B. The Company desires to issue and sell, and the Purchasers desire to purchase, three additional series of Notes (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and in accordance with the terms set forth below;

Now, Therefore, the Company and the Purchasers agree as follows:

1. Authorization of the New Notes. The Company has authorized the issue and sale of (a) $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes to be designated as its 2.93% Senior Notes, Series 2015-A, due April 16, 2025 (the “Series 2015-A Notes,” such term to include any such Notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of the Note Purchase Agreement) and (b) $125,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes to be designated as its 3.18% Senior Notes, Series 2015-B, due June 17, 2030 (the “Series 2015-B Notes,” such term to include any such Notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of the Note Purchase Agreement; together with the Series 2015-A Notes, the “Notes”). The Notes shall be substantially in the forms set out in Exhibit 1(a) and Exhibit 1(b), respectively, with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by you and the Company.

2. Sale and Purchase of the Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this First Supplement and the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each of the Purchasers, and the Purchasers will purchase from the Company, at the related Closing provided for in Section 3, Series 2015-A Notes and/or Series 2015-B Notes in the principal amount specified opposite their respective names in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The obligations of the Purchasers hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance by any other Purchaser hereunder.

3. Closing. The sale and purchase of the (a) Series 2015-A Notes to be purchased by the Purchasers shall occur at a closing (the “First Closing”) on April 16, 2015 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to April 20, 2015 as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers of the Series 2015-A Notes and (b) Series 2015-B Notes to be purchased by the Purchasers shall occur at a closing (the

“Second Closing”) on June 25, 2015 or on such other Business Day thereafter on or prior to June 29, 2015 as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers of the Series 2015-B Notes at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ at 9:00 a.m., Chicago time. The First Closing and Second Closing are each referred to herein as a “Closing” and collectively, as the “Closings”. At each Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased by it in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of Series 2015-A Notes or Series 2015-B Notes in denominations of at least $500,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of such Closing and registered in its name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 1-502-5005-4130 at U.S. Bank, SWIFT Code: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ABA Routing Number: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the Account Name of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Company, Inc. If at a Closing, the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to a Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement, as modified or expanded by Section 4 hereof, shall not have been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights it may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

4. Conditions to Closing. Each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase and pay for the Notes to be sold to it at each Closing is subject to the fulfillment to its satisfaction, prior to or at the Closing, of the conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement, as hereafter modified.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Purchasers that each of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement is true and correct as of the date of each Closing (i) except that all references to “Purchaser” and “you” therein shall be deemed to refer to the Purchasers hereunder, all references to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to the Note Purchase Agreement as supplemented by this First Supplement, all references to “Notes” therein shall be deemed to include the Series 2015-A Notes and the Series 2015-B Notes, and (ii) except for changes to such representations and warranties or the Schedules referred to therein, which changes are set forth in the attached Schedule 5.

6. Representations of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser confirms to the Company that the representations set forth in Section 6 of the Note Purchase Agreement are true and correct as to such Purchaser.

7. (a) Mandatory Prepayment of the Series 2015-A Notes. The Series 2015-A Notes are not subject to mandatory prepayment by the Company.

(b) Optional Prepayments. The Series 2015-A Notes are subject to prepayment at the option of the Company in the manner and with the effect set forth in Section 8.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement.

(c) Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series 2015-A Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2 of the Note Agreement, the principal amount of the Series 2015-A Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated in the manner and with the effect set forth in Section 8.3 of the Note Purchase Agreement.

(d) Make-Whole Amount for Series 2015-A Notes. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means with respect to any Series 2015-A Note an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series 2015-A Note, minus the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings with respect to the Called Principal of such Series 2015-A Note:

“Called Principal” means, the principal of any Series 2015-A Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2015-A Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Note is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, .50% over the yield to maturity implied by the yield(s) reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury ▇▇▇▇ quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, .50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of such Note, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

8. (a) Mandatory Prepayment of the Series 2015-B Notes. The Series 2015-B Notes are not subject to mandatory prepayment by the Company.

(b) Optional Prepayments. The Series 2015-B Notes are subject to prepayment at the option of the Company in the manner and with the effect set forth in Section 8.2 of the Note Purchase Agreement.

(c) Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Series 2015-B Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2 of the

Note Agreement, the principal amount of the Series 2015-B Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated in the manner and with the effect set forth in Section 8.3 of the Note Purchase Agreement.

(d) Make-Whole Amount for Series 2015-B Notes. The term “Make-Whole Amount” means with respect to any Series 2015-B Note an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Series 2015-B Note, minus the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings with respect to the Called Principal of such Series 2015-B Note:

“Called Principal” means, the principal of any Series 2015-B Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Series 2015-B Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Note is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

9. Applicability of Note Purchase Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (and expressly permitted by the Note Purchase Agreement), all of the provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and shall apply to the Series 2015-A Notes and Series 2015-B Notes as if expressly set forth in this First Supplement.

In Witness Whereof, the Company and the Purchasers have caused this First Supplement to be executed and delivered as of the date set forth above.
