ARTICLE II
APPLICATION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
AND CREATION, FORMS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF NOTES

Section 2.01. Application of this Supplemental Indenture.

This Supplemental Indenture supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith, replaces, the provisions of the Base Indenture, to which provisions reference is hereby made.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, including the covenants in this Supplemental Indenture, are expressly and solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes. The Notes constitute a separate series of Securities as provided in Section 2.01 of the Base Indenture. All Initial Notes and Additional Notes, if any, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture, including waivers, amendments, and redemptions.

The changes, modifications and supplements to the Base Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture shall be applicable only with respect to, and govern the terms of, and shall be deemed expressly included in this Supplemental Indenture solely for the benefit of, the Notes (which shall be initially in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000) and shall not apply to any other series of Securities that has been or may be issued under the Base Indenture unless a supplemental indenture with respect to such other series of Securities specifically incorporates such changes, modifications and supplements.

Section 2.02. Creation of the Notes.

(a)           In accordance with Section 2.01 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby creates the Notes as a separate series of its Securities issued pursuant to the Base Indenture. The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Supplemental Indenture is not limited. The Notes shall be issued initially in an aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000 (the “Initial Notes”).

(b)           With respect to any Additional Notes, there shall be (i) set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures supplemental to the Indenture, prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes:

(i)            the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to the Indenture; and

(ii)           the issue date (and the corresponding date from which interest shall accrue thereon and the first interest payment date therefor) and the CUSIP or ISIN number of such Additional Notes.

Section 2.03. Form of the Notes.

The Depositary for the Notes shall initially be DTC. The Notes shall each be initially issued in the form of a Global Security, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, which shall be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as the nominee of DTC. The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global Security, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, shall be considered the sole owner or Holder of the Notes represented by such Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture and under such Notes. Ownership of beneficial interests in such Global Security shall be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effective only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or Persons that hold interests through participants (with respect to beneficial interests of beneficial owners). Notwithstanding the third sentence of the third paragraph of Section 2.16 of the Base Indenture, Notes shall be issued and delivered in physical, certificated form to all beneficial owners of the any Global Security representing Notes if, and only if:

(a)           DTC notifies the Company at any time that DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Global Security;

(b)           DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act; or

(c)           an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 2.04. Terms and Conditions of the Notes.

The Notes shall be governed by all the terms and conditions of the Indenture, including this Supplemental Indenture. Except as expressly specified herein, each of the provisions of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes. In particular, the following provisions shall be terms of the Notes:

(a)           Title and Conditions of the Notes. The title of the Notes shall be as specified in the recitals; and the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Notes shall be $150,000,000.

(b)           Stated Maturity. The Notes shall mature, and the principal of the Notes shall be due and payable to the Holders thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on November 30, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”).

(c)           Payment of Principal and Interest. All principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable in U.S. Dollars. The Notes shall bear interest at 7.00% per annum, from and including November 8, 2021, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined hereafter) on which interest has been paid or provided for until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal. If an Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the applicable interest payment will be made on the next following Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest will accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Notes shall be payable quarterly in arrears in U.S. Dollars on February 28, May 31, August 31 and November 30 of each year, commencing on February 28, 2022 (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date” for purposes of the Notes). Payments of interest shall be made to the Person in whose name a Note (or predecessor Note) is registered in the records of the Registrar (which shall initially be the Depositary or its nominee) at the close of business on the February 15, May 15, August 15 or November 15, as applicable (whether or not a Business Day), immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date” for the purposes of the Notes). The Company shall make payments on the Notes so long as represented by a Global Security in accordance with the applicable procedures of the DTC in effect from time to time. If the Notes are no longer represented by a Global Security, the Company will make payments on any Notes (i) in the case of interest due on an Interest Payment Date, by check mailed on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Note at his or her address shown on the Register on the related Regular Record Date or (ii) in the case of principal, by check upon surrender of such Note at the office of the Trustee in the contiguous United States or other offices that may be specified in the Indenture or a notice to Holder.

(d)           Registration and Form. The Notes shall be issuable as registered securities as provided in Section 2.03. The form of the Notes shall be as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Notes shall be issued, and the transfer thereof may be registered, only in minimum denominations of $25.00 and integral multiples of $25.00 in excess thereof. All payments of principal, Redemption Price and accrued unpaid interest in respect of the Notes shall be made by the Company as set forth in the Notes. The registration, registration of transfers and exchanges of Notes shall be effected in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Base Indenture. A transfer or exchange shall be made only if the Registrar is satisfied with a Holder’s proof of legal ownership.

(e)           Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The provisions for legal defeasance in Section 8.02 of the Base Indenture, and the provisions for covenant defeasance in Section 8.03 of the Base Indenture, shall be applicable to the Notes. If the Company shall effect a defeasance of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 of the Base Indenture, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 of the Base Indenture (i) the Company shall be discharged and released from, and shall be deemed to have satisfied, its obligations as specified in Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 of the Base Indenture, as applicable, to the extent specified therein, (ii) the Company shall cease to have any obligation to comply with Article IV of this Supplemental Indenture, and (iii) payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default.

(f)            Further Issuance. The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Holders, create and issue (i) additional debt securities, including additional series of Securities under the Base Indenture having the same terms as to interest rate, maturity and other terms (except for the issue date, the public offering price, the date on which interest first accrues on such Securities and the first interest payment date) as, and ranking equally and ratably with, the Initial Notes (such Securities having the same terms as the Notes (except as aforesaid), “Additional Notes”). Any such Additional Notes may constitute a single fungible series with the Initial Notes for federal income tax purposes. If any such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers. All references herein to the Notes shall include the Initial Notes and any such fungible Additional Notes. The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes subsequently issued upon original issue under the Indenture shall be considered collectively as a single class for all purposes of the Indenture, including directions, waivers, amendments, consents and redemptions. Holders of the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes therefore will vote and consent together on all matters to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent as one class, and none of the Holders of the Initial Notes or any Additional Notes shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent.

(g)           Redemption. The Notes are subject to redemption by the Company in whole or in part in the manner described in Article III of this Supplemental Indenture.

(h)           Sinking Fund. The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund.

(i)            Other Terms and Conditions. The Notes shall have such other terms and conditions as provided elsewhere in the Indenture and in the form thereof attached as Exhibit A hereto.

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will, subject to applicable law, select Notes for redemption not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date on a pro-rate basis or by-lot any other method the Trustee deems fair and appropriate, provided, that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Notes will be in an authorized denomination (which will not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for the Notes.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

Beneficial interests in any Notes called for redemption that are represented by Global Securities will be selected by DTC or any successor Depositary in accordance with DTC’s or such successor Depositary’s applicable procedures.

If the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, Notes will be selected in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed.

The Company will inform the Trustee of any such listing and of the requirements of such exchange as to the selection of the Notes for redemption.

ARTICLE IV
COVENANTS

The provisions of Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes, except as otherwise stated in, or to the extent inconsistent with, this Article IV. Sections 3.02 and 4.01 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes and shall be deemed replaced by Sections 4.01 and 4.02, respectively, of this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 4.01. Reporting.

The Company will furnish or file with the Trustee, within 15 days after it files the same with the SEC, copies of the annual reports and the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. If the Company is not subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding sentence with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing, but in such event the reports specified in the preceding sentence shall not be required to contain certain disclosures relating to the Company’s controls and procedures, corporate governance, code of ethics, director independence, market for the Company’s equity securities and executive compensation. The Company will not take any action for the purpose of causing the SEC not to accept any such filings. For purposes of this covenant, the Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports and information to, or filed such reports and information with, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes as required by this covenant if it has filed such reports or information with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system or otherwise made such reports or information publicly available on a freely accessible page on the Company’s website. The Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such reports and information have been filed or have been posted on such website. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the trustee is for informational purposes only and the trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute actual or constructive knowledge or notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

Section 4.02. Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets.

The Company shall not, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions, consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person or sell, assign (excluding any assignment solely as collateral for security purposes), transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person, unless:

(a)           the Company shall be the successor or continuing Person or, if the Company is not the successor or continuing Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Surviving Entity”) is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia that expressly assumes all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture pursuant to a supplement hereto executed and delivered to the Trustee;

(b)           immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of related transactions, no Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing; and

(c)           the Company or any such Surviving Entity shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel each stating that such transaction or series of related transactions and any supplement hereto complies with the terms of the Indenture and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to such transaction or series of related transactions have been complied with.

If any consolidation or merger or any sale, assignment, lease, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets occurs in accordance with the terms hereof, the Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company under the Indenture with the same effect as if such Surviving Entity had been named as the Company. The Company shall (except in the case of a lease) be discharged from all obligations and covenants under the Indenture and any Note issued hereunder, and may be liquidated and dissolved.

Section 4.03. Exchange Listing.

After the Notes are initially listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or another national securities exchange, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Notes to continue be listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or another national securities exchange in the United States.

In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.02(d) occurs, the principal of all Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall become due and payable immediately without further action or notice by the Trustee or the Holders.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (by written notice to the Trustee) may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, rescind and cancel such declaration and its consequences if:

(e)            in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default, the Trustee has received an Officers’ Certificate that such Event of Default has been cured or waived.

Section 5.04. Other Specified Remedies.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.03 of this Supplemental Indenture, Section 6.03 of the Base Indenture, or any other provision of the Indenture or the Notes, the sole remedy with respect to an Event of Default due to the Company’s failure to comply with the reporting requirements under Section 314 of the TIA or under Section 4.01 of this Supplemental Indenture, for the first 180 calendar days after the occurrence of such Event of Default, consists exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to (1) 0.25% for the first 90 calendar days after such Event of Default and (2) 0.50% for calendar days 91 through 180 after such Event of Default. On the 181st day after such Event of Default, if such violation is not cured or waived, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes may declare the principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be due and payable immediately. If the Company elects to pay such additional interest, it shall notify the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes by certificate of the Company’s election at any time on or before the close of business on the first Business Day following the Event of Default. No additional interest shall be due or payable other than with respect to such failure to comply with reporting requirements.

Section 5.05. Limitation on Suits.

Subject to Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture, a Holder of a Notes may not pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a)            such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing with respect to such series;

(b)            Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested in writing that the Trustee pursue the remedy;

(c)            such Holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense;

(d)            the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(e)            the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.
