Article 2
General Terms and Conditions of the Notes

Section 2.01. Designation and Principal Amount. There are hereby authorized and established a series of Securities under the Indenture, designated as the “6.950% Senior Notes due 2029,” unlimited in aggregate principal amount. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be initially issued shall be $500,000,000. Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to ‎Section 2.02 hereof.

Section 2.02. Further Issues. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes at the time of such issuance, the Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes. Any such additional Notes will have the same interest rate, maturity date and other terms as the Notes, except for the issue date, issue price and initial Interest Payment Date. Any such additional Notes, together with any other Notes previously issued pursuant to this Supplemental Indenture, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture; provided, however, that if any such additional Notes would not be fungible with the outstanding Notes for U.S. federal

income tax purposes, the Company shall cause such additional Notes to be issued with a separate CUSIP number.

Section 2.03. Maturity. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2029.

Section 2.04. Interest. The Notes will bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) from November 16, 2023 at the rate of 6.950% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest accrued from November 16, 2023, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Interest Payment Dates on which such interest shall be payable are March 15 and September 15, commencing on March 15, 2024; and the Regular Record Date for the interest payable on any Interest Payment Date is the close of business on March 1 or September 1, as the case may be, immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, whether or not that day is a Business Day.

Section 2.05. Method and Place of Payment. Payment of the principal of (and premium , if any) and interest on the Notes will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or an office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose, in the continental United States, in United States dollars; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register; and provided further, that all payments in respect of Global Securities shall be made by wire transfer in same-day funds in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. In any case where the date of maturity of interest on, premium, if any, or principal of any Note, the date fixed for redemption of the Notes or any Change of Control Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the relevant payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date and no interest shall accrue in respect of such amount for the period from and after such date. The Notes may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange, and notices to or upon the Company in respect of such Notes may be served, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or an office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose, in the continental United States.

Section 2.06. Optional Redemption. Prior to the Par Call Date (as defined below), the Company may redeem the 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:

(a)

(i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 40 basis points less (ii) interest accrued on those Notes to, but excluding, the date of redemption, and

(b)

100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

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 applicable redemption date to each holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed with a copy to the Trustee.

The following terms are relevant to the determination of the redemption price of the Notes.

“Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which the Trustee or banking institutions in the Borough of Manhattan, The City and State of New York are obligated or authorized by law to close.

“Par Call Date” means February 15, 2029 (the date that is one month prior to the maturity of the Notes).

“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 applicable redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) – H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities—Treasury constant maturities—Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (i) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the applicable redemption date to the applicable Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (ii) 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 applicable 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 (iii) 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 applicable redemption date.

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

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the applicable policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Section 2.07. Mandatory Redemption; Offers to Purchase; Open Market Purchases. The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. Notwithstanding any provision hereunder or in the Indenture to the contrary, the Company and its Affiliates may purchase Notes from investors who are willing to sell from time to time, either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Notes that the Company or any of its Affiliates purchase may, at the Company’s discretion, be held, resold or canceled.

Section 2.08. Appointment of Agents. The Trustee will initially be the Paying Agent, DTC Custodian, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar for the Notes.

Section 2.09. Global Securities. The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more permanent Global Securities in definitive, fully registered form, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and Section 2.11 of the Indenture.

Section 2.10. Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes pursuant to ‎Section 2.06, each Holder of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer made in accordance with the terms of this ‎Section 2.10 (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b)

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company shall give to each Holder of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice governing the terms of the Change of Control Offer that:

(i)

describes the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event;

(ii)

offers to repurchase all Notes tendered;

(iii)

sets forth the payment date for the repurchase of the Notes, which date will be at least 30 days but no more than 60 days from the date such notice is given, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(iv)

if given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, states that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date;

(v)

discloses that any Note not tendered for repurchase will continue to accrue interest; and

(vi)

specifies the procedures for tendering Notes.

(c)

Holders of the Notes electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to: (i) surrender their Notes to the Paying Agent on the address specified in the notice , with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed or (ii) transfer their Notes to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Paying Agent, prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d)

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and the third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

(e)

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder, to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable, in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this ‎Section 2.10 by virtue of any such conflict.

(f)

Solely for purposes of this ‎Section 2.10, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following :

(i) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries;

(ii) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), becomes the ultimate “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), of more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock;

(iii) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock or the Voting Stock of such other person is

converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or

(iv) the adoption of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction (or series of related transactions) will not be deemed to involve a change of control under clause (ii) above if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporate entity and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such corporate entity immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a corporate entity satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such corporate entity.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing on the earlier of: (a) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (b) the first public announcement by the Company of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control), and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control, which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change; provided that a Change of Control Triggering Event will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control if the applicable Rating Agency making the reduction in rating does not publicly announce or confirm or inform the Trustee at the Company’s or the Trustee’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the Change of Control.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Investment Grade” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Xxxxx’x; a rating equal to or higher than BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P; a rating equal to or higher than BBB- (or the equivalent) by Fitch; and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.

“Rating Agencies” means:

(i) each of Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Xxxxx’x Corporation, and its successors (“Moody’s”), Xxxxx Ratings, Inc., and its successors (“Fitch”), and S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and its successors (“S&P”); and

(ii) if any two of the Rating Agencies fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control or ceases to rate the Notes, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act that is selected by the Company as a replacement for Moody’s, S&P, Fitch or all of them, as the case may be.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified person as of any date, the Capital Stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirement of Section 11.02 of the Indenture that no supplemental indenture shall reduce the amount payable upon the redemption of any Note or accelerate the time at which such Note may be redeemable shall not apply to this ‎Section 2.10.

Section 2.11. Defeasance. The provisions of Article 4 of the Indenture will apply to the Notes. If the Company exercises its Covenant Defeasance option pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.04 of the Indenture with respect to the Notes, in addition to the provisions of the Indenture set forth in Section 4.04, the Company also shall be released from its obligations in respect of the Notes under ‎Section 2.10 of this Supplemental Indenture.

Article 3
Form of Notes

Section 3.01. Registration and Form of Notes; Denomination. The Notes shall be issued as registered securities as provided in ‎Section 2.09 of ‎Article 2. The Notes and the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication to be endorsed thereon are to be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

The Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance, observance, or breach of any covenants, conditions, representations, warranties or agreements on the part of the Company, and shall not be responsible for any statement in any document used in connection with the sale of any Notes. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be responsible for monitoring the Company’s rating status, making any request upon any Rating Agency or determining whether any rating event has occurred. The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently determine or verify if any Change of Control or any other event has occurred or if any Change of Control Offer is required to be made, or notify the Holders of any such event. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the provisions contained in the Indenture in respect of the rights, privileges, immunities, powers and duties of the Trustee shall be applicable in respect of this Supplemental Indenture as fully and with like force and effect as though fully set forth in full herein.

Section 4.04. Separability. If any provision in this Supplemental Indenture or the Notes is deemed unenforceable, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision set forth herein, or of this Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes as a whole.

Section 4.05. Execution in Counterparts. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts (which may include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
