[Reverse of 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 February 8, 2001 (herein called the “Base Indenture”, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Base Indenture), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 13, 2005, between the Company and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), as further amended and supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 14, 2008, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), as further amended and supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 22, 2011 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”), as further amended and supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 2, 2013 between the Company, the Trustee and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as paying agent, and as further amended and supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 3, 2015 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”), (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture, together with the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”). 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 a series designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000.

The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ and not more than 60 days’ notice by mail, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, from time to time. If the Securities of this series are redeemed before the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date of the Securities of this series, the Securities shall be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Securities then outstanding to be redeemed, and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on an annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points (0.20%), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. If the Securities of this series are redeemed on or after the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date of the Securities of this series, the Securities may be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. Interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Date referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.

For purposes of the redemption provisions, the following terms are applicable:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” shall mean the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Securities.

“Comparable Treasury Price” shall mean, with respect to any Redemption Date: (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; (ii) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or (iii) if only one such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

“Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means: (i) Citigroup Global Markets Inc., X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated (or their respective affiliates that are Primary Treasury Dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) one other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to actual or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price of such Redemption Date.

If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee pro rata or by lot, but consistent with any applicable listing standards. In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination for the Securities) shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Securities as described above, the Company shall be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Securities to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Securities on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities repurchased to the date of repurchase (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 shall mail to Holders of the Securities, and furnish the Trustee with a copy thereof, a notice describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Securities on the date specified in the notice, which date shall 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”), setting forth the instructions determined by the Company, consistent with the provisions of Section 3.3 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities purchased, and stating that a Holder may elect to have such Securities purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” appearing below, or a comparable form, together with any other procedures that a Holder must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or effect withdrawal of such acceptance.

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 payment date specified in the notice.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall be required, to the extent lawful: (a) to accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (b) to deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities properly tendered; and (c) to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being repurchased.

The Company shall not be required to make the Change of Control Offer 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 Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company shall not repurchase any Securities 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 Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 Securities 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 Securities, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Indenture or the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities by virtue of any such conflicts.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions, the following terms are applicable:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” as the term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than the Company or one of its subsidiaries) becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s Voting Stock or other Voting Stock into which the Company’s Voting Stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; (ii) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or more series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more Persons (other than the Company or one of its subsidiaries); or (iii) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors are not Continuing Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction shall not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no Person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means, with respect to the Securities, the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Rating Event.

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional rating agency or rating agencies selected by the Company.

“Moody’s” means Xxxxx’x Investors Service Inc.

“Person” has the meaning set forth in the Indenture and includes a “person” or “group” as these terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

“Rating Agencies” means (i) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (ii) if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Securities or fails to make a rating of the Securities publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company (as certified by a Board Resolution) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

“Rating Event” means the rating on the Securities is lowered by each of the Rating Agencies and the Securities are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period (which 60-day period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Securities is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) after the earlier of: (i) the occurrence of a Change of Control; and (ii) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or the Company’s intention to effect a Change of Control; provided, however, that a Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Rating Event).

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx Companies, Inc.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) 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 of such person

The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security 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 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.
