Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 30, 2024, Tampa Electric Company (the “Company”) completed its previously reported offering of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.90% Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold at 99.932% of par. The offering resulted in net proceeds to the Company (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses) of approximately $495.3 million. In connection with completing the issuance and sale of the Notes, the Company entered into an eighteenth supplemental indenture (the “Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture”) with The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), supplementing the Indenture dated July 1, 1998 (the “Base Indenture” and together with the Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture, and as otherwise amended and supplemented to date, the “Indenture”).

The Notes mature on March 1, 2029, and bear interest at a rate of 4.90% per annum. The Company will pay interest on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2024. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

At any time prior to February 1, 2029, the Company may redeem all or any part of the Notes at its option at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis at the applicable treasury rate (as defined in the Indenture), plus 15 basis points (0.15%), less interest accrued to the date of redemption; in each case, the redemption price would include accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. At any time on or after February 1, 2029, the Company may at its option redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

The Indenture provides that each of the following is an event of default (“Event of Default”): (i) the Company fails to pay any interest on the Notes when due, and such failure has continued for 30 days; (ii) the Company fails to pay the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due; (iii) the Company fails to perform any other covenant in the Indenture (other than a covenant in the Indenture solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities other than the Notes), and such failure has continued for 90 days after the Company receives written notice as provided in the Indenture; or (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company as described in the Indenture.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all the Notes to be immediately due and payable. Under some circumstances, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind and annul that declaration and its consequences.

The Notes are unsecured and rank equally with the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

The preceding description of the Indenture and the Notes is qualified in its entirety by the Base Indenture as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 3, 1998, and incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.3 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267890), as amended and supplemented to date, and the Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes filed herewith as Exhibits 4.9 and 4.10, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Affiliates of the Trustee in the past have provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, underwriting, lending, commercial banking and other advisory services to the Company and its affiliates.

 

Item 2.03.

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information provided in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

ARTICLE ONE

Definitions and Other Provisions of General Application

Section 1.01. Definitions

All capitalized terms that are used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Original Indenture.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the date of redemption) of the Notes to be redeemed calculated as if the maturity date of the Notes were Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”) that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of the Notes.

Comparable Treasury Price” means with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if an Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

Depositary” means The Depository Trust Company or its successor.

Electronic Means” means the following communications methods: e-mail, facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system specified by the Trustee as available for use in connection with its services under the Indenture.

Global Note” means a Note in the form of a Global Security.

Par Call Date” means February 1, 2029.

Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision of any government.

Record Date” means the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, provided, however, as long as the Notes are registered in the name of the Depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, the Record Date shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. The Record Date shall constitute the Regular Record Date for purposes of the Original Indenture.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) a primary treasury dealer selected by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, MUFG Securities Americas, Inc., or each of their respective affiliates and successors; provided that if any such Reference Treasury Dealer ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) up to two Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date with respect to the Notes, the average, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to an Independent Investment Banker at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company as follows:

(i) The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity

 

3


on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

(ii) If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to the Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date, but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date, or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

(c) Computation of Interest. The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of twelve 30-day months. Except for the effect of any adjustment in the Interest Payment Date as provided in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full six-month period for which interest is computed, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a 180-day period. If any Interest Payment Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the payment required to be made on such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Subject to (a) above, any Note may be issued in such other form as may be provided by, or not inconsistent with, the terms of the Original Indenture and this Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture.

Section 2.07. Authentication and Delivery

As provided in and pursuant to Section 303 of the Original Indenture, each time that the Company delivers Notes to the Trustee or Authenticating Agent for authentication after the initial issuance of Notes under this Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall deliver a Supplemental Company Order in the form of Exhibit B to this Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee or such Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.

Section 2.08. Redemption; No Sinking Fund

(a) Prior to the Par Call Date, the Notes are subject to redemption, in whole or in part, at any time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i) (A) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points (0.15%), less (B) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. From and after the Par Call Date, the Notes are subject to redemption in whole or in part at the option of the Company at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

(b) The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to calculate the redemption price.

(c) Notice of any redemption will be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.

 

6


(d) In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made, in the case of certificated Notes, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee and the Company shall deem appropriate and fair, and, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note will state the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed. In the case of certificated Notes, a new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Note will be issued in the name of the holder of such Note upon surrender of the original Note. In the case of Global Notes, the applicable Global Note shall be reduced by the Trustee in an amount equal to the principal amount of such Note being redeemed in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

(e) Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

(f) The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund or analogous provision.

In order to comply with applicable tax laws, rules and regulations (inclusive of directives, guidelines and interpretations promulgated by competent authorities) in effect from time to time (“Applicable Law”), if a foreign financial institution, issuer, trustee, paying agent, holder or other institution (the “Foreign Institution”) has agreed to be a party or subject to the Indenture, (i) the Foreign Institution agrees to provide (and, to the extent such information is in the possession of the Company, the Company agrees to provide) to The Bank of New York Mellon sufficient information about itself so The Bank of New York Mellon can determine whether it has tax related obligations under Applicable Law, and (ii) the Company and the Foreign Institution agree that The Bank of New York Mellon shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments under the Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law. The terms of this section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 3.09. Reports

Delivery of the reports and documents described in Section 704 of the Original Indenture to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants under the Indenture.

Section 3.10. Electronic Means

The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given pursuant to the Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Company shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Company whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Company understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions, and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Company shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Company and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of the applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by

the Company. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction, except for any such losses, costs or expenses due to the Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Company; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.

Section 3.11. OFAC Certification and Covenants

(a) The Company covenants and represents that neither they nor any of their affiliates, subsidiaries, directors or officers are the target or subject of any sanctions enforced by the US Government, (including, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Department of the Treasury) or other relevant sanctions authority to which the Company is subject (collectively “Sanctions”).

(b) The Company covenants and represents that neither they nor any of their affiliates, subsidiaries, directors or officers will use any payments made pursuant to this Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture: (i) to fund or facilitate any activities of or business with any person who, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject or target of Sanctions, (ii) to fund or facilitate any activities of or business with any country or territory that is the target or subject of Sanctions, or (iii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any person.

(REVERSE OF NOTE)

TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY

4.90% Notes Due 2029

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of July 1, 1998, as amended, and as supplemented by the Eighteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 30, 2024 (as such has been or shall be amended or supplemented, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the securities of the series designated on the face hereof.

DEFINITIONS

The following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings unless the context or use clearly indicates another or different meaning or intent:

Business Day” means any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law or regulations to close in the City of New York, or (ii) a day on which the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee is closed for business.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the date of redemption) of the Notes to be redeemed (the “Remaining Life”) that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of the Notes.

Comparable Treasury Price” means with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if an Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

Depositary” shall mean The Depository Trust Company or any successor depositary.

Independent Investment Banker” means Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, MUFG Securities Americas, Inc., or any of their respective successors, as designated by the Company, or if all of those firms are unwilling or unable to serve as such, an independent investment and banking institution of national standing selected by the Company.

Interest Payment Date” means each of the dates on which interest on this Note is payable, which dates are set forth on the face of this Note.

 

A-5


Par Call Date” means the date set forth on the face of this Note identified as the Par Call Date.

Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision of any government.

Record Date” means the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, provided, however, as long as the Notes are registered in the name of the Depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, the Record Date shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. The Record Date shall constitute the Regular Record Date for purposes of the Original Indenture.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) a primary treasury dealer selected by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, , Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, MUFG Securities Americas, Inc., or each of their respective affiliates and successors; provided that if any such Reference Treasury Dealer ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) up to two Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to an Independent Investment Banker at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company as follows:

(i) The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

 

A-6


(ii) If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

INTEREST RATE

This Note will bear interest at the rate per annum (computed based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) identified on the face of this Note. Except for the effect of any adjustment in the Interest Payment Date as provided in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full six-month period for which interest is computed, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a 180-day period. If any Interest Payment Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the payment required to be made on such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

A-7


OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

Prior to the Par Call Date, the Notes are subject to redemption, in whole or in part, at any time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points (0.15%), less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. The Note shall be reduced by the Trustee in an amount equal to the principal amount of such Note being redeemed in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund or analogous provision.

TRANSFER OR EXCHANGE

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registerable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

To the extent permitted by law, any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Depositary” shall mean The Depository Trust Company or any successor depositary.

Independent Investment Banker” means Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, MUFG Securities Americas, Inc., or any of their respective successors, as designated by the Company, or if all of those firms are unwilling or unable to serve as such, an independent investment and banking institution of national standing selected by the Company.

Interest Payment Date” means each of the dates on which interest on this Note is payable, which dates are set forth on the face of this Note.

 

5


Par Call Date” means the date set forth on the face of this Note identified as the Par Call Date.

Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision of any government.

Record Date” means the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date, provided, however, as long as the Notes are registered in the name of the Depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, the Record Date shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. The Record Date shall constitute the Regular Record Date for purposes of the Original Indenture.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) a primary treasury dealer selected by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, , Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, MUFG Securities Americas, Inc., or each of their respective affiliates and successors; provided that if any such Reference Treasury Dealer ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) up to two Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to an Independent Investment Banker at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company as follows:

(i) The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

 

6


(ii) If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

INTEREST RATE

This Note will bear interest at the rate per annum (computed based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) identified on the face of this Note. Except for the effect of any adjustment in the Interest Payment Date as provided in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full six-month period for which interest is computed, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a 180-day period. If any Interest Payment Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the payment required to be made on such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

Prior to the Par Call Date, the Notes are subject to redemption, in whole or in part, at any time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points (0.15%), less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. The Note shall be reduced by the Trustee in an amount equal to the principal amount of such Note being redeemed in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund or analogous provision.
