at the Company’s discretion. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent and waiver or other Act may be sought or given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of registered
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of 

  
 -10-

proportion of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the registered Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of such series Outstanding shall be computed as of such record date. 
 (d) The ownership of
registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be proved by the Dated Subordinated Debt Security Register. 
 (e) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Dated Subordinated Debt Security and the Holder of every Dated
Subordinated Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not
notation of such action is made upon such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or such other Dated Subordinated Debt Security. 

Section 1.05. Notices, etc. to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (a) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to the Trustee at
its Corporate Trust Office, or 
 (b) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, addressed to it at the address of its registered office specified in the first paragraph of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
Indenture or faxed to +44 20 7155 9000 (unless another address has been previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company, in which case at the last such address) marked “Attention: Company Secretary”. 

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, Portable
Document Format (PDF), facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received from the Company an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to give such
instructions or directions and containing the titles and specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company
elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be
deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding a conflict or inconsistency between such
instructions and a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee
acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

 Section 1.06. Notice to Holders; Waiver. When this Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided), in the case of Global Securities, if given in accordance with the applicable procedures of the
Depositary and, in the case of all Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, if given in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a registered Dated Subordinated Debt Security affected by such event in the manner and to the
extent provided in Section 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to reports pursuant to Section 7.03(a) of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. 
 For so long as the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series are represented
by Global Securities, the Company will deliver a copy of all notices with respect to such series to the Depositary for such Dated Subordinated Debt Security (or its designee). 
 When notice to Holders of registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall
affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice,
either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be determined by the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 
 Section 1.07. Conflict with Trust Indenture
Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this
Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. If at any future time
any provision required to be included herein by the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date as of which this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture was executed or any limitation imposed by the Trust Indenture Act at such date on any
provision otherwise included herein would not be so required or imposed (in whole or in part) if this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture were executed at such future time, the Company and the Trustee may enter into one or more indentures
supplemental hereto pursuant to Section 9.01 to change or eliminate (in whole or in part) such provision or limitation of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture in conformity with the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in force, except that (subject to Article Nine) no provision or limitation required to be included herein by Sections 310(a)(1) and (a)(2), 315(a), (c), (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (e), 316(a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B), (a)(2), (a) (last sentence) and
(b) of the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date as of which this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture was executed may be so changed or eliminated.

 Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities and any Coupons shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any two of the following: any of its Authorized Officers or any Director or Vice President in the TES, Long Term Unsecured Funding/Capital section (or any
successor section thereto) of Barclays Treasury. The signature of any of these officers on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or the Coupons may be manual or facsimile. Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of
such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of
this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, the Company may deliver Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery
of such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. In authenticating such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and accepting the
additional responsibilities under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture in relation to such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that the form and terms thereof have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, and complying with
Section 1.02. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities if the issue of
such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or any Coupons and this Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Each
registered Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Dated Subordinated Debt
Security or Coupon appertaining thereto shall be entitled to any benefit under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Dated Subordinated Debt Security a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
Dated Subordinated Debt Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon is entitled to the benefits of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Dated Subordinated Debt Security to the Trustee for cancellation as
provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture such Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the
benefits of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture.

 Section 3.04. Temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. Pending the
preparation of definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in lieu of which they are issued, which Dated Subordinated Debt Securities may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced. Temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities may
be issued as registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in any authorized denomination, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities may
determine, all as evidenced by such execution. 
 If temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series are issued, the
Company will cause, if so required by the terms of such temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of such series, the temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series containing identical terms and provisions upon
surrender of the temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series (including any and all unmatured Coupons or matured Coupons in default attached thereto) at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series,
without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a like
aggregate principal amount of definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series of authorized denominations containing identical terms and provisions. Until so exchanged, unless otherwise provided therein or in a supplemental
indenture relating thereto, the temporary Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits (but shall be subject to all the limitations of rights) under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
Indenture as definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series. 
 Section 3.05. Registration, Registration
of Transfer and Exchange. 
 (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register
(the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Dated Subordinated Debt Security Register”) in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and of transfers of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Dated Subordinated Debt
Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and transfers of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities as herein provided. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security of a series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount. 

  
 -21-

 At the option of the Holder, Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series may be
exchanged for other Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to be exchanged at such office or
agency. Whenever any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities which the Holder making
the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Dated Subordinated Debt Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, as the Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every Dated Subordinated Debt Security presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Dated Subordinated Debt
Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall
be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration
of transfer or exchange of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 not involving any transfer. 
 If the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or
exchange any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of the mailing of a notice of
redemption of any such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities selected for redemption under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Dated Subordinated
Debt Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security being redeemed in part. 
 (b) Except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of registered Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of such series of other authorized denominations containing identical terms and provisions. Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to be exchanged shall be surrendered at an office or agency of the Company designated
pursuant to Section 10.02 for such purpose, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor the Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series which
the Holder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive. 

  
 -22-

 (c) The provisions of this Section 3.05(c) shall apply only to Global Securities unless
otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01: 
 (i) Each Global Security authenticated under this
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global
Security shall constitute a single Dated Subordinated Debt Security for all purposes of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Dated Subordinated Debt Securities registered,
and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary (x) has notified the Company that it
is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (y) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or Default with
respect to such Global Security, (C) at any time if the Company at its option and in its sole discretion determines that the Global Securities of a particular series should be exchanged for definitive Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that
series in registered form or (D) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 3.01. 

(iii) Subject to Clause (ii) above, any exchange of a Global Security for other Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
may be made in whole or in part, and all Dated Subordinated Debt Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct. 

(iv) Every Dated Subordinated Debt Security authenticated and made available for delivery upon registration of transfer
of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section 3.05, Section 3.04, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a
Global Security, unless such Dated Subordinated Debt Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. 
 Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. If any mutilated Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon (including any Global Security) is
surrendered to the Trustee, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall, in the case of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security, authenticate and deliver, or in the case of a Coupon deliver, in exchange therefor a new Dated Subordinated Debt Security
or Coupon of the same series containing identical terms and provisions and of like amount, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

  
 -23-

 If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (a) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security (including any Global Security) or Coupon and (b) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of any of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, or in the case of a Coupon deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon a new Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon of the same series containing identical terms and provisions and
of the amount, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon, pay such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon.

 Upon the issuance of any new Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon under this Section, the Company may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon shall be at any time enforceable
by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and Coupons of that series duly issued hereunder.

 The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons. 

Section 3.07. Payment; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with
respect to any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, interest, if any, on any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities which is payable, and is paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid, in the case of registered Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities, to the Person in whose name that Dated Subordinated Debt Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest or, in the case of Global
Securities held by any Holder, to the Holder including through a Paying Agent of the Company designated pursuant to Section 3.01 by wire transfer of same-day funds to the Holder. 

  
 -24-

 In the case of registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities where payment is to be made in
Dollars, payment at any Paying Agent’s office outside The City of New York will be made in Dollars by check drawn on, or, at the request of the Holder, by wire transfer of same-day funds to a Dollar account maintained by the payee with, a bank
in The City of New York. 
 In the case of registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities where payment is to be made in a
Foreign Currency or Euro, payment will be made as established pursuant to Section 3.01. 
 Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section, each Dated Subordinated Debt Security delivered under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall
carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Dated Subordinated Debt Security. 
 Section 3.08. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a registered Dated Subordinated Debt Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Dated Subordinated Debt Security is registered as the owner of such Dated Subordinated Debt Security for the purpose of receiving (subject to Section 3.07) payment of principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Dated Subordinated Debt Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Dated Subordinated Debt Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the
Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Section 3.09. Cancellation. All Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities and Coupons surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee
and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder and Coupons which the Company may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities previously authenticated hereunder and Coupons which the Company has not issued and sold,
and all Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and Coupons so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by the provisions of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series or pursuant to the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture. The Trustee shall
deliver to the Company all cancelled Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and Coupons held by the Trustee. 
 Section 3.10.
Computation of Interest. Payments of interest on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of each series shall be computed on the applicable basis set forth pursuant to Section 3.01 for Dated Subordinated Debt Securities for such series.

 Section 3.11. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities may use
“CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such 

  
 -25-

 
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and
that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the
Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Debt Securities denominated in Dollars) or Foreign Government Securities (with respect to Dated Subordinated Debt Securities denominated in the same Foreign Currency) maturing as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will
ensure the availability of cash sufficient to pay and discharge all claims with respect to such Dated 

  
 -26-

 
Subordinated Debt Securities and Coupons not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and accrued interest, if any, to the date of such deposit

Notwithstanding any satisfaction and discharge of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, the obligations of the Company to
the Trustee under Section 6.07, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.14 and, if cash, U.S. Government Obligations and/or Foreign Government Securities shall have been deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 4.02 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

Foreign Government Securities have been deposited with the Trustee. 
 Section 4.03. Defeasance Upon Deposit of Moneys
or Government Obligations. At the Company’s option, either (1) the Company shall be deemed to have been Discharged (as defined below) from its obligations with respect to any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities after the
applicable conditions set forth below have been satisfied, or (2) the Company shall cease to be under any obligation to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 8.01 or 8.02 or any covenant set forth in any

 -27-

 
Obligations which through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or
(iii) a combination of (i) and (ii), in each case sufficient, in the opinion (with respect to (ii) and (iii)) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to

shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that Holders of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the exercise of the
option under this Section 4.03 and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised, and, in the case of Dated Subordinated

 Article 5 
 REMEDIES 
 Section 5.01. Events of Default. “Event
of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to a particular series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, means (a) (i) the making by a court of competent jurisdiction in England (or such other jurisdiction in which the Company may
be organized) of an order for the winding-up of the Company which is not successfully appealed within thirty (30) days of the making of such order, or (ii) the adoption by shareholders of the Company of an effective resolution for the
winding up of the Company (other than, in the case of either (i) or (ii) above, under or in connection with a scheme of reconstruction, merger or amalgamation not involving a bankruptcy or insolvency); or (b) any other Event of
Default provided with respect to Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series pursuant to Section 3.01. 

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default occurs with respect to Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of any series and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holder or Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series may
declare the principal amount of (or, in the case of Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Discount Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof), and any accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Dated Subordinated
Debt Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by such Holder or Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become
immediately due and payable, and payments on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series shall be subject to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.01
hereof. 
 At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series
has been made but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holder or Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of such series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind such declaration of acceleration and its consequences (including any Event of Default under another series of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities arising therefrom) but only if the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
 (a) the
principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, if any, and any due and payable interest, if any, and overdue interest, if any,
thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities; and 
 (b) all sums paid or
advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

  
 -29-

 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Event of Default, if any, or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.03. Defaults, Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

 Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 3.01 with respect to any series of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities, 
 (a) A “Default” with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series shall result if
the Company does not pay any installment of interest upon, or any part of the principal of, and any premium on, any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series on the date on which the payment is due and payable, whether upon redemption or
otherwise, and the failure continues for fourteen (14) days. 
 (b) If a Default occurs and is continuing, and such Default
has neither been cured nor waived within a period of fourteen (14) days following the provision of notice of such Default from the Trustee to the Company, the Trustee may at its discretion and without further notice to the Company institute
proceedings in England (or such other jurisdiction in which the Company may be organized) (but not elsewhere) for the winding up of the Company; provided that the Trustee may not, upon the occurrence of a Default, declare any part of the
principal amount of any Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series to be due and payable. 
 (c) Failure to
make any payment in respect of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of a series shall not be a Default if the payment is withheld or refused either: 
 (i) in order to comply with any fiscal or other law or regulation or with the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, in each case applicable to such payment; or 

(ii) in case of doubt as to the validity or applicability of any such law, regulation or order, in accordance with advice
given as to such validity or applicability at any time before the expiry of the fourteen-day (14-day) period by independent legal advisers in an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee. In this case, however, the Trustee may, by notice to the
Company, require the Company to take action, including proceedings for a court declaration, to resolve the doubt, if counsel advises it that the action is appropriate and reasonable. In this situation, the Company shall take the action promptly and
be bound by any final resolution of the doubt. If the action results in a determination that the Company can make the relevant payment without violating any law, regulation or order, then the payment shall become due and payable on the expiration of
a further fourteen-day (14-day) period after the Company delivers to the Trustee written notice informing the Trustee of the determination, which written notice the Company shall deliver promptly following such determination. 

(d) Subject to applicable law and unless the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities provide otherwise, claims in respect of any
Dated Subordinated Debt Security may not be set off, or be the subject of a counterclaim, by the Trustee or any Holder against or in respect of any of its obligations to the Company, and the Trustee and every Holder waives, and shall be

  
 -30-

 
treated for all purposes as if it had waived, any right that it might otherwise have to set-off, or to raise by way of counterclaim any of its claims in respect of any Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities or this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, against or in respect of any of its obligations to the Company. No Holder of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be entitled to proceed directly against the Company except as set
forth in Section 5.07 hereof. 
 Other than the limited remedies specified in Section 5.02 and
Section 5.03(b) above, if an Event of Default or Default with respect to Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, no remedy against the Company shall be available to the Trustee or any Holder of the Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities whether for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series or under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or in respect of any breach by the Company of any
of its other obligations under or in respect of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series or under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, provided that (i) the Company’s obligations to the Trustee under
Section 6.07 hereof and the Trustee’s rights to have money collected applied first to pay amounts due to it under such Section pursuant to Section 5.06 hereof expressly survive any such Event of Default or Default and are not subject
to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof and (ii) the Trustee shall have such powers as are required to be authorized to it under the Trust
Indenture Act in respect of the rights of the Holders of such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in response to such Event of Default or Default under the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, and provided,
further, that any payments on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series are subject to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof.

 (e) No recourse for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Dated Subordinated Debt
Security, or for any claim based thereon or on any Coupon or otherwise in respect thereof or of such Coupon and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, or
in any Dated Subordinated Debt Security or in any Coupon, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the Company or of any
successor corporation of the Company, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation of the Company, 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 to the extent lawful all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture and the issue of the
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. 
 Section 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of
any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, winding up or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any
series or to the property of the Company or such other obligor or their creditors (other than under or in connection with a scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction not involving bankruptcy or insolvency), the Trustee (irrespective of whether the
principal of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series 

  
 -31-

 
shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue
principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and
the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys and other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security and each holder of a Coupon to make such payments to the Trustee and, in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to such Holders or holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.07. 
 Subject to Article Eight and
Section 9.02, nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security or any holder of any Coupon any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, or composition affecting any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons or the rights of any Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security or any holder of any Coupon or to authorize the Trustee to vote
in respect of the claim of any such Holder or holder in any such proceeding; provided that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors’ or
other similar committee. 
 With respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons, the provisions of this
Section 5.04 are subject to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof. 
 Section 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. All rights of action and claim under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or the
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such
proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel (subject, with regard to the Company, to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof) be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities and any holders of Coupons in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article in respect of any
series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, upon
presentation of such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and any Coupons and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 

  
 -32-

 FIRST: To the payment of all amounts applicable to such series of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected due the Trustee under Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: Subject to any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal
of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
amounts due and payable on such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, respectively; and 
 THIRD: To the payment of the balance, if any, to the Company or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 
 Section 5.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security of any series or holder of any Coupon shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless 
 (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default or Default with respect to Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series specifying such Event
of Default or Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; 
 (b) the Holders of not less
than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default or Default in its own name, as
Trustee hereunder; 
 (c) such Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security or holder of a Coupon has offered to the Trustee
security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such sixty-day (60-day) period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series; 
 it being
understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of a particular series or holders of Coupons appertaining thereto shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of any provision of
this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such 

  
 -33-

 
Holders or holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Holders or holders or to enforce any right under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series or holders of such Coupons. 

Section 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest, if any. To the extent required by
the Trust Indenture Act, and subject to any subordination and/or other provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof but otherwise notwithstanding any other provision in this Dated Subordinated
Debt Securities Indenture, the Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security or the holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto shall have the right to receive (subject to Section 3.07) payment of any principal of (and premium, if any) and
interest, if any, on such Dated Subordinated Debt Security on the respective Stated Maturities as expressed in such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), and to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder or holder. 

Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security or the
holder of any Coupon has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the
Trustee or to such Holder or holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and the holders of Coupons shall be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and the holders of Coupons shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted. 
 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities or holders of Coupons is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Dated
Subordinated Debt Security or holder of any Coupon to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default or Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or Default or an acquiescence
therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or holders of any Coupons may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee or by the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or holders of any Coupons, as the case may be. 

  
 -34-

 Section 5.12. Control by Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series, provided that 
 (a) such
direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, as determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion; 
 (b) such direction shall not be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series not taking part in the direction, as determined by the Trustee in its sole
discretion; 
 (c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such
direction; and 
 (d) no provision herein shall be deemed to require the Trustee to take any action or forebear from any action
directed by Holders unless the Trustee has received security and/or indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion. 

Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Events of Default. The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and holders of related Coupons waive any past Event of Default hereunder with respect to such
series and its consequences. 
 Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default with
respect to any series arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default
or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security and each holder of any Coupon by his 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 Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant to 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, 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; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder or group of Holders holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series, or to any suit instituted by any Holder or holder of a Coupon for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Dated
Subordinated Debt Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Coupon (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date). 

  
 -35-

 Section 5.15. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Company covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities 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 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.

Securities Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of
its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or

conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) In case an Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 his or her own affairs. 

  
 -36-

 (d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability

unless such Event of Default or Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that except in the case of a Default, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if a trust committee of Responsible Officers of
the Trustee determine in good faith that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series. 
 Section 6.03. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01: 
 (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

(b) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any
action or resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; 
 (c)
whenever in the administration of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other
evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in conclusive reliance thereon;

 (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested
in it by this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
order, bond, debenture, note, coupon or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, provided that
the Company shall not be required to disclose such information which the Company is prevented from disclosing as a matter of law or contract;

loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; 

(j) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or actual knowledge of any Event of Default unless written notice of any event which is
in fact such an Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and this Indenture; 

(k) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Person acting as Trustee in each of its other capacities hereunder;

 -38-

 Section 6.04. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities. The recitals contained herein and in the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating
Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons, except that
the Trustee represents and warrants that it has duly authorized, executed and delivered this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 6.05. May Hold Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Dated Subordinated Debt Security Registrar and any Calculation Agent or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or Coupons and, subject to Sections 6.08 and 6.13, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Dated Subordinated
Debt Security Registrar, Calculation Agent or such other agent. 
 Section 6.06. Money Held in Trust. Money 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 received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the
Company. 
 Section 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees: 

(a) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as agreed in writing by the
Company from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
 (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any
provision of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its
negligence or bad faith; and 
 (c) to indemnify the Trustee, its directors, officers, employees and agents and any predecessor
Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder
including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder but excluding any tax liabilities of the Trustee based upon, measured by or
determined by the income of the Trustee. 
 (d) The Trustee shall notify the Company in writing of the commencement of any action
or claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought promptly after the Trustee becomes aware of such commencement (provided that the failure to make such notification shall 

  
 -39-

 
not affect the Trustee’s rights hereunder) and the Company shall be entitled to participate in, and to the extent it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; provided, however, that if the Trustee determines that an actual or potential conflict of interest exists then the Trustee shall be entitled to retain separate counsel and the Company
shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Trustee shall not compromise or settle any such action or claim without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(e) As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section 6.07, the Trustee shall have a senior claim
to which the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities are hereby made subordinate, upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any,
on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the termination of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee and any exercise of the U.K. Bail-In Power by the relevant U.K.
Resolution Authority with respect to any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. 
 Section 6.08.
Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner

corporate trust office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation 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 6.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

Section 6.11. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of one or
more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the giving of such
notice of resignation or notice of removal as described below, the resigning or removed Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of
such series.

 (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. 

(d) If at any time: 
 (i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security of the
series as to which the Trustee has a conflicting interest for at least six (6) months, or 
 (ii) the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security for at least six
(6) months, or 
 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a 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, 

then, in any such case, (x) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to any or all series of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities or (y) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security for at least six (6) months (and, in the case of subparagraph (d)(i) above, who is a Holder of a Dated
Subordinated Debt Security of the series as to which the Trustee has a conflicting interest) may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall resign,
be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series (it being understood that any successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of one or more or all of such
series and at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any particular series), and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one (1) year after such
resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in

  
 -41-

 
accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and to that extent supersede
the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such
series and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security of such series for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of himself and
all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series. 

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 Section 6.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 
 (a) In case of
the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument
accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee, all the rights, powers
and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 
 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each
successor Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such
provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series
to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm
that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and
(iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood
that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same 

  
 -42-

 
trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the
execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any
successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series to which
the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute
any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and
eligible under this Article. 
 Section 6.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any
corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all
or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation
to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities.

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

 Section 6.14. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may at any time appoint an Authenticating Agent or
Agents with respect to one or more series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series upon original issue, or issued upon exchange,
registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or in lieu of destroyed, lost or stolen Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, and Dated Subordinated Debt Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Dated Subordinated
Debt Securities Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture to the authentication and delivery 

  
 -43-

 
of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the
Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation or national
banking association organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not
less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State or District of Columbia authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent 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 an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

 Any corporation or national banking association into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation or national banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation or national banking association succeeding to
the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation or national banking association shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating
Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof 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 such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give notice to the Holders of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 1.06. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon
acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed
unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant
to this Section, the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 

  
 -44-

 CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION 

This is one of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture.

 If all of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of a series may not be originally issued at one time,
and if the Trustee does not have an office capable of authenticating Dated Subordinated Debt Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment where the Company wishes to have Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series
authenticated upon original issuance, the Trustee, if so requested by the Company in writing (which writing need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), shall appoint in accordance with this Section
an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company with respect of such series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities.

 (a) the Person formed by such consolidation or amalgamation

the Company) to duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest, if any, on any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities if and to the extent due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Dated Subordinated
Debt Securities, any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture and the performance of every covenant of this Dated Subordinated Debt Security Indenture and such series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities on
the part of the Company to be performed or observed, provided that:

such obligations by an amendment to this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, executed by the Company and such successor entity, if applicable, and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, and the Company shall, by
amendment to this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, irrevocably guarantee (such guarantee to be given on a basis consistent with the ranking of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series) all of the obligations of such
successor entity under the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture as so modified by such amendment (provided, however, that, for the purposes of the Company’s
obligation to pay Additional Amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 10.04 in respect of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and any related Coupons, references to such successor entity’s country of organization will be added to
references to the United Kingdom); 

  
 -48-

 (b) such successor entity shall confirm in such amendment to this Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities Indenture that such successor entity will pay all Additional Amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 10.04 in respect of all the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and any related Coupons (provided, however, that
for these purposes such successor entity’s country of organization will be substituted for the references to the United Kingdom); 
 (c) immediately after giving effect to such assumption of obligations, no Event of Default or Default and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default or
Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; and 
 (d) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such assumption complies with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such assumption have been complied with. 

Upon any such assumption, the successor entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the
Company under this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture with respect to any such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named as the Company in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
Indenture, and the Company or any legal and valid successor corporation which shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed herein, shall be released from all liability as obligor upon any such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities except
as provided in clause (a) of this Section. 
 In the event of any such assumption, any Additional Amounts, if any, payable
pursuant to Section 10.04 will be payable in respect of Taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which the successor entity is organized (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to any obligation to pay Additional Amounts in respect of
Taxes imposed by any Taxing Jurisdiction) rather than Taxes imposed by any Taxing Jurisdiction; provided, however, that if the Company makes payment under the guarantee, the Company shall be required to pay Additional Amounts related
to Taxes (subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 10.04) imposed by any Taxing Jurisdiction by reason of such payments.

accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and

 Article 10 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 10.01. Payment of Principal, Premium,
and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities that it will (subject to Sections 3.07 and any subordination provisions applicable to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of
that series pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof) duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series if and to the extent due and payable in accordance with
the terms of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture. 
 Section 10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities an office or agency where Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities of that series and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and
where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series and any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture may be served; provided,
however, that at the option of the Company in the case of registered Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series, payment of any interest thereon may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled herein as such address
shall appear in the Dated Subordinated Debt Security Register, unless such person requests payment by wire transfer pursuant to Section 3.07. With respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series, such office or agency in each
Place of Payment shall be specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, and if not so specified, initially shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company will maintain in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series and any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities 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 of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to
receive all presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more
other offices or agencies (in or outside the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) where the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of one or more series and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of any obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment
(except as otherwise indicated in this Section) for Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series and any Coupons appertaining thereto 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. 

  
 -53-

 Section 10.03. Money for Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at
any time act as Paying Agent with respect to the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series and any Coupons appertaining thereto, it will, on or before each due date for payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on
any of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto in accordance with the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture a sum sufficient to pay
the principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its failure so to act. 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, it will, prior to each
due date for payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if
any, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest in accordance with the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, and (unless such Paying Agent
is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or its failure so to act. The Company will cause each Paying Agent for any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (a) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent and hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto in accordance with the provisions of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or
otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 
 (b) give the Trustee timely notice of any default by the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series) in the making of any payment, when due and payable, or principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series; and 

(c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums
so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at the time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the
Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such
money. 

  
 -54-

 Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Dated Subordinated Debt Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after any such principal (and premium, if any) or interest have
become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Dated Subordinated Debt Security and the holder of any Coupon appertaining thereto
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall
thereupon cease; 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 at least once, in Authorized Newspapers, published in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York and London, England, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be paid to the Company. 
 Section 10.04. Additional Amounts.

 (a) Unless otherwise specified in any Board Resolution establishing the terms of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of a
series in accordance with Section 3.01, any amounts to be paid by the Company on any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall be paid without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all present or future income, stamp
and other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Taxes”) now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the United Kingdom or any political subdivision or authority
thereof or therein having the power to tax (each a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. If any such Taxes shall at any time be required by a Taxing Jurisdiction to be deducted or withheld, the
Company shall pay such additional amounts of, or in respect of, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, such series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts
paid to the Holders of such series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, after such deduction or withholding, shall equal the respective amounts of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, that would have been payable in respect of such
series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities had no such deduction or withholding been required, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any such Taxes that would not have been payable or due but for the fact that (i) the Holder
or the beneficial owner of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engages in business or maintains a permanent establishment or is physically present in, the Taxing Jurisdiction requiring such deduction
or withholding of Taxes, or otherwise has some connection with such Taxing Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, or the collection of any payment of, or in respect of, principal or
premium, if any, or any interest on, any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the relevant series, (ii) except in the case of a winding up of the Company in England the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities are presented for payment in
the United Kingdom, (iii) the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities are presented for payment more than thirty (30) days after the date payment became due or was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder
would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment at the close of such thirty-day (30-day) period, (iv) the Holder or the beneficial owner 

  
 -55-

 
of the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or the beneficial owner of any payment of, or in respect of, principal of, premium, if any, or any interest on such Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities failed to make any necessary claim or to comply with any certification, identification or other requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction of such Holder or beneficial owner, if
such claim or compliance is required by statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Taxing Jurisdiction as a condition to relief or exemption from such Taxes, (v) such Taxes are imposed on a payment to an individual and are
required to be made pursuant to the European Union Directive on the taxation of savings income, adopted on June 3, 2003, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive, (vi) the relevant
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities are presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able to avoid such Taxes by presenting the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to another Paying Agent in a member state of the
European Union or elsewhere or (vii) if such Taxes would not have been so imposed, or would have been excluded pursuant to clauses (i) through (vii) above inclusive, if the beneficial owner of, or person ultimately entitled to obtain
an interest in, such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities had been the Holder of such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities. Whenever in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or any interest, if any, on or in respect of any Dated Subordinated Debt Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section to the extent
that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section and as if express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) were made in any provisions hereof
where such express mention is not made. 
 (b) Any amounts to be paid by the Company on any series of Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities shall be paid net of any deduction or withholding imposed or required pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to
Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code (or any law
implementing such an intergovernmental agreement) (a “FATCA Withholding Tax”), and the Company shall not be required to pay Additional Amounts on account of any FATCA Withholding Tax. 

(c) With respect to any series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, any Paying Agent shall be entitled to make a deduction or
withholding from any payment which it makes under the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture for or on account of (i) any present or future taxes, duties or charges if and to the
extent so required by any applicable law and (ii) any FATCA Withholding Tax (together, “Applicable Law”). In either case, the Paying Agent shall make any payment after a deduction or withholding has been made pursuant to Applicable
Law and shall report to the relevant authorities the amount so deducted or withheld. However, such deduction or withholding will not apply to payments made under the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series and this Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities Indenture through the relevant clearing systems. In all cases, the Paying Agent shall have no obligation to gross up any payment made subject to any deduction or withholding pursuant to Applicable Law. In addition, amounts deducted or
withheld 

  
 -56-

 
by the Paying Agent under this Section 10.04(c) will be treated as paid to the Holder of a Dated Subordinated Debt Security, and the Company will not pay Additional Amounts in respect of
such deduction or withholding, except to the extent the provisions in this Section 10.04 explicitly provide otherwise. 

Section 10.05. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article Eight, 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 10.06. Statement as to Compliance.
The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending
                    , 20        , a certificate in compliance with Section 314(a)(4) of
the Trust Indenture Act.

such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities or elsewhere in this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with or waiver of such restrictions.

 Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to be Redeemed. If less than all the
Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than sixty (60) days nor less than thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption
Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, subject to applicable Depositary procedures, and which

Securities of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination for Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of that series. 

  
 -57-

 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For all purposes of this Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities shall relate
in the case of any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such registered Dated Subordinated Debt Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

series of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, notice of redemption shall be given not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Dated Subordinated Debt Securities to be redeemed in

 -58-

 Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date,
the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except
if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on, all the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. 

Section 11.06. Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as
aforesaid, the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities so to be redeemed shall, subject to any conditions contained in the indenture supplemental hereto establishing the terms of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of such series, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price therein specified on the Redemption Date, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any) such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities
shall cease to accrue interest. Upon surrender of any such Dated Subordinated Debt Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Dated Subordinated Debt Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with
accrued but unpaid interest (if any) to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that with respect to any Dated Subordinated Debt Securities in registered form, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01, a payment
of interest which is payable on an Interest Payment Date which is on or before the Redemption Date, shall be payable to the Holders of such Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of
business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the terms of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities and the provisions of Section 3.07. 
 If any Dated Subordinated Debt Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from and after the
Redemption Date in accordance with the terms of such Dated Subordinated Debt Security and the provisions of Section 3.07. 

Section 11.07. Dated Subordinated Debt Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Dated Subordinated Debt Security which is to be

transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Dated
Subordinated Debt Security without service charge payable by the Holder, a new Dated Subordinated Debt Security or Dated Subordinated Debt Securities of the same series of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate
principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Dated Subordinated Debt Security so surrendered.

option, redeem the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities, in whole but not in part, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior notice to the Holders (provided that the Company shall
notify the Trustee at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to Holders (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee)), on the date specified pursuant to
Section 3.01 relating to such series at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Dated Subordinated Debt Securities then Outstanding, together with any accrued but unpaid interest to (but excluding) such date.

or tribunal, which becomes effective on or after the Issue Date (and, in the case of a successor entity, which becomes effective on or after the date of that entity’s assumption of the Company’s obligations): 

(i) the Company would be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt
Securities; 
 (ii) the Company would not be entitled to claim a deduction in respect of any payments in
computing the Company’s taxation liabilities or the amount of the deduction would be materially reduced; or

or deductions set against the profits or gains, or profits or gains offset by the losses or deductions, of companies with which the Company is or would otherwise be so grouped for applicable United Kingdom tax purposes (whether under the group
relief system current as at the Issue Date or any similar system or systems having like effect as may from time to time exist) 
 (each such
change in tax law or regulation or the official application or interpretation thereof, a “Tax Event”); 
 provided,
however, that in the case of each Tax Event, the consequences of the Tax Event cannot be avoided by the Company taking reasonable measures available to the Company. 
 (b) Prior to the delivery of any notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 11.09, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel of recognized standing, chosen by the
Company, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that the Company is entitled to exercise its right of redemption.

fixed for such redemption. 

  
 -60-

 (d) Upon the expiry of the notice period described in (a) above, the Company shall be
bound to redeem the relevant Dated Subordinated Debt Securities accordingly.

application or interpretation of the laws or regulations (including any treaty) of the successor entity’s jurisdiction of incorporation, which becomes effective on or after the date of that entity’s assumption of the Company’s
obligations. 

  
 -61-

 Section 11.10. Limitations on Redemption. The Company may redeem the Dated
Subordinated Debt Securities pursuant to Sections 11.08 and 11.09 only in accordance with the requirements set out in the Capital Regulations at such time and only if the Company has obtained the PRA’s prior consent (as (and to the extent)

is 133,650,000 Shares plus: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under the Company’s the 1995 Stock Plan of NexGen, Inc., 1996 Stock

to satisfy the requirements of all Awards then vested and outstanding under this Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than stock, such cash payment shall not result in reducing the number of Shares available for
issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an ISO to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the
Code. In no event shall the total number of Shares issued (counting each reissuance of a Share that was previously issued and then forfeited or repurchased by the Company as a separate issuance) under the Plan upon exercise of Awards exceed one
hundred eighty (180) million Shares (adjusted in proportion to any adjustments under Section 15(a)) over the term of the Plan.

of the Code and related regulations. 

  

	 	(ii)	Rule 16b-3. To the extent that the Administrator determines it to be desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions
contemplated hereunder shall be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3. 

  

	 	(iii)	Other Administration. Other than as provided above, the Plan shall be administered by the Administrator in a manner to satisfy Applicable Laws.

  

	 	(b)	Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, including, without limitation Section 17, and in the case of a Board delegate, subject

	 	(i)	to determine the Fair Market Value as defined above; 

	 	(ii)	to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be granted hereunder; 

 

	 	(iii)	to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Award granted hereunder; 

  

	 	(iv)	to approve forms of agreement and documentation for use under the Plan; 

 

	 	(v)	to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not
limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Options or SARs may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), transferability, any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture or repurchase restrictions, and any restriction
or limitation regarding any Award or the shares of Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine; 

 

	 	(vi)	to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan;

	 	(ix)	to allow Participants to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued upon exercise or vesting of
an Award that number of Shares or cash having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of any Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be
determined. All elections by a Participant to have Shares or cash withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable; 

 

	 	(x)	to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator;

  

	 	(xi)	to ensure that all Awards granted pursuant to the Plan comply with or are exempt from the provisions of Section 409A of the Code; and 

 

	 	(xii)	to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan. 

  

	 	(c)	Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations and interpretations shall be final and binding on all Participants.

Stock Options may only be granted to employees of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. 

  

	6.	Limitations on Awards. 

  

	 	(a)	No Rights as a Service Provider. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing their relationship as a
Service Provider, nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Participant or the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause or to adjust the compensation of any Participant.

	 	(b)	Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder; Effect of Exercise. 

  

	 	(i)	Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable or vest according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the
Administrator and set forth in the Award Documentation, including, without limitation, Participant’s continuous status as a Service Provider and/or Participant’s satisfaction of Performance Goals. An Award may not be exercised for a
fraction of a Share. An Award shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Award Documentation) from the person entitled to exercise the Award. The Participant must remit to the
Company full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Documentation and the Plan. Shares
issued upon exercise of an Award shall be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and Participant’s spouse, or after the death of the Participant in the name of the
Participant’s beneficiaries or heirs or as directed by the executor of Participant’s estate under Applicable Laws. 

  

	 	(ii)	Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote
or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Awarded Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Award. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Award is exercised or
vests. No adjustment of an Award will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 15(a) of the Plan or specified in such Award’s Award
Documentation. 

  

	 	(iii)	Exercising an Award in any manner that results in the issuance of Shares shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for
issuance under the Award, by the number of Shares as to which the Award is exercised. 

  

	 	(c)	Misconduct. If a Participant is determined by the Administrator to have committed Misconduct then, unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement
for services as a Service Provider, neither the Participant, the Participant’s estate nor such other person who may then hold any Award granted to the Participant shall be entitled to exercise any such Award with respect to any Shares, after
termination of status as a Service Provider, whether or not the Participant may receive from the Company (or Affiliate) payment for: vacation pay, services rendered prior to termination, services rendered for the day on which termination occurs,
salary in lieu of notice, or any other benefits. In making such determination, the Administrator shall give the Participant an opportunity to present evidence to the Administrator. Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for
services as a Service Provider, termination of status as a Service Provider shall be deemed to occur on the date when the Company (or Affiliate) dispatches notice or advice to the Participant that status as a Service Provider is terminated.

  

	 	(d)	162(m) Limitations. 

  

	 	(i)	Except in connection with his or her initial service, no Service Provider shall be granted, in any calendar year, Awards covering in the aggregate more than 3,000,000
Shares. 

  

	 	(ii)	In connection with his or her initial service, a Service Provider may be granted Awards covering in the aggregate up to 6,000,000 Shares in the first twelve
(12) months of such Service Provider’s service, rather than the limit set forth in subsection (i) above. 

  

	 	(iii)	The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization as described in Section 15(a).

  

	 	(iv)	If an Award is cancelled in the same fiscal year of the Company in which it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 15(b),
the cancelled Award will be counted against the limits set forth in subsections (i) and (ii) above. 

	 	(e)	Tax Withholding. 

  

	 	(i)	Where, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, the Company has or will have an obligation to withhold foreign, federal, state or local taxes relating to the exercise
of any Award, the Administrator may in its discretion require that such tax obligation be satisfied in a manner satisfactory to the Company. With respect to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the payment of such taxes before Shares
deliverable pursuant to such exercise are transferred to the holder of the Award. 

  

	 	(ii)	With respect to the exercise of an Award, a Participant may elect (a “Withholding Election”) to pay the minimum statutory withholding tax obligation by the
withholding of Shares from the total number of Shares deliverable pursuant to the exercise of such Award, or by delivering to the Company a sufficient number of previously acquired shares of Common Stock, and may elect to have additional taxes paid
by the delivery of previously acquired shares of Common Stock, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Administrator. Previously owned shares of Common Stock delivered in payment for such additional taxes may be
subject to conditions as the Administrator may require. The value of each Share withheld, or share of Common Stock delivered, shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date the Award becomes taxable. All Withholding Elections
are subject to the approval of the Administrator and must be made in compliance with rules and procedures established by the Administrator. 

  

	7.	Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board, subject to stockholder approval. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten
(10) years unless terminated earlier under Section 17 of the Plan. 

  

	8.	Options. 

  

	 	(a)	Term of Options. The term of each Option shall be not greater than ten (10) years from the date it was granted. 

 

	 	(b)	Option Exercise Price and Consideration. 

  

	 	(i)	Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to
the following: 

  

	 	(ii)	In the case of an ISO granted to any Employee who, at the time the ISO is granted owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

 

	 	(iii)	In the case of an ISO granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in subsection
(ii) immediately above, the per Share price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the grant. 

  

	 	(iv)	In the case of a NSO, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

 

	 	(v)	The exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to an already granted Option may not be changed without the consent of the Company’s stockholders. This
shall include, without limitation, a repricing of the Option as well as an option exchange program whereby the Participant agrees to cancel an existing Option in exchange for an Option, SAR or other Award. 

	 	(c)	Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the
case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, may consist entirely of: 

 

	 	(i)	Check; 

  

	 	(ii)	other Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised;

  

	 	(iii)	broker-assisted cashless exercise; or 

  

	 	(iv)	any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or 

  

	 	(v)	such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws. 

 

	 	(d)	Termination of Relationship as Service Provider. When a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates, other than from Misconduct, death or
Disability, the Participant’s Option may be exercised within the period of time specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination or such longer period of time determined by the Administrator
(which may so specify after the date of the termination but before expiration of the Option) not to exceed five (5) years (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the
absence of a specified period of time in the Plan or the Award Documentation, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the date Participant ceased to be a Service Provider. If, on the date of termination, such
Participant’s Option is not fully vested, then the unvested Shares shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Participant’s Option is not fully exercised within the time specified, then the unexercised Shares covered by such
Option shall revert to the Plan and such Option shall terminate. 

  

	 	(e)	Death or Disability of Participant. If a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates from death or Disability, then the Participant or the
Participant’s estate, or such other person as may hold the Option, as the case may be, shall have the right for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or
for such other period as the Administrator may fix, to exercise the Option to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option on the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or to such extent as
may otherwise be specified by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of death or Disability but before expiration of the Option), provided the actual date of exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the
Option. A Participant’s estate shall mean his legal representative or any person who acquires the right to exercise an Option by reason of the Participant’s death or Disability. 

 

	 	(f)	Events Not Deemed Terminations: Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as a Service Provider, such Participant’s status as
a Service Provider shall not be considered interrupted in the case of (i) a leave of absence (approved by the Administrator) by a Participant who intends throughout such leave to return to providing services as a Director, Employee, or
Consultant; (ii) sick leave; (iii) military leave; (iv) any other leave of absence approved by the Administrator, provided such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days, unless reemployment upon the
expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by the Company and issued and promulgated to employees in writing; or (v) in the case of transfer
between locations of the Company or among the Company and its Affiliates. In the case of any Participant on an approved leave of absence, the Administrator may make such provisions respecting suspension of vesting of the Option while on a leave
described in subparts (i) through (v) above and/or resumption of vesting on return from such leave as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event shall an Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the Option.

	 	(g)	ISO Rules. The Option Agreement for each ISO shall contain a statement that the Option it documents is an ISO. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the
extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which all ISOs held by a Participant are exercisable for the first time by such Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such excess Shares shall be treated as
Shares subject to an NSO. For purposes of this Section 8(g), ISOs shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an ISO shall be determined as of the time the ISO with respect
to such Shares is granted. 

  

	 	(h)	Buyout Provisions. Subject to Section 8(b)(v), the Administrator may offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted based on
such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time that such offer is made; provided that the Administrator shall not make such offer without the consent of the Company’s
stockholders with respect to an Option with a per share exercise price that is greater than Fair Market Value on the date of such offer. 

  

	9.	Stock Appreciation Rights. 

  

	 	(a)	Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, SARs may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as shall be determined
by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the number of SARs granted to any Participant. 

 

	 	(b)	Exercise Price and other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of
SARs granted under the Plan; provided, however, that no SAR may have a term of more than ten (10) years from the date of grant. In the case of an SAR, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the date of grant. The exercise price for the Shares or cash to be issued pursuant to an already granted SAR may not be changed without the consent of the Company’s stockholders. This shall include, without limitation, a repricing of
the SAR as well as an SAR exchange program whereby the Participant agrees to cancel an existing SAR in exchange for an Option, SAR or other Award. 

  

	 	(c)	Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

  

	 	(i)	the difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times 

 

	 	(ii)	the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. 

  

	 	(d)	Payment upon Exercise of SAR. At the discretion of the Administrator, payment for an SAR may be in cash, Shares or a combination thereof.

  

	 	(e)	SAR Agreement. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “SAR Agreement”) that shall specify the exercise price, the term of the SAR,
the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine. 

  

	 	(f)	Expiration of SARs. An SAR granted under the Plan shall expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award
Documentation. 

  

	 	(g)	 Termination of Relationship as Service Provider. When a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates, other than from Misconduct,
death or Disability, the Participant’s SAR may be exercised within the period of time specified in the SAR Agreement to the extent that the SAR is vested on the date of termination or such longer period of time determined by the Administrator
(which may so specify after the date of the termination but before expiration of the SAR) not to exceed five (5) years 

	 	 
(but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such SAR as set forth in the SAR Agreement). In the absence of a specified period of time in the Plan or the SAR Agreement, the SAR shall
remain exercisable for three (3) months following the date Participant ceased to be a Service Provider. If, on the date of termination, such Participant’s SAR is not fully vested, then the unvested Shares shall revert to the Plan. If,
after termination, the Participant’s SAR is not fully exercised within the time specified, then the unexercised Shares covered by such SAR shall revert to the Plan and such SAR shall terminate. 

 

	 	(h)	Death or Disability of Participant. If a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates from death or Disability, then the Participant or the
Participant’s estate, or such other person as may hold the SAR, as the case may be, shall have the right for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or for
such other period as the Administrator may fix, to exercise the SAR to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such SAR on the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or to such extent as may
otherwise be specified by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of death or Disability but before expiration of the SAR), provided the actual date of exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the SAR. A
Participant’s estate shall mean his legal representative or any person who acquires the right to exercise an SAR by reason of the Participant’s death or Disability. 

  

	 	(i)	Events Not Deemed Terminations. Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as a Service Provider, such Participant’s status as
a Service Provider shall not be considered interrupted in the case of (i) a leave of absence (approved by the Administrator) by a Participant who intends throughout such leave to return to providing services as a Director, Employee, or
Consultant; (ii) sick leave; (iii) military leave; (iv) any other leave of absence approved by the Administrator, provided such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days, unless reemployment upon the expiration of
such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by the Company and issued and promulgated to employees in writing; or (v) in the case of transfer between
locations of the Company or among the Company and its Affiliates. In the case of any Participant on an approved leave of absence, the Administrator may make such provisions respecting suspension of vesting of the SAR while on a leave described in
subparts (i) through (v) above and/or resumption of vesting on return from such leave as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event shall a SAR be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the SAR.

  

	 	(j)	Buyout Provisions. Subject to Section 9(b), the Administrator may offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an SAR previously granted based on such
terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time that such offer is made; provided that the Administrator shall not make such offer without the consent of the Company’s stockholders with
respect to an SAR with a per share exercise price that is greater than Fair Market Value on the date of such offer. 

  

	10.	Restricted Stock. 

  

	 	(a)	Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Stock may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to
time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award granted to any Participant, and (ii) the
conditions that must be satisfied, the vesting of which typically will be based on continued provision of services and/or satisfaction of Performance Goals. Once the Shares are issued, voting, dividend and other rights as a stockholder shall exist
with respect to Restricted Stock. 

  

	 	(b)	 Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions,
including the purchase price, if any, of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan. Restricted Stock grants shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions 

	 	 
determined by the Administrator at the time the Restricted Stock is granted. Any certificates representing the Restricted Stock shall bear such legends as shall be determined by the
Administrator. 

  

	 	(c)	Restricted Stock Award Documentation. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “Restricted Stock Award Documentation”)
that shall specify the purchase price (if any) and such other terms conditions, and restrictions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine. 

 

	11.	Restricted Stock Units. 

  

	 	(a)	Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Stock Units may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from
time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to each Restricted Stock Units Award, and (ii) the conditions
that must be satisfied, the vesting of which typically will be based on continued provision of services and/or satisfaction of Performance Goals. Until the Shares are issued, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder
shall exist with respect to Restricted Stock Units. 

  

	 	(b)	Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions, including the
purchase price, if any, of Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan. Restricted Stock Units Awards shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions determined by the Administrator at the time the Restricted Stock Units Award is
granted. Restricted Stock Units shall be denominated in units with each unit equivalent to one Share for purposes of determining the number of Shares subject to any Restricted Stock Units Award. 

 

	 	(c)	Restricted Stock Units Agreement. Each Restricted Stock Units grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “Restricted Stock Units Agreement”)
that shall specify the purchase price, if any, and such other terms conditions, and restrictions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Each Restricted Stock Units Agreement shall be subject to all applicable terms of the
Plan and may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. A Restricted Stock Units Agreement may provide for dividend equivalent units. 

 

	 	(d)	Settlement. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units may be made in the form of (i) cash, (ii) Shares or (iii) any combination, as determined
by the Administrator and may be settled in a lump sum or in installments. Distribution to a Participant of an amount (or amounts) from settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units may be deferred to a date after settlement as determined by the
Administrator and in such manner as shall comply with Section 409A of the Code. The amount of a deferred distribution may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents. Until an Award of Restricted Stock Units is settled, the
number of such Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units held by Participants who are residents of Canada or employed in Canada may be made
only in the form of Shares. 

  

	12.	Awards to Outside Directors. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the grant of any Award to a Director who is not also an Employee (an “Outside
Director”) shall be made by the Board pursuant to a written non-discretionary formula established by the Board (the “Outside Director Equity Compensation Policy”). The Outside Director Equity Compensation Policy shall set forth the
type of Award(s) to be granted to Outside Directors, the number of shares of Common Stock to be subject to Outside Director Awards, the conditions on which such Awards shall be granted, become exercisable and/or payable and expire, and such other
terms and conditions as the Board determines in its discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, Awards granted to Outside Directors shall be subject to all of the limitations set forth in the Plan. 

 

	13.	 Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the 

	 	 
laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the recipient, only by the recipient. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may an Award be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of for consideration absent stockholder approval. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable in accordance with this Section 13, the Award Documentation for such Award shall contain such
additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate. 

  

	14.	Reserved. 

  

	15.	Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Asset Sale. 

 

	 	(a)	Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Award, the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award,
in each case as set forth in Section 3, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Award and the 162(m) annual share issuance limits under Section 6(d) shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase
or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of
Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.”
Such adjustment shall be made by the Compensation Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities
convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award. 

 

	 	(b)	Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as
practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise his or her Award until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of
the Awarded Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Award would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option or forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall lapse
100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised or vested an Award will terminate
immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. 

  

	 	(c)	 Merger or Asset Sale. In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation (as such merger is described in Section 2(h)
herein), or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company (as such sale is described in Section 2(h) herein), each outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent Award substituted by the successor corporation or related
corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Award, the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to fully exercise the Awards and all forfeiture restrictions on any or all of such Awards
shall lapse, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Award becomes fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of such a merger or sale of assets, the Administrator
shall notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Award shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Award shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For
the purposes of this subsection, the Award shall be considered assumed if, following such merger or sale of assets, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Award immediately prior to such
merger or sale of assets, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in such merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were
offered a choice of 

	 	 
consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in such merger or sale of
assets is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or related corporation, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Award, for each Share
of Awarded Stock subject to the Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or related corporation equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in such merger or sale of assets.

  

	 	(d)	Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as an employee of the Company, if, within one year after a Change of
Control has occurred, such Participant’s status as an employee of the Company is terminated by the Company (including for this purpose any successor to the Company due to such Change of Control and any employer that is an Affiliate of such
successor) for any reason other than for Misconduct or, if applicable, terminated by such Participant as a Constructive Termination, then all Awards held by such Participant shall become fully vested for exercise upon the date of termination of such
status, irrespective of the vesting provisions of such Participant’s Award Documentations. 

  

	 	(e)	Other Terms. 

  

	 	(i)	The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Award, agreement or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in
the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan. 

  

	 	(ii)	With respect to Awards which are granted to “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and are intended to qualify as
“performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, no adjustment or action described in this Section 15 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment
or action would cause such Award to fail to so qualify as performance-based compensation, unless the Administrator determines that the Award should not so qualify. No adjustment or action described in this Section 15 or in any other provision
of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code. Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be authorized to the extent such adjustment or action
would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16(b) or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 unless the Administrator determines that the Award is not to comply with such exemptive conditions. 

 

	 	(iii)	The existence of the Plan, the Award Documentation and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the
stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options,
warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 

 

	 	(iv)	No action shall be taken under this Section 15 which shall cause an Award to fail to comply with Section 409A of the Code or the Treasury Regulations
thereunder, to the extent applicable to such Award. 

  

	16.	 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting
such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each recipient within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. The date of grant of an Option or SAR shall be the
date the Company completes the 

	 	 
corporate action constituting an offer of stock for sale to a Participant under the terms and conditions of the Option or SAR; provided that such corporate action shall not be considered
complete until the date on which the maximum number of shares that can be purchased under the Option and the minimum Option price are fixed or determinable. 

 

	17.	Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 

  

	 	(a)	Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. 

 

	 	(b)	Stockholder Approval. The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws
and shall obtain stockholder approval for any amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares available under the Plan, to change the class of employees eligible to participate in the Plan, to permit the Administrator to grant Options and
SARs with an exercise price that is below Fair Market Value on the date of grant, to permit the Administrator to extend the exercise period for an Option or SAR beyond ten years from the date of grant, or to provide for additional material benefits
under the Plan. 

  

	 	(c)	Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually
agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers
granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 

  

	18.	Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 

  

	 	(a)	Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of the Award or the issuance and delivery of such Shares
(or the cash equivalent thereof) shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no
obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or
other qualification of such Shares under Applicable Laws. The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or to effect compliance with the registration, qualification or
listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 

  

	 	(b)	Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or receipt of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising or receiving such Award to
represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a
representation is required. 

  

	19.	Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the
Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder (or the cash equivalent thereof), shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares (or the cash
equivalent thereof) as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 

  

	20.	Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to
satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 

  

	21.	Stockholder Approval. This Plan shall be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date of adoption by the
Board. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws. 

	22.	Section 409A. To the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award
Documentation evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Documentations shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the
Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Accordingly, with respect to an Award
that the Administrator determines is subject to Section 409A of the Code, (a) termination of services as a Service Provider shall be determined based on the principles under Section 409A of the Code regarding a separation from
service, (b) if the Change of Control definition contained in the Award Documentation does not comport with the definition of “change of control” for purposes of a distribution under Section 409A of the Code, then any payment due
under such Award shall be delayed until the earliest time that such payment would be permitted under Section 409A of the Code and (c) if the Administrator determines that the Participant granted such Award is a “specified
employee” as defined under Section 409A of the Code, then any payment due under such Award upon the Participant’s separation from service shall not be paid until the first business day following the date that is 6 months following the
date of the Participant’s separation from service. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the
Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the Effective Date), the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Documentation or adopt
other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of
the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the
application of any penalty taxes under such Section.
