The Notes shall be offered pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to QIBs and in reliance on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. For so long as any of the Notes constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) promulgated under the Securities Act, the Issuer shall, if the Issuer is not then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, furnish to any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes, or to any prospective purchaser of such Notes designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, in each case upon the written request of such Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser, the information required to be provided pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act.

Section 5.02. Transfers of Notes.

(a) The following provisions shall apply with respect to any proposed transfer of any Transfer Restricted Note prior to the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales of such Notes under Rule 144, and the Security Registrar shall refuse to register any transfer of such Notes not complying with the restrictions set forth in the Restricted Notes Legend and in this Article V. In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 305 of the Indenture, Restricted Transfer Notes that are presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange pursuant to Section 305 of the Indenture shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable, upon which the Security Registrar may conclusively rely:

(1) if such Transfer Restricted Notes are being delivered to the Security Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto);

(2) if such Transfer Restricted Notes are being transferred (1) to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144 or (2) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto);

-5-

(3) if such Transfer Restricted Notes are being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 903 or Rule 904 of Regulation S, certifications to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form of Exhibit B and Exhibit C hereto); or

(4) if such Transfer Restricted Notes are being transferred in reliance on and in compliance with (1) an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (2) another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form of Exhibit B attached hereto) and an opinion of counsel, certification or other evidence as may reasonably be required to that effect if the Issuer or the Trustee so requests.

(b) A Holder of a beneficial interest in Regulation S Global Note who wishes to transfer its interest in such Note to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A who takes delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note shall deliver to the Security Registrar a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto) upon which the Security Registrar may conclusively rely. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be transferred without requiring the certification set forth in this Section 5.02(b).

(c) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with Section 305 of the Indenture and Section 3.01 and Section 5.02 herein (including the restrictions on transfer set forth therein and herein) and the rules and procedures of the Depositary therefor, which shall include restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth therein and herein to the extent required by the Securities Act; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be made pursuant to such restrictions only (1) to a Person that is not a U.S. person or for the account or benefit of a Person that is not a U.S. person within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act or (2) to a QIB, in each case that hold such interests through Euroclear or Clearstream.

(d) If Notes are issued upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Restricted Notes Legend, the Notes so issued shall not bear such legends. If Notes are issued upon the registration or transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Restricted Notes Legend, or if a request is made to remove the Restricted Notes Legend on a Note, the Notes so issued shall bear the Restricted Notes Legend, or the Restricted Notes Legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Issuer such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of counsel, as may be reasonably required by the Issuer that neither the Restricted Notes Legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A, Rule 144 or Regulation S, that such Notes are not “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 or that such Notes were transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer, shall authenticate and deliver a Note that does not bear the Restricted Notes Legend. If a Restricted Notes Legend is removed from the face of a Note and the Note is subsequently held by an Affiliate of the Issuer, the Restricted Notes Legend and the restrictions on transfer set forth therein shall be reinstated.

-6-

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor the Security Registrar shall have any responsibility to receive any letters, opinions or certifications, nor any responsibility to monitor compliance with any transfer restrictions, in connection with any transfer or exchange of any beneficial interest in a Global Note for a beneficial interest in the same Global Note.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Transfer Restricted Notes are exchanged for an Exchange Notes in connection with an effective registration statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer shall issue and, at the direction of the Issuer, the Trustee shall authenticate the Exchange Notes in exchange for Transfer Restricted Notes accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offer, which Exchange Notes shall not bear the Restricted Notes Legend, and the Security Registrar shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Exchange Notes.

For purposes of determining the Redemption Price, the following definitions shall apply:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by the 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 the Notes to be redeemed.

A-4

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, for any Redemption Date, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC and Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC or their respective affiliates which are primary U.S. government securities dealers in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), and their respective successors; provided, however, that if either of the foregoing and its affiliates and subsidiaries shall not be a Primary Treasury Dealer at the appropriate time, the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, 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 Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity (computed by the Company as of the second Business Day immediately preceding such Redemption Date) 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.

The election of the Issuer to redeem any Notes need not be evidenced by a Board Resolution.

6. Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes or to repurchase them at the option of the Holders.

7. Notice of Redemption. Any notice of redemption shall be given at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and with respect to which the Redemption Price has been paid.

8. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Security Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes or other governmental charges imposed in relation thereto.
