Section 3.02.Definitions. The following definitions shall be applicable to Sections 3.03 and 3.04 below:

“Attributable Debt” means, at the time of determination as to any lease, the present value (discounted at the actual rate, if stated, or, if no rate is stated, the implicit rate of interest of such lease transaction as determined by the Company’s Chairman, President or any Vice Chairman, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Company’s Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer), calculated using the interval of scheduled rental payments under such lease, of the obligation of the lessee for net rental payments during the remaining term of such lease (excluding any subsequent renewal or other extension options held by the lessee). The term “net rental payments” means, with respect to any lease for any period, the sum of the rental and other payments required to be paid in such period by the lessee thereunder, but not including, however, any amounts required to be paid by such lessee (whether or not designated as rental or additional rental) on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates, indemnities or similar charges required to be paid by such lessee thereunder or any amounts required to be paid by such lessee thereunder contingent upon the amount of sales, earnings or profits or of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates, indemnities or similar charges; provided, however, that, in the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty in an amount which is less than the total discounted net rental payments required to be paid from the later of the first date upon which such lease may be so terminated and the date of the determination of net rental payments, “net rental payments” shall include the then current amount of such penalty from the later of such two dates, and shall exclude the rental payments relating to the remaining period of the lease commencing with the later of such two dates.

“Consolidated Tangible Assets” means, on the date of determination, total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries, in each case as set forth on the most recently available consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

“Manufacturing Subsidiary” means any Subsidiary (A) substantially all the property of which is located within the continental United States of America, (B) which owns a Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property and (C) in which the Company’s investment, direct or indirect and whether in the form of equity, debt, advances or otherwise, is in excess of $2,500,000,000 as shown on the consolidated books of the Company as of the end of the fiscal year immediately preceding the date of determination; provided, however, that “Manufacturing Subsidiary” shall not include any Subsidiary which is principally engaged in leasing or in financing installment receivables or otherwise providing financial or insurance services to the Company or others or which is principally engaged in financing the Company’s operations outside the continental United States of America.

“Mortgage” means any mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, conditional sale or other title retention agreement or other similar encumbrance.

“Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property” means all real property located within the continental United States of America and constituting part of any manufacturing plant or facility owned and operated by the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary, together with such manufacturing plant or facility (including all plumbing, electrical, ventilating, heating, cooling, lighting and other utility systems, ducts and pipes attached to or constituting a part thereof, but excluding all trade fixtures (unless such trade fixtures are attached to the manufacturing plant or facility in a manner that does not permit removal therefrom without causing substantial damage thereto), business machinery, equipment, motorized vehicles, tools, supplies and materials, security systems, cameras, inventory and other personal property and materials), unless, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, such manufacturing plant or facility is not of material importance to the total business conducted by the Company and its consolidated affiliates as an entity.

“Subsidiary” means any corporation of which at least a majority of the outstanding stock having by the terms thereof ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors of such corporation (irrespective of whether or not at the time stock of any other class or classes of such corporation shall have or might have voting power by reason of the happening of any contingency) is at the time owned by the Company, or by one or more Subsidiaries, or by the Company and one or more Subsidiaries.

Section 3.03.Limitation on Liens. For the benefit of the Notes, the Company will not, nor will the Company permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary to, issue or assume any Debt secured by a Mortgage upon any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property of the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary or upon any shares of stock or indebtedness of any Manufacturing Subsidiary (whether such Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property, shares of stock or indebtedness are now owned or hereafter acquired) without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Debt that the Notes (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness of the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes and then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Debt, unless the aggregate amount of Debt issued or assumed and so secured by Mortgages, together with all other Debt of the Company and its Manufacturing Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be

subject to the foregoing restrictions, but not including Debt permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (vii) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time exceed 15% of the Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Company.

(vi)Mortgages existing on September 27, 2013; or

(vii)any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) to (vi) or in this clause (vii); provided, however, that the principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or a part of the property which secured the Mortgage so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

Section 3.04.Limitation on Sales and Lease-Backs. For the benefit of the Notes, the Company will not, nor will the Company permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any person providing for the leasing by the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary of any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property owned by the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary on September 27, 2013 (except for temporary leases for a term of not more than five years and except for leases between the Company and a Manufacturing Subsidiary or between Manufacturing

Subsidiaries), which property has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary to such person, unless either:

(i)the Company or such Manufacturing Subsidiary would be entitled, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03 above, to issue, assume, extend, renew or replace Debt secured by a Mortgage upon such property at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt in respect of such arrangement without equally and ratably securing the Notes; provided, however, that from and after the date on which such arrangement becomes effective the Attributable Debt in respect of such arrangement shall be deemed for all purposes under Section 3.03 above and this Section 3.04 to be Debt subject to the provisions of Section 3.03 above (which provisions include the exceptions set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 3.03 above); or

(ii)the Company shall apply an amount in cash equal to the Attributable Debt in respect of such arrangement within 180 days of the effective date of any such arrangement to either (or a combination) of (i) the retirement (other than any mandatory retirement or by way of payment at maturity) of Debt of ours or any Manufacturing Subsidiary (other than Debt owned by the Company or any Manufacturing Subsidiary) which by its terms matures at or is extendible or renewable at the option of the obligor to a date more than twelve months after the date of the creation of such Debt, or (ii) the purchase, construction or development by the Company or a Manufacturing Subsidiary of other comparable property.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

1. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company (the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under the Indenture, dated as of September 27, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), and the First Supplemental Indenture relating to the Notes dated as of September 27, 2013 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any 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 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, such series initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,500,000,000; provided that the Company may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of any Holder, issue additional Notes of this series.

All terms which are used but not defined in this Note and which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

2. The Notes shall be redeemable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, on at least 30 days’ but not more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed to the registered email or physical address of each Holder of Notes to be redeemed (the “Redemption Date”), at a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Company, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of payments of interest accrued as of the applicable redemption date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points.

The Redemption Price for any Notes redeemed pursuant to this Section 2 shall include accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of such Notes up to, but not including, the Redemption Date. The Redemption Price will be calculated assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the applicable Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of the Notes called for redemption.

The provisions of Article Eleven of the Indenture shall apply to any redemption of the Notes.

For purposes of this Section 2, the following terms shall have the following specified meanings:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by a Reference Treasury Dealer as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary market practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, as determined by the Company, (A) the average of the six Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations or (B) if we obtain fewer than six Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations so received.

A-1-7

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC, Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary United States Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Company will substitute therefor another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer and (ii) two other nationally recognized investment banking firms that are Primary Treasury Dealers as 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 such Reference Treasury Dealer as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated as of the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

3. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, unless the provisions of Article Eight of the Indenture are complied with.

4. 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 under the Indenture and the Notes at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture also contain provisions (including the provisions in Section 1006 of the Indenture and Section 2.10 of the Supplemental Indenture) permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate 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 the Notes and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holders of Notes shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holders and upon all future Holders of the Notes and of any Notes 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.

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

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holders of the Notes shall not have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder or hereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture are met. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of the Notes for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

A-1-8

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 interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

6. The Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture contain provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of the Notes or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to such Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

7. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein and in the Supplemental Indenture (including the limitations in Section 311 of the Indenture and Section 4.02 of the Supplemental Indenture), 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 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 attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes and of like tenor, 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 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

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 neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

[This Note is a Global Security and is subject to the provisions of the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture relating to Global Securities, including the limitations in Section 311 of the Indenture and Section 4.02 of the Supplemental Indenture on transfers and exchanges of Global Securities.]⁴

8. [Each Holder of a Note, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement dated September 27, 2013, between the Company and the Initial Purchasers, including the obligations of the Holders with respect to the use of any registration statement or prospectus as provided for therein and the indemnification of the Company to the extent provided therein.]⁵
