(b) From and including June 27, 2016 until but excluding June 30, 2021, the rate at which the Notes shall bear interest shall be 5.875% per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and payable semi-annually in arrears; from and including June 30, 2021, until but excluding the Maturity Date, the interest rate shall be a floating rate, as determined by the Calculation Agent, equal to LIBOR determined on the determination date of the applicable Interest Period plus 471.5 basis points, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, and payable quarterly in arrears.

(d) In the event that the Maturity Date for any Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the related payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and no additional interest will accumulate on the amount payable for the period from and after the Maturity Date).

Senior Debt shall continue to be Senior Debt and entitled to the benefits of these subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification, or waiver of any term of the Senior Debt or extension or renewal of the Senior Debt.
6
In the event of
(1) any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, or other similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property,
(2) any proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution, or other winding up of the Company, voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings,
(3) any assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors, or
(4) any other marshaling of the assets of the Company,
all Senior Debt (including any interest on such Senior Debt accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities, or other property, shall be made to any holder of any of the Notes on account of such Notes. Any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities, or other property (other than securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect of such Senior Debt under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), which would otherwise (but for these subordination provisions) be payable or deliverable in respect of the Notes shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of Senior Debt in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders until all Senior Debt (including any interest on such Senior Debt accruing after the commencement of any such proceedings) shall have been paid in full. In the event of any such proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to Senior Debt, the holders of the Notes, together with the holders of any obligations of the Company ranking on a parity with the Notes, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes and such other obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property, or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital stock or any obligations of the Company ranking junior to the Notes and such other obligations. The rights of holders of Senior Debt under this Section do not extend to any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, to the extent applied to the Trustee’s rights to compensation, reimbursement of expenses or indemnification.
In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities, or other property (other than securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect of such Senior Debt under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), shall be received by the Trustee or any holder of the Notes in contravention of any of the terms of this Section 206, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior Debt at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for applications to the payment of all Senior
7
Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Debt in full. In the event of the failure of the Trustee or any holder of the Notes to endorse or assign any such payment, distribution, or security, each holder of Senior Debt is irrevocably authorized to endorse or assign the same.
No present or future holder of any Senior Debt shall be prejudiced in the right to enforce subordination of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company. Nothing contained in this Section 206 shall impair, as between the Company and the holders of Notes, the obligation of the Company to pay to the holders of the Notes the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Notes or prevent the Trustee or the holders of the Notes from exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law or under this Indenture upon a default or Event of Default, all subject to the rights of the holders of the Senior Debt to receive cash, securities, or other property otherwise payable or deliverable to the holders of the Notes.
Senior Debt shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holders thereof shall have received cash, securities, or other property equal to the amount of such Senior Debt then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the rights of the holders of Notes of each series shall be subrogated to all rights of any holders of Senior Debt to receive any further payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt until the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes shall have been paid in full, and such payments or distributions received by such holders of Notes, by reason of such subrogation, of cash, securities, or other property which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the holders of Senior Debt shall, as between the Company and its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, on the one hand, and such holders of Notes, on the other hand, be deemed to be a payment by the Company on account of Senior Debt, and not on account of the Notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Section 206, at any time after the 123rd day following the date of deposit of money and U.S. Government Obligations pursuant to Article Four of the Base Indenture (provided all conditions set out in the applicable Article shall have been satisfied), the funds (including U.S. Government Obligations) so deposited and any interest thereon will not be subject to any rights of holders of Senior Debt including, without limitation, those arising under this Section 206; provided that no event described in clause (5), (6) or (7) of Section 501 of the Base Indenture has occurred during such 123-day period.
The provisions of this Section 206 shall not impair any rights, interests, remedies, or powers of any secured creditor of the Company in respect of any security interest the creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture.
(b) In the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Senior Debt beyond any applicable grace period with respect to such Senior Debt, or in the event that any event of default with respect to any Senior Debt shall have occurred and be continuing permitting the holders of such Senior Debt (or the trustee on behalf of the holders of such Senior Debt) to declare such Senior Debt due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist and any such declaration and its consequences shall have been rescinded or annulled, or in the event any
8
judicial proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such default in payment or event of default, then no payment (including any payment which may be payable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes) shall be made by the Company on account of the principal of or any premium or interest on the Notes or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Notes.
Subject to Section 206(d), in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the holders of the Notes prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section 206(b), and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known in a writing delivered to a responsible officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office by a holder of Senior Debt or the Company or, as the case may be, such holder of Notes, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered to the Company.
The provisions of this Section 206(b) shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 206(a) would be applicable.
(c) Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 206, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon an order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization or arrangement proceedings are pending or upon a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the holders of the Notes, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount of or payable on and the amount or amounts paid or distributed on such Senior Debt or other indebtedness, and all other facts pertinent to such Senior Debt or other indebtedness or to this Section 206. In the absence of any such bankruptcy trustee, receiver, assignee, or other Person, the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a written notice by a Person representing itself, himself or herself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee or representative on behalf of such holder) as evidence that such Person is a holder of such Senior Debt (or is such a trustee or representative), of the amount of or payable on and the amount or amounts paid or distributed on such Senior Debt or other indebtedness, and of all other facts pertinent to such Senior Debt or other indebtedness. In the event that the Trustee determines, in good faith, that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to participate in any payments or distributions pursuant to this Section 206, the Trustee may request such person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt held by such Person, as to the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, and as to other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Section 206, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may withhold any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive payment. The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall pay over or deliver to the holders of the Notes or the Company or any other Person, cash, securities, or other property to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Section 206 or otherwise. With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee.
9
(d) Nothing contained in this Section 206 (except in Section 206(e)) or elsewhere in this Indenture, or in the Notes, shall prevent (i) the Company at any time, except during the pendency of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, or reorganization proceedings referred to in Section 206(a) or under the conditions specified in Section 206(b), from making payments of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Notes or (ii) the application by the Trustee or any Paying Agent of any moneys deposited with it under this Indenture to payments of the principal of or interest on the Notes, if, at the time of such deposit, a responsible officer of the Trustee or such Paying Agent, as the case may be, had not received at the Corporate Trust Office the Officers’ Certificate or written notice provided for in Section 206(e) of any event prohibiting the making of such deposit, or if, at the time of such deposit (whether or not in trust) by the Company with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company) such payment would not have been prohibited by the provisions of this Section 206, and the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary received by it on or after such date.
(e) Anything in this Section 206 or elsewhere contained in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee, and shall be entitled conclusively to assume that no such facts exist and that no event specified in Section 206(a) or Section 206(b) has happened, unless and until a responsible officer of the Trustee shall have received at the Corporate Trust Office (i) an Officers’ Certificate to that effect or (ii) notice in writing to that effect signed by or on behalf of the holder or holders, or their representatives, of Senior Debt who shall have been certified by the Company or otherwise established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee to be such holder or holders or representatives or from any trustee under any indenture pursuant to which such Senior Debt shall be outstanding; and before the receipt of any such Officers’ Certificate or written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the Officers’ Certificate or the written notice provided for in this Section 206(e) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security) then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have all power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money were received and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it during or after such three (3) Business Day period.
The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Paying Agent of any facts which would prohibit the payment of money or assets to or by the Trustee or any Paying Agent.
(f) Each holder of Notes by such holder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on such holder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as between such holder and holders of Senior Debt as provided in this Section 206 and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.
10
(g) The Trustee shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Section 206 with respect to any Senior Debt which may at the time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Section 206 shall deprive the Trustee of any rights as such holder.
(h) In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting under this Indenture, the term “Trustee” as used in this Section 206 shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if the Paying Agent were named in this Section 206 in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Sections 206(e) and 206(g) shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if the Company or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.
(i) No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as provided in this Indenture shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions, and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of Senior Debt may, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, change the manner, place, or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, any such Senior Debt, or amend or supplement any instrument pursuant to which any such Senior Debt is issued or by which it may be secured, or release any security, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Debt including, without limitation, the waiver of default, all without notice to or assent from the holders of the Notes or the Trustee and without affecting the obligations of the Company, the Trustee, or the holders of the Notes under this Section 206.
(j) Nothing in this Section 206 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 506 or 607 of the Base Indenture.
(k) Anything in Article Nine of the Base Indenture or elsewhere contained in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, no modification or amendment and no supplemental indenture shall modify the subordination provisions of this Section 206 in a manner that would adversely affect the holders of Senior Debt.

The Maturity of the Notes shall not otherwise be accelerated as a result of an Event of Default.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of June 27, 2016, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture between the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) dated as June 27, 2016, 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 series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $35,000,000.
All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Base Indenture or the Supplemental Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Base Indenture or the Supplemental Indenture.
The Notes of this series shall be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company on June 30, 2021, or on any scheduled Interest Payment Date thereafter. In addition, the Company may redeem the Notes before the Maturity Date, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon the occurrence of a Tier 2 Capital Event or a Tax Event, or if the Company is required to register as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.). Any such redemption by the Company prior to the Maturity Date would require the prior approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, if then required.
The Notes of this series are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.
If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal and interest owed on the Notes of this series shall only become due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 209 of the Supplemental Indenture.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the holders of the Notes at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of each series (each series voting as a class) affected thereby and at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes of a series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the holders of all Notes of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. 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 herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Company and the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
