Gregory, Jr.        Name: Andrew J. Gregory, Jr.        Title: Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer       By: /s/ Allan E. Kamensky        Name: Allan E.

[Reverse of Note]  5.200% Senior Note due 2025  Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless  otherwise indicated.  1. INDENTURE. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of a series of Securities under  the Senior Indenture dated as of February 13, 2012 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and The  Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). The terms of the Notes  include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust  Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are initially limited in  aggregate principal amount to $350,000,000.    2. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. The Notes may not be redeemed by the Company prior to  February 11, 2023.  At any time and from time to time, on or after February 11, 2023, and prior to July  11, 2025 (one month prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company will  have the option to redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of  (i)(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest  thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a  semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate  plus thirty-five (35) basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (ii) 100% of  the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest  thereon to the redemption date.     On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from  time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued  and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.    “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in  accordance with the following two paragraphs.  The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such  time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve  System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent  day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of  Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor  designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities– Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as  applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption  date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15  exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on  H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately  longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual  number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury  constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant  maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant  maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or  years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.  If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication  is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the  semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding  such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par  Call Date, as applicable.  If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are  two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a  maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company  

 

shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or  more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury  securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more  United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the  average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time.  In  determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of  the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices  (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury  security, and rounded to three decimal places.     The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and  binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.    Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance  with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each  holder of Notes to be redeemed. Any such notice of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one  or more conditions precedent that must be satisfied prior to our obligation to redeem the Notes subject to such notice  of redemption, including, but not limited to, completion of an equity offering, refinancing or other corporation  transaction.   In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by  such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of  $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that  relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a  principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Note  upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another  depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the  depositary.  Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will  cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.    3. NO MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Notes shall not be subject to any mandatory  redemption, sinking fund or analogous provision, and shall not be repayable at the option of a Holder  thereof prior to maturity.    4. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust  Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company  may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder.    5. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in fully registered book- entry form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess  thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged solely as provided in the  Indenture. The Company and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish  appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Company may require a Holder to pay any  taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not (i) exchange or  register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or  (ii) exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part.    6. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The person in whose name any Note shall be registered  may be deemed and treated as the absolute owner of such Note for all purposes.    7. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions set forth  in the Indenture, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the  Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Any existing  

 

Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes (other than  any Default in the payment of principal or interest on the Note or in respect of a covenant or provision  of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each  outstanding Note affected) may be waived, including by way of amendment, with the consent of the  Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Without the consent  of any Holder of a Note, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the  Notes (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the Indenture; provided that such  amendments or supplements shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders; (ii) to  comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, relating to a merger or consolidation or sale of all or  substantially all of the Company’s assets; (iii) to comply with any requirements of the Securities and  Exchange Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture  Act; (iv) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment of a successor Trustee and to add  to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the  administration of the trusts by more than one Trustee, pursuant to the requirements of the Indenture;  (v) to establish the form or forms or terms of Securities of any series or of the coupons appertaining to  such Securities as permitted by the Indenture; (vi) to provide for uncertificated or Unregistered  Securities and to make all appropriate changes for such purpose; (vii) to conform the terms of the Notes  and the Indenture to the terms of the prospectus supplement pursuant to which the Notes were offered  for sale and (viii) to make any change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any  Holder.    8. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. Each of the following is an Event of Default in respect of  the Notes: (i) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of the Notes when the same  becomes due and payable at maturity, upon acceleration, redemption or mandatory repurchase, or  otherwise; (ii) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on the Notes when the same becomes  due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 30 days; (iii) the Company defaults in the  performance of or breaches any other covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture with  respect to the Notes and such default or breach continues for a period of 90 consecutive days after  written notice to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of  25% or more in aggregate principal amount of the Notes specifying such default or breach and requiring  it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture; or (iv) certain  events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company.  In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the  Company, the principal amount of all outstanding Notes and any interest accrued thereon will become due and payable  without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the  Company or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Company  and the Trustee may declare the principal amount of all outstanding Notes, and any interest accrued thereon, to be due  and payable.  Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain  limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee  in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to matters relating to the Notes. The Trustee may withhold from  Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal or  interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.    9. GOVERNING LAW. THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE, AND ANY CLAIM,  CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE AND THE  INDENTURE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE  LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE, AND  EACH HOLDER OF A NOTE BY ITS ACCEPTANCE THEREOF, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY  WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL  RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR  INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE  TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
