        the Company or the Guarantors. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or

        take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series; provided
        that none of the Company or any Guarantor may set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If
        any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, 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 Company or any Guarantor 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 cancelled 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 Company or any Guarantor, at its own expense, shall cause notice of
        such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06.

       

      The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of
        (A) any Notice of Default, (B) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.02, (C) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07(b) or (D) any direction referred to in Section 5.11, in each case with respect to
        Securities of such series. If 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 cancelled 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 and the Guarantors in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section
        1.06.

       

      
        12

        
          

      

      With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new
        Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated
        with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to
        its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph.

       

      Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of
        the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

       

      Section 1.05. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Company and
          Guarantors.  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 

       

      (a)  the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company or a Guarantor shall be
          sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing (which may be by facsimile) to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office at the location specified in Section 1.01; or

       

      (b) the Company or a Guarantor 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 or any Guarantor addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company or such
          Guarantor at the address of the Company’s principal office specified in writing to the Trustee by the Company and, until further notice, at 30 Hudson Yards, New York, New York, 10001, fax number: (212) 750-0003, Attention: Chief Financial
          Officer.

       

      The Trustee shall have the right, but shall not be required, to rely upon and comply with instructions and directions sent by e-mail, facsimile and other similar unsecured
        electronic methods by persons believed by the Trustee to be authorized to give instructions and directions on behalf of the Company or a Guarantor. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the person who sent such
        instructions or directions is, in fact, a person authorized to give instructions or directions on behalf of the Company or such Guarantor; and the Trustee shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained
        by the Company or such Guarantor as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such instructions or directions. The Company and each Guarantor agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit
        instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without

       

      
        13

        
          

      

      limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

       

      The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given
        pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Company shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Company whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects
        to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Company understands and agrees that
        the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate
        provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Company shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Company and all Authorized Officers are solely
        responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Company. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or
        indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use
        of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the
        protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Issuer; (iii) that the security
        procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon
        learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.

       

      Section 1.06.  Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to
        Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the
        Security Register, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor
        any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. 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

       

      
        14

        
          

      

      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.

       

      In 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.

       

      Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Security, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Security
        (or its designee), pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary, not later than the latest date, if any, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice.

      Section 1.08. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.  The Article and Section headings
        herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

       

      Section 1.09. Successors and Assigns.  All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by
        the Company and the Guarantors shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

       

      Section 1.10. Separability Clause.  In case any provision in this Indenture or in the
        Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

       

      Section 1.11. Benefits of Indenture.  Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities,
        express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

       

      Section 1.12. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, Venue.  This Indenture, the Securities and the
        Guarantees shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. The Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Indenture, and the
        Company and the Guarantors agree that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Securities, may be instituted in any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in respect of actions
        brought against each such party as a defendant, and each waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such legal suit, action or proceeding, waives any immunity, to the extent permitted by law, from
        jurisdiction or to service of process in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding, waives any right to which it may be entitled on account of place of residence or domicile and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any
        such suit, action or proceeding.

       

      
        15

        
          

      

      
        Section 1.13. Legal Holidays.  In any case where any Interest Payment Date,
          Redemption Date, Repayment Date or Stated Maturity of any Security, or any date on which a Holder has the right to convert such Holder’s Security, shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of
          this Indenture or of the Securities (other than a provision of any Security which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section 1.13)) payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest, or the Redemption Price or
          conversion of such Security, 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, Redemption
          Date or Repayment Date or at the Stated Maturity, or on such conversion date. In the case, however, of Securities of a series bearing interest at a floating rate, if any Interest Payment Date (other than the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or
          Stated Maturity) would otherwise be a date that is not a Business Day, then the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the following date which is a Business Day, unless that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, in which
          case the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. No interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, Stated Maturity or conversion date, as the case
          may be, to the date of such payment.

         

        Section 1.14. No Recourse Against Others.  A director, partner, officer,
          employee, member, manager or stockholder as such of the Company or any Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities, the Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
          reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

         

        Section 1.15.Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS, THE
          TRUSTEE AND THE HOLDERS, BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE SECURITIES, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING AS AMONG THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS AND THE
          TRUSTEE ONLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE SECURITIES OR THE GUARANTEES.

         

        Section 1.16.Compliance with Applicable Law.  In order to comply with
          applicable tax laws, rules and regulations (inclusive of directives, guidelines and interpretations promulgated by competent authorities) in effect from time to time (“Applicable Law”), the Trustee shall be
          entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments under the Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law (and shall timely pay the amounts so withheld or deducted to the applicable governmental authority) for which
          The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. shall not have any liability. Each of the Company and the Trustee agrees to reasonably cooperate and, at the reasonable request of the other, to provide the other with such information as each may
          have in its possession that is necessary to enable the

          Resolution, or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other

          by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Company Order contemplated by Section 3.03 for the authentication and delivery of such Securities. If all of the Securities
          of any series established by action taken pursuant to a Company Resolution are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver a record of such action at the time of issuance of each Security of such series, but an appropriate

        UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY (“DTC”) TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE
          OR 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.

          Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate of the Company setting forth the terms of the series.

         

        Section 3.02.  Denominations.  The Securities of each series shall be
          issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in such denominations as shall be

         

        
          21

          
            

        

        specified as contemplated by Section 3.01. In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of
          $1,000 in excess thereof.

         

        Section 3.03.   Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.  The
          Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one of its Officers. The signature on the Securities may be manual, electronic or facsimile.

         

        Securities bearing the manual, facsimile or electronic 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 Company Resolutions or pursuant to authority granted by one or more Company Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under
          this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to Section 6.01, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

         

        (a)              if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Company Resolution or pursuant to authority granted by one
          or more Company Resolutions as permitted by Section 2.01, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

         

        (b)              if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Company Resolution or pursuant to authority granted by
          one or more Company Resolutions as permitted by Section 3.01, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

         

        (c)              that such Securities and the related Guarantees, when the Securities are authenticated by the Trustee and issued and delivered 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 and each Guarantor, respectively, enforceable against the Company and each
          Guarantor, respectively, in accordance with their terms, subject to (1) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (2)
          general equitable principles and (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

         

        
          22

          
            

        

        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 adversely 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 3.01 and of the preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, except in the event that the aggregate
          principal amount of a series of Outstanding Securities is increased as contemplated by Section 3.01, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers’ Certificate of the Company otherwise required pursuant to Section 3.01 or the Company Order
          and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to this Section 3.03 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.

         

        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 manual or electronic signature, 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 3.09, 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 3.04.  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 authorized
          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 Officer or Officers executing such
          Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution thereof.

         

        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 of such series,
          the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for such series, without
          charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the

         

        
          23

          
            

        

        same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. 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 and tenor.

         

        Section 3.05.  Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.  The
          Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively 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 Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is
          hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

         

        Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of a series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for such series, 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 and of like tenor and principal amount.

         

        At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount, 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 registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company and the respective Guarantors, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same
          benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

         

        Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
          form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

         

        No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company or the Trustee 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 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 not involving any transfer.

         

        If the Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange
          any Securities of such series (or of such series and specified tenor, as the case

         

        
          24

          
            

        

        may be) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of
          such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

         

        Neither the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable
          law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and
          other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements
          hereof.

         

        The provisions of clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this paragraph shall apply only to Global Securities:

         

        (a)              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.

         

        (b)              Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, and subject to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified as
          contemplated by Section 3.01, 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 (3) such Depositary has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable or no longer permitted under applicable law to continue as Depositary for such Global Security and a successor Depositary
          is not appointed within 90 days, (4) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security, (5) subject to the Applicable Procedures, the Company so directs the Trustee by a Company Order or (6)
          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 3.01.

         

        (c)              Subject to clause (b) above and to such applicable provisions, if any, as may be specified as
          contemplated by Section 3.01, 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.

         

        (d)              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 3.05, Section 3.04, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such

         

        
          25

          
            

        

        Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

         

        Section 3.06.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.  If any
          mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
          contemporaneously outstanding.

         

        If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) 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 has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
          deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount, 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 3.06, 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 counsel to the Company and the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its counsel) connected therewith.

         

        Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and the
          respective Guarantors, whether or not the mutilated, 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 of such series and Guarantees duly issued hereunder.

         

        The provisions of this Section 3.06 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 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.  Except as
          otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any 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 at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

         

        Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted

         

        
          26

          
            

        

        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
            (a) or (b) below:

         

        (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest payable on Securities of a series to the Persons in whose names the Securities
          of such series (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 of such series 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 given to each Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, 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 so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of
          such series (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 (b).

         

        (b) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series 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 such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such
          manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

         

        Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, 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.

         

        In the case of any Security which is converted after any Regular Record Date and on or prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (other than any Security whose Maturity is prior to such Interest Payment
          Date), interest whose Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion, and such interest (whether or not punctually paid or made available for payment) shall be paid
          to the Person in whose name that Security (or

         

        
          27

          
            

        

        one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in the case of any Security which is converted, interest
          whose Stated Maturity is after the date of conversion of such Security shall not be payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of any Security that may be converted may provide that the provisions of this paragraph do not apply, or apply
          with such additions, changes or omissions as may be provided thereby, to such Security.

         

        Section 3.08.   Persons Deemed Owners.  Prior to due presentment of a
          Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose
          of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and, subject to Section 3.07, any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Guarantors, the
          Trustee nor any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         

        Section 3.09.  Cancellation.  All Securities surrendered for payment,
          redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The
          Company or any Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or such Guarantor may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to
          the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the
          Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed
          of in accordance with its customary procedures. The Trustee shall provide the Company or any Guarantor a list of all Securities that have been cancelled from time to time as requested, in writing, by the Company or such Guarantor.

         

        Section 3.10.  Computation of Interest.  Except as otherwise specified as
          contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

         

        Section 3.11.   CUSIP or ISIN Numbers.  The Company in issuing any series
          of the Securities may use “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers and/or other similar numbers, if then generally in use, and thereafter with respect to such series, the Trustee may use such numbers in any notice of redemption with respect to such series; 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 of such series 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 of such series, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly make the Trustee
          aware of any changes to the “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers.

         

        
          28

          
            

        

        
        Section 3.12.  Original Issue Discount.  If any of the Securities is an
          Original Issue Discount Security, the Company shall file with the Trustee promptly at the end of each calendar year iv) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on such
          Outstanding Original Issue Discount Securities as of the end of such year and v) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code.

         

        Section 3.13.  General Provisions Relating to Global Securities.  Owners of
          beneficial interests in the Securities evidenced by a Global Security will not be entitled to any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security, and the Depositary or its nominee may be treated by the Company, the Guarantors,
          and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantors or the Trustee, including any Security Registrar or Paying Agent as the owner and Holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Guarantors, the
          Trustee, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent or any other agent of the Company, the Guarantors or of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial
          ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. None of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Security Registrar, the Paying Agent or any
          other agent of the Company, the Guarantors or of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability to any person for any acts or omissions of the Depositary or its nominee in respect of a Global Security, for the records of any such
          Depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of such Global Security, for any transactions between such Depositary and any participant or indirect participant in such Depositary or between or among such
          Depositary, any participant or indirect participant in such Depositary and/or any Holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Security, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Security. Notwithstanding the
          foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, the Security Registrar or the Paying Agent or such agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or its nominee or
          impair, as between the Depositary or its nominee and such owners of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary or its nominee as Holder of any Global Security.

        Satisfaction and Discharge

         

        Section 4.01.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.  This Indenture
          shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such series herein
          expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series, when:

         

        (a)                 either

         

        
          29

          
            

        

        (i)          all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities which have been
          mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter
          repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

         

        (ii)          all such Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

         

        (A)          have become due and payable, or

         

        (B)          will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year of the date of deposit, or

         

        (C)          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 (A), (B) or (C) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose money in an amount sufficient to
          pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and premium, if any, and interest 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;

         

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

         

        (c)                the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Company 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 Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with
          respect to Securities of such series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met.

         

        Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii)
          of clause (a) of this Section 4.01, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive.

        (h)          any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of such series occurs.

         

        The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or other similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

         

        A Default with respect to Securities of any series under clause (d) of this Section 5.01 shall not be an Event of Default until the Trustee (by written notice to the Company and the
          Guarantors) or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series (by written notice to the Company and the Guarantors and the Trustee) gives notice of the Default and the Company and the
          Guarantors does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (d) after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”

         

        The Trustee is not to be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or knowledge of any cure of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of such Default or Event of Default has been given
          to a Reasonable Officer of the Trustee by the Company or any Holder.

         

        Section 5.02.   Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.  If an
          Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or (f) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or
          the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series may declare the principal amount of all the Securities of such series (or, if any Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount
          Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company and the
          Guarantors (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration, such principal amount (or specified amount), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of
          Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or (f) with respect to the Company occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of such series (or, in the case of any Security of such series which specifies an amount to be due and payable thereon upon
          acceleration of the Maturity thereof, such amount as may be specified by the terms thereof), together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any
          Holder, become immediately due and payable. Upon payment of such amount, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of principal and interest of the Securities of such series shall terminate.

         

        Except as may otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 3.01 for all or any specific Securities of any series, at any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Securities of any series has
          been made and before a judgment or decree for

         

        
          33

          
            

        

        payment of the money due based on such acceleration has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article 5 provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, by written
          notice to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

         

        (a)          the Company or any Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

         

        (i)          all overdue interest on all Securities of such series,

         

        (ii)         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 any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in the Securities of such series,

         

        (iii)        to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates
          prescribed therefor in such Securities, and

         

        (iv)         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

         

        (b)          all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, other than the nonpayment of the principal of Securities of such
          series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

         

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

         

        Section 5.03.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

          The Company covenants that if (a) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or (b) default is made in the payment of the principal
          of or 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 and premium, if any, and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor 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 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

         

        
          34

          
            

        

        proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary 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 5.04.  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, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the
          Company, any Guarantor 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 or any Guarantor for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

         

        (a)          to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and premium, if any, and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
          Securities 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 and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

         

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

         

        and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by the Holder 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, 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 for any other
          amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.

         

        No provision of this Indenture 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 5.05.  Trustee May Enforce Claims 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 the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
          Trustee, any predecessor Trustee under

          Trustee pursuant to this Article 5, and any money or other property distributable in respect of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture after the occurrence of an Event of Default, 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 or premium, if any, or 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 (including any predecessor Trustee) under Section 6.07;

         

        SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Securities 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 Securities for principal and premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and

         

        THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company or the Guarantors.

          Section 5.08, no Holder of any Security 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 or sequestrator (or
          similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

          respect to the Securities of such series;

         

        (b)          the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such 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;

         

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

         

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

          majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series;

         

        
          36

          
            

        

        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 to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such
          Holders, 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 of such Holders.

          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 5.10.   Delay or Omission Not Waiver.  No delay or omission of the
          Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities 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 5 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

          majority in aggregate 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:

         

        (a)          such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture and shall not involve the Trustee in any personal
          liability, and

         

        (b)          the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

         

        
          37

          
            

        

        Before proceeding to exercise any right or power hereunder at the direction of the Holders, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive from such Holders security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the
          costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

          majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past Default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a

          each Outstanding Security of such series affected,

         

        provided that there
            had been paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all amounts due to the Trustee and to reimburse the Trustee for any and all fees, expenses and disbursements advanced by the Trustee, its agents and its counsel incurred in
            connection with such Default or Event of Default.

         

        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 5.13.  Undertaking for Costs.  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, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and
          may assess reasonable costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section 5.13 nor the Trust Indenture Act shall
          be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee, a suit by a Holder under Section 5.08, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in
          aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities.

         

        Section 5.14.   Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.  Each of the
          Company and the Guarantors 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 each of the Company and the Guarantors (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,

         

        

        
          38

          
            

        

        but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

         

        Section 5.15.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies.  If the Trustee or any
          Holder 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, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the
          Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

         

        ARTICLE 6

        The Trustee

         

        Section 6.01.  Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.  (a) Except
          during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities,

         

        (i)          the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture
          with respect to the Securities of such series, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee with respect to such series; and

         

        (ii)         in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely with respect to the Securities of such
          series, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates
          or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not
          confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein).

         

        (b)          In case an Event of Default with respect to any series of Securities has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such
          of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
          of his or her own affairs.

         

        (c)          No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own
          negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

         

        (i)          this Section 6.01(c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(d);

         

        
          39

          
            

        

        (ii)         the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it
          shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

         

        (iii)        the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
          accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, determined as provided in Sections 1.01, 1.04 and 5.11, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any
          proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series.

         

        (d)          No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability
          in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
          reasonably assured to it.

         

        (e)          Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of
          or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.01.

         

        Section 6.02.  Notice of Defaults.  If a Default occurs with respect to
          Securities of any series and is continuing and written notice of such Default has been received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, the Trustee shall give to each Holder of Securities of such
          series notice of Default within 90 days after such written notice is received by such Responsible Officer. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Security, the Trustee may withhold notice if and so long as a
          committee of Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of Holders of Securities of such series.

         

        Section 6.03.  Certain Rights of Trustee.  Subject

          to the provisions of Section 6.01:

         

        (a)          the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall fully be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
          statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
          party or parties;

         

        (b)          any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order, and
          any resolution of the member or members of the Company or board of managers of the Company, as the case may be, shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Resolution thereof;

         

        (c)          whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
          taking, suffering or omitting any

         

        
          40

          
            

        

        action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate of the Company or the Guarantors;

         

        (d)          the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and
          complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

         

        (e)          the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or
          direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in
          compliance with such request or direction;

         

        (f)          the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
          instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into
          such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company or the Guarantors, personally or by agent
          or attorney at the sole cost of the Company or the Guarantors and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

         

        (g)          the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents
          or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

         

        (h)          the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
          indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each agent employed to act hereunder;

         

        (i)          the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by
          it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

         

        (j)          anything in this Indenture notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive or
          consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action;

         

        (k)          in no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder
          arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work

         

        
          41

          
            

        

        stoppages, pandemics or epidemics, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software
          and hardware) services (it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances);

         

        (l)          the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless written notice of such Default or Event of
          Default, as the case may be, has been received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the Company or any Holder, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture;

         

        (m)          the Trustee may request that the Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of
          officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any
          such certificate previously delivered and not superseded; and

         

        (n)          the permissive right of the Trustee to take or refrain from taking action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

         

        Section 6.04.  Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.  The
          recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
          correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities or the Guarantees. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the
          proceeds thereof.

         

        Section 6.05.  May Hold Securities.  The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any
          Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company or the Guarantors, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 6.08 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company and the
          Guarantors with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

         

        Section 6.06.  Money Held in Trust.  Money held by the Trustee in trust
          hereunder shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability
          for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

         

        Section 6.07.  Compensation and Reimbursement.  The Company and each
          Guarantor jointly and severally agrees:

         

        
          42

          
            

        

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

         

        (b)          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 and all Persons not regularly in its
          employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith, and the Trustee shall provide the Company reasonable notice of any expenditure not in the ordinary course of
          business; and

         

        (c)          to indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee and their officers, agents, directors and employees for, and to hold them
          harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with this Indenture, the Securities and the transactions contemplated hereby and
          thereby, including the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, or any Holder or any other Person) or
          liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Section.

         

        In addition to, but without prejudice to its other rights under this Indenture, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section
          5.01(e) or (f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency
          or other similar law.

         

        “Trustee” for purposes of this Section shall include any predecessor Trustee; provided, however, that the negligence, willful misconduct or bad
          faith of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of any other Trustee hereunder.

         

        As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected
          by it hereunder for any amount owing it or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.07, except with respect to funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities for the payment of principal of and premium, if
          any, or interest.

         

        The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of the Securities, the termination for any reason of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

         

        
          43

          
            

        

        Section 6.08.  Conflicting Interests.  If the Trustee has or shall acquire
          a conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the
          provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture.

         

        To the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series
          or under the Indenture dated as of September 29, 2010, among KKR Group Finance Co. LLC, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, under the Indenture dated as of February 1, 2013, among KKR

        Section 6.09.  Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.  There shall at all
          times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series, which may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust
          Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and has its Corporate Trust Office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania or any other major city in the United States
          that is acceptable to the Company. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.09 and to the extent
          permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent annual report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with
          respect to the Securities of any series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.09, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 6.

         

        
          44

          
            

        

        Section 6.10.  Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.  No
          resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of
          Section 6.11.

         

        The Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed 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 6.11 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 the Securities of such series.

         

        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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, upon written notice
          delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 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.

         

        If at any time:

         

        (a)          the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company, the Guarantors or any Holder who
          has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months,

         

        (b)          the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company, the
          Guarantors or any such Holder, or

         

        (c)          the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a
          voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, 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, (1) the Company or the Guarantors may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities or (2) subject to Section 5.13, Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of
          Securities of any series who have been bona fide Holders of such Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
          jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

         

        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 or the
          Guarantors shall promptly appoint a successor

         

        
          45

          
            

        

        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 6.11. 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 aggregate 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 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the
          Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company or the Guarantors. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company, the
          Guarantors or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of Securities of any series who have been bona fide Holders of
          Securities of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of themselves 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.

         

        The Company or the Guarantors 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 to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 1.06.

         

        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 6.11.   Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.  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, the Guarantors and the retiring Trustee a written 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, the Guarantors or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver a written 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 nonetheless to the lien provided for in Section
          6.07.

         

        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 Guarantors, 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 (a) shall contain such provisions as

         

        
          46

          
            

        

        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, (b) 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 (c) 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 and 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 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 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, the Guarantors or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all 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 subject nonetheless to the lien provided for in Section 6.07.

         

        Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company and the Guarantors 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 the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be.

         

        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 6.

         

        Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Company shall transmit notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder by mail, first class
          postage prepaid, to the Holders, as their names and addresses appear upon the Security Register. If the Company fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall
          cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense of the Company.

         

        Section 6.12.   Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 

          Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or
          substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 6, 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

         

        
          47

          
            

        

        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; and in case at that time any Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
          successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

         

        Section 6.13.  Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.  If and
          when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company or any Guarantor (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the
          Company or any Guarantor (or any such other obligor).

         

        Section 6.14.  Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company.

          this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such
          application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than 10 Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in
          writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or
          omitted.

          Commission (if accepted for filing by the Commission) and the Company. The Company will notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on any stock exchange or automated quotation system or delisted therefrom.

         

        Section 7.04.  Reports by the Company and the Guarantors.  Delivery of
          reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the reports, information and documents. The Trustee’s receipt of such
          shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s or the Guarantors’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee
          is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates of the Company).

        (g)          modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.02, Section 5.12 or Section 10.05, except to increase any such percentage or to
          provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause

        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 under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance

          precedent in this Indenture to the execution of such supplemental indenture, if any, have been complied with; provided, however, that no such Opinion of Counsel shall be required in the case of any
          supplemental indenture executed and delivered concurrently with the original execution and delivery 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.

         

        Section 9.04.   Effect of Supplemental Indentures.  Upon the execution of

          thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

          any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

         

        Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article 9 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 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.

          Agent, the segregated account or separate trust fund maintained by the Company or such Subsidiary pursuant to Section 10.03) holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal, premium and interest then due.

         

        The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful as provided in
          Section 3.07.

         

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors or the Paying Agent may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar
          taxes imposed by the United States of America or other domestic or foreign taxing authorities from principal, premium or interest payments hereunder.

         

        Section 10.02.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 may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, where
          Securities may be surrendered for conversion, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such series and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the
          location, and any change in the

         

        
          54

          
            

        

        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. 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 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 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 or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

         

        With respect to any Global Security, and except as otherwise may be specified for such Global Security as contemplated by Section 3.01, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the Place of Payment where
          such Global Security may be presented or surrendered for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Securities may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that
          any such payment, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary for such Global Security shall be deemed to have been effected at the Place of Payment for such Global Security in accordance
          with the provisions of this Indenture.

         

        Section 10.03.Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.  If the
          Company shall at any time act as Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date for the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust
          for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities a sum sufficient to pay the principal and premium, if any, and interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Holders 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, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each due date for the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on
          any Securities of such series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such amount, such sum to be held in trust for the Holders of such Securities entitled to the same, 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 10.03, that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities and shall
          notify the Trustee in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment and that it shall any time during the continuance of such

         

        
          55

          
            

        

        default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held 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 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.

         

        Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, 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 or premium, if any, or interest on
          any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium 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 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.

         

        Section 10.04. Statement by Officers as to Default.  The Company shall
          deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof an Officers’ Certificate of the Company and one of the two Officers signing must be the Company’s principal executive officer,
          principal financial officer or principal accounting officer, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of such Officer, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this
          Indenture applicable to it (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which such Officer may have
          knowledge.

         

        The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default an Officers’ Certificate setting
          forth the details of such Default or Event of Default, its status and the actions which the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

         

        Section 10.05.Waiver of Certain Covenants.  Except as otherwise specified as
          contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of such series, the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set
          forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 3.01(r), Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(l) for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in Article 8, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at
          least a majority in aggregate 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

         

        
          56

          
            

        

        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 or the Guarantors, as the case
          may be, and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

         

        Section 10.06. No Conflicts with Sanctions Law. Neither the Company nor the Guarantors nor, to the
          knowledge of the Company and the Guarantors, any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of the Company or the Guarantors, is a Person that is, or is owned or controlled by a Person that is, currently subject to any sanctions (“Sanctions”) administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and each of the Company and the Guarantors represents and covenants that they will not, directly or
          indirectly, use the proceeds of the offering of the Securities hereunder, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any of the Company or the Guarantors, joint venture partner or other Person for the purpose of financing
          the activities of any person that is the subject of Sanctions.

         

        ARTICLE 11

        Redemption of Securities

         

        Section 11.01. Applicability of Article.  Securities of any series which
          are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such Securities) in accordance with this Article 11.

         

        Section 11.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.  The election of the
          Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Company Resolution or an Officers’ Certificate of the Company or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election
          of the Company of the Securities of any series (including any such redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 15 days prior to the date any notice of a redemption is to be given to the Holders pursuant to Section
          11.04 (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities 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 or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’
          Certificate of the Company evidencing compliance with such restriction.

         

        Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee 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, including by
          lot or pro rata, and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of such series; provided

         

        
          57

          
            

        

        that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as the Securities of any series are represented by one or more Global Securities,
          beneficial interests in such Securities shall be selected for redemption by the Depositary therefor in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

         

        If any 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 in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in case of any Securities selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount
          thereof to be redeemed.

         

        The provisions of the three preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in
          part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

         

        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 amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

         

        Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption.  Notice of redemption shall be
          transmitted not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date (or within such period as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities of a series), to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at such
          Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register.

         

        All notices of redemption shall identify the Securities to be redeemed and shall state:

         

        (a)          the Redemption Date;

         

        (b)          the Redemption Price (or the method of calculating such price);

         

        
          58

          
            

        

        (c)          if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of more than a single Security are to be redeemed, the
          identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any such Securities, the respective principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed and, if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of a single
          Security are to be redeemed, the principal amount of the particular Security to be redeemed;

         

        (d)          that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if
          applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date;

         

        (e)          the place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;

         

        (f)          for any Securities that by their terms may be converted, the terms of conversion, the date on which the right to convert the Security
          to be redeemed will terminate and the place or places where such Securities may be surrendered for conversion;

         

        (g)          that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case; and

         

        (h)          if applicable, the CUSIP, ISIN or any similar numbers of the Securities of such series; provided,
            however, that no representation will be made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or any similar number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities.

         

        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 (which may be rescinded or revoked at any time prior to the time at which
          the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. The notice, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the
          Holder receives such notice. In any case, 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 Securities.

         

        Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price.  By no later than 10:00 a.m.
          (New York City time) on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if any of the Credit Parties is acting as Paying Agent, such Credit Party will segregate and hold in
          trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date or the Securities of the series provide otherwise) accrued interest on, all the
          Securities which are to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption which are owned by any of the Credit Parties and have been delivered by such Credit Party to the Trustee for cancellation. All
          money, if any, earned on funds held by the Paying Agent shall be remitted to the Company.  In addition, the Paying Agent shall promptly return to

         

        
          59

          
            

        

        the Company any money deposited with the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest, if any, on, all Securities to be redeemed.

         

        If any Security called for redemption is converted, any money deposited with the Trustee or with any Paying Agent or so segregated and held in trust for the redemption of such Security shall (subject to any right of
          the Holder of such Security or any Predecessor Security to receive interest as provided in the last paragraph of Section 3.07 or in the terms of such Security) be paid to the Company upon Company Request or, if then held by the Company, shall be
          discharged from such trust.

         

        Section 11.06. 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. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together,
          if applicable, with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, 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
          3.07.

         

        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 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part.  Any Security which is to be
          redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (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 such Holder’s 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 Security or Securities of the
          same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

         

        ARTICLE 12

        Sinking Funds

         

        Section 12.01.Applicability of Article.  The provisions of this Article 12
          shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for such Securities.

         

        
          60

          
            

        

        The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any series of Securities 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 such Securities is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment.” If provided for by the terms of any series of Securities, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as
          provided in Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of the series as provided for by the terms of such Securities.

         

        Section 12.02.Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities.  The
          Company (a) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (b) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms
          of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such
          series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities; 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, 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 12.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund.  Not less than 60
          days (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Company 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 and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and
          crediting Securities pursuant to Section 12.02 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior to 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 11.03 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 11.04. Such notice having been duly
          given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

         

        ARTICLE 13

        Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

         

        Section 13.01.Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
          Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01, Sections 13.02 and 13.03 shall apply to all Securities and each series of Securities, denominated in U.S. dollars and bearing interest at a fixed rate, in
          accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 3.01 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 13; and the Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have Section 13.02

         

        
          61

          
            

        

        and Section 13.03 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, designated pursuant to Section 3.01 as being defeasible pursuant to such Section 13.02 and Section 13.03, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant
          to Section 3.01 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 13. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Company Resolution, Officers’ Certificate of the Company or in another manner specified as contemplated by
          Section 3.01 for such Securities.

         

        Section 13.02.Defeasance and Discharge.  Upon the Company’s exercise of its
          option, if any, to have this Section 13.02 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, or if this Section 13.02 shall otherwise apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have
          been discharged from their respective obligations with respect to such Securities and related Guarantees as provided in this Section 13.02 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that each of the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and
          Guarantees and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and Guarantees and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and Guarantees are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company or the Guarantors, as the
          case may be, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust
          fund described in Section 13.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section 13.05, payments in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities when payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to
          such Securities and the Guarantors’ obligations with respect to such Guarantees under Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 10.02 and 10.03, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (d)
          this Article 13. Subject to compliance with this Article 13, the Company or the Guarantors may exercise their option, if any, to have this Section 13.02 applied to the Securities of any series and the related Guarantees notwithstanding the prior
          exercise of its option, if any, to have Section 13.03 applied to such Securities and Guarantees.

         

        Section 13.03.Covenant Defeasance.  Upon the Company’s exercise of its
          option, if any, to have this Section 13.03 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, or if this Section 13.03 shall otherwise apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, (a) the Company and the Guarantors shall be released
          from their respective obligations under Section 8.01 and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 3.01(r), Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(l) for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and (b) the occurrence of any event specified in
          Section 5.01(d) and Section 5.01(h) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to such Securities and Guarantees as provided in this Section 13.03 on and after the date the conditions set forth in
          Section 13.04 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such Securities and Guarantees, each of the Company and the
          Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference
          elsewhere

         

        
          62

          
            

        

        herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such
          Securities and Guarantees shall be unaffected thereby.

         

        Section 13.04.Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.  The
          following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 13.02 or 13.03 to any Securities or any series of Securities:

         

        (a)          The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the
          requirements contemplated by Section 6.09 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article 13 applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated
          solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (i) money in an amount, or (ii) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance
          with their terms will provide money in an amount, or (iii) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to
          the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Securities to the respective Stated Maturities or
          Redemption Dates, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used herein, “U.S. Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is (A) a direct
          obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (B) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of
          the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (A) or (B), is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer
          thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is
          specified in clause (x) above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any U.S. Government Obligation
          which is so specified and held; provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any
          amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.

         

        (b)          In the event of an election to have Section 13.02 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, the Company shall have
          delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the
          applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (i) or (ii) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a
          result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at

         

        
          63

          
            

        

        the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

         

        (c)          In the event of an election to have Section 13.03 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, the Company shall have
          delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with
          respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.

         

        (d)          The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Company to the effect that neither such Securities
          nor any other Securities of the same series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will be delisted as a result of such deposit.

         

        (e)          No Default or Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the
          time of such deposit or, insofar as Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f) are concerned, at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such
          90th day).

         

        (f)          Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other
          material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

         

        (g)          The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate of the Company and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that
          all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with (in each case, subject to the satisfaction of the condition in clause (e)).

         

        Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Securities at a future date in accordance with Article 11.

         

        Section 13.05.Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust;
            Miscellaneous Provisions.  Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for
          purposes of this Section 13.05 and Section 13.06, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 13.04 in respect of any Securities shall be held
          in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
          determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and premium, if any, and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
          law.

         

        
          64

          
            

        

        The Company and each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to
          Section 13.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities; provided that
          the Trustee shall be entitled to charge any such tax, fee or other charge to such Holder’s account.

         

        Anything in this Article 13 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in
          Section 13.04 with respect to any Securities which are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities.

         

        Section 13.06.Reinstatement.  If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable
          to apply any money in accordance with this Article 13 with respect to any Securities by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations
          under this Indenture and such Securities and Guarantees from which the Company and the Guarantors have been discharged or released pursuant to Section 13.02 or 13.03 shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to
          this Article 13 with respect to such Securities and Guarantees, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 13.05 with respect to such Securities and Guarantees in accordance
          with this Article 13; provided, however, that (a) if the Company or the Guarantors makes any payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any such Security following such reinstatement of
          its obligations, the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights, if any, of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money so held in trust and (b) unless otherwise required by any
          legal proceeding or any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall return all such money and U.S. Government Obligations to the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, promptly after
          receiving a written request therefor at any time, if such reinstatement of the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors, as the case may be, has occurred and continues to be in effect.

         

        ARTICLE 14

        Guarantee of Securities

         

        Section 14.01.Guarantee.  Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally and
          fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee hereunder, and to the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder, the due and punctual payment in full of the principal of and premium, if
          any, and interest on such Security and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or
          otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by law) interest, if any, on such Security (collectively, the

         

        
          65

          
            

        

        “Obligations”), in accordance with the terms of such Security and this Indenture. If the Company shall fail to pay when due any Obligations, for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be jointly and
          severally obligated to pay in cash the same promptly. An Event of Default under this Indenture or the Security of any series shall entitle the Holders of such Securities to accelerate the Obligations of the Guarantors hereunder in the same manner
          and to the same extent as the Obligations of the Company.

         

        Section 14.02.Additional Guarantors.  The Company and each Guarantor shall
          cause each New KKR Entity (other than a Non-Guarantor Entity) to become a Guarantor pursuant to this Indenture and provide a Guarantee in respect of the Securities.

         

        Section 14.03.Waiver.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
          each Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, any requirement that the Trustee or any of the Holders exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or any other Person, filing of claims with a
          court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect to any Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and
          covenants that no Guarantee will be discharged in respect of any Security except by complete performance of the Obligations contained in such Security and in this Article.

         

        Section 14.04.Guarantee of Payment.  Each Guarantee shall constitute a
          guarantee of payment when due and not a guarantee of collection. The Guarantors hereby agree that, in the event of a default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Security, whether at its Stated Maturity, by
          declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture, directly against
          the Guarantors to enforce the Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company.

         

        Section 14.05.No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee.  Subject to Section
          14.10, the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and not be subject to any reduction, limitation, termination or impairment for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Obligations),
          including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality
          or unenforceability of the Securities, this Indenture or the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected
          by the failure of the Trustee or any Holder of the Securities to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture or any Security, any other guarantee or any other agreement, by any waiver, modification or indulgence of
          any provision thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, by any release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 14.10 or by any other act or omission or delay to do any other act
          that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than

         

        
          66

          
            

        

        the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantors,
          increase the principal amount of such Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, change any redemption provisions thereof (including any change to increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof) or change the Stated Maturity of any
          payment thereon, or increase the principal amount of any Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration or the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 of this Indenture.

         

        Section 14.06.Defenses of Company Waived.  To the extent permitted by
          applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Company or any other Guarantor or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause
          of the liability of the Company, other than final payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Each of the Guarantors waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates to impair or to extinguish any right of
          reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of each of the Guarantors against the Company or any security.

         

        Section 14.07.Continued Effectiveness.  Subject to Section 14.10, each of
          the Guarantors further agrees that its Guarantee with respect to any Security hereunder shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be irrevocable notwithstanding any petition filed by or against the Company for liquidation or
          reorganization, the Company becoming insolvent or making an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a receiver or trustee being appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
          law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Trustee or any Holder of
          any Security, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” upon bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made, until the date upon which the entire Obligation,
          if any, and interest on such Security has been, or has been deemed pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture to have been paid in full. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned on any
          Security, such Security shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed paid only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

         

        Section 14.08. Subrogation.  In furtherance of the foregoing and not in
          limitation of any other right of each of the Guarantors by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, each of the Guarantors hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written
          demand by the Trustee or any Holder of the Securities of any series, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Holders in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligations, and thereupon the Holders shall, assign (except to the extent that such
          assignment would render a Guarantor a “creditor” of the Company within the meaning of Section 547 of Title 11 of the United States Code as now in effect or hereafter amended or any comparable provision of any
          successor statute) the amount of the Obligations owed to it and paid by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee to such Guarantor, such assignment to be pro rata to the extent the

         

        
          67

          
            

        

        Obligations in question were discharged by such Guarantor, or make such other disposition thereof as such Guarantor shall direct (all without recourse to the Holders, and without any representation or warranty by the Holders).  If (a) a
          Guarantor shall make payment to the Holders of all or any part of the Obligations and (b) all the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Indenture shall be paid in full, the Trustee will, at such Guarantor’s request, execute and
          deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment by such
          Guarantor.

         

        Section 14.09.Subordination.  Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to
          the Holders, as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Company, arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment
          in full in cash of all the Obligations to the Trustee; provided, however, that any right of subrogation that such Guarantor may have pursuant to this Indenture is subject to Section 14.08.

         

        Section 14.10.Release of Guarantor and Termination of Guarantee.  A
          Guarantor shall, upon the occurrence of any of the following events, be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations under this Indenture and its Guarantee without any action required on the part of the Trustee
          or any Holder; provided that such Guarantor would not, immediately after such release and discharge, be required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 14.02:

         

        (a)          at any time such Guarantor is not the Corporation and is sold or disposed of (whether by merger, consolidation or the sale of all or
          substantially all of its assets) to an entity that is not required to become a Guarantor, if such sale or disposition is otherwise in compliance with this Indenture;

         

        (b)          such Guarantor is designated a Non-Guarantor Entity in accordance with this Indenture; or

         

        (c)          the Company effects a Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 13 hereof.

         

        The Company may designate any Person as a “Non-Guarantor Entity” if (i) such Person is directly or indirectly wholly owned by one or more of the Credit Parties and (ii) such
          Person, together with all then-existing Non-Guarantor Entities designated pursuant to this clause (ii) on a combined and consolidated basis and taken as a whole, would not constitute a Significant Subsidiary (the foregoing, the “Non-Guarantor Limitation”). The Company may also, from time to time, remove the designation of any Person as a Non-Guarantor Entity and must remove the designation as to one or more Non-Guarantor Entities
          designated pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence to the extent as of the end of any fiscal quarter such Non-Guarantor Entities exceed the Non-Guarantor Limitation. Any such designation or removal by the Company shall be
          evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a Company Resolution giving effect to such designation or removal, and in the case of a designation,

         

        
          68

          
            

        

        a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company (or, in his or her absence, the principal executive officer, principal accounting officer or treasurer of the Company) certifying that such designation complied with the foregoing
          provisions. The Company shall promptly file with the Trustee a notice of any such release of a Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture.

         

        The Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release upon receipt of a request of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate certifying as to the compliance with this Section.

         

        Section 14.11. Limitation of Guarantors’ Liability.  Each Guarantor, and by
          its acceptance hereof each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee by such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Title 11 of the United States Code, the
          Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Guarantor. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and such Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree
          that the obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture and its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum aggregate amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, and after giving effect to
          any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of, any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, will result in the obligations of
          such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting such fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

         

        Each Guarantee is expressly limited so that in no event, including the acceleration of the Maturity of the Securities, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in respect of interest on the Securities (or fees or
          other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) exceed the maximum permissible amount under applicable law, as in effect on the date hereof and as subsequently amended or modified to allow a greater amount of interest (or fees or other amounts
          deemed payment for the use of funds) to be paid under such Guarantee. If for any reason the amount in respect of interest (or fees or other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) required by a Guarantee exceeds such maximum permissible
          amount, the obligation to pay interest under such Guarantee (or fees or other amounts deemed payment for the use of funds) shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount and any amounts collected by any Holder of any Security
          in excess of the permissible amount shall be automatically applied to reduce the outstanding principal on such Security.

         

        Section 14.12.No Obligation to Take Action Against the Company.  Neither the
          Trustee, any Holder nor any other Person shall have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or take any other steps under any security for the Obligations or against the Company or any other Person or any property of the
          Company or any other Person before the Trustee, such Holder or such other Person is entitled to demand payment and performance by any or all Guarantors of their liabilities and obligations under their Guarantee.

         

        
          69

          
            

        

        Section 14.13. Execution and Delivery.  To evidence its Guarantee set forth
          in this Article 14, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer of such Guarantor, and in the case of any New KKR Entity that becomes a Guarantor in accordance with this Indenture,
          such New KKR Entity’s Guarantee shall be evidenced by the execution and delivery on behalf of such New KKR Entity of a supplemental indenture hereto by an Officer of such New KKR Entity.

         

        Section 14.14.Reorganization Agreement.  In connection with the
          consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement, the obligation of the Corporation to be a Guarantor may be terminated in the event that the new parent holding company for the Credit Group’s business (“New KKR Parent”) elects to become a Guarantor, in which case all references to the Corporation in this Indenture shall be deemed to be replaced by references to New KKR Parent.

         

        Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in this Article 14 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on any Securities.

         

        If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates any Security, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless.

         

        The delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

      RECITALS OF THE COMPANY

       

      The Company and the Guarantors have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee the Base Indenture providing for the issuance from time to time of one or more series of the Company’s senior

        Guarantees thereof by the Guarantors;

       

      Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture provides, among other things, that the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may enter into indentures supplemental to the Base Indenture for, among other things,
        the purposes of (a) establishing the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Base Indenture and (b) adding to or changing any of the provisions to the Base Indenture in certain circumstances; and

       

      The Company desires to create five series of Securities designated as its “1.054% Senior Notes due 2027” (the “2027 Notes”), “1.244% Senior Notes due 2029” (the

      Each Guarantor has duly authorized its Guarantee of the Notes and to provide therefor each Guarantor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture.

       

      All things necessary have been done to make this First Supplemental Indenture a valid and legally binding agreement of the Company, in accordance with its terms and to make the Notes, when executed by
        the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee under the Indenture and duly issued by the Company, the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company.

        includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, The Bank of New
        York Mellon, London Branch (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any successor paying agent under the Indenture) and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
        authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2027 Notes Outstanding at any time may not exceed ¥36,400,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Sections
        3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture and except for any Notes which, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered. The First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which this
        Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

       

      All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Note and the
        Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.

       

      2.          Registrar and Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be
        surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon acting through its London Branch, as its Paying
        Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the Trustee and its Security Registrar. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Security Registrar, to appoint additional or
        other Paying Agents or other Security Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Security Registrar acts.

       

      3.          Additional Amounts.  All payments made by, or on behalf of, the
          Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
          assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the
          Company will pay

       

      
        21

        
          

      

      to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the
        Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or
        withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      (A)          the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

       

      (B)          the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section
        871(h) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (2) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, or (3) a bank
        receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, to the extent such Taxes

       

      
        22

        
          

      

      
        would not have been imposed but for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

      

       

      

      (iii)        any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date more
        than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner
        would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      (iv)        any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)         any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)        any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability
        company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the
        payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)       any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and any
        current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other
        official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)      any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For the purposes of this Note, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Note will not constitute a connection (1) between the holder or
        beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such holder or beneficial owner if such holder or beneficial owner is
        an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Note to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of the Indenture.

       

      
        23

        
          

      

      4.          Tax Redemption. The Company may, at its
          option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, this Note at any time prior to maturity on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together
        with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such redemption if:

       

      (a) the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Jurisdiction (or any
          political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
          becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022, with respect to this Note for reasons outside the Company’s, or, as the case may be, the Guarantor’s, control and after taking reasonable measures available to the Company and the Guarantor to avoid
          such obligation; or

       

      (b) on or after April 26, 2022, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, any Relevant Jurisdiction or any political
        subdivision of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any
        change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
        to this Note (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this section, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1) a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions
        precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2) a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or
        amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      5.          Change of Control Repurchase Event. In the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the
        Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes at a Repurchase Price in cash equal to 101% of
          the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to Section 6.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

       

      
        24

        
          

      

      6.          Global Security. If this Note is a Global Security, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an
        exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Common Depositary, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the
        Applicable Procedures.

       

      7.          Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
        manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall terminate.

       

      No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or
        sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless (i) such Holder has previously given
        written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
        request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
        expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) 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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, 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 the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of
        such Holders or to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

       

      The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective
        due dates expressed or provided for herein.

       

      8.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
        the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
        Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with
        certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or

       

      
        25

        
          

      

      waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in
        lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other Note. Certain modifications or amendments to the Indenture require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.

       

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair (without the consent of the Holder hereof) the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
        and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

       

      9.          Registration and Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is

        thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 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 governmental charge
        that may be imposed in connection therewith.

       

      Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name

        business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice of which shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to the 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 such Notes may be listed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

        under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

      [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

       

      1.          Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its “1.244% Senior Notes due 2029” (herein called
        the “Notes”), issued under a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), to an indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022
        (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Base Indenture” and herein with the First Supplemental Indenture, collectively, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term
        includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, The Bank of New
        York Mellon, London Branch (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any successor paying agent under the Indenture) and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
        authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2029 Notes Outstanding at any time may not exceed ¥4,900,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Sections
        3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture and except for any Notes which, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered. The First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which this
        Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

       

      All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Note and the
        Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.

       

      2.          Registrar and Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be
        surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon acting through its London Branch, as its Paying
        Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the Trustee and its Security Registrar. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Security Registrar, to appoint additional or
        other Paying Agents or other Security Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Security Registrar acts.

       

      3.          Additional Amounts.  All payments made by, or on behalf of, the
          Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
          assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the
          Company will pay

       

      
        35

        
          

      

      to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the
        Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or
        withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      (A)          the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

       

      (B)          the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)         any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section
        871(h) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (2) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, or
        (3) a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, to the extent such Taxes

       

      
        36

        
          

      

      would not have been imposed but for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

       

      (iii)        any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date more
        than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner
        would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      (iv)        any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)         any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)        any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability
        company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the
        payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)      any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and any
        current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other
        official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)     any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For the purposes of this Note, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Note will not constitute a connection (1) between the holder or
        beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such holder or beneficial owner if such holder or beneficial owner is
        an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Note to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of the Indenture.

       

      
        37

        
          

      

      4.          Tax Redemption. The Company may, at its
          option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, this Note at any time prior to maturity on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together
        with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such redemption if:

       

      (a) the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Jurisdiction (or any
          political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
          becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022, with respect to this Note for reasons outside the Company’s, or, as the case may be, the Guarantor’s, control and after taking reasonable measures available to the Company and the Guarantor to avoid
          such obligation; or

       

      (b) on or after April 26, 2022, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, any Relevant Jurisdiction or any political
        subdivision of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any
        change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
        to this Note (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this section, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1) a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions
        precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2) a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or
        amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      5.          Change of Control Repurchase Event. In the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the
        Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes at a Repurchase Price in cash equal to 101% of
          the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to Section 6.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

       

      
        38

        
          

      

      6.          Global Security. If this Note is a Global Security, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an
        exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Common Depositary, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the
        Applicable Procedures.

       

      7.          Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
        manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall terminate.

       

      No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or
        sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless (i) such Holder has previously given
        written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
        request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
        expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) 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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, 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 the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of
        such Holders or to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

       

      The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective
        due dates expressed or provided for herein.

       

      8.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
        the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
        Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with
        certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or

      [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

       

      1.          Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its “1.437% Senior Notes due 2032” (herein called
        the “Notes”), issued under a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), to an indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022
        (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Base Indenture” and herein with the First Supplemental Indenture, collectively, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term
        includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, The Bank of New
        York Mellon, London Branch (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any successor paying agent under the Indenture) and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
        authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2032 Notes Outstanding at any time may not exceed ¥6,200,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Sections
        3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture and except for any Notes which, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered. The First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which this
        Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

       

      All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Note and the
        Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.

       

      2.          Registrar and Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be
        surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon acting through its London Branch, as its Paying
        Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the Trustee and its Security Registrar. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Security Registrar, to appoint additional or
        other Paying Agents or other Security Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Security Registrar acts.

       

      3.          Additional Amounts.  All payments made by, or on behalf of, the
          Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
          assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the
          Company will pay

       

      
        49

        
          

      

       to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the
        Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or
        withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      (A)        the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section

        50

        
          

      

      would not have been imposed but for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

       

      (iii)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date
        more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial
        owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      (iv)          any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)          any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)          any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability
        company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the
        payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and
        any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other
        official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)          any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For the purposes of this Note, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Note will not constitute a connection (1)
        between the holder or beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such holder or beneficial owner if such holder
        or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Note to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of the Indenture.

      4.          Tax Redemption. The Company may, at its
          option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, this Note at any time prior to maturity on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together
        with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such redemption if:

       

      (a) the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Jurisdiction (or any
          political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
          becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022, with respect to this Note for reasons outside the Company’s, or, as the case may be, the Guarantor’s, control and after taking reasonable measures available to the Company and the Guarantor to avoid
          such obligation; or

       

      (b) on or after April 26, 2022, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, any Relevant Jurisdiction or any political
        subdivision of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any
        change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
        to this Note (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this section, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1) a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions
        precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2) a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or
        amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      5.          Change of Control Repurchase Event. In the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the
        Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes at a Repurchase Price in cash equal to 101% of
          the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to Section 6.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

       

      
        52

        
          

      

      6.          Global Security. If this Note is a Global Security, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an
        exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Common Depositary, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the
        Applicable Procedures.

       

      7.          Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
        manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall terminate.

       

      No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or
        sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless (i) such Holder has previously given
        written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
        request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
        expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) 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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, 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 the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of
        such Holders or to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

       

      The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective
        due dates expressed or provided for herein.

       

      8.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
        the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
        Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with
        certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or

       

      
        53

        
          

      

      waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in
        lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other Note. Certain modifications or amendments to the Indenture require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.

       

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair (without the consent of the Holder hereof) the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
        and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

       

      9.          Registration and Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is

        thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 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 governmental charge
        that may be imposed in connection therewith.

       

      Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name

      [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

       

      1.          Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its “1.553% Senior Notes due 2034” (herein called
        the “Notes”), issued under a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), to an indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022
        (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Base Indenture” and herein with the First Supplemental Indenture, collectively, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term
        includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, The Bank of New
        York Mellon, London Branch (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any successor paying agent under the Indenture) and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
        authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2034 Notes Outstanding at any time may not exceed ¥7,500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Sections
        3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture and except for any Notes which, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered. The First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which this
        Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

       

      All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Note and the
        Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.

       

      2.          Registrar and Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be
        surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon acting through its London Branch, as its Paying
        Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the Trustee and its Security Registrar. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Security Registrar, to appoint additional or
        other Paying Agents or other Security Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Security Registrar acts.

       

      3.          Additional Amounts.  All payments made by, or on behalf of, the
          Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
          assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the
          Company will pay

       

      
        63

        
          

      

      to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the
        Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or
        withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      (A)          the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

       

      (B)          the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section
        871(h) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (2) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, or (3) a bank
        receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, to the extent such Taxes

       

      
        64

        
          

      

      would not have been imposed but for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

       

      (iii)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date
        more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial
        owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      (iv)          any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)           any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)          any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability
        company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the
        payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and
        any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law,
        regulation or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)         any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For the purposes of this Note, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Note will not constitute a connection (1)
        between the holder or beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such holder or beneficial owner if such holder
        or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Note to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of the Indenture.

       

      
        65

        
          

      

      4.          Tax Redemption. The Company may, at its
          option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, this Note at any time prior to maturity on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together
        with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such redemption if:

       

      (a) the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Jurisdiction (or any
          political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
          becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022, with respect to this Note for reasons outside the Company’s, or, as the case may be, the Guarantor’s, control and after taking reasonable measures available to the Company and the Guarantor to avoid
          such obligation; or

       

      (b) on or after April 26, 2022, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, any Relevant Jurisdiction or any political
        subdivision of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any
        change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
        to this Notes (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this section, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1) a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions
        precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2) a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or
        amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      5.          Change of Control Repurchase Event. In the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the
        Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes at a Repurchase Price in cash equal to 101% of
          the aggregate principal

       

      
        66

        
          

      

      amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to Section 6.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

       

      6.          Global Security. If this Note is a Global Security, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an
        exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Common Depositary, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the
        Applicable Procedures.

       

      7.          Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
        manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall terminate.

       

      No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or
        sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless (i) such Holder has previously given
        written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
        request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
        expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) 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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, 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 the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of
        such Holders or to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

       

      The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective
        due dates expressed or provided for herein.

       

      8.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
        the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
        Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in

       

      
        67

        
          

      

      aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture
        and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
        herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other Note. Certain modifications or amendments to the Indenture require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.

       

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair (without the consent of the Holder hereof) the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
        and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

       

      9.          Registration and Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is
        registerable on the Security Register. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of

        thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 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 governmental charge
        that may be imposed in connection therewith.

       

      Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name

      [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

       

      1.          Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its “1.795% Senior Notes due 2037” (herein called
        the “Notes”), issued under a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), to an indenture, dated as of April 26, 2022
        (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Base Indenture” and herein with the First Supplemental Indenture, collectively, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term
        includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, The Bank of New
        York Mellon, London Branch (the “Paying Agent,” which term includes any successor paying agent under the Indenture) and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
        authenticated and delivered. The aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2037 Notes Outstanding at any time may not exceed ¥5,500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Sections
        3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture and except for any Notes which, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered. The First Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which this
        Note is issued provides that Additional Notes may be issued thereunder.

       

      All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Note and the
        Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern.

       

      2.          Registrar and Paying Agent.  The Company shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be
        surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon acting through its London Branch, as its Paying
        Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the Trustee and its Security Registrar. The Company reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent or Security Registrar, to appoint additional or
        other Paying Agents or other Security Registrars and to approve any change in the office through which any Paying Agent or Security Registrar acts.

       

      3.          Additional Amounts.  All payments made by, or on behalf of, the
          Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and interest, will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
          assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the
          Company will pay

       

      
        77

        
          

      

      to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the
        Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or
        withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      (A)          the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

       

      (B)          the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section
        871(h) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (2) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, or (3) a bank
        receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, to the extent such Taxes

       

      
        78

        
          

      

      would not have been imposed but for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

       

      (iii)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date
        more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial
        owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      (iv)         any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)          any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)         any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability
        company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the
        payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)       any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and any
        current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other
        official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)      any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For the purposes of this Note, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to the Note will not constitute a connection (1) between the holder or
        beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such holder or beneficial owner if such holder or beneficial owner is
        an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Note to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of the Indenture.

      4.          Tax Redemption. The Company may, at its
          option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, this Note at any time prior to maturity on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together
        with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for such redemption if:

       

      (a) the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of any Relevant Jurisdiction (or any
          political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
          becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022, with respect to this Note for reasons outside the Company’s, or, as the case may be, the Guarantor’s, control and after taking reasonable measures available to the Company and the Guarantor to avoid
          such obligation; or

       

      (b) on or after April 26, 2022, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, any Relevant Jurisdiction or any political
        subdivision of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any
        change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
        to this Note (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this section, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1) a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions
        precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2) a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or
        amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      5.          Change of Control Repurchase Event. In the event of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the
        Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes at a Repurchase Price in cash equal to 101% of
          the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, pursuant to Section 6.02 of the First Supplemental Indenture.

      6.          Global Security. If this Note is a Global Security, then, in the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an
        exchange, transfer, redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Common Depositary, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the
        Applicable Procedures.

       

      7.          Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
        manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, all obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall terminate.

       

      No Holder of Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or
        sequestrator (or similar official) or for any other remedy hereunder (except actions for payment of overdue principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on such Notes in accordance with its terms), unless (i) such Holder has previously given
        written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, specifying an Event of Default, as required under the Indenture; (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
        request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; (iii) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
        expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (iv) the Trustee has failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and (v) 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 aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, 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 the Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of
        such Holders or to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

       

      The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest hereon, on or after the respective
        due dates expressed or provided for herein.

       

      8.          Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of
        the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
        Outstanding Notes. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with
        certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or

       

      
        81

        
          

      

      waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in
        lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other Note. Certain modifications or amendments to the Indenture require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.

       

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair (without the consent of the Holder hereof) the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
        and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

       

      9.          Registration and Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is
        registerable on the Security Register. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of
        the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and principal amount. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, at the option of the Holder,

        transfer or for exchange shall be duly endorsed (if so required by the Company or the Trustee), or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder
        thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. 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 governmental charge
        that may be imposed in connection therewith.

       

      Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name
        such Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture), whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, a Guarantor or
        the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      Section 3.03.          Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities.  (a) The transfer and exchange of Global
        Securities or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in the Indenture and in the Global Security) and the procedures of the
        Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Security to another Global Security shall deliver to the Security Registrar a duly completed Assignment Form in the form attached to the Global Security, any applicable
        certifications or opinions required by the Assignment Form and a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest
        in the Global Security. The Security Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Security and to debit the
        account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Security being transferred.

       

      (b)          If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in another Global
        Security, the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest
        to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security from which such interest is being transferred.

       

      (c)          If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a
        Note is eligible for resale after the applicable Resale Restriction Termination Date (as defined in the applicable Note) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need for current public information and
        that the applicable legend in either the first or second paragraph of Section 3.02 hereto (a “Restricted Legend”) is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note
        (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may instruct the Trustee to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note in any authorized denominations of like
        tenor and aggregate principal amount, registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction.

      Remedies

       

      Section 4.01.          Events of Default.  “Event of Default” means, wherever
        used herein with respect to the Notes, 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):

       

      (a)          an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Base Indenture; or

       

      
        87

        
          

      

      (b)          the Company’s failure to pay the Repurchase Price when due in connection with a Change of Control Repurchase Event.

       

      Section 4.02.          Waiver of Past Defaults.  Section 5.12 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes,
        and, with respect to the Notes, any reference to Section 5.12 in the Base Indenture shall instead be deemed to refer to this Section 4.02.

       

      The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default hereunder with respect to the Notes
        and its consequences, except a default:

       

      (a)          in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any), interest on, or Additional Amounts with respect to any Note, or the Repurchase Price in
        connection with a Change of Control Repurchase Event; or

       

      (b)          in respect of a covenant or provision hereof or of the Base Indenture which under Article 8 hereof or under Article 9 of the Base Indenture
        cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected, provided that there had been paid or deposited with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay all amounts
        due to the Paying Agent and to reimburse the Paying Agent for any and all fees, expenses and disbursements advanced by the Paying Agent, its agents and its counsel incurred in connection with such default or Event of Default.

       

      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 First Supplemental Indenture, but no
        such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

                   Tax Redemption

       

      Section 5.01.          Tax Redemption.

       

      The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, together with any interest
        accrued and unpaid on the Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption, at any time, on giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice if:

       

      (1)                the Company has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws, regulations or rulings of such Relevant Jurisdiction or any
        political subdivision or any taxing authority of or in any Relevant Jurisdiction affecting taxation, or any change in or amendment to an official application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is
        announced or becomes effective on or after April 14, 2022 (or, if the Relevant Jurisdiction became a Relevant Jurisdiction on a date after April 14, 2022, such later date); provided such

       

      
        88

        
          

      

         obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Company or, as the case may be, the Guarantor taking reasonable measures available to it; or

       

         (2)                any action shall have been taken by a taxing authority, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, in any Relevant
          Jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in any Relevant Jurisdiction, including any of those actions specified in (a) above, whether or not such action was taken or brought
          with respect to the Company, or any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings shall be officially proposed, in any such case on or after April 26, 2022 (or, if the
        Relevant Jurisdiction became a Relevant Jurisdiction on a date after April 26, 2022, such later date), which results in a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts on the
          next interest payment date (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent).

       

      However, no such notice of redemption shall be given
          earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be, in the case of a redemption for the reasons specified in (1)
            above, or there would be a material probability that the Company would be, in the case of a redemption for the reasons specified in (2) above, obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due and at
            the time such notification of redemption is given such circumstance remains in effect.

       

      Prior to the mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 5.01, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee:

       

      (1)          a certificate signed by one of its duly authorized officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the
        conditions precedent to the Company’s right so to redeem have occurred, and

       

      (2)          a written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change
        or amendment.

       

      Such notice, once delivered by the Company to the Trustee, shall be irrevocable.

       

      ARTICLE 6  

      Particular Covenants

       

      Section 6.01.          Liens.  The Credit Parties shall not create, assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness for
        money borrowed that is secured by a pledge, mortgage, lien or other encumbrance (other than Permitted Liens) on any voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their respective Subsidiaries (to the extent of their ownership of such
        voting stock or profit participating equity interests) or any entity that succeeds (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) to all or any

       

      
        89

        
          

      

      substantial part of the business of any of such Subsidiaries, without providing that the Notes (together with, if the Credit Parties shall so determine, any other indebtedness of, or guarantee by, the Credit Parties
        ranking equally with the Notes and existing as of the closing of the offering of the Notes or thereafter created) will be secured equally and ratably with or prior to all other indebtedness secured by such pledge, mortgage, lien or other
        encumbrance on the voting stock or profit participating equity interests of any such entities. This Section 6.01 shall not limit the ability of the Credit Parties to incur indebtedness or other obligations secured by liens on assets other than the
        voting stock or profit participating equity interests of their respective Subsidiaries.

       

      Section 6.02.          Obligation to Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.  (a) If a Change
        of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes pursuant to Article 5 of this First Supplemental Indenture by giving notice of such redemption to the Holders of the Notes pursuant to Section 11.04
        of the Base Indenture, the Company will make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part of that Holder’s Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101%
        of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Repurchase Price”).

       

      (b)          In connection with any Change of Control related to a Change of Control Repurchase Event and any particular reduction in the ratings on the
        Notes, the Company shall request from the Rating Agencies each such Rating Agency’s written confirmation that such reduction in the ratings on the Notes was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a
        result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of any Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The Company shall promptly certify to the Trustee as to
        whether or not such confirmation has been received or denied.

       

      (c)          Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public
        announcement of the Change of Control, the Company will give notice to each Holder of Notes, with a written copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and
        offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is given (the “Repurchase Price Payment Date”).

        The notice shall, if given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The
        Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a
        result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable
        securities laws and

       

      
        90

        
          

      

      regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

       

      (d)          On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

       

      (i)          accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

       

      (ii)         deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Repurchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly
        tendered; and

       

      (iii)        deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an officers’ certificate stating
        the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased by the Company.

       

      The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Repurchase Price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by
        book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note representing any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered will be in a principal amount of
        ¥100,000,000 and integral multiples of ¥10,000,000 in excess thereof.

       

      (e)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase
        Event if (i) a third party makes an offer in respect of the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not
        withdrawn under its offer or (ii) the Company has given written notice of a redemption as provided under Section 11.04 of the Base Indenture; provided that the Company has not failed to pay the Redemption Price on the redemption date.

       

      Section 6.03.          Financial Reports.  Section 7.04 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the reports,
        information, and documents delivered under this Section 6.03.

       

      (a)          For so long as the Corporation is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide (or
        cause its Affiliates to provide) to the Trustee, unless available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or successor system) (“EDGAR”), within 15 days after the
        Corporation files the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations
        prescribe) which the Corporation may file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Trustee may conclusively presume, and shall incur no liability in such presumption, that the Corporation has not filed
        any such reports, information, documents and other reports with the Commission that are not

       

      
        91

        
          

      

      available on EDGAR unless and until it shall have received written notice from the Company to the contrary.

       

      (b)          For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, the Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, furnish to the Holders of the Notes and
        prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act for the Company and, unless available on EDGAR, for the Corporation (as if such rule applied to it); provided, however, that if any time the Corporation no longer directly or indirectly controls the Credit Parties or guarantees the Notes, such information shall be
        provided for either (i) the Credit Parties on a combined and consolidated basis and taken as a whole or (ii) any Person that directly or indirectly controls the Credit Parties and guarantees the Notes (in each case, as if such rule applied to such
        Persons). The Company shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, make the above information and reports available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request.

       

      (c)          Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be 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 contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of the covenants contained in the Indenture (as to which the Trustee will
        be entitled to conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate). The Trustee shall have no obligation to determine if and when the Company’s information is available on EDGAR and the Trustee shall have no obligation to obtain any reports that are
        posted on EDGAR.

       

      Section 6.04.          Additional Amounts.

       

      (a)          All payments made by, or on behalf of, the Company under or with respect to the Notes, including, but not limited to, payments of principal and
        interest, shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by
        any Relevant Jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such Relevant Jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by regulation or
        governmental policy having the force of law. In the event such withholding or deduction of Taxes is required by law, the Company will pay to the Holder or beneficial owner of any Note such additional amounts (“Additional

          Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the Company or any paying agent of principal of or interest on the Notes, after deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes, will not be less than the amount
        provided for in such Note to be then due and payable before deduction or withholding for or on account of such Taxes; provided that the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

       

      (i)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for:

       

      
        92

        
          

      

      (A)          the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other
        equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity) and any Relevant Jurisdiction,
        including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of
        such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been engaged in a trade or business in such Relevant Jurisdiction or being or having been present in such Relevant Jurisdiction or having or having had a permanent establishment in such Relevant
        Jurisdiction;

       

      (B)          the failure of such Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation in any Relevant Jurisdiction as a precondition to relief or exemption from the Tax, and proper notice of such requirements
        has been sent to the Holder or beneficial owner with respect to a jurisdiction other than the United States; or

       

      (C)          such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, controlled foreign corporation, passive
        foreign investment company or foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax;

       

      (ii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted on interest received by (1) a “10-percent shareholder” of KKR Group Partnership or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 871(h) of the Code,
        (2) a controlled foreign corporation that is related to us within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, or (3) a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed but
        for the beneficial owner’s status as described in clauses (1) through (3) of this paragraph (ii);

       

      (iii)          any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note for payment on a date more than 30 days
        after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Note is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have
        been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Note on any date during such 30-day period;

       

      
        93

        
          

      

      (iv)          any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, capital gains, personal property, excise, wealth, interest equalization or similar Taxes;

       

      (v)          any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding from any payment of principal of or interest on such Note;

       

      (vi)          any Taxes which are payable by a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the Note, or a portion of the Note, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or other
        similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an
        Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

       

      (vii)          any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions that are substantively comparable) and any current or future
        regulations or official interpretations thereof (“FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other official guidance
        enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or

       

      (viii)          any combination of taxes referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii).

       

      For purposes of this Section 6.04, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to a Note will not constitute a connection (1) between the Holder or
        beneficial owner and any Relevant Jurisdiction or (2) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner if such Holder or beneficial owner is
        an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and any Relevant Jurisdiction.

       

      Any reference in this Indenture or in the Notes to principal or interest shall be deemed to refer also to Additional Amounts which may be payable under the provisions of this Section 6.04.

      Supplemental Indentures

       

      Section 8.01.          Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders of Notes.  For the purposes of the Base
        Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture, no amendment to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in this First Supplemental

       

      
        94

        
          

      

      Indenture, the Base Indenture or the Notes made solely to conform this First Supplemental Indenture, the Base Indenture or the Notes to the Description of the Notes contained in the Company’s offering memorandum dated
        April 14, 2022, to the extent that such provision in the Description of the Notes was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this First Supplemental Indenture, the Base Indenture or the Notes, shall be deemed to adversely affect the
        interests of the Holders of any Notes.

       

      Section 8.02.          Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders of Notes.  Section 9.02 of the Base Indenture
        shall not apply to the Notes, and, with respect to the Notes, any reference to Section 9.02 in the Base Indenture shall instead be deemed to refer to this Section 8.02.

       

      With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes affected by such supplemental indenture (including consents obtained in connection
        with a tender offer or exchange for the Notes), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the
        purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of such Notes under the Indenture; provided,
        however, no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby:

       

      (a)          change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Note;

       

      (b)          reduce the principal amount of any Note which would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to
        Section 5.02 of the Base Indenture, or reduce the rate of or extend the time of payment of interest on any Note;

       

      (c)          reduce the Repurchase Price in connection with a Change of Control Repurchase Event;

       

      (d)          reduce any premium payable upon the redemption of or change the date on which any Note may or must be redeemed;

       

      (e)          change the coin or currency in which the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Note is
        payable;

       

      (f)          change the date on which any Note may or must be redeemed;

       

      (g)          impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case
        of redemption or repayment, on or after the redemption date or a Repurchase Price Payment Date, as applicable);

       

      
        95

        
          

      

      (h)          reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes the consent of whose Holders is required for modification or amendment of this
        First Supplemental Indenture or the Base Indenture or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of the Base Indenture or this First Supplemental Indenture or certain defaults thereunder and
        hereunder and their consequences) provided for in the Base Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture;

       

      (i)          modify any of the provisions of this Section 8.02 or Section 5.12 or Section 10.05 of the Base Indenture, except to increase any such percentage
        or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to “the Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section 8.02 and
        Section 10.05 of the Base Indenture, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of Sections 6.11 and 9.01(g) of the Base Indenture;

       

      (j)          subordinate the Notes or any Guarantee of a Guarantor in respect thereof to any other obligation of the Company or such Guarantor;

       

      (k)          modify the terms of any Guarantee in a manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; or

       

      (l)          modify clauses (a) through (k) above.

       

      It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 8.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the
        substance thereof.

       

      A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of
        Securities other than the Notes, 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 the Notes.

       

      In addition, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, and subject to and in accordance with the provisions
        of Section 10.05 of the Base Indenture, waive compliance with the Credit Parties’ covenants described under Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 of this First Supplemental Indenture and Article 9 and Section 14.02 of the Base Indenture (other than
        any covenant, a modification to which under clause (e) of this Section 8.02 would require the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby).

      Defeasance

       

      Section 9.01.          Covenant Defeasance.  Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to
        the Notes, and, with respect to the Notes, any reference to Section 13.03 in the Base Indenture shall instead be deemed to refer to this Section 9.01.

       

      Upon the Company’s exercise of its option, if any, to have Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture applied to the Notes, or if Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture shall otherwise apply to the Notes, (1)
        the Company and the Guarantors shall be released from their respective obligations and any covenants provided pursuant to Article 6 of this First Supplemental Indenture and Section 3.01(b)(18), Section 8.01, Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(l) and
        Article 14 of the Base Indenture for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 5.01(d) and Section 5.01(h) of the Base Indenture shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in
        each case with respect to the Notes and the related Guarantees as provided in Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 of the Base Indenture are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Notes and Guarantees thereof, each of the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no
        liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section, whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein or in the Base Indenture to any such Section or by reason of any reference
        in any such Section to any other provision herein or in the Base Indenture or in any other document, but the remainder of the Base Indenture, this First Supplemental Indenture and such Notes and Guarantees thereof shall be unaffected thereby.

      Miscellaneous

       

      Section 10.01.          Execution as Supplemental Indenture.  This First Supplemental Indenture is executed and shall

      Section 10.02.          Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes.  The recitals contained herein and in the
        Notes, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
        representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this First Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes or the Guarantees. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Notes or the proceeds thereof.

       

      Section 10.03.          Separability Clause.  In case any provision in this First Supplemental Indenture or in the

      Section 10.04.          Successors and Assigns.  All covenants and agreements in this First Supplemental Indenture by
        the Company and the Guarantors shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this First Supplemental Indenture shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

       

      Section 10.05.          Execution and Counterparts.  This First Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number
        of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in
        or relating to this First Supplemental Indenture or any document to be signed in connection with this First Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of
        which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the
        transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.

       

      Section 10.06.          Governing Law.  This First Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by, and
        construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

        directives, guidelines and interpretations promulgated by competent authorities) in effect from time to time (“Applicable Law”), the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from
        payments under the Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law (and shall timely pay the amounts so withheld or deducted to the applicable governmental authority) for which The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. shall
        not have any liability, except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each of the Company and the Trustee agrees to reasonably cooperate and, at the reasonable request of the other, to provide the other with such information as each
        may have in its possession that is necessary to enable the determination of whether any payments hereunder are subject to FATCA Withholding Tax.
