Certificate of Designation

The terms, rights, obligations and preferences of the Preference Shares are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of 5.9000% Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Series A Preference Shares of the Issuer (the “Certificate of Designation”), a copy of which is identified as Exhibit C hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

The Series A Preference Shares rank senior to the Common Shares, and at least equally with each other series of our preference shares that the Issuer may issue (except for any senior stock that may be issued with the requisite consent of the holders of the Series A Preference Shares and all other parity stock), with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up.  The holders of the Preference Shares do not have any preemptive or conversion rights.

The Preference Shares have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share and a fixed cash dividend rate of 5.90% per annum, payable quarterly, in arrears, on a non-cumulative basis when, if and as declared by the Issuer’s Board.  However, if the Issuer has not declared and paid or set aside for payment full quarterly dividends on the Preference Shares for a particular dividend period, subject to certain exceptions, it may not declare or pay dividends on, or redeem, purchase or acquire, its Common Shares or other junior securities in the next succeeding dividend period.



The Preference Shares have no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund or other obligation of the Issuer to redeem or repurchase the Preference Shares. The Preference Shares will not be redeemable prior to the 21st anniversary of their original issue date.

The Preference Shares will not have any voting rights except as expressly required by law or the bye-laws of the Issuer, and except that the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares of the Preference Shares will be required (i) to authorize or increase the authorized amount of, or issue Preference Shares or any class or series of stock ranking senior to, the Preference Shares with respect to the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Issuer (“Senior Security”), or to issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any Preference Shares or any Senior Security, (ii) to authorize or approve certain mergers, amalgamations or consolidations of the Issuer unless the Issuer is the surviving corporation in the transaction and the Preference Shares remains outstanding or, if the Issuer is not the surviving corporation, the Preference Shares is not changed into anything other than a class or series of preference shares with rights and preferences substantially the same as those of the Preference Shares and (iii) for certain amendments to the Issuer’s organizational and governing documents. However, if the Issuer fails to declare and pay, in full, dividends on issued and outstanding Preference Shares, for at least six quarterly dividend periods for the Preference Shares, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the Issuer shall be automatically increased by two and holders of the Preference Shares will the right to elect such two additional members to the Board.  When cumulative dividends payable for all past dividend periods for any Preference Shares have been paid in full, the terms of the Preference Share directors so elected will terminate, and the number of directors will be reduced by two, and such voting right of the holders of Preference Shares will cease.

Shareholder Agreement

In connection with the closing of the Transaction, MassMutual entered into a shareholder agreement (the “Shareholder Agreement”) with the Issuer. As described below, the Shareholder Agreement sets forth various arrangements and restrictions with respect to the governance of the Issuer and certain rights of MassMutual with respect to the Equity Consideration.

Board Nomination and Committee Representation Rights

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Shareholder Agreement, William F. Glavin Jr. was designated by MassMutual to serve as a director of the Issuer.  Effective as of the closing of the Transaction, Mr. Glavin was appointed to fill a vacancy on the Board, with a term of office expiring at the Issuer’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2020.

The Issuer will continue to include MassMutual’s designee in its slate of nominees, and will continue to recommend such nominee, and will otherwise use reasonable best efforts to solicit the vote of the Issuer’s shareholders to elect to the Board the slate of nominees which includes the designee of MassMutual.  MassMutual will have the right to designate a nominee so long as it and its controlled affiliates continue to beneficially own at least (i) 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares or (ii) 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares and $2 billion in aggregate liquidation preference of the Preferred Shares. So long as MassMutual retains the right to designate a nominee to the Board, subject to certain exceptions, the Issuer will not be permitted to increase the total number of directors comprising the Board to more than twelve persons without the prior approval of MassMutual’s designee.

For so long as MassMutual has the right to designate a director nominee, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including any requirements under the Exchange Act, the Internal Revenue Code or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange), effective as of January 1, 2020 MassMutual’s designee shall be entitled to be a member of each standing committee of the Board.  In the event that such applicable laws do not permit MassMutual’s designee to serve on certain committees of the Board, such designee will be entitled to serve as an observer on such committee(s) to the extent permitted by law.

Ownership Limit and Standstill Restrictions

Subject to certain exceptions, for as long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, MassMutual shall not, and shall not permit any of its controlled affiliates to, directly or indirectly, acquire or propose to acquire any Common Shares that would cause MassMutual and its controlled affiliates to beneficially own Common Shares representing more than 22.5% of the total voting power of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.

In addition, for as long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, MassMutual and its controlled affiliates are subject to other customary standstill provisions.

Voting Agreement

The Shareholder Agreement requires that, for so long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, and subject to certain exceptions, it must vote, and must cause its controlled affiliates to vote, all Common Shares beneficially owned by them as recommended by the Board on all matters relating to (i) the election of directors, (ii) matters approved or recommended by the Compensation Committee of the Board, (iii) any change of control transaction that the Board (so long as it includes MassMutual’s designee) has unanimously recommended in favor of or against, as applicable, and (iv) any transaction that arises out of a breach by MassMutual of its standstill restrictions.  MassMutual and its controlled affiliates are, however, permitted to vote all of their Common Shares in their sole discretion with respect to any change of control transaction presented to the holders of Common Shares for their vote and not opposed or supported by the Board (so long as it includes MassMutual’s designee) on a unanimous basis and not arising out of a breach by MassMutual of its standstill restrictions under the Shareholder Agreement.

Additionally, with certain exceptions, as long as MassMutual and its controlled affiliates beneficially own at least 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as of the record date for a vote or action by written consent to be taken by the holders of Common Shares on any matter, MassMutual shall, and shall cause its controlled affiliates to, vote or act by written consent with respect to any such matter as recommended by the Board.


Preemptive Rights

For as long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, if the Issuer proposes to issue additional voting securities or securities convertible or exchangeable for any voting securities, then, subject to certain exceptions, MassMutual has the right to purchase an amount of such securities so that, following the issuance, MassMutual and its controlled affiliates will continue to beneficially own the same percentage of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Issuer as they owned immediately prior to such issuance.

Transfer Restrictions

Subject to certain exceptions specified in the Shareholder Agreement, MassMutual and its controlled affiliates cannot transfer (other than to MassMutual’s controlled affiliates): (i) any of their beneficially owned Common Shares until the earlier of May 24, 2021 and the consummation of a transaction constituting a change of control of the Issuer and (ii) any of their beneficially owned Preference Shares until the earlier of May 24, 2024, the date that the credit rating of the Preferred Shares is downgraded by specified rating agencies to below investment grade (as specified in the Shareholder Agreement) and the consummation of a transaction constituting a change of control of the Issuer.

Following the period specified above and for so long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, MassMutual and its controlled affiliates will continue to be subject to certain restrictions on transfers of Common Shares.

In the event that MassMutual or any of its controlled affiliates intend to transfer any Preferred Shares other than to an affiliate, subject to the restrictions described above, the Issuer has a right of first offer to purchase any or all of the shares proposed to be transferred.

Consent Rights

The Shareholder Agreement provides MassMutual with certain customary minority consent rights, including that as long as MassMutual has the right to designate a nominee to the Board, the Issuer may not, without MassMutual’s prior written approval, among other things: change its capital structure in a manner reasonably likely to result in a two-level (or greater) corporate ratings downgrade; amend its organizational documents in a manner that would adversely affect MassMutual’s rights compared to the Issuer’s shareholders generally; subject to certain exceptions, become party to acquisitions of any person or business involving the issuance of the Issuer’s capital stock constituting more than 10% of the total voting power of the Issuer’s capital stock issued and outstanding immediately after completion of such acquisition; or adopt a shareholder rights plan.

Registration Rights

The Shareholder Agreement provides for customary rights to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to any Common Shares and Preferred Shares beneficially owned by MassMutual, including the Issuer’s agreement to provide demand, underwritten offering and piggy-back registration rights with respect to such Common Shares and Preferred Shares.
