(Finance Corp. and together with the Company, the Issuers) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the Trustee), as trustee, entered into a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated October 21, 2014 (the Second Supplemental Indenture). The Second Supplemental Indenture amends the Indenture, dated March 28, 2013 (as previously amended, the Indenture), with respect to the Issuers outstanding 6.25% Senior Notes due 2020 (the Notes). The amendments (the Amendments) (a) replace the reporting covenant contained in Section 4.03 of the Indenture, which requires that the Company file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, with a requirement that the Company provide holders of the Notes with a specified set of information that is more typical of debt securities issued in a Rule 144A-for-life transaction, and (b) amend Section 5.01(a) of the Indenture to remove the prohibition on the consolidation or merger of Finance Corp. with or into an entity that is not a corporation.
On October 22, 2014, following effectiveness of the Second Supplemental Indenture, Finance Corp. was merged with and into the Company (the Merger). In connection with the Merger, the Company entered into a Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 22, 2014 (the Third Supplemental Indenture), with the Trustee. Pursuant to the Third Supplemental Indenture, the Company, as the successor of Finance Corp., assumed the obligations of Finance Corp. under the Indenture and the Notes.
The foregoing descriptions of the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
