otherwise, the Participant will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. 
 (f) Limitations: The applicable SAR agreement shall
contain such terms, conditions and limitations consistent with the Plan as may be established by the Administrator. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, any such terms, conditions or limitations relating to a Tandem SAR shall not restrict
the exercisability of the Related Option. 
 (g) Nontransferability: 
 (i) SARs shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate
succession (except to the extent, if any, that a Related Option is a Nonqualified Option and is transferable pursuant to Section 6(d)). Except as may be permitted by the preceding sentence, SARs may be exercised during the Participant’s
lifetime only by him or by his guardian or legal representative. The designation of a beneficiary does not constitute a transfer. 
 (ii) To the extent required under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an SAR may not, without the consent of the Administrator, be disposed of by the Participant until the expiration of six
months after the date the SAR was granted. 
  

	8.	Stock Awards 

 (a) Grant and
Vesting of Stock Awards: Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator may in its sole and absolute discretion grant Stock Awards to such eligible individuals, for such numbers of shares, upon such terms and at such times as the
Administrator shall determine. Stock Awards shall be payable in shares of Common Stock. The Administrator may grant Stock Awards in the form of shares of Bonus Stock that vest immediately upon grant and that are not subject to any forfeiture
conditions. The Administrator also may grant Stock Awards in the form of 

  

 12 

 
Restricted Stock Awards that are subject to certain conditions, which conditions must be met in order for the Stock Award to vest and be earned (in whole or
in part) and no longer subject to forfeiture. Such conditions may include but are not limited to continued service for a certain period of time (the “restriction period”), attainment of performance objectives, retirement, displacement,
disability, death, or a combination of these factors. Performance objectives may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants and shall be based on such corporate, business unit or division and/or individual performance
factors and criteria as the Administrator in its sole discretion may deem appropriate, which factors may include but are not limited to one or more of the following criteria: (i) consolidated earnings before or after taxes (including earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization); (ii) net income; (iii) operating income; (iv) earnings per share; (v) book value per share; (vi) return on shareholders’ equity; (vii) return on investment;
(viii) return on capital; (ix) improvements in capital structure; (x) expense management; (xi) profitability of an identifiable business unit or product; (xii) maintenance or improvement of profit margins; (xiii) stock
price or total shareholder return; (xiv) market share; (xv) revenues or sales; (xvi) costs; (xvii) cash flow; (xviii) working capital; (xix) return on assets; (xx) economic wealth created; and (xxi) strategic
business criteria. The Administrator shall have sole authority to determine whether and to what degree Stock Awards have vested and been earned and to establish and interpret the terms and conditions of Stock Awards and the provisions herein. The
Administrator shall also have authority, in its sole discretion, to accelerate the date that any Award which was not otherwise vested shall become vested in whole or in part without any obligation to accelerate such date with respect to any other
Award granted to any recipient. 
 (b) Forfeiture of Stock Awards: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment or
service of a Participant shall terminate for any reason and all or part of a Stock Award has not vested pursuant to the terms of the Plan and related agreement, such Award, to the extent not then vested, shall be forfeited immediately upon such
termination and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect thereto. 
 (c) Dividend and Voting Rights; Share
Certificates: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, (i) a Participant shall have no dividend rights, voting rights, or other rights as a shareholder with respect to shares subject to a Stock Award until the Stock Award has
vested and been earned and the underlying shares have been issued; (ii) a certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock subject to a Stock Award shall be issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) and distributed to the
Participant (or his beneficiary) as soon as practicable after the shares subject to the Award (or portion thereof) shall be earned and vested; and (iii) no certificate shall be issued hereunder in the name of the Participant (or his
beneficiary) except to the extent the shares represented thereby have been earned and vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrator determines that the shares subject to a Stock Award shall be issued prior to the vesting and earning of
the Award, the Corporation or its designee shall have the right to retain custody of the certificates evidencing the shares subject to the Stock Award and to require the Participant to deliver to the Corporation or its designee a stock power,
endorsed in blank, with respect to such Award.  
  

 13 

 (d) Nontransferability: 
 (i) Stock Awards that have not vested and been earned shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation)
other than by will or the laws of intestate succession. The recipient of a Stock Award shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber shares subject to the Award until the restriction period has expired and until all conditions to
vesting have been met. The delivery or transfer of shares subject to a Stock Award following vesting of the Award may be subject to such restrictions on transfer or other restrictions as may be imposed pursuant to Section 17 herein or pursuant
to other restrictions established by the Corporation. 
 (ii) To the extent required under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act,
shares of Common Stock subject to such Award may not, without the consent of the Administrator, be sold or otherwise disposed of within six months following the date of grant of such Award. 
  

	9.	Performance Awards 

 (a) Grant and
Earning of Performance Awards: Subject to the terms of the Plan, Performance Awards in the form of either Performance Shares or Performance Units, or a combination thereof, may be granted to Participants upon such terms and at such times as
shall be determined by the Administrator. An award of Performance Shares is a grant of a right to receive shares of Common Stock or the cash value thereof (or a combination thereof) which is contingent upon the achievement of performance or other
objectives during a specified period. An award of Performance Units is a grant of a right to receive a designated dollar value amount of Common Stock which is contingent upon the achievement of performance or other objectives during a specified
period. Subject to Section 4(a), above, the Administrator shall have complete discretion in determining the number of Performance Units or Performance Shares granted to each Participant. The Administrator shall determine the nature, length and
starting date of the period during which a Performance Award may be earned (the “performance period”), and shall determine the conditions which must be met in order for a Performance Award to be granted or to vest or be earned (in whole or
in part), which conditions may include but are not limited to specified performance objectives, completion of the performance period, or a combination of such conditions. The Administrator shall determine the performance objectives to be used in
valuing Performance Awards and shall determine the extent, if any, to which such Awards have been earned. Performance objectives may vary from Participant to Participant and between groups of Participants and shall be based on such corporate,
business unit or division and/or individual performance factors and criteria as the Administrator in its sole discretion may deem appropriate, which factors may include but are not limited to one or more of the following criteria:
(i) consolidated earnings before or after taxes (including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization); (ii) net income; (iii) operating income; (iv) earnings per share; (v) book value per share;
(vi) return on shareholders’ equity; (vii) return on investment; (viii) return on capital; (ix) improvements in capital structure; (x) expense management; (xi) profitability of an identifiable business unit or
product; (xii) maintenance or improvement of profit margins; (xiii) stock price or total shareholder return; (xiv) market share; (xv) revenues or sales; (xvi) costs; (xvii) cash flow; (xviii) working capital;
(xix) return on assets; (xx) economic wealth created; and (xxi) strategic business criteria. The Administrator shall have sole authority to determine whether and to what degree Performance Awards have been earned and are payable and
to interpret the terms and conditions of Performance Awards and the provisions herein. The Administrator also shall determine the form and terms of payment of Performance Awards. The Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accelerate
the date that any Performance Award granted to a 

  

 14 

 
Participant shall be deemed to be earned in whole or in part, without any obligation to accelerate such date with respect to other Awards. 
 (b) Form of Payment: Payment of the amount to which a Participant shall be entitled upon earning a Performance Award shall be made in cash, shares
of Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Payment may be made in a lump sum or in installments upon such terms as may be established by the Administrator.

 (c) Forfeiture of Performance Awards: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, if the employment or service of a Participant
shall terminate for any reason and the Participant has not earned all or part of a Performance Award pursuant to the terms of the Plan and related agreement, such Award, to the extent not then earned, shall be forfeited immediately upon such
termination and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect thereto. 
 (d) Dividend and Voting Rights; Share
Certificates: Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, (i) a Participant shall have no dividend rights, voting rights, or other rights as a shareholder with respect to shares, if any, subject to a Performance Award until the
Performance Award has been earned and the underlying shares have been issued; (ii) a certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock, if any, subject to a Performance Award shall be issued in the name of the Participant (or his
beneficiary) and distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) as soon as practicable after the Award has been earned; and (iii) no certificate shall be issued hereunder in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) except to the
extent that the Award has been earned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrator determines that shares subject to a Performance Award shall be issued prior to the earning of the Award, the Corporation or its designee shall have the right
to retain custody of the certificates evidencing the shares subject to the Performance Award and the right to require the Participant to deliver to the Corporation or its designee a stock power, endorsed in blank, with respect to such Award.

 (e) Nontransferability: 
 (i) Performance Awards which have not been earned shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession. The recipient of a
Performance Award shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber any shares subject to the Award until the performance period has expired and until the conditions to earning the Award have been met. The delivery or transfer of shares
subject to a Performance Award following vesting of the Award may be subject to such restrictions on transfer or other restrictions as may be imposed pursuant to Section 17 herein or pursuant to other restrictions established by the
Corporation. 
 (ii) To the extent required under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, shares of Common Stock, if any, subject to
such Award may not, without the consent of the Administrator, be sold or otherwise disposed of within six months following the date of grant of such Award. 
  

	10.	Withholding 

 Prior to the delivery or
transfer of any certificate for shares or any other benefit conferred under the Plan, the Corporation shall require any recipient of an Award to pay to the Corporation in 

  

 15 

 
cash the amount of any local, state or federal withholding tax or other amount required by any governmental authority to be withheld and paid over by the
Corporation to such authority for the account of such recipient. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit the recipient to satisfy such obligation in whole or in part, and any other local, state or federal
income tax obligations relating to such an Award, by electing (the “election”) to have the Corporation withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares to which the recipient is entitled. The number of shares to be withheld shall have a
fair market value as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined as nearly equal as possible to (but not exceeding) the amount of such obligations being satisfied. Each election must be made in writing to the Administrator in
accordance with election procedures established by the Administrator. 
  

	11.	Agreement 

 The grant of any Award
under the Plan shall be evidenced by the execution of an agreement (the “agreement”) between the Corporation and the Participant. Such agreement shall state terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to the Award and any may state such
other terms, conditions and restrictions, including but not limited to terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to shares subject to an Award, as may be established by the Administrator. 
  

	12.	Code Section 162(m) Performance-Based Compensation Compliance 

 To the extent that Section 162(m) of the Code is applicable, the Administrator shall have discretion to determine the extent, if any, that Awards conferred under the Plan to covered employees, as such term is
defined in Section 21(a), are intended to comply with the qualified performance-based compensation exception to employer compensation deductions set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code. 
  

	13.	Section 16(b) Compliance 

 To the
extent that any Participants in the Plan are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, it is the general intention of the Corporation that transactions under the Plan shall comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and the Plan shall be
construed in favor of the Plan transactions meeting the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any successor rules thereto. If any Plan provision is later found not to be in compliance with Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the provisions shall be deemed
null and void. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to participants who are
officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other participants. 
  

	14.	No Right or Obligation of Continued Employment or Service 

 Nothing contained in the Plan shall confer upon a Participant the right to continue in the employment or service of the Corporation or a related entity as an employee, director or independent contractor or interfere
in any way with the right of the Corporation or a related entity to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or determined by the Administrator, (i) all rights of a Participant
with respect to that portion of his Award which has not yet been exercised, vested or earned shall terminate upon termination of employment or service of the Participant with the Corporation or a related entity, and (ii) Awards granted under
the Plan to a Participant shall not be affected by any change in the duties or position of 

  

 16 

 
the Participant, as long as such individual remains an employee of or in service to the Corporation or a related entity. 
  

	15.	Unfunded Plan; Not a Retirement Plan 

 (a) Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Corporation or any related entity including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets
or other property which the Corporation or any related entity, in their discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A participant shall have only a contractual right to the Common Stock or amounts, if any, distributable
or payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Corporation or any related entity. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee that the assets of such corporations shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.

 (b) In no event shall any amounts accrued, distributable or payable under the Plan be treated as compensation for the purpose of
determining the amount of contributions or benefits to which any person shall be entitled under any retirement plan sponsored by the Corporation or a related entity that is intended to be a qualified plan within the meaning of Section 401(a) of
the Code.
