 Dear Evan:

 This Letter of Intent to Lend, when countersigned below, will confirm the intention of Stuart W. Epperson, (“Lender”) to

	1.	Revolving Line of Credit; Term 

 Borrower
may borrow any amount, up to the amount stated above, as a revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”), upon two business days notice to Lender. If Borrower borrows funds, the funds will be due three months from the date Lender makes
such funds available to Borrower. Borrower may prepay any or all of the funds borrowed at any time, without penalty. The Line of Credit will remain outstanding and available to Borrower, even if there is no outstanding balance due on the Line of
Credit. The ability of Borrower to borrow under the Line of Credit will terminate upon either party giving thirty days written notice of such termination to the other party, with any outstanding balance at the time of termination due in accordance
with the terms hereof. 
  

	2.	Interest Rate; Payment 

 The interest
rate on funds borrowed under the Line of Credit shall be the lesser of: 
  

	(a)	five percent (5%) simple interest; or 

  

	(a)	 the then-current, applicable indexed rate (the rate of interest that Salem is required to pay) under the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as
of November 15, 2011 (the “Second Amendment”), to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2009, as amended by that certain AMENDMENT NO. 1 AND WAIVER dated as of November 1, 2010 among Borrower, Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, and each lender from time to

 time party thereto
plus two percent (2%); (the “Applicable Interest Rate”). The Applicable Interest Rate shall accrue on any borrowings made hereunder from the date of withdrawal until the date the funds are repaid. Interest shall be due on the date that the
funds are repaid. Partial payments on the Line of Credit balance shall be applied to the oldest outstanding amounts first. 
  

	3.	Certain Conditions for Establishing the Line of Credit 

 The availability of funds pursuant to the Line of Credit shall be subject in all respects to the satisfaction of the conditions and covenants specified below: 

 

	(b)	Modification of Borrower’s credit agreements with its lenders to permit Borrower to repay to Lender funds drawn on the Line of Credit without first having to repay
Borrower’s outstanding loans to those lenders; and 

  

	(c)	The approval of the Line of Credit by the Board of Directors of Borrower. 

  

	4.	Use of Funds 

 Borrower may use funds
from the Line of Credit for any purpose. 
  

	5.	Definitive Documentation 

 Following the
execution of this Letter of Intent to Lend by Borrower, and if required by the Second Amendment, Borrower will prepare and deliver to Lender a definitive unsecured revolving line of credit agreement (the “Line of Credit Agreement”)
containing terms consistent with this Letter of Intent to Lend and customary representations, warranties and terms for a transaction of this nature between similarly situated parties. If required, Lender and Borrower will each negotiate in good
faith to execute the Line of Credit Agreement within seven days of the satisfaction of the conditions stated in Paragraph 3 of this Letter of Intent to Lend, and approval of the Line of Credit Agreement by Borrower’s Board of Directors.

  

	6.	Fees/Expenses 

 Each party shall bear its
own legal and accounting fees. 
  

	7.	Confidentiality 

 All information
concerning any party hereto that is provided to any other party hereto, other than publicly available information, will be kept in strict confidence by the party to whom such information is provided.

	8.	Binding Effect 

 The parties
acknowledge and agree that this Letter of Intent to Lend is intended to be and shall be construed as binding upon the parties upon mutual execution. This Letter of Intent to Lend is intended to provide both guidance in the preparation of a more
complete Line of Credit Agreement and evidence of a legally binding agreement between the parties, enforceable in accordance with the terms set forth above. The parties agree to use their best efforts to negotiate a more complete agreement that will
supersede this agreement. However, failure to achieve a more complete agreement will not limit the enforceability of the agreement reflected in this Letter of Intent to Lend. This Letter of Intent to Lend will be binding upon the parties until
terminated in accordance with the terms set forth herein or the parties execute a Line of Credit Agreement which shall supersede this Letter of Intent to Lend and all prior discussions, both written and oral, between the parties. 

This Letter of Intent to Lend and Lender’s commitment shall become effective as of the date of execution hereof by Borrower and upon receipt by
Lender of a signed counterpart of this letter. This Letter of Intent to Lend shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California. 
 The proposal outlined in this letter will automatically expire if not accepted and returned to Lender by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on November 30, 2011. 

Very truly yours, 
 STUART W. EPPERSON

 SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURE, dated as of March 9, 2012, between THE GOLDMAN SACHS GROUP, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the
laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), having its principal office at 200 West Street, New York, New York 10282, and THE BANK OF NEW YORK
MELLON, a New York banking corporation, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), to the Subordinated Debt Indenture, dated as of February 20, 2004, between the Company and the Trustee (the
“Original Indenture”). 
 W I T N E
S S E T H : 

WHEREAS, the Original Indenture provides for the issuance from time to time thereunder, in one or
more series, of unsecured debentures, notes or other evidence of indebtedness of the Company, and Section 301 of the Original Indenture provides for the establishment of the form or terms of Securities of any series issued thereunder, and any
additions to, changes in or eliminations of any provisions of the Original Indenture in respect of such series as provided therein, through one or more supplemental indentures; 

WHEREAS, the Company, by a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2007 (the
“Second Supplemental Indenture”), created and issued a series of Securities known as the Company’s Remarketable 5.593% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2043 (the “Remarketable Notes”), the terms and
provisions of which were as specified in the Second Supplemental Indenture, and to the extent not added to, changed or eliminated by the Second Supplemental Indenture, the Original Indenture; 

WHEREAS, the Company, by a Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 6, 2012 (the
“Fourth Supplemental Indenture”), modified certain terms of the Remarketable Notes and of the Second Supplemental Indenture (the Second Supplement Indenture as so modified, the “Supplemental
Indenture”, and the Original Indenture, as modified and supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”); 
 WHEREAS, Section 901(11) of the Original Indenture and Section 3.6 of the Supplemental Indenture permit the Company to enter into a supplemental indenture
without the consent of any Holder of the Remarketable Notes or of any APEX Holder to reflect any modifications to the terms of the Remarketable Notes pursuant to the terms of Article III of the Supplemental Indenture and to provide for the exchange
of the Remarketable Notes for notes in the form reflecting such modifications and adopted pursuant to such supplemental indenture; 
 WHEREAS, Section 3.2 of the Supplemental Indenture permits the Company, without the consent of any Holder of the Notes or any APEX Holders to (a) divide the
Remarketable Notes into multiple tranches, and if so, determine the principal amount of each tranche of notes into which each Remarketable Note shall be exchanged (collectively, the “Remarketed Notes”), (b) keep the
Stated Maturity Date of any tranche of Remarketed Notes at June 1, 2043 or change it to an earlier date (specifying such date if applicable); provided that the Stated Maturity Date of any tranche of Remarketed Notes may not be changed to
a date earlier than the later of (i) June 1, 2016 and (ii) if the Remarketing Settlement Date occurs during an Extension Period, the seventh anniversary of the first day of such Extension Period, (c) change the date after which any
tranche of Remarketed Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option and the redemption price or prices; provided that no redemption date for any tranche of Remarketed Notes may be earlier than the later of (i) June 1, 2016
and (ii) if the Remarketing Settlement Date occurs during an Extension Period, the seventh anniversary of the first day of such Extension Period; and provided, further, that no Redemption Price may be less than 100% of the
principal amount of such tranche of Remarketed Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, in accordance with Article XI of the Original Indenture; (d) remarket each tranche of Remarketed
Notes as fixed rate notes or floating rate notes, and (e) if the Remarketed Notes of 

  

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

 
any tranche will be remarketed as floating rate notes, determine the applicable index (which must be a qualified floating rate) and the interest payment dates and manner of calculation of
interest on such tranche of Remarketed Notes, which the Company may change to correspond with the market conventions applicable to notes bearing interest at rates based on the applicable index, any such changes to apply automatically and come into
effect on the Remarketing Settlement Date; 
 WHEREAS, Section 901 of the Original
Indenture, as supplemented by Section 2.9 of the Supplemental Indenture, permits the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee to enter into a supplemental indenture without the consent of any Holders of Remarketable Notes
in the event any Notes are sold in the Remarketing to one or more statutory trusts sponsored by the Company, to modify the provisions of Sections 2.7, 2.9(c), 2.10 through 2.15, 4.1 and 7.3 of the Supplemental Indenture to make comparable provision
with respect to each such trust and the holders of its trust securities, and to modify the definitions of “Investment Company Event” and “Tax Event” to refer to each such statutory trust in lieu of Goldman Sachs Capital II, a
Delaware statutory trust (the “APEX Trust”), and to replace references to the date of issuance of the APEX with references to the Remarketing Settlement Date; 

WHEREAS, Murray Street Investment Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “New
Trust”), has agreed pursuant to a Distribution Agreement dated March 5, 2012, with the Company and Goldman, Sachs & Co. (as representative of the agents named therein) to issue $1,750,010,000 liquidation amount of its

redesignated as the Series MS-1 Remarketed 4.647% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Notes”) in accordance with this Sixth Supplemental Indenture; 

WHEREAS, the New Trust has accordingly agreed pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement, dated
March 5, 2012, with the Company, the APEX Trust, and Goldman, Sachs & Co., as remarketing agent, to use the net proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Trust Securities to purchase $1,750,010,000 principal amount of the Notes from the
APEX Trust on the date hereof; 
 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to make certain changes as
specified herein to the terms of and provisions of the Indenture and establish the terms of the Notes and to authorize the exchange of the Remarketable Notes for the Notes; 
 WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture; and 

WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Sixth Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement according
to its terms have been done.

regulation of any administrative or governmental body): (i) default in the payment of any interest upon any Note, in full for a period of 30 days after the conclusion of any Extension Period; (ii) the termination of the Issuer Trust
without redeeming the Trust Securities; (iii) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other
similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

regulatory authority, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Issuer Trust is or will be considered an investment company that is required to be registered under the Investment Company

“Pari Passu Securities” means all indebtedness and obligations that, among other things, by
their terms rank equally with the Notes in right of payment and upon liquidation and guarantees of such indebtedness and includes the Company’s Remarketable Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2043; provided that “Pari

Attention: International Corporate Trust. 
 “Second Supplemental Indenture” means this
Second Supplemental Indenture, as amended by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 6, 2012, and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 9, 2012, each between the Company and the Trustee, and as it may from

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

Barclay Street, Floor 4E, New York, New York 10286 – Attention: International Corporate Trust. 

“Senior Debt” means all indebtedness and obligations (other than the Notes) of, or guaranteed or
assumed by, the Company, that are for borrowed money or are evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or other similar instruments, whether now existing or hereafter created, and all amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications and refundings of such
indebtedness and obligations, but not including trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities arising in the ordinary course of business, which rank equally in right of payment and upon liquidation with the Notes, unless in any such case, in the
instrument creating or evidencing the same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding, it is provided that such obligations are subordinate, or not superior, in right of payment to the Notes; provided, however, that the Notes will
rank equally in right of payment with any Pari Passu Securities. The obligations of the Company under the Guarantee Agreement shall constitute Senior Debt. 

“Stated Maturity Date” means March 9, 2017. 

“Tax Event” means the Company’s receipt of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as a
result of: (i) an amendment to or change (including any announced prospective change) in the laws or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes
effective after the initial issuance of the Trust Securities; (ii) a proposed change in those laws or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of the Trust Securities; (iii) an official administrative decision or judicial
decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement interpreting or applying those laws or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of the Trust Securities; or (iv) a threatened challenge asserted in connection
with an audit of the Issuer Trust or any similar statutory trust sponsored by the Company, the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries, or a threatened challenge asserted in writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the
issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Notes or the Trust Securities, there is more than an insubstantial increase in risk that: (a) the Issuer Trust is, or will be, subject to United States federal income tax with respect
to income received or accrued on the Notes; (b) interest payable by the Company on the Notes is not, or will not be, deductible by the Company, in whole or in part, for United States Federal income tax purposes; or (c) the Issuer Trust is,
or will be, subject to more than an insignificant amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges.

 THE GOLDMAN SACHS GROUP, INC. 

SERIES MS-1 REMARKETED 4.647% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED NOTE
DUE 2017 
 THE GOLDMAN SACHS GROUP, INC.,
a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (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 March 9, 2017 (the “Stated Maturity Date”). The Company further promises to pay interest
(subject to deferral as set forth herein) on said principal sum from and including December 1, 2011, or from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, until the principal hereof is
paid or made available for payment. Interest shall be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing June 1, 2012, (i) at the rate of 5.593% per annum from and including
December 1, 2011 to but excluding March 9, 2012, and (ii) from and including March 9, 2012 until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment at a rate of 4.647% per annum, in each
case plus Additional Interest, if any. If any date on which an interest payment is due is not a Business Day, then the payment of such interest shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a

  

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

10 

 
Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally payable (each such date on
which interest is payable, an “Interest Payment Date”). The amount of interest payable for any period less than a full Interest Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. A
“Business Day” shall mean a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in New York City generally are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. The
interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (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 the calendar day immediately preceding the applicable 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 Note (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 Notes not less than 10 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 Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 

If the principal amount hereof or any portion of such principal amount is not paid when due (whether upon acceleration, upon the date set
for payment of the Redemption Price or upon the Stated Maturity Date) or if interest due hereon (or any portion of such interest), is not paid when due, then in each such case the overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear interest
at the rate then borne by this Note for the applicable Interest Period, compounded at the end of such Interest Period, which interest shall accrue from the date such overdue amount was originally due to the date payment of such amount, including
interest thereon, has been made or duly provided for. All such interest shall be payable as set forth in the Indenture. 
 The
Company shall have the right, at any time during the term of this Note, to defer the payment of interest on this Note, at any time or from time to time, for up to 10 consecutive semi-annual Interest Periods with respect to each deferral period
(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 this Note (together with Additional Interest thereon, to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided that no Extension
Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity Date; provided, further, that if (a) there shall have occurred and be continuing any Event of Default with respect to the Notes; (b) the Company shall have given notice of the
election to defer payments of interest on the Notes but the related Extension Period has not yet commenced; (c) the Company has not paid in full interest scheduled to have been paid on the most recent Interest Payment Date; or (d) any
amount of deferred interest remains unpaid, then the Company shall not: (i) 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, (ii) permit any of its subsidiaries over which the Company has voting control to purchase or acquire or make any other payment or distribution on or with respect to any shares of the Company’s capital stock, (iii) make any
payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities issued by the Company that rank or make any payments under any guarantee that ranks, upon the liquidation of the Company, pari passu
with the Notes (including the Notes, “Parity Securities”) or junior to the Notes, (iv) permit any of its subsidiaries over which the Company has voting control to purchase or acquire or make any other payment on or with
respect to any of the Company’s debt securities or any guarantee that ranks, upon the liquidation of the Company, pari passu with or junior to the Notes; or (v) make any payment under any guarantee by the Company that ranks junior
in interest to 

  

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

11 

 
the Notes (other than (a) any repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of the Company’s capital stock in connection with (1) any employment contract, benefit plan or
other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, (2) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into in the
ordinary course prior to the beginning of the Extension Period, (3) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder purchase plan, or (4) the issuance of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such
capital stock, as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period; (b) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of
one of its Subsidiaries, for any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of its capital stock; (c) any purchase of fractional interests in
shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged; (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any rights plan, or the
issuance of rights, stock or other property under any rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto; (e) any payment of current or deferred interest on Parity Securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such
Parity Securities (including the Notes), and any payments of principal of or deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause us to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities; (f) any dividend in
the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to
such stock; or (g) any purchase or other acquisition of shares of the Company’s capital stock or debt securities (and any related guarantees) or payment with respect to shares of the Company’s capital stock or debt securities (and any
related guarantees) if made in connection with (x) the initial distribution of shares of the Company’s capital stock or debt securities (and any related guarantees) or (y) market-making or other secondary market activities). Prior to
the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further defer the payment of interest on the Notes, provided that no Extension Period shall exceed the period or periods specified in this Note or extend beyond the Stated Maturity
of the principal of this Note. Upon the termination of any such 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 Paying Agent notice of its election to
begin or extend any Extension Period at least 10 Business Days prior to the date on which interest on the Notes would be payable but for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period. The Trustee or its designee shall give notice of the
Company’s election to begin or extend any Extension Period to the Holders of the Notes, to the Administrative Trustees and to the Holders of the Trust Securities. 
 Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note 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 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 in writing not less than 10 days before the date of the interest payment. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by
this Note is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment and upon liquidation to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt, and this Note is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect
thereto. Each Holder of this Note, 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

  

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

12 

 
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 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 Note 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 signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

to be issued in one or more series under the Subordinated Debt Indenture, dated as of February 20, 2004 (herein called the “Original Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the
“Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2007, between the Company and the Trustee, which was amended and supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated
as of February 6, 2012, and the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 9, 2012 (such Second Supplemental Indenture, as so amended and supplemented, the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), each between the
Company and the Trustee (together with the Original Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes, and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. By terms of the Indenture,
the Securities are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest, rank and in other respects provided in the Indenture. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, is a “Security” under
the Indenture and is limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,750,010,000. 
 All terms used in this Note that are defined in

Sponsor, the Trustees named therein and the several Holders of the Trust Securities, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may be. 

Prior to June 1, 2016, the Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes upon the occurrence of an Investment Company
Event or Tax Event at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount thereof and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest (if any), to the date of redemption, in
accordance with Article XI of the Indenture.

SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 

15

and all accrued but unpaid interest of all the Notes to be immediately due and payable, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate liquidation amount of the Trust Securities then outstanding, shall have such right by a notice in writing to the Company
and the Trustee. Upon any such declaration, such amount of the principal of and the accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes shall become immediately due and payable, provided that the payment of principal and interest on the Notes shall
remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article XIV of the Original Indenture, as modified by the Second Supplemental Indenture. Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any
