Section 2.2. Principal Amount.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Senior Notes to be redeemed.

Except under the circumstances set forth in Section 3.6 of the Original Indenture, the Global Securities will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise be issuable as, Senior Notes in definitive form. Owners

of beneficial interests in such a Global Security will not be considered the registered owners or Holders of Senior Notes for any purpose.

Payment of principal of, any premium or interest on, and any Additional Amounts, if applicable, in respect of, any Senior Note in global form shall be made to the registered Holder thereof.

Section 2.8. Ranking. The Senior Notes will represent the Company’s direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally in right of payment with all the Company’s current and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

Section 2.9. Miscellaneous. The Company is not obligated to redeem or purchase any Senior Notes pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision. The Senior Notes will not be convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company and/or exchangeable for other securities. The amount of payments of principal with respect to the Senior Notes shall not be determined with reference to an index, formula or other method or methods.

This security is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Company (hereinafter called the “Securities”), all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 16, 2004 (the “Original Indenture”), between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 10, 2010 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Original Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto relating to this security (including, without limitation, the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 10, 2010, between the Company and the Trustee) reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitation of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities issued thereunder and of the terms upon which said Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto. This security is one of a series designated on the face as 6.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Senior Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $250,000,000, subject to increase as provided in Section 3.1 of the Indenture. Capitalized terms used herein for which no definition is provided herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.

While this Senior Note is represented by one or more global notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, the Company will cause payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Senior Note to be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, by wire transfer to the extent, in the funds and in the manner required by agreements with, or regulations or procedures prescribed from time to time by, DTC or its nominee, and otherwise in accordance with such agreements, regulations and procedures.

The Senior Notes will not have a sinking fund.

The Senior Notes will be redeemable as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, at a “make-whole” redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (other than accrued interest) on the Senior Notes being redeemed, 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 plus 45 basis points, plus, in either case, any interest accrued but not paid to the date of redemption. Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Senior Notes to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Senior Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

“Quotation Agent” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

The Company will mail a notice of redemption at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed. If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select, by such method as it will deem fair and appropriate, including pro rata or by lot, the Securities to be redeemed in whole or in part.

The Indenture contains provisions for redemption of the Senior Notes for tax purposes in whole but not in part at the option of the Company.

The Indenture also contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of the Senior Notes or of certain restrictive covenants with respect to the Senior Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

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

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Senior Notes to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time Outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Senior Notes, to waive compliance by the Company 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 Senior Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Senior Note and of any Senior Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Senior Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Senior 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 Senior Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Senior Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company for such purpose, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar and duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Senior Notes, of authorized denominations and of like tenor and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge or certain other expenses payable in connection therewith.
