Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if at the time of the occurrence of the Change of Control the Notes carry either a non-investment grade credit rating from each Rating Agency then assigning a credit rating to the Notes or no credit rating from any Rating Agency, a Change of Control Repurchase Event shall be deemed to occur upon the occurrence of a Change of Control alone; and (b) if at the time of the occurrence of the Change of Control the Notes carry a rating from more than one Rating Agency, at least one of which is investment grade, then sub-paragraph (ii) shall apply.

ARTICLE TWO

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

Section 2.01

Designation and Principal Amount.

(a) There is hereby authorized and established a series of Securities designated the “5.625% Senior Notes due 2043” (the “Notes”), in an initial aggregate principal amount of U.S.$500,000,000, which amount shall be specified in the Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes pursuant to Section 303 of the Base Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may, from time to time and without the consent of the Holders, issue additional Notes, with Guarantees as provided in the Indenture, on terms and conditions identical to those of the Notes previously issued, which additional Notes, shall increase the aggregate principal amount of, and shall be consolidated and form a single series with, the Notes previously issued. At any time and from time to time, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount specified in such Authentication Order for such additional Notes issued hereunder.

Section 2.02

Stated Maturity

The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be November 15, 2043.

Section 2.03

Interest

(a) The Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 5.625% per annum, subject to Section 2.03(b), from November 12, 2013 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be. Interest shall be payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning on May 15, 2014, to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Any amount of interest on any Note which is overdue shall bear interest (to the extent that payment thereof shall be legally enforceable) at the rate per annum then borne by such Note (giving effect to the adjustments to the interest rate contemplated by Section 2.03(b)), from the date such amount is due to the day it is paid or made available for payment, and such overdue interest shall be paid as provided in Section 307 of the Base Indenture.

(b) The interest rate payable on the Notes shall be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Moody’s or S&P, or in either case, a Substitute Rating Agency thereof, downgrades (or subsequently upgrades) the rating assigned to the Notes, in the manner described below.

(i) If the rating of the Notes from Moody’s or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase from the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date by the percentage points set forth below opposite that rating:


Xxxxx’x Rating*	Percentage Points

Ba1		0.25
Ba2		0.50
Ba3		0.75
B1 or below		1.00

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

(ii) If the rating of the Notes from S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase from the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date by the percentage points set forth below opposite that rating:


S&P Rating*	Percentage Points

BB+		0.25
BB		0.50
BB-		0.75
B+ or below		1.00

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

(iii) If, at any time, the interest rate on the Notes has been adjusted upward and either Xxxxx’x or S&P (or, in either case, a Substitute Rating Agency thereof), as the case may be, subsequently increases its rating of the Notes to any of the ratings set forth in the tables above, the interest rate on the Notes shall be decreased such that the interest rate for the Notes equals the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date plus the applicable percentage points set forth opposite the ratings in the tables above in effect immediately following the ratings increase. If Moody’s or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof subsequently increases its rating of the Notes to Baa3 (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher and S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency

thereof increases its rating to BBB- (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher, the interest rate on the Notes shall be decreased to the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

(iv) Each adjustment required by any decrease or increase in a rating set forth above, whether occasioned by the action of Moody’s or S&P (or, in either case, any Substitute Rating Agency thereof), shall be made independent of any and all other adjustments. In no event shall (i) the interest rate on the Notes be reduced to below the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date or (ii) the total increase in the interest rate on the Notes exceed 2.00 percentage points above the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

(v) No adjustments in the interest rate of the Notes shall be made solely as a result of a Rating Agency ceasing to provide a rating of the Notes. If, at any time, less than two Rating Agencies provide a rating of the Notes for any reason beyond the Issuer’s control, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a rating of the Notes from a Substitute Rating Agency, to the extent one exists, and if a Substitute Rating Agency exists, for purposes of determining any increase or decrease in the interest rate on the Notes pursuant to the table above (x) such Substitute Rating Agency shall be substituted for the last Rating Agency to provide a rating of the Notes but which has since ceased to provide such rating, (y) the relative ratings scale used by such Substitute Rating Agency to assign ratings to senior unsecured debt shall be determined in good faith by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Issuer and, for purposes of determining the applicable ratings included in the applicable table in Section 2.03(b)(i) or 2.03(b)(ii) with respect to such Substitute Rating Agency, such ratings shall be deemed to be the equivalent ratings used by Moody’s or S&P, as applicable, in such table and (z) the interest rate on the Notes shall increase or decrease, as the case may be, such that the interest rate equals the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date plus the appropriate percentage points, if any, set forth opposite the rating from such Substitute Rating Agency in the applicable table in Section 2.03(b)(i) or 2.03(b)(ii) (taking into account the provisions of clause (y) above) (plus any applicable percentage points resulting from a decreased rating by the other Rating Agency).

(vi) For so long as only one Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes, any subsequent increase or decrease in the interest rate of the Notes necessitated by a reduction or increase in the rating by such Rating Agency shall be twice the percentage points set forth in the applicable table above. For so long as no Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase to, or remain at, as the case may be, 2.00 percentage points above the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

(vii) The interest rate on the Notes shall permanently cease to be subject to any adjustment described in this Section 2.03(b) (notwithstanding any subsequent decrease in the ratings by either or both Rating Agencies) if the Notes become rated A2 and A (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher by Xxxxx’x and S&P, respectively (or, in either case, any Substitute Rating Agency thereof), or one of these ratings if the Notes are only rated by one Rating Agency.

(viii) Any interest rate increase or decrease described in this Section 2.03(b) shall take effect from the first day of the interest period during which a rating change requires an adjustment in the interest rate. If Xxxxx’x or S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof changes its rating of the Notes more than once during any particular interest period, the last change by such agency during such period shall control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease with respect to the Notes described above relating to such Rating Agency’s action.

(ix) If the interest rate payable on the Notes is increased as described in this Section 2.03(b), then the term “interest,” as used in this First Supplemental Indenture, the Base Indenture and the Notes, shall be deemed to include any such additional interest unless the context otherwise requires.

(x) The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and Principal Paying Agent, if the Trustee shall not then be acting as Principal Paying Agent, within five calendar days after either Xxxxx’x or S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof downgrades, or subsequently upgrades, the rating assigned to the Notes as described by this Section 2.03(b), an Officers’ Certificate stating (i) that the rating downgrade, or subsequent upgrade, as the case may be, has occurred and (ii) the current rating or ratings upon which the interest rate payable on the Notes shall be based.

Section 2.04

Authorized Denominations

The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.05

Section 2.08

Repurchase upon Change of Control Repurchase Event

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Issuer has exercised earlier its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to this First Supplemental Indenture, each Holder shall have the option to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any portion of its Notes (in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) on the Repurchase Date (as defined in Section 3.01) at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

The full and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, interest, Additional Amounts and any other amounts payable in respect of the Notes, when and as the same shall become due and payable by the Issuer in respect of the Notes, whether at the Stated Maturity thereof, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, call for repurchase or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the Notes and of the Indenture shall also be guaranteed by any other Guarantor that may guarantee the Notes.

(b) Form of Reverse of Note.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of November 12, 2013 (herein called the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 12, 2013 (herein called the “First Supplemental Indenture”; the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), each among the Issuer, WPP PLC, a public company limited by shares incorporated under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 (the “Parent Guarantor”), WPP JUBILEE LIMITED, a private limited company organized and existing under the laws of England and Wales, and WPP 2005 LIMITED, a private limited company organized and existing under the laws of England and Wales (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors” and, together with the Parent Guarantor, the “Guarantors” which term includes any Successor Person under the Indenture), Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), Citibank, N.A., as Security Registrar and Principal Paying Agent, and Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as a Paying Agent, and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Agents and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The interest rate payable on the Notes shall be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Xxxxx’x or S&P, or in either case, a Substitute Rating Agency thereof, downgrades (or subsequently upgrades) the rating assigned to the Notes, in the manner described below.

If the rating of the Notes from Xxxxx’x or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase from the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date by the percentage points set forth below opposite that rating:


Xxxxx’x Rating*	Percentage Points

Ba1		0.25
Ba2		0.50
Ba3		0.75
B1 or below		1.00

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

If the rating of the Notes from S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase from the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date by the percentage points set forth below opposite that rating:


S&P Rating*	Percentage Points

BB+		0.25
BB		0.50
BB-		0.75
B+ or below		1.00

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

If, at any time, the interest rate on the Notes has been adjusted upward and either Xxxxx’x or S&P (or, in either case, a Substitute Rating Agency thereof), as the case may be, subsequently increases its rating of the Notes to any of the ratings set forth in the tables above, the interest rate on the Notes shall be decreased such that the interest rate for the Notes equals the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date plus the applicable percentage points set forth opposite the ratings in the tables above in effect immediately following the ratings increase. If Xxxxx’x or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof subsequently increases its rating of the Notes to Baa3 (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher and S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof increases its rating to BBB- (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher, the interest rate on the Notes shall be decreased to the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

Each adjustment required by any decrease or increase in a rating set forth above, whether occasioned by the action of Xxxxx’x or S&P (or, in either case, any Substitute

Rating Agency thereof), shall be made independent of any and all other adjustments. In no event shall (i) the interest rate on the Notes be reduced to below the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date or (ii) the total increase in the interest rate on the Notes exceed 2.00 percentage points above the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

No adjustments in the interest rate of the Notes shall be made solely as a result of a Rating Agency ceasing to provide a rating of the Notes. If, at any time, less than two Rating Agencies provide a rating of the Notes for any reason beyond the Issuer’s control, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a rating of the Notes from a Substitute Rating Agency, to the extent one exists, and if a Substitute Rating Agency exists, for purposes of determining any increase or decrease in the interest rate on the Notes pursuant to the table above (x) such Substitute Rating Agency shall be substituted for the last Rating Agency to provide a rating of the Notes but which has since ceased to provide such rating, (y) the relative ratings scale used by such Substitute Rating Agency to assign ratings to senior unsecured debt shall be determined in good faith by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Issuer and, for purposes of determining the applicable ratings included in the applicable table above with respect to such Substitute Rating Agency, such ratings shall be deemed to be the equivalent ratings used by Xxxxx’x or S&P, as applicable, in such table and (z) the interest rate on the Notes shall increase or decrease, as the case may be, such that the interest rate equals the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date plus the appropriate percentage points, if any, set forth opposite the rating from such Substitute Rating Agency in the applicable table above (taking into account the provisions of clause (y) above) (plus any applicable percentage points resulting from a decreased rating by the other Rating Agency).

For so long as only one Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes, any subsequent increase or decrease in the interest rate of the Notes necessitated by a reduction or increase in the rating by such Rating Agency shall be twice the percentage points set forth in the applicable table above. For so long as no Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes, the interest rate on the Notes shall increase to, or remain at, as the case may be, 2.00 percentage points above the interest rate payable on the Notes on the Issue Date.

The interest rate on the Notes shall permanently cease to be subject to any adjustment described above (notwithstanding any subsequent decrease in the ratings by either or both Rating Agencies) if the Notes become rated A2 and A (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher by Xxxxx’x and S&P, respectively (or, in either case, any Substitute Rating Agency thereof), or one of these ratings if the Notes are only rated by one Rating Agency.

Any interest rate increase or decrease described herein shall take effect from the first day of the interest period during which a rating change requires an adjustment in the interest rate. If Xxxxx’x or S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof changes its

rating of the Notes more than once during any particular interest period, the last change by such agency during such period shall control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease with respect to the Notes described above relating to such Rating Agency’s action.

“Rating Agencies” means each of Xxxxx’x and S&P and, if any of Xxxxx’x and S&P ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the control of the Issuer, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Issuer (as certified by a Board Resolution) as a replacement agency for Xxxxx’x or S&P or both of them, as the case may be.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx Companies, Inc., or any successor thereto.

“Substitute Rating Agency” means a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Issuer (pursuant to a Board Resolution) as a replacement agency for Xxxxx’x or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

If the interest rate payable on the Notes is increased as described above, then the term “interest,” as used herein, shall be deemed to include any such additional interest unless the context otherwise requires.

The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent, if the Trustee shall not then be acting as Principal Paying Agent, within five calendar days after either Xxxxx’x or S&P or any Substitute Rating Agency thereof downgrades, or subsequently upgrades, the rating assigned to the Notes as described above, an Officers’ Certificate stating (i) that the rating downgrade, or subsequent upgrade, as the case may be, has occurred and (ii) the current rating or ratings upon which the interest rate payable on the Notes shall be based.

The Subsidiary Guarantors and the Parent Guarantor have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the full and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, interest, Additional Amounts and any other amounts payable in respect of the Notes, when and as the same shall become due and payable by the Issuer in respect of the Notes, whether at the stated maturity thereof, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, call for repurchase or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the Notes and of the Indenture. To the extent set forth in the applicable Board Resolutions or a supplemental indenture, the full and punctual payment of the principal, premium, if any, interest, Additional Amounts and any other amounts payable in respect of the Notes, when and as the same shall become due and payable by the Issuer in respect of the Notes, whether at the stated maturity thereof, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, call for repurchase or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of the Notes and of the Indenture may also be guaranteed by any other Guarantor that may guarantee the Notes.

The Issuer shall have the right, at its option to redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to their Stated Maturity, on at least 30 days’ but no more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes and (2) the sum of the present values of each remaining scheduled payment of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the Redemption 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 30 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Issuer.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation or (2) if the Issuer obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. and RBS Securities Inc. or their respective affiliates and a Primary Treasury Dealer (as defined herein) selected by Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC, in each case which are primary United States government securities dealers and two other leading primary United States government securities dealers in New York City reasonably designated by the Issuer; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary United States government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Issuer by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

As provided in the First Supplemental Indenture, the Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes upon the occurrence of certain events relating to taxation, as a result of which the Issuer or a Guarantor becomes obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the Notes, in which case the Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole but not in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest (including additional interest and Additional Amounts, if any) to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption (unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued and unpaid interest). On or before the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and (unless the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date on the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, Security Registrar or the Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, by such method as the Trustee, Security Registrar or the Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, shall deem fair and appropriate.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture, each Holder shall have the option to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any portion of its Notes (in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) on the Repurchase Date (as defined below) at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

Promptly upon the Issuer becoming aware that a Change of Control Repurchase Event has occurred, the Issuer shall, and at any time upon the Trustee becoming similarly so aware, the Trustee may, and if so requested by Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, shall (subject in each case to the Trustee being indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction), give notice (the “Change of Control Repurchase Event Notice”) to the Holders specifying the nature of the Change of Control Repurchase Event and the procedure for exercising the Holders’ repurchase option. If not previously sent, the Change of Control Repurchase Event Notice must be sent to the Holders, the Trustee, the Security Registrar and the Principal Paying Agent no later than 30 days after the occurrence of the Change of Control Repurchase Event.

To exercise the option to require the repurchase of a Note following the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event the Holder of the Note shall deliver such Note, on any Business Day during the period (the “Repurchase Period”) beginning on the date the Change of Control Repurchase Event Notice is given and ending 45 days thereafter, at the specified office of the Trustee, accompanied by a duly signed and completed notice of exercise (a “Change of Control Repurchase Notice”) in the form (for the time being current) which shall be provided with the Change of Control Repurchase Event Notice. A Change of Control Repurchase Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable unless the Issuer elects to permit revocations. All Notes submitted for repurchase shall be purchased by the Issuer on the date that is 3 Business Days after the expiration of the Repurchase Period (the “Repurchase Date”).

On the Repurchase Date, the Issuer shall:

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the repurchase option;

(ii) deposit with the Trustee or Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, an amount equal to the aggregate repurchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

The Trustee or Principal Paying Agent, as applicable, shall promptly mail to each Holder properly tendered the repurchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided, that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 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 Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached the Issuer’s obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

The Issuer shall not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase 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 Issuer, and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent are under no obligation to ascertain whether a Change of Control Repurchase Event or Change of Control or any event which could lead to the occurrence of or could constitute a Change of Control Repurchase Event or Change of Control has occurred and, until it shall have actual knowledge or notice pursuant to the Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee and the Principal Paying Agent may assume that no Change of Control Repurchase Event or Change of Control or other such event has occurred.

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of the series of which this Note is a part or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal amount of, or any premium or interest with respect to, any Note or the date fixed for redemption of any Note shall not be a Business Day at a Place of Payment, then payment of the principal amount, premium, if any, or interest, need not be made on such date at such Place of Payment, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment or the date fixed for redemption, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

All payments pursuant to the Notes and the Guarantees shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, levies, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (“taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of (i) the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors or any Parent Guarantor is incorporated or resident (or deemed for tax purposes to be resident), (ii) the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors or any Parent Guarantor makes payment on the Notes or the Guarantees or (iii) the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (each, an “Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such taxes are required by the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction to be withheld or deducted. In that event, the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors or any Parent Guarantor shall pay by way of additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts of, or in respect of, principal, premium, if any, and interest (“Additional Amounts”) as will result (after deduction of such taxes and any additional taxes payable in respect of such Additional Amounts) in the

payment to each Holder of such Notes of the amounts which would have been payable in respect of such Note or Guarantee had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no Additional Amounts shall be so payable for or on account of:

(i) any taxes that would not have been imposed but for the fact that such Xxxxxx:

(a) was a resident, domiciliary or national of, or engaged in business or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise had some connection with the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction other than the mere ownership of, or receipt of payment under, such Note or Guarantee;

(b) presented (if presentation is required) such Note or Guarantee for payment in the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction, unless such Note or Guarantee could not have been presented for payment in another member state of the European Union; or

(c) presented (if presentation is required) such Note or Guarantee, as the case may be, more than thirty (30) days after the date on which the payment in respect of such Note first became due and payable or provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts if it had presented such Note or Guarantee for payment on any day within such period of thirty (30) days;

(ii) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar taxes;

(iii) any taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from payments of, or in respect of, principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or Guarantee, as the case may be;

(iv) any taxes that are imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by the Holder or the beneficial owner of a Note with a request of the Issuer or any Guarantor addressed to the Holder and received by such Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the first payment date with respect to which such information is required (a) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (b) to make any declaration or other similar claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which, in the case of (a) or (b), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(v) any tax imposed on a payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to the European Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced to conform to, such Directive;

(vi) any taxes payable by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Note or Guarantee to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union; or

(vii) any taxes payable pursuant to an agreement described in Section 1471(b) of the Code or otherwise imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any regulations or agreements thereunder, official interpretations thereof, or any law implementing an intergovernmental approach thereto; or

(viii) any combination of items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii);

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any such Note or Guarantee to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Applicable Taxing Jurisdiction to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been the Holder of the Note.

All references herein, in the Indenture, and in one or more supplemental indentures thereto, the Notes and the Guarantees to principal, premium, if any, interest or any other amount payable in respect of any Note shall be deemed to include all Additional Amounts, if any, payable in respect of such principal, premium, interest or other amount payable, unless the context otherwise requires, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding reference to Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the rights of the Holders of the Notes of each series, on the other hand, to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantors, or all or any of them, with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

Each Holder hereby consents to any Guarantor (or any additional or successor Guarantor) applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for an order sanctioning a reduction in any of its share capital accounts including, without limitation, by re-characterizing any sum standing to the credit of a share premium account as a distributable reserve (a “Reduction of Capital”). Each Holder hereby authorizes and requests the Trustee, on behalf of the Holder, to sign any necessary form of consent that any Guarantor (or any additional or successor Guarantor) may reasonably request in connection with a Reduction of Capital.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and the Trustee shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, shall be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
