(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken
by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing. If, but only if, Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities,
any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series may, alternatively, be embodied in and evidenced by the record of Holders
of Securities of such series voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Securities of such series duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article Fourteen, or a
combination of such instruments and any such record. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby
expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments and any such record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or
instruments and so voting at any such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Security, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to
Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company and any agent of the Trustee or the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Securities shall be
proved in the manner provided in Section 1406. 
 Without limiting the generality of this Section 104, unless
otherwise established in or pursuant to a Board Resolution or set forth or determined in an Officers’ Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, pursuant to Section 301, a Holder, including a U.S. Depository
that is a Holder of a global Security, may make, give or take, by a proxy, or proxies, duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or
taken by Holders, and a U.S. Depository that is a Holder of a global Security may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such global Security through such U.S. Depository’s standing instructions and customary
practices. 
 The Trustee shall fix a record date, which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such
Holders, for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interest in any permanent global Security held by a U.S. Depository entitled under the procedures of such U.S. Depository to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies
duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or
their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be 

  
 8 

 
entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the
Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine; and the Trustee may in any instance require further proof with respect to any of the matters referred to in this Section. 

(c) The ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Registered Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and
the date of termination of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (d) The ownership, principal amount
and serial numbers of Bearer Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and the date of termination of holding the same, may be proved by the production of such Bearer Securities or by a certificate executed, as depositary, by
any Bank, banker or other depositary reasonably acceptable to the Company, wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such Person had on deposit with such
depositary, or exhibited to it, the Bearer Securities therein described; or such facts may be proved by the certificate or affidavit of the Person holding such Bearer Securities, if such certificate or affidavit is deemed by the Trustee to be
satisfactory. The Trustee and the Company may assume that such ownership of any Bearer Security continues until (1) another certificate or affidavit bearing a later date issued in respect of the same Bearer Security is produced, or
(2) such Bearer Security is produced to the Trustee by some other Person, or (3) such Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security, or (4) such Bearer Security is no longer Outstanding. The principal amount and
serial numbers of Bearer Securities held by the Person so executing such instrument or writing and the date of the commencement and the date of termination of holding the same may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient. 
 (e) If the Company shall solicit from the Holders of any Registered Securities any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may at their option, by Board Resolutions, fix in advance a record date, which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such Holders, for the
determination of Holders of Registered Securities entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of Registered Securities of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders
for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that
purpose, the Outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided no such authorization, agreement or consent of the Holders of Registered Securities shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date. 
 (f) Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

	 	(1)	the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its
Corporate Trust Office, or 

  
 9 

	 	(2)	the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to the attention of its Treasurer at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this Indenture or at any other address previously furnished in writing to a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee by the Company. 

 Section 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver.

 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any Security, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of
any event,

Security affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such Notice; and 

 

	 	(2)	such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Bearer Securities, if any, if published in an Authorized Newspaper and, if such Securities are then listed on any
stock exchange outside the United States, in an Authorized Newspaper in such city as the Company shall advise the Trustee that such stock exchange so requires, on a Business Day at least twice, the first such publication to be not earlier than the
earliest date and not later than the latest date prescribed for the giving of such notice. 

 In any case where
notice to Holders of Registered Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Registered Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect
to other Holders of Registered Securities or the sufficiency of any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities given as provided herein. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given or
provided. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of publication of any
Authorized Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given
with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither failure to give notice by publication to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in any notice so
published, shall affect the sufficiency of any notice mailed to Holders of Registered Securities as provided above. 
 Where
this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by
Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 107. Language of Notices. 
 Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, election or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that, if the Company so elects, any published notice may be in an official language of the country of publication.

 Section 108. Conflict With Trust Indenture Act. 

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with the duties imposed pursuant to Section 318(c) of the Trust Indenture Act,
such imposed duties shall control.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or the last day on which a Holder has the
right to convert these Securities, is not a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, any Security or Coupon other than a provision in any Security or any Coupon that specifically states that
such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section) payment of interest or any Additional Amounts or principal (and premium, if any) or conversion of the Securities need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, or the last such day of conversion, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so
payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be. 

Section 115. Force Majeure.

Outstanding Securities of such series from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement
of any Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Holders, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall
be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered pursuant to Section 304 or 305 with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of Section 304 and, if applicable, Section 305, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any
Security in permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company Order. If a Company Order pursuant to Section 304 or 305 has been, or simultaneously is,
delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to a Security in global form shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel. 

The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form if such
Security was never issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 308, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, payment of principal
of and any premium and interest on any Security in permanent global form shall be made to the Person or Persons specified therein. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 310 and except as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company and the Trustee shall treat as the Holder of
such principal amount of Outstanding Securities represented by a permanent global Security (i) in the case of a permanent global Security in registered form, the Holder of such permanent global Security in registered form, or (ii) in the
case of a permanent global Security in bearer form, the Person or Persons specified pursuant to Section 301.

Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for the Securities evidenced thereby, every Security in global form authenticated and

PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED
BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN. 

PURSUANT TO A RECOMMENDATION PROMULGATED BY THE COMMITTEE ON UNIFORM SECURITY IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES, THE COMPANY HAS CAUSED CUSIP NUMBERS TO BE
PRINTED ON THE SECURITIES AND THE TRUSTEE MAY USE CUSIP NUMBERS IN NOTICES OF REDEMPTION OR REPURCHASE AS A CONVENIENCE TO HOLDERS. NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE ACCURACY OF SUCH NUMBERS EITHER AS PRINTED ON THE NOTES OR AS CONTAINED IN ANY

same currency, or (ii) any distribution to Holders of Securities, in the absence of any provision to the contrary in the form of Security of any particular series, any amount in respect of any Security denominated in a currency other than
United States dollars shall be treated for any such action or distribution as that amount of United States dollars that could be obtained for such amount on such reasonable basis of exchange and as of the record date with respect to Registered
Securities of such series (if any) for such action, determination of rights or distribution (or, if there shall be no applicable record date, such other date reasonably proximate to the date of such action, determination of rights or distribution)
as the Company may specify in a written notice to the Trustee or, in the absence of such written notice, as the Trustee may determine. 

  
 16 

 Section 304. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

The Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Deputy
Chairman, one of its Vice Chairmen, its President or one of its Senior Vice Presidents under its corporate seal reproduced thereon and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be manual or facsimile. 
 Securities and Coupons bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of
such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. 
 At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series, together with any Coupons appertaining thereto, executed by the Company, to the Trustee for authentication, and, provided that the Board Resolution or
Resolutions and Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities referred to in Section 301 and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, has been delivered to the
Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof of such Securities shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under
this Indenture in relation to such Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon,

  

	 	(1)	an Opinion of Counsel stating, to the effect 

  

	 	(A)	that the form or forms and terms of such Securities and Coupons, if any, have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture and

  

	 	(B)	that all conditions precedent to the authentication and delivery of such Securities and Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto, have been complied with and that such
Securities, and Coupons, when completed by appropriate insertion and executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to this Indenture, and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the
manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legally valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity
or at law) and will entitle the Holders thereof to the benefits of the Indenture; such Opinion of Counsel need express no opinion as to the availability of equitable remedies. 

 

	 	(2)	an Officers’ Certificate stating that, to the best knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities
shall have occurred and be continuing. 

 If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it
shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’ Certificate at the time of issuance of each Security, but such opinion and certificate, with appropriate modifications, shall be delivered at or before the time of
issuance of the first Security of such series. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or to cause an
Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is
not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal
liability to existing Holders. 

  
 17 

 Each Registered Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Each Bearer Security
and any temporary Bearer Security in global form shall be dated as of the date specified as contemplated by Section 301. 

No Security or Coupon shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 202 or 611 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon
any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Except as permitted by Section 307 or 308, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer
Security unless all appurtenant Coupons for interest then matured have been detached and cancelled. 
 Section 305.
Temporary Securities. 
 Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute and deliver
to the Trustee and, upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 304, temporary Securities of such series which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in
any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form or, if authorized, in bearer form with one or more Coupons or without Coupons and with such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series, such
temporary Securities may be in global form. 
 Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be
exchanged in accordance with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Securities of any series, the temporary Securities of such series, if any, shall be exchangeable upon request for definitive Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such
series at an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to any Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series (accompanied by any unmatured
Coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations of the same series containing identical terms
and provisions; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no definitive Bearer Security, except as provided pursuant to Section 301, shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that a definitive Bearer Security
shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security only in compliance with the conditions set forth herein or therein. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to a temporary global Security, until so
exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 Section 306. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. 
 With respect to the
Registered Securities of each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept, at an office or agency of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 1002, a register (each such register being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Registered Securities of each series and of transfers of the Registered Securities of such series. In the
event that the Trustee shall not be the Security Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times. CenterState Banks, Inc., Winter Haven, Florida is hereby initially appointed as Security Registrar for each
series of Securities. In the event that CenterState Banks, Inc. shall cease to be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, the Trustee shall have the right to examine the Security Register for such series at all reasonable times.

  
 18 

 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Registered Security of any series at any
office or agency of the Company maintained for such series pursuant to Section 1002, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered
Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions. 

At the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series
containing identical terms and provisions, in any authorized denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Registered Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

If specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities
of such series may be exchanged for Registered Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions, of any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any such
office or agency for such series, with all unmatured Coupons and all matured Coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons in
default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing Coupon or Coupons, or the surrender of such missing
Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such Security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender
to any Paying Agent any such missing Coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002,
interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency for such series located outside the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series
is surrendered at any such office or agency in exchange for a Registered Security of such series and like tenor after the close of business at such office or agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such
office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered
without the Coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be (or, if such Coupon is so surrendered with such Bearer Security, such Coupon shall be returned to the person so surrendering the Bearer
Security), and interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security,
but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 
 If
specified as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of such series may be exchanged for Bearer Securities upon such terms and conditions as may be provided
pursuant hereto with respect to such series. 
 Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange as contemplated by the
immediately preceding two paragraphs, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, any global Security of any series shall
be exchangeable for Securities of such series only if (i) the Securities Depository is at any time unwilling or unable or ineligible to continue as Securities Depository and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 90 days
of the date the Company is so notified in writing, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that such global Security shall be so exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing with respect to the Securities. If the beneficial owners of interests in a global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Securities of such series and of like tenor and principal amount of any authorized form and
denomination, as specified as contemplated by Section 301, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee definitive
Securities of that series in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be
surrendered from time to time by the U.S. Depository or such other depository as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto, 

  
 19 

 
and in accordance with instructions given to the Trustee and the U.S. Depository or such other depository, as the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing but need not comply with
Section 102 or be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for definitive
Securities of the same series without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such surrendered global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same
series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged which (unless the Securities of such series are not issuable both as Bearer Securities and as Registered Securities, in which case the
definitive Securities exchanged for the global Security shall be issuable only in the form in which the Securities are issuable, as specified as contemplated by Section 301) shall be in the form of Bearer Securities or Registered Securities, or
any combination thereof, as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of such series to be
redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date; and provided, further, that (unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301) no Bearer Security delivered in exchange for a portion of a global Security shall be mailed or
otherwise delivered to any location in the United States. Promptly following any such exchange in part, such global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to such Depository or the U.S. Depository, as the case may be, or such other Depository or
U.S. Depository referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where
such exchange occurs on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or
agency on the related proposed date for payment of interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered
Security, but will be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture. 
 All Securities endorsed thereon issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the
valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same debt, and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

Every Registered Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption or conversion shall (if so
required by the Company or the Security Registrar for such series of Security presented) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and such Security Registrar duly executed by the
Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer
or exchange, redemption or conversion of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities,
other than exchanges pursuant to Section 305, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer. 
 Except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for
redemption of Securities of such series under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security so selected for redemption in whole or in
part, except in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except, to the extent provided with respect to such Security, that such
a Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of that series, provided that such Registered Security shall be immediately surrendered for redemption with written instruction for payment consistent with the provisions of this Indenture
or (iv) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which, in accordance with its terms specified as contemplated by Section 301, has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any,
of such Security not to be repaid. 

  
 20 

 Section 307. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security or a Security with a mutilated Coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of this Section 307, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to the surrendered Security. 

If there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Security or Coupon, and (ii) such Security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security or Coupon has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for the Security to
which a destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains with all appurtenant Coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen, a new Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding, with Coupons corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Security or to the Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security or
Coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security or Coupon; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on
Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, be payable only at an office or agency located outside the United States and, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, any interest on Bearer
Securities shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the Coupons appertaining thereto. 
 Upon the issuance of
any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Security of any series, with its Coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Section in
lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its Coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon shall constitute a separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its Coupons, if any, or
the destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series and their Coupons, if any.

 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons. 
 Section 308.
Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, interest
on any Registered Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security of such series after the close of business (at an office or agency in a Place of Payment for such
series) on any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business (at such office or agency) on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date and
interest will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange of such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture. 

  
 21 

 Any interest on any Registered Security of any series which shall be payable, but shall not
be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Registered Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of
having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
  

	 	(1)	The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Registered Securities affected (or their respective Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted
Interest proposed to be paid on each such Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of
such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment. Money will be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in
this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10
days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company shall cause notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of such Registered Securities at his address as it appears in the Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special
Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Registered Securities (or their
respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). In case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at the office or
agency in a Place of Payment for such series in exchange for a Registered Security of such series after the close of business at such office or agency on any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on the
related proposed date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such proposed date of payment and Defaulted Interest will not be payable on such proposed date of payment in respect of
the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

 

	 	(2)	The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such
Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by any such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

 At the option of the Company, interest on Registered Securities of any series that bear interest may be paid by
mailing a check to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register. 
 Subject
to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 306, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and
unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 309. Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of a Registered Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or
the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Registered Security is registered as the owner of such Registered Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 306 and 308) interest
on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Registered Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Registered Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

  
 22 

 The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the bearer of
any Bearer Security and the bearer of any Coupon as the absolute owner of such Security or Coupon for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to
such Security or Coupon be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Section 310. Cancellation. 
 All Securities and Coupons surrendered for
payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee or the Security Registrar, be delivered to the Trustee or the Security Registrar, and
any such Securities and Coupons and Securities and Coupons surrendered directly to the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such purpose shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee or the Security Registrar, as the case may be. The Company may
at any time deliver to the Trustee or the Security Registrar for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be
promptly cancelled by the Trustee or the Security Registrar, as the case may be. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture
or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301. All cancelled Securities and Coupons held by the Trustee or the Security Registrar shall be returned to the Company by the Trustee or the Security Registrar, as the case may be, upon a
Company Order. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of all cancelled Securities. 
 Section 311. Computation of
Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the
Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 312. CUSIP
Numbers. 
 The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and if so,
the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; PROVIDED that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or
as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company
will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 
 ARTICLE FOUR 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

Securities of such series herein expressly provided for and any right to receive Additional Amounts, as provided in Section 1004), and the Trustee, on receipt of a Company Order, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series, when 

  
 23 

	 	(1)	either 

  

	 	(A)	all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered and all Coupons appertaining thereto (other than (i) Coupons appertaining to Bearer
Securities of such series surrendered for exchange for Registered Securities of such series and maturing after such exchange, whose surrender is not required or has been waived as provided in Section 306, (ii) Securities and Coupons of
such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 307, (iii) Coupons appertaining to Securities of such series called for redemption and maturing after the relevant Redemption

repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  

	 	(B)	all Securities of such series and, in the case of (i) or (ii) below, any such Coupons appertaining thereto not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation 

  

	 	(i)	have become due and payable, or 

  

	 	(ii)	will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year and such Securities are not convertible into other Securities, or 

 

	 	(iii)	if redeemable at the option of the Company, such Securities are not convertible into other Securities and are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 

 and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose, lawful money of the United States
Government Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal or other amounts in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide not later than the opening of business on the due dates of any payment of principal (and
premium, if any) and interest, or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or a combination thereof, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities and Coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date,
as the case may be; 
  

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

 

	 	(3)	the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with. 

 In the
event there are two or more Trustees hereunder, then the effectiveness of any such instrument shall be conditioned upon receipt of such instruments from all Trustees hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 606
and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive such
satisfaction and discharge. 

  
 24 

 Section 402. Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 or
this section 402 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities, the Coupons and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and any interest or any Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not
be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 All monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 401 (and held by it or any Paying Agent) for the payment of Securities subsequently converted shall be returned to the Company upon Company Request. 
 Section 403. Satisfaction, Discharge and Defeasance of Securities of Any Series. 
 If, pursuant to Section 301, provision is made for defeasance of Securities of any series pursuant to Section 403, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness
on all the Outstanding Securities of such series and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of such indebtedness, when

	 	(A)	with respect to all Outstanding Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto, 

 

	 	(i)	the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as trust funds in trust for such purpose, an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and premium, if any), any Additional Amounts, and interest to the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by the penultimate paragraph of this Section 403,
as the case may be; or 

  

	 	(ii)	with respect to any Series of Securities which are denominated in United States dollars, the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee, as
obligations in trust for such purpose, such amount of direct obligations of, or obligations the timely payment of the principal of and interest on which are fully guaranteed by, the United States of America and which are not callable at the option
of the issuer thereof as will, together with the income to accrue thereon without consideration of any reinvestment thereof, be sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of such series for principal (and
premium, if any), any Additional Amounts, and interest to the stated Maturity or any Redemption Date as contemplated by the penultimate paragraph of this Section 403; or 

 

	 	(B)	the Company has properly fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by Section 301, to be applicable to the
Securities of such series; and 

  

	 	(2)	the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series; and 

 

	 	(3)	 the Company has delivered to the Trustee a certificate signed by a nationally recognized firm of Independent Public Accountants certifying as to the
sufficiency of the amounts deposited pursuant to subsections (A) (i) or (ii) of this Section for payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the dates such payments are due, an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, 

  
 25 

	 	
each such Certificate and opinion stating that no Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall have
occurred and all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities of any such series have been complied with; and 

 

	 	(4)	the Company has delivered to the Trustee 

  

	 	(A)	a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of independent counsel that the holders of the Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times, as would have been the case if such deposit,
defeasance and discharge had not occurred. 

 Any deposits with the Trustee referred to in subsection
(1) (A) of this Section shall be irrevocable and shall be made under the terms of an escrow trust agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee. If any Outstanding Securities of such series are to be redeemed prior to their
Stated Maturity, whether pursuant to any optional redemption or repayment provisions or in accordance with any mandatory sinking fund requirement, the Company shall make such arrangements as are satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice
of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company. 
 Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in this Section 403 with respect to all the Outstanding Securities of any series, the terms and conditions of such series, including the terms and conditions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture, other than the provisions of
Sections 306, 307, and 1002, other than the right of Holders of Securities and any Coupons of such series to receive, from the trust fund described in this Section, payment of the principal (and premium, if any) of, the interest on or any Additional
Amounts with respect to such Securities and Coupons (if any) appertaining thereto when such payments are due, other than any right of conversion of such Securities and the rights, powers, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, shall no
longer be binding upon, or applicable to, the Company except those responsibilities and obligations which by the terms of the Indenture survive the termination of the Indenture; PROVIDED that the Company shall not be discharged from any payment
obligations in respect of Securities of such series which are deemed not to be Outstanding under clause (iii) of the definition thereof if such obligations continue to be valid obligations of the Company under applicable law. 

ARTICLE FIVE 
 REMEDIES 
 Section 501. Events of Default. 

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events
(whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or be effected by operation of law pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

  

	 	(1)	a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company or any Major Bank Subsidiary in an involuntary case under
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, and adjudging it a bankrupt or insolvent or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or
any Major Bank Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

  
 26 

	 	(2)	the Company or any Major Bank Subsidiary shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or
shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in any involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of
the Company or any Major Bank Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due or shall take any corporate action
in furtherance of any of the foregoing. 

 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series and any related Coupons by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most
effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal of all the Securities of that series, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of that series, to be due
and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal or such lesser amount shall become immediately due and payable. 

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or
decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company
and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
  

	 	(1)	the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 

 

	 	(A)	all overdue installments of interest on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of all Securities of such series, 

 

	 	(B)	the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon
at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, 

  

	 	(C)	to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or
provided for in such Securities, and 

  

	 	(D)	all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel as
provided in Section 606 hereof; and 

  

	 	(2)	all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 27 

 Section 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits For Enforcement By Trustee.

 The Company covenants that if 
  

	 	(1)	default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security when such interest or Additional Amounts
shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 

  

	 	(2)	default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at its Maturity, 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto, the
whole amount then due and payable on such Securities and Coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest or Additional Amounts, if any, with interest upon the overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest or any Additional Amounts, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover
the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so
due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 
 If an Event of Default
with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto by such
appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or such Securities or in aid of the exercise of any
power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the
Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
  

	 	(1)	to file and prove a claim for the whole amount or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of principal (and premium, if any) and
interest and any Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

 

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

  
 28 

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities or Coupons to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities or
Coupons, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 606. 

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder
of a Security or Coupon any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or Coupons or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a
Security or Coupon in any such proceeding. 
 Section 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities
or Coupons. 
 All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the Securities or coupons may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or Coupons or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an
express trust, and any recovery or judgment, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Security
and Coupon in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 
 Section 506. Application of Money Collected.

 Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates
fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the Securities or Coupons, or both, as the case may be, and the notation
thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
  

					
		 	FIRST:	  	To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 606;
			
		 	SECOND:	  	To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Securities and Coupons for principal (and premium, if any) and interest or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of
which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities and Coupons for principal (and premium, if any), interest or
any Additional Amounts, respectively;
			
		 	THIRD:	  	The balance, if any, to the Company.

 Section 507. Limitation on Suits. 

No Holder of any Security of any series or any related Coupons shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise,
with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
  

	 	(1)	such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series; 

 

	 	(2)	the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made a written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 

  

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

  
 29 

	 	(4)	the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

 

	 	(5)	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series; 

 it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any
right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other series, or to obtain or to seek
to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts. 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security or coupon shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 306 and 308) interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect of such Security or payment of such Coupon on the respective Stated Maturity or
Maturities specified in such Security or Coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

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

Section 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities or Coupons in the last paragraph of Section 307, no right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of a Security or Coupon is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to every
other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security or coupon to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities or Coupons may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities or Coupons, as the case may be.

 Section 512. Control By Holders. 

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto, PROVIDED that 

 

	 	(1)	such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 

 

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

 

	 	(3)	such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Securities of such series. 

Section 513. Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series and any Coupons appertaining
thereto waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default 
  

	 	(1)	in the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on or Additional Amounts payable in respect of any Security of such series or any Coupons
appertaining thereto, or 

  

	 	(2)	in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of
such series affected. 

 Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 514. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or
extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this 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 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 had been enacted. 

ARTICLE SIX 
 THE TRUSTEE

 Section 603. Not Responsible For Recitals or Issuance of Securities. 

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, and in any coupons shall be
taken as the statements of the Company and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities

Qualification on Form T-l supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the
proceeds thereof. 
 Section 604. May Hold Securities. 

The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other Person that may be an agent of the Trustee or
the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and Coupons and, subject to Sections 310(b) and 311 of the Trust Indenture Act, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other Person. 

Section 605. Money Held In Trust. 
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and shall be held uninvested. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest
on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. 
 Section 606. Compensation and
Reimbursement. 
 The Company agrees 
  

	 	(1)	to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Trustee in
writing (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

  

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

  

	 	(3)	to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee and its agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense
including taxes (other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or
trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder.

Securities of any series upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on Securities. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders
services after an Event of Default occurs, the expenses and compensation for the services of the Trustee are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

  
 33 

 The provisions of this Section 606 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and
the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Section 607. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility; Conflicting
Interests.

$50,000,000. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. If the Trustee has or shall
acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall take such action as is required pursuant to said Section 310(b). 

Section 608. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 

(a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective
until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee pursuant to Section 609. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any
time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 609 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series. 

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and the Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
removal, the Trustee being removed may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 

(d) If at any time: 
  

	 	(1)	the Trustee shall fail to comply with the obligations imposed upon it under Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act after written request therefor by the Company
or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or 

  

	 	(2)	the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 607 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder of a
Security, or 

  

	 	(3)	the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

 then, in any such case, (a) the Company, by or pursuant to Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (b) subject to Section 315(c) of the Trust Indenture
Act any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of any series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee
with respect to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 

  
 34 

 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy
shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to Board Resolutions, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that
or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 609. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its
acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 609, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the
Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 609, any Holder of a Security who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series. 
 (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect
to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Registered Securities, if any,
of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register and, if Securities of such series are issued as Bearer Securities, by publishing notice of such event once in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment located
outside the United States. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 609. Acceptance of Appointment By Successor. 
 (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the
retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company and/or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if
any, provided for in Section 606. 
 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor
Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be
deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that
nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered
by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates
have no further responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture other than as 

  
 35 

 
hereinafter expressly set forth, and each such successor Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such
successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee
relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and
eligible under this Article. 
 Section 610. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated,
but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor
Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 611. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Authenticating Agents, which may be an Affiliate of the Company, with respect to one or
more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued upon original issue or exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to
Section 307, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to
the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. 
 Each Authenticating Agent shall
be acceptable to the Company and, except as specified as contemplated by Section 301, shall at all times be a corporation that would be permitted by Section 310(a) (1) and (5) of the Trust Indenture Act to be able to act as a
trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, is authorized under applicable law and by its charter to act as such and that has a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with Section 310(a) (2) of the
Trust Indenture Act) of not less that $50,000,000. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in this Section. If the Authenticating Agent has or shall acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any series, the Authenticating Agent shall
take action as is required pursuant to said Section 310(b). 
 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part
of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 

  
 36 

 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall
(i) mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Registered Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in
the Security Register, and (ii) if Securities of the series are issued as Bearer Securities, publish notice of such appointment at least once in an Authorized Newspaper in the place where such successor Authenticating Agent has its principal
office if such office is located outside the United States. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Company agrees to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. 
 The provisions of Sections 309, 603 and 604 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate
of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 
 This is one of the Securities of the
series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

		 		 	By:	 	  

		 		 		 	Authorized Signatory

 If all of the Securities of any series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee does
not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested in writing
(which writing need not comply with Section 102) by the Company, shall appoint in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect to such series of Securities.

 The Trustee is hereby appointed as an Authenticating Agent. 
 Section 612 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver
all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Holders, such title to the trust
estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required
to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 608 hereof. 
 (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee
shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 
 (i) all
rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee
or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the trust estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such
separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee; 
 (ii) no separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder
shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and 
 (iii) the Trustee may at any
time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. 
 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given
to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the
conditions of this Section 612. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee. 
 (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the
Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

the Exchange Act. The Company also shall comply with the other provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to above to the Trustee and the

	 	(1)	change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon
or any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1004 (except as contemplated by Section 801(1)

Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; PROVIDED, that unless such consent
shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be
cancelled and of no further effect. 
 A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of
this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall
be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 It shall not be
necessary for any Act of Holders of Securities under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

Section 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. 
 As a condition to executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trust created by this Indenture, the

 41 

 
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that it complies with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee may,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of a Security theretofore or thereafter

pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so
modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such
series. 
 Section 907. Subordination Unimpaired. 

No supplemental indenture entered into under this Article Nine shall modify, directly or indirectly, the provisions of Article Fifteen or
the definition of Senior Indebtedness in Section 101 in any manner that might alter or impair the subordination of the Securities with respect to Senior Indebtedness then outstanding, unless each holder of such Senior Indebtedness has consented
thereto in writing. 
 ARTICLE TEN 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium, If Any,
and Interest. 
 The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of each series of Securities that it will
duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any), interest on or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such series of Securities, any Coupons appertaining thereto and
this Indenture. Any interest due on and any Additional Amounts payable in respect of Bearer Securities on or before Maturity, other than Additional Amounts, if any, payable as provided in Section 1004 in respect of principal of (or premium, if
any, on) such a Security, shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the several coupons for such interest installments as are evidenced thereby as they severally mature. 

Section 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an office or agency where Securities of such series (but not Bearer Securities, except as otherwise provided below, unless
such Place of Payment is located outside the United States) may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company
in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the Company shall maintain, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an

  
 42 

 
office or agency in a Place of Payment for such series which is located outside the United States where Securities of such series and the related Coupons may be presented and surrendered for
payment (including payment of any Additional Amounts payable on Securities of such series pursuant to Section 1004); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Securities of such series are listed on The Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and the
Republic of Ireland or the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company will maintain a Paying Agent in London, Luxembourg or any other required city
located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of such series are listed on such exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office
or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of that series and the related Coupons may be presented and surrendered for payment (including payment of any Additional Amounts payable on Bearer Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 1004) at the place specified for the purpose pursuant to Section 301, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, no payment of principal, premium or interest on Bearer Securities
shall be made at any office or agency of the Company in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the United States or by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in the United States; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, payment of
principal of and any premium and interest in U.S. dollars (including Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) on any Bearer Security may be made at the Corporate Trust Office or any office or agency designated by the Company if (but only if)
payment of the full amount of such principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts at all offices outside the United States maintained for the purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded by
exchange controls or other similar restrictions. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices
or agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner
relieve the Company of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of
any change in the location of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Pursuant
to Section 301(9) of this Indenture, the Company may subsequently appoint a place or places where such Securities may be payable. 
 Section 1003. Money For Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. 
 If
the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on, any of the Securities of that series, segregate and
hold in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will
promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for
any series of Securities, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any), or interest on, any Securities of that series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or
interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or
failure so to act. 
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee to execute
and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 

 

	 	(1)	hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

  
 43 

	 	(2)	give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of that series) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium,
if any) or interest on the Securities of that series; and 

  

	 	(3)	at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying
Agent. 

 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such
sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

Except as otherwise provided hereby or pursuant hereto, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest and Additional Amounts on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due
and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security or any Coupon appertaining thereto shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor,
look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or
such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment for such series or to be mailed to Holders of Registered
Securities for such series, or both, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing nor shall it be later than two years after such
principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 1004. Additional Amounts. 
 If any Securities of a series
provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company agrees to pay to the Holder of any such Security of any such series or any Coupon appertaining thereto Additional Amounts as provided therein. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned,
in any context, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or any related Coupon or the net proceeds received on the sale or exchange of any Security of any series, such mention
shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect
thereof pursuant to such terms and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not
made. 
 Except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto, if the Securities of a series provide for the Payment of
Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Interest Payment Date with respect to such series of Securities (or if the Securities of that series shall not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal
(and premium, if any, is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate,
the Company will furnish the Trustee and the principal Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal (and
premium, if any) of or interest on the Securities of that series shall be made to Holders of Securities of that series or the Coupons appertaining thereto who are United States Aliens without withholding for or on account of any tax, assessment or
other governmental charge described in the Securities of that series. If any such withholding shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, 

  
 44 

 
if any, required to be withheld on such payments to such Holders of Securities or Coupons and the Company agrees to pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by this
Section. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection
with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section. 

Section 1005. Statement As To Compliance; Notice of Certain Defaults. 

(a) The Company will, in addition to the reports required by Section 704(4), deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of
each fiscal year (which on the date hereof ends on December 31), commencing December 31, 20__, a written statement, which need not comply with Section 102, signed by the Chairman of the Board, a Deputy Chairman, Vice Chairman, the
President or a Senior Vice President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company, stating, as to each signer thereof, that 
  

	 	(1)	a review of the activities of the Company during such year and of performance under this Indenture has been made under his supervision, and 

 

	 	(2)	to the best of his knowledge, based on such review, (a) the Company has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there
has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to him and the nature and status thereof, and (b) no event has occurred and is continuing which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would
become, an Event of Default, or, if such an event has occurred and is continuing, specifying each such event known to him and the nature and status thereof. 

 (b) The Company will deliver to the Trustee as soon as possible, and in any event, within five days after the occurrence thereof, written notice of any event which after notice or lapse of time or both
would become an Event of Default. 
 Section 1006. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 

The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (1) all taxes,
assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary, and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid,
might by law become a lien upon the property of the Company or any subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount,
applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. 
 Section 1007. Corporate
Existence. 
 Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in
full force and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises and the corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of each Major Bank Subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be
required to preserve any such corporate existence, right or franchise if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as a whole and
that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 Section 1008. Waiver of Certain
Covenants. 
 The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in
Section 1006 with respect to the Securities of any series if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive
such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver
shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

  
 45 

 Section 1009. Calculation of Original Issue Discount. 

The Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year (i) a written notice specifying the amount of
original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding Securities as of the end of such year and (ii) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as may then be relevant under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 
 ARTICLE ELEVEN 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 Section 1101. Applicability of Article. 
 Redemption of Securities of
any series at the option of the Company as permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article. 

Section 1102. Election To Redeem; Notice To Trustee. 
 The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of the Securities of any series, with the same issue
date, interest rate and Stated Maturity, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the
principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. 
 Section 1103. Selection By Trustee of Securities To Be
Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of any series with the same issue date, interest rate, Stated Maturity and other
terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such
method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount of Registered Securities of such series; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such partial redemption shall reduce
the portion of the principal amount of a Registered Security of such series not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein pursuant hereto. 

If any Convertible Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect
to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed (so far as may be) to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed
shall be treated by the Trustee as Outstanding for the purpose of such selection. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall
relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 

  
 46 

 Section 1104. Notice of Redemption. 

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Registered Securities
designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or portion thereof. 

Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Registered Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have
been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 

 

	 	(1)	the Redemption Date, 

  

	 	(2)	the Redemption Price, 

  

	 	(3)	if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amount) of the
particular Securities to be redeemed, 

  

	 	(4)	in case any Registered Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon
surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Registered Security or Registered Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, 

 

	 	(5)	in the case of Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price then in effect, the date on which the right to convert the principal amount of the Securities or the
portions thereof to be redeemed will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion, 

  

	 	(6)	that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed only, as to Bearer Securities, against tender of
such Security and any Coupons appertaining thereto, and, if applicable, that interest thereon and Additional Amounts, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

 

	 	(7)	the place or places where such Securities, together, in the case of Bearer Securities with all Coupons appertaining thereto, if any, maturing after the Redemption Date,
are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, 

  

	 	(8)	that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if that is the case, and 

  

	 	(9)	the CUSIP number, if any. 

 A
notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 106 need not identify particular Registered Securities to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the
Company. 
 Section 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. 

On or prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its
own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on and any
Additional Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 

  
 47 

 If any Convertible Security or portion thereof called for redemption is converted pursuant
to Article Fifteen, any money deposited with the Trustee or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security or portion thereof shall (subject to any right of the Holder of the Security on a Regular Record Date preceding such
conversion to receive interest) be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be discharged from such trust. 
 Section 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. 
 Notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the
payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest and the Coupons for such interest appertaining to any Bearer Securities so to be redeemed, except to the extent provided below, shall be void. Upon
surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, together with all Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together
with accrued interest (or any Additional Amounts) to the Redemption Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that installments of interest on Bearer Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of coupons for such interest (at an office or agency located outside the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002), and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that installments of interest on Registered Securities whose Stated Maturity
is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of
Section 308. 
 If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant Coupons
maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security may be paid after deducting from the Redemption Price an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company
and the Trustee if there be furnished to them such Security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Security shall surrender to the Trustee or any Paying Agent any such
missing coupon in respect of which a deduction shall have been made from the Redemption Price, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount so deducted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that interest (or any Additional Amounts) represented by Coupons shall
be payable only upon presentation and surrender of those Coupons at an office or agency located outside of the United States except as otherwise provided in Section 1002. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate
prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. 

Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any office or agency of the Company maintained for
that purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Registered Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical
terms and provisions, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Security in global form is so
surrendered, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the U.S. Depository or other depository for such Security in global form as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee,
without service charge, a new Security in global form in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security in global form so surrendered.

 Section 1108. Conversion Arrangements on Call for Redemption. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, in connection with any redemption of Convertible Securities of any
series, the Company at its option, by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers, may arrange for such purchasers to purchase all such Convertible Securities called for redemption (the “Called Securities”) which
are either (i) surrendered for redemption or (ii) not duly surrendered for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, and to convert the same into shares of Common Stock, by the purchasers’
depositing with the Trustee (acting as Paying Agent with respect to the deposit of such amount and as conversion agent with respect to the conversion of such Called Securities), in trust for the Holders of the Called Securities, on or prior to the
Redemption Date in the manner agreed to by the Company and such purchasers, an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price, payable by the Company on redemption of such Called Securities. In connection with any such arrangement for purchase and
conversion, the Trustee as Paying Agent shall pay on or after the Redemption Date such amounts so deposited by the purchasers in exchange for Called Securities surrendered for redemption prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date and for
all Called Securities surrendered after such Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article Eleven, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Called Securities shall be satisfied and
discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers. However, nothing in this Section 1108 shall in any way relieve the Company of the obligation to pay such Redemption Price on all Called Securities to the extent such amount is
not so paid by said purchasers. For all purposes of this Indenture, any Called Securities surrendered by the Holders for redemption, and any Called Securities not duly surrendered for redemption or conversion prior to the close of business on the
Redemption Date, shall be deemed acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and surrendered by such purchasers for conversion and shall in all respects be deemed to have been converted, all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the
Redemption Date, subject to the deposit by the Purchasers of the above amount as aforesaid. Nothing in this Section 1108 shall in any way limit the right of any Holder of a Security to convert his Security pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture and of such Security at any time prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date applicable thereto. 

ARTICLE TWELVE 
 SINKING FUNDS 
 Section 1201. Applicability of Article.

 The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series,
except as otherwise permitted or required by any form of Security of such series issued pursuant to this Indenture. 
 The
minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of
Securities of such series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in
Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of Securities of such series. 
 Section 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments With Securities. 

The Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of such series to be made
pursuant to the terms of such Securities as provided for by the terms of such series (1) deliver Outstanding Securities of such series (other than any of such Securities previously called for redemption or any of such Securities in respect of
which cash shall have been released to the Company), together in the case of any Bearer Securities of such series with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto, and (2) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been redeemed
either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, PROVIDED that such series of Securities have
not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking
fund payment shall 

  
 49 

 
be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities of any series in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 1202, the principal amount of Securities of
such series to be redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such series for redemption, except upon a Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the
Trustee or a Paying Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the Company from time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so
being held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company.

 Section 1203. Redemption of Securities For Sinking Fund. 

Not less than 75 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion
thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 1202, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also
deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so credited and not theretofore delivered. If such Officers’ Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall
thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 60 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in
Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be
made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. 
 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 

REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS 
 Section 1301. Applicability of Article. 
 Securities of any series
which are repayable at the option of the Holders thereof before their Stated Maturity shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of the Securities of such series. The repayment of any principal amount of Securities pursuant to such option of the
Holder to require repayment of Securities before their Stated Maturity, for purposes of Section 310, shall not operate as a payment, redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the Company, at
its option, shall deliver or surrender the same to the Trustee with a directive that such Securities be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article Thirteen, in connection with any repayment of Securities, the
Company may arrange for the purchase of any Securities by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to the Holders of such Securities on or before the close of business on the
repayment date an amount not less than the repayment price payable by the Company on repayment of such Securities, and the obligation of the Company to pay the repayment price of such Securities shall be satisfied and discharged to the extent such
payment is so paid by such purchasers.

 ARTICLE FIFTEEN 

SUBORDINATION 
 Section 1501. Securities Subordinated To Senior Indebtedness. 
 The
Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and
any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness. 

Anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by the
Securities shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Senior Indebtedness: 
  

	 	(1)	In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement or other similar proceedings in connection
therewith, relative to the Company or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding-up of the Company, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then the holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal, premium and interest on all Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal, premium, if any, interest
or Additional Amounts upon the Securities, and to that end (but subject to the power of a court of competent jurisdiction to make other equitable provisions reflecting the rights conferred in the Securities upon Senior Indebtedness and the Holders
thereof with respect to the subordinated indebtedness represented by the Securities and the Holders hereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable bankruptcy law) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive for
application in payment thereof any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in any such proceedings in respect of the Securities after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution in respect of such Senior Indebtedness, except securities which are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding; 

 

	 	(2)	In the event that any Security of any series is declared or otherwise becomes due and payable before its expressed maturity because of the occurrence of an Event of
Default hereunder (under circumstances when the provisions of the foregoing clause (1) or the following clause (3) shall not be applicable), the holders of Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time such Security so becomes due and
payable because of such occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder shall, so long as such declaration has not been rescinded and annulled pursuant to Section 502, be entitled to receive payment in full of all principal of, and premium and
interest on, all such Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Securities of such series are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal of, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts on the Securities of such series.
However, nothing herein shall prevent the Holders of Securities from seeking any remedy allowed at law or at equity so long as any judgment or decree obtained thereby makes provision for enforcing this clause; and 

 

	 	(3)	In the event that any default shall occur and be continuing with respect to any Senior Indebtedness permitting the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to accelerate the
maturity thereof, if either 

  

	 	(A)	notice of such default, in writing or by telegram, shall have been given to the Company and to the Trustee, provided that judicial proceedings shall be commenced in
respect of such default within 180 days in the case of a default in payment of principal or interest and within 90 days in the case of any other default after the giving of such notice, and provided further that only one such notice shall be given
pursuant to this Section 1601(3) in any twelve months period, or 

  
 53 

	 	(B)	judicial proceedings shall be pending in respect of such default, the Holders of the Securities and the Trustee for their benefit shall not be entitled to receive any
payment on account of principal, premium, if any, or interest and Additional Amounts thereon (including any such payment which would cause such default) unless payment in full of all principal of, and premium and interest on, such Senior
Indebtedness shall have been made or provided for. The Trustee, forthwith upon receipt of any notice received by it pursuant to this Section 1601(3), shall, as soon as practicable, send a notice thereof to each Holder of Securities at the time
outstanding as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Security Register. 

 In case (despite the
foregoing provisions) any payment or distribution shall, in any such event, be paid or delivered to any Holder of the Securities or to the Trustee for their benefit before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, such payment or
distribution shall be held in trust for and so paid and delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (or their duly authorized representatives) until all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full. 

The Company shall give written notice to the Trustee within five days after the occurrence of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership,
liquidation, reorganization, arrangement or similar proceeding of the Company within the meaning of this Section 1601. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article Fifteen, the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of Section 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors or other
liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and
other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fifteen. 

The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a person representing himself to be a
holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of any such holder). In the event that the Trustee
determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 1601, the Trustee may request such
person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such person, as to the extent to which such person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other
facts pertinent to the rights of such person under this Section 1601, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such person pending judicial determination as to the right of such person to receive such payment.

 Section 1502. Subrogation. 
 Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness to which the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is in the circumstances subordinated as provided in Section 1501, the Holders of the
Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the
Securities shall be paid in full. As between the Company, its creditors other than holders of such Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, no such payment or distribution made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness by virtue of
this Article Fifteen which otherwise would have been made to the Holders of the Securities shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of such Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Article Fifteen are and
are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any), interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with their terms, or 

  

	 	(2)	is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, or

  

	 	(3)	prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the
rights, if any, under this Article Fifteen of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to
in this Article Fifteen, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which any such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceeding
affecting the affairs of the Company is pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any payment or distribution, delivered to the
Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company the amount thereof or
payable thereon, the amount paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article Fifteen. 

 Section 1504. Payment On Securities Permitted. 
 Nothing contained in
this Article Fifteen or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in any of the Securities, shall affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making payment of the principal of (or premium, if any), interest or any Additional
Amounts on the Securities in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof, except as otherwise provided in this Article Fifteen. 
 Section 1505. Effectuation Of Subordination by Trustee.

of Securities, by his or her acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee in his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in this Article Fifteen and appoints the Trustee
his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 Section 1506. Knowledge Of Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article Fifteen or any other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with
knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee, or the taking of any other action by the Trustee, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the
Company, any Holder of the Securities, any paying agent of the Company or the holder or representative of any class of Senior Indebtedness. 
 Section 1507. Trustee’s Relation To Senior Indebtedness. 
 Except
as otherwise provided in the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article Fifteen with respect to any Senior Indebtedness at the time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior
Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Securities of any series, nothing in this Article Fifteen shall apply to claims of or
payment to the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 506 and 606. 

  
 55 

 With respect to holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to
observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article Fifteen, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders, the Company or any other
Person monies or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article Fifteen or otherwise. 
 With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants or obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article Fifteen and no
implied covenants or obligations with respect to holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 
 Section 1508. Rights Of Holders Of Senior Indebtedness Not Impaired. 

No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any non-compliance by the Company with the terms, provisions or covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be
otherwise charged with. 
 ARTICLE SIXTEEN 
 CONVERSION 
 Section 1601. Conversion Privilege. 

Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article Sixteen and the terms of the Convertible Securities of the series
proposed to be converted, at the option of the Holder, any Convertible Security or any portion of the principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, may be converted into shares of Common Stock, as said shares shall be
constituted at the Date of Conversion, at the Conversion Price for such Convertible Securities of such series in effect at the Date of Conversion. 
 Section 1602. Manner of Exercise of Convertible Privilege. 
 In order
to exercise the conversion privilege, the Holder of any Convertible Security to be converted shall surrender such Convertible Security to the Company at its office or agency, together with the conversion notice in the form provided on the Securities
(or separate written notice) duly executed, and, if so required by the Company, accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company and to the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney in
writing. Any Registered Convertible Security so surrendered during the period from the close of business on the Regular Record Date preceding an Interest Payment Date for such Registered Convertible Security to the opening of business on such
Interest Payment Date shall (unless any such Registered Convertible Security or the portion thereof being converted shall have been called for redemption on a Redemption Date during such period, in which event no interest shall be payable with
respect to such Registered Convertible Security or portion thereof, as the case may be, following such Redemption Date) also be accompanied by payment in Clearing House funds or other funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the
interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of such Registered Convertible Security then being converted; provided, however, that no such payment need be made if there shall exist, at the time of conversion, a default in
the payment of interest on the Convertible Securities of such series. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustment shall be made for interest accrued on any Convertible Security that shall be converted or for dividends on
any shares of Common Stock that shall be delivered upon the conversion of such Convertible Securities. The funds so delivered to such office or agency shall be paid to the Company on or after such Interest Payment Date, unless the Company shall
default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which event such funds shall be repaid to the Person who delivered the same. As promptly as practicable after the surrender of any Convertible Security for conversion as
aforesaid, the Company shall deliver at said office or agency to such Holder, or on his written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares deliverable upon the conversion of such Convertible Security or portion thereof and a
check or cash in respect of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon such conversion, all as provided in this Article Sixteen, together with a Convertible Security or Convertible Securities of the same series in principal
amount equal to the unconverted and unredeemed portion, if any, of the Convertible Security so converted in accordance with 

  
 56 

 
Section 306 hereof. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date on which such notice shall have been received at said office or agency and such Convertible Security
shall have been surrendered as aforesaid, and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become on said date the Holder or
Holders of record of the shares represented thereby, provided, however, that any such surrender on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall constitute the Person or Persons in whose name or names the certificates
are to be delivered as the record Holder or Holders thereof for all purposes on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date of such surrender.

 Section 1603. Cash Adjustment Upon Conversion. 

The Company shall not be required to deliver fractions of shares of Common Stock upon conversions of Convertible Securities. If more than
one Convertible Security shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be deliverable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the
Securities so surrendered. If any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock would be deliverable upon the conversion of any Convertible Security or Securities, the Company shall make an adjustment therefor in cash equal to the current market
value of such fractional interest computed to the nearest cent either on the basis of the last reported sale price regular way of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (or, if not listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, then on such
other exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed as the Company may designate) on the last Business Day prior to the Date of Conversion or, if there shall not have been a sale on such last Business Day, on the basis of the average of
the bid and asked quotations therefor on such exchange on such last Business Day or, if the Common Stock shall not then be listed on any exchange, such other generally accepted source of publicly reported bid and asked quotations as the Company may
reasonably designate. 
 Section 1604. Conversion Price. 

The Conversion Price applicable to any series of Convertible Securities shall be the initial Conversion Price set forth on the
Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture establishing such series adjusted as provided in this Article Sixteen. 

Section 1605. Adjustment of Conversion Price. 
 The Conversion Price applicable to any series of Convertible Securities may be adjusted from time to time as set forth in such Securities. 

Section 1606. Effect of Reclassifications, Consolidations, Mergers or Sales on Conversion Privilege. 

In case of any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of the class of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible
Securities (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other
corporations (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities), or
in case of the merger of the Company into another corporation, or in case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder of Convertible Securities then
outstanding shall have the right to convert such Convertible Security into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock or other securities and property, including cash, receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Convertible Security might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. In any such case the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee one or more supplemental indentures (which shall conform to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as in force at the date of the execution of such
supplemental indenture) containing provisions to the effect set forth above in this Section 1606 and providing further for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the

  
 57 

 
adjustments provided for in this Article Sixteen; and any such adjustment which shall be approved by the Board of Directors and set forth in such supplemental indenture or supplemental indentures
shall be conclusive for all purposes of this Section, and the Trustee shall not be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provision contained in such supplemental indenture or supplemental indentures relating to either the kind
or amount of shares of stock or securities or property receivable by Holders of Securities of any series upon the conversion of their Convertible Securities after any such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.

 The above provisions of this Section 1606 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes,
consolidations, mergers, sales and conveyances. 
 Section 1607. Taxes on Conversions. 

The issue of stock certificates on conversions of Convertible Securities shall be made without charge to the converting Holder of
Convertible Securities for any tax in respect of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares in any name other than that
of the Holder of any Registered Convertible Security converted, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such stock certificate unless and until the Person or Persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company
the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. 

Section 1608. Company to Reserve Common Stock. 
 The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued shares or its issued shares held in its treasury, or both, for the purpose of effecting the
conversion of the Securities, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Securities. 

If any shares of Common Stock reserved or to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of Securities hereunder require registration with
or approval of any governmental authority under any Federal or State law before such shares may be validly delivered upon conversion, then the Company covenants that it will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure
registration or approval, as the case may be. 
 The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which may be delivered
upon conversion of Convertible Securities shall upon delivery be fully paid and nonassessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue or delivery thereof. 

Section 1609. Disclaimer by Trustee of Responsibility for Certain Matters. 

Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Convertible Securities
of any series to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Price for such series, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein
or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same, subject, however, to the provisions of Sections 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be accountable with
respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Convertible Security; and neither of them makes any
representation with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other
securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or, subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article Sixteen.

  
 58 

 Section 1610. Company to Give Notice of Certain Events. 

In the event: 
  

	 	(1)	that the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution to the holders of shares of Common Stock otherwise than in cash charged against consolidated net
earnings or retained earnings of the Company and its consolidated net earnings or retained earnings of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries or in Common Stock; or 

 

	 	(2)	that the Company shall offer for subscription or purchase, pro rata, to the holders of shares of Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock of any class; or 

  

	 	(3)	of any reclassification or change in outstanding shares of the class of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Securities (other than a change in par value,
or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or of any merger or consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation (other than a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities), or of any sale or conveyance to another
corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety; 

 then, and in any one or more of such
events, the Company will give to the Trustee and each conversion agent written notice thereof at least fifteen days prior to (i) the record date fixed with respect to any of the events specified in (1) and (2) above, and (ii) the
effective date of any of the events specified in (3) above; and shall mail promptly a copy of such notice to the Holders of Registered Convertible Securities at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Security Register. Failure to
give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such dividend, distribution, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. 

Section 1611. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 

 

	 	(a)	submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Indenture or any documents executed and delivered in connection herewith, or for
recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and appellate courts
from any thereof; 

  

	 	(b)	consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of such action or
proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

  

	 	(c)	agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other
jurisdiction; and 

  

	 	(d)	to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives all right of trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim based on, or arising out of, under or in
connection with this Indenture or any matter arising hereunder or thereunder.

that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be

 8

any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such
Holders remain Holders after such record date, provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series
on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously
set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of
the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the
applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.6. 
 With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the

corporation organized and existing under the laws of Florida (hereinafter called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay
to                     , or registered assigns, the principal sum of
                    Dollars on
                    ; provided that the Company may (i) shorten the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security to a date not earlier than
                    , and (ii) extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security at any time on one or more occasions, subject to
certain conditions specified in Section 3.14 of the Indenture, but in no event to a date later than                     . The

  
 11 

 
Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from                     or from
the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on the
                    day of                     ,
                    ,                     , and
                    of each year commencing
                    at the rate of     % per annum, until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, plus Additional
Interest, if any, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment and on any overdue principal and (without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any
overdue installment of interest at the rate of     % per annum, compounded quarterly. The amount of interest payable for any period shall be computed on the basis of twelve 30-day months and a 360-day year. The amount of interest
payable for any partial period shall be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Security is not a Business Day, then a payment of
the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year,
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable. A “Business Day” shall mean any day other than (i) a
Saturday or Sunday, (ii) a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed or (iii) a day on which the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or the principal

provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which shall be [insert Record Date]
next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest installment not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name
this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of
this series not less than                     days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right at any time during the term of this
Security to defer payment of interest on this Security, at any time or from time to time, for up to                     consecutive
                    interest payment periods with respect to each deferral period, but up to not less than 20 consecutive quarters (each an
“Extension Period”), (during which Extension Periods the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date, and at the end of which the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and
unpaid (together with Additional Interest thereon to the extent permitted by applicable law)); provided, however, that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security; provided, further, that
during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of
the Company’s capital stock (which includes common and preferred stock), or (ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt security of the Company (including Securities
issued by the Company pursuant to the Indenture other than the Securities represented by this certificate) that ranks pari passu with or junior in interest to this Security or make any guarantee payments with respect to any guarantee by the
Company of the debt securities of any Subsidiaries of the Company (including CenterState Guarantees other than the Guarantee related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by [NAME OF THE TRUST]) if such guarantee ranks pari passu with or
junior in interest to this Security (other than (a) dividends or distributions in Common Stock of the Company, (b) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of
stock under any such plan in the future or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments under the CenterState Guarantee related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by [NAME OF THE TRUST], and
(d) purchases of Common Stock related to the issuance of Common Stock or rights under any of the Company’s benefit plans for its directors, officers or employees). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may
further extend such Extension Period, provided that such extension does not cause such Extension Period to exceed                     consecutive
interest payment periods or to extend beyond the Stated Maturity. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all amounts then due, and subject to the foregoing limitation, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension
Period. No interest shall be due 

  
 12 

 
and payable during an Extension Period except at the end thereof. The Company shall give the Trustee, the Property Trustee and the Administrators of [NAME OF THE TRUST] notice of its election to
begin any Extension Period at least                     Business Days prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which Distributions on the Trust
Capital Securities would be payable except for the election to begin such Extension Period, or (ii) the date the Administrators are required to give notice to any automated quotation system or to holders of such Trust Capital Securities of the
record date or the date such Distributions are payable, but in any event not less than                     Business Days prior to such record date.

 Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for that purpose in the United States, 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; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of interest may be made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Securities Register or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds at such place and to
such account as may be designated by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Securities Register. The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, unsecured and will rank junior and subordinate and
subject in right of payments to the prior payment in full of all Senior and Subordinated Debt, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same,
(a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee
his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior and Subordinated
Debt, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions. 
 Reference
is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual or facsimile
signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed under its corporate seal.

series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), provided that, in the case of the Securities of this series issued to a CenterState Trust, if upon an Event of Default, the
Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series fails to declare the 

  
 14

such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on this Security shall terminate.]

Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the
Securities Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company maintained under Section 10.2 of the Indenture duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form

principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other

 (o) if applicable, that any Securities of the series shall be issuable in whole or in
part in the form of one or more Global Securities and, in such case, the respective Depositaries for such Global Securities, the form of any legend or legends which shall be borne by any such Global Security in addition to or in lieu of that set
forth in Section 2.4 and any circumstances in addition to or in lieu of those set forth in Section 3.5 in which any such Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and any transfer of such Global
Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name or names of Persons other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof; 
 (p) the appointment of any Paying Agent or Agents for the Securities of such series; 
 (q) the terms of any right to convert or exchange Securities of such series into any other securities or property of the Company, and the additions or changes, if any, to this Indenture with respect to
the Securities of such series to permit or facilitate such conversion or exchange; 
 (r) the form or forms of the Trust
Agreement, Amended and Restated Trust Agreement and Guarantee Agreement, if different from the forms attached hereto as Annexes A, B and C, respectively; 
 (s) the relative degree, if any, to which the Securities of the series shall be senior to or be subordinated to other series of Securities in right of payment, whether such other series of Securities are
Outstanding or not; and 
 (t) any other terms of the Securities of such series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the
provisions of this Indenture). 
 All Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination
and except as may otherwise be provided herein or in or pursuant to such Board Resolution and set forth in such Officers’ Certificate or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. 

  
 17 

 If any of the terms of the series are established by action taken pursuant to a Board
Resolution, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the
terms of the series. 
 The Securities shall be subordinated in right of payment to Senior and Subordinated Debt as provided in
Article XIII. 
 Section 3.2. Denominations. 
 The Securities of each series shall be in registered form without coupons and shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.1. 
 Section 3.3. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its President or one of its Senior Vice Presidents under its corporate seal
reproduced or impressed thereon and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication,
together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been
established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall
be provided with, and (subject to Section 6.2) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, 

(1) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such
form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) if the terms of such Securities have been
established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 3.1, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and 
 (3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid
and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 
 If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall
not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1 and of the preceding paragraph, if
all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.1 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise
required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be
issued. 
 Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

  
 18 

 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any
Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never
issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.9, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 3.4. Temporary Securities. 

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities of such series in lieu of which they are
issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. 

If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of such series to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for that
purpose without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the
same series of authorized denominations having the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity and having the same terms as such temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to
the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 Section 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange.

 The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. Such register is herein sometimes referred to as the “Securities Register.” The Trustee is hereby
appointed “Securities Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, of the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity and having the same
terms. 
 At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized
denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, of the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity and having the same terms, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any securities are so surrendered
for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the
Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. 
 Every Security presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall
(if so required by the Company or the Securities Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing. 

  
 19 

 No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities. 

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities. 
 The provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) below shall apply only to Global Securities: 
 (1) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a
nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. 
 (2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may
be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary (i) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such
Global Security or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as depositary, in each case unless the Company has approved a successor Depositary
within 90 days, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security, (C) the Company in its sole discretion determines that such Global Security will be so exchangeable or transferable
or (D) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 3.1. 

(3) Subject to Clause (2) above, any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities may be made in whole or in part, and all
Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct. 
 (4) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section,
Section 3.4, 3.6, 9.6 or 11.6 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a
nominee thereof. 
 Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required, pursuant to the provisions of this Section,
(a) to issue, transfer or exchange any Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of selection for redemption of Securities pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on
the day of mailing of notice of redemption or (b) to transfer or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

 Section 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or the
Trustee to save each of them harmless, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same issue and series of like tenor and principal amount, having the same Original Issue Date
and Stated Maturity, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered to the Company and
to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired 

  
 20 

 
by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the
same issue and series of like tenor and principal amount, having the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity as such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its
discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this
Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

 Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall preclude
(to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.7. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 

Interest on any Security of any series which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, shall
be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest in respect of Securities of such series, except that, unless otherwise
provided in the Securities of such series, interest payable on the Stated Maturity of the principal of a Security shall be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid. The initial payment of interest on any Security of any series which is issued
between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such Security or in the Board Resolution pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to the related series of Securities. 

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not timely paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities
of such series (herein called “Defaulted Interest”), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by
the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: 
 (1) The Company may elect to
make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series in respect of which interest is in default (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed
payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such
deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date
for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first
class, postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Security of such series at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and
at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in a newspaper, customarily published in the English language on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan (an “Authorized
Newspaper”), The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor
having been mailed as 

  
 21 

 
aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 
 (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted
Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of the series in respect of which interest is in default may be listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such
exchange (or by the Trustee if the Securities are not listed), if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.7, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 3.8. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 The Company, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to Section 3.7) any interest on such Security and
for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 3.9. Cancellation. 
 All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and Securities
surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have
acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall be disposed of by the Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver to the Company upon its request therefor a certificate of such disposal. 
 Section 3.10. Computation of Interest. 
 Except as otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 3.1 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and interest on the Securities of each series for any
partial period shall be computed on the basis of the number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 3.11.
Deferrals of Interest Payment Dates. 
 If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect
to the Securities of a particular series, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, at any time during the term of such series, from time to time to defer the payment of interest on such
Securities for such period or periods as may be specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, but up to not less than 20 consecutive quarters or five consecutive years (each, an “Extension Period”) during which Extension Periods
the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date. No Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. At the end of any such Extension Period the Company shall pay all
interest then accrued and unpaid on the Securities (together with Additional Interest thereon, if any, at the rate specified for the Securities of such series to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided, however, that no Extension
Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series; provided, further, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, (i) declare or pay any
dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock (which includes common and preferred stock), or (ii) make any payment of principal

  
 22 

 
of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company (including Securities other than the Securities of such series) that ranks pari
passu with or junior in interest to the Securities of such series or make any guarantee payments with respect to any guarantee by the Company of the debt securities of any Subsidiary of the Company (including CenterState Guarantees other than
the CenterState Guarantee related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by the CenterState Trust holding Securities of such series) if such guarantee rank pari passu with or junior in interest to the securities of such series (other than
(a) dividends or distributions in Common Stock of the Company, (b) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of stock under any such plan in the future or the
redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto, (c) payments under the CenterState Guarantee related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by the CenterState Capital Trust holding Securities of such series, and (d) purchases
of Common Stock related to the issuance of Common Stock or rights under any of the Company’s benefit plans for its directors, officers or employees). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further extend such
Extension Period, provided that such extension does not cause such Extension Period to extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of such Securities. Upon termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid
interest and any Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. No interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end
thereof. The Company shall give the Trustee, the Property Trustee and the Administrators of the CenterState Trust holding Securities of such series notice of its election of any Extension Period (or an extension thereof) at least five Business Days
prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Trust Capital Securities of such CenterState Trust would be payable except for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period or (ii) the date the
Administrators of such CenterState Trust are required to give notice to any automated quotation system or to holders of such Trust Capital Securities of the record date or the date such Distributions are payable, but in any event not less than five
Business Days prior to such record date. 
 The Trustee shall promptly give notice of the Company’s election to begin any
such Extension Period to the Holders of the Outstanding Securities of such series. 
 Section 3.12. Right of Set-Off. 

[RESERVED] 
 Section 3.13.
Agreed Tax Treatment. 
 Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and, by its acceptance of a
Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, such Security agree that for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes it is intended that such Security constitute
indebtedness. 
 Section 3.14. Shortening or Extension of Stated Maturity. 

If specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1 with respect to the Securities of a particular series, the Company
shall have the right to (i) shorten the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series at any time to any date not earlier than the first date on which the Company has the right to redeem the Securities of such series, and
(ii) extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series at any time at its election for one or more periods, but in no event to a date later than the 49th anniversary of the first Interest Payment Date following the
Original Issue Date of the Securities of such series; provided that, if the Company elects to exercise its right to extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities of such series pursuant to clause (ii) above, at the time such
election is made and at the time of extension (A) the Company is not in bankruptcy, otherwise insolvent or in liquidation, (B) the Company is not in default in the payment of any interest or principal on such Securities, (C) in the
case of any series of Securities issued to a CenterState Trust, such CenterState Trust is not in arrears on payments of Distributions on the Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust and no deferred Distributions are accumulated and
(D) such Securities are rated not less than BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody’s or the equivalent by any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization. In the event the Company elects to shorten or extend the Stated Maturity
of the Securities of any series, it shall give notice to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall give notice of such shortening or extension to the Holders thereof no less than 30 and no more than 60 days prior to the effectiveness thereof. 

  
 23 

 Section 3.15. CUSIP Numbers. 

The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use
“CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any
notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. 

ARTICLE IV

Section 4.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. 
 This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for and as
otherwise provided in this Section 4.1) and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when

the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.11 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under
Section 4.2 and the last paragraph of Section 10.3 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 

  
 24 

 Section 4.2. Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.3, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1
shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the
Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for the payment of which such money or obligations have been deposited with or received by the Trustee. 

ARTICLE V 

REMEDIES 
 Section 5.1.
Events of Default. 
 “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to the Securities of any
series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order,
rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 
 (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security
of that series, including any Additional Interest in respect thereof, when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days (subject to the deferral of any due date in the case of an Extension Period) or, if later,
the conclusion of a period consisting 20 or more consecutive quarters, commencing with the quarter following the earliest quarter for which interest (including interest payments deferred pursuant to Section 3.11) has not been paid in full; or

 (2) the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in an
involuntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or 

(3) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case under the Federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or the
consent by the Company to the entry of a decree or order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law; or 
 (4) the
related CenterState Trust shall have voluntarily or involuntarily dissolved, wound-up its business or otherwise terminated its existence, except in connection with (i) the distribution of Securities to holders of the Trust Capital Securities,
(ii) the redemption of Securities and the related series of Trust Capital Securities or (iii) a consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease permitted by Section 8.1 of this Indenture; or 

(5) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series. 

Section 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount (or, if the Securities of that series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of all the
Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), provided that, in the case of the Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, if, upon an Event of
Default, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series fail to declare the principal of all the Securities of that series to be immediately due and payable, the holders of at least
25% in aggregate liquidation amount of the corresponding series of Trust Capital Securities then outstanding shall have such right by a notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee; and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or
specified portion thereof) of and the accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) on all the Securities of such series shall become immediately due and payable. Payment of principal and interest (including any Additional Interest) on such
Securities shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article XIII notwithstanding that such amount shall become immediately due and payable as herein provided. 

  
 25 

 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any
series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as provided hereinafter in this Article, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series,
by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (1) the
Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 
 (A) all overdue installments of
interest (including any Additional Interest) on all Securities of that series, 
 (B) the principal of (and
premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the Securities, and 

(C) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
 (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series,
other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

In the case of Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as
defined in the Trust Agreement under which such CenterState Trust is formed) of the related series of Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust shall also have the right to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences by
written notice to the Company and the Trustee subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Clauses (1) and (2) above of this Section 5.2. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

The Company covenants that if: 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of
30 days, or 
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity
thereof, 
 the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole
amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal, including any sinking fund payment or analogous obligations (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest); and, in addition thereto, all amounts owing the Trustee
under Section 6.6. 
 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and
as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor
upon the Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated. 

  
 26 

 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such
rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company or
of such other obligor or their creditors, 
 (a) the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities of any
series shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal (and premium, if any) or interest
(including any Additional Interest)) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) owing and unpaid in respect to the Securities and to file such other
papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable and to take any and all actions as are authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have the claims of the Holders and any predecessor to the Trustee under Section 6.6 allowed in any
such judicial proceedings; and 
 (ii) in particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any
moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same in accordance with Section 5.6; and 
 (b) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the
Trustee for distribution in accordance with Section 5.6, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 6.6. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee. 

Section 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claim Without Possession of Securities. 

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.6, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered. 
 Section 5.6. Application of Money Collected. 
 Any money or property collected or to be applied by the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the
Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest), upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only
partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any
predecessor Trustee under Section 6.6; 

  
 27 

 SECOND: Subject to Article XIII, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon such
series of Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest), in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according
to the amounts due and payable on such series of Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest), respectively; and 
 THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company. 
 Section 5.7. Limitation on Suits.

 No Holder of any Securities of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with
respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of
that series; 
 (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have
made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
 (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding;
and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more
of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Securities, or to obtain or to seek to obtain
priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 5.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest; Direct Action by Holders of Trust Capital Securities.

 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right which is absolute and
unconditional to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.7) interest (including any Additional Interest) on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the
case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. In the case of Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust,
any holder of the corresponding series of Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(1), to institute a suit directly against the Company
for enforcement of payment to such holder of principal of (premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.7) interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities having a principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount (as
defined in the Trust Agreement under which such CenterState Trust is formed) of such Trust Capital Securities of the corresponding series held by such holder. 

  
 28 

 Section 5.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Trust Capital Securities has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under
this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee, such Holder or such holder of Trust Capital Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, the
Holders and such holder of Trust Capital Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee, the
Holders and the holders of Trust Capital Securities shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 5.10.
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 
 Except as otherwise provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.6, no right or
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right
and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate
right or remedy. 
 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. 

No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Security or any holder of any Capital Security to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. 
 Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders and the right and remedy given to the holders of Trust Capital Securities by Section 5.8 may be exercised from
time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Trust Capital Securities, as the case may be.

 The Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee,
with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of
law or with this Indenture, 
 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent
with such direction, and 
 (3) subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee shall, in good faith, determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not joining in any such direction or would involve the Trustee in
personal liability. 
 Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series and, in the case of any
Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, the holders of Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences with respect to such series except a default: 

(1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security of such
series, or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article IX cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 

  
 29 

 Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such
series or, in the case of a waiver by holders of Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust, by all holders of Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust. 

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured,
for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement
of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may
in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the
provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, or
to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security.

 Section 5.15. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay
or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this 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 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 had been enacted.

time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.9 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to such series.

cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that
any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the

Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. If Securities of such series are issued
as Bearer Securities, the Company shall publish notice of such event once in an Authorized Newspaper. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust
Office.

shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee. On the request of the Company and/or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 6.6.

deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which

deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in

necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee.

supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee
and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder, and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal
of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates have no further
responsibility for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture other than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and each such successor Trustee without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of
the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder

 shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such
authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 
 Section 6.11. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. 
 The Trustee may
appoint an Authenticating Agent or Authenticating Agents, which may be an Affiliate of the Company, with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or
those series issued upon original issue or exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption or pursuant to Section 3.6. Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory
for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. 

Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and, except as specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, shall at all
times 
 (1) be a corporation that would be permitted by Section 310(a)(1) and (5) of the Trust Indenture Act to be
able to act as a trustee under an indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, 
 (2) be authorized under applicable law
and by its charter to act as such, and 
 (3) have a combined capital and surplus (computed in accordance with
Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act) of not less that $50,000,000. 
 If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. If the Authenticating Agent has or shall acquire any conflicting
interest, as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any series, the Authenticating Agent shall take such action as is required pursuant to said Section 310(b). 

  
 35 

 Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent, 
 (a) any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or 
 (b) any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such
Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or 
 (c) any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business
of an Authenticating Agent, 
 shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this
Section. 
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The
Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time
such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company. At such time, the Trustee shall also

 (i) mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series
with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Securities Register, and 

(ii) if Securities of the series are issued as bearer securities, publish notice of such appointment at least once in an Authorized
Newspaper. 
 Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers
and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 

The Company agrees to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. If the
Trustee makes such payments, it shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 6.6. 
 The provisions of Sections 3.8, 6.3 and 6.4 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate
of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 
 This is one of the Securities of the
series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. 
 Dated:

 If all of the Securities of any series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the
Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested
in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 102) by the Company, shall appoint in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect to such series of
Securities. 
 The Trustee is hereby appointed as an Authenticating Agent. 

Section 6.12 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee. 

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any
jurisdiction, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such
capacity and for the benefit of the Holders, such title to the trust estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.8 hereof. 
 (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 

(i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any
law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title
to the trust estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee; 

(ii) no separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee
hereunder; and 
 (iii) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate
trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Section 6.12. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this
Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee. 

(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its
estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 7.1 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

other provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 314(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to above to the Trustee and the Holders if the Company has filed such reports with the
Commission via the Interactive Data Electronic Applications filing system and such reports are publicly available. 
 Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information

ARTICLE VIII 

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE 
 Section 8.1. Company May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms. 

The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets

(1) in case the Company shall consolidate with or merge into another Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any Person, the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, the properties and assets of the Company

 (2) immediately after giving effect
to such transaction, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and be continuing; 
 (3) in the case of the Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease is permitted under the related Trust Agreement and related
CenterState Guarantee and does not give rise to any breach or violation of the related Trust Agreement or related CenterState Guarantee; and 
 (4) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such supplemental
indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with; and the Trustee, subject to Section 6.2, may rely upon such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of
Counsel as conclusive evidence that such transaction complies with this Section 8.1. 

  
 38 

 Section 8.2. Successor Corporation Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or merger by the Company with or into any other Person, or any conveyance, transfer or lease by the Company of its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person in accordance with Section 8.1, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made
shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein; and in the event of any such conveyance,
transfer or lease the Company shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under the Indenture and the Securities and may be dissolved and liquidated.

deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to such provisions and any Securities which such successor Person thereafter shall cause to be
signed and delivered to the Trustee on its behalf for the purpose pursuant to such provisions. All the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter
issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or lease, such changes in phraseology and form may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

 ARTICLE X 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 10.1. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. 

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms of such Securities and this Indenture. 

Section 10.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
 The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities, an office or agency where Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment and an office or agency
where Securities of that series may be surrendered for transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served. The Company initially appoints the
Trustee, acting through its Corporate Trust Office, as its agent for said purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to
maintain such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the
Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from time to
time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all of such purposes, and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or
rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation and any change in the location of any such office or agency. 
 Section 10.3. Money for Security Payments to be Held in
Trust. 
 If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on
or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if
any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act. 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents, it will, prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on each due date of the
principal of or interest on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal
and premium (if any) or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act. 
 The Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
this Section 10.3, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and
premium, if any) or interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of
principal (and premium, if any) or interest; 

  
 42 

 (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the
Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; and 
 (4) comply with the provisions of
the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the
same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall (unless otherwise required by mandatory provision of
applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law) be paid on Company Request to the Company, or (if then held by the Company) shall (unless otherwise required by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property
law) be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be
published once, in an Authorized Newspaper, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
will be repaid to the Company. 
 Section 10.4. Statement as to Compliance. 

The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each calendar year of the Company ending after the date
hereof, an Officers’ Certificate covering the preceding calendar year, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of or compliance with any of the
terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture, and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. For the purpose of this Section 10.4,
compliance shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 

Section 10.5. Waiver of Certain Covenants. 
 The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition provided pursuant to Sections 3.1, 9.1(3), or 9.1(4) with respect to the Securities of any series, if before or
after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with
such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company in respect of any such
covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
 Section 10.6. Additional Sums. 

In the case of the Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.1 or Section 3.1, in the event that (i) such CenterState Trust is the Holder of all of the Outstanding Securities of such series, (ii) a Tax Event in respect of such
CenterState Trust shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) the Company shall not have (A) redeemed the Securities of such series pursuant to Section 11.7(b) or (B) terminated such CenterState Trust pursuant to
Section 9.2(b) of the related Trust Agreement, the Company shall pay to such CenterState Trust (and its permitted successors or assigns under the related Trust Agreement) for so long as such CenterState Trust (or its permitted successor or
assignee) is the registered holder of any Securities of such series, such additional amounts as may be 

  
 43 

 
necessary in order that the amount of Distributions (including any Additional Amounts (as defined in such Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by such CenterState Trust on the related Trust
Capital Securities and Trust Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result of any Additional Taxes (the “Additional Sums”). Whenever in this Indenture or
the Securities there is a reference in any context to the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payments of the Additional Sums provided for in this paragraph to the extent
that, in such context, Additional Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph and express mention of the payment of Additional Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be
construed as excluding Additional Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made; provided, however, that the deferral of the payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.11 or the Securities shall not defer the
payment of any Additional Sums that may be due and payable. 
 Section 10.7. Additional Covenants. 

The Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities of any series that it shall not, and it shall not permit any Subsidiary
of the Company to, (a) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s capital stock (which includes common and preferred stock), or
(b) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company (including Securities other than the Securities of such series) that rank pari passu with or junior
in interest to the Securities of such series or make any guarantee payments with respect to any guarantee by the Company of debt securities of any subsidiary of the Company (including CenterState Guarantees other than the CenterState Guarantee
related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by the CenterState Trust holding Securities of such series) if such guarantee ranks pari passu with or junior in interest to the Securities (other than (a) dividends or distributions in
Common Stock of the Company, (b) any declaration of a dividend in connection with the implementation of a rights plan or the issuance of stock under any such plan or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto,
(c) payments under the CenterState Guarantee related to the Trust Capital Securities issued by the CenterState Trust holding Securities of such series, and (d) purchases of Common Stock related to the issuance of Common Stock or rights
under any of the Company’s benefit plans for its directors, officers or employees) if at such time (i) there shall have occurred any event of which the Company has actual knowledge that (A) with the giving of notice or the lapse of
time or both, would constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series and (B) in respect of which the Company shall not have taken reasonable steps to cure, (ii) if the Securities of such series are held by a
CenterState Trust, the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the CenterState Guarantee relating to the Trust Capital Securities issued by such CenterState Trust or (iii) the Company shall have given
notice of its election to begin an Extension Period with respect to the Securities of such series as provided herein and shall not have rescinded such notice, or such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing. 

The Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust (i) to maintain directly or
indirectly 100% ownership of the Trust Common Securities of such CenterState Trust; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company’s ownership of such Trust Common Securities,
(ii) not to voluntarily terminate, wind-up or liquidate such CenterState Trust, except (a) in connection with a distribution of the Securities of such series to the holders of Trust Securities in liquidation of such CenterState Trust or
(b) in connection with certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the related Trust Agreement and (iii) to use its reasonable efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of such Trust Agreement, to cause such
CenterState Trust to remain classified as a grantor trust and not an association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 11.1. Applicability of This Article. 
 Redemption of Securities of any series (whether by operation of a sinking fund or otherwise) as permitted or required by any form of Security issued pursuant to this Indenture shall be made in accordance
with such form of Security and this Article; provided, however, that if any provision of any such form of Security shall conflict with 

  
 44 

 
any provision of this Article, the provision of such form of Security shall govern. Except as otherwise set forth in the form of Security for such series, each Security of such series shall be
subject to partial redemption only in the amount of $100,000 or, in the case of the Securities of a series issued to a CenterState Trust, $100,000, or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

Section 11.2. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. 
 The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all of the Securities of
any particular series and having the same terms, the Company shall, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such date and of the
principal amount of Securities of that series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities, the Company shall furnish the Trustee
with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
 Section 11.3. Selection of
Securities to be Redeemed. 
 If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities of
such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the
Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of
such series, provided that the portion of the principal amount of any Security not redeemed shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities
of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from
the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for partial redemption and the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the
context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be
redeemed. If the Company shall so direct, Securities registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Securities selected for redemption. 

Section 11.4. Notice of Redemption. 
 Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than the thirtieth day, and not earlier than the sixtieth day, prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register. 
 With respect to Securities
of each series to be redeemed, each notice of redemption shall state: 
 (a) the Redemption Date; 

(b) the Redemption Price; 
 (c) if less than all Outstanding Securities of such particular series and having the same terms are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal
amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed; 
 (d) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due
and payable upon each such Security or portion thereof, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date; 

  
 45 

 (e) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price; and 
 (f) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. 

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s
request (upon it giving 5 Business Days advance notice to the Trustee), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall not be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the
validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security. 
 Section 11.5. Deposit of Redemption Price. 

Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in
Section 11.4, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest (including Additional Interest) on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.6. Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. 
 If any
notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 11.4, the Securities or portion of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice
at the applicable Redemption Price. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place of Payment in said notice specified, the said securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable
Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1, installments of interest whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the
provisions of Section 3.7. 
 Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the same series, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the portion of the Security not
redeemed so presented and having the same Original Issue Date, Stated Maturity and terms. If a Global Security is so surrendered, such new Security will also be a new Global Security. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal of and premium, if any,
on such Security shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

Section 11.7. Right of Redemption of Securities Initially Issued to a CenterState Trust. 

In the case of the Securities of a series initially issued to a CenterState Trust, except as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1, the Company, at its option, may redeem such Securities (i) on or after the date five years after the Original Issue Date of such Securities, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, or (ii) upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of a Tax Event, at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of such Tax Event in respect of such CenterState Trust, in whole (but not in part), in each case at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal
amount thereof.

 ARTICLE XII 
 SINKING FUNDS 
 Section 12.1. Applicability of Article. 

The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for such Securities. 
 The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided
for by the terms of any Securities of any series is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any sinking fund payment in excess of such minimum amount which is permitted to be made by the terms of such
Securities of any series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms of any Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided
in Section 12.2. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the terms of such Securities. 
 Section 12.2. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. 

In lieu of making all or any part of a mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of a series in cash, the Company may
at its option, at any time no more than 16 months and no less than 30 days prior to the date on which such sinking fund payment is due, deliver to the Trustee Securities of such series (together with the unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining
thereto) theretofore purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company, except Securities of such series that have been redeemed through the application of mandatory or optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of the Securities of such
series, accompanied by a Company Order instructing the Trustee to credit such obligations and stating that the Securities of such series were originally issued by the Company by way of bona fide sale or other negotiation for value; provided that the
Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the redemption price for such Securities, as specified in the Securities so to be
redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. 

Section 12.3. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. 
 Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any series of Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing
sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash in the currency in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as provided
pursuant to Section 3.1) and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 12.2 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Such Officers’
Certificate shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company shall be obligated to make the cash payment or payments therein referred to, if any, on or before the succeeding sinking fund payment date. In the case of the failure of the Company
to deliver such Officers’ Certificate (or, as required by this Indenture, the Securities and coupons, if any, specified in such Officers’ Certificate), the sinking fund payment due on the succeeding sinking fund payment date for such
series shall be paid entirely in cash and shall be sufficient to redeem the principal amount of the Securities of such series subject to a mandatory sinking fund payment without the right to deliver or credit securities as provided in
Section 12.2 and without the right to make the optional sinking fund payment with respect to such series at such time. 

Any sinking fund payment or payments (mandatory or optional) made in cash plus any unused balance of any preceding sinking fund payments
made with respect to the Securities of any particular series shall be applied by the Trustee (or by the Company if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent) on the sinking fund payment date on which such payment is made (or, if such payment is
made before a sinking fund payment date, on the sinking fund payment date immediately following the date of such payment) to the redemption of Securities of such series at the Redemption Price specified in such Securities with respect to the sinking
fund. Any sinking fund moneys not so applied or allocated by the Trustee (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated and held in trust by the Company as provided in Section 10.3) for such series and together with such
payment (or such amount 

  
 47 

 
so segregated) shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.3. Any and all sinking fund moneys with respect to the Securities of any particular series held by the
Trustee (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregated and held in trust as provided in Section 10.3) on the last sinking fund payment date with respect to Securities of such series and not held for the payment or redemption
of particular Securities of such series shall be applied by the Trustee (or by the Company if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent), together with other moneys, if necessary, to be deposited (or segregated) sufficient for the purpose, to
the payment of the principal of the Securities of such series at Maturity. The Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.3 and cause notice of the redemption
thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.4. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in
Section 11.6. On or before each sinking fund payment date, the Company shall pay to the Trustee (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3) in cash a sum
in the currency in which Securities of such series are payable (except as provided pursuant to Section 3.1) equal to the principal and any interest accrued to the Redemption Date for Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed on such sinking
fund payment date pursuant to this Section 12.3. 
 Neither the Trustee nor the Company shall redeem any Securities of a
series with sinking fund moneys or mail any notice of redemption of Securities of such series by operation of the sinking fund for such series during the continuance of a default in payment of interest, if any, on any Securities of such series or of
any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default occurring as a consequence of this paragraph) with respect to the Securities of such series, except that if the notice of redemption shall have been provided in accordance with the provisions
hereof, the Trustee (or the Company, if the Company is then acting as its own Paying Agent) shall redeem such Securities if cash sufficient for that purpose shall be deposited with the Trustee (or segregated by the Company) for that purpose in
accordance with the terms of this Article XII. Except as aforesaid, any moneys in the sinking fund for such series at the time when any such default or Event of Default shall occur and any moneys thereafter paid into such sinking fund shall, during
the continuance of such default or Event of Default, be held as security for the payment of the Securities and coupons, if any, of such series; provided, however, that in case such default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived
herein, such moneys shall thereafter be applied on the next sinking fund payment date for the Securities of such series on which such moneys may be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.3. 

ARTICLE XIII 

SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES 

Section 13.1. Securities Subordinate to Senior and Subordinated Debt. 

The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the
extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article XIII, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all amounts then due and payable in respect of all Senior and Subordinated Debt. 

Section 13.2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. 
 In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company (each such
event, if any, herein sometimes referred to as a “Proceeding”), then the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full of Allocable Amounts of such Senior and Subordinated Debt, or provision
shall be made for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive or retain any payment or distribution of
any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including any payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other Debt of the Company subordinated to the payment of the Securities, such
payment or distribution being hereinafter referred to as a “Junior Subordinated Payment”), on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or on account of the
purchase or other acquisition of Securities by the Company or any Subsidiary and to that end the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment thereof, any payment or distribution of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any Junior Subordinated Payment, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Securities in any such Proceeding. 

  
 48 

 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.2, the
Trustee or the Holder of any Security shall have received any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including any Junior Subordinated Payment, before all Allocable Amounts
of all Senior and Subordinated Debt are paid in full or payment thereof is provided for in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time
of such payment or distribution, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be paid over or delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver,
liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company for application to the payment of all Allocable Amounts of all Senior and Subordinated Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent
necessary to pay all Allocable Amounts of all Senior and Subordinated Debt in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt. 

For purposes of this Article XIII only, the words “any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property
or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment which securities are
subordinated in right of payment to all then outstanding Senior and Subordinated Debt to substantially the same extent as the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article XIII. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of
the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the sale of all or substantially all of its properties and assets as an entirety to another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article VIII
shall not be deemed a Proceeding for the purposes of this Section 13.2 if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by sale such properties and assets as an entirety, as the case
may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, or sale comply with the conditions set forth in Article VIII. 
 Section 13.3.
Prior Payment to Senior and Subordinated Debt Upon Acceleration of Securities.  
 In the event that any Securities are
declared due and payable before their Stated Maturity, then and in such event the holders of the Senior and Subordinated Debt outstanding at the time such Securities so become due and payable shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all
Allocable Amounts due on or in respect of such Senior and Subordinated Debt (including any amounts due upon acceleration), or provision shall be made for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the holders
of Senior and Subordinated Debt, before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities (including any Junior Subordinated Payment) by the Company
on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities by the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that
nothing in this Section 13.3 shall prevent the satisfaction of any sinking fund payment in accordance with this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series by delivering and crediting
pursuant to Section 12.2 or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series Securities which have been acquired (upon redemption or otherwise) prior to such declaration of acceleration. 

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Security
prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.3, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be
paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company. 
 The provisions of this Section 13.3 shall not apply to any payment
with respect to which Section 13.2 would be applicable. 

  
 49 

 Section 13.4. No Payment When Senior and Subordinated Debt in Default. 

(a) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Senior
and Subordinated Debt, or in the event that any event of default with respect to any Senior and Subordinated Debt shall have occurred and be continuing and shall have resulted in such Senior and Subordinated Debt becoming or being declared due and
payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist and such acceleration shall have been rescinded or annulled, or
(b) in the event any judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such default in payment or such event or default, then no payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, properties or securities (including any
Junior Subordinated Payment) shall be made by the Company on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest), if any, on the Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities by
the Company or any Subsidiary, in each case unless and until all Allocable Amounts of such Senior and Subordinated Debt are paid in full; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 13.4 shall prevent the satisfaction of any sinking
fund payment in accordance with this Indenture or as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series by delivering and crediting pursuant to Section 12.2 or as otherwise specified as contemplated by
Section 3.1 for the Securities of any series Securities which have been acquired (upon redemption or otherwise) prior to such default in payment or event of default. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Security prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.4, and if
such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company. 

The provisions of this Section 13.4 shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 13.2 would be applicable.

 Section 13.5. Payment Permitted if No Default. 
 Nothing contained in this Article XIII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except during the pendency of any Proceeding referred to
in Section 13.2 or under the conditions described in Sections 13.3 and 13.4, from making payments at any time of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including Additional Interest) on the Securities, or (b) the application by
the Trustee of any money deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such payment by the Holders, if, at
the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge that such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article XIII. 
 Section 13.6. Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt. 
 Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on all Senior and Subordinated Debt, or the provision for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory
to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior and Subordinated Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIII
(equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to Senior and Subordinated Debt of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior and
Subordinated Debt and is entitled to like rights of subrogation by reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior and Subordinated Debt) to the rights of the holders of such Senior and Subordinated Debt to receive payments
and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to the Senior and Subordinated Debt until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or
distributions to the holders of the Senior and Subordinated Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, and no payments over pursuant to
the provisions of this Article XIII to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, and the Holders of the
Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the Senior and Subordinated Debt. 

  
 50 

 Section 13.7. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. 

The provisions of this Article XIII are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the
Securities on the one hand and the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article XIII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Company
and the Holders of the Securities, the obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the
Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation
to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt; or (c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture including, without limitation, filing
and voting claims in any Proceeding, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XIII of the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder.

 Section 13.8. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. 
 Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the
subordination provided in this Article XIII and appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

Section 13.9. No Waiver of Subordination Provisions. 
 No right of any present or future holder of any Senior and Subordinated Debt to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act
on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such
holder may have or be otherwise charged with. 
 Without in any way limiting the generality of the immediately preceding
paragraph, the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt may, at any time and from to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without
impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or
terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior and Subordinated Debt, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior and Subordinated Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior
and Subordinated Debt is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior and Subordinated Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection
of Senior and Subordinated Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person. 

Section 13.10. Notice to Trustee. 
 The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XIII or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities, unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt or from any trustee, agent or representative therefor; provided, however, that if
the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 13.10 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the
payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such
monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date.

 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the
delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt (or a trustee therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt (or a trustee
therefor). In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this
Article, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior and Subordinated Debt held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such
Person to receive such payment. 
 Section 13.11. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. 

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XIII, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of
Section 6.2, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver,
liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior and Subordinated Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts
pertinent thereto or to this Article XIII. 
 Section 13.12. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior and Subordinated Debt.

 The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of
Senior and Subordinated Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders
of Senior and Subordinated Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise. 
 Section 13.13. Rights of Trustee as Holder
of Senior and Subordinated Debt; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights. 
 The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be
entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article XIII with respect to any Senior and Subordinated Debt which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior and Subordinated Debt, and nothing in this Indenture
shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 
 Section 13.14. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. 

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the
term “Trustee” as used in this Article XIII shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying
Agent were named in this Article XIII in addition to or in place of the Trustee. 
 Section 13.15. Certain Conversions or Exchanges
Deemed Payment. 
 For the purposes of this Article XIII only, (a) the issuance and delivery of junior securities upon
conversion or exchange of Securities shall not be deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest (including any Additional Interest) on Securities or on account of the purchase or other
acquisition of Securities, and (b) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash, property or securities (other than junior securities) upon conversion or exchange of a Security shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of
such security. For the purposes of this Section 13.15, the term “junior securities” means (i) shares of any stock of any class of the Company and (ii) securities of the Company which are subordinated in right of
payment to all Senior and Subordinated Debt which may be outstanding at the time of issuance or delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this
Article XIII. 
 This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be
an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
