The form and terms of the securities representing the Seller Trust L Bonds required to be established pursuant to the Indenture shall be established in accordance with Sections 1.3 through Article 3 of this Supplemental Indenture;

Section 1.3 Designation and Amount of Seller Trust L Bonds

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall be known and designated as the “Seller Trust L Bonds due 2023”. The initial maximum aggregate principal amount of the Seller Trust L Bonds that may be authenticated and delivered under this Supplemental Indenture shall not exceed $403,234,866.

Section 1.4 Terms; Form of Security

(a)

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall constitute a new class of “Security” for purposes of the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture. The Seller Trust L Bonds shall initially be in certificated form pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Indenture, and the Seller Trust L Bonds shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 attached hereto. The terms and provisions contained in the form of Seller Trust L Bonds attached as Exhibit A-2 hereto shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Supplemental Indenture, and the Company, by its execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture, expressly agrees to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereto. The Seller Trust L Bonds may be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000.

(b)

Any of the Seller Trust L Bonds may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends and endorsements as the Officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture (and which do not affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee), or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Seller Trust L Bonds may be listed for trading, or of any Depositary, or agreements to which the Company is subject or reasonably required by usage. Any portion of the text of any Seller Trust L Bonds may be set forth on the reverse thereof, with an appropriate reference thereto on the face of the Seller Trust L Bonds.

Section 1.5 Payment of Principal and Interest

(a)

The “Maturity Date” for the Seller Trust L Bonds shall be August 9, 2023.

(b)

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall bear simple interest at 7.50% per annum from and including their Issue Date, or from the most recent Payment Date on which interest has been paid or provided for until the principal thereof becomes due and payable. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Seller Trust L Bonds shall be payable monthly in arrears in U.S. Dollars on the 15th day of the calendar month next following the month for which interest is due and payable. Payments of interest shall be made to the Person in whose name a Seller Trust L Bond is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding a Payment Date.

(c)

So long as the Final Closing has not occurred, the Redemption Price payable in respect of a redemption effected by the Company pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Indenture after January 31, 2019 may be paid, at the option of the Company, in the form of cash, the PIK Payoff Consideration, or a combination of any such cash or property, in each case as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, in full satisfaction of the Seller Trust L Bonds to be redeemed.

(d)

(i) At least 30 days prior to the Maturity Date for the Seller Trust L Bonds, the Company will send to each Holder of Seller Trust L Bonds as of its Maturity Record Date a Notice of Maturity (via first class U.S. mail, facsimile or electronic transmission). The Notice of Maturity will notify the Holder of the Security’s pending maturity and that the Holder is entitled to make an election to receive a portion of the Applicable Cash Amount in connection with the payment of such Holder’s Seller Trust L Bonds. A Holder shall be deemed to have waived its right to receive any portion of the Applicable Cash Amount if the Holder fails to send to the Company, at least 15 days prior to the Maturity Date, a written election to receive a portion of the Applicable Cash Amount, if any (an “Applicable Cash Election”).

(ii)

Upon the Maturity Date, the Company shall repay the entire principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Seller Trust L Bonds, at its option, in cash, PIK Payoff Consideration, or a combination of any such cash or property, in each case as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, in full satisfaction of the Seller Trust L Bonds; provided, that all Holders who have timely submitted an Applicable Cash Election shall be entitled to receive the Applicable Cash Amount, if any, pro rata based on the ratio that the principal amount of such Holder’s Seller Trust L Bonds bears to the total amount of outstanding Seller Trust L Bonds for which a timely Applicable Cash Election was received, in cash, and the balance due, if any, in cash, PIK Payoff Consideration, or a combination of any such cash or property, in each case as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

(e)

(i) After the second (2^nd) anniversary of the date of the Final Closing, the Holders shall have the right to cause the Company to repurchase, in whole but not in part, without penalty, the Seller Trust L Bonds held by such Holder or such Holder’s beneficial interest in a Global Security, as the case may be, by delivering to the Company a repurchase request (a “Seller Trust Repurchase Request”); provided, however, that in the case of a Seller Trust Repurchase Request by a Beneficial Holder, such Seller Trust Repurchase Request shall be valid only if delivered through the Depositary, in its capacity as the registered Holder of the Global Security with respect to which such Beneficial Holder holds his or her beneficial interest in a Security.

(ii)

Upon receipt of a Seller Trust Repurchase Request under subsection (e)(i) above, the Company shall designate a date for the repurchase of such Seller Trust L Bond (the “Seller Trust Repurchase Date”), which date shall not be later than the 15th day of the month next following the month in which the Company receives a Seller Trust Repurchase Request provided pursuant to subsection (e)(i) above, a date selected by the Company but no earlier than ten days and no later than 45 days after the Company’s acceptance of the Seller Trust Repurchase Request. On the Seller Trust Repurchase Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder its pro rata share (based on the ratio that the principal amount of such Holder’s Seller Trust L Bonds bears to the total amount of outstanding Seller Trust L Bonds) of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Seller Trust L Bonds to be repurchased in cash, PIK Payoff Consideration, or a combination of any such cash or property, in each case as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, in full satisfaction of such Holder’s Seller Trust L Bonds.

(f)

All payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company or a Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars or delivery of the other property specified herein to the accounts of the registered Holders thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.5 of this Supplemental Indenture and Section 2.3 of the Indenture and other relevant provisions of the Indenture.

(g)

Prior to each Payment Date on any Seller Trust L Bond, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent sufficient funds or other authorized property to pay principal and interest then so becoming due and payable. The Company shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money or other property held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal or interest on the Seller Trusts, and will notify the Trustee promptly in writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee shall require a Paying Agent (if other than the Company) to pay all money or other property held by it to the Trustee. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money or other property held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no further liability for the money or other property delivered to the Trustee. If the Company acts as Paying Agent, then the Company shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing at least five days before the Payment Date of the name and address of the Paying Agent if a Person other than the Trustee (or the Company) is named Paying Agent at any time or from time to time.

Section 1.6 Ranking

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall be senior secured obligations of the Company, ranking junior only to all Senior Debt of the Company, pari passu in right of payment and in respect of collateral with all “L Bonds” of the Company, and senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

Section 1.7 ISSUANCE

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall not be validly issued to a Person until the following shall have occurred: (i) such Person has delivered to the Company or a duly authorized Agent all documentation required to be delivered under the Master Exchange Agreement, and otherwise required to establish the ability of the Company to issue the Securities in conformity with the Securities Act and other applicable securities law; (ii) the Initial Transfer under the Master Exchange Agreement shall concurrently be completed; (iii) an Account is established by the Registrar in the name of such Person as the Holder of such Security in the Securities Register; and (iv) a certificate representing the Seller Trust L Bonds has been prepared, executed and authenticated pursuant to the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 1.8 Transferability

The Seller Trust L Bonds shall constitute Restricted Indenture Securities under the Indenture and may be transferred solely in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6(b) of the Indenture; provided, however, that the restrictions in Section 2.6(b) shall not apply to a resale of the Seller Trust L Bonds that shall have been registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitation of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders, and for a statement of the terms upon which the Bonds are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. Capitalized and certain other terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.

The Company shall pay all costs of collection, whether or not judicial proceedings are instituted, in the manner provided in the Indenture.
