2.1 Pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Indenture, there is hereby established a series of Securities, the terms of which shall be as follows:
(a) Designation. The Securities of this series shall be known and designated as the “5.375% Senior Notes due 2022” of the Company (the “Senior Notes”).
(b) Aggregate Principal Amount. The aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture is unlimited. $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes are to be issued on the date of this First Supplemental Indenture. The Company has the right to issue additional Senior Notes as Add On Securities in the future.

Any such additional Senior Notes will be treated as part of the same series as the Senior Notes issued on the date of this First Supplemental Indenture for all purposes under the Indenture.
(c) Denominations. The Senior Notes shall be issued only in fully registered form, and the authorized denominations of the Senior Notes shall be $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
(d) Maturity Date. The principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Senior Notes shall be payable in full on August 15, 2022 or, if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (the “Stated Maturity Date”).
(e) Rate of Interest. The Senior Notes shall bear interest on their principal amount from and including the date they are initially issued to but excluding the date on which the principal amount is paid or made available for payment at the annual rate of 5.375%, payable on semi-annually in arrears on each February 15 and August 15, beginning on February 15, 2013 (each such date an “Interest Payment Date”). In the event that any Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement.
(f) To Whom Interest Payable. Interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name the Senior Notes are registered on the applicable Regular Record Date, which shall be the
2
15th calendar day prior to the Interest Payment Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day. Interest on the Senior Notes at maturity will be payable to the Person to whom principal is payable.

Any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring a Senior Note or any interest therein shall thereby be deemed to have agreed to the foregoing.
ARTICLE III
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
3.1. Scope. The additional provisions set forth below shall apply to, and govern the terms of, the Senior Notes and shall not apply to any other series of Securities.
3.2 Limitation on Disposition of Stock of Bank. So long as any Senior Notes shall be Outstanding, neither the Company nor any Intermediate Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) shall (except to the Company or an Intermediate Subsidiary) sell, assign, transfer, grant a security interest in or otherwise dispose of any shares of, securities convertible into, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of Voting Stock (as defined below) of Susquehanna Bank (including any successor thereto, the “Bank”), nor shall the Company or any Intermediate Subsidiary permit the Bank to issue (except to the Company or an Intermediate Subsidiary) any shares of, or securities convertible into, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, Voting Stock of the Bank, nor shall the Company permit any Intermediate Subsidiary that owns any shares of, or securities convertible into, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, Voting Stock of the Bank to cease to be an Intermediate Subsidiary, except that (i) the Company or an Intermediate Subsidiary may make any such sale, assignment, transfer, or grant of a security interest or other disposition for fair market value on the date
3
thereof, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or such Intermediate Subsidiary, as the case may be (which determination shall be conclusive), and evidenced by a duly adopted resolution thereof delivered to the Trustee, and (ii) in each such case, after giving effect thereto, the Company and any one or more Intermediate Subsidiaries shall own at least 80% of the Voting Stock of the Bank then issued and outstanding free and clear of any security interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank may be merged into or consolidated with another banking institution organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, if after giving effect to such merger or consolidation the Company and any one or more Intermediate Subsidiaries own at least 80% of the Voting Stock of such other banking institution and immediately after giving effect thereto and treating any such resulting bank thereafter as the Bank for purposes of this Indenture, no Event of Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and be continuing.
For purposes of this Section, an “Intermediate Subsidiary” means a Subsidiary, other than the Bank, (i) that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and (ii) of which all the shares of each class of capital stock issued and outstanding, and all securities convertible into, and options, warrants and rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, such capital stock, are owned directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of any security interest.
“Voting Stock” of any specified person means 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.
The provisions of this Section shall not prohibit the Company from consolidating with or merging into any other Person or from conveying, transferring or leasing the Company’s properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person as otherwise permitted pursuant to Article VIII of the Indenture.
3.3 Electronic Transmission. The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions from the Company pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, portable document format (or PDF), facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to give such instructions or directions and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding that such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction, except for instances of negligence or willful misconduct. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.
4
3.4 Section 5.12(3) contained in the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes and shall be replaced by the following:
(3) subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel, shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the actions or forbearances specified in or pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interests of Holders of the Senior Notes not joining in the giving of said direction, it being understood that (subject to Section 6.01) the Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders.
3.5 Section 6.01(b)(2) contained in the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes and shall be replaced by the following:
(2) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of certificates and opinions specifically required by any provision hereof to be furnished to it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).
3.6 Section 6.01(d) contained in the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes and shall be replaced by the following:
(d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, unless it receives security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.
3.7 Section 6.02(e) contained in the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes and shall be replaced by the following:
(e) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall
5
determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation.
3.8 The third sentence in the second paragraph of Section 6.06 of the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes.
3.9 The first paragraph of Section 11.03 of the Indenture shall not apply to the Senior Notes and shall be replaced by the following:

If less than all of the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date in accordance with the preceding sentence.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of August 13, 2012 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (l) the entire indebtedness of this Security or (2) certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect 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 Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, 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 Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security 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 Security.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security 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 Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series 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 reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and 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 Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.
A-5
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security 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 Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert this Security as provided in the Indenture.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series 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 Company or the Security Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
