(xiii) Early Redemption Solely for Tax Reasons. If as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or treaties (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of any Taxing Jurisdiction, or any amendment to or change in an official interpretation, administration or application of such laws, treaties, rules, or regulations (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment or change in official position becomes effective on or after the issue date, or, with respect to a successor, after the date a successor assumes the obligations under the Notes or the note guarantees, the Company or Suzano or a successor have or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in excess of the Additional Amounts that the Company or Suzano would be obligated to pay if payments were subject to withholding or deduction at a rate of 15% (or at a rate of 25% in case the holder of the Notes is resident in a tax haven jurisdiction, i.e., countries which do not impose any income tax or which impose it at a maximum rate lower than 20% or where the laws impose restrictions on the disclosure of ownership composition or securities ownership) as a result of the taxes, duties, assessments and other governmental charges described above (the “Minimum Withholding Level”), then the Company may, at its option, redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with interest and Additional Amounts accrued to the date fixed for redemption, upon publication of irrevocable notice not less than 15 days nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. No notice of such redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would, but for such redemption, be obligated to pay the Additional Amounts above the Minimum Withholding Level, were a payment then due. The Company shall not have the right to so redeem the Notes in the event it becomes obliged to pay Additional Amounts which are less than the Additional Amounts payable at the Minimum Withholding Level. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not have the right to so redeem the Notes unless: (i) it has taken measures it considers reasonable to avoid the obligation to pay Additional Amounts; and (ii) it has complied with all applicable regulations to legally effect such redemption; provided, however, that for this purpose reasonable measures shall not include any change in the Company’s, Suzano’s or any successor’s jurisdiction of incorporation or organization or location of each of their principal executive or registered office.

In the event that the Company elects to so redeem the Notes, it will deliver to the Trustee: (i) a certificate, signed in the name of the Company by two of its directors or by its attorney in fact in accordance with its articles of association, stating that the Company is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to their terms and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the condition or conditions precedent to the right of the Company to so redeem have occurred or been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel (as provided for in the Indenture) to the effect that the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in excess of the Additional Amounts payable at the Minimum Withholding Level as a result of the change or amendment and that all governmental approvals necessary for the Issuer to effect the redemption have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

(xiv) Conversion: The Notes will not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, any other securities.

(xv) Defeasance: The provisions of Sections 13.01, 13.02 and 13.03 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

(xvi) Covenants: Except as set forth in Section 2.05, the Notes will be subject to the covenants set forth in Article 10 of the Base Indenture.

Reverse of Global Security

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of January 24, 2020, as supplemented with respect to the Securities (herein called the “Indenture” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company, the Guarantor and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any other successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof.

Prior to , 20 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Securities in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a redemption price based on a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, we may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed to such redemption date. For purposes of optional redemption, interest will be calculated after the Interest Rate Step Up Date at the Subsequent Rate of Interest, unless the Sustainability Performance Target has been satisfied and the Issuer has provided Satisfaction Notification to the Trustee in writing on the Notification Date.

The Company may redeem the Securities, in whole but not in part, at 100% of its principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts (as defined below), if any, at any time upon the occurrence of specified events relating to Brazilian, Austrian or other relevant jurisdictions’ tax laws.

Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities of this series, not less than 15 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, all as provided in the Indenture. Such notice may at the Company’s option be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, and it may be rescinded or the applicable redemption date delayed in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the applicable redemption date. Any conditions precedent shall be described in such notice.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness on this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case, upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.)

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

If any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes, assessments or other governmental charges of Brazil or Austria (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) shall at any time be required by Brazil or Austria (or any such political subdivision or taxing authority) in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Company under the Securities, the Company will pay to the Holder of this Security such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to such Holder of such Security who, with respect to any such tax, assessment or other governmental charge, is not resident in Brazil or Austria, after such deduction or withholding, shall be not less than the amounts specified in such Security to which such Holder is entitled (“Additional Amounts”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts for or on account of:

(d) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for (i) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder or the beneficial owner of the Security of such series (or between a fiduciary, settler, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation) and Brazil or Austria or any political subdivision or territory or possession thereof or area subject to its jurisdiction other than the mere holding of a Security or receipt of payment in respect thereto, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settler, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein or (ii) the presentation of a Security of such series (where presentation is required) for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

(e) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(f) any amount required to be deducted or withheld by any Paying Agent from a payment on or in respect of the Security, if such payment can be made without such deduction or withholding by any other Paying Agent and we duly provide for such other Paying Agent to make such payment;

(g) withholding for any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments on the Security;

(h) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by the Holder or the beneficial owner of the Security of such series with a request of the Company addressed to the Holder (i) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (ii) to make any declaration or other similar claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirements, which, in the case of (i) or (ii), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of Brazil or Austria as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(f) where the Holder would have been able to avoid the tax, levy, deduction or other governmental charge by taking reasonable measures available to such Holder; or

(g) any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) above;

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment in respect of any Security to any Holder or beneficial owner who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of Brazil or Austria (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been the Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, of such Security.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Security of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, this Security or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series shall have made written request, and offered indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal of the Outstanding Securities of this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal (and premium, if any), interest or any Additional Amount on this Security on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert or exchange this Security as provided in the Indenture.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
