Section 2.2. Maturity. The Stated Maturity of principal of the Notes shall be January 15, 2025.

Section 2.3. Further Issues. The Company may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of any series of the Notes, issue additional Notes of any series. Any such additional Notes shall have the same ranking, interest rate, maturity date and other terms as the relevant series of the Notes. Any such additional notes of a series, together with the Notes of the relevant series herein provided for, shall constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture.

Section 2.4. Payment. Principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee located at 000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Corporate Unit; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder to the Company and the Trustee; and provided, further, that the Company will pay principal of and interest on, the Notes in global form registered in the name of or held by The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or such other Depositary as any Officer of the Company may from time to time designate, or its respective nominee, by wire in immediately available funds to such Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such Notes in global form.

Section 2.5. Global Securities. Upon the original issuance, the Notes will be represented by Global Securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC. The Company will deposit the Global Securities with DTC or its custodian and register the Global Securities in the name of Cede & Co.

Section 2.6. Interest.

(a) The Notes will bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) from December 11, 2014 at the rate of 3.95% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest accrued from December 11, 2014, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for. The Interest Payment Dates on which such interest shall be payable are January 15 and July 15, commencing on July 15, 2015; and the Record Date for the interest payable on any Interest Payment Date is the close of business on January 1 or July 1 as the case may be, next preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date.

(b) The interest rate on the Notes shall increase by 25 basis points (0.25% per annum) (the “Interest Rate Adjustment”) if the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms without the Merger having been consummated (the date of such termination being referred to as the “Merger Termination Date”). The Interest Rate Adjustment shall take effect on the first day of the semi-annual interest period commencing after the Merger Termination Date. The Issuer shall provide notice to the Trustee promptly following the occurrence of the Merger Termination Date.

Section 2.7. Authorized Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.8. Redemption and Sinking Fund.

(a) Sinking Fund. The Notes shall not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

(b) Rights of Issuers to Redeem Notes.

At any time and from time to time prior to October 15, 2024 (three months prior to the Maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes outstanding at a Redemption Price (calculated by the Company) equal to the greater of:

(i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and

(ii) an amount equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on such Notes to be redeemed (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date and subject to the right of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) discounted from their scheduled date of payment to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points,

plus, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.8(b), accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to such Redemption Date.

On or after October 15, 2024 (three months prior to the Maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes outstanding at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to such Redemption Date.

For purposes of this clause (b)(ii):

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of a Note being 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 comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of such Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for any Note: (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or (2) if the Company is given fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all quotations provided to the Company.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, to be appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means four primary U.S. Government securities dealers to be selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for any Note, the average, as determined by the Issuers 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 Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, at the time of computation, (1) the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the United States Treasury Securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15(519) which has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data) for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided, however, that if no maturity is within three months before or after the Stated Maturity for the Notes, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month; or (2) if that 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 semiannual 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 that Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated by the Company on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

To the extent not specified above, any redemption of any Notes pursuant to this Section 2.8(b) shall be in accordance with the provisions of Article XI of the Indenture.

Section 2.9. Ranking. The Notes shall be senior unsecured debt securities of the Issuers, ranking equally with the Issuers’ other unsecured and unsubordinated debt.

Section 2.10. Appointments. The Trustee will be the initial Security Registrar and initial Paying Agent for the Notes.

Section 2.11. Defeasance. The Company may elect, at its option at any time, pursuant to Section 1301 of the Indenture, to have Section 1302 or Section 1303 in the Indenture, or both, apply to the Notes, or all, or any principal amount thereof.
