The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the

-5-

average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified Person as of any date, the capital stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the Board of Directors or similar governing body of such Person.

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

Section 2.01 Designation and Principal Amount. The Notes may be issued from time to time upon written order of the Company for the authentication and delivery of such Notes pursuant to Section 303 of the Base Indenture. There is hereby authorized a series of Securities designated as the 2.800% Senior Notes due 2051, limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $1,000,000,000 (except upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 306, 906 or 1107 of the Base Indenture).

The Company may create and issue additional Notes having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the Issue Date, issue price and, to the extent applicable, the payment of interest accruing prior to the Issue Date of such additional Notes or the first payment of interest following the Issue Date), so that such additional Notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the initial Notes and will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the original Notes, provided that if such additional Notes are not fungible with the original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes will have separate CUSIP and ISIN numbers.

Section 2.02 Maturity. The date upon which the Notes shall become due and payable at final maturity, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, is December 10, 2051 (the “Maturity Date”).

Section 2.03 Form, Payment and Appointment. Except as provided in Section 2.04, the Notes shall be issued in fully registered, certificated form. Principal of and interest on the Notes will be payable, the transfer of the Notes will be registrable, and the Notes will be exchangeable for Notes of a like aggregate principal amount, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose located at 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, which shall initially be the corporate trust agency of the Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Person entitled to payment; provided, that the Paying Agent shall have received written notice of such account designation at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such payment (subject to surrender of the relevant Note in the case of a payment of interest on a Redemption Date or the Maturity Date).

-6-

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, but the Company may require payment from the applicable Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

The Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes shall initially be the Trustee.

Unless and until such Global Note is exchanged for Notes in certificated form, such Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on the Notes shall be made to the Paying Agent, which in turn shall make payment with respect to the Notes to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary.

Section 2.05 Interest on the Notes.

(a) Interest payable on any Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date or Redemption Date, shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the Issue Date, if no interest has previously been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date or, if applicable, Redemption Date, as the case may be. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Section 2.06 Payment on a Day other than a Business Day. In the event that any Interest Payment Date with respect to the Notes or the Maturity Date or a Redemption Date for the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the related payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and no additional interest will accrue or otherwise accumulate on the amount payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as applicable). Interest due on the Maturity Date or a Redemption Date (in each case, whether or not an Interest Payment Date) of any Notes will be paid to the Person to whom principal of such Notes is payable.

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION OF THE NOTES

Section 3.01 Optional Redemption by Company.

(a) Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(i)(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and

(ii)100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

(b) On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

(c) The Company will cause the notice of any redemption to be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. Any notice may, at the discretion of the Company be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent. In that case, the notice shall state the nature of such condition precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an equity offering, a financing, or other corporate transaction, provided that if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be postponed until up to 60 days following the notice of redemption, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date (including as it may be postponed). In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary (or another Depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. The price for any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the applicable Redemption Date or at such later time as is then permitted by the rules of the Depositary applicable to the Notes (if then registered as Global Notes); provided, that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent an amount sufficient to pay the applicable redemption price by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such redemption price is to be paid.

-8-

(d) If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all of the Notes (or a portion thereof) to be redeemed on the applicable Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent on or before such Redemption Date as provided herein, then on and after such Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (or such portion thereof) called for redemption.

(e) The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate any redemption price or any component thereof in respect of the Notes, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate delivered by the Company that specifies any redemption price.

Section 3.02 Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes in full as described in Section 3.01, Holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of their Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in the Notes. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or, at the Company’s option, prior to the date of the consummation of any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company will be required to mail a notice to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by the Notes and described in such notice. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of the consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.02 or the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflicts.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will be required, to the extent lawful, to:

(i)accept for payment all Notes, or portions of such Notes, properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii)deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes, or portions of such Notes, properly tendered; and

-9-

(iii)deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes, or portions of such Notes, being repurchased.

(c) The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(d) The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether a Change of Control Triggering Event or any component thereof has occurred or is continuing.

REVERSE OF NOTE

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Initial Base Indenture, dated as of December 11, 2007 (herein called the “Initial Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as amended by a Second Supplemental Indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of July 1, 2019, between the Company and the Trustee, and as further amended by a Third Supplemental Indenture (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of March 30, 2020, between the Company and the Trustee (the Initial Base Indenture, as so amended and supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture, collectively, the “Base Indenture”), as further amended by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 10, 2021 (herein called the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument, and together with the Base Indenture, herein called 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 Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,000,000,000. The Notes are unsecured general obligations of the Company.

1. Optional Redemption

Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(ii)100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

The Company will cause the notice of any redemption to be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. Any notice may, at the discretion of the Company be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent. In that case, the notice shall state the nature of such condition precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of an equity offering, a financing, or other corporate transaction, provided that if such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be postponed until up to 60 days following the notice of redemption, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date (including as it may be postponed). In the case of a

A-5

partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. The price for any redemption pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture and this Section 1 of this Note shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the applicable Redemption Date or at such later time as is then permitted by the rules of the Depositary applicable to the Notes (if then registered as Global Notes); provided, that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent an amount sufficient to pay the applicable redemption price by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such redemption price is to be paid.

If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all of the Notes (or a portion thereof) to be redeemed on the applicable Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent on or before such Redemption Date as provided herein and in the Indenture, then on and after such Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (or such portion thereof) called for redemption.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any obligation to calculate any redemption price or any component thereof in respect of the Notes, and the Trustee and each Paying Agent shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Officer’s Certificate delivered by the Company that specifies any redemption price.

2. No Other Redemption

Except as set forth in Section 1 of this Note and in Article 3 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the Company may not redeem the Notes prior to the Maturity Date.

3. Change of Control Triggering Event

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Notes have become redeemable as described in Section 3.01 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, Holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of their Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, or, at the Company’s option, prior to the date of the consummation of any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company will be required to mail a notice to Holders of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required

A-6

by the Indenture and described in such notice. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of the consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 3.02 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture and this Section 3 of this Note by virtue of such conflicts. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will be required, to the extent lawful, to:

(i)accept for payment all of the Notes, or portions of the Notes, properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii)deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all of the Notes, or portions of the Notes, properly tendered; and

(iii)deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes, or portions of Notes, being repurchased.

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

In addition, the Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether a Change of Control Triggering Event or any component thereof has occurred or is continuing.

4. No Sinking Fund

The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

5. Defeasance and Discharge

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and discharge and for defeasance at any time of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

A-7

6. Events of Default

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

7. Modification and Waiver

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 Notes 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 Notes at the time Outstanding to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, 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 Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note.

8. Remedies

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note 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 Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

9. Transfer and Exchange

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his

A-8

attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
