The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue additional Securities ranking equally with the Notes and otherwise identical in all respects (except for their date of issue, issue price and the date from which interest payments thereon shall accrue) so that such additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single Series with the Notes; provided, however, that no additional Securities of any existing or new Series may be issued under the Indenture if an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured thereunder.

2. Ranking. The Notes shall constitute the senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company and shall rank equally in right of payment among themselves and with all other existing and future senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company.

3. Payment of Overdue Amounts. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, if any, from time to time, calculated on an Actual/Actual (ICMA) day count basis (giving effect to the actual payment date for such overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, on demand at the interest rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful.

4. Optional Redemption.

(a) The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the Company’s election, from time to time, on any date fixed by the Company (the “Redemption Date”). If any of the Notes are redeemed before January 8, 2022, the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 4 shall be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the

principal amount of such Notes then outstanding to be redeemed, and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on an annual basis (Actual/Actual (ICMA)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate plus 12.5 basis points (0.125%), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

“Comparable Government Bond Rate” means the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which the Gross Redemption Yield on the Notes, if they were to be purchased at such price on the third business day prior to the Redemption Date, would be equal to the gross redemption yield on such business day of the Comparable Government Bond on the basis of the middle market price of the Comparable Government Bond prevailing at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such business day as determined by the Calculation Agent.

“Calculation Agent” means an independent investment bank selected by the Company.

“Gross Redemption Yield” means, with respect to a security, the gross redemption yield on such security as calculated by the Calculation Agent in accordance with generally accepted market practice at such time.

(a) Payment of Additional Amounts. The Company shall pay to any Holder (which term, for purposes of this Section 4, includes each beneficial owner) of this Note who is a Non-U.S. Person (as defined below) additional amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note to such Holder, after deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon such Holder by the United States of America or any taxing authority thereof or therein, will not be less than the amount provided in this Note to be then due and payable (such amounts, the “Additional Amounts”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts for or on account of:

(i) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for (A) the existence of any present or former connection (other than a connection arising solely from the ownership of the Notes or the receipt of payments in respect of the Notes) between such Holder, or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation, and the United States, including such Holder, or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor, being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the United States or being or having been engaged in trade or business or present in the United States or (B) the presentation of such Notes for payment on a date more than 30 days after the later of the date on which that payment becomes due and payable and the date on which payment is duly provided for;
