Common use of Repayment Upon Death Clause in Contracts

Repayment Upon Death. If the Survivor's Option is affirmatively specified on the face hereof, the Holder of the Security shall have the right to require the Company to repay a Security prior to its maturity date upon the death of the beneficial owner of the Security as described below. The Company calls this right the "Survivor's Option." Upon exercise of the Survivor's Option, the Company will, at its option, either repay or repurchase any Security (or portion thereof) properly tendered for repayment by or on behalf of the person (the "Representative") that has authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial owner of the Security at a price equal to the sum of: • 100% of the principal amount of the deceased beneficial owner's beneficial interest in such Security, and • accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of such repayment or repurchase, subject to the following limitations. The Survivor's Option may not be exercised unless the Security was owned by the beneficial owner or the estate of that beneficial owner at least six months prior to such exercise. In addition, the Company may limit the aggregate principal amount of Securities as to which the Survivor's Option may be exercised as follows: • In any calendar year, the Company may, in its sole discretion, limit the aggregate principal amount to the greater of 2% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Securities as of December 31 of the most recently completed calendar year or $2,000,000. The Company calls this limitation the "annual put limitation." • For any individual deceased beneficial owner of Securities, the Company may limit the aggregate principal amount to $250,000 for any calendar year. The Company calls this limitation the "individual put limitation." The Company will not make principal repayments pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option except in principal amounts of $1,000 and multiples of $1,000. If the limitations described above would result in the partial repayment of any Security, the principal amount of the Security remaining outstanding after repayment must be at least $1,000. An otherwise valid election to exercise the Survivor's Option may not be withdrawn. Each Security (or portion thereof) tendered pursuant to a valid exercise of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in the order all such Securities are received by the Trustee, unless the acceptance of that Security would contravene the annual put limitation or the individual put limitation. If, as of the end of any calendar year, the aggregate principal amount of Securities (or portions thereof) that have been tendered pursuant to the valid exercise of the Survivor's Option during that year has exceeded either the annual put limitation or the individual put limitation for that year, any exercise(s) of the Survivor's Option with respect to Securities (or portions thereof) not accepted during such calendar year because such acceptance would have contravened either such limitation shall be deemed to be tendered in the following calendar year in the order all such Securities (or portions thereof) were originally tendered. Any Security (or portion thereof) accepted for repayment or repurchase pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option will be repaid or repurchased on the first Interest Payment Date to occur at least 20 calendar days after the date of acceptance. If that date is not a Business Day, payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. In the event that a Security (or any portion thereof) tendered for repayment or repurchase pursuant to valid exercise of the Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Trustee will deliver a notice by first-class mail to the registered Holder, at that Holder's last known address as indicated in the Security register, that states the reason that the Security (or portion thereof) has not been accepted for repayment. Subject to the foregoing, in order to validly exercise a Survivor's Option, the Trustee must receive from the Representative of the deceased beneficial owner: • appropriate evidence satisfactory to the Trustee (A) that the deceased was the beneficial owner of such Security at the time of death and the interest in such Security was owned by the deceased beneficial owner or his or her estate at least six months prior to the request for repayment or purchase, (B) that the death of such beneficial owner has occurred, (C) of the date of such death, and (D) that the Representative has authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial owner; • if the interest in the Security is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial owner, a certificate satisfactory to the Trustee from such nominee attesting to the deceased's beneficial ownership of the Security; • a written request for repayment signed by the Representative, with the signature guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States; • if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement; • tax waivers and such other instruments or documents that the Trustee reasonably required in order to establish the validity of the beneficial ownership of the Security and the claimant's entitlement to payment; and • any additional information the Trustee reasonably required to evidence satisfaction of any conditions to the exercise of the Survivor's Option or to document beneficial ownership or authority to make the election and to cause the repayment or repurchase of the Security. Subject to the annual put limitation and the individual put limitation, all questions as to the eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option will be determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion. The Trustee's determination will be final and binding on all parties. The death of a person holding a beneficial interest in a Security as a joint tenant or tenant by the entirety with another person, or as a tenant in common with the deceased Holder's spouse, will be deemed the death of the beneficial owner of the Security, and the entire principal amount of the Security so held will be subject to the Survivor's Option. The death of a person holding a beneficial interest in a Security as a tenant in common with a person other than such deceased Holder's spouse will be deemed the death of the beneficial owner of a Security only with respect to the deceased Holder's interest in the Security. The death of a person who, during his or her lifetime, was entitled to substantially all of the beneficial interests of ownership of a Security will be deemed the death of the beneficial owner for purposes of the Survivor's Option, regardless of the registered Holder of the Security, if such beneficial interest can be established to the satisfaction of the Trustee. Such beneficial interest will be deemed to exist in typical cases of nominee ownership, ownership under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, community property or other joint ownership arrangements between a husband and wife and custodial and trust arrangements where one person has substantially all of the beneficial ownership interest in the Security during his or her lifetime. For Securities represented by a Global Security, the Depositary or its nominee shall be the holder of such Security and therefore shall be the only entity that can exercise the Survivor's Option for such Security. To obtain repayment or repurchase pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option with respect to such Security, the Representative must provide to the broker or other entity through which the beneficial interest in such Security is held by the deceased beneficial owner (i) the documents described in the third preceding paragraph and (ii) written instructions to such broker or other entity to notify the Depositary of such Representative's desire to obtain repayment or repurchase pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option. Such broker or other entity shall provide to the Trustee (i) the documents received from the Representative referred to in clause (i) of the preceding sentence and (ii) a certificate satisfactory to the Trustee from such broker or other entity stating that it represents the deceased beneficial owner. Such broker or other entity shall be responsible for disbursing any payments it receives pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option to the appropriate Representative.
