The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the aggregate amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period after excluding amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. Unless the Company elects to calculate the total amount of rent required to be paid through the first date upon which such lease may be terminated without penalty (if such a provision exists), in the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall also include the amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.

13

Subsidiary (such pledges, mortgages and liens being called “Mortgage” or “Mortgages” and such Debt secured by such Mortgages being called “Secured Debt”), without effectively providing that the Notes (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not subordinate to the Notes) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Secured Debt, so long as such Secured Debt shall be so secured, unless after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such Secured Debt plus all Attributable Debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Sale and Leaseback Transaction would not, at the time of such incurrence, issuance, assumption or guarantee, exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets; provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from Secured Debt in any computation under such restriction, indebtedness secured by:

(a)    Mortgages on such property or shares of Capital Stock or Debt existing on the date of this Supplemental Indenture;

(b)    Mortgages on such property or shares of Capital Stock of or Debt of any Person, which Mortgages are existing at the time (i) such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) such Person is merged into or consolidated with the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) the Company or a Subsidiary merges into or consolidates with such Person (in a transaction in which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary), which Mortgage was not incurred in anticipation of such transaction and was outstanding prior to such transaction;

(c)    Mortgages in favor of the Company;

(d)    Mortgages in favor of a governmental entity or in favor of the holders of securities issued by any such entity, pursuant to any contract or statute (including Mortgages to secure debt of the pollution control or industrial revenue bond type) or to secure any indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of construction of the property subject to such Mortgages;

(e)    Mortgages in favor of any governmental entity to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute;

(h)    Mortgages incurred in connection with a Sale and Leaseback Transaction satisfying the provisions set forth in Section 4.09; and

14

(i)    any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses; provided that such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or a part of the same such property or shares of Capital Stock or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

Section 4.09. Limitations on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (not including the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) or to which any such lender or investor is a party, providing for the leasing by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary for a period, including renewals, in excess of three years of any Principal Property the ownership of which has been or is to be sold or transferred, more than 180 days after the completion of construction and commencement of full operation thereof, by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary to such lender or investor or to any Person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such Principal Property (referred to as a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless:

(a)    such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is with a governmental entity that provides financial or tax benefits;

(b)    the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary could create Secured Debt pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 4.08 on the Principal Property to be leased in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Notes; or

(c)    the net proceeds of the sale or transfer of the Principal Property leased pursuant to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is at least equal to the Fair Market Value of such Principal Property and within 180 days after such sale or transfer shall have been made by the Company or by a Restricted Subsidiary, the Company shall apply an amount not less than the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Property leased pursuant to such arrangement or (ii) the Fair Market Value of the Principal Property so leased at the time of entering into such arrangement (as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company; provided that the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company shall be reduced by (x) the principal amount of Notes delivered within 180 days after such sale to the Trustee for retirement and cancellation, and (y) the principal amount of Funded Debt other than Notes, voluntarily retired by the Company within 180 days after such sale. No retirement referred to in this clause (c) may be effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any mandatory sinking fund payment or mandatory prepayment provision.

Section 4.10. Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a)    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company, subject to Section 4.10(d), has exercised its right to redeem the Notes of any series in

(b)    Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company shall deliver a notice to each Holder of Notes that were not redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by applicable law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the Notes. The notice, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, shall state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(c)    On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i)    accept or cause a third party to accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(d)    The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes of any series if (i) a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such an offer otherwise required to be made by the Company and such third party purchases all such Notes of such series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given to the Holders of all of the Notes of such series in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, unless and until there is a default in payment of the Redemption Price.

16

(e)    A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place with respect to the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.

(f)    The Company will comply in all material respects with the 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 as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.10, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue of any such conflict.

Westlake Chemical Corporation

0.875% Senior Note due 2024

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 0.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) of Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture (as defined below).

1. Interest.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay such interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2022. Interest will be paid on each such Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”), even if such Interest Payment Date is a Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 19, 2021. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments of the Redemption Price and Change of Control Payment and principal due at Maturity in respect of the Notes to Holders who surrender such Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments; provided that if any Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date is an Interest Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. The Company will pay all amounts due in respect of the Notes in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make such payments (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States with respect to Notes evidenced by Global Securities and any other Notes with any aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 the Holder of which has provided wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date or (ii) by check payable in such money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any certificated Notes.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar at its office at 601 Travis Street, 16th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

A-6

4. Indenture.

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 19, 2021 (the “Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000. The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, issue additional Notes of the same series as the Notes from time to time without the consent of the Holders. The Notes initially issued and any additional Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single series for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, supplements, redemptions and offers to purchase, provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued for United States federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers from the Notes initially issued. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the Notes, the “Securities”) thereunder.

5. Optional Redemption.

The Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after August 15, 2022, in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to August 15, 2022.

6. Mandatory Redemption.

The Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

7. Notice of Redemption.

The Company shall deliver notice of a redemption not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to Holders of Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is sent, the Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

8. Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to optionally redeem the Notes, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion ($1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided that the principal amount of a Note remaining outstanding after a repurchase in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to deliver a notice to each Holder of the Notes not redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the Change of Control Payment Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by applicable law, describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the Notes.

Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, Notes may also be issued in the form of certificated Notes in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental changes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption in whole or in part (except the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in part) or any Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days prior to the delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or repurchase and ending on the close of business on the day of delivery such notice.

10. Persons Deemed Owners.

11. Amendment; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplement (acting as one class), and any existing or past Default or Event of Default under, or compliance

A-8

with any provision of, the Indenture may be waived (other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) on or interest on the Securities) by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series or of all series (acting as one class) in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities in certain respects set forth in the Indenture.

Without the consent of each Holder affected, the Company may not (i) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Security; (iii) reduce the principal of or premium on, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Security; (iv) reduce the premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed; (v) change any obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; (vi) change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or interest with respect thereto is payable; (vii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on any Security, except as provided in the Indenture; (viii) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of Securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or make any change in the provision for modification; or (ix) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Securities.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities under the Indenture, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

12. Defaults and Remedies.

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of interest that continues for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in any payment of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure by the Company to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the Notes, which shall not have been remedied within the specified time period after written notice; and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

A-9

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

13. Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

14. Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

15. No Recourse Against Others.

A director, officer, member, manager, employee, stockholder, partner or other owner of the Company or the Trustee, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, or for any obligations of the Company or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of Notes.

16. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

17. Abbreviations.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

Westlake Chemical Corporation

2.875% Senior Note due 2041

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 2.875% Senior Notes due 2041 (the “Notes”) of Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture (as defined below).

1. Interest.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay such interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2022. Interest will be paid on each such Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”), even if such Interest Payment Date is a Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 19, 2021. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments of the Redemption Price and Change of Control Payment and principal due at Maturity in respect of the Notes to Holders who surrender such Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments; provided that if any Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date is an Interest Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. The Company will pay all amounts due in respect of the Notes in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make such payments (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States with respect to Notes evidenced by Global Securities and any other Notes with any aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 the Holder of which has provided wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date or (ii) by check payable in such money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any certificated Notes.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar at its office at 601 Travis Street, 16th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

B-6

4. Indenture.

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 19, 2021 (the “Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000. The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, issue additional Notes of the same series as the Notes from time to time without the consent of the Holders. The Notes initially issued and any additional Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single series for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, supplements, redemptions and offers to purchase, provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued for United States federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers from the Notes initially issued. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the Notes, the “Securities”) thereunder.

5. Optional Redemption.

The Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to February 15, 2041 (six months prior to the Stated Maturity of the Notes (the “Par Call Date”)), in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

(a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed; and

(b) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed that would be due if the Notes matured on the Par Call Date (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points,

in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

The Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples

B-7

of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

6. Mandatory Redemption.

Except as set forth below, the Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Upon the first to occur of either (i) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the later of (1) November 1, 2021 and (2) January 30, 2022 if the closing of the acquisition by North American Pipe Corporation from Aalberts U.S. Holding Corp. of Lasco Fittings, Inc. (the “Acquisition”) has been automatically extended in accordance with the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 4, 2021, by and between Aalberts U.S. Holding Corp. and North American Pipe Corporation (the “Purchase Agreement”), in either case if the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to such time on such date, or (ii) the date on which the Purchase Agreement is terminated (each, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger”), the Company shall redeem the Notes, in whole, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, such Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”).

Within five Business Days after the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger, the Company will give notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption to each Holder of the Notes, stating, together with other matters prescribed in the Indenture, that a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger has occurred and that all such Notes of this series shall be redeemed on the Redemption Date set forth in such notice (which will be no earlier than three Business Days and no later than 30 days from the date such notice is given).

Upon the occurrence of the closing of the Acquisition, the foregoing provisions regarding the Special Mandatory Redemption will cease to apply with respect to the Notes.

7. Notice of Redemption.

Other than with respect to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company shall deliver notice of a redemption not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to Holders of Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is sent, the Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

8. Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to optionally redeem the Notes, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion ($1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued

B-8

and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided that the principal amount of a Note remaining outstanding after a repurchase in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to deliver a notice to each Holder of the Notes not redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the Change of Control Payment Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by applicable law, describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the Notes.

9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Notes initially are issued in permanent global form. Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, Notes may also be issued in the form of certificated Notes in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental changes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption in whole or in part (except the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in part) or any Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days prior to the delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or repurchase and ending on the close of business on the day of delivery such notice.

10. Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

11. Amendment; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplement (acting as one class), and any existing or past Default or Event of Default under, or compliance with any provision of, the Indenture may be waived (other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) on or interest on the Securities) by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series or of all series (acting as one class) in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities in certain respects set forth in the Indenture.

B-9

Without the consent of each Holder affected, the Company may not (i) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Security; (iii) reduce the principal of or premium on, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Security; (iv) reduce the premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed; (v) change any obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; (vi) change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or interest with respect thereto is payable; (vii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on any Security, except as provided in the Indenture; (viii) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of Securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or make any change in the provision for modification; or (ix) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Securities.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities under the Indenture, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

12. Defaults and Remedies.

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of interest that continues for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in any payment of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure by the Company to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the Notes, which shall not have been remedied within the specified time period after written notice; and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

B-10

13. Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

14. Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

15. No Recourse Against Others.

A director, officer, member, manager, employee, stockholder, partner or other owner of the Company or the Trustee, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, or for any obligations of the Company or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of Notes.

16. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

Westlake Chemical Corporation

3.125% Senior Note due 2051

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 3.125% Senior Notes due 2051 (the “Notes”) of Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture (as defined below).

1. Interest.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay such interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2022. Interest will be paid on each such Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”), even if such Interest Payment Date is a Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 19, 2021. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. Method of Payment.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments of the Redemption Price and Change of Control Payment and principal due at Maturity in respect of the Notes to Holders who surrender such Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments; provided that if any Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date is an Interest Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. The Company will pay all amounts due in respect of the Notes in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make such payments (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States with respect to Notes evidenced by Global Securities and any other Notes with any aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 the Holder of which has provided wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date or (ii) by check payable in such money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any certificated Notes.

3. Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar at its office at 601 Travis Street, 16th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

C-6

4. Indenture.

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 19, 2021 (the “Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000. The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, issue additional Notes of the same series as the Notes from time to time without the consent of the Holders. The Notes initially issued and any additional Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single series for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, supplements, redemptions and offers to purchase, provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued for United States federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers from the Notes initially issued. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the Notes, the “Securities”) thereunder.

5. Optional Redemption.

The Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to February 15, 2051 (six months prior to the Stated Maturity of the Notes (the “Par Call Date”)), in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

(a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed; and

(b) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the Notes being redeemed that would be due if the Notes matured on the Par Call Date (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points,

in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

The Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples

Except as set forth below, the Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

Upon the first to occur of either (i) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the later of (1) June 20, 2022 and (2) September 18, 2022 if the closing of the acquisition by Royal Building Products (USA) Inc. from Boral Industries Inc. of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of certain subsidiaries of Boral Industries Inc. engaged in Boral Limited’s North American building products businesses in roofing, siding, trim and shutters, decorative stone and windows (the “Acquisition”) has been extended by Royal Building Products (USA) Inc. or Boral Industries Inc. in accordance with the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2021, by and among Boral Building Products Inc., Boral Stone Products LLC, Boral Lifetile Inc., Boral Windows LLC, Boral Industries Inc., Royal Building Products (USA) Inc. and, solely for purposes of Section 10.20 thereof, Boral Limited and, solely for purposes of Section 10.21 thereof, Westlake Chemical Corporation (the “Purchase Agreement”), in either case if the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to such time on such date, or (ii) the date on which the Purchase Agreement is terminated (each, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger”), the Company shall redeem the Notes, in whole, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, such Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”).

Within five Business Days after the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger, the Company will give notice of the Special Mandatory Redemption to each Holder of the Notes, stating, together with other matters prescribed in the Indenture, that a Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger has occurred and that all such Notes of this series shall be redeemed on the Redemption Date set forth in such notice (which will be no earlier than three Business Days and no later than 30 days from the date such notice is given).

Upon the occurrence of the closing of the Acquisition, the foregoing provisions regarding the Special Mandatory Redemption will cease to apply with respect to the Notes.

7. Notice of Redemption.

Other than with respect to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company shall deliver notice of a redemption not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to Holders of Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is sent, the Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

C-8

8. Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to optionally redeem the Notes, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion ($1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided that the principal amount of a Note remaining outstanding after a repurchase in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to deliver a notice to each Holder of the Notes not redeemed, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the Change of Control Payment Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, other than as may be required by applicable law, describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the Notes.

9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Notes initially are issued in permanent global form. Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, Notes may also be issued in the form of certificated Notes in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental changes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption in whole or in part (except the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in part) or any Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days prior to the delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or repurchase and ending on the close of business on the day of delivery such notice.

10. Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

11. Amendment; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplement (acting as one class), and any existing or past Default or Event of Default under, or compliance

C-9

with any provision of, the Indenture may be waived (other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) on or interest on the Securities) by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series or of all series (acting as one class) in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities in certain respects set forth in the Indenture.

Without the consent of each Holder affected, the Company may not (i) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Security; (iii) reduce the principal of or premium on, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Security; (iv) reduce the premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed; (v) change any obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; (vi) change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or interest with respect thereto is payable; (vii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on any Security, except as provided in the Indenture; (viii) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of Securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or make any change in the provision for modification; or (ix) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Securities.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities under the Indenture, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

12. Defaults and Remedies.

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of interest that continues for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in any payment of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure by the Company to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the Notes, which shall not have been remedied within the specified time period after written notice; and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

C-10

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

13. Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

14. Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

15. No Recourse Against Others.

A director, officer, member, manager, employee, stockholder, partner or other owner of the Company or the Trustee, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, or for any obligations of the Company or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of Notes.

16. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

17. Abbreviations.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

D-10

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

13. Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

14. Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

15. No Recourse Against Others.

A director, officer, member, manager, employee, stockholder, partner or other owner of the Company or the Trustee, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, or for any obligations of the Company or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of Notes.

16. CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders.
