conversion thereof which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Notes have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or
been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or sold pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities
Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee): 
 THIS SECURITY AND THE COMMON STOCK, IF
ANY, ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER: 
 (1) REPRESENTS THAT IT
AND ANY ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT IS ACTING IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THAT IT EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH SUCH ACCOUNT, AND 

(2) AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY
BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO, AND
(Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT: 
 (A) TO TPG SPECIALTY LENDING, INC. (THE
“COMPANY”) OR ANY CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR 

  
 17 

 (B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT, OR 
 (C) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR 

(D) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(D) ABOVE,
THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE
SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. 

No transfer of any Note prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable box on
the completed Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked. 
 Any Note (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) as to
which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of such Note for exchange to the Note Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05, be exchanged for a new Note or
Notes, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date and
promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act. 

If, on the Resale Restriction Termination Date, or the next succeeding Business Day if the Resale Restriction Termination Date is not a
Business Day, any Notes are represented by a Global Note that is a Restricted Note (any such Global Note, a “Restricted Global Note”), as promptly as practicable, the Company will automatically exchange every beneficial interest in
each Restricted Global Note for beneficial interests in Global Notes that are not subject to the restrictions set forth in the Restricted Notes Legend and in this Section 2.05. To effect such automatic exchange, the Company will
(A) deliver to the Depositary an instruction letter for the Depositary’s mandatory exchange process as required by the Depositary prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date and (B) deliver to each of the Trustee and the
Registrar a duly completed free transferability certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B promptly after the Resale Restriction Termination Date. Immediately upon receipt of the free transferability

  
 18 

 
certificate by each of the Trustee and the Registrar: (A) the Restricted Notes Legend will be deemed removed from each of the Global Notes specified in such free transferability certificate
and the restricted CUSIP number will be deemed removed from each of such Global Notes and deemed replaced with an unrestricted CUSIP number with no further action required by the Company, the Trustee or, if applicable, the Depositary. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the restrictive legend being deemed removed from the Notes and the unrestricted CUSIP specified
therein being substituted for the restricted CUSIP thereon, the Company may provide the Trustee with a new Global Note to serve as the Unrestricted Global Note and to bear such unrestricted CUSIP, and the Trustee shall continue to reflect such
portion of the Notes as the Company may direct on the Restricted Global Note. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture
(other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or
another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii) for transfers of portions of a Global Note in certificated form made upon request of a
member of, or a participant in, the Depositary (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with
this Section 2.05(c). 
 The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company initially appoints
The Depository Trust Company to act as Depositary with respect to each Global Note. Initially, each Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with
the Trustee as custodian for Cede & Co. 
 If (i) the Depositary notifies the Company at any time that the Depositary is
unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is
not appointed within 90 days or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of the Notes requests that its Notes be issued as Physical Notes, the Company will execute, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, will authenticate and deliver Physical Notes to each such beneficial owner of the related Notes (or a portion thereof) in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, and upon delivery of the Global Note to the Trustee such Global Note shall be canceled. 

Physical Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names
and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to
the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered. 

  
 19 

 At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, repurchased or
transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest
in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, converted, canceled, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal
amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such
Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase. 
 Neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or 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 Note or maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 (d) Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date,
any stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless the Note or such Common Stock has been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has
become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the
Securities Act, or such Common Stock has been issued upon conversion of Notes that have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at
the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company with written notice thereof to the Trustee and
any transfer agent for the Common Stock): 
 THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
“SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER: 

(1) REPRESENTS THAT IT AND ANY ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT IS ACTING IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (WITHIN THE
MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THAT IT EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH SUCH ACCOUNT, AND 

(2) AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY
BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO AND
(Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT: 
 (A) TO TPG SPECIALTY LENDING, INC. (THE
“COMPANY”) OR ANY CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR 

  
 20 

 (B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT, OR 
 (C) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR 

(D) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(D) ABOVE,
THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE
SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. 

Any such Common Stock as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of the
certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d). 
 (e) Any Note that is repurchased or owned by
the Company or any Subsidiary thereof may not be resold by the Company or such Subsidiary unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that
results in such Note no longer being “restricted securities” (as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act). 
 (f)
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2.05 to the contrary, in the event Rule 144 as promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) is amended to change the one-year holding period thereunder (or the corresponding period
under any successor rule), from and after receipt by the Trustee of the Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel provided for in this Section 2.05(f), (i) each reference in Section 2.05(c) to “one year” and in the
restrictive legend set forth in such paragraph to “ONE YEAR” shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be references to such changed period, (ii) each reference in Section 2.05(d) to “one year” and in the restrictive
legend set forth in such paragraph to “ONE YEAR” shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be references to such changed period and (iii) all corresponding 

  
 21 

 
references in the Notes (including the definition of Resale Restriction Termination Date) and the restrictive legends thereon shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be references to such
changed period, provided that such changes shall not become effective if they are otherwise prohibited by, or would otherwise cause a violation of, the then-applicable federal securities laws, or are not applicable to the Notes or Common Stock. The
provisions of this Section 2.05(f) will not be effective until such time as the Opinion of Counsel and Officers’ Certificate have been received by the Trustee hereunder. This Section 2.05(f) shall apply to successive amendments to
Rule 144 (or any successor rule) changing the holding period thereunder. 
 Section 2.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or
Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon a Company Order the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, a new Note, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted
Note shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected
with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof. 
 The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted
Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. Upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Company or the Trustee may require the
payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has
been surrendered for required repurchase or is about to be converted in accordance with Article 13 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or
authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the
Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case
of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent evidence of their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

 Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost
or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations
set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive
with respect to the replacement or payment 

  
 22 

 
or conversion or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted
to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment or conversion of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 

Section 2.07. Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an
authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Company, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the
form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the
Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will execute and deliver to the Trustee or such
authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to
Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense
and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 Section 2.08. Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the
purpose of payment, repurchase, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates), to be surrendered to the
Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled by it in accordance with its customary procedures, and no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this
Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such disposition, shall deliver a certificate of such disposition to the Company, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order.
If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption, repurchase or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation.  
 Section 2.09. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP”
numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to
the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in
the “CUSIP” numbers. Until such time as the Company notifies the Trustee to remove the restrictive legend as set forth in Section 2.05(c) from the Notes or a transfer of Notes from a Restricted Global Note to an Unrestricted Global
Note is otherwise made pursuant to the terms hereof, the restricted CUSIP will be the CUSIP number for the Notes. At such time as the 

  
 23 

 
Company notifies the Trustee to remove the restrictive legend as set forth in Section 2.05(c) from the Notes, such legend shall be deemed removed from any Global Notes and an unrestricted
CUSIP number for the Notes, as provided therein, shall be deemed to be the CUSIP number for the Notes. 
 Section 2.10.
Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder
(except that the first Interest Payment Date and the date from which interest may accrue may be different) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that such additional Notes must be part of the same issue as the Notes initially
issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes if represented by the same CUSIP number (including, if relevant, an unrestricted CUSIP number) as the Notes initially issued hereunder. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the
Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required by Section 16.05, as the
Trustee shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether
by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. Any Notes repurchased by the Company may, at the
Company’s option, be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08. 
 ARTICLE 3 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 3.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officers’
Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (a) (i) all Notes theretofore authenticated and
delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.06 and (y) Notes 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 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with the Trustee or
delivered to Holders, as applicable, after all outstanding Notes have become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination
thereof, as applicable, solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation, sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company; and (b) the Company has delivered to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.06 shall survive. 

  
 24 

 ARTICLE 4 

PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

Section 4.01. Payment of Principal and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be paid the principal of,
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, each of the Notes at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein and in the Notes. 

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an
office or agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or repurchase (“Paying Agent”) or for conversion (“Conversion Agent”) and where notices
and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the
Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or
agency of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate as co-Note
Registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any
manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, 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. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable. 

The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent and the Corporate
Trust Office and the office or agency of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, each shall be considered as one such office or agency of the Company for each of the aforesaid purposes. 

Section 4.03. Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a
vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.09, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder. 

Section 4.04. Provisions as to Paying Agent. (a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee,
the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.04: 

(i) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of, the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price, if applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes; 

(ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and 

(iii) that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums so held in trust. 

  
 25 

 The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal of, the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, or accrued and unpaid interest, and
(unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action; provided that if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on such date. 
 (b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the
principal of, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal, the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, and accrued and unpaid interest so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the
principal of, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable. 

(c) Anything in this Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 4.04, such sums or
amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with
respect to such sums or amounts. 
 (d) Any money and shares of Common Stock deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by
the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price, if applicable, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officers’ Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Note 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 shares of Common Stock, and all
liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a
newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money and shares of Common Stock remains unclaimed and that, after
a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money and shares of Common Stock then remaining will be repaid or delivered to the Company. 

  
 26 

 Section 4.05. Existence. Subject to Article 11, the Company will do or cause to be
done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. 
 Section 4.06. Rule 144A
Information Requirement and Annual Reports. (a) At any time the Company is not subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes or any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof shall, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any such shares, upon
written request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any other provision of Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time), to facilitate the resale of such Notes or shares of
Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time. 
 (b) The Company shall file
with the Trustee within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the Commission, copies of any documents or reports that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (giving
effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act). Any such document or report that the Company files with the Commission via the Commission’s EDGAR system shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of
this Section 4.06(b) at the time such documents are filed via the EDGAR system. 
 (c) Delivery of the reports and documents described
in subsection (b) above to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein,
including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate). The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis
or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with the covenants or with respect to any reports or other documents filed with the Commission or website under this Indenture, or participate in any conference calls. Delivery of reports to the Trustee
shall not constitute knowledge of, or notice to, the Trustee of the information contained therein. 
 (d) If (i) at any time during the
six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes, (x) the Company fails to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission
pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than reports on Form 8-K) or (y) the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than
the Company’s Affiliates (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), or (ii) as of the 365th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes offered hereby, the
restrictive legend on the Notes specified in Section 2.05(c) has not been removed, the Notes are assigned a restricted CUSIP or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (without
restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes) 

  
 27 

 
(each such event referred to in clause (i) or clause (ii) above, a “Restricted Transfer Default”), and, in either case, the Company has not cured any such Restricted
Transfer Default by the date that is 14 calendar days following the occurrence of such Restricted Transfer Default (the “Restricted Transfer Triggering Date”), then the Company shall pay Additional Interest in cash on the Notes.
Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes at the rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding for the first 90 days for which the Restricted Transfer Default has occurred and is continuing after the Restricted
Transfer Triggering Date and thereafter will accrue at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding for which the Restricted Transfer Default has occurred and is continuing after the Restricted Transfer Triggering
Date. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as of the 365th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes offered hereby, the
restrictive legend on the Notes specified in Section 2.05(c) has not been removed or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the
terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company may elect to designate an effective shelf registration statement for the resale of the Notes or any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. Additional Interest shall not accrue for each
day following the Restricted Transfer Triggering Date on which such registration statement remains effective and usable by Holders for the resale of the Notes or any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes. Any such registration shall be
effected on terms customary for convertible notes generally offered in reliance upon Rule 144A under the Securities Act. 
 Additional
Interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes. 

(e) The Additional Interest that is payable in accordance with Section 4.06(d) shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any
Additional Interest that may be payable as a result of the Company’s election pursuant to Section 6.03; provided, however, that in no event will Additional Interest accrue at a rate per year exceeding 0.50% in the aggregate during the
period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes through the date that is 365 days after the last date of original issuance of the Notes. 

(f) If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 4.06(d), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate (upon which the Trustee may rely conclusively) to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons
entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. 

Section 4.07. Investment Company Act. The Company covenants that for the period of time during which Notes are outstanding, the
Company shall not violate, whether or not the Company is subject to, Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) or any successor
provisions thereto of the Investment Company Act, but giving effect to any exemptive relief that may be granted to the Company by the Commission. 

  
 28 

 Section 4.08. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent
that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying
all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and
permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 4.09. Statement as to Compliance.
The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the date hereof so long as any Note is outstanding hereunder, an Officers’ Certificate stating to the knowledge of the signers thereof
whether the Company is in default in the performance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 4.09, such default shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of
notice under this Indenture. 
 Section 4.10. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will
execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. 

ARTICLE 5 
 LISTS
OF HOLDERS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE 

Section 5.01. Lists of Holders. The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee,
semi-annually, not more than 13 days after each June 1 and December 1 in each year beginning with December 1, 2014, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such

Holders as of a date not more than 15 days (or such other date as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to so provide any such notices) prior to the time such information is furnished, except that no such list need be furnished so long as the
Trustee is acting as Note Registrar. 
 Section 5.02. Preservation and Disclosure of Lists. The Trustee shall preserve, in as
current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Note
Registrar, if so acting. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

(g) failure by the Company to comply with the obligation set forth under Section 4.07; 

(h) default by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company with respect to any mortgage, agreement or other instrument under
which there may be outstanding, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for money borrowed in excess of $50 million in the aggregate of the Company and/or any such Significant Subsidiary, whether such indebtedness now exists
or shall hereafter be created (i) resulting in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable or (ii) constituting a failure to pay the principal or interest of any such debt when due and payable at its stated maturity, upon
required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise; 
 (i) a final judgment for the payment of $50 million or more

 (j) (i) the Company
or any Significant Subsidiary (A) shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the 

  
 30 

 
Company or any such Significant Subsidiary or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver,
liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Company or any such Significant Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property; (B) shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official
in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it; or (C) shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (ii) the Company shall admit in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become
due; or 
 (k) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary seeking

liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Company or such Significant Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive
days. 
 Section 6.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. In case one or more Events of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing (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), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(j) or Section 6.01(k) with respect to the Company, but not any of its Significant Subsidiaries), unless
the principal of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, by notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become
and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the Notes contained to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(j) or Section 6.01(k) with respect to the
Company, but not any of its Significant Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes shall be automatically and immediately due and payable.  

This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and
payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, or shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of cash
and/or shares of Common Stock sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the Notes, all amounts of consideration due upon the conversion of any and all converted Notes, and the principal of any and all Notes which shall have
become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest, at the rate or rates, if any, specified in the
Notes to the date of such payment or deposit) and such amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, and if any and all Events of Default under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of Notes which shall have become
due by acceleration, 

  
 31 

 
shall have been cured, waived, or otherwise remedied pursuant to Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences and 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 or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any
subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default
resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any Notes, (ii) a failure to repurchase any Notes when required, (iii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due
upon conversion of the Notes or (iv) a breach of a covenant that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder pursuant to Section 10.02. 

Section 6.03. Additional Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the
Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) shall, after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the
right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to (a) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the 90-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of
Default first occurs and (b) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the 90-day period beginning on, and including, the 91st day following, and including, the occurrence of such an Event of
Default during which such Event of Default is continuing. Additional Interest payable pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be in addition to, not in lieu of, any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 4.06(d); provided, however,
that in no event will Additional Interest accrue at a rate per year exceeding 0.50% in the aggregate during the period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes through the date
that is 365 days after the last date of original issuance of the Notes. If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as regular interest on the Notes. On the 181st day after such Event
of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to file is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. In the event the Company does not elect
to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.03, the Notes shall be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 

In order to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default
described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify in writing all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election prior to the fifth Business Day of such 180-day period. Upon the failure to timely give
such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 
 Section 6.04. Payments of
Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay or deliver, as the case may be, to it, for the benefit
of the Holders of 

  
 32 

 
the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable or deliverable on the Notes (i.e., principal and interest, if any, with interest on any overdue principal and interest, if any, at the rate or
rates, if any, specified in the Notes at such time) and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay or deliver, as the case may
be, such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums and amounts so due but unpaid or not delivered, may prosecute such
proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys or amounts adjudged or decreed to be payable or deliverable in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated. In such event, the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed or indemnified for any and all amounts reasonably expended in connection therewith (including fees and
expenses of counsel) in accordance with the terms of Section 7.06 hereof. 
 In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the
bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator,
sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or
such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes 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 pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.04, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims
for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem
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
proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same
after the deduction of any amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such
payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, 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 it for reasonably documented compensation, expenses,
advances and disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonably documented
compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies,
securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise, prior to that of the Notes. 

  
 33 

 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Holder 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. 
 All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the
Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 reasonably documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Notes. 
 In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture
to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings. 

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or
abandoned because of a waiver or rescission and annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Holders, and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in
such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders, and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 6.05. Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6
with respect to the Notes shall be applied, subject to applicable law, in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment,
if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid: 
 First, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee
under Section 7.06; 
 Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment
of interest on, and any cash due upon conversion of, the Notes in default in the order of the due date of the payments of such interest and cash due upon conversion, as the case may be, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been
collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate or rates, if any, specified in the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto; 

Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due or, if applicable, the payment of the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price or any cash due upon conversion shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal, interest, the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price or cash due upon conversion, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and, to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue 

  
 34 

 
installments of interest at the rate or rates, if any, specified in the Notes at such time, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon
the Notes, then to the payment of such principal, interest, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or cash due upon conversion without preference or priority of any such amount over each other (including principal over interest, or of interest over
principal or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note), ratably to the aggregate of such principal, accrued and unpaid interest, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or cash due
upon conversion; and 
 Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company. 

Section 6.06. Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price, if applicable, or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to
institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:
 
 (a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof,
as hereinbefore provided; 
 (b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written
request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
 (c) such Holders shall have
offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any costs, loss, liability or expense (including fees and expenses of its counsel) to be incurred therein or thereby; 

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any
such action, suit or proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such written request
shall have been given to the Trustee by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes outstanding within such 60-day period pursuant to Section 6.09, 

it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that
no one or more 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 Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or
preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and
enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 

  
 35 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of
any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (w) the principal of, (x) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest on, and (z) the consideration due upon
conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or deliver, as the case may be, on or after such respective
dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.07. Proceedings
by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default the Trustee may in its discretion (and subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 7.06) proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate
judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in
this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 

Section 6.08. Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers
and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or
power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06,
every power and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders. 

Section 6.09. Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 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 Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed
proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction and (c) the Trustee may demand security or indemnity satisfactory to it in accordance with Section 7.01. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines
is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with
Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal of,
the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes, (iii) a default in the
payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or (iv) a default in respect 

  
 36 

 
of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any
Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.10. Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence and continuance of a Default of which a
Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, deliver to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register, notice of all Defaults known to a Responsible Officer, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived
before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price,
if applicable, or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is
in the interests of the Holders. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any fact, notice of a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge
of such Default or Event of Default or (ii) written notice of such fact, Default or Event or Default shall have been given by the Company or by the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and received by a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee and references this Indenture and the Notes. 
 Section 6.11. Undertaking to Pay
Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable
costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this
Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any
Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to the Notes being repurchased as provided in this Indenture) on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the
enforcement of the right to convert any Note in accordance with the provisions of Article 13.

may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no additional duties shall be implied or inferred. In case an Event
of Default has occurred that has not been cured or waived the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, 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 such person’s own affairs under the circumstances; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities (including fees and expenses of its counsel)
that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 

(a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may have occurred: 

(i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

(ii) in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the
truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any 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
that by any provisions 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 any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein); 
 (b) the Trustee shall not be liable for any
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 

(c) 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 not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined as provided in Section 8.04 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 or refraining from taking any action believed in good faith to be beyond the scope of its powers, under this Indenture; 

  
 38 

 (d) whether or not therein 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; 
 (e) the Trustee
shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness of amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Note Registrar
with respect to the Notes; 
 (f) if any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture,
requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred, unless such Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event; 

(g) in the absence of written investment direction from the Company, all cash received by the Trustee shall be placed in a non-interest
bearing trust account, and in no event shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon or for losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its maturity date or
the failure of the party directing such investments prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investment to provide timely written investment direction, and the Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any
amounts held hereunder in the absence of such written investment direction from the Company; 
 (h) in the event that the Trustee is also
acting as Custodian, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or transfer agent hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article 7 shall also be afforded to such Custodian, Note
Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or transfer agent; 
 (i) the Trustee shall have no responsibility with
respect to any information, statement or recital in any offering memorandum or other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Notes or for compliance with any securities laws in connection with the issuance, sale, or coversion
of the Notes, which shall be the sole responsibility of the Company; and 
 (j) the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety
in respect of the performance of its powers or duties hereunder. 
 None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the
Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. 

Section 7.02. Reliance on Documents, Opinions, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01: 

(a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion,
report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, Note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

  
 39 

 (b) any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently
evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary
of the Company; 
 (c) the Trustee may consult with counsel and require an Opinion of Counsel and any advice of such counsel or Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel; 

(d) 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 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, at a reasonable time on any Business Day, to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the
expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation; 
 (e) the Trustee may execute
any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent,
custodian, nominee or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder; and 
 (f) the permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein
shall not be construed as duties. 
 In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action other than any such loss or damage
caused by the Trustee’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual
knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to a Responsible Officer by the Company or by any Holder of the Notes. 

Section 7.03. No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Indenture or of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

 Section 7.04. Trustee, Paying Agents, Conversion Agents, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar May Own Notes. The
Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent, Bid 

  
 40 

 
Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying
Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar. 
 Section 7.05. Monies and Shares of Common Stock to Be
Held in Trust. All monies and shares of Common Stock received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money and shares of Common Stock held by the Trustee in
trust hereunder 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 or shares of Common Stock received by it hereunder except as may be agreed from time to
time by the Company and the Trustee. 
 Section 7.06. Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants
and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons
not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any
other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and its agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or authenticating agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or in any other
capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse
the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05,
funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the
Company. The obligation of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal or the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee. 

Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating
agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(j) or Section 6.01(k) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws. 

  
 41 

 Section 7.07. Officers’ Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter
(unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’
Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officers’ Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the
provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof. 
 Section 7.08. Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all
times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, 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 report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

 Section 7.09. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written
notice of such resignation to the Company and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition
any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 

(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur: 

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or 
 (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting,
or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, 

  
 42 

 then, in either case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any
Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a
successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. 

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, as determined in accordance with
Section 8.04, may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within ten days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which
case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a) provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee. 

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10. 

Section 7.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request
of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the
rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such
rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the
benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06. 
 No successor
trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08. 

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at
the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. If the Company fails to mail
such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company. 

  
 43 

 Section 7.11. Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into
which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 7.08. 
 In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created
by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor
trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes
either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate
of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or
successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 7.12. Trustee’s Application for Instructions from
the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this
Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under 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 three Business Days
after the date any officer that the Company has indicated to the Trustee should receive such application 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 any omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted. 

ARTICLE 8 

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS 

Section 8.01. Action by Holders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes may take any 

  
 44 

 
action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the
Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of
the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 9, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders.
Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may fix, but shall not be required to, in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders
entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action. 

Section 8.02. Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and
Section 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar. The record of any Holders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06. 

Section 8.03. Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any
Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding
any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid
interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such
payments so made to any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of
the Depositary or any other Person, such Holder’s right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

Section 8.04. Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of
Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company or by any Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such
determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer knows are so owned shall be so
disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act

  
 45 

 
with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of
counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or
for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes
not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. 
 Section 8.05. Revocation of Consents; Future
Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this
Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office
and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or
substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

Section 10.01. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the
Board of Directors and the Trustee, at the Company’s expense and without notice, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes: 

(a) to cure or supplement any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency as determined in good faith by the Company, as evidenced in an
Officers’ Certificate; 
 (b) to provide for the assumption by a Successor Company of the obligations of the Company under this
Indenture pursuant to Article 11 or Section 13.07; 
 (c) to add guarantees with respect to the Notes; 

  
 48 

 (d) to secure the Notes; 

(e) to add to the covenants of the Company or Events of Default for the benefit of the Holders or surrender any right or power conferred upon
the Company; 
 (f) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder as determined in good faith by the Company,
as evidenced in an Officers’ Certificate; 
 (g) to conform the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes to the “Description of
Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum as determined in good faith by the Company, as evidenced in an Officers’ Certificate; 

(h) to evidence and provide for the appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee; or 

(i) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material respect as determined in good faith
by the Company, as evidenced in an Officers’ Certificate. 
 Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee is hereby authorized
to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into
any supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 Any
supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 10.01 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Notes at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of
Section 10.02. 
 Section 10.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the consent (evidenced as
provided in Article 8) of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (determined in accordance with Article 8 and including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a repurchase
of, or tender or exchange offer for, Notes), the Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Directors and the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time 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 this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided,
however, that, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, no such supplemental indenture shall: 

(a) reduce the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment; 

(b) reduce the rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note; 

(c) reduce the principal of or extend the Maturity Date of any Note; 

(d) make any change that adversely affects the conversion rights of any Notes; 

  
 49 

 (e) reduce the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of any Note or amend or modify in any manner
adverse to the Holders the Company’s obligation to make such payments, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise; 

(f) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note; 

(g) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates
therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Note; 
 (h) reflect the
replacement of Common Stock by Reference Property as described in Section 13.07; or 
 (i) make any change in this Article 10 that
requires each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.01 or Section 6.09, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent
of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby. 
 Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of
evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights,
duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 

Holders do not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture. It shall be
sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such supplemental indenture. However, the failure to give such
notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the supplemental indenture. 

Section 10.03. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the
provisions of this Article 10, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the
Company and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be
part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 
 Section 10.04. Notation on Notes.
Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 may, at the Company’s expense, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in
such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental
indenture may, at the Company’s expense, be prepared and executed by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent duly appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 16.10) and delivered in exchange for the Notes
then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding. 

  
 50 

 Section 10.05. Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished
Trustee. In addition to the documents required by Section 16.05, the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant hereto complies with
the requirements of this Article 10 and is permitted or authorized by the Indenture. Such Opinion of Counsel shall state that the executions of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.  
 ARTICLE 11 

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE AND LEASE 

Section 11.01. Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.02, the Company
shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to another Person (provided that a pledge of its assets pursuant to any Credit Facility shall be deemed
not to be a sale, conveyance, transfer or lease), unless: 
 (a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the
“Successor Company”), if not the Company, shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not the Company)
shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture; and 

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this
Indenture. 
 Section 11.02. Successor Corporation to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale,
conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Company, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of and accrued
and unpaid interest on all of the Notes, the due and punctual delivery or payment, as the case may be, of any consideration due upon conversion of the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Company, such Successor Company shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part, except in the case of a lease of all or
substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets. Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore
shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall
authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of 

  
 51 

 
the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued
shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution
hereof. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), upon compliance with this Article 11 the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any
successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11) may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as
obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale,
conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 

Section 11.03. Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Trustee. No consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease
shall be effective unless the Trustee shall receive as conclusive evidence an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel that any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a
supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Article 11. 

ARTICLE 12 

IMMUNITY OF INCORPORATORS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND
DIRECTORS 
 Section 12.01. Indenture and Notes Solely Corporate Obligations. No recourse for the payment
of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest on any Note, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Indenture or in any
supplemental indenture or in any Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, investment adviser, employee, agent, Officer, director or Subsidiary, as such, past,
present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty
or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Notes. 

ARTICLE 13 

CONVERSION OF NOTES 

Section 13.01. Conversion Privilege. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 13, each Holder
of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note (i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions
described in 

  
 52 

 
Section 13.01(b), at any time prior to June 15, 2019 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 13.01(b), and (ii) irrespective of the conditions
described in Section 13.01(b), on or after June 15, 2019 and prior to the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of 38.7162 shares of Common Stock
(subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13.04, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to the settlement provisions of Section 13.02, the “Conversion Obligation”). 

(b) (i) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, the Notes may be surrendered for
conversion during the five Business Day period immediately after any five consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request
by a Holder of Notes in accordance with this subsection (b)(i), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each such Trading Day. The
Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(i) and the definition of Trading Price set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall provide written notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent of the three
independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company pursuant to the definition of Trading Price, along with appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent shall have no obligation to determine the
Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Company has requested such determination; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request unless Holders of at least $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes provide
the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate, at which time the Company shall
instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to determine in the manner provided herein the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per Note is greater
than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate. If the Company does not instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes when
obligated as provided in the preceding sentence, or if the Company instructs the Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids and the Bid Solicitation Agent fails to make such determination, then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal
amount of Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each Trading Day of such failure. If the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the
Company shall so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee). If, at any time after the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater
than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the applicable Conversion Rate, the Company shall so notify the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee). 

 (ii) If, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, the Company elects to: 

(A) issue to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period
of not more than 45 calendar days 

  
 53 

 
after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock, at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the
Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance; or 

(B) distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock the Company’s assets, debt securities or rights to
purchase securities of the Company, which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day preceding the date of announcement
for such distribution, 
 then, in either case, the Company shall notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other
than the Trustee) at least 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time until the earlier of (1) the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and (2) the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not
otherwise convertible at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be surrendered for conversion if Holders participate, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the
Notes, in any of the transactions described in clauses (A) or (B) of this subsection (ii) without having to convert their Notes as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the
principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder. For purposes of Section 13.01(b)(ii)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock
at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining
the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such
consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.  
 (iii) If a transaction or event that constitutes a
Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the Company to repurchase the Notes
pursuant to Section 14.01, or if the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, or transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its assets, pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted into cash,
securities or other assets, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the date that is 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of the transaction (or, if later, the Business Day after the Company
gives notice of such transaction) until 35 Trading Days after the actual effective date of such transaction or, if such transaction also constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. The Company shall notify
Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) (i) as promptly as practicable following the date the Company publicly announces such transaction but in no event 

  
 54 

 
less than 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction (if the effective date of the transaction is known to the Company definitively at that time) or
(ii) if the Company does not have knowledge of such transaction at least 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction, within two Business Days of the date upon which the Company receives notice, or
otherwise becomes aware, of such transaction but in no event later than the actual effective date of such transaction. 
 (iv) Prior to the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2014 (and only during such
calendar quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar
quarter as reported to the Conversion Agent by the Company is greater than or equal to 130% of the Conversion Price on each applicable Trading Day. The Company shall determine at the beginning of each calendar quarter commencing after
September 30, 2014 whether the Notes may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with this clause (iv) and shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if not the Trustee) in writing if the Notes become convertible in accordance
with this clause (iv). 
 Section 13.02. Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion. 

(a) Subject to this Section 13.02, Section 13.03(b) and Section 13.07(a), upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall
pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, cash (“Cash Settlement”), shares of Common Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any
fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 13.02 (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any
fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 13.02 (“Combination Settlement”), at its election, as set forth in this Section 13.02. 

(i) All conversions occurring on or after June 15, 2019 shall be settled using the same Settlement Method. 

(ii) Prior to June 15, 2019, the Company shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions occurring on the same
Conversion Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions that occur on different Conversion Dates. 

(iii) If, in respect of any Conversion Date (or any conversions of Notes occurring during the period beginning on, and
including, June 15, 2019 and ending on, and including, the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, as the case may be), the Company elects to deliver a notice (the “Settlement Notice”) of the relevant
Settlement Method in respect of such Conversion Date (or such period, as the case may be), the Company, through the Trustee, shall deliver such Settlement Notice to converting Holders no later than the close of business on the Trading Day
immediately following the relevant Conversion Date (or, in the case of any conversions occurring on 

  
 55 

 
or after June 15, 2019, no later than June 15, 2019). If the Company does not elect a Settlement Method prior to the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the
Company shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement and the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation, and the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000
principal amount of Notes shall be equal to $1,000. Such Settlement Notice shall specify the relevant Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the relevant Settlement Notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar
Amount. If the Company delivers a Settlement Notice electing Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation but does not indicate a Specified Dollar Amount in such Settlement Notice, the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal
amount of Notes shall be deemed to be $1,000. 
 (iv) The cash, shares of Common Stock or combination of cash and shares of
Common Stock in respect of any conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed by the Company as follows: 

(A) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Physical Settlement, the
Company shall deliver to the converting Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date; 

(B) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Cash Settlement, the Company
shall pay to the converting Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted an amount in cash equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 40 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation
Period; and 
 (C) if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of
such conversion by Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of
the 40 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period. 
 (v) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable)
and the Daily Conversion Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last day of the Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the
case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of any fractional share, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may
be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination. 

  
 56 

 (b) Subject to Section 13.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a
Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (i) in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which
such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 13.02(h) and (ii) in the case of a Physical Note (1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of
Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such
Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by
appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and (4) if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest
Payment Date as set forth in Section 13.02(h). The Trustee (and, if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 13 on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of Conversion with
respect to any Notes may be surrendered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice to the Paying Agent in respect of such Notes and not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in
accordance with Section 14.02. 
 If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion
Obligation with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered. 

(c) A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion
Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above. Except as provided in Section 13.03(b) and in Section 13.07, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration
due in respect of the Conversion Obligation on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date, if the Company elects Physical Settlement, or on the third Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the
Observation Period, in the case of any other Settlement Method. If any shares of Common Stock are due to converting Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees,
certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary for the full number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the portion of the Company’s Conversion Obligation that consists of shares of
Common Stock, and, on or prior to such issuance, the Company shall give the Conversion Agent notice of the number of shares of Common Stock being so issued and the method by which the issuance shall take place. Any required funds due to a converting
Holder in connection with a Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement shall be delivered to the Paying Agent and such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 14.03. 

(d) In case any Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to
or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate 

  
 57 

 
principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service charge by the converting Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment
by the converting Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such conversion
being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such conversion. 
 (e) If a Holder submits a Note for
conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to be issued in a name other than
the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee
receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (f) Except as
provided in Section 13.04, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any shares issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14. 

(g) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation
on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee. 

(h) Upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any, except as set forth below.
The Company’s settlement of the Conversion Obligation shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Conversion Date. As a result,
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon a conversion of Notes into a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock,
accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Regular Record Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close
of business on such Regular Record Date will receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of
business on any Regular Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall
be required (1) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the
Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (3) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exist at the time of conversion with respect to such Note.  

(i) The Person in whose name the certificate for any shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion is registered shall be treated as a
stockholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date (if the Company elects to satisfy the related 

  
 58 

 
Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement) or the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (if the Company elects to satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Combination
Settlement), as the case may be, in each case solely for the purpose of receiving or participating in any dividend, distribution, issuance, share split or combination, tender or exchange offer or any other event that would lead to a Conversion Rate
adjustment as described in Section 13.04. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for conversion. 

(j) The Company shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of any
fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP on the relevant Conversion Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or based on the Daily VWAP on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (in the case
of Combination Settlement). For each Note surrendered for conversion, if the Company has elected Combination Settlement, the full number of shares that shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily
Settlement Amounts for the applicable Observation Period and any fractional shares remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash. 

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Holder shall be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion to
the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting Holder to become, directly or indirectly, a “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder) of more than 5.0% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time (the “Limitation”). Any purported delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Notes shall be void and have no effect to the
extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in the converting Holder becoming the beneficial owner of more than the Limitation. If any delivery of shares of Common Stock owed to a Holder upon conversion of Notes is not made, in
whole or in part, as a result of the Limitation, the Company’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such shares as promptly as practicable after any such converting Holder gives notice to the
Company that such delivery would not result in it being the beneficial owner of more than 5.0% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time. The Limitation shall no longer apply following the effective date of any Fundamental Change. 

 Section 13.03. Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole
Fundamental Changes. (a) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the
Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be
“in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the
Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the proviso in clause (b) of the definition thereof,
the 35th calendar day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change).  

  
 59 

 (b) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental
Change pursuant to Section 13.01(b)(iii), the Company shall, at its option, satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with Section 13.02; provided,
however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the
Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per
$1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Stock Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation shall be paid to Holders in cash on the third
Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify the Holders of Notes of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change and issue a press release announcing such Effective Date no later than five Business Days after such
Effective Date. 
 (c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased shall be
determined by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed to be
paid) per share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price
shall be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the
Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any
event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, during such five consecutive Trading Day period. 

(d) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate
of the Notes is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such
adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the
Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 13.04. 

  
 60 

 (e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares to be received per $1,000
principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 13.03 for each Stock Price and Effective Date set forth below:

 The exact Stock Prices and Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case: 

(i) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in
the table, the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based
on a 365-day year; 
 (ii) if the Stock Price is greater than $35.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as
the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and 

(iii) if the Stock Price is less than $22.46 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth
in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion exceed 44.5235 per $1,000 principal
amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 13.04. 
 (f) Nothing in this
Section 13.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 13.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change. 

Section 13.04. Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any
of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same
terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 13.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder. 

  
 61 

 (a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on
shares of its Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

 
 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such share split or share combination, as
applicable;
			
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or immediately after the effectiveness of such share split or share combination, as applicable;
			
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such share split or share combination, as applicable; and
			
	OS'	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

 Any adjustment made under this Section 13.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the
Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the effectiveness of such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 13.04(a) is declared but
not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or
distribution had not been declared. 
 (b) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options
or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the issuance date for such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported
Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following
formula: 
  
 

 
 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;

  
 62 

					
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
			
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
			
	X	 	=	 	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
			
	Y	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive
Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

 Any increase made under this Section 13.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants
are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the
Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock
actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred. 

For purposes of this Section 13.04(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or
purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of
such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or
conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. 

  
 63 

 (c) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness,
other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding (i) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an
adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 13.04(a) or Section 13.04(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash and (iii) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 13.04(c) shall
apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities of the Company, the “Distributed Property”), then the
Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  
 

 
 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
			
	SP0	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
			
	FMV	 	=	 	the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

 Any increase made under the portion of this Section 13.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of
business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note
shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive the Distributed Property, the amount of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such
Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this
Section 13.04(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over
the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. 

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 13.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution
on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S.
national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

 

  
 64 

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off;
			
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off;
			
	FMV0	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last
Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references therein to Common Stock were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the
Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and
			
	MP0	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur on the last Trading Day of the Valuation
Period but will be given effect as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off; provided that in respect of any conversion during the Valuation Period, references in the portion of this Section 13.04(c) related to
Spin-Offs to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off and the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. 

For purposes of this Section 13.04(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 13.11), rights, options or warrants distributed by the
Company to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Common Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the
occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of the Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of
the Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 13.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 13.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger
Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 13.04(c). If any such right, option or
warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different
securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights
(in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options
or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate
under this Section 13.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of 

  
 65 

 
any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate
shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though
it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants),
made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate
shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued. 
 For purposes of Section 13.04(a),
Section 13.04(b) and this Section 13.04(c), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 13.04(c) is applicable that also includes one or both of: 

(A) a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 13.04(a) is applicable (the “Clause A
Distribution”); or 
 (B) a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 13.04(b) is
applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”), 
 then (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A
Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 13.04(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this
Section 13.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment
required by Section 13.04(a) and Section 13.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall
be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to the open of
business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date” within the meaning of Section 13.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 13.04(b). 

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made by the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, other than a
regular, quarterly cash dividend that does not exceed $0.38 per share (the “Initial Dividend Threshold”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 

 
 

 

  
 66 

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	SP0	 	=	 	the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	T	 	=	 	the Initial Dividend Threshold; provided that if the dividend or distribution is not a regular quarterly cash dividend, the Initial Dividend Threshold shall be deemed to be zero; and
			
	C	 	=	 	the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of its Common Stock.

 The Initial Dividend Threshold shall be subject to adjustment in a manner inversely proportional to adjustments to the
Conversion Rate; provided that no adjustment shall be made to the Initial Dividend Threshold for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 13.04(d). 

Any increase pursuant to this Section 13.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or
distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as
defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder
would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution. 

(e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that
the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made
pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  
 

 
 where, 
  

					
	CR0	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

  
 67 

					
	CR'	 	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Trading Day immediately following the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
			
	AC	 	=	 	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
			
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such
tender or exchange offer);
			
	OS'	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or
exchange offer); and
			
	SP'	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 13.04(e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th
Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires but will be given effect as of the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange
offer expires; provided that in respect of any conversion within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references in this Section 13.04(e) with respect to 10
Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the date that such tender or exchange offer expires and the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. 

(f) Notwithstanding this Section 13.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes
effective on any Ex-Dividend Date, and a Holder that has converted its Notes on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock as of the related
Conversion Date as described under Section 13.02(i) based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the Conversion Rate adjustment provisions in this Section 13.04, the Conversion Rate adjustment
relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such converting Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related
dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment. 
 (g) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the
Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of its Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of its Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of its Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities. 

  
 68 

 (h) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of
this Section 13.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of The New York Stock Exchange, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20
Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, but subject to the same limitations set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company may (but is not
required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. The
Company will not take any action that would result in an adjustment of the Conversion Rate, pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 13.04, in such a manner as to result in the reduction of the Conversion Price
to less than the par value per share of the Common Stock. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall mail to the Holder of each Note at its last address appearing on the Note
Register a notice of the increase at least 15 days prior to the date the adjusted Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the adjusted Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect. 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 13, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted: 

(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of
dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan; 

(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or
future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries; 

(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable
or convertible security not described in clause (ii) of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued; 

(iv) solely for a change in the par value of the Common Stock or a change in the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation;
or 
 (v) for accrued and unpaid interest, if any. 

(j) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 13 shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten
thousandth (1/10,000) of a share. The Company shall not be required to make an adjustment in the Conversion Rate unless the adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. However, the Company shall carry forward any
adjustments that are less than 1% of the Conversion Rate and make such carried forward adjustment, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, on the Conversion Date for any Notes and on each Trading Day of any Observation Period
for any converted Notes. 

  
 69 

 (k) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file
with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee (and Conversion Agent, if applicable) shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee (and Conversion Agent, if applicable) shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion
Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth
the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder at its last address appearing on the Note Register of this Indenture. Failure to
deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment. 
 Section 13.05. Adjustments of
Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including an Observation
Period and the period for determining the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or
any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts
are to be calculated.  
 Section 13.06. Shares to Be Fully Paid. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive
rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of
shares, all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder and that Physical Settlement is applicable). 

Section 13.07. Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock.  

(a) In the case of: 

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or
combination or a change solely in par value), 
 (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company, 

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the Company and the Company’s
Subsidiaries’ consolidated assets or 
 (iv) any statutory share exchange, 

  
 70 

 in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock then outstanding would be converted into, or exchanged
for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to convert each $1,000
principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of
a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property”, with each “unit of Reference Property”
meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing
Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(b) providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided,
however, that at and after the effective time of the Merger Event (A) the Company shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon conversion of Notes
in accordance with Section 13.02 and (B) (I) any amount payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 13.02 shall continue to be payable in cash, (II) any shares of Common Stock that the Company would
have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 13.02 shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of shares of Common Stock would have been
entitled to receive in such Merger Event and (III) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property. 

If the Merger Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of
consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration
received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause
(i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. If the holders
receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions that occur after the effective date of such Merger Event (x) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal
to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 13.03), multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Merger Event and (y) the Company shall
satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date.  

Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly
equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 13. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of
a Person other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other 

  
 71 

 
Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Notes as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing,
including to the extent required by the Board of Directors and practicable the provisions providing for the purchase rights set forth in Article 14. 

(b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 13.07, the Company
shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefore, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any
adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed
to each Holder, at its address appearing on the Note Register provided for in this Indenture, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. 

(c) The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 13.07 in all material
respects. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Notes to convert its Notes into cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, as set forth in Section 13.01 and
Section 13.02 prior to the effective date of such Merger Event. 
 (d) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to
successive Merger Events. 
 (e) In connection with any Merger Event, the Initial Dividend Threshold shall be subject to adjustment as
described in clause (i), clause (ii) or clause (iii) below, as the case may be. 
 (i) In the case of a Merger
Event in which the Reference Property (determined, as appropriate, pursuant to subsection (a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed entirely of shares of common stock (the “Merger Common
Stock”), the Initial Dividend Threshold at and after the effective time of such Merger Event will be equal to (x) the Initial Dividend Threshold immediately prior to the effective time of such Merger Event, divided by
(y) the number of shares of Merger Common Stock that a holder of one share of Common Stock would receive in such Merger Event (such quotient rounded down to nearest cent). 

(ii) In the case of a Merger Event in which the Reference Property (determined, as appropriate, pursuant to subsection
(a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed in part of shares of Merger Common Stock, the Initial Dividend Threshold at and after the effective time of such Merger Event will be equal to (x) the Initial
Dividend Threshold immediately prior to the effective time of such Merger Event, multiplied by (y) the Merger Valuation Percentage for such Merger Event (such product rounded down to nearest cent). 

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Merger Event in which the Reference Property (determined, as appropriate,
pursuant to subsection (a) above and excluding any dissenters’ appraisal rights) is composed entirely of consideration other than shares of common stock, the Initial Dividend Threshold at and after the effective time of such Merger Event
will be equal to zero. 

  
 72 

 Section 13.08. Certain Covenants. (a) The Company covenants that all
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than those created by the Holder) with respect to the issue thereof. 

(b) The Company covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require
registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission,
secure such registration or approval, as the case may be. 
 (c) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be
listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system the Company will list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Notes. 
 Section 13.09. Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be
under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or
extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be
accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee and any
other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or
other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 13.07 relating either to the kind
or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 13.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but,
subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers’ Certificate (which the
Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by
Section 13.01(b) has 

  
 73 

 
occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in
Section 13.01(b) with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in Section 13.01(b). 

Section 13.10. Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:  

(a) action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 13.04 or
Section 13.11; 
 (b) Merger Event; or 

(c) voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; 

then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Indenture), the Company shall cause to be filed
with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to be mailed to each Holder at its address appearing on the Note Register, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record
are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the date on which such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of
which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, if any. Failure to give such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. 

Section 13.11. Stockholder Rights Plans. To the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect upon conversion of the
Notes, each share of Common Stock, if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if
any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such stockholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. If at the time of conversion, however, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with
the provisions of the applicable stockholder rights plan so that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of Common Stock, if any, issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of
separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock Distributed Property as provided in Section 13.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such
rights. 
 Section 13.12. Limit on Issuance of Shares of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Indenture, if an event occurs (including pursuant 

  
 74 

 
to Section 13.03 and subsections Section 13.04(b), Section 13.04(c), Section 13.04(d), Section 13.04(e) and Section 13.04(h) of Section 13.04) that would result
in an increase in the Conversion Rate by an amount in excess of limitations imposed by any shareholder approval rules or listing standards of any national or regional securities exchange (including the New York Stock Exchange) that are applicable to
the Company, the Company will, at its option, either obtain stockholder approval of any issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes in excess of such limitations or deliver cash in lieu of any shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable
upon conversions in excess of such limitations based on the Daily VWAP on each Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period in respect of which, in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock, the Company delivers cash pursuant to this
Section 13.12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent required by the New York Stock Exchange, the Company will obtain stockholder approval prior to (i) taking any action described in Section 13.04(h) that
would result in delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes in excess of limitations imposed by the New York Stock Exchange that are applicable to the Company, (ii) engaging in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would result in
delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes in excess of limitations imposed by the New York Stock Exchange that are applicable to the Company or (iii) electing Combination Settlement. 

ARTICLE 14 

REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT OPTION OF
HOLDERS 
 Section 14.01. Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change.
(a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days or more than 35 Business Days following the date of the Fundamental Change Company
Notice (with such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date being subject to postponement by a number of days by which the Company’s Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice is delivered to Holders beyond the deadline set forth in Section 14.01(c)),
at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of
accrued and unpaid interest to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 14.  

(b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 14.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon: 

(i) delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the
Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and 

  
 75 

 (ii) delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent
at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in
compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor. 

The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state: 

(i) in the case of Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase; 

(ii) the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and

 (iii) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture; 
 provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice must comply with appropriate
Depositary procedures. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent a Fundamental
Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 14.01 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 14.02. 

The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of
withdrawal thereof. 
 (c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the date that the Fundamental Change occurred, the Company shall
provide to all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the effective date of the
Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. Such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.
Simultaneously with providing such notice, the Company shall publish a notice containing the information set forth in the Fundamental Change Company Notice in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York or publish such information on
the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify: 

(i) the events causing the Fundamental Change; 

  
 76 

 (ii) the date of the Fundamental Change; 

(iii) the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article 14; 

(iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price; 

(v) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; 

(vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable; 

(vii) if applicable, the Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate; 

(viii) if applicable, that the Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered by a
Holder may be converted only if the Holder withdraws the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and 

(ix) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes. 

No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the
validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 14.01. 
 At the Company’s request,
the Trustee shall give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental
Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a
Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been
cancelled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. 

Section 14.02. Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. (a) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be
withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 14.02 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying: 
 (i) the principal amount of the Notes with
respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, 

  
 77 

 (ii) if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the Note in
respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and 
 (iii) the principal amount, if any, of such Note that
remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000; 

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary. 

Section 14.03. Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. (a) The Company, or its designee, will deposit with the
Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04) on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. If any such designee does not deposit an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of
such Notes by the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence and the Company does not otherwise deposit such an amount by such deadline, such failure by the designee shall be treated for all purposes of this Indenture as failure by the
Company to make such deposit. In addition, failure by the Company to designate a designee to make the deposit required by the second immediately preceding sentence shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to so deposit such an amount of
money. Subject to extension if necessary to comply with the provisions of the Investment Company Act, payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date with respect to such Note (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 14.01) and (ii) the time of
book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 14.01 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes
entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided, however, that payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee
shall, promptly after a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of the Notes, or portions thereof, that the Company is obligated to purchase on the applicable
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date.  
 (b) If by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the
Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of all the Notes or portions thereof for which Holders have surrendered and not withdrawn Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notices on such 

  
 78 

 
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, then (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes
has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent) and (iii) all other rights of the Holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price upon delivery or
transfer of the Notes). 
 (c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 14.01, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unrepurchased portion of the Note surrendered. 

Section 14.04. Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes. In connection with any repurchase offer
pursuant to a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, the Company will, if required: 
 (a) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4,
Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable; 
 (b) file a Schedule TO or any successor
or similar schedule; and 
 (c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Company to
repurchase the Notes; 
 in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 14 to be exercised in the time and in the manner
specified in this Article 14. 
 ARTICLE 15 

NO REDEMPTION 

Section 15.01. No Redemption. The Notes shall not be redeemable by the Company prior to the Maturity Date, and no sinking
fund is provided for the Notes. 
 ARTICLE 16 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 

Section 16.01. Provisions Binding on Company’s Successors. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements of

Section 2.07, Section 10.04 and Section 14.03 as fully to all intents and purposes as though the authenticating agent 

  
 81 

 
had been expressly authorized by this Indenture and those Sections to authenticate and deliver Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication and delivery of Notes by the
authenticating agent shall be deemed to be authentication and delivery of such Notes “by the Trustee” and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent shall be deemed to satisfy any
requirement hereunder or in the Notes for the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. Such authenticating agent shall at all times be a Person eligible to serve as trustee hereunder pursuant to Section 7.08. 

Any corporation or other entity into which any authenticating agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any

 Any authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written
notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any authenticating agent by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a
notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor authenticating agent (which may be the Trustee), shall give written
notice of such appointment to the Company and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Note Register. 

The Company agrees to pay to the authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services although the Company may
terminate the authenticating agent, if it determines such agent’s fees to be unreasonable. 
 The provisions of Section 7.02,
Section 7.03, Section 7.04, Section 8.03 and this Section 16.10 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent. 
 If
an authenticating agent is appointed pursuant to this Section, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 16.14. Force Majeure. 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 stoppages, 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 that are consistent
with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 

Section 16.15. Calculations. Except as otherwise provided in Section 13.01(b)(i), the Company shall be responsible for
making all calculations called for under the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock, accrued interest payable on the Notes and the Conversion Rate of the Notes.
The Company shall make all these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, the Company’s calculations shall be final and binding on Holders of Notes. The Company shall provide a schedule of its calculations to each of the Trustee
and the Conversion Agent, and each of the Trustee and Conversion Agent is entitled to rely conclusively upon the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent verification. The Trustee will forward the Company’s calculations
to any Holder of Notes upon the request of that Holder at the sole cost and expense of the Company. 
 Section 16.16.
No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. Other than the Notes and any supplemental indenture hereto, this Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of
any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture. 
 Section 16.17.
U.S.A. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required
to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information
as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE] 

TPG SPECIALTY LENDING, INC. 
 4.50%
Convertible Senior Note due 2019 
 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 4.50%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”), limited to the aggregate principal amount of $115,000,000, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of June 10, 2014 (the
“Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the
Indenture. 
 In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and
interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to
the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture. 
 Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will
make all payments in respect of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The
Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the
Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures
modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences. 
 No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the principal of, the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Price, if applicable, of, accrued and unpaid interest on and amounts due upon conversion of this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money or other consideration herein prescribed. 

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At the
office or agency of the Company referred 

  
 A-6 

 
to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized
denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder
of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange. 

The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund or otherwise. 

Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for
cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. 

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of
certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into cash,
shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture. 

Terms used in this Note and defined in the Indenture are used herein as therein defined.

2. Purchase of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers. 

(a) The Company agrees to issue and sell the Initial Notes to the several Initial Purchasers as provided in this Agreement, and each Initial
Purchaser, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective aggregate principal amount of
Initial Notes set forth opposite such Initial Purchaser’s name in Schedule 1 hereto at the price (the “Purchase Price”) set forth in Schedule 1 hereto.

 In addition, the Company agrees to issue and sell the Option Notes to the several Initial
Purchasers as provided in this Agreement, and the Initial Purchasers, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, shall have the option to purchase, severally and
not jointly, from the Company the Option Notes at the Purchase Price. 
 If any Option Notes are to be purchased, the aggregate principal
amount of Option Notes to be purchased by each Initial Purchaser shall be the aggregate principal amount of Option Notes which bears the same ratio to the aggregate principal amount of Option Notes being purchased as the aggregate principal amount
of Initial Notes set forth opposite the name of such Initial Purchaser in Schedule 1 hereto (or such number increased as set forth in Section 11 hereof) bears to the aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes being purchased from the Company
by the several Initial Purchasers. 
 The Initial Purchasers may exercise the option to purchase Option Notes at any time in whole, or from
time to time in part, on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Offering Memorandum, by written notice from the Representatives to the Company. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate principal amount of Option Notes as to which the
option is being exercised and the date and time when the Option Notes are to be delivered and paid for, which may be the same date and time as the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) but shall not be earlier than the Closing Date or later than the
tenth full business day (as hereinafter defined) after the date of such notice (unless such time and date are postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof). Any such notice shall be given at least three business days prior
to the date and time of delivery specified therein.

resale on the terms set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, as in the judgment of the Representatives is advisable. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may offer and sell Notes to or

the account specified by the Company to the Representatives in the case of the Initial Notes, at the offices of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, One New York Plaza, New York, NY 10004, at 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on
June 10, 2014, or at such other time or place on the same or such other date, not later than the fifth business day thereafter, as the Representatives and the Company may agree upon in writing or, in the case of the Option Notes, on the date
and at the time and place specified by the Representatives in the written notice of the Initial Purchasers’ election to purchase such Option Notes. The time and date of such payment for the Initial Notes is referred to herein as the
“Closing Date”, and the time and date for such payment for the Option Notes, if other than the Closing Date, is herein referred to as the “Additional Closing Date.” 

Payment for the Notes to be purchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall be made against delivery
to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Initial Purchasers of the Notes to be purchased on such date with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the sale of such Notes duly paid by the Company. Delivery of the Notes
shall be made through the facilities of DTC unless the Representatives shall otherwise instruct. 
 (d) The Company acknowledges and agrees
that the Initial Purchasers are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s-length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of Notes contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the
offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representatives nor any other Initial Purchaser is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax,
investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult 

  
 3 

 
with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Initial
Purchasers shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto. Any review by the Initial Purchasers of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed
solely for the benefit of the Initial Purchasers and shall not be on behalf of the Company. 
 (e) Representations and Warranties
by the Initial Purchasers. The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers intend to offer the Notes for resale on the terms set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum. Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not
jointly, represents and warrants with the Company as of the date hereof, as of the Applicable Time, as of the Closing Date referred to in Section 2(c) hereof, and as of each Additional Closing Date (if any) referred to in Section 2(c)
hereof, and agrees with the Company, as follows that:

“QIB”) within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act with such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters as are necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes; 
 (ii) neither it, nor any person
acting on its behalf, has solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and neither it, nor any person acting on its behalf, will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Notes by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising
within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, other than by means of a Permitted General Solicitation (as defined in Section 3(r)
below); and 
 (iii) it has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell,
the Notes as part of their distribution of securities in connection with the Offering except to persons whom it reasonably believes to be QIBs in transactions pursuant to Rule 144A and in connection with each such sale, it has taken or will take
reasonable steps to ensure that the purchaser of the Notes is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A.

Further Agreements of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with each Initial Purchaser that: 
 (a)
Delivery of Copies. The Company has delivered to each Initial Purchaser, without charge, as many copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum as such Initial Purchaser reasonably requested. The Company will furnish to each Initial Purchaser,
without charge, such number of copies of the Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented) as such Initial Purchaser may reasonably request. 

(b) Amendments or Supplements. Before using, authorizing, approving, referring to or distributing any amendment or
supplement to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers a copy of the proposed amendment or supplement for review and will not use, authorize,
approve, refer to or distribute any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Representatives reasonably object in a timely manner. 

(c) Marketing Materials. Before using, authorizing, approving, referring to or distributing any Marketing Materials,
the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers a copy of such materials for review and will not use, authorize, approve, refer to or distribute any such materials to which the Representatives reasonably object
in a timely manner. 
 (d) Notice to the Representatives. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly, and
confirm such advice in writing, (i) of the issuance by any governmental or regulatory authority of any order preventing or suspending the use of the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Marketing Materials or the Offering Memorandum or the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose; (ii) of the occurrence of any event or development at any time prior to the completion of the offering of the Initial Notes, as a result of which the Pricing Disclosure Package, any
Marketing Materials or the Offering Memorandum, as then amended or 

  
 19 

 
supplemented, would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing
when the Pricing Disclosure Package, such Marketing Materials or the Offering Memorandum is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading; (iii) of the receipt of any oral or written comments from the Commission, whether or not related to the
offering of the Notes; and (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notice with respect to any suspension of the qualification of the Notes for offer and sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose; and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order preventing or suspending the use of any of the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Marketing Materials or the Offering Memorandum or suspending
any such qualification of the Notes and, if any such order is issued, will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof. 

(e) Ongoing Compliance. (1) If at any time prior to the completion of the offering of the Initial Notes
(i) any event or development shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Offering Memorandum as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Offering Memorandum is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with law,
the Company will immediately notify the Initial Purchasers thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to paragraph (b) above, furnish to the Initial Purchasers and to such dealers as the Representatives may designate such amendments or
supplements to the Offering Memorandum as may be necessary so that the statements in the Offering Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Offering Memorandum is delivered to a purchaser,
be misleading or so that the Offering Memorandum will comply with law and (2) if at any time prior to the Closing Date (i) any event or development shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Pricing Disclosure Package as
then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Pricing Disclosure Package
is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Pricing Disclosure Package to comply with law, the Company will immediately notify the Initial Purchasers thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject
to paragraph (b) above, furnish to the Initial Purchasers and to such dealers as the Representatives may designate such amendments or supplements to the Pricing Disclosure Package as may be necessary so that the statements in the Pricing
Disclosure Package as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances existing when the Pricing Disclosure Package is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Pricing Disclosure Package will comply with law. 

(f) Underlying Securities. The Company will reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights,
shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to satisfy all obligations to issue the Underlying Securities upon conversion of the Notes. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Underlying Securities to
be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and to maintain such listing. 
 (g) Supplying Information. While the
Notes remain outstanding and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, the Company will, during any period in which the Company is not subject to and in compliance with Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, furnish to holders of the Notes, prospective purchasers of the Securities designated by such holders and securities analysts, in each case upon request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4)
under the Securities Act. 

  
 20 

 (h) No Integration. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates (as
defined in Rule 501(b) of Regulation D) will, directly or through any agent, sell, offer for sale, solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of, any security (as defined in the Securities Act), that is or will be integrated with the
sale of the Notes in a manner that would require registration of the Notes under the Securities Act. 
 (i) No General
Solicitation. None of the Company or any of its affiliates or any other person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to which no covenant is given) will solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Notes by means
of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, other than by means of
Permitted General Solicitation. 
 (j) No Resales by the Company. During the period from the Closing Date until one
year after the Closing Date or each Additional Closing Date, if applicable, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to, resell any of the Notes that constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act that have been reacquired by any of them, except for Notes purchased by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and resold in a transaction registered under the Securities Act. 

(k) Blue Sky Compliance. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with the Representatives,
to qualify the Notes for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives shall reasonably request and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for distribution of the Notes;
provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or other entity or as a dealer in securities in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify, (ii) file any
general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not otherwise so subject. 

(l) Earning Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders and the Representatives as
soon as practicable an earning statement that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Commission promulgated thereunder covering a period of at least twelve months beginning with the first fiscal
quarter of the Company occurring after the date of the Offering Memorandum; provided that the Company will be deemed to have complied with such requirement by filing such an earning statement on the Commission’s Electronic Data
Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (or any successor system) (“EDGAR”). 
 (m) Clear Market. For a
period of 90 days after the date of the Offering Memorandum, the Company will not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to
purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for Common Stock, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing, or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of the Stock or any such other securities, whether any such transaction described in 

  
 21 

 
clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Goldman, Sachs & Co. on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, other than (A) the sale of the Notes to be sold hereunder (including the Option Notes) or the issuance of
Underlying Securities upon conversion of the Notes and (B) the issuance of shares of Common Stock issued or delivered in connection with the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is not then an
Emerging Growth Company, then if (1) during the last 17 days of the 90-day restricted period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or (2) prior to the expiration of the
90-day restricted period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 90-day period, the restrictions imposed by this Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of
the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. 

(n) Use of Proceeds. The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes in all material respects as
described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the heading “Use of Proceeds”. 

(o) No Stabilization. Except as described in Section 3(pp) herein, the Company will not take, directly or
indirectly, without giving effect to any activities by the Initial Purchasers, any action designed to or that would reasonably be expected to cause or result in any stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock. 

(p) Exchange Listing. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to list for quotation, subject to notice of
issuance, shares of the Underlying Securities on the New York Stock Exchange. 
 (q) Reports. For a period of one
year from the date of this Agreement, so long as the Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Representatives, as soon as commercially reasonable after the date they are available, copies of all reports or other communications
(financial or other) furnished to holders of the Notes, and copies of any reports and financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission or any national securities exchange or automatic quotation system; provided the Company will
be deemed to have furnished such reports and financial statements to the Representatives to the extent they are filed on EDGAR. 

(r) Emerging Growth Company. The Company will promptly notify the Representatives if the Company ceases to be an
Emerging Growth Company at any time prior to the later of (i) completion of the distribution of Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act and (ii) completion of the 90-day restricted period referred to in Section 5(m) hereof.

 (s) Business Development Company. The Company, during a period of two years from the date of the Offering
Memorandum, will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain its status as a business development company under the Investment Company Act; provided, however, that the Company may change the nature of its business so as to cease to
be, or withdraw its election to be treated as, a business development company with the approval of its Board of Directors and a vote of stockholders as required by Section 58 of the Investment Company Act. 

  
 22 

 (t) Regulated Investment Company. The Company will use commercially
reasonable efforts to maintain in effect its qualification and election to be treated as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code for each taxable year during which it is a business development company under the Investment
Company Act. 
 (u) Annual Compliance Reviews. The Company will retain qualified accountants and qualified tax
experts (i) to test procedures and conduct annual compliance reviews designed to determine compliance with the regulated investment company provisions of the Code and the Company’s exempt status under the Investment Company Act and
(ii) to otherwise assist the Company in monitoring appropriate accounting systems and procedures designed to determine compliance with the regulated investment company provisions of the Code and the Company’s exempt status under the
Investment Company Act. 
 (v) Legends. Each of the Notes will bear, to the extent applicable, the legend contained
in “Transfer Restrictions” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum for the time period and upon the other terms stated therein. 

6. Certain Agreements of the Initial Purchasers. Each Initial Purchaser hereby represents, warrants and agrees that without the prior
written consent of the Company, it has not used, authorized use of, referred to or participated in the planning for the use of, and will not use, authorize the use of, refer to or participate in the planning for the use of, any written information

the effect of which in the judgment of the Representatives makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Notes on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in

respect to such matters as the Representatives may reasonably request, and such counsel shall have received such documents and information as they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.

 25 

 8. Indemnification and Contribution. 

(a) Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its
affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages
and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented legal fees and other reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are
incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any road show as defined in Rule
433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”), any Marketing Materials or the Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of,
or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser
through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Initial Purchaser consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below. 

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph
(a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any
information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any road show, any
Marketing Materials or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Initial Purchaser consists of
the following information in the Offering Memorandum furnished on behalf of each Initial Purchaser: the marketing names of the Initial Purchasers set forth on such cover page, and under the caption “Plan of Distribution;” the legal names
of the Initial Purchasers and the information in the first and second paragraphs under “Price Stabilization, Short Positions.” 

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand
shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom
such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph (a) or
(b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (including through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person
shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified
the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the
Indemnified Person in such proceeding and shall pay the 

  
 26 

 
reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person, unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed
within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition
to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interest between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be
liable for the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such reasonable and documented fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as
they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason
of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel
as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying
Person of such request and, (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the
Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such
settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does
not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. 
 (d)
Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each
Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers on the other, from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers on the other, in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial
Purchasers on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Notes and the total related discounts and commissions received by the
Initial Purchasers in 

  
 27 

 
connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Offering Memorandum, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Notes. The relative fault of the Company, on the
one hand, and the Initial Purchasers on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to paragraph (d) above were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this
Section 8, in no event shall an Initial Purchaser be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total related discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser with respect to the offering of the Notes
exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to paragraphs
(d) and (e) of this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint. 

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 paragraphs (a) through (e) are not exclusive and
shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. 
 9.
Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto. 

10. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, if after
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Option Notes, prior to the Additional Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by either of the
New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial
banking activities shall have been declared by U.S. federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within
or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Notes on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing
Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum. 

  
 28 

 11. Defaulting Initial Purchaser. 

(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Initial Purchaser defaults on its obligation to purchase
the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Notes by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this
Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Notes, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to
procure other persons reasonably satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase such Notes on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion
of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum
that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this
Section 11, purchases Notes that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase. 
 (b) If, after giving effect to any
arrangements for the purchase of the Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Notes that remain
unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each
non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the aggregate principal amount of Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Initial Purchaser’s pro rata share (based on the aggregate principal amount of
Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase on such date) of the Notes of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made. 

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the
non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Notes that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, exceeds one-eleventh
of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement or, with respect to any Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the
Initial Purchasers to purchase Notes on the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11 shall
be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 12 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 8 hereof shall not terminate and
shall remain in effect. 
 (d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the
Company or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default. 
 12. Payment of Expenses.  

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay or
cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the 

  
 29 

 
performance of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Notes and any stamp,
issuance, transfer or other similar taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation and printing of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, any Pricing Disclosure Package, any Marketing Materials and the Offering
Memorandum (including all amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent accountants; (iv) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the registration or qualification of the Notes under the state or foreign securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate with the prior approval of the Company (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (including the related reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Initial Purchasers); (v) the cost of preparing stock certificates, if applicable, in connection with the
issuance and sale of any Underlying Securities; (vi) the costs and charges of any transfer agent and any registrar in connection with the issuance and sale of any Underlying Securities; (vii) all expenses incurred by the Company in
connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors, provided, however, that the Initial Purchasers shall be responsible for 50% of the third-party costs of any chartered private aircraft incurred in connection with
such road show; (viii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee with respect to the Notes; and (ix) all expenses and application fees related to the listing of any Underlying Securities on the New York Stock Exchange. It is, however,
understood that except as provided in this Section 12 or in Section 8 of this Agreement, the Initial Purchasers shall pay all of their own costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of their counsel, any
advertising expenses connected with any offers they make and 50% of the third-party costs of any chartered private aircraft incurred in connection with the road show and all travel, lodging and other expenses of the Initial Purchasers incurred by
them in connection with any road show. 
 (b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 (other than as a result
of a termination pursuant to clauses (i), (iii) or (iv) of Section 10), (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Notes for delivery to the Initial Purchasers (other than as a result of a termination pursuant to
Section 11 or clauses (i), (iii) or (iv) of Section 10 or the default by one or more of the Initial Purchasers in its or their respective obligations hereunder) or (iii) the Initial Purchasers decline to purchase the Notes
for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company agrees to reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the
Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby. 
 13. Persons Entitled to Benefit of
Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof. Nothing in this
Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Notes from any Initial Purchaser shall be
deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase. 
 14. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution,
representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Adviser and the Initial Purchasers contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Adviser or the Initial Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate
delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Notes and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, the Adviser or the
Initial Purchasers. 
 15. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided,
the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City; and
(c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.
