Common use of Repayment Upon Death Clause in Contracts

Repayment Upon Death. If so specified in any General Term Note, the Holder of such General Term Note will have the option (the "Survivor's Option") to elect repayment of such General Term Note prior to its Stated Maturity in the event of the death of the beneficial owner of such General Term Note. Pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option, if applicable, the Company will repay any General Term Note (or portion thereof) properly tendered for repayment by or on behalf of the person (the "Representative") that has authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial owner of such General Term Note under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the personal representative, executor, surviving joint tenant or surviving tenant by the entirety of such deceased beneficial owner) at a price equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of the beneficial interest of the deceased owner of such General Term Note plus accrued interest to the date of such payment, subject to the following limitations. The Company may, in its sole discretion, limit the aggregate principal amount of General Term Notes as to which exercises of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in any calendar year (the "Annual Put Limitation") to one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of the General Term Notes as of the end of the most recent fiscal year, but not less than $500,000 in any such calendar year, or such greater amount as the Company in its sole discretion may determine for any calendar year, and may limit to $100,000, or such greater amount as the Company in its sole discretion may determine for any calendar year, the aggregate principal amount of General Term Notes (or portions thereof) as to which exercise of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in such calendar year with respect to any individual deceased owner of beneficial interests in such General Term Notes (the "Individual Put Limitation"). Moreover, the Company will not make principal repayments pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option in amounts that are less that $1,000, and, in the event that the limitations described in the preceding sentence would result in the partial repayment of any General Term Note, the principal amount of such General Term Note remaining outstanding after repayment must be at least $1,000 (the minimum authorized denomination of the General Term Notes). Any General Term Note (or portion thereof) tendered pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option may be withdrawn by a written request of its Holder received by the Trustee prior to its repayment. Each General Term Note (or portion thereof) that is tendered pursuant to a valid exercise of the Survivor's Option will be accepted promptly in the order all such General Term Notes are tendered, except for any General Term Note (or portion thereof) the acceptance of which would contravene (i) the Annual Put Limitation, if applied, or (ii) the Individual Put Limitation, if applied, with respect to the relevant individual deceased owner of beneficial interests therein. If, as of the end of any calendar year, the aggregate principal amount of General Term Notes (or portions thereof) that have been accepted pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option for such year has not exceeded the Annual Put Limitation, if applied, for such year, any exercise(s) of the Survivor's Option with respect to General Term Notes (or portions thereof) not accepted during such calendar year because such acceptance would have contravened the Individual Put Limitation, if applied, with respect to an individual deceased owner of beneficial interests therein will be accepted in the order all such General Term Notes (or portions thereof) were tendered, to the extent that any such exercise would not exceed the Annual Put Limitation, if applied, for such calendar year. Any General Term Note (or portion thereof) accepted for repayment pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option will be repaid no later than the first Interest Payment Date that occurs 20 or more calendar days after the date of such acceptance. Each General Term Note (or any portion thereof) tendered for repayment that is not accepted in any calendar year because of the application of the Annual Put Limitation will be deemed to be tendered in the following calendar year in the order in which all such General Term Notes (or portions thereof) were originally tendered, unless any such General Term Note (or portion thereof) is withdrawn by the Representative for the deceased owner prior to its repayment. In the event that a General Term Note (or any portion thereof) tendered for repayment pursuant to valid exercise of the Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Trustee will deliver a notice by first-class mail to the registered Holder thereof at its last known address as indicated in the Security Register that states the reasons such General Term Note (or portion thereof) has not been accepted for repayment. Subject to the foregoing, in order for a Survivor's Option to be validly exercised with respect to any General Term Note (or portion thereof), the Trustee must receive from the Representative of the individual deceased owner of beneficial interests therein (i) a written request for payment signed by the Representative, and such signature must be guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, (ii) if any such General Term Note is not represented by a Global Note (as described in Article VII below), tender of the General Term Note (or portion thereof) to be repaid, (iii) appropriate evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee that (A) the Representative has authority to act on behalf of the individual deceased beneficial owner, (B) the death of such beneficial owner has occurred and (C) the deceased individual was the owner of a beneficial interest in such General Term Note at the time of death, (iv) if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement, and (v) if the beneficial interest in such General Term Note is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial owner, a certificate satisfactory to the Trustee from such nominee attesting to the deceased's ownership of a beneficial interest in such General Term Note. All questions as to the eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determinations will be final and binding on all parties. If a General Term Note is represented by a Global Note (as described in Article VII below), the Depositary or its nominee will be the Holder of such General Term Note and therefore will be the only entity that can exercise the Survivor's Option for such General Term Note. To obtain repayment pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option with respect to such General Term Note, the Representative must provide to the broker or other entity through which the beneficial interest in such General Term Note is held by the deceased owner (i) the documents described in clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding paragraph and (ii) instructions to such broker or other entity to notify the Depositary of such Representative's desire to obtain repayment pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option. Such broker or other entity shall provide to the Trustee (i) the documents received from the Representative referred to in clause (i) of the preceding sentence and (ii) a certificate satisfactory to the Trustee from such broker or other entity stating that it represents the deceased beneficial owner. Such broker or other entity will be responsible for disbursing any payments it receives pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option to the appropriate Representative.
