4.1.1.1.The Company is a duly organized corporation, is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business and activities as presently conducted, to own its properties, and to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company is duly registered as a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.

4.1.1.2.The Bank is the only Subsidiary of the Company that is an insured depository institution. The Bank has been duly chartered and is validly existing as a state member bank organized under the laws of the State of Utah and supervised by the Federal Reserve and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions and each other Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing under the jurisdiction of its incorporation, in each case in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation, has corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests in each Subsidiary of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are owned by the Company, directly or through Subsidiaries of the Company, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or claim; none of the outstanding shares of capital stock of, or other Equity Interests in, any Subsidiary of the Company were issued in violation of the preemptive or similar rights of any security holder of such Subsidiary of the Company or any other entity.

The Bank has not received any written notice or other information indicating that the Bank is not an “insured depository institution” as defined in 12 U.S.C. Section 1813, nor has any event occurred which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the status of the Bank as an FDIC-insured institution.

The Charter of the Company authorizes the Company to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 53,716,320 shares are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, and 5,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 10,085 shares have been designated as Series A Convertible Junior Participating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and no shares are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof.

4.2.2.Agreement. Each of this Agreement and the Paying Agent Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto and thereto, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles.

4.2.3.Senior Notes. The Senior Notes issued on the Closing Date have been duly authorized by the Company and when duly executed by the Company and issued by the Company and delivered to and paid for by the Purchasers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered, and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles.

Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents nor compliance with their respective terms and conditions will (whether with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) (i) violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under: (1) the Charter or Bylaws of the Company; (2) any of the terms, obligations, covenants, conditions or provisions of any material contract, agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, bank loan or credit agreement, or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or the Bank, as applicable, is now a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or affected; (3) any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any court, arbitrator, grand jury, or Governmental Agency applicable to the Company or the Bank; or (4) any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, except, (A) in the case of items (2), (3) or (4), for such violations and conflicts, breaches and defaults that would not, either singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or (B) in the case of item (2), have otherwise been consented to or waived; or (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any material property or asset of the Company. Neither the Company nor the Bank is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the terms, obligations, covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any indenture or other agreement creating, evidencing or securing Indebtedness or pursuant to which any such Indebtedness is issued, or any other
9


agreement or instrument to which the Company or the Bank, as applicable, is a party or by which the Company or the Bank, as applicable, or any of its properties may be bound or affected, except, in each case, only such defaults that would not, either singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Other than loans through Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Discount Window, the Bank is not a party to, or otherwise subject to, any legal restriction or any agreement (other than customary limitations imposed by corporate law statutes, banking law statutes, rules and policies, or other regulatory statutes or restrictions) restricting the ability of the Bank to pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company.

4.2.6.Governmental Consent. No governmental orders, permissions, consents, approvals or authorizations are required to be obtained by the Company that have not been obtained, and no registrations or declarations are required to be filed by the Company that have not been filed, in connection with, or, in contemplation of, the execution and delivery of, and performance under, the Transaction Documents, except for applicable requirements, if any, of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, Regulation D, any applicable state securities laws or “blue sky” laws of the various states and any applicable federal or state banking laws and regulations.

4.2.7.Possession of Licenses and Permits. The Company and its Subsidiaries possess such permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations (collectively, “Governmental Licenses”) issued by the appropriate Governmental Agencies necessary to conduct the business now operated by them except where the failure to possess such Governmental Licenses would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or such applicable Subsidiary. The Company and each Subsidiary of the Company is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or such applicable Subsidiary of the Company. All of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except where the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or such applicable Subsidiary of the Company. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company has received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses, except where such proceedings would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or such applicable Subsidiary.

4.3Financial Condition.

4.3.1.Company Financial Statements.

The books and records of the Company have been, and are being, maintained in all material respects in accordance with GAAP and any other applicable legal and accounting requirements. The Company does
10


not have any material liability of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether due or to become due) required to be reflected on or reserved against in a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, except for those liabilities that are reflected or reserved against on the consolidated balance sheet of the Company contained in the Company Reports for the Company’s most recently completed quarterly or annual fiscal period, as applicable, and for liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.3.2.Absence of Default. Since the end of the Company’s last fiscal year, for which audited financial statements have been included in the Company Reports, no event has occurred which either of itself or with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both, would give any creditor of the Company the right to accelerate the maturity of any material Indebtedness of the Company. The Company is not in default under any Lease, agreement or instrument, or any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction, decree, determination or award, except for such defaults that would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.3.3.Solvency. After giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company has capital sufficient to carry on its business and transactions and is solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature. No transfer of property is being made and no Indebtedness is being incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company.

4.3.4.Ownership or Use of Property. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title as to all real property owned by it and good title to all assets and properties owned by the Company and such Subsidiary in the conduct of its businesses, whether such assets and properties are real or personal, tangible or intangible, including assets and property reflected in the most recent balance sheet contained in the Company Reports or acquired subsequent thereto (except to the extent that such assets and properties have been disposed of in the ordinary course of business, since the date of such balance sheet), subject to no encumbrances, liens, mortgages, security interests or pledges, except (i) those items which secure liabilities for public or statutory obligations or any discount with, borrowing from or other obligations to the Federal Home Loan Bank or the Federal Reserve Bank, inter-bank credit facilities, reverse repurchase agreements or any transaction by the Bank acting in a fiduciary capacity, (ii) statutory liens for amounts not yet due or delinquent or which are being contested in good faith and (iii) such as do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially affect the value of such property and do not materially and adversely interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries, as lessee, has the right under valid and existing Leases of real and personal properties that are material to the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in the conduct of its business to occupy or use all such properties as presently occupied and used by it. Such existing Leases and commitments to Lease constitute or will constitute operating Leases for both tax and financial accounting purposes except as disclosed in the Company Reports and the Lease expense and minimum rental commitments with respect to such Leases and Lease commitments are as disclosed in all material respects in the Company Reports.

4.4No Material Adverse Change. Since the end of the Company’s last fiscal year, for which audited financial statements have been included in the Company Reports, there has been no development or event that has had or would, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.5.3.Pending Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or written agreements pending, or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened in writing or proposed in writing, against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at law or in equity or before or by any federal, state, municipal, or other governmental department, commission, board, or other administrative agency, domestic or foreign, that, either singularly or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or affect issuance or payment of the Senior Notes; and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or named as subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, or decree of, or any written agreement with, any court, commission, board or agency, domestic or foreign, that either separately or in the aggregate, will have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

4.7Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Bank have established and maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting that pertains to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets (on a consolidated basis), provides reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that the Company’s and the Bank’s receipts and expenditures and receipts and expenditures of each of the Company’s other Subsidiaries are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and Board of Directors, and provides reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets of the Company on a consolidated basis that could have a Material Adverse Effect. Such internal control over financial reporting is effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Since the conclusion of the Company’s last completed fiscal year, there has not been (i) any significant deficiency or material weakness in the design or operation of its internal control over financial reporting which is reasonably likely to adversely affect its ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, or (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s or the Bank’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company (A) has implemented and maintains disclosure controls and procedures reasonably designed and maintained to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company by others within the Company and (B) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to the Company’s outside auditors and the audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and of which the Company has knowledge. Such disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the purposes for which they were established.

The Company shall comply and cause the Bank and each of its other Subsidiaries to comply in all material respects with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its properties, except, in each case, where such noncompliance would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.3.2.Regulated Activities. The Company shall not itself, nor shall it cause, permit or allow the Bank or any other of its Subsidiaries to (i) engage in any business or activity not permitted by all applicable laws and regulations, except where such business or activity would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company, the Bank and/or such of its Subsidiaries or (ii) make any loan or advance secured by the capital stock of another bank or depository institution, or acquire the capital stock, assets or obligations of or any interest in another bank or depository institution, in each case other than in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and safe and sound banking practices.

14


material lien or charge upon such properties or any part thereof. However, the Company or such subsidiary shall not be required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so long as the validity thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Company or such subsidiary, as the case may be, shall set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect to any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so contested.

5.4Dividends, Payments, and Guarantees During Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Senior Notes), until such Event of Default is cured by the Company and except as may be required by any federal or state Governmental Agency, the Company shall not (a) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its capital stock; (b) make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, or repay, repurchase or redeem any of the Company’s Indebtedness that ranks equal with or junior to the Senior Notes; or (c) make any payments under any guarantee that ranks equal with or junior to the Senior Notes, in each case other than (i) any dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, any class of the Company’s common stock; (ii) any declaration of a non-cash dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of stock under any such plan in the future, or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto; (iii) as a result of a reclassification of the Company’s capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of the Company’s capital stock for another class or series of the Company’s capital stock; (iv) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or (v) purchases of any class of the Company’s common stock related to the issuance of common stock or rights under any benefit plans for the Company’s directors, officers or employees or any of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plans.

In connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction, the Company shall, at the Purchaser’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Purchaser and otherwise reasonably assist such Purchaser in satisfying the market standards to which such Purchaser customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by applicable rating agencies in connection with any such Secondary Market Transaction, but in no event shall the Company be required to incur any costs or expenses in excess of $10,000 in connection therewith. Subject to any written confidentiality obligation, including the terms of any non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement between
15


such Purchaser and the Company and with the Company’s prior written consent, all information regarding the Company may be furnished, without liability except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, to any Purchaser and to any Person reasonably deemed necessary by such Purchaser in connection with participation in such Secondary Market Transaction; provided that such Person shall agree to keep such information confidential.

It understands and acknowledges that the Senior Notes are characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and its implementing regulations and are being sold by the Company without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on one or more of the exemptions from federal and state registration set forth in, respectively, Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Section 18 of the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws, and accordingly, may be resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only in compliance with the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws or if exemptions from the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws are available to it.

GREEN DOT CORPORATION

8.75% FIXED RATE SENIOR NOTE DUE 2029

1.Senior Notes. This Senior Note is one of an issue of notes of Green Dot Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), designated as the “8.75% Fixed Rate Senior Notes due 2029” (the “Senior Notes”) issued pursuant to those Senior Note Purchase Agreements, dated as of the date upon which this Senior Note was originally issued (the “Issue Date”), between the Company and the several purchasers of the Senior Notes identified on the signature pages thereto (each, a “Purchase Agreement” and collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”). This Senior Note is an unsecured, unsubordinated obligation and ranks equally in right of payment with all other Senior Notes and with all other existing and future unsecured indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of the Company that are not subordinated in right of payment to the Senior Note, and will be effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness.

2.Payment. The Company, for value received, hereby promises to pay to [●], the principal sum of [●] (U.S.) $[●] plus accrued but unpaid interest on September 15, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”) and to pay interest thereon from and including the Issue Date to but excluding the Maturity Date or the earlier redemption date contemplated in Section 3 of this Senior Note, at the rate of 8.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning March 15, 2025. All interest on this Senior Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, for any period less than a full month, on the number of days actually elapsed. Any payment of principal of or interest on this Senior Note that would otherwise become due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day will become due and payable on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for payment of such principal or interest, and no interest will accrue in respect of such payment for the period after such day. A “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are permitted or required by any applicable law or executive order to close.

3.Redemption.

(a)    Redemption the Company’s Option. At any time prior to March 15, 2029 (the date that is six months prior to the Maturity Date (the “Par Call Date”) and subject to Section 3(e) below), the Company may, at its option, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, redeem at any time all, or from time to time part of, the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount so redeemed, but not including the date of redemption, plus the Make-Whole Amount, determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount. At any time on and after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part from time to time, at 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.

The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Senior Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Amount Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Senior Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:
A-4



“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Senior Note, the principal of such Senior Note that is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 3.

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

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Senior Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (a) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date or (b) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release 11.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly between (A) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (B) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Senior Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (ii) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Senior Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Senior Notes, then the interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to this Section 3.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Senior Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 3.

(b)    Partial Redemption. If less than the then outstanding principal amount of Senior Note is redeemed, (i) a new Senior Note shall be issued representing the unredeemed portion without charge to the holder thereof, and (ii) such redemption shall be effected on a pro rata basis as to the Noteholders. For purposes of clarity, upon partial redemption, a like percentage of the principal amount of every Senior Note held by every Noteholder shall be redeemed.
A-5



(c)    No Redemption at Option of Noteholder. Except pursuant to Section 5, this Senior Note is not subject to redemption at the option of the holder of this Senior Note.

(d)    Effectiveness of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given and notwithstanding that this Senior Note has been called for redemption but has not yet been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the date fixed for redemption interest shall cease to accrue on the portion of this Senior Note called for redemption; this Senior Note shall no longer be deemed outstanding with respect to the portion called for redemption and all rights with respect to the portion of this Senior Note called for redemption shall forthwith on such date fixed for redemption cease and terminate unless the Company shall default in the payment of the redemption price, subject only to the right of the Noteholder to receive the amount payable on such redemption, without interest.

(e)    Regulatory Approvals; Notice. Any such redemption shall be subject to receipt of any and all required federal and state regulatory approvals or non-objections, as applicable, including, but not limited to, the consent of the Federal Reserve to the extent then required by applicable law. In the case of any redemption of this Senior Note pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 3, the Company will give the Noteholder notice of redemption, which notice shall indicate the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes to be redeemed, not less than thirty (30) nor more than forty-five (45) calendar days prior to the proposed redemption date.

(f)    Purchase and Resale of the Senior Notes. Subject to any required federal and state regulatory approvals and the provisions of this Senior Note, the Company shall have the right to purchase any of the Senior Notes at any time in the open market, private transactions or otherwise. If the Company purchases any Senior Notes, it may, in its discretion, hold, resell or cancel any of the purchased Senior Notes.

4.Events of Default; Acceleration. Each of the following events will constitute an “Event of Default” under the Senior Note:

(a)    the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization law, now or hereafter in effect of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, and such decree or order will have continued unstayed and in effect for a period of ninety (90) consecutive calendar days;

(b)    the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization law, now or hereafter in effect of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or the consent by the Company to the entry of a decree or order for relief in an involuntary case or proceeding under any such law;

(c)    the Company (i) becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its debts as they mature, (ii) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iii) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or (iv) ceases to be a bank holding company or financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended;

(d)    the failure of the Company to pay any installment of interest on any of the Senior Notes as and when the same will become due and payable, and the continuation of such failure for a period of thirty (30) calendar days;

(e)    the failure of the Company to pay all or any part of the principal of any of the Senior Notes as and when the same will become due and payable;

(f)    the liquidation of the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, “liquidation” does not include any merger, consolidation, sale of equity or assets or reorganization (exclusive of a reorganization in bankruptcy) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries);

(g)    the failure of the Company to perform any other covenant or agreement on the part of the Company contained in the Senior Notes, and the continuation of such failure for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which notice specifying such failure, stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder and demanding that the Company remedy the same, will have been given, in the manner set forth in Section 16 (Notices), to the Company by a Noteholder; and

(h)    the default by the Company under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $25,000,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or is created or incurred in the future, which default (i) constitutes a failure to pay any portion of the principal of such indebtedness when due and payable after the expiration of any applicable grace period or (ii) results in such indebtedness becoming due or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it otherwise would have become due and payable without, in the case of clause (i), such indebtedness having been discharged or, in the case of clause (ii), such indebtedness having been discharged or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled.

Unless the principal amount of this Senior Note already shall have become due and payable, if an Event of Default set forth in Section 4(a), Section 4(b) and Section 4(c) shall have occurred, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Senior Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by the Noteholders. Unless the principal amount of this Senior Note already shall have become due and payable, if an Event of Default set forth in this Section (other than an Event of Default set forth in Section 4(a), Section 4(b) or Section 4(c)) shall have occurred and be continuing, Noteholders holding not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company, may declare the principal amount of all outstanding Senior Notes to be due and payable immediately and, upon any such declaration, the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable. The Company, within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of written notice from any Noteholder of the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Senior Note, shall mail to all Noteholders, at their addresses set forth on the signature page to the Agreement, such written notice of Event of Default, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice as certified by the Company in writing to the Noteholder or Noteholders who provided written notice of such Event of Default.

In the event of any failure by the Company to make any required payment of principal or interest on this Senior Note (and in the case of payment of interest, such failure to pay shall have continued for 30 calendar days), the Company will, upon demand of the Noteholder, pay to the Noteholder the amount then due and payable on this Senior Note for principal and interest (without acceleration of this Senior Note in any manner), with interest on the overdue principal and interest at the rate per annum borne by this Senior Note, to the extent permitted by applicable law. If the Company fails to pay such amount upon such demand, the Noteholder may, among other things, institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company and collect the amounts adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company.

Upon the occurrence of a failure by the Company to make any required payment of principal or interest on this Senior Note, or an Event of Default shall have occurred and until such Event of Default is cured by the Company or waived by the Noteholder in accordance with Section 20 hereof, the Company shall not, except as required by any federal or state governmental agency: (a) declare or pay any
A-7


dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock; (b) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any indebtedness of the Company that ranks equal with or junior to the Senior Notes; or (c) make any payments under any guarantee that ranks equal with or junior to the Senior Notes, other than (i) any dividends or distributions in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, any class of the Company’s common stock; (ii) any declaration of a non-cash dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of stock under any such plan in the future, or the redemption or repurchase of any such rights pursuant thereto; (iii) as a result of a reclassification of the Company’s capital stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of the Company’s capital stock for another class or series of the Company’s capital stock; (iv) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or (v) purchases of any class of the Company’s common stock related to, under or from any benefit plans for the Company’s directors, officers or employees or any of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plans (the foregoing clauses of (i) through (v) are collectively referred to as the “Permitted Dividends”).

5.Change of Control Put Right.

(a)    Upon a Change of Control (as defined below), unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem the Senior Note, Noteholder may elect, in its sole discretion, to require the Company to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to Noteholder to purchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Senior Note at a purchase price in cash equal to one hundred and one percent (101%) of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase. Within thirty (30) days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem the Senior Note, the Company will send a notice to Noteholder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer. Upon receipt of such notice, Noteholder shall complete and provide the Company with the Option of Noteholder to Elect to Purchase Form attached to the Senior Notes.

For purposes of this Senior Note, “Change of Control” means (i) the sale of the Company in a transaction resulting in a person or group of persons acquiring beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of more than a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, whether by asset purchase, stock purchase, merger, business combination or otherwise, or (iii) a Change in Bank Control (as defined below).

(b)    The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Senior Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions under this Section 5, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 5 by virtue thereof.

(c)    The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Senior Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

9.[Global Notes; Definitive Notes. The Senior Notes offered and sold to QIBs (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) are being issued in fully registered book-entry form of one or more global notes (each, a “Global Note”), evidencing all or any portion of the Senior Notes offered and sold to QIBs and registered in the name of CEDE & CO., as nominee of the Depository, The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”) (including their respective successors). The Senior Notes offered and sold to institutional accredited investors (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) that are not QIBs are being issued in definitive form and registered in the name of the applicable Noteholder.

i.Notwithstanding any other provision herein, a Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for definitive Senior Notes registered only in adherence to subsection (ii) below, and no
A-10


transfer of a Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than CEDE & CO., as nominee of the Depository for such Global Note or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Company in writing that such Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Note, and no qualified successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of such notice, (ii) such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and no successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after obtaining knowledge of such event, (iii) the Company elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Company or its agent shall notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to notify all owners of beneficial interests in such Global Note of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of definitive Senior Notes to such owners of beneficial interests requesting the same.

ii.If any Global Note is to be exchanged for definitive Senior Notes as provided in subsection (a) above or canceled in part, or if another note is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, then either (i) such Global Note shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation as provided in this section or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other note to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Company or Registrar (as defined below), whereupon the Company or the Registrar, in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Note by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall execute and deliver any definitive Senior Notes issuable in exchange for such Global Note (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary.

iii.Every Senior Note executed and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof shall be executed and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, unless such Senior Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or a nominee thereof.

iv.CEDE & CO. as the nominee of the Depository, is the registered owner of each Global Note, and shall be the “Registered Holder” of such Global Note for all purposes under this Senior Note, and the holders shall hold such interests in the Senior Notes pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Accordingly, any such holder’s beneficial interest in a Global Note shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Depositary participants. The Registrar shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes relating to a Global Note (including the payment of principal and interest thereon and the giving of instructions or directions by the holders therein and the giving of notices to such holders) as the sole registered Noteholder and shall have no obligations to the beneficial holders therein. The Registrar shall have no liability in respect of any transfers effected by the Depositary. The Registrar shall not be liable or responsible for sending transaction statements of any kind to the Depositary’s participants or the beneficial owners of the Global Notes, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records of the Depositary or its participants with respect to such Global Notes.

v.The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such owners and the Depositary and/or its participants.

vi.No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Note held on its behalf by the Depositary shall have any rights with respect to such Global Note, and such Depositary may be treated by
A-11


the Company and any agent of the Company as the owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Neither the Company nor any agent of the Company will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company or any agent of the Company from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as holder of any Senior Note.]3

(c)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest shall accrue, at the rate at which interest accrues on the principal of this Senior Note, on any amount of principal or interest on this Senior Note not paid when due. All payments on this Senior Note shall be applied first against interest due hereunder; and then against principal due hereunder. The Noteholder acknowledges and agrees that the payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Senior Note and all interest hereon shall be pari passu in right of payment and in all other respects to the other Senior Notes. In the event that the Noteholder receives payments in excess of its pro rata share of the Company’s payments to the Noteholders of all of the Senior Notes, then the Noteholder shall hold in trust all such excess payments for the benefit of the holders of the other Senior Notes and shall pay such amounts held in trust to such other Noteholders upon demand by such Noteholders.

11.Form of Payment. Payments of principal of and interest on this Senior Note will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment are legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

20.Waiver and Consent.

(a)    Any consent or waiver given by the Noteholder will be conclusive and binding upon the Noteholder and upon all future holders of this Senior Note and of any Senior Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Senior Note.

(b)    No delay or omission of the Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.

(c)    Any insured depository institution which will be a Noteholder or which otherwise will have any beneficial ownership interest in this Senior Note will, by its acceptance of this Senior Note (or beneficial interest therein), be deemed to have waived any right of offset with respect to the indebtedness evidenced thereby.

21.Further Sales. The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of the Noteholder, create and sell additional notes having the same terms and conditions of this Senior Note in all respects (except for the issue date, issue price and initial Interest Payment Date) so that such additional notes would form a single series with the Senior Notes and rank equally and ratably with the Senior Notes or would form a new series.

RISK FACTORS

The following paragraphs describe what we believe are the material risks of an investment in the 8.75% Fixed Rate Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”) being issued by Green Dot Corporation (the “Company”). We may face other risks as well, which we have not anticipated. The risk factors listed below are not intended to represent a complete list of the general or specific risks that may affect the Senior Notes, us, or our subsidiaries, including our wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Green Dot Bank (the “Bank”). The following risks only represent typical risks that may impact an investment in the Senior Notes. In evaluating an investment in any of our securities, investors should consider carefully, among other things, the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and such other risk factors as the Company may disclose in other reports and statements filed with or furnished to the SEC. The order of these risk factors does not reflect their relative importance or likelihood of occurrence. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Senior Notes.

Risks Related to the Senior Notes

The Senior Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The Senior Notes have not been registered with the SEC under the Securities Act. The Senior Notes are being offered and sold in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided in Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Senior Notes may not be offered or sold absent registration with the SEC or a valid exemption under the Securities Act and are subject to certain transfer restrictions set forth in the Senior Notes.

Your ability to transfer the Senior Notes may be limited by the absence of an active trading market, and there is no assurance that any active trading market will develop for the Senior Notes.

There is no established public market for the Senior Notes, and we cannot assure you that an active trading market for the Senior Notes will develop. We do not intend to apply for listing the Senior Notes on any securities exchange, and we cannot assure you as to the development or liquidity of any trading market for the Senior Notes. If no active trading market develops, you may not be able to resell the Senior Notes at their fair market value or at all. The liquidity of any market for the Senior Notes will depend on a number of factors, including:

the number of holders of the Senior Notes;
our operating performance and financial condition;
the market for similar securities;
the interest of securities dealers in making a market in the Senior Notes; and
prevailing interest rates.

We cannot assure you that the market, if any, for the Senior Notes will be free from disruptions or that any disruptions may not adversely affect the prices at which you may sell your Senior Notes. Therefore, we cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your Senior Notes at a particular time or that the price that you receive when you sell will be favorable.


C-1


The Senior Notes may be redeemed at our option, and you may not be able to reinvest the proceeds in a comparable security.

We may, at our option, redeem the Senior Notes at the applicable times and at the applicable redemption price described in the Senior Notes. We may choose to redeem the Senior Notes at times when prevailing interest rates are relatively low and you may not be able to reinvest the proceeds you receive from the redemption in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on your Senior Notes being redeemed.

As a holder of Senior Notes, you will not be entitled to any rights with respect to our capital stock.

If you hold Senior Notes, you will not be entitled to any rights with respect to our capital stock (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on our capital stock) by virtue of holding Senior Notes.

As a holder of Senior Notes, you will have no say over our management and affairs.

Our officers and directors will make all decisions with respect to our management. If you hold Senior Notes, you will not be entitled to any rights or power to take part in our management by virtue of holding Senior Notes. Prospective investors will be entirely reliant on our officers and directors to effectively manage our business so that we may meet our debt obligations when they become due.

The Senior Notes may be issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Senior Notes may be issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such case, holders subject to U.S. federal income taxation, whether on the cash or accrual method of tax accounting, generally would be required to include any amounts representing original issue discount in gross income (as ordinary income) as the original issue discount accrues on a constant yield to maturity basis, in advance of the receipt of cash payments to which such income is attributable.

Your right to receive payments on the Senior Notes is effectively subordinated to those lenders who have a security interest in our assets.

The Senior Notes will not be secured by any of our assets. As a result, the Senior Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. We currently have a $100.0 million revolving facility secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, of which $62.0 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2024, and we may incur additional indebtedness from time to time that is secured by all or substantially all of our assets. If we are declared bankrupt or insolvent, or if we default under such secured indebtedness, the lenders could declare all of the funds borrowed thereunder, together with accrued interest, immediately due and payable. If we were unable to repay such indebtedness, the lenders could foreclose on the pledged assets to the exclusion of holders of the Senior Notes, even if an event of default exists under the Senior Notes. In any such event, because the Senior Notes are not secured by any of our assets, it is possible that there would be no assets remaining from which your claims could be satisfied or, if any assets remained, they might be insufficient to satisfy your claims fully.

Your right to receive payments on the Senior Notes is structurally subordinated to indebtedness of the Bank and our other subsidiaries.

The Senior Notes will be our obligations only and are not obligations of, or deposits in, the Bank or its other subsidiaries. The Senior Notes are not insured by any government or private agency. Because we are a holding company, our rights and the rights of our creditors, including the holders of the Senior
C-2


Notes, to participate in any distribution of the assets of the Bank or our other subsidiaries, upon a liquidation, reorganization, or insolvency of the Bank or our other subsidiaries (and the consequent right of the holders of the Senior Notes to participate in those assets) will be subject to the claims of the creditors of the Bank or our other subsidiaries (including depositors in our subsidiaries). If we are a creditor of the Bank or its other subsidiaries, our claims would be subject to any prior security interest in the assets of the Bank or our other subsidiaries and any indebtedness of our subsidiaries senior to our indebtedness.

The Senior Notes are also effectively subordinated to all of the liabilities of the Bank or our other subsidiaries, to the extent of their assets, since they are separate and distinct legal entities with no obligation to pay any amounts due under our indebtedness, including the Senior Notes, or to make any funds available to make payments on the Senior Notes, whether by paying dividends or otherwise.

We will have increased debt service obligations upon issuance of the Senior Notes.

Upon issuance of the Senior Notes, we will have incurred additional debt service obligations in addition to normal operating expenses and planned capital expenditures. Our increased level of indebtedness may have several important effects on our future operations, including, without limitation, a portion of our cash flow must be dedicated to the payment of interest and principal on the Senior Notes, reducing funds available for distribution to shareholders and limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate and other purposes. Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and to reduce our total indebtedness will be dependent upon the future performance of the Company, as well as the Bank and its ability to pay dividends to us, which will be subject to regulatory restrictions, general economic, industry and competitive conditions and to financial, business and other factors affecting us and the Bank, many of which are beyond our control.

We cannot assure you that the Company and the Bank will be able to continue to generate cash flow at or above its current level and that we will be able to pay principal and interest on its existing indebtedness as well as the Senior Notes as it becomes due.

We will be able to incur additional debt, which could result in a further increase of our leverage and thereby have an adverse effect on our ability to pay our obligations under the Senior Notes.

The terms of the Senior Notes do not and will not prohibit us from incurring additional debt. We may seek to raise additional capital in the form of debt in the future. If we do incur more debt, the related risks that we would face with an increase in leverage could result in an adverse effect on our ability to pay our obligations under the Senior Notes.

Regulatory guidelines may restrict our ability to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Senior Notes.

The Company is a financial holding company with no material activities other than the provision of funds to our subsidiaries, including the Bank, in the ordinary course of business. One source of funds to pay dividends on our capital stock and to service any of our debt obligations, including the Senior Notes, other than further issuances of securities, include dividends received from the Bank. The Bank is not obligated to make dividend or other payments to us, and any payments to us would depend on the earnings or financial condition of the Bank, various business considerations, and may also require prior regulatory approval.

Moreover, pursuant to federal law and regulations promulgated by the Federal Reserve, a financial holding company is required to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to each of its
C-3


banking subsidiaries and commit resources to their support, including the guarantee of capital plans of an undercapitalized bank subsidiary. Such support may be required at times when a holding company may not otherwise be inclined or able to provide it. As a result of the foregoing, we may be unable to pay the principal of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Senior Notes as those obligations become due.

Government regulation may affect the priority of the Senior Notes in the case of a bankruptcy or liquidation.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) created a new resolution regime known as the “orderly liquidation authority,” which may apply to us as a financial holding company. Under the orderly liquidation authority, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) may be appointed as receiver for an entity for purposes of liquidating the entity if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that the entity is in severe financial distress.

If the FDIC is appointed as receiver under the orderly liquidation authority, then the Dodd-Frank Act, rather than applicable insolvency laws, would determine the powers of the receiver, and the rights and obligations of creditors and other parties who have dealt with the institution. There are substantial differences in the rights of creditors under the orderly liquidation authority compared to those under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, including the right of the FDIC to disregard the strict priority of creditor claims in some circumstances, the use of an administrative claims procedure to determine creditors’ claims (as opposed to the judicial procedure utilized in bankruptcy proceedings) and the right of the FDIC to transfer claims to a “bridge” entity. As a consequence of the rights of the FDIC under the orderly liquidation authority, the holders of the Senior Notes may be fully subordinated to interests held by the U.S. government if we enter into a receivership, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding. While the FDIC has issued regulations to implement the orderly liquidation authority, not all aspects of how the FDIC might exercise this authority are known and additional rulemakings are likely. Further, it is uncertain how the FDIC might exercise its discretion under the orderly liquidation authority in a particular case.

Holders of the Senior Notes are not protected in the event of a material adverse change in our financial condition or results of operations, and there is limited covenant protection in the Senior Notes.

The covenants in the Senior Notes are limited and do not protect holders of the Senior Notes in the event of a material adverse change in our financial condition or results of operations. For example, the Senior Notes do not contain any covenants regarding financial ratios or specified levels of liquidity to which we must adhere and do not contain any provisions which restrict us from incurring, assuming or becoming liable with respect to any indebtedness or other obligations, whether secured or unsecured, including indebtedness which will rank senior to the Senior Notes. Therefore, neither the covenants nor the other provisions of the Senior Notes should be a significant factor in evaluating whether we will be able to comply or will comply with our obligations under the Senior Notes.

Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of an investment in the Senior Notes.

Our credit ratings are an assessment of our ability to pay our obligations as they become due. Consequently, real or anticipated changes in our credit ratings will generally affect the market value of the Senior Notes. Our credit ratings, however, may not reflect the potential risks related to the market or other factors on the value of the Senior Notes. Furthermore, because your return on the Senior Notes depends upon factors in addition to our ability to pay our obligations, an improvement in our credit ratings will not necessarily reduce the other investment risks related to the Senior Notes. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be revised or withdrawn by the rating agency at any time.

C-4


Changes in our credit ratings may affect the value of the Senior Notes.

There is no assurance that a rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not be suspended, lowered or withdrawn by the relevant rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances in the future so warrant. In the event that a rating assigned to the Senior Notes or to us is subsequently suspended, lowered or withdrawn for any reason, the market value of the Senior Notes is likely to be adversely affected.

The Senior Notes are not an insured deposit.

Your investment in the Senior Notes will not be a bank deposit and would not be insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Your investment will be subject to investment risk, and you must be capable of bearing the loss of your entire investment.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

We will have broad discretion in determining how the proceeds of the offering will be used. While our board of directors believes the flexibility in application of the net proceeds is prudent, this broad discretion entails increased risks to the investors in this offering, including that net proceeds may not be used effectively. Investors in this offering have no current basis to evaluate the possible merits or risks of any application of the net proceeds of this offering.
