The terms and provisions contained in the form of the Notes annexed hereto as Exhibit A, shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this First Supplemental Indenture.  The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional Notes under this First Supplemental Indenture, provided that any such Additional Notes that are not fungible with the Initial Notes for United States federal income tax purposes will be issued with a different CUSIP number than the CUSIP number issued to the Initial Notes.  Any Additional Notes issued shall have identical terms and conditions as the Initial Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance and, if issued after November 30, 2019, the first Interest Payment Date.  The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes shall be part of the same Series as the Initial Notes and will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this First Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture.  The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date will be represented initially by one or more Global Notes registered in the name of Cede & Co., as a nominee of the Depository, The Depository Trust Company.  The Notes shall be in initial denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
(b)    Terms of the Notes.    
(1) Principal Amounts.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes (the “Initial Notes”) that may be initially authenticated and delivered under the Indenture on the Issue Date shall be $500,000,000.  The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of Notes, issue additional Notes (in any such case, “Additional Notes”) having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Initial Notes.  Any Additional Notes and the Initial Notes shall each constitute a single Series under the Indenture and all references to the Notes shall include the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes, unless the context otherwise requires.  The aggregate principal amount of the Additional Notes shall be unlimited.
(2) Maturity Date.  The entire outstanding principal of the Notes shall be payable on May 30, 2029. 
(3) Interest Rate.  The rate at which the Notes shall bear interest shall be 5.250% per annum; the date from which interest shall accrue on the Notes shall be June 12, 2019, or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or provided for; the Interest Payment Dates for the Notes shall be May 30 and November 30 of each year, beginning November 30, 2019; the interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, will be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the May 15 or November 15, as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. 
(4) Currency.  The currency of denomination of the Notes is United States Dollars.  Payment of principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes shall be made in United States Dollars.
(c)    Additional Notes.        With respect to any Additional Notes, in addition to any other requirements set forth in the Base Indenture, the Company shall set forth in a Board Resolution or in a supplemental indenture or in an Officer’s Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 

9

(1) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this First Supplemental Indenture; 
(2) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes; and 

(3) whether such Additional Notes will be issued as Global Notes or as Certificated Notes and whether and to what extent the Additional Notes will contain additional legends.
 
SECTION 2.3    Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes.  Section 2.15 of the Base Indenture is hereby supplemented, solely with respect to the Notes, to add the following provisions: 
(i) Transfers of Interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes.  A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor of the Depository or a nominee of each successor.  Global Notes shall be exchanged by the Company for Certificated Notes if the Depository (a) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for the Global Notes or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days.  Upon the occurrence of any of the preceding events in subclause (a) or (b) above, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note will be entitled to receive a Certificated Note equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such note registered in its name.  Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.8 and 2.11 of the Base Indenture.  Every Global Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (i) or Section 2.8 or 2.11 of the Base Indenture, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note.  A Global Note may not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this paragraph (i). 
(ii) Legends.  Each Global Note issued under this First Supplemental Indenture shall bear a legend in substantially the form as specified in Section 2.15(c) of the Base Indenture and any other appropriate legends specified in an Officer’s Certificate. 
(iii) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes.  At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Certificated Notes or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or cancelled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.12 of the Base Indenture.  At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Certificated Notes, or if a particular Global Note has been redeemed or repurchased in part and not in whole, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depository at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 

ARTICLE III

REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

SECTION 3.1    Mandatory Redemption; Sinking Fund.  The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 

SECTION 3.2    Optional Redemption. 
(a)    Article III of the Base Indenture is hereby supplemented by the provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture which shall apply to the Notes.
(b)    Prior to February 28, 2029, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at its option, on at least 15 but not more than 60 days prior notice, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (ii) the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed on the redemption date, discounted to the date of 

10

redemption, on a semiannual basis, at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.  On or after February 28, 2029, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, at its option, on at least 15 but not more than 60 days prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.
(c)    If an optional redemption date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date.  In determining the redemption price and accrued interest, interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.  Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption and those Notes will cease to be outstanding.
(d)    The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, the Treasury Rate or any aspect of such calculations.
(e)    If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes for redemption in compliance with the requirements of the Depository, or if the Notes are not held through a Depository or the Depository prescribes no method of selection, on a pro rata basis or by lot, in accordance with the Depository’s customary procedures, subject to adjustments so that no Note in an unauthorized denomination remains outstanding after such redemption or purchase; provided, however, that no Note of $2,000 in aggregate principal amount of less shall be redeemed in part. 
(f)    Notices of redemption will be sent by electronic submission (for Notes held in book-entry form) or first class mail at least 15 but (except as set forth in clause (g)) not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article VIII of this First Supplemental Indenture.
(g)    Notices of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be conditioned on the satisfaction of one or more conditions, including, but not limited to, the consummation of an acquisition or financing transaction or equity offering. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
(h)    If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original Note if such Notes are held in physical form. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

(i)    The Company and its affiliates may at any time and from time to time purchase Notes in the open market, by tender offer, negotiated transactions or otherwise.

SECTION 3.3    Repurchase at the Option of Holders-Change of Control Repurchase Event.
 
(a)    If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 3.2 with respect to all outstanding Notes and all conditions to such redemption have either been satisfied or waived, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.3 (the “Change of Control Offer”).  In the Change of Control Offer, the Company 

11

will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

(b)    Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 3.2 with respect to all outstanding Notes, the Company will send a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase all Notes on the date specified in the notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which date will be no earlier than 15 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.  If a Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date.  The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.3 by virtue of such compliance.

(c)    On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

(1)accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2)deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn; and

(3)deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company.

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.  The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.
(d)    The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer with respect to such Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all of the Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture with respect to the Notes under Section 3.2 at any time prior to 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.  The Change of Control Payment Date may, at the Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as any condition shall be satisfied, or that such Change of Control Repurchase Event may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that such condition shall not have been satisfied by the Change of Control Payment Date, or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed.
(e)    This Section 3.3 shall be applicable (subject to Section 4.4) whether or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable.

12

(f)    If Holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company as described above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to, but not including, the redemption date.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN COVENANTS 
SECTION 4.1    Limitation on Liens. 

The Company will not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur or assume any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) that secures any Indebtedness on any properties or assets of the Company or such Subsidiary, without securing the Notes (together with, at the option of the Company, any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary ranking equally in right of payment with the Notes) equally and ratably with or, at the option of the Company, prior to, such other Indebtedness for so long as such other Indebtedness is so secured.  Any Lien that is granted to secure the Notes under this Section 4.1 shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes under this Section 4.1.

SECTION 4.2    Limitation on Disposition of Stock.

As long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will not, and it will not permit any Subsidiary to issue, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Capital Stock of any Insurance Subsidiary, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Capital Stock of any Insurance Subsidiary, or warrants, rights or options to subscribe for or purchase shares of Capital Stock of any Insurance Subsidiary, unless such issuance, sale, transfer or other disposition is: (i) for at least fair value (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company acting in good faith), (ii) to the Company or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, (iii) required by any regulation or order or any governmental regulatory authority or (iv) for the purpose of qualifying directors.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Company may (i) merge or consolidate any of its Subsidiaries (including any Insurance Subsidiary) into or with another of the Company’s wholly-owned Subsidiaries and (ii) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Company’s business in accordance with Section 5.1 below.

SECTION 4.3    Provision of Financial Information.

The Company shall file with the Trustee and transmit to Holders of the Notes such information, documents and other reports, and such summaries thereof, as may be required pursuant to the TIA at the time and in the manner provided pursuant to the TIA.
Delivery of the reports and documents described in Section 4.3 to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the receipt by the Trustee of any such document or report will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of the covenants contained in the Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate).

The Trustee shall have no liability whatsoever to determine whether any financial information has been posted by the Company on EDGAR or any other website set up for such purpose.

SECTION 4.4    Covenant Suspension

(a)    If on any date following the Issue Date, (i) the Notes are rated by both of the Rating Agencies as Investment Grade and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event” 

13

and the date thereof being referred to as the “Suspension Date”), then, Section 3.3 will no longer be applicable to the Notes (the “Suspended Covenant”) until the occurrence of the Reversion Date (as defined below).
(b)    In the event that the Company and its Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenant for any period of time pursuant to Section 4.4(a), and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their rating of the Notes as Investment Grade or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below Investment Grade (in each case, to the extent previously rated as Investment Grade by such Rating Agency), then the Company and the Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenant with respect to the Notes with respect to future events. The period of time between the Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” 
(c)    Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenant may be reinstated after the Reversion Date, (i) no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind will be deemed to exist or to have occurred under the Indenture or the Notes with respect to the Suspended Covenant, and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising during any Suspension Period, in each case as a result of a failure to comply with the Suspended Covenant during the Suspension Period (or, upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time based solely on any action taken or event that occurred during the Suspension Period), and (ii) following a Reversion Date, the Company and each Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any contractual commitments or obligations arising during any Suspension Period and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

(d)    Promptly following the occurrence of any Suspension Date or Reversion Date, the Company shall provide an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee regarding such occurrence. The Trustee shall have no duty to (i) monitor the ratings of the Notes, (ii) ascertain whether a Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date have occurred, or (iii) notify the Holders of any of the foregoing.

(a)    The Company may not merge or consolidate with, or sell, convey, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of it and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(1)(A) the Company is the continuing corporation or (B) the entity (if other than the Company) formed by the consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the entity that acquires all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and expressly assumes, by supplemental indenture in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, payment of the principal of and any premium and interest on all the Notes and the performance of all the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture;

(3)the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that such transaction complies with the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

The predecessor company will be released from its obligations under the Indenture and the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Company, as applicable) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under the Indenture, but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the predecessor will not be so released.

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
SECTION 6.1    Events of Default.
 
(a)    Each of the following is an “Event of Default” with respect to the Notes:

(1)    default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and the continuance of such default for 30 days;
(2)    default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, if any, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;
(3)    failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Section 5.1 or, if applicable, Section 3.3;
(4)    default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in the Indenture or under the Notes and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after notice as provided below (in each case, other than matters that would constitute an Event of Default under clauses (1) through (3) above);
(5)    default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which default:
(a)    is caused by a failure to pay principal on such Indebtedness at its final stated maturity within the grace period provided in the agreements or instruments governing such Indebtedness (“payment default”); or
(b)    results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its stated final, maturity;
and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more (or its foreign currency equivalent);
(6)    (a)    the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:
(i)          commences a voluntary case,
(ii)         consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,
(iii)        consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,
(iv)        makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or
(v)         generally is unable to pay its debts as the same become due; or

15

(b)          a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(i)          is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case,
(ii)         appoints a custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of its property, or
(iii)        orders the liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; and
 (7)    failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) (net of any amounts that are covered by insurance), which judgments remain unsatisfied or undischarged for any period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgments shall not be in effect.
However, a default under Section 6.1(a)(4) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes notify the Company (with copy to the Trustee) of the default and the Company does not cure such default within the time specified Section 6.1(a)(4) after receipt of such notice.
(b)    If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(a)(6) above with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice in writing specifying the Event of Default to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable immediately.  In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(a)(5) above has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(5) shall be remedied or cured by the Company or a Subsidiary or waived by the requisite holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 30 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto and if (1) the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium or interest on the Notes that became due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived.
(c)    If an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(a)(6) above occurs and is continuing with respect to the Company, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.  The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive all past defaults (except with respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest) and rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.
(d)    If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture or the Notes at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.  

16

Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless:
(1)    such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;
(2)    the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;
(3)    such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;
(4)    the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and
(5)    the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(e)    The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.  In the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall be required in the exercise of its powers to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.  The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or the Notes or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.  Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to security or indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses, liabilities and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

(f)    If a Default occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will send to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after the Trustee obtains such knowledge.  Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if the Trustee determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders.  In addition, the Company is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019), a certificate indicating whether the signers thereof know of any Default that occurred during the previous year.  The Company also is required to deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the knowledge thereof if such event is still continuing, written notice of any events which would constitute certain Defaults, their status and what action the Company is taking or proposing to take in respect thereof.

SECTION 6.2    Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

ARTICLE VII

(3)    modify or change any provision of the Indenture affecting the ranking of the Notes in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; or
(4)    modify any of the provisions of this paragraph or provisions relating to waiver of defaults or certain covenants, except to increase any such percentage required for such actions or to provide that 

18

certain other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby.
(b)    The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past default under the Indenture and its consequences, except a default:

(2)    in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected.

ARTICLE VIII

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF THE INDENTURE; DEFEASANCE 

SECTION 8.1    Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
(a)    The Company may terminate its obligations under the Indenture with respect to the Notes when:
(1)    either: (A) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (B) all such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable or (ii) will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year (a “Discharge”) under irrevocable arrangements for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes, not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest to the Stated Maturity or date of redemption;
(2)    the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums then due and payable under the Indenture by the Company with respect to the Notes;
(3)    the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;
(4)    the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be; and
(5)    the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee, each stating that all conditions precedent under the Indenture relating to the Discharge of the Notes have been complied with.
(b)    The Company may elect, at its option, to have its obligations with respect to the outstanding Notes discharged (“defeasance”).  Such defeasance means that the Company will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, except for:
(1)    the rights of Holders of such Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Notes when payments are due,
(2)    the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust,
(3)    the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Company’s obligations in connection with the Indenture, 
(4)    the Company’s right of optional redemption, and
(5)    the defeasance provisions of the Indenture.
(c)    In addition, the Company may elect, at its option, to have the obligations of the Company released with respect to its obligations under Article IV of this First Supplemental Indenture (“covenant defeasance”) and 

19

any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a Default with respect to the Notes.  In the event covenant defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment and bankruptcy and insolvency events with respect to the Company) described under Section 6.1 will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.
(d)    In order to exercise either defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to the outstanding Notes:

(1)    the Company must irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to the benefits of the Holders of such Notes: (A) money in an amount or (B) U.S. government obligations, which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient without reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the entire indebtedness in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Notes on the Stated Maturity thereof or (if the Company has made irrevocable arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) the redemption date thereof, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and such Notes;
(2)    in the case of defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable United States federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders and beneficial owners of such outstanding Notes will not recognize gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such Notes and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge were not to occur;
(3)    in the case of covenant defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders and beneficial owners of such outstanding Notes will not recognize gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and covenant defeasance to be effected with respect to such Notes and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur;
(4)    no Default with respect to the outstanding Notes shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit after giving effect thereto (other than a Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien to secure such borrowing);
(5)    such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or material instrument (other than the Indenture) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party is bound; and
(6)    the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such defeasance or covenant defeasance have been complied with.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 8.1(d)(2) or (3) above with respect to a defeasance or covenant defeasance need not to be delivered if all Notes not therefore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable or (y) will become due and payable at Stated Maturity within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under irrevocable arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company.

(Reverse of Note) 
5.250% Senior Notes due 2029 
CNO FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. 
Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
(1) Interest.  CNO Financial Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or its successor (together, the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note (the “Notes”) at a fixed rate of 5.250% per annum.  The Company will pay interest in United States dollars semi-annually in arrears on May 30 and November 30 of each year, commencing _______________  or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”).  Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including June 12, 2019; provided that if there is no existing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (but after June 12, 2019), interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date, except in the case of the original issuance of the Notes, in which case interest shall accrue from the date of authentication.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.  The interest rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.
(2) Method of Payment.  The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the May 15 and November 15 preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such Regular Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Base Indenture (as defined below) with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to principal, premium and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which, initially, will be the corporate trust office of the Trustee located at U.S. Bank National Association, 100 Wall Street/Suite 1600, New York, NY 10005, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided written wire transfer instructions to the Company and the Paying Agent.  Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
Any payments of principal of and interest on this Note prior to Stated Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon.  The amount due and payable at the maturity of this Note shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at an office of the Trustee or the Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes. 
 
(3) Paying Agent and Registrar.  Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar.  The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.  The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
(4) Indenture.  The Company issued the Notes under an indenture dated as of June 12, 2019 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the first supplemental indenture dated as of June 12, 2019 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and the Base Indenture, as so supplemented and amended, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.  The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”).  To the extent the provisions of this Note are inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern.  The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms.
The Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, the Treasury Rate or any aspect of such calculations.

B-3

(5) Mandatory Redemption; Sinking Fund.  The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
(6) Optional Redemption. 
Except as set forth below, the Company shall not be entitled to redeem the Notes at its option. 
Prior to February 28, 2029, the Notes will be redeemable as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, on at least 15 but not more than 60 days prior notice (the date of any such redemption, a “Redemption Date”), at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (ii) the present value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed on the applicable Redemption Date, discounted to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed to the Redemption Date.  On or after February 28, 2029, we may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, at our option, on at least 15 but not more than 60 days prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption and those Notes will cease to be outstanding.
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations or (2) if fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are obtained by the Company, the average of all such Quotations.
 
“Independent Investment Banker” means Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and its respective successors, and, at the Company’s option, another investment banking firm of national standing selected by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and their respective successors, and, at the Company’s option, other primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City selected by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to any Note, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal and interest thereon that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to such Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.
(6) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.  The Notes are in registered form without coupons in initial denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.  The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the 

B-4

Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture.  The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.  The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.  Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a Regular Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
(7) Persons Deemed Owners.  The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
(8) Defaults and Remedies.  Each of the following constitutes an “Event of Default”: 
(A)    default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and the continuance of such default for 30 days;
(B)    default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, if any, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;
(C)    failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Section 5.1 or, if applicable, Section 3.3 of the First Supplemental Indenture;
(D)    default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in the Indenture or under the Notes and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after notice as provided below (in each case, other than matters that would constitute an Event of Default under clauses (A) through (C) above);
(E)    default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which default:
(a)    is caused by a failure to pay principal on such Indebtedness at its final stated maturity within the grace period provided in the agreements or instruments governing such Indebtedness (“payment default”); or
(b)    results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its stated final, maturity;
and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a payment default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $100.0 million or more (or its foreign currency equivalent);
(F)    (a)    the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:
(i)          commences a voluntary case,
(ii)         consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,
(iii)        consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,
(iv)        makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or
(v)         generally is unable to pay its debts as the same become due; or
(b)          a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(i)          is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case,
(ii)         appoints a custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial 

B-5

statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of its property, or
(iii)        orders the liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; and
(G)    failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or group of Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited consolidated financial statements for the Company and its Subsidiaries), would constitute a Significant Subsidiary to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) (net of any amounts that are covered by insurance), which judgments remain unsatisfied or undischarged for any period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgments shall not be in effect.
However, a default under clause (8)(D) above will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes notify the Company (with copy to the Trustee) of the default and the Company does not cure such default within the time specified in clause (8)(D) above after receipt of such notice.
 
(9) Trustee Dealings with the Company.  The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
(10) No Recourse Against Others.  No director, officer, employee, stockholder, general or limited partner or incorporator, past, present or future, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as such or in such capacity, shall have any personal liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture by reason of his, her or its status as such director, officer, employee, stockholder, general or limited partner or incorporator.  Each Holder of the Notes by accepting the Note waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuances of such Notes. 
No recourse may, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Company or under the Indenture or any related documents, any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Trustee in its individual capacity, or (ii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee, agent, successor or assign of the Trustee, each in its individual capacity, or (iii) any holder of equity in the Trustee. 
Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.  The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 
(11) Authentication.  This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 
(12) Abbreviations.  Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
(13) CUSIP, ISIN Numbers.  Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to the Holders.  No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 
 
(14) GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.  THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE TRUSTEE AND EACH HOLDER BY ACCEPTING A SECURITY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND

BUSINESS FINANCING MODIFICATION AGREEMENT
(Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement)
This Business Financing Modification Agreement is entered into as of June 5, 2019, but effective as of May 31, 2019, by and among INUVO, INC. (“Parent”), BABYTOBEE, LLC (“Babytobee”), KOWABUNGA MARKETING, INC. (“Kowabunga”), VERTRO, INC. (“Vertro”), ALOT, INC. (“ALOT”), and NETSEER, INC. (“NetSeer” and together with Parent, Babytobee, Kowabunga, Vertro and ALOT, individually and collectively, jointly and severally, “Borrower”), and WESTERN ALLIANCE BANK, an Arizona corporation (“Lender”).
1.    DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS: Among other indebtedness which may be owing by Borrower to Lender, Borrower is indebted to Lender pursuant to, among other documents, an Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement, dated October 11, 2018, by and between Borrower and Lender (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Financing Agreement”).  Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Business Financing Agreement.   
Hereinafter, all indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lender shall be referred to as the “Indebtedness” and the Business Financing Agreement and any and all other documents executed by Borrower in favor of Lender shall be referred to as the “Existing Documents.”
2.    DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS.
A.    Modifications to Business Financing Agreement:
i.      Section 1.2 of the Business Financing Agreement is amended by adding the following sentence at the end thereof:
Lender shall have no obligation to finance any Eligible Unbilled Receivable at any time (including at any time prior to the Unbilled Sublimit Termination Date), but may finance any Eligible Unbilled Receivables in its sole discretion.
ii.    The following term and its definition set forth in Section 14.1 of the Business Financing Agreement are amended in their entirety and replaced with the following:
“Unbilled Sublimit Termination Date” is the date that Lender provides written notice to Borrower, in its sole discretion, that the Unbilled Receivable Sublimit is terminated. 
3.    CONSISTENT CHANGES.  The Existing Documents are each hereby amended wherever necessary to reflect the changes described above.
4.    PAYMENT OF AMENDMENT FEE AND EXPENSES.  Borrower shall pay Lender (a) an amendment fee in the amount of $2,000 (the “Third Amendment Fee”), and (b) all out-of-pocket expenses. 
5.    NO DEFENSES OF BORROWER/GENERAL RELEASE.  Borrower agrees that, as of this date, it has no defenses against the obligations to pay any amounts under the Indebtedness.  Each Borrower (each, a “Releasing Party”) acknowledges that Lender would not enter into this Business Financing Modification Agreement without Releasing Party’s assurance that it has no claims against Lender or any of Lender’s officers, directors, employees or agents.  Except for the obligations arising hereafter under this Business Financing Modification Agreement, each Releasing Party releases Lender, and each of Lender’s and entity’s officers, directors and employees from any known or unknown claims that Releasing Party now has against Lender of any nature, including any claims that Releasing Party, its successors, counsel, and advisors may in the future discover they would have now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but not limited to any claims arising out of or related to the Business Financing Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.  Releasing Party waives the provisions of California Civil Code section 1542, which states:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.
The provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon each Releasing Party and its shareholders, agents, employees, assigns and successors in interest.  The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest.  The provisions of this section shall survive payment in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Business Financing Modification Agreement and the Business Financing Agreement, and/or Lender’s actions to exercise any remedy available under the Business Financing Agreement or otherwise.
6.    CONTINUING VALIDITY.  Borrower understands and agrees that in modifying the existing Indebtedness, Lender is relying upon Borrower’s representations, warranties, and agreements, as set forth in the Existing Documents.  Except as expressly modified pursuant to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, the terms of the Existing Documents remain unchanged and in full force and effect.  Lender’s agreement to modifications to the existing Indebtedness pursuant to this Business Financing Modification Agreement in no way shall obligate Lender to make any future modifications to the Indebtedness.  Nothing in this Business Financing Modification Agreement shall constitute a satisfaction of the Indebtedness.  It is the intention of Lender and Borrower to retain as liable parties all makers and endorsers of Existing Documents, unless the party is expressly released by Lender in writing.  No maker, endorser, or guarantor will be released by virtue of this Business Financing Modification Agreement.  The terms of this paragraph apply not only to this Business Financing Modification Agreement, but also to any subsequent business financing modification agreements.
7.    CONDITIONS.  The effectiveness of this Business Financing Modification Agreement is conditioned upon (a) payment of the Third Amendment Fee and (b) payment of Lender’s legal fees and expenses in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Business Financing Modification Agreement.
8.    NOTICE OF FINAL AGREEMENT. BY SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT EACH PARTY REPRESENTS AND AGREES THAT: (A) THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, (B) THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES, AND (C) THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF ANY PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR UNDERSTANDINGS OF THE PARTIES.
[Signature Page Follows]

9.    COUNTERSIGNATURE.  This Business Financing Modification Agreement shall become effective only when executed by Lender and Borrower.
