not be deemed to apply to any other securities issued under the Base Indenture and shall not be deemed to amend, modify or supplement
the Base Indenture for any purpose other than with respect to the Notes. Unless otherwise expressly specified, references in this

Indenture to the extent any such term is defined in both the Base Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture;

 

(b)            To
the extent that the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture conflict with any provision of the Base Indenture, the provisions

REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION
OF HOLDERS

 

SECTION 3.1
Optional Redemption of the Notes.

 

(a)            Prior
to March 1, 2026, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at its option, on at
least 10 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 sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes
being redeemed on the redemption date, discounted to the date of redemption, on a semi-annual 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. Any
notice of redemption may be subject to one or more conditions precedent.

 

(b)            On
or after March 1, 2026, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, at its option, at
the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding,
the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on March 1 of the years set forth below:

 

    8

     

    

 

	Period	 	 	Redemption

 Price	 
	2026	 	 	 	101.875	%
	2027	 	 	 	101.250	%
	2028	 	 	 	100.625	%
	2029 and thereafter	 	 	 	100.000	%

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at any time and from time to time prior to March 1, 2024, the Company may redeem in the aggregate up to 40%
of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) with
the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Company, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal
amount thereof) of 103.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders
of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at
least 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional
Notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 120 days
after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed
to each holder of the Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

 

(d)            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 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.

 

(e)            The
Trustee shall have no obligation to calculate or verify the calculation of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments,
the Treasury Rate or any aspect of such calculations.

 

(f)            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, 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.

 

(g)            Notices
of optional redemption will be sent by electronic submission (for Notes held in book-entry form) or first class mail at least 10
but 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 4
of the Base Indenture.

 

(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 Notes 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 the Note upon cancellation of the original Note if such Notes are held in physical
form.

 

(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 3.2
Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event.

 

(a)          If
a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 3.1
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 3.2 (the “Change of Control
Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the
date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

 

(b)          Within
30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but
after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption
under Sections 3.1 with respect to all outstanding Notes, the Company shall send a notice to each Holder and the Trustee describing
the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on
the date specified in the notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), which date will be no earlier than
10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by law, 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 notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation
of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated
on or prior to the Change of Control Payment 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 Triggering 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 3.2
by virtue of such compliance.

 

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

 

(1)            accept
or cause a third party to 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
or cause a third party to 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 the Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased by the Company and that all conditions precedent to the Change
of Control Offer and to the repurchase by the Company of Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer have been complied with.

 

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.

 

    10

     

    

 

(d)            The
Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering 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 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 3.1, unless and until there is a default
in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.2, a Change
of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change
of Control Triggering Event (whether or not a Ratings Event has occurred), if a definitive agreement is in place for a Change of
Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

 

(e)            No
Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and
until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

event of default under any indenture or instrument under which the Company or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary has

acceleration is not rescinded or annulled within 30 days after notice pursuant to the Indenture has been provided; or

 

(5)            an
Event of Default under Section 501(f) or Section 501(g) of the Base Indenture in respect of the Company or
any Significant Subsidiary has occurred.

 

(b)            The
Trustee may withhold notice to the Holders of the Notes of any default, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium
or interest, if it considers such withholding of notice in the interest of such Holders.

 

SECTION 5.2
Remedies.

 

(a)          If
an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a)(5) 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 aggregate 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.

 

(b)          If
an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a)(5) 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 of the Notes.

 

(c)          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 of the Notes unless
such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any costs, liability and expenses, except
to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, when due.

 

(d)          The
Holders of a majority in aggregate 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, with respect to such Notes.

 

(e)          No
Holder of the Notes 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 aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

 

(3)            such
Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against any costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance
with such request;

inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(f)            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 costs, liability and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

 

(g)            The
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of
all the Notes rescind any acceleration or waive any existing or past defaults and its consequences under the Indenture, 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, except that each Holder of the Notes affected by a default must consent
to a waiver of:

 

(1)            a
default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes; and

 

(2)            a
default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be amended or modified without the consent of each
Holder of the Notes.

SECTION 8.1
Guarantees.

 

(a)            Each
of the Guarantors hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees (collectively, the “Guarantees”), on a joint
and several basis to each Holder of the Notes and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns on behalf of each Holder of the
Notes, the full and punctual payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307 of the Base Indenture)
interest on, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under the Base Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes
(including obligations to the Trustee), in each case, with respect to Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or its
agent pursuant to and in accordance with the Indenture when and as the same shall become due and payable, in accordance with the
terms of the Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Obligations”). 
Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further
assent from such Guarantor and that such Guarantor will remain bound under this Article VIII notwithstanding any extension
or renewal of any Obligation.  All payments under each Guarantee will be made as specified in Section 311 of the Base
Indenture.

 

(b)          
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety and
shall be absolute, full and unconditional, unaffected by, and irrespective of, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability
of the Notes, the Base Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of the Notes, the Base
Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Company with respect thereto by

filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require that the Trustee pursue

the outstanding principal of, interest on or any other amount payable under the Notes prior to recourse against such Guarantor
or its assets), protest or notice with respect to the Notes or the Debt evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants
that its Guarantee will not be discharged with respect to the Notes except by payment in full of the principal thereof and interest
thereon or as otherwise provided in the Base Indenture or in this Supplemental Indenture, including Section 8.4.  If
at any time any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes is rescinded or must be otherwise restored
or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such
payment shall be reinstated as of the date of such rescission, restoration or return as though such payment had become due but
had not been made at such times.

Neither a failure nor a delay on the part
of either the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article VIII shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right,
power or privilege.  The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes expressed in this Article VIII
are cumulative and exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits that either may have under this Article VIII at law,
in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Upon request of the Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably
necessary to give effect to this Supplemental Indenture.

(a)            Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holders of the Notes against the Company in respect of any amounts paid
to such Holders of the Notes by such Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of its Guarantee.

 

(b)            Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders of the Notes in respect
of any Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between
it, on the one hand, and the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Obligations
guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 502 of the Base Indenture for the purposes of the Guarantees
herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed
hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Section 502 of the
Base Indenture, such Obligations shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 8.2.

 

SECTION 8.3
Release of Guarantees. A Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released, and the Guarantor
that granted such Guarantee shall be automatically and unconditionally released from its Obligations:

 

(a)            in the event that all of the capital stock or other equity interests, or all or substantially all of the assets, of such Guarantor
are sold or transferred, including by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, in a transaction in compliance with the terms
of the Indenture;

 

(b)            upon defeasance as provided in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture as provided in Article 4

(c)            upon redemption of the Notes as provided in Section 3.1; or

 

(d)            upon release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee of all indebtedness under the Credit Agreement other than a release by or as
a result of payment under such Guarantee.

 

SECTION 8.4
Limitation and Effectiveness of Guarantees. Each Guarantee is limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount
that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor that gave such Guarantee without rendering such Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor,
voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of
creditors generally or the maximum amount otherwise permitted by law.

 

SECTION 8.5
Notation not Required. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 8.1 shall remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes.

HILLENBRAND, INC.

 

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

 

(1) Interest. Hillenbrand, Inc., an Indiana
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 3.7500% per annum. The Company will pay interest in United
States dollars semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing September 1, 2021 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 March 3, 2021; 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 March 3, 2021), 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, if any) on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders
of the Notes at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the relevant 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 301
of the Base Indenture 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, 60 Livingston Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota 55107, or, at the option of the Company, payment
of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes 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 (as described below). 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 July 9, 2010 (the “Base Indenture,”), a third supplemental indenture, dated as
of September 25, 2019 (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”), a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of
June 16, 2020 (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”), a fifth supplemental indenture, dated as of December 15,
2020 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”), a sixth supplemental indenture, dated as of December 15, 2020
(the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture”), and a seventh supplemental indenture, dated as of March 3, 2021 (the
 “Seventh Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture, the
Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, 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 of the Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such
terms.

 

    A-3 

     

    

 

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.

 

(5) Sinking Fund. The Company shall not be required
to make 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.

 

(a)            Prior
to March 1, 2026, the Notes will be redeemable in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company,
on at least 10 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 sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on
the Notes being redeemed on the applicable redemption date, discounted to the date of redemption, on a semi-annual basis (assuming
a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months), at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points, plus accrued
and unpaid interest on such Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date. Any notice of redemption may be subject
to one or more conditions precedent.

 

(b)            On
or after March 1, 2026, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, at its option, at
the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding,
the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on March 1 of the years set forth below:

 

	Period	 	Redemption

 Price	 
	2026	 	 	101.875	%
	2027	 	 	101.250	%
	2028	 	 	100.625	%
	2029 and thereafter	 	 	100.000	%

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at any time and from time to time prior to March 1, 2024, the Company may redeem in the aggregate up to 40%
of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional Notes) with
the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings by the Company, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal
amount thereof) of 103.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders
of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at
least 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of Additional
Notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 120 days
after the date on which any such Equity Offering is consummated upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed
to each holder of the Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United
States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity date comparable to the remaining term
of the Notes (as measured from the date of redemption and assuming for this purpose that the Notes matured on March 1, 2026)
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 the Notes.

 

    A-4 

     

    

 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect
to any redemption date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding
the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains
fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Quotations obtained.

 

“Independent Investment Banker” means one
of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of
HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, their respective successors and assigns and one other nationally recognized
investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer specified from time to time by the Company, except that if any of the
foregoing ceases to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”),
the Company may designate as a substitute another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer.

 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means,
with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment
Banker, 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 Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer as of 3:30 p.m., New York City
time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

 

On and after any redemption date, interest will cease to accrue
on the Notes called for redemption. Prior to any redemption date, the Company is required to deposit with the Trustee or with a
paying agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If
the Company is redeeming less than all the Notes , the Trustee under the indenture must select the Notes to be redeemed by such
method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate in accordance with methods generally used at the time of selection by fiduciaries
in similar circumstances.

 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with
respect to any Note, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal and interest thereon that would be due if such Notes matured
on March 1, 2026 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the related redemption date).

 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any
redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity (computed as of the second business day
immediately preceding such redemption date) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

 

(7) 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 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 transfer or exchange any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed.

 

(8) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder
of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

 

(9) Defaults and Remedies.

 

(A)         Each
of the following constitutes an “Event of Default”:

 

(1)            default
in any payment of interest on any Note when due, and the continuance of such default for 30 days;

 

    A-5

     

    

 

(2)            default
in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable;

 

(3)            default
for 60 days after written notice specifying the default from the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes to comply with any other agreement in the Indenture not specified above;

 

(4)            an
event of default under any indenture or instrument under which the Company or any Significant Subsidiary has outstanding at least
$100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of indebtedness for money borrowed, which results in the acceleration of that indebtedness
where the acceleration is not rescinded or annulled within 30 days after notice pursuant to the Indenture has been provided; or

 

(5)            an
Event of Default under Section 501(f) or Section 501(g) of the Base Indenture in respect of the Company or
any Significant Subsidiary has occurred.

 

(B)         The
Trustee may withhold notice to the Holders of the Notes of any default, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium
or interest, if it considers such withholding of notice in the interest of such Holders.

 

(C)         If
an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in in clause (A)(5) above or Section 5.1(a)(5) of
the Supplemental Indenture 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 aggregate 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.

 

(D)         If
an Event of Default described in clause (A)(5) above or Section 5.1(a)(5) of the Supplemental Indenture 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
of the Notes.

 

(E)          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 of the Notes unless
such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any costs, liability and expenses, except
to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, when due.

 

(F)         The
Holders of a majority in aggregate 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, with respect to such Notes.

 

(G)         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 aggregate 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 costs, liability and expenses to
be incurred in compliance with such request;

 

(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 aggregate 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.

 

    A-6

     

    

 

(H)         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 costs, liability and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

 

(I)          The
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes
rescind any acceleration or waive any existing or past defaults and its consequences under the Indenture, 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, except that each Holder of the Notes affected by a default must consent to a waiver
of:

 

(1)            a
default in payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Notes; and

 

(2)            a
default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be amended or modified without the consent of each Holder
of the Notes .

any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation, by reason of his, her or its status as

all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuances of the Notes.

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

Dear Ashley:

 

This letter agreement
(this “Agreement”), effective as of the date hereof, amends the employment letter agreement entered into by
and between you, Michaels Stores, Inc. (the “Company”) and The Michaels Companies, Inc. (“Parent”)
on December 26, 2019 (the “Employment Letter Agreement”) and the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement
evidencing a grant to you of 795,000 restricted stock units of Parent on January 6, 2020 (the “RSU Award Agreement”)
as set forth below.

 

In consideration of
the mutual covenants contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree to amend the Employment
Letter Agreement and RSU Award Agreement as follows:

 

1.            The
following sentence shall be added at the end of Section 4 of the Employment Letter Agreement:

 

“Notwithstanding any of
the foregoing, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the award agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A)
prior to the Second Anniversary, subject to your continued employment with the Company through the consummation of the Change of
Control (the “Closing”), upon the Closing, the Signing Bonus will vest in full and any repayment obligation
you may have with respect to the Signing Bonus will lapse in full.”

 

2.            The
last sentence of Section 6 of the RSU Award Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

“In the event of a Good
Leaver Termination or a Change of Control, such minimum required holding period requirements shall lapse in full.”

 

3.            A
new clause (c) shall be added at the end of Section 7 of the RSU Award Agreement as follows:

 

“(c)        In
the event of a Change of Control, this Section 7 will expire and be of no further force and effect. “

 

    

     

    

 

4.            Section 11(c) of
the Employment Letter Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

“The Company will reimburse
you for reasonable legal and compensation consultant fees incurred by you in entering into this Agreement, the Make-Whole Equity
Awards, and any compensation arrangements entered into in connection with a Change of Control.”

 

By signing this Agreement,
you, the Company, and Parent are each providing express written consent to the changes to Employment Letter Agreement and RSU Award
Agreement set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly modified herein, the Employment Letter Agreement and RSU Award Agreement
each remain in full force and effect, and are binding on you, the Company, and Parent in accordance with their terms. You acknowledge
and agree that this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you, the Company, and Parent with respect to the amendments
to your Employment Letter Agreement and RSU Award Agreement, and this Agreement supersedes all other agreements and understandings,
whether written or oral.
