Section 2.7 Optional Redemption

(a) Prior to June 15, 2033 (three months prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Senior Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Senior Notes to be redeemed matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 40 basis points less (b) interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed;

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Senior Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

The actions and determinations of the Company in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) The redemption provisions of Article XII of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Senior Notes; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in the Base Indenture to the contrary, notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Senior Notes to be redeemed. Any notice of redemption shall include a brief summary of the manner of calculation of the Redemption Price but need not include the Redemption Price itself; provided however, that a supplemental notice will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date including the Redemption Price.

will not be able to be satisfied or the Company is not able or willing to waive such conditions precedent, in each case subject to the policies and procedures of the Depositary (or any successor Depositary). In any event, the Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the relevant Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent provided in the notice of redemption, the Senior Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable Redemption Price.

Section 2.8 No Sinking Fund

The Senior Notes shall not be subject to a sinking fund provision. The provisions contained in Article XIII of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes.

Section 2.9 Events of Default

In addition to the Events of Default set forth in Section 5.1 of the Base Indenture, it shall be an “Event of Default” with respect to the Senior Notes if the following occurs and shall be continuing: an acceleration of the maturity of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount in excess of Two Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000), if such failure to pay is not discharged or such acceleration is not annulled within 15 days after the Company shall have received due notice of such acceleration.

The additional Events of Default set forth in this Section 2.9 are expressly being included solely to be applicable to the Senior Notes specified in this Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.10 Ranking

The Senior Notes shall constitute the senior debt obligations of the Company and shall rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future senior debt obligations of the Company.

Section 2.11 Paying Agent; Security Registrar

Initially, the Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. If the Senior Notes are issued in definitive form, the Corporate Trust Office shall be the office or agency of the Paying Agent and the Security Registrar for the Senior Notes.

Section 2.12 Defeasance

The defeasance provisions of Article XIV of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Senior Notes.

Section 2.13 No Conversion

The Senior Notes will not be convertible into shares of Common Stock or any other security. The provisions contained in Article XV of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes.

Section 2.14 CUSIP Numbers

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

Section 2.15 Definitive Form of Senior Notes

The Senior Notes will be issued in definitive form only under the limited circumstances set forth in Section 3.4 of the Base Indenture.

Interest not paid on the scheduled Interest Payment Date will accrue and compound semiannually at the rate borne by the principal amount of this Senior Note.

Interest on the Senior Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Senior Notes plus 1% per annum to the extent lawful.

2. Ranking.

The Senior Notes shall constitute the senior debt obligations of the Company and shall rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future senior debt obligations of the Company.

In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Senior Notes is not a Business Day, payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next day that is a Business Day (and without any additional interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally payable.

A-4

4. Paying Agent and Security Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee, will act as Paying Agent and Security Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent and Security Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain exceptions, act in any such capacity.

5. Indenture.

This Senior Note is one of a duly authorized series of the 6.000% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “Senior Notes”) of the Company, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000 and issued under an Indenture, dated as of August 21, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 8, 2023 (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), in each case, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). The terms of this Senior Note include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). This Senior Note is subject to all such terms, and by acceptance hereof, Holders agree to be bound by all of such terms, as the same may be amended from time to time. Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Senior Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

6. Optional Right of Redemption.

(i)

(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Senior Notes to be redeemed matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 40 basis points less (b) interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date, and

If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or otherwise waived by the Company (in the Company’s sole discretion) on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Redemption Date. The Company shall notify Holders of any such rescission as soon as practicable after the Company determines that such conditions precedent will not be able to be satisfied or the Company is not able or willing to waive such conditions precedent, in each case subject to the policies and procedures of the Depositary (or any successor Depositary). In any event, the Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the relevant Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent provided in the notice of redemption, the Senior Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable Redemption Price.
