obligations of the Company and will mature on April15, 2027. From
and including the date of issuance to, but excluding April15,
2022, the Notes will bear interest at an initial rate of
5.625%per annum. From and including April15, 2022 to, but
excluding the maturity date or earlier redemption, the Notes will
bear interest at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR as
calculated on each applicable date of determination plus 3.575%;
provided, however, that in the event three-month LIBOR is less
than zero, then three-month LIBOR shall be deemed to be zero.

The Company may, beginning with the interest payment date of
April15, 2022, and on any interest payment date thereafter,
redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price
equal to 50% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed
plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the date of
redemption. The Company may also redeem the Notes at any time,
including prior to April15, 2022, at the Companys option, in
whole but not in part, if: (i)a change or prospective change in
law occurs that could prevent the Company from deducting interest
payable on the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ii)a
subsequent event occurs that could preclude the Notes from being
recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; or
(iii)the Company is required to register as an investment company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; in each
case, at a redemption price equal to 50% of the principal amount
of the Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest to but
excluding the redemption date.

The foregoing summaries of the Base Indenture, the Supplemental
Indenture and the Notes are not complete, and are each qualified
in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Base
Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture and the form of Note, which
are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, respectively, to this
