“Three-month LIBOR” means, with respect to any Interest Period from and including November 15, 2016, the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits in U.S. dollars for a three-month period commencing on the first day of that quarterly Interest Period ending on the next Interest Payment Date (for the purposes of this definition, the “Relevant Period”) that appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR determination date for that Interest Period. If such rate does not appear on MoneyLine Telerate Page 3750, three-month LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. dollars for the Relevant Period and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 are offered to prime banks in the London interbank market by four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time on the LIBOR determination date for that Interest Period. The Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of each of such banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, three-month LIBOR with respect to that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 0.00001%) of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, three-month LIBOR with respect to that Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 0.00001%) of the rates quoted by three major banks in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first day of that Interest Period for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for the Relevant Period and in a principal amount of not less than
14
$1,000,000. However, if fewer than three banks selected by the Calculation Agent to provide quotations are quoting as described above, three-month LIBOR for that Interest Period shall be the same as three-month LIBOR as determined for the previous Interest Period or, in the case of the Interest Period commencing on November 15, 2016, the interest rate on the Notes shall be 7.37785%. The establishment of three-month LIBOR for each Interest Period commencing on or after November 15, 2016 by the Calculation Agent shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding. For purposes of this definition, “London banking day” means any day on which commercial banks are open for general business (including dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars) in London, England; “LIBOR determination date” means the second London banking day immediately preceding the first day of the relevant Interest Period; “MoneyLine Telerate Page” means the display on MoneyLine Telerate, Inc., or any successor service, on the Telerate Page 3750 or any replacement page or pages on that service; and “Telerate Page 3750” means the display designated on page 3750 on MoneyLine Telerate Page (or such other page as may replace the 3750 page on the service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. Dollar deposits).
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Early Redemption Date, the yield, calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Early Redemption Date, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated H.15(519) or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption Treasury Constant Maturities, for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life (as defined under “Comparable Treasury Issue” above), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such date of redemption.
“Warrant Issuance Cap” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.01(h)(ii).

ARTICLE 2
TERMS OF SERIES OF SECURITIES
Section 2.01. Terms of Series of Securities. 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 “6.15% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2066” of the Company (the “Notes”).
(b) Issue Price and Aggregate Principal Amount. The Notes shall be issued at a price of 99.712% per each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, and the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture shall be $600,000,000 (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to (i) Section 2.03, 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 9.04 or 11.07 of the Indenture or (ii) Article 3 of this Supplemental Indenture).
(c) Denominations. The Notes shall be issued only in fully registered form, and the authorized denominations of the Notes shall be $1,000 principal amount and any integral multiple thereof.
(d) Scheduled Redemption Date. (i) The Company shall repay the Notes on November 15, 2036 (the “Scheduled Redemption Date”) from the net proceeds raised from the issuance of Replacement Capital Securities on or before the Scheduled Redemption Date pursuant to Section 2.01(d)(ii), and valuing, in the case of Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock, Debt Exchangeable for Equity or Qualifying Capital Securities, the net proceeds raised at 100%, and in the case of Common Stock and rights to acquire Common Stock (including Common Stock and rights to acquire Common Stock issued pursuant to the Corporation’s reinvestment plan or employee benefit plans), the net proceeds raised at the Applicable Percentage. If the Company has not raised sufficient net proceeds to repay the Notes in full on the Scheduled Redemption Date, it shall (i) repay the Notes on the Scheduled Redemption Date in part to the extent of the proceeds so raised and (ii) continue to comply with Section 2.01(d)(ii). For the avoidance of doubt, a Repayment Date shall not constitute a Maturity for the purposes of Section 5.01(2) or 5.03(2) of the Indenture, unless the Company has given notice to the Trustee fixing such date for redemption and stating that the Company has determined to treat that date as a Maturity, in which case such date shall constitute a Maturity for the Notes specified in the applicable Notice of Repayment or Supplemental Notice, as the case may be.
(ii) The Company shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts, subject to a Market Disruption Event, to raise sufficient net
16
proceeds from the issuance of Replacement Capital Securities in a 180-day period ending on the date a Notice of Repayment is given pursuant to Section 3.03 to permit repayment of the Notes Outstanding in full on the Scheduled Redemption Date (the “Replacement Capital Obligation”). If the Company has not raised sufficient net proceeds pursuant to the preceding sentence to permit repayment of all principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes on the Scheduled Redemption Date, it may not otherwise redeem Notes in excess of the proceeds allocated to the Notes as provided below, the unpaid amount shall remain outstanding from quarter to quarter and bear interest, payable on the Quarterly Interest Payment Dates, until repaid, and the Replacement Capital Obligation shall continue to apply to each subsequent Quarterly Interest Payment Date (substituting the relevant Quarterly Interest Payment Date for the Scheduled Redemption Date and a 90-day period for the 180-day period in the definition of “Replacement Capital Obligation”) (the Scheduled Redemption Date and each such subsequent Quarterly Interest Payment Date, a “Repayment Date”) and shall terminate (A) on the Interest Payment Date on which the Company has redeemed the Notes in full in accordance with the Replacement Capital Obligation, (B) when the Notes are otherwise paid in full on the Final Maturity Date or (C) upon an Event of Default resulting in acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Indenture. Unless the Replacement Capital Obligation shall have terminated as aforesaid and except under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.01(d)(vii), the Company’s failure to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient proceeds from the issuance of Replacement Capital Securities to redeem the Notes in full in connection with the redemption of the Notes on a Repayment Date shall constitute a default under clause (5) of the definition of Enforcement Event in the Indenture, but shall in no event constitute an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall have no obligation to exercise any remedies with respect to any Enforcement Event arising from such default unless directed to do so in accordance with and subject to the conditions set forth in Sections 5.12 and 6.02(4) of the Indenture. The Trustee may conclusively assume that the Replacement Capital Obligation has been complied with unless the Company or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes have given the Trustee notice to the contrary. The Company may modify or terminate the Replacement Capital Obligation only in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Indenture except that the Company may amend the Replacement Capital Obligation at any time in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Indenture, (A) where such amendment is not adverse to the Holders of the Notes and the Company has delivered to such Holders and the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such amendment is not adverse to such Holders, (B) to impose additional restrictions on the types of securities qualifying as
17
Replacement Capital Securities, and the Company has delivered to such Holders and the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to that effect or (C) to eliminate Common Stock and/or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock (but only to the extent exchangeable for Common Stock), as securities the proceeds of which may be included for purposes of the Replacement Capital Obligation if, in the case of this clause (C), the Company has been advised in writing by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm that there is more than an insubstantial risk that the failure to do so would result in a reduction in the Company’s earnings per share as calculated for financial reporting purposes.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Supplemental Indenture, if the Company redeems the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) or Section 2.01(j) when any deferred interest remains unpaid and at a time when the Alternative Payment Mechanism is otherwise applicable, the unpaid deferred interest (including Additional Interest thereon) may only be paid pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism.
(iv) Any principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable on November 15, 2066 (the “Final Maturity Date”), regardless of the amount of Replacement Capital Securities the Company has issued and sold by that time.
(v) If any date fixed for redemption or repayment pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price or repayment of the principal amount of the Notes due on that date shall be made on the next day that is a Business Day, without any interest or other payment as a result of such delay.
(vi) “Commercially Reasonable Efforts” to sell Replacement Capital Securities means commercially reasonable efforts by the Company to complete the offer and sale of Replacement Capital Securities to third parties that are not Subsidiaries of the Company in public offerings or private placements. The Company shall not be considered to have made Commercially Reasonable Efforts to effect a sale of Replacement Capital Securities if it determines to not pursue or complete such sale due to pricing, coupon, dividend rate or dilution considerations.
(vii) The Company shall not be required to redeem the Notes on any Repayment Date, and such failure to redeem shall not constitute an Enforcement Event, to the extent of the net proceeds the Company was not able to raise as a result of the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate (which the Trustee shall promptly forward upon receipt to each Holder of the Notes) on the date the related Notice of Repayment pursuant to Section 3.03
18
is given, or prior to the date the related Notice of Repayment required by Section 3.03 would have been given, certifying that:
(A) a Market Disruption Event was existing during the 180-day period preceding the date of such certificate or, in the case of any Quarterly Interest Payment Date, the 90-day period preceding the date of such certificate; and
(B) either (1) the Market Disruption Event continued for the entire 180-day period or 90-day period, as the case may be, or (2) the Market Disruption Event continued for only part of the period, but the Company was unable after Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient net proceeds during the rest of that period to permit repayment of the Notes in full.
(viii) Net proceeds that the Company is permitted to apply to repayment of the Notes on the Repayment Dates pursuant to Section 2.01(d)(i) above shall be applied, first, to pay deferred interest in chronological order to the extent of Eligible Proceeds under the Alternative Payment Mechanism (the amount thereof to be certified by the Company to the Trustee in an Officers’ Certificate), second, to pay current interest that the Company is not paying from other sources and, third, to repay the principal of Notes; provided that if the Company raises less than $5 million of net proceeds from the sale of Replacement Capital Securities during the applicable 180- or 90-day period preceding the date the applicable Notice of Repayment is given pursuant to Section 3.03, the Company shall deliver the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to such effect and the Company shall not be required to repay any Notes on such Repayment Date, but the Company shall use those net proceeds to repay the Notes on the next Repayment Date as of which the Company has raised at least $5 million of net proceeds; provided, further, that if the net proceeds allocable to repay the principal of the Notes shall not be divisible by the authorized denominations of the Notes into a whole number, the net proceeds so allocable shall be deemed to be equal to the next lower amount divisible by such authorized denominations into a whole number; provided, further, that if the Company is obligated to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to sell Replacement Capital Securities and apply the net proceeds to payments of principal of or interest on any outstanding securities in addition to the Notes and the Company shall deliver the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to such effect, then on any date and for any period the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and available for such payments shall be applied to the Notes and those other securities having the same scheduled repayment date or scheduled redemption date as the Notes pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amounts and none of such net proceeds shall be applied to any other securities having a later scheduled repayment date or scheduled redemption date until the principal of and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes has been paid in full.
19
(ix) In the event the Company has delivered a notice to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 in connection with any Repayment Date, the principal amount of Notes payable on such Repayment Date, if any, shall be the principal amount set forth in the Notice of Repayment accompanying such notice and such principal amount of Notes shall be repaid on such Repayment Date pursuant to Article 3, subject to this Section 2.01(d).
(x) The obligation of the Company to repay the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) on any date prior to the Final Maturity Date shall be subject to its obligations under Article 13 of the Indenture to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.
(e) Rate of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from November 14, 2006. The Notes shall bear interest (i) from and including November 14, 2006 to but excluding November 15, 2016 at the annual rate of 6.15%, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and (ii) from and including November 15, 2016 to but excluding the Final Maturity Date at an annual rate equal to Three-month LIBOR plus 2.0025%, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Subject to Section 2.01(g) and Section 2.01(h), interest on the Notes shall be payable in cash (i) semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2007, until November 15, 2016 (each such date, a “Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date”) and (ii) quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencing February 15, 2017 until the Final Maturity Date (each such date, a “Quarterly Interest Payment Date”). Any installment of interest (or portion thereof) deferred in accordance with Section 2.01(g) or otherwise unpaid shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the rate of interest then in effect on the Notes, from the relevant Interest Payment Date, compounded on each subsequent Interest Payment Date, until paid in accordance with Section 2.01(h). If any Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment due on that date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement. If any Quarterly Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Quarterly Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the following Business Day unless such Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, in which case the Quarterly Interest Payment Date shall be the preceding Business Day. However, if any Quarterly Interest Payment Date falls on a date fixed for early redemption, or other redemption or repayment, and such day is not a Business Day, the interest payment due on that date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement.
20
(f) To Whom Interest is Payable. Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date to each Person in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, except that (i) interest payable on any Notes on any Repayment Date or Redemption Date and (ii) interest payable on the Final Maturity Date shall be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid.
(g) Option to Defer Interest Payments. (i) The Company shall have the right, on one or more occasions, to defer the payment of interest on the Notes for one or more consecutive Interest Periods during any period of up to 10 years (which may include a combination of semi-annual and quarterly Interest Periods), (a “Deferral Period”) without giving rise to an Event of Default or, unless otherwise indicated below, an Enforcement Event. The Company’s right to defer interest payments shall end on the earliest of (A) the Final Maturity Date, (B) any redemption of the Notes in full prior to the Final Maturity Date or (C) the acceleration of the Notes following an Event of Default. Interest on the Notes shall continue to accrue during Deferral Periods at the then-applicable interest rate on the Notes, compounded on each Interest Payment Date, subject to applicable law.
(ii) The Company shall (A) not later than the Business Day immediately following the first Interest Payment Date during a Deferral Period on which the Company elects to pay current interest or, if earlier, the Business Day following the fifth anniversary of the commencement of the relevant Deferral Period, be required to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to sell Qualifying Securities pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism, subject to the Warrant Issuance Cap, the Preferred Stock Issuance Cap and the Share Cap, and unless the Company has delivered to the Trustee notice of a Market Disruption Event, to apply the Eligible Proceeds to the payment of any deferred interest (and Additional Interest thereon) on the next Interest Payment Date, and this requirement shall continue in effect until the end of the Deferral Period; and (B) not pay deferred interest on the Notes (and Additional Interest thereon) prior to the Final Maturity Date from any source other than Eligible Proceeds unless otherwise required at the time by any applicable regulatory authority, although it may pay current interest at all times from any available funds. The Company’s failure to pay interest on the Notes in accordance with the Alternative Payment Mechanism as required by this Supplemental Indenture shall constitute a default under clause (5) of the definition of Enforcement Event in the Indenture, but shall in no event constitute an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall have no obligation to exercise any remedies with respect to any Enforcement Event
21
arising from such default unless directed to do so in accordance with and subject to the conditions set forth in Sections 5.12 and 6.02(4) of the Indenture. The Trustee may conclusively assume that the Alternative Payment Mechanism has been complied with unless the Company or the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes have given the Trustee notice to the contrary.
(iii) If the Company is involved in a business combination where immediately after its consummation more than 50% of the surviving entity’s voting stock is owned by the shareholders of the other party to the business combination, then the Alternative Payment Mechanism shall not apply to any interest that is deferred and unpaid as of the date of consummation of the business combination. The Alternative Payment Mechanism shall apply, however, to any interest on the Notes that is deferred after such date.
(iv) To the extent that the Company applies proceeds from the sale of Qualifying Securities to pay interest, the Company shall allocate the proceeds to deferred payments of interest (and Additional Interest thereon) in chronological order based on the date each payment was first deferred.
(v) At the end of a 10-year Deferral Period, the Company shall pay all deferred interest. After the Company makes all interest payments that the Company has deferred, including Additional Interest on the deferred payments, the Company may again defer interest payments during new Deferral Periods of up to 10 years, subject to the requirements therefor set forth herein.
(vi) The Company shall give the Holders of the Notes and the Trustee written notice of its election to begin a Deferral Period at least one Business Day before the Regular Record Date for the Interest Payment Date on which such Deferral Period shall begin. However, the Company’s failure to pay interest on an Interest Payment Date shall constitute the commencement of a Deferral Period unless the Company pays such interest within five Business Days of the Interest Payment Date, whether or not it provides a notice of deferral. For the avoidance of doubt, the non-payment of such interest for five Business Days does not give rise to a default under the Indenture.
(vii) So long as any Notes remain Outstanding during any Deferral Period, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to declare or pay any dividends or any Distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment on, any shares of the Company’s capital stock or make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, or repay, repurchase or redeem any of the
22
Company’s debt securities that rank pari passu with or junior to the Notes. However, at any time, including during any Deferral Period, the Company shall be permitted to: (A) pay dividends or Distributions to common shareholders in the form of additional shares of Common Stock; (B) declare or pay a dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, or issue stock under such a plan, or redeem or repurchase any rights distributed pursuant to such a plan and (C) purchase Common Stock for issuance pursuant to any employee benefit plans. In addition, if any Deferral Period lasts longer than one year, the Company shall not, subject to the limited exceptions set forth in this Section 2.01(g)(vii) and unless required to do so by any applicable regulatory authority, repurchase, or permit its Subsidiaries to purchase, Common Stock for a one-year period following the date on which all deferred interest has been paid pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism. If the Company is involved in a business combination where immediately after its consummation more than 50% of the surviving entity’s voting stock is owned by the shareholders of the other party to the business combination, then the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to any Deferral Period that is terminated on the next Interest Payment Date following the date of consummation of the business combination.
(h) Alternative Payment Mechanism. (i) Subject to certain conditions described in Section 2.01(h)(ii) and the exception described in Section 2.01(h)(iv) below, if the Company defers interest on the Notes, it shall be required, not later than (i) the Business Day immediately following the first Interest Payment Date during a Deferral Period on which it elects to pay current interest, or (ii) if earlier, the Business Day following the fifth anniversary of the commencement of a Deferral Period, to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to begin issuing Qualifying Securities to Persons that are not its Affiliates. The Company shall be required, with respect to any subsequent Interest Payment Date during a Deferral Period until the deferred interest has been paid in full, to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to sell Qualifying Securities until the Company has raised an amount of Eligible Proceeds that is sufficient to pay all deferred interest (and Additional Interest thereon) accrued up to such Interest Payment Date. The Company shall not pay deferred interest (and Additional Interest thereon) on the Notes prior to the Final Maturity Date from any source other than Eligible Proceeds, unless otherwise required at the time by any applicable regulatory authority. This method of funding the payment of accrued and unpaid interest is referred to as the “Alternative Payment Mechanism.”
(ii) Under the Alternative Payment Mechanism, the Company shall not issue Qualifying Warrants for the purposes of the Alternative Payment Mechanism prior to the fifth anniversary of the commencement of any Deferral Period to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock underlying any issuance of Qualifying Warrants applied to pay deferred interest on the Notes, together with the number of shares
23
underlying all prior issuances of Qualifying Warrants during such Deferral Period so applied, would exceed 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date of the Company’s then most recent publicly available consolidated financial statements (the “Warrant Issuance Cap”). In addition, the Company shall not issue Perpetual Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock for the purposes of the Alternative Payment Mechanism to the extent that the net proceeds of any issuance of Perpetual Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock applied to pay deferred interest on the Notes, together with the net proceeds of all prior issuances of Perpetual Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock so applied, would exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding as of November 15, 2006 (the “Preferred Stock Issuance Cap”). Once the Company reaches the Warrant Issuance Cap for any Deferral Period, it may not issue more Qualifying Warrants prior to the fifth anniversary of the commencement of such Deferral Period pursuant to the Alternative Payment Mechanism even if there is a subsequent increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Warrant Issuance Cap shall cease to apply following the fifth anniversary of the commencement of any Deferral Period, at which point the Company may only pay any deferred interest, regardless of the time at which it was deferred (other than on the Final Maturity Date), using the Alternative Payment Mechanism, subject to the Preferred Stock Issuance Cap, the Share Cap and any Market Disruption Event. If the Warrant Issuance Cap has been reached during a Deferral Period and the Company subsequently pays all deferred payments (and Additional Interest thereon), the Warrant Issuance Cap shall cease to apply, and shall only apply again once the Company starts a new Deferral Period. The Preferred Stock Issuance Cap shall apply so long as the Notes remain Outstanding and all proceeds of issuances of Perpetual Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock used to pay deferred interest hereunder shall count against such cap. The Company shall not issue Qualifying Warrants for the purposes of the Alternative Payment Mechanism to the extent that the total number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Qualifying Warrants, together with all prior issuances of Qualifying Warrants, exceeds 50 million shares (the “Share Cap”). The Share Cap shall apply so long as the Notes remain Outstanding, other than on the Final Maturity Date. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the Share Cap from time to time (without having to comply with Article 9 of the Indenture) to a number of shares of Common Stock that would allow it to satisfy its obligations with respect to the Alternative Payment Mechanism by delivering to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the increased Share Cap. The Share Cap shall be adjusted proportionately for any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or other similar transaction, effective upon the effective date of any such transaction.
24
(iii) If, due to a Market Disruption Event or otherwise, the Company were able to raise some, but not all, Eligible Proceeds necessary to pay all deferred interest (including Additional Interest thereon) on any Interest Payment Date, the Company shall apply any available Eligible Proceeds to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date in chronological order. If the Company shall have outstanding securities in addition to, and that rank pari passu with, the Notes under which the Company is obligated to sell Qualifying Securities and apply the net proceeds to the payment of deferred interest or Distributions and the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to such effect, then on any date and for any period the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and available for payment of the deferred interest and Distributions shall be applied to the Notes and those other securities on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amounts, or on such other basis as any applicable regulator shall approve.
(iv) The Company shall be relieved of its obligations under the Alternative Payment Mechanism in respect of any Interest Payment Date if it delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee (which the Trustee shall promptly forward upon receipt to each Holder of the Notes) no more than 30 and no less than 15 days in advance of that Interest Payment Date certifying that a Market Disruption Event was existing after the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date; and either:
(1) the Market Disruption Event continued for the entire period from the Business Day immediately following the preceding Interest Payment Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such certification is provided; or
(2) the Market Disruption Event continued for only part of this period, but the Company was unable after using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient Eligible Proceeds during the rest of that period to pay all accrued and unpaid interest.
“Commercially Reasonable Efforts” to sell securities in accordance with the Alternative Payment Mechanism means commercially reasonable efforts to complete the offer and sale of Qualifying Securities to third parties that are not Subsidiaries of the Company in public offerings or private placements. The Company shall not be relieved of its obligations under the Alternative Payment Mechanism if it determines not to pursue or complete the sale of Qualifying Securities due to pricing, dividend rate or dilution considerations.
25
(i) Events of Default. Clauses (1) through (4) of Section 5.01 of the Indenture shall constitute Events of Default with respect to the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, and without prejudice to any other remedies that may be available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture, no breach by the Company of any other covenant or obligation under the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or the terms of the Notes shall be an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.
(j) Redemption. (i) Subject to obtaining any then-required regulatory approval, the Notes are redeemable (A) in whole or in part, at any time on or after November 15, 2016 at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, provided that in the event of a redemption in part that the principal amount outstanding after such redemption is at least $50,000,000; (B) in whole or in part, prior to November 15, 2016, in cases not involving a Tax Event or Rating Agency Event, at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption or, if greater, the Make-Whole Price, provided that in the event of a redemption in part the principal amount outstanding after such redemption is at least $50,000,000; and (C) in whole, but not in part, prior to November 15, 2016, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Tax Event or Rating Agency Event, at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption or, if greater, the Special Event Make-Whole Price.
(ii) If any date fixed for redemption pursuant to this clause (j) is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price shall be made on the next day that is a Business Day, without any interest or other payment for the delay.
(iii) The Make-Whole Price and the Special Event Make-Whole Price shall be determined on the third Business Day prior to the applicable Redemption Date. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the Make-Whole Price or the Special Event Make-Whole Price, as applicable, promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for such calculation. Notwithstanding Section 11.04 of the Indenture, notice of redemption pursuant to this clause (j) shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 15 days prior to the Redemption Date.
(k) Limitation on Claims in the Event of Bankruptcy, Insolvency or Receivership. Each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of the Notes, agrees that if a Bankruptcy Event shall occur prior to the redemption or repayment of such Notes, such Holder shall only have a claim for, and right to receive, deferred and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest thereon) that has not been paid prior to such event through the application of the Alternative Payment Mechanism to the extent such interest (including Additional Interest thereon) relates to the first two years of the portion of the Deferral Period for which interest has not so been paid.
26
(l) Sinking Fund. The Notes shall not be subject to any sinking fund or similar provisions.
(m) Forms. The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Annex A attached hereto, with such modifications thereto as may be approved by the authorized officer executing the same and shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities.

REPAYMENT OF THE NOTES
Section 3.01. Repayment. The Company shall, not more than 30 and not less than 15 days prior to each Repayment Date, notify the Trustee of the principal amount of Notes to be repaid on such date pursuant to Section 2.01(d), which notice shall have attached thereto the Notice of Repayment, which shall be given by the Trustee to the Holders as soon as practicable thereafter. If the Company anticipates that it will repay the Notes in part, and not in full, on any Repayment Date, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver notice pursuant to this Section 3.01 to the Trustee 30 days prior to such Repayment Date.
Section 3.02. Selection of Securities To Be Repaid. If less than all the Notes are to be repaid on any Repayment Date (unless such repayment affects only a single Note), the particular Notes to be repaid shall be selected not more than 30 days prior to such Repayment Date by the Trustee in accordance with Section 11.03 of the Indenture.
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for partial repayment and the principal amount thereof to be repaid. For all purposes hereof, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the repayment of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note repaid or to be repaid only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Note which has been or is to be repaid. If the Company shall so direct, Notes registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the Notes selected for repayment.
27
Section 3.03. Notice of Repayment. Notice of repayment (each a “Notice of Repayment”) shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than the 30th day, and not earlier than the 15th day, prior to the Repayment Date, to each Holder of the Notes to be repaid, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Security Register; provided that additional notices (each a “Supplemental Notice”) may be given to the Holders specifying additional details relating to such repayment no later than the 10th day prior to the Repayment Date.
Each Notice of Repayment, to the extent not specified thereafter by any applicable Supplemental Notice, shall identify the Notes to be repaid (including CUSIP number, if a CUSIP number has been assigned to the Notes) and shall state:
(a) the Repayment Date and the price at which the Notes are to be repaid;
(b) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be repaid, the identification (and, in the case of partial repayment, the respective principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed;
(c) that on the Repayment Date, the principal amount of the Notes to be repaid shall become due and payable upon each such Note or portion thereof, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date; and
(d) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the principal amount thereof.
Notice of Repayment shall be given by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Notes designated for repayment as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the repayment of any other Notes.
Section 3.04. Deposit of Repayment Amount. Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Repayment Date specified in the Notice of Repayment, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03 of the Indenture) an amount of money sufficient to pay the principal amount of, and any accrued interest (including Additional Interest thereon) on, all the Notes which are to be repaid on that date.
Section 3.05. Payment of Notes Subject to Repayment. If any Notice of Repayment has been given, the Notes or portion of the Notes with respect to which such notice has been given, or if any Supplemental Notice is given which
28
identifies the particular Notes to be redeemed, the Notes or portion thereof so identified, shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice. On presentation and surrender of such Notes at a Place of Payment in said notice specified, the Notes or the specified portion thereof shall be paid by the Company at their principal amount, together with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest thereon) to the Repayment Date.
Upon presentation of any Note repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Note or Notes, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the portion of the Note not repaid and so presented and having the same date of original issuance, Stated Maturity and terms.
If any Note called for repayment shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof, the principal of such Note shall, until paid, bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate prescribed therefore in the Note.
