If any interest payment date or maturity date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of interest or principal will be made on the next Business Day as if made on the date that payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after the interest payment date or maturity date, as the case may be, to the date of the payment on the next Business Day.

However, to the extent any provision of any Notes conflicts with the express provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

In each of these instances, an owner of an interest in the Global Security would be entitled to physical delivery of such Notes in certificated form.

(c) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the applicable Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on and after the Redemption Date.
SECTION 2.12 Change of Control Repurchase Event
(a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, Holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase, in cash, all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of their Notes at a purchase price in cash of 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to, but not including, the date of purchase. Within 30 calendar days following a Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of a transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute a Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Notes. The repurchase must occur no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days after the notice is mailed other than as required by law. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice.
(b) On or before the date specified for the repurchase of the Notes, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:
(i) accept for payment all the Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Company’s offer;
(ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered; and
(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of repurchased Notes.
(c) The Company shall comply with all requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that these requirements conflict with the provisions requiring repurchases of the Notes, the Company shall comply with such requirements instead of the repurchase provisions and shall not be considered to have breached its obligations with respect to repurchasing Notes hereunder.
7
(d) The paying agent will promptly deliver each holder of Notes properly tendered, the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.
(e) The Company shall not be required to comply with the obligations of this Section 2.12 if a third party instead satisfies them, it being understood that such third party may make an offer to repurchase Notes that is conditioned and prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control. The Company shall also not be required to comply with the obligations of this Section 2.12 if notice of redemption has been given hereunder unless there has been a default in the payment of the applicable Redemption Price.
SECTION 2.13 Execution and Authentication of Notes. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents and attested by its Treasurer, one of its Assistant Treasurers, its Secretary, or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with an order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with such order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.
