Interest shall be paid semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date; provided that interest payable at the Stated Maturity of principal or on a redemption date as provided herein will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person or Persons in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee (in accordance with Section 3.08 of the Base Indenture), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Notes in accordance with Section 3.08 of the Base Indenture, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by any such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Base Indenture.

Payment of the principal and interest on the Notes shall be made at the office of the Paying Agent in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, with any such payment that is due at the Stated Maturity of any Notes, upon redemption or repurchase being made upon surrender of such Notes to the Paying Agent. Payments of interest (including interest on any Interest Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable, at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Register or (ii) by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as such place and account may be designated in writing to the Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the next scheduled date for payment by the Person entitled thereto.

Business Day, then payment of the principal and interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or payment in respect of any such delay), in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable.

Section 104. Denominations. The Notes may be issued in denominations of $2,000, or any greater integral multiple of $1,000.

Section 105. Global Securities. The Notes offered and sold to QIBs in transactions not involving a public offering, exempt from registration under the Securities Act, intended to be allowed to be resold in reliance on Rule 144A will be initially issued in the form of one or more Global Securities (the “Rule 144A Global Security”), and the Notes offered and sold in offshore transactions to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S will be initially issued in the form of one or more Global Securities (the “Regulation S Global Security”), in each case registered in the name of the Depositary (which shall be The Depository Trust Company, or the “Depositary”) or its nominee. Except under the limited circumstances described below, Notes represented by such Global Securities will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise be issuable as, Notes in definitive form registered in names other than the Depositary or its nominee. The Global Securities described above may not be transferred except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or its nominee.

Owners of beneficial interests in such a Global Security will not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture, and no Global Security representing a Note shall be exchangeable, except for another Global Security of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or to a successor Depositary or its nominee or except as described below. The rights of Holders of such Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary.

A Global Security shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in the names of persons other than the Depositary or its nominee (including notes issued in definitive form) only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Security and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of such notification, or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as such Depositary and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after it becomes aware of such cessation, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion, and subject to the procedures of the Depositary, determines that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable, in which case Notes in definitive form will be printed and delivered to the Depositary, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct.

The rules and procedures of DTC will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities and the provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear”, and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream, will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities that are held by members of, or direct or indirect participants in the Depositary (“Participant”), holding such interests through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Section 106. Redemption. At any time prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i)

100.000% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding to be so redeemed, or

(ii)

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) from the redemption date to the Par Call Date, in each case discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points,

plus, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (if any) on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption.

In addition, the Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (if any) on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption.

Notice of redemption will be delivered at least ten (10) days (or, for the avoidance of doubt, such shorter period as is specified solely in respect of a Special Mandatory Redemption) but not more than sixty (60) days before the redemption date to each Holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the Notes will (other than in respect of a Special Mandatory Redemption, notice of which shall be provided in accordance with Section 107 below) be provided in accordance with Section 4.03 of the Base Indenture and will state the information required under Section 4.03(c) of the Base Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on any Notes that have been called for redemption at the redemption date. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the trustee will select the notes to be redeemed either pro rata, by lot or in such other manner as the trustee deems appropriate, subject to the procedures of DTC.

Notice of any optional redemption of the Notes may, at the Company’s discretion, be given in connection with a debt or equity offering or incurrence or other transaction (or series of related transactions), Change of Control or other event and prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof, and any such redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of the related debt or equity offering, transaction or event, as the case may be. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time (including more than sixty (60) days after the date the notice of redemption was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission) as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the redemption date or by the redemption date as so delayed, or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Company’s discretion if the Company reasonably believes that any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived. In addition, the Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

The Company may, subject to compliance with applicable law, at any time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise.

Section 107. Special Mandatory Redemption. In the event that (i) the closing of the Merger has not occurred on or prior to December 22, 2021 (provided that, if the termination date of the Merger Agreement is extended, this date will also be extended to the same extended termination date, but in no case will this date be extended beyond June 22, 2022), (ii) the Company notifies the Trustee in writing

that it will not pursue the consummation of the Merger or (iii) the Merger Agreement has been terminated without the consummation of the Merger (each, a “special mandatory redemption event”), the Company will be required to redeem the Notes in whole at a special mandatory redemption price (the “special mandatory redemption price”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest on the principal amount of the Notes from and including the Issue Date, or the most recent date to which interest has been paid on such series of Notes, whichever is later, to, but not including, the special mandatory redemption date (as defined below). Upon the occurrence of a special mandatory redemption event, the Company will promptly (but in no event later than 10 business days following such special mandatory redemption event) cause written notice to be delivered electronically or mailed, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder at its registered address (such date of notification to the Holders, the “redemption notice date”). The notice will inform Holders that the Notes will be redeemed on the third business day following the redemption notice date (such date, the “special mandatory redemption date”) and that all of the outstanding Notes will be redeemed at the special mandatory redemption price on the special mandatory redemption date automatically and without any further action by the Holders of the Notes. At or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately preceding the special mandatory redemption date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay the special mandatory redemption price for the Notes. If such deposit is made as provided above, the Notes will cease to bear interest on and after the special mandatory redemption date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on the Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the special mandatory redemption date will be payable on such Interest Payment Dates to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates in accordance with the Notes and this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 108. Interest Rate Adjustment. The interest rate payable will be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Moody’s or S&P or, if applicable, Fitch or any “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 resolution of the Company’s board of directors) as a replacement for Moody’s or S&P, as the case may be (each, a “Substitute Rating Agency”) downgrades (or downgrades and subsequently upgrades) the credit rating assigned to the Notes, in the manner described below. Each of Moody’s, S&P and any Substitute Rating Agency is an “Interest Rate Rating Agency,” and together they are “Interest Rate Rating Agencies.”

(a) If the rating assigned by Moody’s (or, if applicable, any Substitute Rating Agency) of the Notes is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes will increase such that it will equal the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance plus the percentage set forth opposite the rating in the table below (plus, if applicable, the percentage set forth opposite the rating in the table under Section 108(b) below):


Xxxxx’x Rating*	Percentage
Ba1		0.25	%
Ba2		0.50	%
Ba3		0.75	%
B1 or below		1.00	%

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

(b) If the rating assigned by S&P (or, if applicable, any Substitute Rating Agency) of a series of Notes is decreased to a rating set forth in the immediately following table, the interest rate on the Notes of such series will increase such that it will equal the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance plus the percentage set forth opposite the rating in the table below (plus, if applicable, the percentage set forth opposite the rating in the table under Section 108(a) above):


S&P Rating*	Percentage
BB+		0.25	%
BB		0.50	%
BB-		0.75	%
B+ or below		1.00	%

*	Including the equivalent ratings of any Substitute Rating Agency.

If at any time the interest rate on the Notes of a series has been increased and any of the Interest Rate Rating Agencies subsequently upgrades its rating of the Notes of such series, the interest rate on the Notes of such series will be decreased such that the interest rate for the Notes of such series equals the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance plus the percentages set forth opposite the ratings from the tables above in effect immediately following the upgrade in rating. If Moody’s (or any Substitute Rating Agency) subsequently upgrades its rating of the Notes of such series to Baa3 (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher, and S&P (or any Substitute Rating Agency) upgrades its rating to BBB- (or its equivalent, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher, the interest rate on the Notes of such series will be decreased to the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance (and if one such upgrade occurs and the other does not, the interest rate on the Notes of such series will be decreased so that it does not reflect any increase attributable to the upgrading Interest Rate Rating Agency). In addition, the interest rates on the Notes of a series will permanently cease to be subject to any adjustment described above (notwithstanding any subsequent downgrade in the ratings by any of the Interest Rate Rating Agencies) if the Notes of such series become rated Baa1 and BBB+ (or, in either case, the equivalent thereof, in the case of a Substitute Rating Agency) or higher by Moody’s and S&P (or, in either case, any Substitute Rating Agency), respectively (or one of these ratings if the Notes of such series are only rated by one rating agency).

Each adjustment required by any downgrade or upgrade in a rating set forth above, whether occasioned by the action of Moody’s or S&P (or, in either case, any Substitute Rating Agency), shall be made independent of any and all other adjustments. In no event shall (1) the interest rate on the Notes of a series be reduced to below the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance or (2) the total increase in the interest rate on the Notes of such series exceed 2.00% above the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance.

No adjustments in the interest rate of the Notes of a series shall be made solely as a result of an Interest Rate Rating Agency ceasing to provide a rating on the Notes of such series. If at any time less than two Interest Rate Rating Agencies provide a rating of the Notes of such series for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a rating of the Notes of such series from a Substitute Rating Agency, if one exists, in which case, for purposes of determining any increase or decrease in the interest rate on the Notes of such series pursuant to the tables above (a) such Substitute Rating Agency will be substituted for the last Interest Rate Rating Agency to provide a rating of the Notes of such series but which has since ceased to provide such rating, (b) the relative rating scale used by such Substitute Rating Agency to assign ratings to senior unsecured debt will be determined in good faith by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company and, for purposes of determining the applicable ratings included in the applicable table above with respect to such Substitute Rating Agency, such ratings will be deemed to be the equivalent ratings used by Moody’s or S&P, as applicable, in such table and (c) the interest rate on the Notes of a series will increase or decrease, as the case may be, such that the interest rate equals the

interest rate payable on the Notes of a series on the date of their initial issuance plus the appropriate percentage, if any, set forth opposite the deemed equivalent rating from such Substitute Rating Agency in the applicable table above (taking into account the provisions of clause (b) above) (plus any applicable percentage resulting from a decreased rating by the other Interest Rate Rating Agency).

For so long as only one Interest Rate Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes of a series, any subsequent increase or decrease in the interest rate of the Notes of such series necessitated by a reduction or increase in the rating by the Interest Rate Rating Agency providing the rating shall be twice the applicable percentage set forth in the applicable table above. For so long as no Interest Rate Rating Agency provides a rating of the Notes of a series, the interest rate on the Notes of such series will increase to, or remain at, as the case may be, 2.00% above the interest rate payable on the Notes of such series on the date of their initial issuance.

Any interest rate increase or decrease described above will take effect from the first day of the interest period commencing after the date on which a rating change occurs that requires an adjustment in the interest rate. If any Interest Rate Rating Agency changes its rating of the Notes of a series more than once prior to any particular interest payment date, the last change by such agency prior to such interest payment date will control for purposes of any interest rate increase or decrease with respect to the Notes of a series described above relating to such rating agency’s action. If the interest rate payable on the Notes of a series is increased as described above, the term “interest,” as used with respect to the Notes of such series, will be deemed to include any such additional interest unless the context otherwise requires.

Section 109. Paying Agent; Registrar. Trustee shall initially serve as Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to the Notes, with the Place of Payment initially being the Corporate Trust Office. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to Holders of the Notes, and the Company or any of its subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. In acting hereunder and in connection with the Notes, the Paying Agent and Registrar shall act solely as an agent of the Company and will not thereby assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any Holder.

Section 110. Registration Default. In the event that a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, the Company shall pay additional interest (in addition to the interest otherwise due) (“Additional Interest”) to the Holder from and including the date on which any such Registration Default occurs to but excluding the date on which the Registration Defaults have ceased to be continuing at a rate of 0.25% per annum (the “Additional Interest Rate”) and with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured or otherwise cease to be continuing. Additional Interest will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each such subsequent 90-day period, up to a maximum amount of Additional Interest for all Registration Defaults of 1.00% per annum of the principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) for any period; provided, however, that, (x) if after all Registration Defaults have been cured or otherwise cease to be continuing (upon which event, no Additional Interest will continue to accrue), a different Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, Additional Interest will only accrue on Securities which are Transfer Restricted Securities.

Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to this Section 110 will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Notes and in the same manner and to the same persons as ordinary interest. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by the principal amount of the Notes and further multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30 day months), and the denominator of which is 360.

Section 111. Ranking. The Notes will be the Company’s senior unsecured indebtedness and will rank equally with each other and with all of its other senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

Section 112. Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets. Notwithstanding Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture, the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions entered into or consummated in connection therewith will be permitted under the Indenture.

Section 113. Events of Default. The term “Event of Default” as used in this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes shall mean one of the following described events:

(i)

any events described in Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture with respect to the Notes; and

(ii)

a failure by the Company to redeem the Notes following the occurrence of a Special Mandatory Redemption as required under Section 107 above.

(i)

if the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) and that the Restricted Legend is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of such Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act; or

(ii)

(iv)

the Depositary or the relevant clearance system shall make book-entry transfers among the Depositary, Euroclear or Clearstream or other relevant clearance system, as the case may be and Participants and shall receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Regulation S Global Security or Rule 144A Global Security to such Participants; and

(v)

the Participants shall have no rights under the Indenture with respect to any of the Regulation S Global Securities or Rule 144A Global Securities held on their behalf by the Depositary or the relevant clearance system , and the Depositary or Euroclear or Clearstream or other relevant clearance system, as the case may be may be treated by the Trustee and its agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the Regulation S Global Securities or Rule 144A Global Securities for all purposes whatsoever.

Section 206. Preservation of Information. The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the registration of transfer or exchange of a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) in accordance with its customary policy, and the Company will have the right to request copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to the Trustee.

In connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, each Holder agrees by its acceptance of the Notes to furnish the Registrar or the Company such certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such registration of transfer or exchange is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided that the Registrar shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a determination made by the Company with respect to) the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information.

The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to the Indenture in accordance with its customary policy. The Company shall have the right to request copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of written notice to the Registrar.

The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Security, a member of, or a participant in, the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Notes (or other security or property) under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Security).

No.:

SYNNEX CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor thereto under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, the principal sum of dollars (or such other principal amount as shall be set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Note attached hereto) on August 9, 2026, in the coin or currency of the United States, and to pay interest, semi-annually on February 9 and August 9 of each year, beginning on February 9, 2022, on said principal sum at said office or agency, in like coin or currency, at the rate per annum specified in the title of this Note, from the February 9 or the August 9, as the case may be, next preceding the date of this Note to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, unless the date hereof is a date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, in which case from the date of this Note, or unless no interest has been paid or duly provided for on this Note, in which case from August 9, 2021, until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for; provided that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Register or by wire transfer as provided in the Indenture. The interest so payable on any February 9 or August 9 shall, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the January 26 or the July 26, as the case may be, next preceding such February 9 or August 9, whether or not such day is a Business Day.

The interest rate payable on this Note will be subject to adjustments from time to time if certain Interest Rate Agencies downgrade (or downgrade and subsequently upgrade) the credit rating assigned to this Note, in the manner described in the Indenture.

The Company is a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2021, among the Company and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representative of the initial purchasers referred to therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). In the event that a Registration Default (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, the Company shall pay additional interest (in addition to the interest otherwise due) (“Additional Interest”) to the Holder from and including the date on which any such Registration Default should occur to but excluding the date on which the Registration Defaults have ceased to be continuing at a rate of 0.25% per annum (the “Additional Interest Rate”) and with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured or otherwise cease to be continuing. Additional Interest will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each such subsequent 90-day period, up to a maximum amount of Additional Interest for all Registration Defaults of 1.00% per annum of the principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) for any period; provided, however, that, (x) if after all Registration Defaults have been cured or otherwise cease to be continuing (upon which

Exhibit A-2

event, no Additional Interest will continue to accrue), a different Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, Additional Interest will only accrue on Securities which are Transfer Restricted Securities.

Any amounts of Additional Interest due will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Notes and in the same manner and to the same persons as ordinary interest. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by the principal amount of the Notes and further multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30 day months), and the denominator of which is 360.

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been manually signed by the Trustee under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof.

REVERSE OF NOTE

SYNNEX CORPORATION

1.750% Senior Note Due 2026

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 9, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Company to Citibank, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), which is supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 9, 2021 (together, with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company and the Trustee, to which the Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided. This Note is one of a series designated as the 1.750% Senior Notes due 2026 of the Company, in an original aggregate principal amount of $700,000,000; provided, however, that the Company, without notice to or consent of the Holders, may issue additional Securities of this series and thereby increase such principal amount in the future, on the same terms and conditions (except for issue date and, if applicable, the date from which interest accrues and the first Interest Payment Date). Any additional Securities shall be issued under a separate CUSIP number unless: (i) the additional notes and the outstanding notes of the original series are treated as part of the same “issue” of debt instruments for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, (ii) such additional notes have no more than a de minimis amount of original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (iii) such issuance would constitute a “qualified reopening” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful, on overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum borne by this Note. If a payment date is not a Business Day as defined in the Indenture at a Place of Payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the 1.750% Senior Notes due 2026 shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof and the interest accrued hereon, if any, may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions that provide that the Company and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of amending any provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to be affected with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in

Exhibit A-6

principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series affected by such amendment voting separately; provided that, without the consent of each Holder of the Securities of each series affected thereby, an amendment may not: (a) reduce the principal amount of such Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment or for any waiver of compliance with or Defaults under, the Indenture and consequences of such defaults; (b) reduce the interest rate of or extend the time for payment of interest or Additional Interest on any Security (other than any change to the notice periods with respect to any redemption); (c) reduce the principal or change the stated maturity date of any Security; (d) waive a Default or Event of Default with respect to the nonpayment of principal, premium or interest (except pursuant to a rescission of acceleration of the Securities by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Securities outstanding and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); (e) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may be redeemed, in each case as set forth in the applicable supplemental indenture and in Section 4.03 of the Base Indenture (other than any change to the notice periods with respect to such redemption); (f) change the currency in which the principal amount of and premium, if an, or interest or Additional Interest on any outstanding Security is denominated or payable; (g) impair the right of any Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Securities; (h) reduce the percentage of the Holders of Outstanding Securities of a series necessary to modify or amend the Indenture or to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture; or (i) modify any of the amendment and waiver provisions or any provisions of Section 6.06 or Section 14.02 of the Base Indenture relating to the waiver of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest or Additional Interest (if any) on the Securities, except to increase the required percentage to effect such action or to provide that certain other provisions may not be modified or waived without the consent of all of the Holders of the Securities affected thereby.

It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of a series of Securities at the time Outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except a Default in the payment of interest or any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series or a Default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series. Upon any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights under the Indenture, respectively; provided that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

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 in the manner, at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

The Notes will be issued initially in fully registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, and are transferable and exchangeable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture.

Exhibit A-7

At any time prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(i)

100.000% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding to be so redeemed, or

(ii)

plus, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (if any) on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption.

“Par Call Date” means July 9, 2026.

In the event that (i) the closing of the Merger has not occurred on or prior to December 22, 2021 (provided that, if the termination date of the Merger Agreement is extended, this date will also be extended to the same extended termination date, but in no case will this date be extended beyond June 22, 2022), (ii) the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that it will not pursue the consummation of the Merger or (iii) the Merger Agreement has been terminated without the consummation of the Merger (each, a “special mandatory redemption event”), the Company will be required to redeem the Notes in whole at a special mandatory redemption price (the “special mandatory redemption price”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest on the principal amount of the Notes from and including the Issue Date, or the most recent date to which interest has been paid on such series of Notes, whichever is later, to, but not including, the special mandatory

Exhibit A-8

redemption date (as defined below). Upon the occurrence of a special mandatory redemption event, the Company will promptly (but in no event later than 10 business days following such special mandatory redemption event) cause written notice to be delivered electronically or mailed, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder at its registered address (such date of notification to the Holders, the “redemption notice date”). The notice will inform Holders that the Notes will be redeemed on the third business day following the redemption notice date (such date, the “special mandatory redemption date”) and that all of the outstanding Notes will be redeemed at the special mandatory redemption price on the special mandatory redemption date automatically and without any further action by the Holders of the Notes. At or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day immediately preceding the special mandatory redemption date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee funds sufficient to pay the special mandatory redemption price for the Notes. If such deposit is made as provided above, the Notes will cease to bear interest on and after the special mandatory redemption date.

The Company may, subject to compliance with applicable law, at any time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise.

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for an equal aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal hereof and, subject to the provisions hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of any Indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any incorporator as such, or against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or through the Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any penalty or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof.

Terms used herein that are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture.

The laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof) shall govern this Note.
