Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 10, 2025, American National Group Inc. (the “Company”) closed its previously announced public offering (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 12,000,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of the Company’s 7.375% Series D Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”). The Depositary Shares were sold in a public offering pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281155). The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full the 5.95% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A of the Company (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and the related depositary shares in accordance with the terms thereof. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock or the related depositary shares.

In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a deposit agreement, dated January 10, 2025 (the “Deposit Agreement”), by and among the Company, Computershare Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., collectively, as depositary (the “Depositary”), Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as registrar and transfer agent, and the holders from time to time of the depositary receipts (the “Depositary Receipts”) issued thereunder, a form of which is included therein (the “Form of Depositary Receipt”).

The Certificate of Amendment became effective upon filing with the Secretary of State.

Under the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock, the ability of the Company to declare or pay dividends on, or purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, shares of its common stock or any shares of the Company that rank junior to, or on parity with, the Series D Preferred Stock will be subject to certain restrictions in the event that the Company does not declare and pay (or set aside) dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock for the last preceding dividend period. The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Certificate of Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

5.            Dividends.

(a)            Rate. Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock will not be mandatory. Holders of Series D Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board), out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, quarterly in arrears on the 15^th day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on April 15, 2025 (each such date, a “Dividend Payment Date”), non-cumulative cash dividends that accrue from the date of original issue at a fixed rate per annum of 7.375% on the stated amount of $25,000 per share.

If the Corporation issues additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock after the original issue date, dividends on such shares will accrue from the original issue date if such shares are issued prior to the first Dividend Payment Date. Dividends on Series D Preferred Stock issued after the first Dividend Payment Date will accrue from either the date on which such shares are issued (if such shares are issued on a Dividend Payment Date) or the Dividend Payment Date preceding the date such shares are issued (if such shares are not issued on a Dividend Payment Date).

Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock shall not be cumulative. Accordingly, if the Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) does not declare a dividend on the Series D Preferred Stock payable in respect of any Dividend Period before the related Dividend Payment Date, (i) such dividend will not accrue, (ii) the Corporation will have no obligation to pay a dividend for that Dividend Period on the Dividend Payment Date or at any future time, whether or not dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock are declared for any future Dividend Period and (iii) no interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, will be payable in respect of any dividend not so declared.

When payable, dividends will be payable to holders of record of the Series D Preferred Stock as they appear on the books of the Corporation on the applicable record date, which shall be the 15th calendar day before such Dividend Payment Date or such other record date fixed by the Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) that is not more than 60 nor less than 10 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date (each, a “Dividend Record Date”). Any such day that is a Dividend Record Date shall be a Dividend Record Date whether or not such day is a Business Day.

Each dividend period (a “Dividend Period”) shall (i) commence on and include a Dividend Payment Date and (ii) end on, but exclude, the next Dividend Payment Date (other than the initial Dividend Period, which shall commence on, and include, the original issue date of the Series D Preferred Stock and end on, but exclude, the April 15, 2025 Dividend Payment Date (provided that for any share of Series D Preferred Stock issued after the original issue date of the Series D Preferred Stock, the initial Dividend Period for such shares may commence on and include the original issue date of the Series D Preferred Stock if such shares are issued prior to the first Dividend Payment Date or otherwise will commence on and include the date on which such shares are issued (if such shares are issued on a Dividend Payment Date) or the Dividend Payment Date preceding the date they are issued (if such shares are not issued on a Dividend Payment Date))).

Dividends payable on the Series D Preferred Stock shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If any Dividend Payment Date is a day that is not a Business Day, then the dividend with respect to that Dividend Payment Date will instead be paid on the immediately succeeding Business Day, without interest or other payment in respect of such delayed payment.

Holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in cash, securities or other property, other than dividends (if any) declared and payable on the Series D Preferred Stock as specified in this Section 5 (subject to the other provisions of this Certificate of Designations).

(b)            Priority Dividends. So long as any Series D Preferred Stock remains outstanding for any Dividend Period, unless the full dividends for the latest completed Dividend Period on all outstanding Series D Preferred Stock have been declared and paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been set aside), during a Dividend Period:

(i)            no dividend shall be paid or declared on the Common Stock or any other shares of Junior Stock or Parity Stock (except, in the case of Parity Stock, on a pro rata basis with the Series D Preferred Stock as described below), other than:

any dividend paid on Junior Stock or Parity Stock in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or is other Junior Stock or (solely in the case of Parity Stock) other Parity Stock; or

any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under such plan, or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under such plan; and

(ii)            no Common Stock or other Junior Stock or Parity Stock (except, in the case of Parity Stock, on a pro rata basis with the Series D Preferred Stock as described below) shall be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the Corporation, directly or indirectly, other than:

as a result of a reclassification of Junior Stock for or into other Junior Stock or a reclassification of Parity Stock for or into other Parity Stock, as applicable,

the exchange, redemption or conversion of one share of Junior Stock for or into another share of Junior Stock or the exchange, redemption or conversion of one share of Parity Stock for or into another share of Parity Stock, as applicable,

purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Junior Stock or Parity Stock in connection with (x) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, (y) a dividend reinvestment or shareholder stock purchase plan, or (z) the satisfaction of the Corporation’s obligations pursuant to any contract relating to the foregoing clauses (x) or (y) outstanding at the beginning of the applicable Dividend Period requiring such purchase, redemption or other acquisition,

the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Junior Stock or Parity Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such securities or the security being converted or exchanged,

through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of Junior Stock or Parity Stock, as applicable, or

in the case of Parity Stock, pro rata purchases, offers or other acquisitions for consideration by the Corporation to purchase all, or a pro rata portion of, the Series D Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock.

When dividends are not paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for payment thereof set aside) in full on any Dividend Payment Date (or, in the case of Parity Stock having dividend payment dates different from the Dividend Payment Dates, on a dividend payment date falling within a Dividend Period) on the Series D Preferred Stock and any shares of Parity Stock, all dividends declared on the Series D Preferred Stock and all such Parity Stock and payable on such Dividend Payment Date (or, in the case of Parity Stock having dividend payment dates different from the Dividend Payment Dates, on a dividend payment date falling within the Dividend Period related to such Dividend Payment Date) shall be declared pro rata so that the respective amounts of such dividends shall bear the same ratio to each other as all accrued but unpaid dividends per share on the Series D Preferred Stock and all Parity Stock payable on such Dividend Payment Date (or, in the case of Parity Stock having dividend payment dates different from the Dividend Payment Dates, on a dividend payment date falling within the Dividend Period related to such Dividend Payment Date) bear to each other. As used in this paragraph, payment of dividends “in full” means, as to any Parity Stock that bears dividends on a cumulative basis, the amount of dividends that would need to be declared and paid to bring such Parity Stock current in dividends, including undeclared dividends for past dividend periods. To the extent a Dividend Period with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock or any shares of Parity Stock (in either case, the “first series”) coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to another series, as applicable (in either case, a “second series”), then, for purposes of this paragraph, the Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) may, to the extent permitted by the terms of each affected series, treat such dividend period for the first series as two or more consecutive dividend periods, none of which coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to the second series, or may treat such dividend period(s) with respect to any Parity Stock and Dividend Period(s) with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock for purposes of this paragraph in any other manner that it deems to be fair and equitable in order to achieve ratable payments of dividends on such Parity Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock.

Subject to the foregoing, dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise, as may be determined by the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board) may be declared and paid on the Common Stock or any other shares of Junior Stock from time to time out of any funds legally available for such payment, and the Series D Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividend.

Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock will not be declared, paid or set aside for payment if the Corporation fails to comply, or if such act would cause the Corporation to fail to comply, with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

6.            Liquidation Rights.

(a)            Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, holders of Series D Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to shareholders of the Corporation, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Corporation and any required distributions to holders of stock, if any, that ranks senior to the Series D Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up but before any distribution of assets is made to holders of Common Stock and any other Junior Stock, a liquidating distribution equal to the stated amount of $25,000 per share plus declared but unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any other amounts from the Corporation after they have received their full liquidation preference.

(b)            Partial Payment. If in any distribution described in Section 6(a) above the assets of the Corporation are not sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preferences (as defined below) in full to all holders of Series D Preferred Stock and all holders of any Parity Stock, the amounts paid to the holders of Series D Preferred Stock and to the holders of all such other Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate Liquidation Preferences of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock and the holders of all such other Parity Stock. In any such distribution, the “Liquidation Preference” of any holder of Series D Preferred Stock or Parity Stock shall mean the amount otherwise payable to such holder in such distribution (assuming no limitation on the assets of the Corporation available for such distribution), including an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends (and any unpaid, accrued cumulative dividends in the case of any holder of stock on which dividends accrue on a cumulative basis, whether or not declared, as applicable).

(c)            Residual Distributions. If the Liquidation Preference has been paid in full to all holders of Series D Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, the holders of Junior Stock of the Corporation shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the Corporation according to their respective rights and preferences.

(d)            Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 6, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any other entity, including a merger or consolidation in which the holders of Series D Preferred Stock receive cash, securities or other property for their shares, or the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the assets, for cash, securities or other property, shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation.

7.             Redemption.

(a)            Optional Redemption. The Series D Preferred Stock is perpetual and has no maturity date. The Corporation may, at its option, redeem the shares of Series D Preferred Stock at the time outstanding upon notice given as provided in Section 7(c) below:

(i)             in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after the First Call Date, at a redemption price equal to the stated amount of $25,000 per share of Series D Preferred Stock, plus (except as provided below) an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends and the portion of the quarterly dividend per share attributable to the then-current Dividend Period that has not been declared and paid to, but excluding, the Redemption Date,

(ii)            in whole, but not in part, at any time prior to the First Call Date, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event, at a redemption price equal to $25,500 per share of Series D Preferred Stock, plus (except as provided below) an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends and the portion of the quarterly dividend per share of Series D Preferred Stock attributable to the then-current Dividend Period that has not been declared and paid to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, or

(iii)           in whole, but not in part, at any time prior to the First Call Date, within 90 days after the occurrence of a Regulatory Capital Event, at a redemption price equal to the stated amount of $25,000 per share of Series D Preferred Stock, plus (except as provided below) an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends and the portion of the quarterly dividend per share of Series D Preferred Stock attributable to the then-current Dividend Period that has not been declared and paid to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

The redemption price for any shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be payable on the Redemption Date to the holder of such shares against surrender of the certificate(s) evidencing such shares to the Corporation or its agent. Any declared but unpaid dividends payable on a Redemption Date that occurs subsequent to the Dividend Record Date for a Dividend Period shall not constitute a part of or be paid to the holder entitled to receive the redemption price on the Redemption Date, but rather shall be paid to the holder of record of the redeemed shares on the Dividend Record Date relating to such Dividend Payment Date as provided in Section 5 above. Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock will have no right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Series D Preferred Stock.

There are no restrictions on the Corporation’s redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock while there is any arrearage in the payment of dividends or sinking fund installments (if any).

(b)            No Sinking Fund. The Series D Preferred Stock will not be subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund, retirement fund, purchase fund or other similar provisions.

(c)            Notice of Redemption. Notice of every redemption of shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed, mailed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Such mailing shall be not less than 30 days nor (except as otherwise provided herein) more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof. Any notice mailed as provided in this Section 7(c) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series D Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series D Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Series D Preferred Stock is held in book-entry form through DTC or any other similar facility, notice of redemption may be given to the holders of Series D Preferred Stock at such time and in any manner permitted by such facility.

Each such notice given to a holder shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares of Series D Preferred Stock held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of shares of such Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder (if determinable at the time of such notice); (iii) the redemption price; (iv) if shares of Series D Preferred Stock are evidenced by definitive certificates, the place or places where holders may surrender certificates evidencing those shares of Series D Preferred Stock for payment of the redemption price; (v) that dividends will not accrue for any period beginning on or after the Redemption Date; and (vi) if such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date (or by the Redemption Date so delayed), or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Corporation’s discretion if in the Corporation’s good faith judgment any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied.

(d)            Conditional Redemption. Any redemption of the Series D Preferred Stock may, at the Corporation’s discretion, be subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including completion or occurrence of any related transaction or event and, in such case, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was provided) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date (or by the Redemption Date so delayed), or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Corporation’s discretion if in the good faith judgment of the Corporation any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied.

(e)            Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of only part of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected either pro rata or by lot. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Corporation shall have full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the holder thereof.

(f)            Effectiveness of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given and if on or before the Redemption Date specified in the notice all funds necessary for the redemption have been set aside by the Corporation, separate and apart from its other funds, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, so as to be and continue to be available therefor, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for any share so called for redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the Redemption Date, (i) dividends shall not accrue on all shares so called for redemption for any period beginning on or after the Redemption Date, (ii) all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed outstanding and (iii) all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith on such Redemption Date cease and terminate, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive the amount payable on such redemption, without interest. Any funds unclaimed at the end of two years from the Redemption Date, to the extent permitted by law, shall be released from the trust so established and may be commingled with other funds of the Corporation, and after that time the holders of the shares so called for redemption shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the redemption price of such shares.

8.            Voting Rights.

(a)            General. The holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights except as expressly set forth below.

(b)            Right to Elect Two Directors on Nonpayment of Dividends. Whenever dividends on any shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall have not been declared and paid for six or more Dividend Periods, whether or not for consecutive Dividend Periods (a “Nonpayment”), the holders of such shares of Series D Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class with holders of any and all other series of Voting Preferred Stock then outstanding, will be entitled to vote for the election of a total of two additional members of the Board (the “Preferred Stock Directors”), provided that the election of any such directors shall not cause the Corporation to violate the corporate governance requirement of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (or any other exchange on which the securities of the Corporation may be listed) that listed companies must have a majority of independent directors and provided, further, that the Board shall at no time include more than two Preferred Stock Directors. In that event, the number of directors on the Board shall automatically increase by two, and the new directors shall be elected at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of record of at least 20% of the Series D Preferred Stock or of any other series of Voting Preferred Stock (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders, in which event such election shall be held at such next annual or special meeting of shareholders), and at each subsequent annual meeting. These voting rights will continue until dividends on the shares of Series D Preferred Stock and any such series of Voting Preferred Stock for at least four consecutive dividend periods (or the equivalent thereof, in the case of any other series of Voting Preferred Stock) following the Nonpayment shall have been fully paid.

If and when dividends for at least four consecutive Dividend Periods (or the equivalent thereof, in the case of any other series of Voting Preferred Stock) following a Nonpayment have been paid in full, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be divested of the foregoing voting rights (subject to revesting in the event of each subsequent Nonpayment) and, if such voting rights for all other holders of Voting Preferred Stock have terminated, the term of office of each Preferred Stock Director so elected shall immediately terminate and the number of directors on the Board shall automatically decrease by two. In determining whether dividends have been paid for at least four consecutive Dividend Periods (or the equivalent thereof, in the case of any other series of Voting Preferred Stock) following a Nonpayment, the Corporation may take account of any dividend the Corporation elects to pay for such a Dividend Period after the regular Dividend Payment Date for that period has passed. Any Preferred Stock Director may be removed at any time without cause by the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock and any other shares of Voting Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting together as a class) when they have the voting rights described above. So long as a Nonpayment shall continue, any vacancy in the office of a Preferred Stock Director (other than prior to the initial election after a Nonpayment) may be filled by the written consent of the Preferred Stock Director remaining in office, or if none remains in office, by a vote of the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Series D Preferred Stock and any other shares of Voting Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting together as a class) when they have the voting rights described above, provided that the filling of any such vacancy shall not cause the Corporation to violate the corporate governance requirement of the NYSE (or any other exchange on which the securities of the Corporation may be listed) that listed companies must have a majority of independent directors. Any such vote to remove, or to fill a vacancy in the office of, a Preferred Stock Director may be taken only at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of record of at least 20% of the Series D Preferred Stock or of any other series of Voting Preferred Stock (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders, in which event such election shall be held at such next annual or special meeting of shareholders). The Preferred Stock Directors shall each be entitled to one vote per director on any matter.

(c)            Other Voting Rights. So long as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of shareholders required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, shall be required to:

(i)             Authorization of Senior Stock. amend the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize or increase the authorized amount of, or issue shares of any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock ranking senior to the Series D Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares;

(ii)            Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or Certificate of Designations. amend the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) or Bylaws so as to adversely affect the voting powers, preferences, privileges or special rights of the Series D Preferred Stock, provided, however, that any increase in the amount of the authorized or issued Series D Preferred Stock or authorized Common Stock or Preferred Stock or the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, of other class or series of stock ranking equally or junior to the Series D Preferred Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation shall not be deemed to adversely affect the voting powers, preferences, privileges or special rights of the Series D Preferred Stock (and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not require any vote of or notice to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock); or

(iii)           Share Exchanges, Reclassifications, Mergers and Consolidations and Other Transactions. consummate (A) a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Series D Preferred Stock, (B) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another entity (whether or not a corporation) or (C) a conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance of the Corporation into another entity or an entity organized under the laws of another jurisdiction, unless, in each case, (x) the shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding or are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, and (y) the shares of Series D Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preference securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and restrictions and limitations thereof, of the Series D Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation, taken as a whole.

If an amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation, or any conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance described above entitling the holders of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock to vote as a separate class would materially and adversely affect one or more but not all series of Voting Preferred Stock, then only the series materially and adversely affected and entitled to vote shall vote to the exclusion of all other series of Preferred Stock. If all series of Voting Preferred Stock are not equally affected by the proposed amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation, or conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance described above entitling holders of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock to vote as a separate class, there shall be required a two-thirds approval of each series of Voting Preferred Stock that will have a diminished status.

Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock will have any voting rights otherwise required by any mandatory, non-waivable requirements of applicable law, but are hereby deemed to have waived any voting rights they may otherwise have to the extent not mandatory or otherwise waivable under applicable law.

(d)            Changes for Clarification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, without the consent of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock, so long as such action does not adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series D Preferred Stock, the Corporation may supplement any terms of the Series D Preferred Stock:

(i)             to cure any ambiguity, or to cure, correct or supplement any provision contained in this Certificate of Designations that may be defective or inconsistent; or

(ii)            to make any provision with respect to matters or questions arising with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock that is not inconsistent with the provisions of this Certificate of Designations.

(e)            Changes After Provisions for Redemption. No vote or consent of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall be required pursuant to Sections 8(b) and (c) above if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which the vote or consent would otherwise be required pursuant to Sections 8(b) and (c), all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall have been redeemed, or shall have been called for redemption upon proper notice (and any conditions to such redemption have been satisfied or waived by the Corporation) and sufficient funds shall have been set aside by the Corporation for the benefit of the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock to effect the redemption, in each case pursuant to Section 7 above, unless in the case of a vote or consent required to authorize stock ranking senior to the Series D Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, if all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock are being redeemed with the proceeds from the sale of such stock to be authorized.

(f)            Procedures for Voting and Consents. The rules and procedures for calling and conducting any meeting of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock (including, without limitation, the fixing of a record date in connection therewith), the solicitation and use of proxies at such a meeting, the obtaining of written consents and any other aspect or matter with regard to such a meeting or such consents shall be governed by any rules the Board (or a duly authorized committee of the Board), in its discretion, may adopt from time to time, which rules and procedures shall conform to the requirements of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, applicable law and any national securities exchange or other trading facility on which the Series D Preferred Stock is listed or traded at the time. Whether a plurality, majority or other portion of the Series D Preferred Stock and any other Voting Preferred Stock, as applicable, has been voted in favor of any matter shall be determined by the Corporation by reference to the respective stated amounts of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock and other Voting Preferred Stock, as applicable, voted or covered by the consent.

9.              Record Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation and the Transfer Agent for the Series D Preferred Stock may deem and treat the record holder of any share of Series D Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor such Transfer Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

10.            Notices. All notices or communications in respect of Series D Preferred Stock shall be sufficiently given if given in writing and delivered in person or by first-class mail, postage prepaid, or if given in such other manner as may be permitted in this Certificate of Designations, in the Certificate of Incorporation, in the Bylaws or by applicable law.

11.            No Conversion Rights. The Series D Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock or other securities of the Corporation.

12.            No Preemptive Rights. No share of Series D Preferred Stock shall have any rights of preemption whatsoever as to any securities of the Corporation, or any warrants, rights or options issued or granted with respect thereto, regardless of how such securities, or such warrants, rights or options, may be designated, issued or granted.

13.            Other Rights. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall not have any voting powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other special rights, or qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, other than as set forth herein or in the Certificate of Incorporation or as provided by applicable law.

14.            Certificates. The Corporation may, at its option, issue shares of Series D Preferred Stock without certificates. As long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the Series D Preferred Stock, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of all shares of Series D Preferred Stock for all purposes under the instruments governing the rights and obligations of holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock. If DTC discontinues providing its services as securities depositary with respect to the shares of Series D Preferred Stock, or if DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act, in the event that a successor securities depositary is not obtained within 90 days, the Corporation will either print and deliver certificates for the shares of Series D Preferred Stock or provide for the direct registration of the Series D Preferred Stock with the Transfer Agent. If the Corporation decides to discontinue the use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depositary), certificates for the shares of Series D Preferred Stock will be printed and delivered to DTC or the Corporation will provide for the direct registration of the Series D Preferred Stock with the Transfer Agent. Except in the limited circumstances referred to above, owners of beneficial interests in the Series D Preferred Stock:

(a)            will not be entitled to have such Series D Preferred Stock registered in their names;

(b)            will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of securities certificates in exchange for beneficial interests in the Series D Preferred Stock; and

(c)            will not be considered to be owners or holders of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock for any purpose under the instruments governing the rights and obligations of holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

The definitive Receipts shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Agreement, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided (but which do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or responsibilities of the Depositary). Pending the preparation of definitive Receipts, the Depositary, upon the written order of the Corporation, delivered in compliance with Section 2.2, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which may be printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Persons executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Receipts.

Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Receipts.

Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual, facsimile or electronic signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed manually or by facsimile or electronic signature by a duly authorized officer of the Depositary or, if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, by manual, facsimile or electronic signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary and countersigned by manual, facsimile or electronic signature by a duly authorized officer of such Registrar. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided. Receipts bearing the manual, facsimile or electronic signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at such time a proper signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory ceased to hold such office prior to the execution and delivery of such Receipts by the Registrar or did not hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts.

Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. All Receipts shall be dated the date of their issuance.

Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends, recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement (but which do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities or responsibilities of the Depositary), all as may be required by the Depositary and approved by the Corporation or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject.

Title to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures; provided, however, that until transfer of any particular Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.3, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the Person entitled to distributions of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Agreement and for all other purposes.

SECTION 2.2.     Deposit of Preferred Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Corporation may from time to time deposit shares of Preferred Stock under this Agreement by delivering to the Depositary, including via electronic book-entry, such shares of Preferred Stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with (i) all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) a written order of the Corporation directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the Person or Persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing such deposited Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock that is deposited shall be held by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office. As Transfer Agent, the Trust Company will reflect changes in the number of shares of deposited Preferred Stock held by it by notation, book-entry or other appropriate method. The Depositary shall not lend any Preferred Stock deposited hereunder.

Upon receipt by the Depositary of Preferred Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2, together with the other documents required as above specified, and upon recordation of the Preferred Stock on the books of the Corporation (or its duly appointed transfer agent) in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, shall execute and deliver to or upon the order of the Person or Persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section 2.2, a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing the Preferred Stock so deposited and registered in such name or names as may be requested by such Person or Persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office.

SECTION 2.3.     Registration of Transfer of Receipts.

The Corporation hereby appoints the Trust Company as the Registrar, Transfer Agent and redemption agent and Computershare as the disbursing agent in respect of the Receipts and the Trust Company and Computershare hereby accept such appointment, subject to the express terms and conditions of this Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trust Company or Computershare. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Transfer Agent shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by the Holder or by such Holder’s duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer which shall be affixed with the signature guarantee of a guarantor institution which is a participant in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association (a “Signature Guarantee”), and any other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required by the Transfer Agent, together with evidence of the payment by the applicable party of any transfer taxes or similar charges as may be required to be paid under applicable law. Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as those evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Person entitled thereto. With respect to the appointments of the Trust Company as Registrar and Transfer Agent and Computershare as disbursing agent in respect of the Receipts, the Trust Company and Computershare, in its respective capacities under such appointments, shall be entitled to the same rights, indemnities, immunities and benefits as the Depositary hereunder as if explicitly named in each such provisions.

The Depositary shall not be required (a) to issue, transfer or exchange any Receipts for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days prior to any selection of Depositary Shares and Preferred Stock to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of notice of redemption, or (b) to transfer or exchange for another Receipt any Receipt called or being called for redemption in whole or in part except as provided in Section 2.8.

SECTION 2.4.     Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Preferred Stock.

Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered, and shall deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Holder of the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered.

Any Holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw the number of whole shares of Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office. Thereafter, as soon as practicable, the Depositary shall deliver to such Holder, or to the Person or Persons designated by such Holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for withdrawal, but Holders of such whole shares of Preferred Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Preferred Stock hereunder or to receive a Receipt evidencing Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by the Holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the number of whole shares of Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Preferred Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such Holder, or subject to Section 2.3 upon his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares.

In no event will fractional shares of Preferred Stock (or any cash payment in lieu thereof) be delivered by the Depositary. Delivery of the Preferred Stock and money and other property, if any, being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer including, but not limited to, a Signature Guarantee.

If the Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, being withdrawn are to be delivered to a Person or Persons other than the Record Holder of the related Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of such Preferred Stock, such Holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such Holder for withdrawal of such shares of Preferred Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank.

Delivery of the Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the Holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the Holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such Holder.

SECTION 2.5.     Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender and Exchange of Receipts.

As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration and registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Corporation may require payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Corporation shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or expenses payable by the Holder of a Receipt pursuant to Section 5.7, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature, including a Signature Guarantee, and any other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required by the Depositary, and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or the Corporation may establish consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and/or applicable law.

The deposit of the Preferred Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Preferred Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Corporation is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Corporation at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.6.     Lost Receipts, etc.

In case any Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary in its discretion may execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (i) the filing by the Holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of such Holder’s ownership thereof, (ii) the Holder thereof furnishing the Depositary with an affidavit and an indemnity or bond satisfactory to the Depositary, and (iii) the payment of any reasonable expense in connection with such execution and delivery. Applicants for such substitute Receipts shall also comply with such other regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Depositary may prescribe and as required by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

SECTION 2.7.     Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts.

All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is authorized and directed to destroy all Receipts so cancelled.

SECTION 2.8.     Redemption of Preferred Stock.

Whenever the Corporation shall be permitted and shall elect to redeem shares of Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designations, it shall give or cause to be given to the Depositary, not less than 35 days (or such shorter notice period as the Depositary may agree) and (except as otherwise provided herein) not more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date (as defined below), notice of the date of such proposed redemption of Preferred Stock and of the number of such shares held by the Depositary to be so redeemed and the applicable redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, and the place or places where the certificates evidencing such shares, if any, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and whether such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, which notice shall be accompanied by a certificate from the Corporation stating that such redemption of Preferred Stock is in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Designations. On the Redemption Date, provided, that the Corporation shall then have paid or caused to be paid in full to Computershare the Redemption Price of the Preferred Stock to be redeemed, plus an amount equal to any declared and unpaid dividends (without accumulation of any undeclared dividends) thereon to (but excluding) the Redemption Date, in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such Preferred Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of the Corporation’s redemption of Preferred Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares representing the Preferred Stock to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid (or another reasonably acceptable transmission method), not less than 30 days and (except as otherwise provided herein) not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares (the “Redemption Date”) (provided, that, the Depositary receives notice from the Corporation sufficiently in advance of the Redemption Date) to the Record Holders of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed at their respective last addresses as they appear on the records of the Depositary; but neither failure to mail or transmit any such notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders nor any defect in any notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to the other Holders. Each such notice shall be prepared by the Corporation and shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if less than all the Depositary Shares held by any such Holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such Holder to be so redeemed; (iii) the Redemption Price or the manner of its calculation; (iv) the place or places where Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; (v) that dividends in respect of the Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such Redemption Date; and (vi) if such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, that such redemption is subject to one or more conditions precedent and that the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date (or by the Redemption Date so delayed), or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Corporation’s discretion if in the Corporation’s good faith judgment any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied. In case less than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed shall be selected either pro rata, by lot or by such other method in accordance with the procedures of DTC.

Subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, the redemption of the Preferred Stock and the simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares representing the Preferred Stock may, at the Corporation’s discretion, be subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including completion or occurrence of any related transaction or event and, in such case, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time (including more than 90 days after the date the notice of redemption was provided to the Depositary or 60 days after the date the notice of redemption was provided to the Record Holders of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Redemption Date (or by the Redemption Date so delayed), or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Corporation’s discretion if in the Corporation’s good faith judgment any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied.

Notice having been mailed or transmitted by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Corporation shall have failed to provide the funds necessary to redeem the Preferred Stock evidenced by the Depositary Shares called for redemption), (i) dividends on the shares of Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall cease to accrue from and after such date, (ii) the Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, (iii) all rights of the Holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the right to receive the Redemption Price) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate, and (iv) upon surrender in accordance with such redemption notice of the Receipts evidencing any such Depositary Shares called for redemption (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary or applicable law shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at a Redemption Price per Depositary Share equal to 1/1,000th of the Redemption Price per share of Preferred Stock so redeemed plus all money and other property, if any, represented by such Depositary Shares, including all amounts paid by the Corporation in respect of dividends in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Designations.

If fewer than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the Holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called for redemption.

SECTION 2.9.     Receipt of Funds.

All funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of the services hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Corporation and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent for the Corporation. Until paid pursuant to this Agreement, Computershare may hold or invest the Funds through such accounts in: (i) funds backed by obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America; (ii) debt or commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by S&P Global Inc. (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively; (iii) Government and Treasury backed AAA-rated Fixed NAV money market funds that comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; or (iv) short term certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements, and bank accounts with commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion, or with an investment grade rating by S&P (LT Local Issuer Credit Rating), Moody’s (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (LT Issuer Default Rating) (each as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.). Computershare shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit or investment made by Computershare in accordance with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party. Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits or investments. Computershare shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Corporation, any Holder or any other Person.

SECTION 2.10.   Receipts Issuable in Global Registered Form.

If the Corporation shall determine in a writing delivered to the Depositary that the Receipts are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Registered Receipts, then the Depositary shall, in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement, execute and deliver one or more Global Registered Receipts evidencing such Receipts, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in the aggregate number of Depositary Shares to be represented by such Global Registered Receipt or Receipts, and (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Global Receipt Depository therefor or its nominee.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, unless otherwise provided in the Global Registered Receipt, a Global Registered Receipt may only be transferred in whole and only by the applicable Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt to a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository, or by a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository to such Global Receipt Depository or another nominee of such Global Receipt Depository, or by such Global Receipt Depository or any such nominee to a successor Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt selected or approved by the Corporation or to a nominee of such successor Global Receipt Depository. Except as provided herein, owners solely of beneficial interests in a Global Registered Receipt shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Receipts represented by such Global Registered Receipt. Neither any such beneficial owner nor any direct or indirect participant of a Global Receipt Depository shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement with respect to any Global Registered Receipt held on their behalf by a Global Receipt Depository, and such Global Receipt Depository may be treated by the Corporation, the Depositary and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or the Depositary as the holder of such Global Registered Receipt for all purposes whatsoever. Unless and until definitive Receipts are delivered to the owners of the beneficial interests in a Global Registered Receipt, (1) the applicable Global Receipt Depository will make book-entry transfers among its participants and receive and transmit all payments and distributions in respect of the Global Registered Receipts to such participants, in each case, in accordance with its applicable procedures and arrangements, and (2) whenever any notice, payment or other communication to the holders of Global Registered Receipts is required under this Agreement, the Corporation and the Depositary shall give all such notices, payments and communications specified herein to be given to such holders to the applicable Global Receipt Depository.

If an Exchange Event has occurred with respect to any Global Registered Receipt, then, in any such event, the Depositary, upon receipt of a written order from the Corporation for the execution and delivery of individual definitive registered Receipts in exchange for such Global Registered Receipt, shall execute and deliver individual definitive registered Receipts, in authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms in an aggregate number equal to the beneficial interests represented by such Global Registered Receipt in exchange for such Global Registered Receipt.

Definitive registered Receipts issued in exchange for a Global Registered Receipt pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt, pursuant to instructions from its participants, shall instruct the Depositary in writing. The Depositary shall deliver such Receipts to the Persons in whose names such Receipts are so registered.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, should the Corporation determine that the Receipts should be issued as a Global Registered Receipt, the parties hereto shall comply with the terms of any Letter of Representations.

SECTION 2.11.   Appointment of Depositary.

The Corporation hereby appoints the Depositary as depositary for the Preferred Stock, and the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment, on the express terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Depositary.

ARTICLE III

Certain Obligations of Holders of Receipts and the Corporation

SECTION 3.1.     Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information.

Any Holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Corporation may reasonably deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Corporation may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer or redemption, of any Receipt or the withdrawal of the Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares and evidenced by a Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made.

SECTION 3.2.     Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges.

Holders of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain taxes, charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7, or provide evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that such taxes, charges and expenses have been paid. Registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Preferred Stock and all money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made, and any dividends, interest payments or other distributions may be withheld or any part of or all the Preferred Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the Holder thereof (after attempting to notify such Holder in accordance with Section 7.4 prior to such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the Holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.

SECTION 3.3.     Warranty as to Preferred Stock; Opinion

The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Preferred Stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of the related Receipts. The Depositary shall be permitted to rely on applicable opinions of counsel delivered to the underwriters pursuant to Section 7(b) of the underwriting agreement dated January 7, 2025 among the Corporation and the representatives of the underwriters named therein relating to the sale of the Depositary Shares to the public.

SECTION 3.4.     Warranty as to Receipts.

The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when issued, will represent legal and valid interests in the Preferred Stock. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Receipts.

ARTICLE IV

The Deposited Securities; Notices

SECTION 4.1.     Cash Distributions.

Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on the Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, at the written direction of the Corporation, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of such dividend or distribution as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such Holders; provided, however, that in case the Corporation or the Depositary shall be required to withhold and shall withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Preferred Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly. The Depositary shall distribute or make available for distribution, as the case may be, only such amount, however, as can be distributed without attributing to any Holder of Receipts a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional amounts shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to registered Holders entitled thereto and any balance not so distributable shall be held by the Depositary (without liability for interest thereon) and shall be added to and be treated as part of the next succeeding distribution to Record Holders of such Receipts. Each Holder of a Receipt shall provide the Depositary with a properly completed Form W-8 or W-9 (which form shall set forth the Holder’s certified tax identification number if requested on such form), as may be applicable. Each Holder of a Receipt acknowledges that, in the event of non-compliance with the preceding sentence, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may require withholding by the Depositary of a portion of any of the distributions to be made hereunder.

SECTION 4.2.     Distributions Other than Cash, Rights, Preferences or Privileges.

Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights, preferences or privileges upon the Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, at the written direction of the Corporation, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts held by such Holders, in any manner that the Corporation (in consultation with the Depositary) may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Corporation (in consultation with the Depositary) such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Record Holders, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Corporation or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Corporation deems, after consultation with the Depositary, such distribution not to be feasible, the Corporation may adopt (and will notify the Depositary of its adoption of) such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, in a commercially reasonable manner. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by Computershare to Record Holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Corporation shall not make any distribution of such securities or property to the Depositary and the Depositary shall not make any distribution of such securities or property to the Holders of Receipts unless the Corporation shall have provided an opinion of counsel stating that such securities or property have been registered under the Securities Act or do not need to be registered in connection with such distributions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Corporation shall calculate and transmit to the Depositary, and the Depositary shall have no obligation under this Agreement to calculate the amounts of cashless distributions. The Corporation may consult with the Depositary, provided, however, that any determination as to such distributions will be the responsibility of the Corporation, and the Depositary shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or confirm whether the Corporation’s determination is accurate or correct.

SECTION 4.3.     Subscription Rights, Preferences or Privileges.

If the Corporation shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the Persons in whose names the Preferred Stock is recorded on the books of the Corporation any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts in such manner as the Corporation shall instruct the Depositary in writing, either by the issue to such Record Holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Corporation in its discretion with written notice to the Depositary; provided, however, that (i) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Corporation determines upon advice of its legal counsel that it is not lawful or feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available to the Holders of Receipts (by the issue of warrants or otherwise), or (ii) if and to the extent so instructed by Holders of Receipts who do not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges, then the Corporation, in its discretion (with written notice to the Depositary), in any case where the Corporation has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available, may, if applicable laws or the terms of such rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Depositary shall not make any distribution of such rights, preferences or privileges, unless the Corporation shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel stating that such rights, preferences or privileges have been registered under the Securities Act or do not need to be so registered.

The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences or privileges relate is required in order for Holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that it will file promptly a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, preferences or privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event shall the Depositary make available to the Holders of Receipts any right, preference or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until such registration statement shall have become effective, or the Corporation shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel to the effect that the offering and sale of such securities to the Holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act.

The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to Holders of Receipts, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that the Corporation will use its reasonable best efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges.

The Depositary will not be deemed to have any knowledge of any item for which it is supposed to receive notification under any Section of this Agreement unless and until it has received such notification in writing.

SECTION 4.4.     Notice of Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Holders of Receipts.

Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to the Preferred Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to notice, or whenever the Depositary and the Corporation shall decide it is appropriate, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Corporation with respect to or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Preferred Stock) for the determination of the Holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to notice of such meeting or for any other appropriate reasons.

SECTION 4.5.     Voting Rights.

Subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail (or otherwise transmit by an authorized method) to the Record Holders of Receipts a notice prepared by the Corporation which shall contain (i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (ii) a statement that the Holders may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Preferred Stock represented by their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Corporation) and a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of the Holders of Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall, to the extent possible, vote or cause to be voted with respect to the applicable matters on which such shares of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting instructions are received; provided, that the Depositary receives such instructions sufficiently in advance of such voting to enable it to so vote or cause such Preferred Stock to be voted. The Corporation hereby agrees to take all reasonable action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such shares of Preferred Stock or cause such shares of Preferred Stock to be voted with respect to the applicable matters on which such shares of Preferred stock are entitled to vote. In the absence of specific instructions from the Holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote (but, at its discretion, may appear at any meeting with respect to such Preferred Stock unless directed to the contrary by the Holders of all the Receipts) to the extent of the Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt.

SECTION 4.6.     Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, etc.

Upon any change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Preferred Stock, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation affecting the Corporation or to which it is a party, the Depositary shall, upon the written instructions of the Corporation setting forth any adjustments, (i) make such adjustments as are certified by the Corporation in the fraction of an interest represented by one Depositary Share in one share of Preferred Stock and in the ratio of the Redemption Price per Depositary Share to the Redemption Price per share of Preferred Stock, in each case as may be necessary fully to reflect the effects of such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Preferred Stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and (ii) treat any securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Preferred Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Preferred Stock. In any such case, the Depositary may, upon the receipt of written instructions from the Corporation, execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Holders of Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Preferred Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Preferred Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property and cash into which the Preferred Stock represented by such Receipts might have been converted or for which such Preferred Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of such transaction.

SECTION 4.7.     Delivery of Reports.

The Depositary shall furnish to Holders of Receipts any reports and communications received from the Corporation which are received by the Depositary and which, to the Depositary’s knowledge, the Corporation is required to furnish to the holders of the Preferred Stock.

SECTION 4.8.     Lists of Receipt Holders.

Reasonably promptly upon request from time to time by the Corporation, at the sole expense of the Corporation, the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of the most recent practicable date, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all registered Holders of Receipts.

ARTICLE V

The Depositary, The Depositary’s Agents, The Registrar and The Corporation

SECTION 5.1.     Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary; Registrar.

Upon execution of this Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the Depositary’s Office, facilities for the execution and delivery, registration and registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts and, at the offices of the Depositary’s Agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, all in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

The Registrar shall keep books at the Depositary’s Office for the registration and registration of transfer of Receipts, which books at all reasonable times during regular business hours shall be open for inspection by the Record Holders of Receipts; provided, that any such Holder requesting to exercise such right shall certify to the Registrar that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably related to such Person’s interest as an owner of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts.

The Registrar may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, or because of any requirement of law or any government, governmental body or commission, stock exchange or any applicable self-regulatory body.

If the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares shall be listed on one or more national securities exchanges, the Depositary may, with the written approval of the Corporation, appoint a Registrar (acceptable to the Corporation) for registration of the Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar (which may be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of any such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Depositary upon the request or with the approval of the Corporation. If the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Preferred Stock are listed on one or more other securities exchanges, the Depositary will, at the request of the Corporation, arrange such facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Preferred Stock as may be required by law or applicable securities exchange regulations.

SECTION 5.2.     Prevention of or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar or the Corporation.

Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor any Transfer Agent nor the Corporation shall incur any liability to any Holder of Receipt or any beneficial owner thereof if by reason of any provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar or any Transfer Agent, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation (including the Certificate of Designations) or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar, the Transfer Agent or the Corporation shall be prevented or forbidden from, or subjected to any penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of this Agreement provide shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar, any Transfer Agent or the Corporation incur liability to any Holder of a Receipt or any beneficial owner thereof (i) by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which the terms of this Agreement shall provide shall or may be done or performed, or (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Agreement except in the event of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) of the party charged with such exercise or failure to exercise.

SECTION 5.3.     Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents and the Registrar.

None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Agreement to Holders of Receipts or any other Person other than from acts or omissions arising out of conduct constituting gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, excluding the Depositary’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (for which the limits in this sentence shall not apply), the Depositary’s, any Depositary’s Agent, Registrar’s or Transfer Agent’s aggregate liability under this Agreement with respect to, arising from or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, twice the amount of fees paid hereunder by the Corporation to the Depositary pursuant to this Agreement during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event for which recovery from the Depositary is sought, but not including reimbursable expenses.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Depositary, nor the Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor any Transfer Agent nor the Corporation shall be liable in any event for special, punitive, incidental, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) even if they have been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

The Depositary shall not have any duty or responsibility in the case of the receipt of any written demand from any holder of Receipts with respect to any action or default by the Corporation, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any duty or responsibility to initiate or attempt to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise or to make any demand upon the Corporation.

The Depositary shall not be obligated to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action that it believes would expose or subject it to expense or liability or to a risk of incurring expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with assurances of repayment or indemnity satisfactory to it.

The Depositary shall act hereunder solely as agent for the Corporation, and its duties shall be determined solely by the express provisions hereof (and no duties or obligations shall be inferred or implied). The Depositary shall not assume any obligations or relationship of agency or trust with any of the owners or holders of the Receipt.

Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor any Transfer Agent shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any Person presenting Preferred Stock for deposit, any Holder of a Receipt or any other Person believed by it in the absence of bad faith to be competent to give such information. The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon or omitting to act upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction to vote any of the shares of Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as long as any such action or non-action is not taken in gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (in each case as determined in an final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar or any Transfer Agent.

The Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, and any Registrar or Transfer Agent may own and deal in any class of securities of the Corporation and its affiliates and in Receipts or, subject to applicable law, become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Corporation may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Corporation or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar or Transfer Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude such Persons from acting in any other capacity for the Corporation or for any other legal entity. The Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Corporation and its affiliates.

The Depositary shall not be under any liability for interest on any monies at any time received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Receipts, the Depositary Shares or the Preferred Stock, nor shall it be obligated to segregate such monies from other monies held by it, except as required by law. The Depositary shall not be responsible for advancing funds on behalf of the Corporation and shall have no duty or obligation to make any payments if it has not timely received sufficient funds to make timely payments.

In the event the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by it hereunder, or in the administration of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, omitting or suffering to take any action hereunder, each of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent may, in its sole discretion upon written notice to the Corporation, refrain from taking any action and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Corporation, any Holders of Receipts or any other Person for refraining from taking such action, unless the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar or Transfer Agent, as applicable, receives written instructions or a certificate signed by the Corporation which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty to the satisfaction of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent or which proves or establishes the applicable matter to its satisfaction.

In the event the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any Holders of Receipts, on the one hand, and the Corporation, on the other hand, the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent, shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or instructions received from the Corporation, and shall be entitled to the indemnification set forth in Section 5.6 in connection with any action so taken.

From time to time, the Corporation may provide the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent with instructions concerning the services performed by the Depositary under this Agreement. In addition, at any time, the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent may apply to any officer of the Corporation for instruction, and may consult with legal counsel for the Depositary or the Corporation with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Depositary, Depositary’s Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement. The Depositary, Depositary’s Agent, Registrar, Transfer Agent and their respective agents and subcontractors shall not be liable and shall be indemnified by the Corporation for any action taken or omitted by them in reliance upon any instructions from the Corporation or upon the advice or opinion of such counsel. None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or any Transfer Agent shall be held to have notice of any change of authority of any Person, until receipt of written notice thereof from the Corporation.

The Depositary may rely on and be fully authorized and protected in acting or failing to act upon (a) any guaranty of signature by an “eligible guarantor institution” that is a member or participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program or other comparable “signature guarantee program” or insurance program in addition to, or in substitution for, the foregoing; or (b) any law, act, regulation or any interpretation of the same then in effect.

The Depositary shall not be liable or responsible for any failure of the Corporation to comply with any of its obligations relating to any registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or this Agreement, including without limitation obligations under applicable regulation or law.

The Depositary may rely on and shall be held harmless and protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in reliance upon any certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, facsimile transmission or other document, or any security delivered to it, and believed by it in the absence of bad faith to be genuine and to have been made or signed by the proper party or parties, or upon any written or oral instructions or statements from the Corporation with respect to any matter relating to its acting as Depositary hereunder.

The Depositary may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorney or agents, and the Depositary shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorney or agents or for any loss to the Corporation resulting from any such act, default, neglect or misconduct, absent gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) in the selection and continued employment or engagement thereof.

The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and any Transfer Agent hereunder:

(i)             shall have no duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein (and no implied duties or obligations), or as may subsequently be agreed to in writing by the parties;

(ii)            shall have no obligation to make payment hereunder unless the Corporation shall have provided the necessary federal or other immediately available funds or securities or property, as the case may be, to pay in full amounts due and payable with respect thereto;

(iii)            may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting or omitting to act upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, facsimile transmission or other document or security delivered to it and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or parties, and shall have no responsibility for determining the accuracy thereof;

(iv)           may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting or omitting to act upon the written, telephonic, electronic and oral instructions given in accordance with this Agreement, with respect to any matter relating to its actions as Depositary, Transfer Agent or Registrar covered by this Agreement (or supplementing or qualifying any such actions), by officers of the Corporation;

(v)            may consult counsel satisfactory to it (who may be an employee of the Depositary or the Registrar or counsel to the Corporation), and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in accordance with the advice of such counsel;

(vi)           shall not be called upon at any time to advise any Person with respect to the Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Receipts;

(vii)          shall not be liable or responsible for any recital or statement contained in any documents relating hereto or to the Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or Receipts;

(viii)         shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties (other than the Depositary) executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for under this Agreement; and

(ix)           shall not be obligated to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action that it believes would expose or subject it to expense or liability or to a risk of incurring expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with assurances of repayment or indemnity satisfactory to it.

The obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar set forth in this Section 5.3 shall survive the replacement, removal or resignation of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent or termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.4.     Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary.

The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering 30 days’ written notice of its election to do so to the Corporation, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided, but in no event later than 30 days after delivery of such written notice.

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Corporation by 30 days’ written notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary hereunder and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided, but in no event later than 30 days after delivery of such written notice.

In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Corporation shall, within 30 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be an entity having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000; provided, that the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that there is at all relevant times when the Preferred Stock is outstanding a Person appointed and serving as the Depositary. If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after delivery of such notice, any Record Holder of Receipts hereunder or the resigning or removed Depositary may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Depositary. Every successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Corporation an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Corporation, shall promptly execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all rights, title and interest in the deposited Preferred Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor and shall deliver to such successor a list of the Record Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession relating thereto. Any successor Depositary shall promptly mail (or otherwise transmit by an authorized method) notice of its appointment to the Record Holders of Receipts.

Any Person into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be required hereunder. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or its own name as successor Depositary.

The provisions of this Section 5.4 as they apply to the Depositary apply to the Registrar and Transfer Agent as if specifically enumerated herein.

SECTION 5.5.     Corporate Notices and Reports.

The Corporation agrees that it will deliver to the Depositary, and at the Corporation’s direction the Depositary will, promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts, in each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all notices and reports (including without limitation financial statements) required by law, by the rules of any national securities exchange upon which the Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed or by the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation (including the Certificate of Designations), to be furnished to the Record Holders of Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Corporation’s expense and the Corporation will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may reasonably request. In addition, the Depositary will transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts at the Corporation’s expense such other documents as may be requested by the Corporation.

SECTION 5.6.     Indemnification by the Corporation.

Notwithstanding Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Corporation shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar and any Transfer Agent (including each of their officers, directors, agents and employees) against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, damage, judgment, cost, fine, penalty, claim, demand, settlement, liability or expense (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of its legal counsel) which may arise out of or in connection with acts performed, taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the execution, acceptance, administration, exercise and performance of its duties under this Agreement and the Receipts by the Depositary, any Registrar, any Transfer Agent, or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary’s Agents) and any transactions or documents contemplated hereby, except for any liability arising out of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on the respective parts of any such Person or Persons. The obligations of the Corporation set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive the replacement, removal, resignation or any succession of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent, or termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.7.     Fees, Charges and Expenses.

The Corporation agrees promptly to pay the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent compensation for all services to be agreed upon with the Corporation and rendered by them hereunder in accordance with a fee schedule to be mutually agreed upon and, from time to time, as promptly as practicable after demand of the Depositary, to reimburse the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar, any dividend disbursement agent and any redemption agent for all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses for one outside counsel) and other disbursements incurred in the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Corporation shall pay all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares, all withdrawals of shares of Preferred Stock by owners of Depositary Shares, and any redemption or exchange of the Preferred Stock at the option of the Corporation. The Corporation shall pay all transfer and other similar taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. All other transfer and other similar taxes and governmental charges shall be at the expense of Holders of Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts. If, at the request of a Holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which the Corporation is not otherwise liable hereunder, such Holder will be liable for such charges and expenses; provided, however, that the Depositary may, at its sole option, require a Holder of a Receipt to prepay the Depositary any charge or expense the Depositary has been asked to incur at the request of such Holder of Receipts. The Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Corporation at such intervals as the Corporation and the Depositary may agree. The obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar under this Section 5.7 shall survive the replacement, removal, resignation or any succession of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent or termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.8.     Withholding.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that the Depositary determines that any distribution in property is subject to any tax or other governmental charge which the Depositary is obligated by law to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of, by public or private sale, all or a portion of such property in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of Depositary Shares held by them, respectively; provided, however, that in the event the Depositary determines that such distribution of property is subject to withholding tax only with respect to some but not all Holders of Receipts, the Depositary will use its best efforts (i) to sell only that portion of such property distributable to such Holders that is required to generate sufficient proceeds to pay such withholding tax and (ii) to effect any such sale in such a manner so as to avoid affecting the rights of any other Holders of Receipts to receive such distribution in property.

ARTICLE VI

Amendment and Termination

SECTION 6.1.     Amendment.

The form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the Corporation and the Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that no such amendment which shall materially and adversely alter the rights of the Holders of Receipts shall be effective against the Holders of Receipts unless such amendment shall have been approved by the Holders of Receipts representing in the aggregate at least a two-thirds majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding; provided, further, that as a condition precedent to the Depositary’s execution of any amendment, the Corporation shall deliver to the Depositary a certificate from a duly authorized officer of the Corporation that states that the proposed amendment complies with this Section 6.1. No supplement or amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless duly executed by the Depositary and the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Depositary may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any supplement or amendment that adversely affects the Depositary’s own rights, duties, immunities or obligations under this Agreement. Every Holder of an outstanding Receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by this Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.5 and 2.6 and Article III, of any owner of Depositary Shares to surrender any Receipt evidencing such Depositary Shares to the Depositary with instructions to deliver to the Holder the Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law or the rules and regulations of any governmental body, agency or commission, or applicable securities exchange.

SECTION 6.2.     Termination.

Without limiting any of the rights or immunities of the Depositary under this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by the Corporation or the Depositary only if (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares shall have been redeemed in accordance with the provisions hereof or (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution in respect of the deposited Preferred Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and such distribution shall have been distributed to the Holders of Receipts entitled thereto.

Upon the termination of this Agreement, the Corporation shall be discharged from all obligations under this Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Transfer Agent, Registrar and any other Person under Sections 5.3, 5.6 and 5.7.

Exhibit 5.1

January 10, 2025

American National Group Inc.
12,000,000 Depositary Shares, Each Representing a 1/1,000th Interest in a Share of 7.375% Series D Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for American National Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Prospectus Supplement, dated January 7, 2025 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), of the Company, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and relating to the issuance and sale by the Company of an aggregate of 12,000,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each of which represents ownership of 1/1,000th of a share of 7.375% Series D Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, dated January 7, 2025 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), and the Company.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records, certificates of corporate officers and government officials and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion, including: (a) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended by the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation establishing the preferences, limitations and relative rights of the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Charter”); (b) the By-Laws of the Company; (c) resolutions adopted by unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company on January 6, 2025 and January 8, 2025; (d) resolutions adopted by written consent of the sole stockholder of the Company on January 8, 2025; (e) the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-281155), filed with the Commission on July 31, 2024, with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of $3,500,000,000 aggregate amount of various securities of the Company, to be issued from time to time by the Company, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the Commission on August 27, 2024 (such Registration Statement, as amended by such amendment, being hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”); (f) the Deposit Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2025 (the “Deposit Agreement”), among the Company, Computershare Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., collectively, as Depositary, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. as Registrar and Transfer Agent and the holders from time to time of the Depositary Receipts (as defined therein) issued thereunder and the form of Depositary Receipts included therein. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon representations of officers or directors of the Company and documents furnished to us by the Company without independent verification of their accuracy.

We have also assumed (a) the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and (b) the due authorization, execution and delivery of all agreements by all parties thereto (other than the Company).

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein and subject to compliance with applicable state securities laws, we are of opinion that (i) when issued and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Series D Preferred Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) when the Depositary Receipts are executed, issued and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit Agreement and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Depositary Shares will be validly issued and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits of the Deposit Agreement and enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

We are admitted to practice in the State of New York, and we express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United States of America.

We are aware that we are referred to under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement. We hereby consent to such use of our name therein and to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 10, 2025, and to the incorporation by reference of this opinion into the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
