The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Issuer on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date.

ARTICLE II
General Terms and Conditions of the Notes

SECTION 2.1.  Designation and Principal Amount.  There is hereby authorized and established a series of Securities under the Indenture, designated as the “5.750% Fixed-Rate Reset Junior Subordinated Notes due 2040,” which is not limited in aggregate principal amount.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued as of the date hereof shall be $350,000,000.
SECTION 2.2.  Further Issues.  So long as no Event of Default or Mandatory Deferral Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes at the time of such issuance, the Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes.  Any such additional Notes will have the same interest rate, maturity date and other terms as the Notes, but may have a different issue date, issue price, initial Interest Payment Date and initial interest accrual date.  Any such additional Notes, together with any other Notes previously issued pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture; provided that if any such additional Notes would not be fungible with the Outstanding Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Issuer shall cause such additional Notes to be issued with a separate CUSIP number.
SECTION 2.3.  Offices for Payments, Etc.  Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or an office or agency maintained by the Issuer for such purpose, in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in Dollars; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Securities Register; and provided further, however, that all payments in respect of Notes in the form of global Securities shall be made by wire transfer in same-day funds in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.  In any case where the date of maturity of interest on, premium, if any, or principal of any Note or the date fixed 
6
 

for redemption of the Notes is not a Business Day, then the relevant payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date and no interest shall accrue in respect of such amount for the period from and after such date.  The Notes may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange, and notices to or upon the Issuer in respect of such Notes may be served, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or an office or agency maintained by the Issuer for such purpose, in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.
SECTION 2.4.  Denominations.  The Notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
SECTION 2.5.  Global Securities.  The Notes will be issued as Registered Securities in the form of one or more permanent global Securities.
SECTION 2.6.  Supplemental Indentures.
(a)  Section 8.1(a)(i) of the Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.
(b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.2(a) of the Indenture, no supplemental indenture may, without the consent of each Holder of an affected Note and the BMA, change the stated maturity of, the principal of, or any premium or installment of interest on, any of the Notes.
SECTION 2.7.  Defeasance.  The provisions of Article 10 of the Indenture will apply to the Notes.
SECTION 2.8.  Appointment of Agents.  The Trustee will initially be the paying agent, registrar and custodian for the Notes.
SECTION 2.9.  Depositary.  The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation, will initially act as Depositary with respect to the Notes.
SECTION 2.10.  Form of Notes.  The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication to be endorsed thereon are to be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
ARTICLE III
Interest

SECTION 3.1.  Interest Rate.  The Notes will bear interest (i) from the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, September 1, 2025 (the “First Reset Date”) at the fixed rate of 5.750% per annum and (ii) from, and including, the First Reset Date, during each Reset Period, at a rate per annum equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Interest Determination Date plus 5.468% to be reset on each Reset Date. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on September 1 and March 1 of each year, commencing on March 1, 2021, to Holders of record on the immediately preceding February 15 and August 15, respectively. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 26, 2020. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprising twelve 30-day months.
SECTION 3.2.  Calculation Agent.  Unless the Issuer has validly redeemed all Outstanding Notes on or before the First Reset Date, it will appoint a Calculation Agent with respect to the Notes prior to the Reset Interest Determination Date preceding the First Reset 
7
 

Date. The Issuer may terminate any such appointment as long as it appoints a successor agent at the time of termination. The Issuer will initially act as Calculation Agent and may subsequently appoint one of its affiliates as Calculation Agent. The applicable interest rate for each Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent, as of the applicable Reset Interest Determination Date. Promptly upon such determination, the Calculation Agent will notify the Issuer of the interest rate for the relevant Reset Period. The Issuer shall then promptly notify the Trustee and paying agent in writing of such interest rate. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Reset Period beginning on or after the First Reset Date shall be maintained on file at the Issuer’s principal offices and will be made available to any Holder of the Notes upon request and will be final and binding in the absence of manifest error.
SECTION 3.3.  Mandatory Deferral of Interest Payments.  If, as of any Interest Payment Date, a Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing (the duration of such continuance, a “Mandatory Deferral Period”), the Issuer and the Guarantor shall be required to defer payment of all (and not less than all) of the interest accrued on the Notes as of such Interest Payment Date. Any such accrued interest, the payment of which is so deferred, so long as such interest remains unpaid, will constitute Arrears of Interest and will be subject to Section 3.4. Prior to a Mandatory Deferral Event, the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate (which need not comply with the requirements of Section 13.5 of the Indenture) identifying the beginning of the Mandatory Deferral Period and shall notify the Holders of the Notes at least five Business Days before the first Interest Payment Date during the Mandatory Deferral Period, unless the Mandatory Deferral Event occurs within such five Business Day period, in which case the Issuer shall so notify the Holders promptly following the occurrence of such Mandatory Deferral Event.
Notwithstanding any other provision in the Notes, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, the deferral resulting from a Mandatory Deferral Event will constitute neither an Event of Default nor a default of any kind, and will not give Holders or the Trustee any right to accelerate repayment of the Notes or any other remedies pursuant to Article 5 of the Indenture or otherwise.
SECTION 3.4.  Arrears of Interest.
(a)  Any interest in respect of the Notes not paid on an Interest Payment Date, together with any interest in respect of the Notes not paid on an earlier Interest Payment Date will, so long as the same remains unpaid, constitute “Arrears of Interest” in respect of the Notes. Arrears of Interest shall be cumulative and bear interest at the interest rate payable on the Notes (such cumulative interest also constituting Arrears of Interest). Arrears of Interest on the Notes will remain outstanding, and will accumulate interest, for so long as they remain unpaid. Any references in the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes to “accrued and unpaid interest” shall include any Arrears of Interest. The amount of any Arrears of Interest will be calculated by the Issuer or the Calculation Agent.
(b)  So long as no Event of Default or Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing, at the Issuer’s option, Arrears of Interest on the Notes may be paid in whole or in part to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered as of the close of business on the 15th calendar day (whether or not such date is a Business Day) immediately preceding the date on which payment of such Arrears of Interest is to be made, at any time upon the expiration of not more than 15 nor less than five Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee, the paying agent and the Holders of the Notes to such effect (which written notice shall specify the amount of such Arrears of Interest).
8
 

(c)  If not previously paid, Arrears of Interest with respect to the Notes shall become due and payable, and shall be paid by the Issuer in whole (and not in part), on the earliest of:
(1) so long as no Event of Default or Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing, the next Interest Payment Date;
(2) the date of redemption of the Notes in accordance with Article IV;
(3) the date on which a Winding-Up of the Issuer or the Guarantor occurs; or
(4) the Final Maturity Date;
provided that, in the event of there being Arrears of Interest on the Final Maturity Date, such Arrears of Interest shall be paid before any repayment of principal.
SECTION 3.5.  Dividend and Other Payment Stoppages During Mandatory Deferral Periods.  So long as the Notes remain outstanding, if a Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing, and for so long as any Arrears of Interest remain outstanding, then the Guarantor will not:
(a)  declare or pay any dividends or distributions on its preferred shares or ordinary shares (collectively, “capital stock”), other than a dividend payable solely in the form of equity securities, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such capital stock; or
(b)  repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of capital stock, directly or indirectly (other than (i) as a result of a reclassification of capital stock for or into other capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one share of capital stock for or into another share of capital stock, (ii) through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of capital stock or (iii) as required by or necessary to fulfill the terms of any employment contract, benefit plan or similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, directors or consultants).
ARTICLE IV
Repayment and Redemption; Variation and Substitution

SECTION 4.1.  Repayment at Final Maturity.  
(a)  Unless the Notes are redeemed prior to maturity, the Notes will mature, and the principal amount of the Notes will become payable on the Final Maturity Date, at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to, but excluding, the Final Maturity Date. The “Final Maturity Date” means (1) September 1, 2040 (the “Scheduled Maturity Date”), if, on the Scheduled Maturity Date, the BMA Redemption Requirements are satisfied, or (2) otherwise, following the Scheduled Maturity Date, the earlier of (i) the date falling ten Business Days after the BMA Redemption Requirements are satisfied and would continue to be satisfied if such payment were made and (ii) the date on which a Winding-Up of the Issuer or the Guarantor occurs.
(b)  For the avoidance of doubt, interest shall continue to accrue and be payable (and any deferred interest shall constitute Arrears of Interest) for so long as the principal amount 
9
 

of the Notes remains outstanding. In the event the Scheduled Maturity Date and the Final Maturity Date are not the same, failure to repay the Notes on the Scheduled Maturity Date will constitute neither an Event of Default nor a default of any kind and will not give Holders of the Notes or the Trustee any right to accelerate repayment of the Notes or any other remedies pursuant to Article 5 of the Indenture or otherwise.
(c)  The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes at least ten Business Days before the Scheduled Maturity Date if the BMA Redemption Requirements will not be satisfied on the Scheduled Maturity Date, unless the BMA Redemption Requirements are no longer satisfied within such ten Business Day period, in which case the Issuer shall so notify the Holders as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements, which notice shall state the cause of the failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements, and the repayment shall be deferred until such time as the BMA Redemption Requirements are satisfied. In such event, the Issuer shall further notify the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes not more than ten Business Days following the satisfaction of the BMA Redemption Requirements that the BMA Redemption Requirements have been satisfied and stating the new repayment date for the Notes, which shall be no later than the 15th Business Day following the date the BMA Redemption Requirements were satisfied.
SECTION 4.2.  Make-Whole and Par Call Redemptions.  
(a)  Subject to the BMA Redemption Requirements, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof), at any time not during a Par Call Period, at a redemption price, as calculated by the Independent Investment Banker, equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on such Notes (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of such redemption date) that would be due if the Notes matured on the next Reset Date, discounted to such redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprising twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points; plus, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to, but excluding, such redemption date.
(b)  At any time during a Par Call Period, subject to the BMA Redemption Requirements, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to, but excluding, such redemption date.
SECTION 4.3.  Optional Redemption upon a Capital Disqualification Event.  Subject to the BMA Redemption Requirements, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at any time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to, but excluding, such redemption date, within 90 days of the date on which it has reasonably determined that, as a result of (i) any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of Bermuda that is enacted or becomes effective after the initial issuance of the Notes; (ii) any proposed amendment to, or change in, those laws or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance of the Notes; or (iii) any official administrative decision, judicial decision, administrative action or other official pronouncement interpreting or applying those laws or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of the Notes, a Capital Disqualification Event has occurred.
SECTION 4.4.  Optional Redemption upon a Rating Agency Event.  Subject to the BMA Redemption Requirements, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at any time, at a redemption price equal to 102% of the principal amount, plus accrued 
10
 

and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to, but excluding, such redemption date, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event.
SECTION 4.5.  Optional Redemption upon a Tax Event.  Subject to the BMA Redemption Requirements, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at any time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to, but excluding, such redemption date, after the occurrence of a Tax Event.
SECTION 4.6.  Notice of Redemption.  Notwithstanding Section 14.2 of the Indenture, the Issuer will provide notice of any redemption at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.4 and Section 14.2 of the Indenture.  For the avoidance of doubt, whenever any determination is required to be made as to whether any redemption occurs within or not within a Par Call Period or any other specified period, the actual date of redemption and not the date of notice of redemption shall govern. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes at least ten Business Days before the applicable redemption date if the BMA Redemption Requirements will not be satisfied on the applicable redemption date, unless the BMA Redemption Requirements are no longer satisfied within such ten Business Day period, in which case the Issuer shall so notify the Trustee and the Holders as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements, which notice shall state the cause of the failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements, and the redemption shall be deferred until such time as the BMA Redemption Requirements are satisfied. In such event, the Issuer shall further notify the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes not more than ten Business Days following the satisfaction of the BMA Redemption Requirements that the BMA Redemption Requirements have been satisfied and stating the new redemption date for the Notes, which shall be no later than the 15th Business Day following the date the BMA Redemption Requirements were satisfied.
SECTION 4.7.  Conditions to Repayment and Redemption.
(a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, (i) prior to September 1, 2025, the Notes may be redeemed only with BMA Approval, and (ii) the Notes may not be redeemed at any time or repaid prior to the Final Maturity Date if the Enhanced Capital Requirement would be breached immediately before or after giving effect to such redemption or repayment of the Notes, unless, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), the Guarantor, the Issuer or another subsidiary of the Guarantor replaces the capital represented by the Notes to be redeemed or repaid with capital having equal or better capital treatment as the Notes under the Group Rules (collectively the “BMA Redemption Requirements”).
(b)  In the event that the Notes are not redeemed or repaid as a result of a failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements, interest on the Notes will continue to accrue and be paid on each Interest Payment Date (subject to Section 3.3 and Section 3.4) until the first date on which final payment on the Notes may be made as described in Section 4.1, at which time the Notes will become due and payable, and will be finally repaid at the principal amount of the Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest in the manner and subject to the conditions of Section 4.7(a).
(c)  Notwithstanding any provision of the Notes, this Supplemental Indenture or the Indenture, in the event of non-payment on a scheduled redemption date or the Scheduled Maturity Date resulting from a failure to satisfy the BMA Redemption Requirements in accordance with this Section 4.7, the Notes to be redeemed or repaid will not become due and payable on such date, and such non-payment will constitute neither an Event of Default nor a default of any 
11
 

kind with respect to the Notes, and will not give Holders of the Notes or the Trustee any right to accelerate repayment of the Notes or any other remedies pursuant to Article 5 of the Indenture or otherwise.
(d)  An Officer’s Certificate relating to the Notes in connection with repayment or any redemption under this Article IV certifying that (i) the BMA Redemption Requirements have not been met or would not be met if the Notes were repaid or the applicable redemption payment were made, (ii) the BMA Redemption Requirements have been met and would continue to be met if the Notes were to be repaid or the applicable redemption payment were made or (iii) no such BMA Redemption Requirements apply shall, in the absence of manifest error, be treated and accepted by the Trustee, the Holders and all other interested parties as correct and sufficient evidence thereof and shall be final and binding on such parties. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such Officer’s Certificate without liability to any Person and shall have no duty to ascertain the existence of any such manifest error.
SECTION 4.8.  Interest Following Redemption.  Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price (including, for this purpose, a non-payment in the event the BMA Requirements have not been satisfied), on and after a redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption.
SECTION 4.9.  Mandatory Redemption.  The Issuer is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
SECTION 4.10.  Variation and Substitution.  
(a)  If a Capital Disqualification Event, Rating Agency Event or Tax Event occurs, the Issuer may, as an alternative to redemption of the Notes, at any time, without the consent of any Holder, vary any term or condition of the Notes or substitute all (but not less than all) of the Notes for other notes, so that the varied Notes or the substituted notes, as the case may be, constitute Qualifying Equivalent Securities.
(b)  In the event of a substitution pursuant to this Section 4.10, the principal amount of the Qualifying Equivalent Securities to be received by Holders in substitution shall be equal to the principal amount of the Notes substituted.
(c)  Any variation or substitution of the Notes is subject to no more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days’ prior notice by the Issuer to the Holders (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date fixed for such variation or substitution) in accordance with Section 13.4 of the Indenture and shall be further subject to:
(1) the Guarantor being in compliance with the Applicable Supervisory Regulations on the date of such variation or substitution (after giving effect to such variation or substitution), and such variation or substitution not resulting directly or indirectly in a breach of the Applicable Supervisory Regulations;
(2) the Issuer complying with the rules of any stock exchange (or any other relevant authority) on which the Issuer has had the Notes listed or admitted to trading;
(3) in respect of substitution only, all payments of interest, including Arrears of Interest, and any other amount payable under the Notes that, in each case, has accrued to Holders of the Notes 
12
 

and has not been paid, being satisfied in full on or prior to the date thereof; and
(4) immediately after the substitution or variation the Issuer not triggering its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 4.3, Section 4.4 or Section 4.5.
(d)  The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee on the date fixed for any such variation or substitution an Officer’s Certificate, upon which the Trustee shall be permitted to conclusively rely, stating that all conditions precedent hereunder to such variation or substitution, including, without limitation, the conditions set forth in Section 4.10(c), have been complied with.
SECTION 4.11.  Contractual Subordination.  The Securities will be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any existing and future liabilities of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries (other than the Issuer), including amounts owed to holders of reinsurance and insurance policies issued by its reinsurance and insurance company subsidiaries.

Lender; and (b) the date the Warehousing Commitment is terminated and the Warehousing Advances become due and payable under
Section 10.2(a) or 10.2(b).”

 

(b)       Section 3.4
of the Credit Facility Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

“3.4     Facility
Fee

 

Borrower shall pay to Lender an
annual facility fee in an amount equal to ten (10) basis points of the Standard Warehousing Credit Limit (the “Facility
Fee”), to be paid quarterly in arrears, commencing on the first Business Day of each Calendar Quarter following the Closing
Date during the term of this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, Borrower shall pay to Lender an additional facility fee in
the amount of $10,000 for each Minimum Incremental Amount (the “Temporary Facility Fee”). For example, if the
Standard Warehousing Credit Limit were increased by Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000) pursuant to the terms of the first
paragraph of Section 3.13 hereof, the additional commitment fee shall be $20,000. Said fee shall be due and payable in connection
with each increase of the Standard Warehousing Credit Limit pursuant to the terms of the first paragraph of Section 3.13 hereof.

 

Additionally, in the event Borrower
exercises its right under the second paragraph of Section 3.13 and seeks an increase of the Maximum Warehousing Credit Limit
up to the Limited Bulge Credit Limit, Borrower shall pay to Lender a bulge commitment fee in an amount calculated as follows: ten
(10) basis points (0.001) multiplied by the portion of the Bulge Increase Amount actually drawn as a Warehousing Advance hereunder,
then divided by 365 (for the number of days in the year), then multiplied for the number of days that the portion of the Bulge
Increase Amount is actually drawn as a Warehousing Advance hereunder remains outstanding (the “Bulge Commitment Fee”).
For example, if the Bulge Increase Amount is $500,000,000 and such amount is fully drawn as a Warehousing Advance and remains outstanding
for 60 days, the additional commitment fee would be $82,191.60, based on the following calculation: .001 x $500,000,000 = 500,000;
500,000/365 = 1,369.86 x 60 = $82,191.60. The Bulge Commitment Fee shall be payable in full upon repayment of the Warehousing Advances
drawn with respect to the Bulge Increase Amount.”

 

(c)        A
new Section 3.11(h) is hereby added to the end of Section 3.11 of the Credit Facility Agreement as follows:

 

    	 	2	 

     

    

 

		“3.11(h)	The LIBOR Replacement Rider attached to this Agreement as Schedule 1 and incorporated herein
by this reference provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest in the event that the London interbank offered
rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances. Lender does not warrant or accept any responsibility for and shall
not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered
rate or other rates in the definition of “Daily LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto,
or replacement rate therefor. To the extent that any term or provision of the LIBOR Replacement Rider is or may be inconsistent
with any term or provision in the remainder of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the terms and provisions of the LIBOR
Replacement Rider shall control.”

 

(d)       Section 3.13
of the Credit Facility Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Borrower shall have the right,
upon no less than five days prior written notice to Lender, during the term of this Agreement, to request one or more incremental

(i) the amount of the incremental increase of the Standard Warehousing Credit Limit and (ii) the effective date for the
increase of the Standard Warehousing Credit Limit. Any incremental increase shall be made at the sole discretion of Lender. Provided
such incremental increase is approved by Lender, said incremental increase of the Standard Warehousing Credit Limit shall remain
in effect for a period of forty-five (45) days following such effective date.

 

Commencing on August 21, 2020
and continuing until October 25, 2020, Borrower shall have the additional one time right, upon no less than five days prior
written notice to Lender, to request an increase of the Maximum Warehousing Credit Limit up to the Limited Bulge Credit Limit.
Borrower’s notice shall indicate (i) the amount of the increase of the Maximum Warehousing Credit Limit (the “Bulge
Increase Amount”), and (ii) the effective date for the increase of the Maximum Warehousing Credit Limit. The increase

SCHEDULE 1

 

LIBOR
REPLACEMENT Rider

 

(a)       Benchmark
Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, if the Lender determines that a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Event has occurred, the Lender
may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with the provisions of this Rider; and any
such amendment shall be in writing, shall specify the date that the Benchmark Replacement is effective and will not require any
further action or consent of the Borrower. Until the Benchmark Replacement is effective, amounts bearing interest with reference
to LIBOR will continue to bear interest with reference to LIBOR; provided however, during a Benchmark Unavailability Period such
amounts automatically will bear interest at the rate and on the terms that would have been applicable under this Agreement if the
Lender had given notice that LIBOR had become unavailable.

 

(b)       Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Lender will have
the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective
without any further action or consent of the Borrower.

 

(c)       Notices;
Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrower of (i) the effectiveness
of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (ii) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by the Lender pursuant to this Rider, including any determination with respect to a tenor,
rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain
from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without
consent from the Borrower, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Rider. In addition to any delivery method
permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, the Lender may provide any amendment, notice or other communication to the
Borrower hereunder electronically (including to any electronic address that the Borrower provides to the Lender) or through an
automated platform that the Lender provides to the Borrower.

 

(d)       Certain
Defined Terms. As used in this Rider:

 

“Benchmark Replacement”
means the sum of: (a) the Benchmark Replacement Index and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, if
at any time the Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than the Benchmark Replacement Floor, the Benchmark Replacement
will be deemed to be the Benchmark Replacement Floor for the purposes of this Agreement.

 

    	 		 

     

    

 

“Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment” means, for each applicable LIBOR-based rate and tenor, the spread adjustment to the Benchmark Replacement
Index, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that
has been selected by the Lender (a) giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment,
or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of LIBOR with the applicable Benchmark Replacement
Index by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread
adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for such replacement of LIBOR for U.S. dollar-denominated
credit facilities at such time and (b) which also may reflect adjustments to account for (i) the effects of the transition
from LIBOR to the Benchmark Replacement and (ii) yield- or risk-based differences between LIBOR and the Benchmark Replacement.

 

“Benchmark Replacement
Commencement Date” means the date a Benchmark Replacement has replaced LIBOR for all purposes under this Agreement in

(including, for example, changes to the definition of “Applicable Base Rate,” the definition of “LIBOR Interest
Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters) that
the Lender decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the
administration thereof by the Lender in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Lender the Lender decides
that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Lender determines that no market
practice for the administration of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Lender decides
is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement).

 

“Benchmark Replacement
Floor” means the minimum rate of interest, if any, specified for LIBOR under the terms of this Agreement or, if no minimum
rate of interest is specified, zero.

 

“Benchmark Replacement
Index” means the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Lender to replace LIBOR giving due consideration
to (a) any selection or recommendation of a replacement rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant

to LIBOR for U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities.

 

“Benchmark Replacement
Transition Date” means the earlier to occur of the following events with respect to LIBOR:

		(2)	a public statement or publication of information by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction
over the Lender, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR, the U.S. Federal Reserve System, an insolvency official
with jurisdiction over the administrator for LIBOR, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for LIBOR or
a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for LIBOR, which states that the administrator
of LIBOR has ceased or will cease to provide LIBOR permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or
publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide LIBOR; or

 

		(3)	a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator
of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender announcing that LIBOR is no longer representative.

Period” means the period, if any, beginning on the Benchmark Replacement Transition Date and ending on the Benchmark
